Change in Method of Collection. Indiana Natural and Illuminating (lag Com pany—Urawfordsvl 11c Division.
To insure more prompt collection of bills this -Company has selected a nnmll ber of yearly contracts on which it wi collect monthly in advance, instead of quarterly, beginning with the first day of October." Consumers whose accounts will bo collected monthly hereafter will receive a notice to that effect on that date staling the amount of the first payment. After October no notice will be sent either to consumers wilh monthly contracts or to those with yearly contracts payable monthly. It "is presumed that they know that the regular monthly payment is due between the first and tenth ot each month and that they will be expected to come to the office and make the payment within the time fixed by their contract.
No change of rate is contemplated or made by this change, merely change in the manner of collection, which makes the payments smaller and more frequent. Any customer may pay as many months in advanoe as they may wish, but one month in advance must IHI paid by the tenth of each month or the gas will be shut off promptly on the eleventh without further notice.
Consumers paying quarterly will receive the regular notice as usual. Consumers delinquent at this date are notified to make payment in full by October 1, as no customers will be supplied after that date for gas in any previous month. John MoAijEvy,

The Oontroversey Ended.
Hotel Teeoahdicn, LaPortk, Ind., Sept. 10, 1893.—Whereas there appeared in the Bnttle Ground Hejtository of October, 1892, and March, 1893, statements that I had sued John A. Griffin, administrator ot the estate of David Roudabash, for funeral services, and as the records of the court appear as it a suit had really been brought, I now make this statement: I filed a olaim against said estate at the solicitation of the friends of David Kuudabush and the administrator with no thought or intent of bringing a suit, the administrator stating that the olaim would be allowed. I hold a written statement, affirming the above, from the administrator which also states jithat by an oversight the o'.uiui was not allowed, but went on the trial docket, and that he, the administrator, urged the court to allow the above claim. I never intended a suit and greatly regret having filed the claim and the embarrassments that have grown out of the affair. In accordance with an agreement entered into I make this statement to be published in the Battle Ground Repository with a statement made by Geo. Chamberlain, und thereby drop the whole matter between Mr. Chamberlain and myself.

Sept. 10, 1893.—This is to certify that certain charges in two separate issues of the Battle Ground Repository were made against the Rev. Geo. W. Switzer. Particularly one as to the suing for funeral servioeB thul an investigation was held at Brazil by seven ministers called by the Presiding Elder, and from the evi dence offered the verdict of not guilty was unanimously found. I accept this verdict and agree that the whole matter be dropped, as well na all other matters between Mr. Switzer and myself growing out thereof.

A Lamentable Disput.fi.
There
shpius
to ba trouble on foot in
the colored Baptist church, resultant upon the abasement by the pastor,Elder Miller, of Robarl Hopkins, who for yearn has been one of the zealous and useful members of the Hock. It appears that Mr. Hopkins is a ready reader and in terpreter of the Holy Writ and his interpretation doeB not always coincide with that ot Elder Miller. Mr. Hopkins has been one of the prominent teachers in the Sunday school but last Sunday was deposed by the Elder. A regular election was not held but Elder Miller arose and nominating those he wished in office called upon the electors to put them through. He deolared in an excited manner that brother Hopkins was too ignorant to teach and was wholly incapable of managing a class. He went farther and stated in ctear round terms that he did not propose to have an ignoramus teaching in his Sunday sohool. He thought Crawfordsville pos Biased of the meunest and most contemptible class of citizens he ever saw and he did not propose to forward this st ite of affairs by allowing ignorant .lien 11 teach in Sunday school. Elder Miller w.ie answered by Mr. Hopkins in a most earnest munnor and things were quite interesting until the adjournment of Sunday school. The eud is not yet. Mr. Hopkins proposes to stand up and see the thing through.
Prof. Olmpman'8 ttoading.
The Crawfordsville public uppreoiate a good elocutionary entertainment and therefore if preparing to give Prof. James M. Chapman, the new professor of Oratory in Wabash College, a warm reception Friday night at Center ohurch. Prof. Chapman is said to be particularly gifted in rendering humorous selections und his programme will be largely made up of such pieces. There will be one Shakespearean selection also.
Stag Party.
Postmaster Bonnell was thirty-five years old yesterday and in honor of the event his wife planned a pleasant surprise party upon him and it was carried out to a nicety. About twenty of hiB gentlemen friends descended upon him and a most delightful evening was passed by all present. A sumptuous repast was spread and the favors to the guests were tin stags artistically designed. The surprise party was a success in all its details.
—The Monon train crews are armed and a special guard goes with every night train, onrrying express matter, armed with a Wincheeter repeating rifie and a brace of pistols. The express messengers on all trains are required to keep their revolvers strapped to them, ready for inBtant use. These precautions have been taken because of the recent frequent train robberies. It won't be safe to approach an express car under pretext after night.

VAN0E 8TKEET IS A GO.
One Free Telephone—Sewer Troubles Again—Oarbolio Aoidiin the Drinking Trough—A Bhort Oounoil Meeting.
The oounoil seldom meets but what it has a deal with some trouble caused by a lack ot a sewer system. In the midst of its deliberations last night that august liody was interrupted by the entrance of a man who announced that owing to a defective drain the cellar of John Shue's Union block was halt fall of water. The Mayor urged that the matter be quickly attended to or the oity might be involved in a damage suit. Another thing sewerage would relieve if not altogether prevent is the nuisance caused by the fish stands. Mr. Myers reported that he had received several vigorous oomplainte in regard to the fish stand jat Poole's grocery corner. The owner had been disinfecting with oarbolio acid and in some way the water in the watering trough near by has beoome so tainted that horses refuse to drink it. The oouncil ordered Marshal Brothers to remove the fish stand to some other place.
The question of opening Vance street oame up and the discussion was eagerly taken in by the citizens of that neighborhood, nearly all of whom are anxious for an outlet there. Mr. Smith said it would oust probably $800 or $1,000 and that the property on either side of the deep part of the cut would be left in bad shape yet the Board of Public Improvements were ready to make a favor able report if the oounoil would act on it. He and Mr. VanarsdAll were in favor but Mr. Cumpbell was opposed. Mr. Vanorsdall was rather inclined to think that it would be better to put the work off until spring but Mr. Myers insisted that it be done right away. He thought it would oost lees than $800 for the reason that the dirt could be sold to Miss Louisa Krugg who wanted to fill up two lots on west Pike street, and that when the cut is made plenty of good gravel will be found right at hand. Finally the oity attorney prepared a resolution calling out the Oity Commissioners on October 19 to assess benefits and damages. There was ulso talk of opening High street.
John M. Schullz asked to be reimbursed for part of a sewer 100 feet long he had constructed at his own expense through his west Muin street property inasmuoh as the rest of the sewer was built with public money. Referred.
City Attorney Whittington reported that in the case of Mrs. Busenbark against the city for damages in opening Hooum street the court had sustained the city's demurrer to the complaint and the plaintiff would either have to appeal or give up the suit.
In the absence of Mr. Campbell the attorney did not read the ordinance regulating connections with public sewers which he had prepared at- Mr. Campbell's snggestion. He did, however, advance the opinion that parties who had already connected could not be disconnected.
A resolution requesting the Central Union Telephone Company to furnish one free telephone was pussed. It will be placed in the city building. It the list of subscribers reaches seventy-five another free telephone is to be put in and if nt any time the oity wants more they are to be furnished at a discount ot 25 per cent. During the discussion of this resolution it was developed that several of the oounoil thought our present system only a little better than none at all.
W. P. Stewart was allowed the money on the west Pike street sewer after his work is approved by the Oity Engineer.
The Treasurer's report showed the balance on hand to be $3,891.91. The Clerk's report showed that he collected licenses as follows: Liquor, $750 peddler, $14 express, $30 haok, $156 dray, $35.
The report ot the electrio light euperintendent showed the receipts during September to be $614.53 and the expenditures to be $947.49. The oost pi light tor September was $2.13.
Oot Judgment.
The suit of Will Coleman against Doc Britton tor damages from trespass was tried before 'Squire Overton yesterday. The roll of Britton's chickens that root ted in the Oolemnn barn was duly called and the pug dog and polled Angus rooster gave damaging testimony against eaoh other. At the oonolusion of the evidence and arguments the 'Squire found for the plaintiff, assessing his damages at $15 and coU. The case will be appealed.
Ladies' Tea.
Last evening at her home on south Washington street Miss Josie Stilwell very charmingly entertained about thirty of her lady friends at tea. The affair was a decidedly pleasunt one and the most lavish hospitality was dispensed. Miss Stilwell will entertain again this evening.

ARTIFICIAL PEARLS.
The Highly IngenloilH Clilnme Method or Producing Gems to Suit. The processes by which the Chinese produce artificial pearls are as remarkable as they are Ingenious, Rays the Washington Star. This business constitutes quite important industry. It is confined tg two villages iu the northern provinoe of Chihkiang, which is in a silk-producing region. In the months of May and June largo quantities of mussels are brought in baskets from a lake thirty miles distant, and the biggest of the tnollusks are selected for the operation that is to be performed.
Into the shell of each mussel Is introduced a number of small objects which it is Intended that the bivalve shall coat with the pearly substance it secretes. Sometimes little pills of earth are used. Such pellets are made of mud, taken from the bottom of water courses, dried and powdered with the juice of camphor-tree seeds. In the same way arc employed diminutive images, usually of Buddha, but often of fishes. They are made of lead, cast very thin by pouring the molten metal upon a board which is carved with the impressions.
To place these nuclei inside of the mussels is a process of no little delicacy. The shell is usually opened with a small instrument of mothcr-of-pearl, and the mantle of the animal if gently lifted. At the same time the images or pil]£ are laid in two rows beneath the mantle. The shell is then permitted to close. Finally the mollusks arc deposited in canals or pools five or six inches apart, at depths of from two to five feet in lots of 5,000 to 60,000.
In November the mussels are collected and opened. The animals are removed from the shells and the pellets or Images are detached by a sharp knife. By this time they are fastened tightly to the inner surface of the shells and have become covered with a coating of nacre. The next process is to cut away the matrloes of earth or lead about which the artificial pearls have formed. Into the cavity thus made in each one is poured melted yellow resin, and the orifice is artfully covered over by a piece of mother-of-pearl.
The pearls formed about the earthen pellets are flat on the bottom and in shape are somewhat.more than hemispheres. They have much of the luster and beauty of the real gems, and are sold at a rate so cheap as to be procurable by all who care to possess them. They are employed to a considerable extent by jewelers, who set them In tiaras and various ornaments of female attire. Those made from Images are employed as ornaments and amulets on the caps of children. A few shells are sent to market with the pearls adhering, for sale to the curious or superstitious.
DOGS QLT BORED.
How Man's Example Hat Demoralized the Faithful Animal. Some domestic animals can be very much bored Indeed, says the London Times. This capacity seems to vary from the intelligence of the victim and with the closeness of hiB relations to mankind. We may well blush, for instance, when we think how man has demoralized the dog. We have taught the dog to be borfed. Wo have corrupted him so much by our society that he can no longer depend upon himself, or even on other dogs for entertainment. A cow, it may be boldly said, never thinks of being bored. Give her plenty of grass and the company of another cow by way of gossip, give her a stream to stand in, and that cow Is happy, as happy as the Buddha himself. No murmur escapes her lips, no glance of discontent shows in her placid eyes.
The dog, on the other hand, is always craving for society. A dog has been know to leave its master's house and betake Itself to that of a richer neighbor. who saw more company and entertained the great. To please a dog something must always be going on. To him the whirl of gayety means life. He is notoriously incapable of even taking a walk by himself. He detests solitude. He very seldom even takes a walk with another dogi never, perhaps, except where there is a neighboring wood with rabbits In it The dog lives for sooiety and sport, the sure proof of an idle and ill-occupied mind.
Nature, landscape, In spite of the Duke of Argyll, is nothing to the dog. Within doors he Is always asking to be lot into a room and then asking to be let out of it if he thinks there is better —that is, more dissipated and frivolous —company elsewhere. The dog who Is accidentally shut out of his master's house p.t night howls till ho is let in again, usually next morning with the milk. He keeps all the parish awake, but never manages to waken his owner. The cause of all this disturbance is simply ennui and a sense of social neglect. The dog could be quite comfortable in the garden, but he feels that he is "out of it," and gives as much trouble as a person who is asking to be asked to a party.
In a state of natuic it is most improbable that the dog had these offensive instincts. A fox, a wolf Is never bored when not in confinement he hunts, he sleeps, he plaj-s with his cubs. Probably savpn-es arc never bored at a corroborcc you do not note men leaning against doom, or, rather, tree trunks, with an air of unspeakable tedium. They waltz In and enjoy themselves. It is clearly civilization which produces ennui, not only in men, woman and children, but even in dogs.
lien's Eff) Oil.
Extraordinary stories arc told of the healing properties of a new oil whioh is easily made from the yolk of hens' eggs. The eggs are first boiled hard, and the yolks are then removed, crushed and placed over a fire, where they are carefully stirred until the substance is on the point of oatching fire, when the oil separates and the oil may be poured off. One yolk will yield nearly two tcaspoonfuls of olL It is In general use among the colonists of south Russia as a means of curing cuts, bruises, etc.
