A Ileal Llve'Columbiau Guard. In connection with the Music Hall benefit entertainment next Fridayevening, Stanley Simpson has sent up to the Windy City to have a searching party hunt around among the debris in the deserted buildings to find if possible a real live Columbian guard to exhibit as one of the specialties of the entertainment. These rare specimens were nearly all taken away by relic hunters immediately after the Fair, but diligent search has, in the past fewweeks occasionally brought one to light minus a limb or nose and still more rarely one has been discovered lying around loose with all parts intact. The management is determined to have a whole one—a real live one— or none at all. Don't fail to see "The Crawfordsville Deestrick School" and local specialties at Slusic Hall next Friday evening.
A Great Orator.
It is not the privilege of Crawfordsville people to hear as great an orator as the one that will address the public meeting at the Y. SI. C. A. tomorrow night. Layman Abbott, who is very sparing in his recommendations, says he is "perhaps the most remarkable temperance orator who has been known to this country since the days of John B. Gough." Mr. Wooley is not a self seeker but almost his entire income is expended in a home for inebriate where practical work is done at reforming them. All interested in the cause of good citizenship should hear him. The highest praises are given him by pulpit and press of Indianapolis, where he spoke all last week.
The Elliott Benefit.
The burlesque play entitled "The Crawfordsville 'Deestrick' School of Forty Years Ago," to appear at Slusic Hall Friday night, will be interspersed with the following specialties by local talent: Solo, Sliss Bessie Nicholson song by quartette, J. B. Rice, Jno. A. Gilbert, Omer Cox and Clias. SIcIntire The "All High" orchestra, consisting of B. F. McClamrock et al., will discourse sweet music. On account of the low price of admission and the fact that the play is a laughable burlesque on our schools forty years ago, there will, no doubt, be a full house. Admission 25c and 15c.
Musket Kail To-Morrow Night.:, The 'i'erre Haute Y. M. C. A. Juniors will play basket ball here to-morrow night with the local association's Junior department team. The Crawfordsville Juniors play an excellent game, and the meeting to-morrow night will be quite interesting. The home Juniors made the Business SIcn's team work last night in order to beat them and will do better still with players of their own weight. The game will begin about 7:15 in order that no one need miss hearing Dr. Woolley's lecture which will begin after the game. Fifteen cents admission will be charged.
MALARIA is one of the most insidious of health destroyers. Hood's Sarsaparillr counteracts its deadly poison and builds up the system.

TOM INITIATED.
He Quickly Becomes Conversant Wltli Some of the Delightful Customs and Conventionalities of the Hoosier Athens.
When Tom Cooper awoke this morning and heard the news, he felt like going back
tto
rest and cutting the
weights of the folding bed. Tom came here from Kokomo to enter Wabash College. He arrived last evening at the Vandalia station and Wi nt to the home of«W. T. Brush, who is a relative, to spend the night. When he told the-baggage man at the station that he would leave his' trunk out there until morning the baggageman sized him up at once as a stranger in a strange land and went off muttering something to the effect that if people insisted on giving their things away he couldn't help it.
Last night was the regularly appointed night for the weekly burglary of the Vandalia station. The employes left at the usual time leaving the keys to the baggage room hanging in a conspicuous place so that the burglars wouldn't have to hurt their corns kicking the doors open. Alight lunch and a box of cigars, together with a polite request to please leave the stove up, were also left in plain sight. This morning the .trunk of Sir. Cooper, of Kokomo, was] found kicked open per contract. Several little nick nacks had been abstracted, to-wit: Two new suits of clothes (incl uding Tom's Sunday "long") a new Knox hat, six dress shirts, summer outing coat, manicure set, New Testament in Russia leather, several pairs of half hose, several neckties. etc., etc. The police have not landed the burglars, who are probably being entertained at Darlington to-day as dude members of the Rockville council on a junketing tour to inspect the buried mastodon with a view to electing him mayor.
The Uackueye.
Sluch has been said for the past few years about the Hackney horse being the only horse sought for in the Eastern cities for fine coach, carriage, tandem. four-in-hand and park horses on account of being so compactly built aHd having that superbly high knee and hock action, and in order to ascertain that this be true we have spent some time in investigating the great national horse show catalogue, held at New York last fall, the largest horse show in America, and we find there were 85,180 paid in premiums for Hackneys alone, while there were only $350 paid for French coach, German coach and Cleveland bays combined. At the Philadelphia open air horse show to be held Slay 29 to June 3, $2,345 is offered in premiums for Hackneys, which only §150 is offered to all other coach breeds combined. At the combination sale in New York last November 200 head of high stepping horses were sold (most of which were grade Hackneys) for SGI,000, making an average of over $300 per head. Hackneys were introduced to Slontgomery county about three years ago by Lew Cochran, and since then a great many breeders have made a specialty of them. The result has been to improve the grade of our horses very much.
Kival Spiritualists.
A lot of crank spiritualists have taken considerable interest in the whereabouts of the missing SI ike Lannahan and have been airing opposite and rival views with an enthusiasm beautiful to behold. One devotee of the black art went into a trance and saw Slicliael walking along the Wabash river near Covington. John Lane went there yesterday and was considerably disappointed in not finding the object of his quest. To-day a Goose Nibble necromancer comes to the front with a cold rush and informs the already frantic and bewildered Mrs. Lannahan that Slichael is in the dam. He jumped in, says the spiritualist, but before he jumped he very considerately hung his vest, containing an explanatory letter, on an adjoining bush. Respectable people would dearly love to see these meddling and prophetic rapscallions properly tarred and feathered.
Case Reversed.
A year or so ago Sirs. John C. Wingate was injured by the negligence of the Cloverleaf Railroad Company. Her injuries were of a very serious character and suing she obtained a judgment for 39,000. Her husband obtained a judgment also for about $3,000. Yesterday the supreme court reversed the finding in Sirs. Wingate's suit on some technicality. Sir. Wingate's case is now in the appellate court. The reckless manner in which the supreme court is reversing cases is causing terror and dismay in legal circles. Nothing is safe from its devastating hand and nearly every case that 'goes up is reversed.
Death of Mamlie Farker.
Sliss Mandie Parker died of consumption at New Richmond, Sunday, April 22. She was seventeen years of age and an orphan, her parents, James and Lavina Parker, having both died some time ago, and thus at an early age she was thrown upon the world alone. She was not a member of any church, but her life had been above reproach and she expressed herself as having no fear of death. Funeral services were held at the M. E. church on Tuesday at 10 o'clock. Itev. R. H. Gott. of Mellot, officiating. Interment at New Richmond cemetery.

GREAT ENTHUSIASM OVER HARRISON.
The Resolutions Roast Hoke Smith Brown, Favor a State Soldiers' Home ami] Endorse Harrison and
Protection.
Special to The Journal. ." IXDIAXAPOLIS, April 25.—The Republican State convention was called to order this morning promptly at 10 o'clock by Chairman Gowdy. After a prayer by Rev. T. I. Coultas, Col. Dick Thompson, the old man eloquent, was elected permanent chairman. He made a ringing speech which was received with much enthusiasm. Although in his eighty-fourth year Col. Thompson's voice is still strong and clear.
Chas. E. Wilson, of Tippecanoe, wa chosen secretary and it was announced that the rules of the fifty-first Congress as formulated by Thomas B. Reed would govern the deliberations of the convention. This statement was greeted with loud applause. Ex-Pres ident Harrison appeared on the stage and at sight of him the convention went wild and he was given a magnificent ovation. He spoke for about twenty minutes. The committee on resolutions of which Hon. F. M. Dic'e, of Crawfordsville, is a member, then reported. The resolutions were read and adopted by a rising vote. They reaffirm the platform and principles of the Republican party and endorse the Harrison administration together with the legislation of the fifty-first Congress. The policy of the Cleveland administration is denounced in strong terms. A liberal pension policy is favored and Hoke Smith is roasted. On the money question the resolutions came out for a fixed standard of value so that gold,silver and paper will be introconvertible. A State Soldiers' Home is also favored. The committee on credentials reported and the secretaryread off the list of candidates for Secretary of State. No nominating speeches were made. The voting as as follows:
First ballot—Watson 391, Sulzer 320. Owen 417, Jones 302, Packard 211. Second ballot—Owen 409, Jones 3S9, Watson 415, Sulzer 287, Packard 158.
Third ballot—Owen 570, Jones 350. Watson 494, Sulzer 200, Packard 91. Fourth ballot—Owen 880, Jones G9, Watson G89, Packard GO. Owen nominated.
Before the fourth ballot Sulzer withdrew. Jones withdrew when ballot was one-third taken.
Nominations for Auditor of State were made and the yote was as follows
First ballot—Richey 244. Coons 370, Daily 405, Houck 302,"Wilson 31S. No nominations.
Second ballot—Richey 202, Coons 333, Daily 494. Houck 389, Wilson 297. No nomination.
While the roll was being called for third ballot John W. Coons withdrew his name and for a time great confusion reigned. Marion threw the bulk of her vote for Houck, but only succeeded in putting him to second place. No nomination, but Daily still has a good lead.
Third ballot—Richey 194, Coons 06, Daily 693, Houck 555, Wilson 210. No nomination.
Fourth ballot—Daily nominated.
Tell the Truth.
Advertising what you haven't got, or what you don't do is worse than not advertising at all. You can't well be too careful about this. Make your ads. strictly true in letter and in spirit. I belieye that the majority of business men do this now, but as it is the most important thing about advertising, it will bear repeating and reiterating.
When merchants and laymen come to consider advertising in its legitimate character of "business news," it will pay better—pay the advertiser better and the advertisee too.J
W. A. BATES.
No Price Set.
The committee of the council to which was referred the question of purchasing the water works reports that up to date the syndicate has set no price on the plant. The Chicago management deplores the existing condition of affairs and states that it will state its selling price as soon as the New York officers are heard from. Just what effect the organization of the new company will have on the city's desire to buy remains to be seen.
Miss Janle Jones Very 111.
This morning between 8 and 9 clock Sliss Janie Jones received a very sudden and violent stroke of paralysis. Her left side was paralyzed and Dr. May was hastily summoned. Her condition was pronounced very critical but Dr. Slay reports her condition as somewhat improved this afternoon. There is strong hope for her recovery.

A. E. Beck Murdered In Indianapolis. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 95.—Attorney Albert E. Beck, one of the brightest lawyers of the Indianapolis bar and Congressman Bynum's law partner, was murdered some time Wednesday night in his bed at the home of John Lame, at Ashland avenue and Twentieth street. Mrs. Lame found the lawyer Tuesday morning with a bullet hole in his right temple and her husband'B revolver in the bed. The dead man's revolver was found in the dresser with all chambers loaded. The slats in the window shutter at Beck's room had been cut with a sharp knifa A door leading to his room, from a porch was also found open. The crime is thus far a mystery. No possible motive has been suggested.
Mr. Beck was a widower, and boarded at the Lame house with his 20-year-old daughter, Miss Edith, who was home from Depauw university on her vacation. The dead lawyer had an office in the Lombard building with Lawyer Henry T, Ertle. Just before going home Monday night Mr. Ertle was with Beck, and says the man was never in a better mood.
Each Accuses the Other of Murder* MUHCIK, Ind., April 25.—Great interest was manifested Tuesday in the preliminary hearing of Frank Benadaum, Mike Gorman and William Watson, ch/rged with the murder of Attorney Bailey.

Watson's home is at Sidney, 0., where he bears a good reputation. He will likely be discharged.
Shot Hli Wife and Himself. LEBANON, Ind., April 28.—Edward Workman, eldest son of Rev. T. C. Workman, of the M.
