A Great Newspaper.

The tlag which waved above the ollice of tho Now York Tribune in November, 1884, has never been lowered on one particular issue, namely tho Protection of American Agriculture and Industry. Tho Tribune has never yielded an inch on that question. Last year it engaged Roswell G. Ilorr, of Michigan, to devote himself in the columns of the paper to an entertaining, masterly and effective fight f(Tr tho Republican view of the Tariff, Reciprocity, Coinage, tho Currency and tho new projects of the Farmers' Alliance. Tho 'Tribune has made a brilliant and instructive light on these questions and it now announces for 18'J2, that Mr. Ilorr will continue right on in his work through tho columns of tho paper during 1892. There is no doubt that tho Tribune will, in tho Presidential year,be a most valuable help to every Republican who wants to imform himsolf on Republican doctrine, and to Democrats nnd Alliance men, it will he tho best national book of reference, for an understanding as to what the Republicans intend. Two pages a week on framing and ono for Union veterans, are printed regularly.

•:^A WAYNDTOWN WEDDING.

Uucje Tom Courtney and His Divorced Wife Concludo to Try it Over Again. Well, of all things! Tom Courtnoy, of Waynetown, actually came to town yesterday and took out licenso to marry Hebecca M. Stivers, from whom lie was divorced two or three months ago. Rebecca it will be remembered, sued for divorce and 815,000 alimony, but finally compromised on divorce and $400. Sho gave Mr. Courtney a terrible raking over at the trial and pictured him to tho court as tho vo^ry personification of all that was mean and wicked. It wat» probably as severe a roasting as any man ever received in the court room of

Montgomery county from his wife, ami Judge Snyder actually blushed as he granted tho decree. It was granted all the same and the sturdy denizens of Waynetown settled back with a vawn to onjov tlioir wonted quietness and peace. Several weeks ago, however, it was noticed that Tom, who by the way is an old gentlemen on the shady side of life, wits again Bparking his divorced wife. Ho was old enough to know what he was about, but for all that tongues rat tied away at a furious rate, and if there is anything in the old saw of people's ears burning when others gossip about them, the ears of Tom ami Becky must have fairly fried and sizzled. Little cared they, however, and tho cooing courtship went on swimmingly. The course of true love ran on smoothly and Tom's passionate kisseB were echoed by Rebecca's succulont occulations. Tom took out tho license yesterday and now they have once more united hearts and fortunes, Rebecca's 8400 alimony again finding a haven of relugo in the family sock with the 814,(!00 she didn't get

Verily, the ways of these married people are past finding out and like .Tosli Billings wo would say to the rising genera tion, "Don't."

The Atheuian.

The Athenian Society was rharmin ly entertained yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Dr. Ristine, on west Wabash nvenue. The paper was read by Miss Mary Hovey. and was entitled "The Decadence of the Puritan Spirit.' The subject was handled in a thorough manner and caused some animated dis cussion. Mrs. Blair led the convorsa tion, taking as her topic "Our I'imni grants." The matter was discussed at considerable length and some radical nnd pronounced opinions elicited from the ladies wl had evidently come pre pared to cope with the foreign element, Mrs. A. B. -Anderson led in the discussion of tho current events a most enter taining manner after which tho socitty was favored by a talk from Mm. Virginia C. Meridith. the "practical ladyfanner,'' of Cambridge City, who was present as a visitor and who charmed all by her ready wit and apt remarks.

Struck it Rich.

he Speed boys seem to have struck it rich at .Toplin, Mo., in the lead fields.

This is considered remarkably good and old miners stato that it will pay big money.

The Wabuxh made its first appearance yesterday. ft is edited entirely by the Senior class and barring tho spring poetry which smacks of Smail's pills, tho magazine a great improvement on its checkered past. Mean personals are omitted, tho editorials do not roast the faculty as of yore, and everything seems to have some style and self-re-spect about it. If tho II nbaah continues as it begins it will bo worthy of patronage and what is more to tho point, will get it.
