A Voice from 1'unluw.
Commenting on the foot ball game of last Saturday the Lafayette Courier: says that Purdue simply walked over the heavy Presbyterians who did not leuow the game at all. Tlicy have good material in the Wabash team and they play foot ball for all they are worth, with a never ending fierceness which deserves better results than a lonesome cipher in the score. With proper coaching, hard training and a total abstinence from newspapers with proclivities peculiar to one Ananias, the Wabash players would make a good team some day. The Purdue boys are profuse in complimenting Wabash on the wiy they were treated while in Crawfordsville. They were treated well on the field and in the town, and Wabash cheerfully admits that she was out classed on the grid iron field there being no other excuse
Furinerft and Dry Woatlier. Farmers are concerned over the continued dry weather. They say there never was a time in central Indiana when the streams and wells in the country were so low. Wells that were never known to fail before have "gone dry," during the last few weeks. In some localities water for live stock is scarce. All the small streams in central Indiana are dry. The recent rains have revived the growing wheat, but they have not been heavy enough to replen ish the streams or wells. Farmers fear that if there should be hard freezing from this on. wilier for stock will be hard to find before the winter is far advanced.

Bloomington World: Saturday inlirniug there was a peculiar family at the depot. The family was composed of a father' mother and five children, of which four were bovs, the other a girl. The oldest child was fourteen and the youngest six years of age. This family started from lirown county, Texas, to Crawfordsville, Indiana, about four months ago, aud have been either walking or "bumming" their way 011 the trains all the way. They had been living on a farm in Southern Te*as but were compelled to come north by the drouth. They came into the city yesterday morning on a freight and left in the smoking car of the 10:10 train. While at the depot the children took charge of one of the waiting rooms and the platform. Two of the little fellows were sitting on the lloor playing marbles and the rest were practicing the rush through the crowd of bystanders. The kids' names are Thomas Hendricks Robertson, Grover Cleveland Robertson, Harry Robertson, Belle Robertson and Isaac Pusey Robertson. Their mother seemed to enjoy their way of travel and was further enjoying herself by frequent putts at a very strong pipe and sundry chews of tobacco. She stated that the family had walked two hundred and eightyfive miles of the journey, but that they would ride the rest of the way on the Monon. if the Monon was willing.
Going l^rum TexnN to Frankfort. On last Saturday evening the Marshal found a man, his wife and live children standing in the cold and snow at the Campbell corner. They stated that they were from Texas, and were working their way to Frankfort, where they had friends. They were taken to the jail and made as comfortable as possible, and given a supper. On Monday the township trustee sent them on to Frankfort. They had been sent here from Greencastle.
State Baakct Itall League.
At the recent Y. M. C. A. State convention a State basket ball league formed consisting of Crawfordsville, Terre Haute. Wabash College, Lafayette and Indianapolis. A schedule was made out by which all the games but one are to be played here. The rea son for this is that the other towns have no good place to play. The prospects are that we shall have some tine games of basket ball here this season. The first game is to be here on Thauksgiving evening with Indianapolis.
OF GENERAL INTEREST.
—The department of foreign a flairs (now the state department) was created in 1781, and it was provided that the secretary "shall have liberty to visit congress." The departments of finances, war and marine wero established in the same year, with a "superintendent" of finances and secretaries for the other offices. —Although cheap books of all qualities as to type, paper, binding* and literary workmanship are now a tlru? in this market, an audacious Philadelphia publisher sends over here and sells through agents at thirty-live cents each the flimsiest of ill-printed paper-bound books, beinj? the history of crimes long since reported iu the newspapers, but now revamped, amplified, and graced with sensational and virtuously indignant titles.—,NT. Y. Sun. —The tenement-instinct seems stronr even in the suburbs of New York, and a land owner who built a few graceful little cottages for rental twenty dollars a month, after having them lie empty on his hands, saw one of them sublet by a tenant on the tenemeuthouse plan. Neighboring high-shoul-dered structures, easily divided into suites of small apartments, rented promptly. The public taste was not. for the graceful cottage, but *or the cheapest place of shelter. —Kefore "Old Glory" was unfurled to the breezes the colonies had many and divers emblems and Hags. The standard of Great Hritain was used up to the time of the revolution, but each colony added to it some local distinguishing design. The colony of Massachusetts made use of the pine tree on her flags and coins, and this emblem eventually became famous. The armed ships of New York flew a white flag inscribed with a black beaver, which emblem is now on the arms of the Btate. —"Fruitarians*' are the latest novelty in the world of crauks. They are ascetic beings, who consider modern civilization far too luxurious, and therefore agree to live upon nothing but fruit and water, to live iu bare huts without any comforts and to wear as little clothing as possible. The society is headed by a retired German lieutenant, who has gone to the Sandwich islands to found a colony in some out-of-the way spot, where his disciples can follow out their doctrines undisturbed.
The first extra session of congre called by President John Adams March. 17'.'7, was convened to consiih threatened war with France. It assembled at Philadelphia, and John Ad ams appeared before it and made speech. JefVerson introduced the practice of communicating with congress by written message. He thought the presence of the executive, before congress might lead to undue interference with the people's representatives. JI is enemies said that he wrote his messages rather than spoke them, because he was an excellent writer and a rather poor speaker. —In England from the fourteenth century to the change of the calendar in 1752, the legal year began on March 2.*». and after the change was made much confusion in dates resulted before the matter was fully understood, Even yet a historical issue is sometimes clouded by the difference in modes of reckoning, and is thus made uncertain whether an event took place in the .year named or in that following. I The present beginning of the year on January 1, In the middle of the winter, I is not a natural but an entirely art!ficial starting point. The Greek year originally began with the winter solstice, as did the year of most northern nations.

Ar^There are many little things that one might do, if one chose, that would be conducive to health and long life." said a physician, in a recent conversation. "Wo are beginning to learn that the air is full of disease germs, and that we are continually inhaling them. For this reason it is advised that people keep their mouths closed as much as possible when going through districts where any eontairioti prevails or where there is decomposed animal or vegetable matter. Once in a while a person should take the trouble to clear the head out thoroughly after breathing air laden with nauseating smells, especially if they come from offensive matter of any sort.. Garbage and decaying vegetation arc prolific sources of disease. It would be a good plan if children were taught from their earliest childhood to use their handkerchiefs, giving the nose a vigorous blowing after encountering any vile odors, of course, no harm might, come from them: but. all the same, it is possible
