THE OEAEITY CONGEST.

A Large Auchance and a Splendid Entertainment. The charity concert at the Y. M. C. A. hall last evening was a decided success and resulted in the netting of a neat sum for worthy poor ns well as in the pleasurable entertainment of all present. The talent was first class and every score was heartily applauded by the appreciative audience. The programme was opened by the Washburn Symphony Club in two pretty numbers followed by an encore as Veil rendered. It was one impersonator's evening, however, and the honors were carried away by Prof. Ray, the violinist, and Stanton Wilhite, the mimic. Prcf. Ray is a better violinist than he is a mesmerist and his performance brought down the house. His imitation on the violin ot the lining of the hymn by a country preacher, the congregatiohal singing and the prayer was certainly fine as well as new and original. His other pieces were also excellent. Mr. Wilhite mado his first appearance as a mimio and cannot be too highly spoken of. The majority of his impersonations were the counterpart in sound of what they represented and when in the couise of theFourth of July celebration he fired the sky rocket, the small boys and tne old ladies in front involuntarity dodged the shower of sparks. Perhaps his best representation was that of tho street corner phonograph, in its soul stiring rendition of "Robin, I'll Be True To Thee," as sung by some bowery queen. The bag pipe presented by Messrp.Wilhite and Nicholson also made a decided hit. Miss

Bessie Nicholson'B recitation was heartily encored and she responded with James

Misses Kline and Dice was best features of the

not only for its charitable work but for

providing so excellent an entertainment for the Crawfordsville public. HOSB

Trader Jim.

Jim Watson, who by the way is no connection or friend of James H. Wutaon, distinguished himself again last night and was extinguished this morning in consequence. Watson, familiarly known as "Hosa trader Jim," appears to have conceived a violent dislike for his sister in-law, who occupies the same residence with Wesley Foster, the popular colored cook, and who is represent-

ed as being a most engaging and oblig- I ^ree

ing young lady. Last night the festive

some fancied misdemeanor. He attacked castle Foster but was finally repulsed by the redoubtable Wesley. Before leaving, however, he threw two Hat irons against the head ot the devoted gallant which fairly peeled that decorative member of the body. Jim was fined by the Mayor this morning for his pleasure.

Eevival ServiceB.

Mr. J. H. Sayler, the singing evangelist, commenced service at he Methodist church last evening. He is a master of song and. as a solo singer he greatly pleased the audience. Meeting each evening this week, service commences at 7 p. m., first half hour devoted to song service.

Wreck on the Big lour.

Last night at Veedersburg there was a freight wreck on the Big Four road which delayed traffic until nine o'clook this morning. A car axle broke and the cars were piled up promiscuously. It was not until late this morning that the track was cleared. The train crew escaped without injury.

A Sleep Session.

The city council m§t last evening with neither member of the first ward present and transacted some unimportant business.

A petition to open the alley between Main and Market from Water to Morgan street was referred.

Morris Karle was allowed $7.20 for extra graveling on Anderson street. The question of putting a light at the north end of the Monon station was laid over.

It was decided to remove the large tree which at Boone street blocks the alley which runs between Main and Pike streets.

The board of public improvements was instructed to sell the old lamp posts.

Precepts were ordered issued against the property abutting on Haw street for improvements.

Lawyer Finch, of Chicago, was allowed $10 for a deposition in the case of the city case of the city against Braden.

The city attorney reported that the city had been awarded a verdict of $000 against H. S. Braden.

In reading the accounts a joke was played on uncle Wm. Vanaxsdall, the watchdog of the treasury. One item was read "Chewing gum, 75 cents." In an instant the statesman from the second ward was on his feet sawing the air like a wind mill in a cyclone. The rest howled with laughter and the joke was finally explained.

Both From Indiana and Both i'rom Orawfordsville. A Washington special to the Indianapolis News says it is talked among Indiana Republicans thht if Senator Allen, of the State of Washington, failed to secure sufficient votes to elect, his name would be withdrawn and Congressman Wilson substituted. The deci ed interest taken by Hoosier Republicans in this election is due to the feet that both Senator Allen and Congressman Wilson formerly lived at Crawfordsville.

A Bis! Poultry Show.

Do we want it? Does Crawfordsville want to have the biggest poultry slow in Indiana? Ben Myers, our chicken fancier, seys that if we want it bad enough we can have it next fill. That is we can have it if we will raise a guarantee fund of from $300 to $500. There has been some talk about this matter among a few of our enterprising merchants and they think the plan is not only woithy of consideration but entirely feasible. It has been suggested that if a guarantee fund is started now, each merchant put bis name down for at least $15, there will be no difficulty in making the thing a succoss. Merchants think about this. On to morrow evening

THE

of those who have already signified their willingness to help the. untorprise financially.

WOES OF A MAN SHOPPER.

A Pitiful Spectacle Which Affords Ainusftmerit for Salesgirls at Times.

There is nothing more pitiful to the feminine beholder than a man fraa tically endeavoring to buy a gift for his wife or sweetheart. His intentions are of the best, but his knowledge is so limited that an unscrupulous saleswoman can palm oil some wretched object on to him if she simply assures him that it is quite the thing. "She Is a woman, theref01 she ought to know," he argues with himself, and nine times out of ten buys whatever she advises, regardless of color, form or expense. Now with these trusting and lamb-like creatures roaming about at largo at this 6eason It behooves the salespeople to be especially honest and not bring down upon the innocent head of the giver the wrath of some fair recipient who discovers instead of a modish and elegant present a passe offering that has laid on the shelf unsold sincc last Christmas. Some men swagger in with a know-it-all expression, which, however, deceives no one, when they aslr, with a very important air, to bo conducted to "the aigrettes, please," and on their arrivai at the counter where these are sold do not know an aigrette from an oyster patty.

From a long and trying period of observation of tho ignorance they man! fest on a shopping tour, the Philadelphia Times lias about come to the conclusion that the only places where a man can bo allowed to roam with perfect safety are the llorists, the confec tloners and the jewelers. They can't go very far wrong in either of these establishments, and it is much better to buy with an air of certainty articles that are sure to be all right than to get into a dry goods store where they are at the mercy of the girls behind the counters and become 1 ho victims of their own credulity. All ye men who mean to give gifts such as are found in the emporiums whero feminine toggery does most largely hold forth bo wise, give the money to a woman friend who cannot be bulldozed by salesgirls, and confine thy purchases to jewelry, bonbons and flowers.

is a curi.ni?. feature of the FVerch foreign legion, which has been doing some hard fighting in Dahomey, that it is composed of social outcasts from all parts of Kuropc. Men \vho have held prominent, positions in the German, Italian and other armies, but who have been cashiered for various offenses, may be found serving sis privates in the legion. The discipline is remarkably the men are notorious as desperate fighters whose courage has been proved in many campaigns. Anyone who loves fighting may get his fill in the legion, as it is called upon more frequently than- any other branch of the French military service and the work is always dangerous.

STRANGE BELIEFS.

Something About the Chinese Thisry Evolution.

The Chinese have as odd ideas about the earth and the origin of man as they have about other things with which they, as well as ourselves, are better acquainted. According to their way of viewing the matter, the rocks of the earth are the bones of the Divine body the soil is the flesh, the metals, the nerves and veins. The tides, winds, rains, clouds, as well as frost and dew, are caused by the respirations, pulsations, exhalations, etc., of this seeming inanimate body. Originally, according to their idea, the mountains rose to the skies and the waters of the seas and oceans covered the mountains to their tops. .At that time there was no life in the Divine body, except the Divine life. By degrees the waters subsided and small herbs began to grow, and, in the lapse of immense cycles of time, theso herbs developed into strong shrubs and trees. As the body of man, unwashed for years, breeds vermin, uo the mountains, unlaved by tho seas, bred worms and insects, greater creatures always developing from the lesser. In tho course of untold ages beetles becamc turtles, earthworms became serpents, and highflying insects became birds. Mice developed into wildcats, and the wildcats into tigers the mautis was by degrees transformed into an ape, and some of tho apes were finally born hairless. A hairless ape playing with two flints accidentally kindled afire by striking them together.

With the (ire thus obtained he cooked food and the eating of food thus prepared made him more strong and intellectual than his fellow ape. With all their faults, asks tho Philadelphia Press, who will say that the Chinaman's theories of evolution are not as reasonable as some of the ideas advancsd by the Darwinians?

WOMEN IN INDIA.

Moatlf oj

Feminine Dre» There Constat. Jewelry.

According to a recent writer who has been there the native women of India seem to array themselves mostly in jewelry and modesty. He says: "Tho Indian lady is loaded down with silver and gold jewelry and precious stones. Her ears have many rings in them, some so large that they reach her shoulders. Next comes the nose with rings large enough for a bracelet. Occasionally the lips are also ornamented. "Then she has several necklaces of costly pearls, armlets, wristlets and anklets, and innumerable rings on most of her Angers and toes, including the thumbs and great toe3. An Indian lady's jewelry was weighed on one occasion, and it was found to turn the scales at thirty-five pounds. "Tho conventional dress for ladies consists of apiece of silk or gorgeouslycolored cotton about Ave yards long and half a yard wide. This is wrapped about the body in the following way: One end is circled round tho waist once or twice, then the remainder is thrown over the left shoulder, leaving the right breast, both arms and logs bare. The cloth rcaches nearly to her knees. "It may thus be seen that she is

dressed for tho purpose of displaying her ornaments and comfortably dressed for the climate."

BISCHOF is offering some grand bargains in blankets and oomforta.

Many a life has been lost because of the taste of codliver* oil.

If Scott's Emulsion did nothing more than take that taste away, it would save the lives of some at least of those that put off too long the means of recovery.

It does more. It is halfdigested already. It. slips through the stomach as if by stealth. It goes to make strength when cod-liver oil would be a burden.
