AMUSEMENT NOTES.
The County Fair at Music Hall January 11 —A Merry Story.
To expatiate on the long run of "The County Fair" is like carrying coals to Newcastle, for play-goers are familiar with its great success, and the announcement of its coming^next Thursday evening has at this early day aroused interest. The play should prove attractive to those theatre-goers whom the tinsel and pruriency of the imported drama tires, for it is built on the same lines as "The Old Homestead," and tells a merry story of rural New England life without intrigue or counter-plot. Incidentally introduced is an old-fashioned husking bee and a genuine horse race, which makes the comedy doubly attractive.
"Blue Jeans."
Music Hall was packed Saturday evening and by far the best audience of the season greeted "Blue Jeans." The show was the best of its kind that ever visited Crawfordsville and' every one was highly pleased. The scenery was excellent and the people were all very clever. No possible complaint could be made of the performance or performers as such.
Yet it is not to be doubted but that the play "Blue Jeans" should be routed from the stage. It is a base libel on the State of Indiana and has done us untold harm away from home. It introduces to the audience a horde of ignorant untamed jays (whose like can be found nowhere in this State) as representative Hoosiers. It places in the mouths of these outlandish mossbacks a dialect which is dignified as "Hoosier dialect." It has not a place in the State to-day and never did have outside isolated settlements of "crab or chard Kentuckians." It is the dialect of the "poor white trash" of the South and to place it to the credit of Indiana is at once a burning insult and ma terial injury. "Blue Jeans" together with such novels as "The Hoosier School Master" and some of the dialect poems of Riley have worked Indiana irreparable harm. Th'ey are all right here where Indiana is known for what she is but east and west and north and south of us is where we are libeled and wronged. People living not so remote from us believe that we act and talk here to-day as these silly and libelous plays, poems and novels rep.-esent us. It is about time that we were calling a halt. "Blue Jeans" should be hissed from the boards of every Indiana stage.

Concern.
The recent debate between the Wayman Literary of this city and the Silver Leaf Society, of Frankfort, has caused a great deal of undue notoriety from the reason of the defeat of the latter society in this city a week ago.

An Investigation Wanted.
The relatives of the late Nat Hainil ton are much exercised over his death. It is known that the disease from which he offered and which would ul timately have caused his death was the res-ult of his being struck on the head with a weight by a former well known citizen. When his dead body was dressed numerous fresh bruises were found on his head and bcxly and one of his arms were broken. It is stated that these were caused by his having fallen the day previous to his death. Those conversant with the excellent conrli. tion of affairs at the county asylnn lare satisfied that such is the case-

A BOUT a year ago I took a violent attack of la grippe. I coughed day and night for about six weeks my wife then suggested that I try Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. At first I could see no difference, but still kept taking it, and soon found that it was what I needed. 1 I got no relief from one dose I took another, and it was only a few days until I was free from the cough. 1 think people in general ought to know the value of this remedy, and I take pleasure in acknowledging the benefit I have received from it.

DEATH OF MRS. TINSLEY.
One of Cruwfordsville's Noble Women Cone to Her Kcward.
The community was shocked this morning to learn of the death of Mrs. Harvey B. Tinsley, which occurred at twenty minutes of two this morning. She has been ill for ten vreeks with grip, and this disease with severe complications was the cause of her demise. The attending physicians and trained nurse did not give up hopes of her recover}- until Sunday morning. It was plain that the end was only a short time off.
Mrs. Tinsley was born in Frankfort, Oct. 13, 1847, her maiden name being Lizzie Dunn. She is a niece of Mrs. Elizabeth Binford and Miss Janey Jones, of this city. Until 1872 she lived at Frankfort and in June of that year she was married to Harvey Tinsley, and the two settled here where they have since lived. Seven children, five boys and two girls have been born to them. Mrs. Tinsley while attending school at Indianapolis joined church, and at the time of her death was a member of Center church. Mrs. Tinsley was one of the truly good and noble women of Crawfordsville." No one had a kinder heart or a more gentle spirit through all the cares and duties of family and social life. To her children she was a wise and most loving mother, to her husband a true helpmeet. Her place in the family cannot be filled. As a member of the Woman's Relief Corps she was active in the charitable enterprises of that organization. The funeral will occur 011 Wednesday afternoon.
THE OUT TOWNSHIP REPUBLICANS,
Members of the Central Committee Selected and Delegates to Terre Haute Cbopen.
Scott Townahip.
The Republicans of Scott township met in mass convention at Center school house Jan. 0, to select a delegate to the district convention at Terre Haute Jan. IS, to select precinct committeemen and a chairman for the township. The meeting was called tc order at two o'clock with H. H. Swindler in the chair. J. C. Long was chosen secretary, and II. H. Swindler was made chairman of township committee Joe Watkins committeeman for precinct No. 1, and Ed. Bowers, committeeman precinct No. 2 J. C. Long, delegate district convention Abe Fink, alternate. Meeting closed by a rousing speech from Blair Iliggins, the colored orator of Scott township.
Franklin Township.
The Republicans of Franklin township met in mass convention in Campbell's Hall Saturday, Jan. 0. for the purpose of selecting one committeeman from each precinct, and three delegates and alternates to attend the district convention at Terre Haute, .Tan. IS. The meeting was called to order by S. S. Martin, and on motion of F. W. Campbell, E. P. McClaskey was chosen chairman, and W. II. H. Smith was chosen secretary. The following were chosen to serve for the next two years:
Precinct No. 1.—Committeeman. W C. Stewart delegate, Daniel Lewis: alternate, W. B. Mount.
Precinct No. 2.—Committeeman, F. W. Campbell delegate, John Peterson, alternate, W. C. Kimler. v5
Precinct No. 3.—Committeeman: Tt', C. Miller: delegate, W. C. Miller: alternate. Abraham Castor.
S. S. Martin was chosen chairman of the township committee. The Hon. J. A. Mount being present was called upon and delivered a rousing fifteen minutes speech, roasting the Democratic party for their incompetency and admonishing all Republicans to be up and at work, putting on the harness and getting into the traces for active duty. J. O. Marshall made the closing speech and hit the mark whe gave the yell of 30 years ago and said, "come on boys, we have them running, let up keep them at it." The convention closed with everyone ready for the fray.
Wayne Township.
The Republicans of Wayne township met in Red Men's hall Saturday, Jan. fi, for the purpose of electing precinct committeemen and to appoint delegates to attend the district convention at Terre Haute. Never before was there such interest manifested in the Republican ranks in this township. The attendance was very large, consisting of about seventy-five or eighty enthusiastic Republicans, seven- of whom were ex-Democrats. Speeches were made by Capt. II. M. Billings and others which were cheered to the echo as they spoke of the Wilson tariff bill as the culmination of Democratic cowardice and stupidity, and the utter disregard of the Democratic Congress for their declaration of principles made to the people at the Chicago convention. A reference to the attitude of the present Administration towards the Union soldiers of the Civil war in recognizing them as an organized band of thieves and robbers to defraud a country in defense of which they had given the best years of their lives, brought forth a tremendous storm of applause. The condemnation of the President in the foul and clandestine attempt to destroy a friendly government, one which his administration had recognized and to reinstate a depraved and profligate Queen, noted for tyranny and immorality, was received in the same spirit. The following committeimen were elected:
Precinct 1.—Howard Edwards. Precinct 2.—C. B. Harvey. Precinct 3.—James Sanders. Chairman—Rice Kline. The chairman and precinct committeeman were empowered to fill all vacancies that might occur on their board.
Ilarfey Billings and Rice Kline were
appointed as delegotes to attend the District convention at Terre Haute.
