Mr. Durham's Party.

(iuorgo Durham lust evening entertained about 150 or his Friends in a royal manner at bis bonuiiful suburban home. Mr. Durham was HBsisted in receiving by his cousins, Miss Tinn Tipton, oF Mt. Sterling, Ky., and Miss Florence Durham or this eitv. The large rooms or the mansion were beautifully decorated with potted plants, evergreens, misLletoe and Christmas holly. Splendid music was furnished upon the piano and violin by Eddie Brandknmp and Frank Davis respectively. 'The profusely decorated rooms, the music and the brilliant assemblage or guests in full dress presented it most charming spectacle, and with the sumptuous repast which was served went far toward making one or the most elegant social events Crawfordsville has witnessed for some time. It was the largest party of the season, and the admirable manner in-which the comfort of every individual guests was provided for rcllee'.s the greatest credit upon the entertaining ability of Mr. Durham and his assistants. Social events in Crawfordsville this year have not been so numerous as is usual, but those that have occurred have been or an exceptionally high standard.

"A Turkish Bath."

"Notwithstanding the. raih good sized audience witnessed "A Turkish Jiath" last evening. The piece is a musical comedy anil was well rendered. The company was one of the best that has been here this season. Miss Marie Heath, the little soubretle, made a pronounced hit. She possesses a sweet, childish voice, anil can sing like a bird. Her rendit ion oF "Listen to My Tale oF Woe" and "Won't Yon Come ut and l'hiy was. beautiFul. The songs are old, but the manner in which they were rendered is what took. T. Wilmot

Kckert. Miss Maybelle ]*kert, and"Miss Emma Berg are a so beautiful singers and responded to several encores. Frank Murphy was an exceedingly clover Irish policeman." The above, is what the Michigan City New# of last Wednesday says of the company which will appear at Music llail, Monday.

A REMARKABLE OLD LADY.

Mrs. Martha Slump on the Threshold of a Oentury of Lile, Still Keenly Intelligent and Active.

Crowrordsvillo has two centenarians, and down in tho neighborhood ot Balhincli lives an old lady, who while not quite so old, is nevertheless so spry and so keenly alive "to a sensj or the I situation" that she certainly deserves to rank with our centenarians in Montgomery county's galaxy or notable old folks. Mrs. Martha Stump is tho widow of George Stump, who died over twenty years ago. She is 97 years old, and for I tho past 04 years has lived upon tho identical farm where she now resides with her daughter, Mrs. Jamey Tyler, in tho same house tho family has occupied for over 40 years. After tho death or her husbaud Mrs. Stump parcelled tho farm out among her several child-

Mrs. Stump is tho grandmother of Jar. Stump, of Cohoon .t Fisher's store.

Before ill health came upon him he was ono of tho leaders of tho Republican party in this section and was a devoted believer in the principles of Republicanism. Ho was a thorough good citizen, who lived and died an honest man. loved and respecteil by all who knew him. Besides his immediate family Mr. McConnell leaves three sisters,

Mrs. J. II. Benefiel, Mrs. Lucinda Lynn and Mrs. George Snyder of Jamestown.
