We Ilml Tliein.
On Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock the ^Republican conventions for the purpose of selecting delegatus were hold in all of the townships in tlie county. So large Was the number of candidates and so great was the interest that all were anxious to learn the result. Tim JouHN'Ai/went far toward satisfying this longing as it published in its daily edition complete and correct lists of delegates from all of the townships except Sugar Creek and Ripley. Jn each convention The Joint NAT. had a gentleman who rushed the result to the telegraph olliee as soon as it was ascertained and TNRC Jouknai consequently had the results from several of the out-townships before many of the precincts in Union were in Ripley and Sugar Creek conventions did not adjourn until about 5 o'clock and both of them were some miles from a telegraph station so, of course the result was not obtained in time for publication Saturday. Scott town ship's convention was held five miles from the Ladoga telegraph office but the result was in Tin: Joukxai, office by 4:30. It cost Tin: .loi'RN.vr, some thing but it gave news that people desired.

AN INCIDENT OE THE WAR.
The Pitiful AppcHl for Death of a Wotimletl Soulier at Fr»ul(:i'k'UKlur£.
I'\ M. Ilea ton contributes the following touching incident of the war to the Washington Post:
During the battles of the Wilderness, in May, 1804, Uov. Morton sent a parly of Indianians, including the writer, to look out for the well-being of wounded Iloosiers, at and near Fredericksburg. We came over from Aequia Creek, and crossing the Rappahannock on a pontoon bridge, entered the city. We found wounded soldiers everywhere, in almost every house and storeroom. The poor fellows were being brought in from the battlefield in every conceivable means of conveyance. Then and there we were witnesses of the most heart-rending sights as the mangled forms were hustled into the city from the lield of carnage a few miles away.
I shall always remember an incident which occurred in an old abandoned warehouse temporarily used for a hospital. At the top of the stairs leading to the upper part of the building, and almost across the doorway and on the bare lloor, lay a soldier from a Maine regiment whose hip joint had been fearfully shattered by a grape shot. The surgeons could not amputate the limb, for the operation would have resulted in his immediate death, and so he was abandoned, to linger and die. lis leg from the hip to the knee was swollen and red, and the poor man was writhing in the most excruciating pn in. He besought us to kill him, and said, •Oh, please put me out of my misery: the doctors say I must die. Why not ill me now?'' Thus he pleaded, not for his life, but that his life might be taken away and his agony ended.
Never shall I forget that scene, as the poor fellow begged us so earnestly to kill him. We tried to soothe him, but all our kind words were in vain. In no way could we do anything for him, so were forced to leave him to suiter, and at last to die.
Many a time, during the thirty years that have elapsed, has my mind reverted to that scene in the old warehouse at Fredericksburg, with the hope at each recurring thought that the soldier from Maine did not wait very long for the death messenger to come and release him from his suffering.
Oilier exhibitions of the "savagery of war" it was our lot to witness during this stay in that part of Virginia, and then we came back to our homes. lad to escape for the time being from these never-to-be-forgotten experiences.
St. -John's CliurcH.
The service at St. John's Church last, evening was a particularly pretty and interesting one. The church looked especially bright and the altar, draped in white and decked with peonies of the same snowy hue, presented finite a charming picture. The programme of music, given after the service by Messrs. H. Ramsbrook and 1 trow 11, was enjoyed by all who attended. Their rendering of the Beethoven motive was careful and spirited while the number from Haydn's "Creation" was given with an accuracy that afforded keen pleasure to all who heard it. We understand that after pieces are to be given at the close of each evening service, and we predict for them a large and appreciative audi enec.
A Good l{o|ortolre Comymuj-. I have had over twenty-five applications'from different reportoire companies wanting to play a week at Music Hall at popular prices, all of which I have refused until I heard from the Robert Wayne. Company which was here last May. It was one of the best companies ever in Music Hall and have been asked a number of times to get it to return. I intended to close with ''Eight Hells" but have succeeded in making arrangements for Mr Wayne and his wife to be here during the week beginning May 28, in a rep ortoire of first class plays mid supported by a lirst class company.

Frank fort Xcws: Irwin A Son's circus, so called, left here last night for Crawfordsville. after two days' stay to a poor business in this city. The aggregation has not been enjoying aland office business since leaving Indianapolis, its place of organization. Two of its performers, "engaged at a liigl: salary," left the show here, and being financially short were allowed a night' lodging at the county jail.
The show has been a fizzle in Crawfordsville. Its entertainment is poor as its audiences which are miser able. Steer clear of it. It's a fake.

MUSICIAN AND AUTHOR. I
George K. Quinton, tlie OrgnniKt at John'sHpUcoiml Church—An Author of Some liepute.
St:
Many people are talking about the organist at St. John's Episcopal church, lie is said to be a wonderful musician and yet very few people have learned anything about him and even his name is not familiar to the public. This is because of the excessive modesty of the man. After considerable inquiry The Jouuxai. learned the following facts about him: llis name is George E. Quinton and he is an Englishman by birth but his travels which have included nearly every civilized part of the globe have made him considerable of a cosmopolitan. He speaks several different languages fluently and is an author of no little repute. The principal productions of his pen are the English novels, "Violin and Vendetta," "Thomas, the Treasurer," and
The Tale of the Tudors." At present he is just finishing a manuscript 1 titled "Sceva." It is a story of eastern magic, Seeva being the Hindoo god of destruction. A. C. McClurg A. Co., the Chicago publishers, are desirous of obtaining this manuscript but Mr. Quin ton has not yet disposed of it. But music is Mr. Quinton's chief delight and his knowledge of it is wonderful There is not a melody or harmony ancient or modern, popular or classic that Mr. Quinton cannot play from memory. What is more remarkable lie can write the notes of any of these pieces from memory. He spent 'three and a half years in the Royal Conservatory of Music at Florence, Italy, receiving a diploma, and is intimately acquainted with many of the leading artists of Europe, lie is very devoted to the Episcopalian church and has spent much of his time in building up weak churches of this denomination in
New Zealand, Australia and America He came to Crawfordsville last Febru ary and since that time has spent all of his time in creating an interest in music at St. John's church. He gives lessons both instrumental and vocal and drills a choir. All of liis work for the church is done without money and without price, merely for the good the cause.
