Iage of the Opportunity to Buy Their Winter's Supply of Clothing While They Could,

|v' IVorl/i
for St.
The Chance of a Lifetime.
By the grace of an extension granted
we are permitted to oontinue the great
slaughter sale ot clothing, hats, underwear, shirts, etc., etc, for a short time
We extend our thanks to the intelligent public who has come to our assis
tance with their hard earned dollars and
we are sure they have been Bmply repain by the matchless value we have
given them and the memory of having
bought "the best and biggest bargains of their lives" at Benna's closing out
sale, wiil linger with them long after we
have left Crawfordsville. We know thit many people are sus
picious of a sale of this kind and we
also know that many things both unkind and UDtme have been said about
us. Conscious of the fact that we are doing jnst exactly what we advertise,
we pursue our WBy, regardless of what
others may do or say. No one who will come and inspect our
store and stock and see the marvelous low prizes we are making can, for a mo
ment doubt that our motives are true
and honest and that this is a closing out sale in good faith without regard to cost
or profit.
Ask your neighbors who have taken advantage ot this great sale to lay in
their supply of winter goods. Ask them to show you the matchless bergains
they have bought.
The goods speak for themselves. The most skeptioal cannot help be
lieving what his own eyes see.
Many have asked us "How can you afford to do it?"
Our answer is: "We opened this store at an unfortunate (for us) time."
The panic came and we failed to do
the business expected. We knew at the rate we were progressing that we could
not meet our obligations when due.
Then it became a question of losing our profit or losing our credit and we chose
to lose the former. If we can sell this Btock we shall conquer Shylock and pay
the pound of flesh. We intend to do it.

Ours is the only real, down-right, closing out and in-tend-to quit sale in Crawfordsville We defy all competition and will undersell then all. Den't foget it. B. B.

Book Notioe
"Guert Ten Eyck by W. O. Stoddard 8vo, cloth, illustrated by Merrill, $1.50. Boston: D. Lothrop Company, publishers. A story of the stirring times that marked the beginnings of the repnblio. It is well named "a hero story," for Gnert is a live Yankee-boy hero, his self-saorifice mingled with the strong oommon sense that made the foundations of the new government both deep and broad. It is a book for every boy and girl in the country to read, entirely free from morbid sensationalism, and as wholesome and bracing as a north wind. The Indian, Up-na-tan, has the real aboriginal flavor, and the negro, Co-co, with his marked racecharacteridtice, serves as a fine foil to the Indian. The book ie full of stirring incident there is not a dull page from cover to cover.

A Woman's Letter. "Dear Mrs. Pinkham: If any one wants to know how good your medicine is, just refer them to me.
I was so low, people thought I never could get well again. The trouble was in my womb, causing bearing-down and severe backache. I was so nervous and irritable my people could hardly live with me. Sometimes I would almost fall down, I was so dizzy, and how I did lie awake nights I 1 thought I should go crazy 1
But now all that is changed, and I am a well woman. I owe all to Lydia E. Pinkhatris Vegetable Compound. Now, when I do not feel just right, I take a bottle_ of your medicine and a box of your pills. They never fail." —Mrs. L.

SPEEDY LEGAL JUSTICE
Stone, the Murderer of the Wratten Family, to Hang.
TRIAL THIS MORNING-JURY RETURNED A VERDICT OF DEATH, IS FIFTEEN MINUTES.
Judge Heffron Bentenoed Him to Hang the Jefferaonville Prison on February 16, 1894,
Special to Thojjournal.
WASHINGTON, Ind., Nov. 4.—Stone, the bloody butcherer of the Wratten family, was brought up to Washington from the Jeffersonville prison last night under the oover of darkness and at 9 a m. to-day was arraigned before Judge Heffron, of the circuit court. Without any delay or red tape the wretch entered a plea of guilty and a jury was at once empanelled to pass judgment upon the case. To this jury Stone rehearsed the bloody story of his crime. Three other witnesses were hastily called and examined after whioh, without arguments of counsel, the judge gave brief instructions and the jury retired. It was out barely fifteen minutes and returned a verdiot fixing the death penalty. The court told Stone to stand up and when he did so asked him if he had anything to say why sentence should not be passed. Stone smilingly stated that he had nothing whatever to any. Judge Heffron accordingly sentenced him to be hanged at the Southern prison on February 16, 1^94. The scenes so quickly enacted were intensely dramatic and the greatest excitement prevailed. The trial was the qnickest murder trial on record, only two hours and a half elapsing from the arraignment to the passing of the death sentence. Stone will be returned to the southern prison at once although the danger of mob law has now passed.
After Orton's Assailants.
The following special from Wimamac shows that the churoh people are still after the assailants of Rev. Julius T. Orton:
Excitement still reigns high here over Monday mornine's horse-whipping scandal. Although the Rev. Mr. Orton and all parties concerned tried hard to keep the matter qaiet, prominent members of the ohurch are trying hard to bring the two young men to justice and give them the full extent of the law. Yesterday a meeting was held at the home of one of the prominent church, members, where, it is said, the matter was fully discussed. The result was that this morning about twenty-five of the ladies who attended church on that evening were subpoenaed as witness for another trial. Early this morning a warrant had been issued for the arrest of Moss and Thompson on a second charge for disturbing divine services. What was their surprise, however, when they found that young Thompson had left for parte unknown late last night. The case came up this afternnon in Justice Freeman's court before a jury, but after examining about twenty witnesses the case was adjourned until to-morrow. Opinions widely differ as to what the result of the trial will be. The chnrch people, however, claim that they will not drop the matter until the young men are prosecuted for every charge they may be able to bring up. The disgraceful episode has created a bitter feeling among many pjomiuent people of this city.
An Important Oaae Affirmed. The Supreme Court yesterday affirmed the judgment of Oliver P. Lewis, administrator of Urial Deer, deceased. This was a snit to recover money which Teegarden and his wife were charged with procuring from Urial Deer while he was of unsound mind. The case was tried in the Parke Cirouit Court where a jury found a verdict against Teegarden for about $9,000. He appealed to the Supreme Court acd is again beaten. The Court says: "When the verdiot finds that appellants received money from a decedent jwhile he was of unsound mind and they refused to pay the same over to the administrator the law affixes the conclusion that appellants hold the money received without right. When one of the parties 19 of ordinary capacity and intelligence and the other is of feeble intellect etie former will be required to show that a transaction between them is not against right and good conscience." This decision involves a large amount of land also, to whioh parties procured deeds while Deer was of unsound mind. These deeds will, all be set aside. The attorneys for the administrator were P. S. Kennedy and W. T. Whittington, who feel quite jubilant over their victory.

One of the "Philistines" Speaks His Mind. To the Editor 1 UK JOURNAL. In the College Notes published in THE JOURXAI.
of Nov. 3 we find the fol
lowing: The posts for the fence around the athletic fields are up and the fence soon will be. The Philistines residing in the neighborhood are howling and passing a petition to have an injunction placed on the contractor. An injunction would do no good, however.
The "howling Philistines" who live west and south of the campus are civilized people who have some rights that ought to be reBpeoted. Some of the "howlers" have been friendB of the college for years and have contributed very generously to its funds, and they, with the others, object to their view being obstructed by a hideous board fenoe. Very fetv, if any of the people out here, care to see any of the wonderful foot ball games, for we have all grown tired and weary of the daily exhibitions of brutality connected with it only a few weeks ago during an exciting game we were again presented with the sad sight of seeing some ot the players so budly hurt as to make it necessary to carry them from the grounds. This has frequently occurred and we have quietly let it pass. The children who see the game are educated to believe that such results are mere accidents in a game ot amusement necessary to the development ot muscle. What an education! When we think of this we pause and look backward to November, 1832, and see in imagination the founders of the institution kneeling in prayer in the unbroken forest which is now our beautiful campus, and hear them solemnly dedicate the "institution to God and man in the interest of Christian education," and we wonder if "evolation in religion" has made foot ball a part of Christian education. If so we cannot object it not, we only conolude that the object of those worthy men was ot less importance than the athletic sports of to-day.
