MOT A THINS
Did Two Society Gulls Do to Rev. Julius T. Orton. The following special from WiuewRC, Ind., to the Chicago liccord will be read with peculiar interest in Crawfordsville:
Excitement was high here to-day when it became noised about that the Kev. J. Orton, a Presbyterian minister, had been publicallv horsewhipped on one of the main streets Jof this place. Merl Moss and John Thompson, young sooiety men of this city, attended church Sunday night and were reprimanded by tbe minister during hie sermon for misbehavior and were told to leave the ohurch. This morning as the Rev. Mr, Orton came down to the postoflice for his mail he was confronted by Moae and Thompson, each having a blacksnake whip in hand. These they at once proceeded to use. Seeing his peril, the man of God started on a run down Main street, and at every jump for a 6quare and a half he was cut with the long lashes. The young men were promptly arrested and will be granted a hearing to morrow.
Mr. Orton, tbe victim of the brutal assault, is exceedingl well known here. He spent six years in WabaBh College, graduating with the olass of '90. Since that time he has been a frequent visitor to this city. His friends will be sorry to hear of his mishap. Winamiic is a dangerous place Bnd Mr. Orton should have followed the example of hiB great namesake, Julius Ciusar, and have gone heavilv armed.

AN INTERESTING INTERVIEW.
Jero M. Keeney Talks Blithely of Matters Near to Every Demooratic Heart.
A great deal has been said in the last few days concerning the affairs of Jere M. Keeney anu the prospective sale of Mr. Keeney's paper, the Star, to Thomas E. Scantlin, of the Evansville Courier. Mr. Keeney was seen to day by THE JOURNAL and said: "In view of the rumors thBt you have published with regard to my selling the Star, I wish you to state through the columns of THE JOURNAL that the Star has not been Bold and that I finally and tor all times decline to sell the paper." "Well, Mr. Keenev, Mr. Scantlin has been here and it is rumored made you an offer for the Star." "I declined an offer of $5,000 last night and the paper is not for sale now at any prioe whatever." "Will your paper continue Democratic?" "Yes, it will be Democratic and for Democratic success." "How about Walter Hulett's suit against you "Well, in regard to tbe statement in your paper to the effect that Walter Hulett had sued me on a note for $435 I would say that I do not owe Mr, Hulet one cent, I never did and I never win." "How about that note then "Hebought a note expecting to dome injury and has sued myself and John L. Goben for this sum. 1 am able to meet all my own indebtedness and the indebtedness of the firm of Bowers «fc Keene'y, which I assumed last year and of which thiB note was a part." "Why is Walter attempting to work you an injury "Simply because the Star knocked silly Mr. Hulett's personal and unworthy ambitions and 'busted' his ring I have incurred his childish dislike, all of which is very amusing. If you do not read tbe Star this week you will miss much good literature."

COLLEGE NOTES.
A special tram will carry those attending tbe football game Saturday back from Lafayette in the evening.
Work will be commenced on this fence around the athletic grounds to-morrow. W. H. Jackson has the contraot for the work.
Several of the faculty will attend the Wabash-Purdue game next Saturday. Prof. Kritz is looking forward to the game with great pleasure.
The students will furnish a full quota of masqueraders to-night, and "dunking will be very popular for the next day or two in consequence thereof.
It seems that DePauw is getting all the practice from other colleges that they can. Yesterday they defeated the Wurtemberg Collego eleven by a score of 28 to 0, at Springfield, Ohio.
Now is the chance for some friend of Wabash College athletics to donate money enough to erect a grand stand and fix up tbe athletic grounds, and have his or her name perpetuated by naming the field after them like Berkely oval, at Harvard, and Percy field at Cornell.
Over one hundred students will attend the Purdue-Wabash game at Lafayette next Saturday. A special train will be run leaving here about 12:20 p. m. and returning about 7 at night. An 80 cent rate has been secured. Quito a number of Crawfordsville people have announced their intention of going. The football eleven and substitutes will probably go up in the morning on the Vandalia.
The football team was photographed this afternoon in Zouave uniforms.

FAKIR'S GLASS DIAMONDS.
A Froces* That Turned Out to lis it Practical Temperance Lesson.
There was a new face among the fakirs on the water front the other morning, tho face of a man who made diamonds, rubies and other brilliants out of old glass bottles. The color of the bottles seemed to be tho factor that determined the nature of the stone. The implements were a small hammer, a little polishing wheel and a couple of boxes that contained a powder, says the San Fraircisco Examiner.
The fakir had a radiant portable stand somewhat larger than the contrivance that a scissors grinder oarries, and at that he did a thriving business. Water front glassware was sacrificed for diamonds, the accompanying sacrifice of silver varying with tho size of the finished product. Glass nuggets as big as the Kohinoor, and quite as brilliant as tho sun, were placed within the reach of tho multitude at fifty oents, and a modest-sized diamond, big enough for a water front engagement ring, could be bought for twenty cents.
Through the crowd an old man pushed his way. "Here's a bottle!" he exclaimed. "Break that up into rubies for me." "No rubies in that," replied the fakir. "It's a diamond bottle." "Diamonds, then!" shouted the old man. "Break it anyhow! I've carried that same bottle for twenty years back, an' many's the diamond an' ruby It's cost me. Break it up an' keep the diamonds for your trouble!"
WHERE LIFE IS INSECURE.
African Village Awakened at Midnight by Murtieronii Raider*.
Some evening you look around the village and see the people at their usual occupations, and later on retire to rest, writes Dr. Laws, in the Zenana Record. Suddenly the midnight stillness is broken by a distant call, and, alert, you raise yourself to listen. The call comes nearer, and is taken up and passed by other voices, and soon you are convinced it is the cry of alarm— warl v.-arl A few minutes more and the village is astir, the people rushing hither and thither, seeking to find safety in the thickest bush—a mother calling for her ohildren, or child for mother, but unable to find each other because of the alarm and scare which have separated them.
You spend a wakeful and watchful night, not knowing where the enemy may be, nor where His attack may take place. After long, anxiotis, weary hours you are thankful to notioe the first glimmer of dawn Bhowing itself in the east. A dangerous hour passes by and the enemy who has been expected is not seen but later on you see smoke rising from a village miles away, and in the course of a few hours •you may see men, women and children with terror-stricken faces, torn limbs and bleeding feet hurrying past, or, it may be, coming to you to get their wounds dressed. As you seek to relieve their pain you hear of how one child is missing, another has been carried away captive and a third murdered, and the homes of all, with their stores of grain, have been burned to ashes.
Ignorant Kn*s1ans.
The common people of Russia as a rule speak only their own tongue. A large portion of them cannot read the bewildering characters—Roman, Greek and composite—which form theii alphabet, and to help their ignorance tho shop walls are covered over with rudely painted pictures of articles for sale within. The butcher's shop has a picture of meats of all sorts bnd shapes the tailor's walls are covered with paintings of coats and trousers. The pills of the apothecary and the vegetables of the green grocer are advertised by pictures upon the doors and windows of their stores.
