The little green bug louse or aphide that has appeared on the wheat, duriug the week past and alarmed the farmers for fear that it may destroy the cereal is not a damaging fellow as the experiment of our brethren oyer in Kentucky can testify. Three weeks ago it appeared there during the wet season similar to ours, but as 8oou as the sun began to shine it died doing no damage. It is innocuous and will be gone in time for the farmer to find that the corn is growing to fast.
That Prof. W. N. Lake, lias performed a wonderful teat of endurance is acknowledged by the medical profession of our city, and as we go to press he is walking even too fast for any ordinary pedestrian to keep in his wake.

Prof. Lake has made some wonderful feats, walking 3,000 quarter miles in as many quarter hours. He speaks highly of his treatment while in the city and his tent shows that the ladies have remembered him by the profuse decoration of bouquets. When visited late Friday night he was not trying to sleep and says he lias not slept a total of one night since lie began to walk Wednesday morning a week ago, and this has been taken in not over twenty minutes at a time. Collections will be taken up for him to-day and he will visit the business men personally Monday. Mr. Lake is a pleasant gentleman and: his wonderful endurance shows what a matt cau do if hewill only take proper care
ot
himself
and avoid habils of dissipation. He has received messages from friends at Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Vincennes and Evansville, all congratulating hitn on his success here.*gjg|

We would rather see Montgomery county solidly democratic than the way it now seems to stand but hope that in the distribution of offices the republicans will find men strictly in accordance with the party's wishes and not half way men, the same with what democratic offices are secuied. Be what you are and don't be ashamed for the world to know it
T. N. Moody will take his house moving apparatus to a point south of Portland Mills, to remove a strange object discovered on a farm over there. It is in the shape of a turtle, about seven feet long, and the estimated weight is 50,000 pounds. Some think the animal is a fossil turtle or glyptodon, others that it is only a curious figured boulder.—Waveland Independent.
There is one merchant in Crawfordsville who is actually too mean to breathe freely. He professes to be a christian and has about as much good his carcass as there is in the brain of a pewee. He treats all men who deal with him as if they were brutes, only last week taking a card handed him by a traveling man and throwing it in the street remarked, "This is the way I treat such fellows." Strange that some farmers would trade with such a man and stranger that a man cannot respect fellow beings with at least the kindness and respect due fellow man.
The Benton county lion has come out of its Rip Van Winkle sleep and is invading the pastoral quiet of this county in the vicinity of Shadeiand. Chickens, turkeys, pigs, lambs and even calves have fallen prey to his voracious appetite. He lias not been seen but he has been heard. His cries resemble those of a child in distress and give color to the belief that the animal Is a panther. A hunting party went out last Saturday but did not find the marauder,Qlt Is quite probable that it is another Lynx.j&The peace of mind of the farmers will not bo restored until the hide of the "varmint" is hung on a polo to dry.—Lafayette Journal.

Some of our readers perhaps do not understand the wonderful feat which Prof. W. N. Lake is performing. It is a wonderful power of endurance, as he hap walked a half mile every half hour since Sam, Wednesday, June 12. All the sleep he has had was the time between walks, which could not be longer than 20 minutes. Up to Wednesday of this week he had only slept about six hours, which, of course, was broken, and could hardly be considered rest.

The game was called at 1 and was a continuous round of wrangle, as the Veedersburg boys and their friends stemed determined to win the game fair or foul. It was broken up in the 7th Inning, the score being 6 to 4 in favor of Crawfordsville, and the game given to our boys. Danny Sullivan pitched a good game, striking out 10 of the 18 put outs.

Davis, while Charley was at his post of duty, a tall, spare man dressed In a Prince William coat and plug hat, appeared at the door of his residence with a basket of fine large strawberries and presented them to the fair young bride with "the compliments to herself and husband, of the tallest, ablest and ugliest member of the Crawfordsville bar. Who this stranger was was a query to Mrs. D., but it afterwards turned out that it was none other than our well known attorney, M. E. Clodfelter, who by the way has not only proven, himself a succcss in the law, but lie has one of the finest fruit gardens in the city, the product of his own skill and labor.
