The Wisconsi boys were making monkeys of the Purdue people when burglar Halliet. Pur due's coacher who was officiating umpire, began a series of the rankest lecisions ever witnessed. He hopped onto Wisconsin and played much harder against them than the whole Purdue team. Halliet made all Pur due's gains. In spite of all his out rageous and bucaneering methods Wisconsin pushed the ball to Purdue line when Halliet began to disqualify their men without any cause. Wiscon sin then quit the field in disgust, al thetigh ahead and bound to win The people who paid their money to see foot ball thus paid to see piracy. Halliet should be run out of the State

A Card.

We desire to thank the ladies of thi city for their attendance and patron age at our opening of cloaks and furs Monday, as well as the kind attention we always receive on this line and a others. We have no word of complaint regarding our treatment by the people of this city and county but we desire to say a few words iu the interest of our city and home interests. There is advertised for Thursday an opening and display of cloaks and furs by an Indianapolis house and we feel it will receive a certain amount of attention from our citizens, as they think in their own interests, which is natural. We blame no one for buying to their own interests, and would not ask your trade if we charged you more than you can buy for elsewhere, but we have al wa3's and still maintain that we sell goods just as cheap as any Indianapolis house. Some time ago the merchants of 1 ndianapolis made a fight against Cincinnati openings in their city and are now protected by a high license. We do not ask this this protection from our city government nor is it desirable we think. We do not fear competition, we only ask fair treatment for the merchants of Crawfordsville who are here in dull times as well as prosperous pay taxes and in other ways help to make our city prosperous. We would say. go look al the goods ot the hotel, then give the home merchants a look, not this house alone, but the other good stores in Crawfordsville, and we will guarantee home stores will save you from two to ten dollars on your cloak. For that day we will give all our profits to keep trade at home, and sell cloaks and furs at cost, and iuvitc all other dealers in this line to assist us.

Yours very respectfully. L. DlSCIIOF.

SHE the Indianapolis cloaks first then come to us, we will guarantee to match the garments you like S2:00 to $5:00 less. L. HISCIIOF.

THEIR FIFTH ANNIVERSARY.

r. niul Hire. S. M. CofTmnn C«lolmt« Their Wmwlen Wedding I -iinl

Evening.

Last evening at their home on west Main stret Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Coft'iuau ery hospitably entertaiued about one hundred and fifty of their friends in honor of the fifth anniversary of their marriage. The residence was very artistically and elaborately adorned with flowers, vines and autumn leaves, the effect produced being both striking and beautiful. The guests were received in the parlor, where the decorations were particularly beautiful, and their entertainment was most carefully attended throughout the evening. The refreshments were quite sumptuous and elaborate, being served in courses. Mr. Milan Overton presided at the piano during l.he evening and rendered some very elegant music. Mr. and Mrs. CoiTman were made the recipients of some very fine and appropriate presents and altogether the affair was a decidedly pleasant and successful social event.

PILLED THEIR LEGS.

Den ixciiR of Coal Creek Being Worked Out Hy a Gang of Quack*.

l-'or a couple of weeks a couplc of oily citizens from Indianapolis have made their headquarters at New Richmond and from there have swooped out from the adjoining country in the search for suckers. It recently rained fish out in Coal Creek bat that doesn't explain the miraculous draught taken in the nets of the fily folks, for most of the suckers they caught have been swimming about iu Coal Creek for over half a century. These Indianapolis people claim that they represent some wonderful medical institute which can cure any disease or ailment known to man. They come down on some old farmer who is religiously opposed to reading the exposures of frauds iu the newspapers and make him believe that he is afflicted with all sorts of things and that he will shortly die unless he tries their remedies. The old boy frightened half to death gives his note for the sum required for his cure and the "doctors" depart. The next time the »patient comes to town he finds a little package of medicine upon which he has to pay express charges. Then he begins to roar, lie is a goner, however, as he is out cure and money too.

Already the wails from the Hristle Ridge neighborhood have begun to burden the air like the doleful dirge of the seventeen year locusts. The first man to bob up was old Tom liaily who gave his note for Sl'50 iu order that he might be cured of consumption, deafness and cold feet. John Iliatt, a veil era'ole octogenarian of Tippecanoe county, gave his note for Slno to be saved from the clutches of deafness arid failing sight. Wm. Kite gave S?»l to be relieved of some imaginary ail meut. while three of the Honnclls, old Mr. Carter and a whole pack of other excellent people had the pleasure of swelling the fund. It is estimated that the quacks.scooned iu over SI.500 before a fuss was raised. At last accounts they were still at work. The people who listen to their fairy tales and then contribute are the rankest sort of suckers. They will not be cured of the diseases specified but will by a few big doses get rid of the wheels in their heads it is hoped. Again we repeat for the thousandth time, lteware of the stranger who asks you to sign a note. Set the dogs on him.

Somebody Should Be Jerked.

There are too many kills of all ages prancing about the streets of Craw fordsville smoking and chewing tobac co. They are injuring their health and morals, too. The following amend ed law of l-Srt'.i should be enforced here "That it shali be unlawful for any person or persons to give, barter or sell either directly or indirectly, to any child or children under the age of sixteen years, tobacco or preparations of tobacco to be chewed or smoked by said child or children, or to give, baiter or sell the same to any person whomsoever, with knowledge that the same is to be chewed or smoked by any child under the age aforesaid: or to persuade, advise, counsel or compe any child under said age to chew or smoke tabaeeo.

Sec. —Any person who violates the provisions of this act shall be deemed guilty of misdemeanor, and, on conviction thereof, shall Vie lined in any sum not less than ten dollars, nor inure than one hundred dollars, and be im prisoned in the county jail not less than ten nor more than thirty days."

GREEN STREET WIDENED.

uu thi- Otli*-r .111 nor Uiifciliegft It.v tin. Council.

The Council met lust evening with all pressent except City Attorney Wliittington, who was represented by Judge Thomas. A numerously signed petition was presented asking that the name of Elm street be changed to Naylor avenue in honor of the late Judge Nay lor. It was referred to the Hoard of Public Improvements. The City Engineer made a report on the Lafayette avenue sewer which was adopted. It authorized the payment of SS8.51 for labor done.

On motion of Mr. MeCampbell it was decided to pay 15 cents an hour for men and 30 cents au hour for teams giving the Street Commissioner discreionary power to grade labor and teams to not less than 12% cents ami cents according to their relative value. This restores the old rate of wages for street labor and was done in view of the short days.

The report of the City Commissioners on widening Green street was received md the resolution necessary to complete the work was passed by the required two-thirds vote. Mr. Wilhite was the only member voting against t.

Messrs. Reynolds'''and MeCampbell put in pleas for the speedy completion of llocum street and the Street Com missioner was ordered to proceed with the work.

The stone crossing from Elston block across Main street will be replaced with a brick crossing •and Col. Klston will be paid for the stone at an appraised value.

After allowing some accounts th council adjourned.

FRANK M. NUCKOLLS RECEIVER.

An 111 Wind That Kiowa Nobody Au.v OIM1 .'.-.r— A Crawfordsville l»oy Sieps I'p.

Frank M. Nuckolls, formerly of this city, has been appointed receiver for the Shelbyville and the Warsaw water plauts. The Shelbyville lliimhUritn says:

Last Saturday the American Debenture Company, of Chicago, by Elias Summerlield as receiver and It. II. Wilbanks. attorney, filed a petition in the circuit court to have a receiver appointed to take charge of the Indiana Water and Light Company, of this city, as well as that of Warsaw, Indiana. The petition alleges that the company is indebted to the first named company iti the sum of 810.000 and that division and sales of the plants would result in injury to the patrons of the Water VLight Company and greatly decrease the value of the plants and that the same could be protected as well as the interest of its creditors by having a receiver take it in charge. Upon this showing Judge Johnson granted the petition and appointed F. M. Nuckolls receiver of both plants, and required him to qualify by giving bond iu the sum of 525,000. Mr. Nuckolls has been the Superintendent of the Shelbyville works for several years and has brought them to the highest point of perfection, lie is a thorough business mail, perfectly holiest in his dealings and always courteous anil accommodating. We are glad to see him promoted to the position of receiver and feel sure that the business of the company will proceed the same as before and our people will suiter no inconvenience by reason of the change.

Mi«t» Maxwell'* SueccBitor.

Yesterday morning Miss Ella Maxwell retired, for only a short time it is to be hoped, from her school work at the Mills building. The sole cause of this is that she needs rest for a time and has asked the school board for a leave of absence. Miss Maxwell's place has been taken by Mrs. lialdwin, who has recently till now been a special student in Wabash College, taking courses in Hiblical Literature and Psychology under President Durroughs. Mrs. lialdwin holds a certificate from the Terre llaute Normal, where she taught three years in the practice school, and chiefly in the grade she now has here. She has taught eight years in the public schools of Indiana, two of them at Anderson and the last year at Gosport It will thus be seen that herexperience is adequate and her success is ample, in view of the responsible position to which she has been appointed. In regard to Miss Maxwell's work. Superintendent Wellington says:

I deeply regret to have Miss Maxwell leave our schools, even for the short time that I hope it will take her to regain her former health and vigor. Only one of long experience in the position of receiving children fresh from homes to their firstseriot .- experiences at school knows anything of the importance and peculiar demands upon the teacher of first year children. It is, by along way, the most responsible work in any system of schools. In many cities this truth -is recognized by the largest salary paid for this grade. It is far below the actual truth that ought to be said to credit Miss Maxwell with being about perfectly fitted for this work, from long experience, personal character, acquirements and unmeasured study. May re and change soon restore her to her old self and work again."
