Ringing a Bell.
I now have a selection of the cow Souvenir Spoons of the birthplace of JAMES (i. BLAINE. ,.
The picture ot old home and birthplace of the great statesman is pronounced a pertect one as well as his likeness on the handle of the spoon, making it a mueb sought after souvenir.
Hon. James Gillespie Htaine was born Jan. 31. 1*30, in the house represented by the engraving in the bowl of tho spoon. His early childhood days were spent about this home, playing in the well kept yard and gazing at the meadows, steamboats on the Monongahala river that so frequently went by. This old home "of the Blaine family was a beautiful one in its day, and now that it is fast going to pieces, everybody will waul something to remember it as the birthplace of such an eminent man. as the history ol to day cannot be repeated during the coming years without the mention of Mr, Blame's name, Call and see them.

Notre Dame has challenged Wabash to a game of foot ball. It would be a good practice game for they have one of the finest teams the west.
Prof. Hoffman has discontinued his field work in surveying because of the cold. His lessons thus far have been quite tough and as long as Herb Thomson's have.
The Wellesley girls have been measured and the average waist measure of the 1,000 students was fonnd to be 24.2 inches.—E.ivltmiyc.
Exactly 1.100 Amherst men have been measured and the average length of arm was computed to be precisely 24.2 inches. —Amherst Stmlcnt.
DePauw and Purdue play foot ball at Lafayette nest Monday an.l a great game is expected. The fare from Cniwfordsville for the round trip will be SO cents. The game will undoubtedly determine the championship for this year as it lies between Purdue and DePauw with the chances in favor of the former.
Foot ball is of ancient and honorable origin. The doughty Romans played it in the palmy day® of the Eternal City and when England was a county of bare hills and wild morasses her rude people adopted the game which came to them with the conquering army of Julius C.esar. It was always a rough game, too, and good old King James I refused to allow the heir apparent to play it saying, "this same foot ball contest is meeter for laming than making able the users thereof."
Pretty Tough On Oora.
Cora Neez was a bright "chipper" sort of a girl who until yesterday fooled around with the boys over at Lebanon. Cora doesn't do so now though, because she is as dead as a salt herring. The other evening 6he went to the meeting "f the young folks society at the church and started home all by herself, but was soon overtaken by an old sweetheart of hers who was gaily smoking a cigarette. Cora, poor creature, knew nothing about cigarettes, as she had been tenderly brought up, and when her lover offered her one to smoko the dear creature grabbed it with the avidity with which the ordinary Lafayette girl accepts a cigar. It was simply delicious, so Cora thought, nnd she actually smoked three before she retired to her virtuous couch. Along about 1 o'clock she began to experience pain in her abdomen and. as the pain caused by the little peach of emerald hue) grew in the abdomen of .Tohnnv Jones, so the pain caused by the cigarette wracked the fair form of tho coy
Cora. She died yesterday and is now at rest. Crawfordsville girls should take warning, for tho other evening it is dead certain that two of our fair once smoked on the way homo from church just the luckless Cora did. They didn't die, either because they used a milder brand or or had possibly been there before.

Special to lie Journal: Con-MBfs, Ohio, Nov. 4.-- The Ohio legislature is Republican by over twenty majority "in tho hotiso and about four or five in the senate. MeKinley's majority is not depreciated by the late returns and Republicans everywhere are celebrating.
How the News Was .Broken. The Republicans of Crawfordsville assembled last ovening in the lodge room of the Morton Republican club to hear the returns while the unwashed hosts of the unterrifled congregated in blocks of five at the Auditor's office to do likewise. Col. Mulberry Hollar was on the throne at the Auditor's olllco and read the returns from New York in loud, stentorian tones and those from Ohio in the plaintive voice of a Jersey cow
mourning for her first born. Tho first telegrams received seemed to have been sent out in a wild sportive manner by some freak in Iowa who was under contract with tho telegraph company to get as many words filed as possible. The local issues in the Iowa election were defined at length together with the names and pedigrees of the several candidates. Col. Sellar waded bravely through half a dozen of these but finally stopped in the middle of a highly exciting list of unknown candidates and exclaimed in a far off meditative., voice: "Oh h-—1, I read all this in the papers a month ago."
It was nine o'clock before news of any satisfactory nature was received nt either of the headquarters and when it became known at the Morton club room that Mclvinley had won, enthusiasm ran high and a congratularv telegram was sent to Major Mclvinley by tho club expressive ot its admiration and delight. The Democrats were rather glum aud merely said thnt they expected it but as their jaws dropped like trap doois all along the line when the returns began to come in from Ohio it is barely pos sible that they didn't expect any such a thing.
The Chrysanthemum Show. An annual event to which every lover of the beautiful looks forward with an interest second to nothing is the Chrysanthemum Show held at Tomlinson Hall every November. Something mote than five years ago the Indiana Florists' Association decided to hold a show of this kind. Each man gave his best effort to make the first a success, and so it was. The pleasure received and the experience added an impulse and tho second show surpassed the first. And so it has gone on, each one succeeding the size, beauty and variety, until year, when upon the evening of November 10th, will open the finest ex hibition of chrysanthemums, designs orchids and cut flowers ever held in the State, if not finer than any thing of the kind ever in the West.
The Extension oi Plum and Pike Streets, The city commissioners went out in Elston's grove this morning with their lunch baskets and engaged in a pleasant little picnic viewing tlie proposed extension of Plum aud Pike streets througl the grove. When all of them had viewed to their hearts content the pleasant little party adjourned to tho Mayor's oflice to assess tho damages and benefits of the property owners whose possessions would bo affected by tho opening. Tho work is being carried on this afternoon and it seems that pretty nearly everybody in a radius of half a mile is going to bo benefitted.
