Birdie Wants Blood.

Birdie Corey has entered suit to force George Nielest to come into court and pay her $400 judgment she got against her husband Joe, who is deputy scraper at Mr. Nielest's tonsorial bazar. Joe was to have paid the money in instalments but wholly failed to live up to the order of the court. Birdie is determined to have the money and accordiogly goes

Oard .Party.

Mr. and Mrs. Harry Law entertained i]uiie a large number of friends last even'ng at their home on west Main street. The amusement of the evening was progressive euchre and the prizes awarded were very beniitiful. Mrs. Henry Sloan won ladies' first prize, and Mrs. A. S. Miller, second. George Graham won the gentlemen's first prize and Fred Brown second. A choice colla tion was served during the evening and the affair proved a pieasaut one in every respect.

All Over a ?ox,

The grand jury is investigating a case which might as well have been left alone, like a sleeping dog. Some time since couple of the Ronk boys south of New Ross shot a fox on the farm of Poke McCreary. They had hardly picked him up when they learned that he was being pursued by a party of fox hunters from Hendricks county. Thay quickly gave the animal away therefore and ^nt homo. D. Ryneason, CaBh Smith and several other hunters followed them and it is oaid gave disgraceful exhibition of of profanity. The Ronks have placed the matter before the grand jury and about twenty witneeses have waded in through the mud to tell what they know.

Delightful Hyperbole.

The following delicious little item of news is being published broadcast over the land: "Dr. George McClellan, wide ly known as 'Diamond Dick,' the Indian doctor, distinguished himself iu Crawfordsville by putting to Wight the entire police force. The long-haired doctor got drunk and threw Landlord Bur roughs, of the Nutt Hotel, into a cistern endeavoring to drown him like a rat The police were sent for and a large squad soon arrived. The doctor drew his revel vers and did a little fancy shooting by way of knocking buttons off their coats. Terrorized, they all lied. Dr. Dick remained in possession of the hotel and bar, and as yet is as jree as the little birds.

'Sonng Emmet,

Young J. K. Emmet, son of an illns trioas sire, did his level best in the laudable endeavor of keeping green the memory of one of the greatest, geniuses in his line on t^e 6tage at the Olympic last night. So far, it is to be understood that young Empiet's principal claim for continnance on the boards is that his father was his father. But the young man has a stout heart, supreme ealf confidence, ability to work hard, and feels the 6pur of ambition, and these attributes will, aa the seasons roll by, undoubtedly a tend him handsomely. Fritz in Ireland is his play thiB week. Praise for the stage management must be given unbegrudgingly. All here is put on with discriminating care, and the general effect produced is excellent. The company, too, does not 'permit the chief character to stand out like some sole towor on a plain, and thus mauy otherwise incongruities are nicely toned down. The young man was cordially welcomed last night, and will remain wish us all week.—St. Louis Star Sayiwjs.

MOM ON DIVIDENDS,

A Eeceiver Asked and Startling Charges Made. William j. Craig and other minority stockholders of the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago railroad company want a receiver appointed. Craig states that he is the owner ot a number of shares of the capital stock of the company and claims dividends. The net earnings ot the road for the past two years, it is said, have been §1,700,000, upon which, it is alleged, no dividends have been declared to the small stockholder. He asks that the money bo paid into court .and turned over to the receiver, if one is appointed, and that the receiver take charge of all the property of the company and operate the road. He says that the company is an Indiana corporation, organized in 1842, under a special charter which requires the election annually of 13 directors, but he asserts that no election has been held since 1891 and that the persons now acting us directors are holding their positions unlawfully. Mr. Craig alleges that in January, 1803, statements were published to the effect that a large amount of surplus funds would be divided, as well as the future earnings. This was not done, but, instead, the McHugh bill was put through th: legislature. It went into effect Feb. 22, and gives the directors and high officials of the road the power to select a large amount of common stock held by themselves and friends and to surrender the same in exchange for .preferred stock, thereby leaving the minority stockholders in the background. The courts will be asked to declare the McHugh law unconstitutional and all acts done under it void.

Dr. B. J3. Briegs.

The following correspondence from LaCreBonta in the Herald of LosAngelos, Cftl., will be of interest to the hundreds of friends of the late Dr. Briggs, in this city:

A shadow ot sorrow is cast over our whole community by the death of Dr. 13. B. Briggs, on the 15fch of February. Though he had been ill with consumption for some time, when the fioal summons cutno, no one but himself seemed prepared for his death but he had indeed "set his house in order" for all time, having put all his business in California into the hands of his nephew, Mr. George Crane, of Ventura, with absolute power to act, and everything was arranged to save complication and trouble. He met death with a calmness which no one else could summon. He will be greatly missed from our midst, as he has long been the mainspring of the entire colony, coming hero before any of the present residents, with one or two exceptions, and, together with Messrs. Children' and Lowell of Los Angeles, buying most of this valley, which was named "Cresoenta" by Dr. Briggs, from the crescent shape of the mountains back of it they subdivided it into 10-acre lots, developed water and laid out the townsite. Dr. Briggs afterward bought out his partners, made other large purchases and conducted the enterprise alone.

He had always subscribed largely to all public enterprises, giving 10 acres of land to the church organization, besides generously contributing money whenever asked he gave two and a half acres on the townsite for a park, set out trees, built the fountain basin, etc., gave two town lots for a store, several lots for a hotel, besides many more gifts for the good of the place. He had recently finished a fine large reservoir for storing the water for the townsite. He had looked forward to the good of the place in the future, and disliking to be thanked, yet his monument is in the hearts of those to whom ho has been kind and helpful, and will endure ,-forever. His fnneral, at his home, The Terrace, was attended by nearly all the residents of the place, and his body, at his express wish, was taken to Los

AngeleB

and cre­

mated at the Rosedale cemetery. Dr. Briggs was well known in Los Angeles, as well as in this locality, having done business there for many years, lie left a wife and one daughter, (who is now in Persia ), besides a step-son and daughter, the latter of whom was with him at the time of his death. J. H.

vf1 -v" Has Kokomo Sized Up. The only Sam Jones is now in Iiokomo and the following extract from one of his sermons shows that ho sized up the town:

Some people think they'll get to heayen just because there's where ttey want to land. They imagine that heaven is a sort of rendezvous for dead beats and llea-bitten old hypocrites, where they can sit down in the shade of a tree and have a good place to spit. In some places the grand jury is indicting the card-players. Why don't you do it in Kokomo? Your ministers would find their congregations all in jail and would have to go there to do their preaching. It's come to a pretty pass when professing Christians are outof the penitentiary by a scatch. You old flea-bitten blatherskites and hypocrites you. Too many church deacons have demijohns at home. What sort of animals aro you? Such people will be in hell before their feet aw cold. A mean church member is the maaneet man on earth. You godless old hounds, hypocrites and sinners. It your eggs are as rotten as the town I don't want to bo egged. You can throw ancient hen fruit at me, but don't give me any ot your spoiled Kokomo fruit.. The devil lias finished his work in Iiokuiuo and gone on. Talk about the niggers of the South being abused. The nigger is all right. It will soon be blackberry time and after that comes the water melon season. This will last till 'possum time, and the nigger will be right in it for the balance of the year.

A Treat For the Ladles. Miss Poole, of New York City, representing Messrs. Foster, Paul Co., kid glove importers,will be at my store from Mar.13 to 21 to fit all gloves to the hand and show you the new styles for Easter wear. This will be the Indies' best opportunity to get a good fit and latest styles. All invited to call on Miss Poole. Respectfully,

Lofw Bischof.

Owen G. Wilhite.

Owen Goffney Wilhite was born in Oldham county, Kentucky, April 20, 1817. He came to Crawfordsville in 1824 and has made this city his home up to the day of his death. When he came here, seven log cabins marked the spot where the city now stands. He was indeed a pioneer and had watched the growth of the city with evident interest. His mind was a store house of interesting incidents connected with the early settlers and settlements. On April 1st, 1839, he was married to Elizabeth Babcox. She was the mother of his four children, John, Alice, Florence and Frank. In January, 1866, he was married to Minerva Hazleton, the wife who now survives him. He had a passion for music and belonged to the first brass band ever organized in Crawfordsville. He continued in this orgrnization until the hand of father time began to rest too heuvily upon him. His love for mnsio never diminished, however. He united with the Methodist church Ootober 20, 1889, while in full posession ot his mental facilities anil believing he was doing his duty. He was a man of great morality and was sturdy, upright and honest in all his connections with his fellow men. He

quiet and unob­

trusive in manner, with kindly thoughts for all. His life has been one well spent. We can truly lay he has lived and lived well, for— "IIo ir.ost lives

DIES A VERY OLD MAN. We often hear of men reaching their nineties, but very seldom is the age of one hundred gained. A careful estimate on reliable authority indicates that the number reaching ninety would be able to live one hundred years had they in middle age used the Los Angeles Raisin Cured Prune Laxative to give vitality to the digestive organs and keep the bowels open. It is purely vegetable. Sold by Moffett & Morgan, druggists, and reoommended by all as the best family medicine.

Slcln IHneases,

What spectacle is a more disgusting than that of a man or woman with askin disease which shows itself in pimples or blotches on hands, arms, face and neck? It is simply Impure Llood. See what Brandroth's Pills did for a chronic set George Chapman, Pincening, Mich., says: "For four years I was in the Mounted Infantry in the U. S. army, residing at that time principally in Texas. Almost all of that time had a chronic skin disease, characterized by an eruption over the entire surface of my legs and thighs, arms and chest. The doctors termed it eezma. I had given up all hopes of ever being cured, when Brandreth's Pills were recommended to mo. I concluded to try them, and 1 have thanked God daily since then that I did so. I used them for about three months, and by that time, was completely cured and have never had any trouble since."

To take or not to tako: that is tho question. Whether 'tis better for a mun to suffer The pangs and torments of indigestion, Or something take, and. in its taking,end them. Shakespeare didn't say that, but vory likely he would have said something similar, if he were living in the l'.lth century, when so many suiter untold agonies from indigestion. Of course bo would liavo gone on to say that a man must bo a fool not to take the "something" which would put an end to the "pangs and torments" spoken of, if he could get it. Now it is a fact that weakened, impoverished blood brings on indigestion, which is tho cause of dyspepsia, constipation-a poisoned condition of tho whole system-and it is a fact, aWo, that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will so purify the blood and enrich it that all the weakened organs are revitalized and strengthened.
