A sf»cit*ty for the prevention of cruelty to animals is certainly needed to operate on •me individuals in this locality. The teamsters hauling saw-logs from the country four and six miles north-west of the city would be good examples to commence with. The immense loads they compel their poor raw-boned horse to draw is pitiful. The logs are oak, green and very heavy, and the poor animals look as if they were ready to drop dead from exhaustitn. A few of their teamsters show some humanity to their dumb brutes, but many of them appear to exhibit uo feeling

INDIANA, SATUKDAV, OCTOBER 20,1889.

A 1 l'J|i I,,

It was a merry puity that left Crawfordsville Saturday afternoon, Oct. 5th, via the I. & W. route, for Washidgton l. C., to intend the Knight Templars conclave. Tin route chosen was over the o. I. & W. routeto Spriuglield, ., thence over the famous and picturesque B. it O. Ry., the p:rty occupied a Man Boudoir 1 and ajWagoner slei-pei and spent Sunday in issing through '.he famous country that that route traverses. It was a feast of beautiful scenery and the entire party gazed at the towering mountains until they were exhausted in their eager anxiety to see all na'.-.ire's beauty, The foliage was tinged with Autumn's beauties and we swiftly speed through the villages and cities situated in some nook and engulfed by towering mountains over brooks and rivers, as they struggled through the valleys given by nature's handiwork. It was the expression of all "great is the haudiwork of God" aud grand is the country traversed by the famous B. Jc. 0.

route. The summit of the mountains was readied at Cumberland, Mil., and while the train stopped for a few moments you could have seen Hoosiers all over the country enjoying the bracing air, thousands of feet higher than the Wabash valley famous for snakes and chicken pox, The country evidently was made for but one tiling aud that, was in furnishing scenery and ail abode for people who wanted to live in seclusion, so that no neighbor could talk back over the garden fence. We passed through the famous oil regions of Pennsylvania and the scenes put to shame our two derricks that stood as a monument of enterprise in attempting to secure a long felt want, natural gas. But they do not get gas. It is oil, and every man who owns a lot has an oil well oil it. The farmers having as many as a dozen wells. Harper's ferry was reached as the shades of night began to hide the view and as the party had passed the day so industriously it did not possess that keen appreciation so deserving for this historical spot. But we look view of the ipiiiiut old town as it seemingly climbs to the top of Maryland heights. John Brown's fort lias dissapeared, but tiie old house he occupied still stands though it is soon to lie removed to make way for more modern enterprise as they do not seem to appreciate loyalty in that county as much as we Hoosiers do. The average small boy of Harpers Ferry, is the only enterprising part of the dead town aud he is still selling brick from the old fort even if lie lias to walk two miles over the mountains to get them. By purchasing five cents worth of green chestnuts of a white headed citizen who knew more about the place than any-'ue living, we were confidentially informed that the brick and relics were manufactured for the occasion and we regret to Bay that Postmaster Bonnell purchased oue. As we leave Harper's Ferry wo see the great

Potomac river force its way through the inoun-tains-aD'4,(!ie B. & O. company takiug advantage of its efforts goes through them just as if tiie river had no monopoly on the route. The party arrived in Washington Sunday night. Monday the Kight Templars ownfw*the town and a poor unfortunate western editor would as soon compared himself with the Washington monument as a Knight with his uniform on. There were thousands of them and we do believe they even surprised themselves at the magnitude of their number. They were as a rule men who are the axletree of our nation, honorable, influential representatives from every state in tiie union and we are proud to say that Crawfordsville comniandery, No. 25, with F. L. Snyder in command, had no reason to feel ashamed of its drills, their good looking men, and the grand treatment and respect shown them. Truly Crawfordsville ranked with the. foremost and there was not a Knight but what accredited them witli tiie leaders of our country.

or Washington the capitol of our country. It is a great and beautiful city aud we all have reason to.feel proud of it. A Frenchman by tiie nauiefof Major L'Kufant who served in the Revolutionary war originated the plan of thocilj. The Capitol being in the center of the city, the streets running east and west are called after tiie letters of the alphabet while the avenues after tiie states several being added since, In 1SI0 or soou after tiie survey of the district aud tiie planing of the city, the population was 8,208 which has steadily increased until it is now 200,000. The United States Capitol like the Capitui of ancient Rome stands upon a hill commanding a view westward pronounced by all great travelers as being one of the most beautiful ever seen. The Capitol extends 751 feet 1 inches in length. The greatest breadth including the steps of the extension is 324 feet auii the whole covers an area of three and one half acres aud its cost] to the present time @13,000,000. The center is built of sand stone, painted white, from an island In Virginia. The extensions of marble from Massachusetts aud the marble columns of the extension of which there is one hundred, are from Maryland. The dome is of iron painted white surmounted by the statue of freedom, a bronze figure ltl£ feet high. Tiie tip of the feather of this statue is 287 feet above the base line of the building. The grounds cover many acres and are kept in grand style, having walks and drive ways while the foliage is the finest our country affords, where each avenue intersects tiie grounds and surrounding it are several line and costly statues. A monument commending the important service of the navy at the head of Pennsylvania street, cost $25,000. Grenougli's statue of Washington cost §45,000. As you enter the Capitol building at the south end you find a marble group called Discovery and oue called Civilization, They cost §48,000 and wlieu you start to enter you see tiie famous Roger's Bronze door. This is the main central door of tiie building. It is 17 feet heigh 9 feet wide aud weighs 20,000 pounds. It contains several panels all having some story of American history and cost $30,000. We then enter tiie rotunda wliich occupies tiie center of the Capitol. It is 97 feet in diameter and 300 feet in circumference and is 180 feet high. Surrounding tiie circuit are eight pictures which costs a total of $80,000 and above them are mauy more paiutings, the work mostly of an artist who died before lie had completed hiB task, while a fresco covers the belt of the lOtunda which is said to be the moBt perfect

in the world, besides all this there are many ment IHni' com.' smaller works and relievos to attract the vis- heigliili of'rs*. Ti ei itor and be an expense to the country, one Cocjll i, painting "h, Pluiimis Cnum" costing only igSSt.iiOO. One of the strange but interesting parts of this rotunda are the whispemig gallery anil the strange echos.

000 pounds. Tiie old ballot representatives __ is occupied by statues and portaits of the favorite sou's of the different, states according to a request made to congress several year ago. There is seemingly no end to the many interesting objects in this buildiug and space forbids mentioning them all. There are paintings iu every room costing from ten to thirty thousand, the Crawford's Bronze door costing §56,495. The library of congress containing (500,000 volumes ami the Senate chamber, but we must leave it for other points of interest.

There are many reservations kept by the Government ill Washington among the most prominent, the Presidents grounds on which are the presidential mansion, the treasury, war, navy aud state departments. It contains 83 acres. The Capitol grounds on which are the Capitol, Botanic) garden, Smithsonian Institute, the agricultural department and a railroad depot. It contains 227 acres. The Parkon wliich is the engaving bureau which cost §'500,000, the Arsenal Grounds when* Lincoln's murderers were hung, and fifteen other renervauves or less importance. There is a great many ooen squares in the city, till being named after some statue that commemorates the 'Memory of an honored dead,of which McPherson Square with a statue costing §15,000, Farragut^ipiare statue §20,000, Scott. Place statue §37,000,

Franklin Square, where tin? water is furnished the While House from a tine spring. Lafaveiie Square is in front of the White House and has a statue of General Jackson which cost §50,0110,

The avenues are named after twentv-one stales, Indiana being accorded a posiiion on the list. Tiie Presidential mansion is one mile aud a half from the capital. It is hi nit of the yellow freestone painted white, is two stories high, 170 feet long and 80 rL-el wide. It is unnecessary to say anything of the rooms, as every school hoy is familiar with the stories of the East room, the Blue room and th Ited room. The first building was occupied hi 1800 by President John Adams, and August, 1814, it was burned by the British, hut was rebuilt by the same architect the next year aud cost §301,1015. The stables and eonsc-iVv tory attached cost §72,07 l.

Of the many departments, the Mate War and Navy is a line building and is superolv furnished, which has heeii erected since 1S7I and completed in laSI, at a cost of §10,1511,000.

The Treasury department is a monster bui'diug, costing §0,837,722, and is made or Vi:ginia and Massachussetts stone. There has been two L'. S. Treasury buildings destroyed by lire, one in 1814, and one on March, 31, 1833, and the present one was commenced iu 1831) 011 a site selected by President Andrew Jackson and was completed 111 1811. In tins building is kept the money o| the. nation, and it actually makes a tellow feel nervous to s^e so much of the evil ihat we are all struggling for. The State, War aud the Soldiers' ljoine is a beautiful tract of 500 acres with line buildings. It cost §200,000, with several miles of driveways. Several or the Presldenss have spent the heated season 111 the grounds. There is also a statue or General Scott on the grouuds that cost §18,000. Joining it is the National Military cemetery, established listil. It is a sad memorial of the war. there being 5153 Union and 271 Confederate soldiers interred there. Un a hill west of the President's home is situated the National Observatory, which'is under the direction of the Navy department, and its present rank is with the foremost of tiie world. There is in this place the largest telescope in the woild, costing §47,000, wilh §11,000 inn dome covering it. It weighs six tons. The Postollice department and the Department of the Interior are large spacious buildings, tiie latter costing §2,7JOO,OlJO, In

December, 183ti, a lire consumed the building then occupied by the Patent Oilice and destroyed all the models or what machinery, 10,301. that had accumulated during the period Hi years. Another (ire occurred December 21, 1877, and mauy thousand patent* were destroyed, and now they only accept plans of a model for tile, but should you visit that building you would think there were enough models. There seems to be no end to them aud you can look at the inventive testimonials until you tiro. The Pension building is another important place to visit, and when you enter this grand monument of respect to th' heroes and their families, you caniAit help but bow in revereuce to your country for the appreciation of their loyalty. It has only lately been completed and is occupied by thousands or diligent clerks who seemingly have a mountain of work before them. It was in this building that the inaugural hall was held. The Government Printing Office, which is the largest in the world, covers almost a square. Congressional Cemetery is another interesting place. It was laid out in 1807, aud now occupies 30 acres, it is called Congressir ai Cemetery because there are sites allotted there for the intermeut ot members of Congress who die in office, and even if not buried there, a monument is erected to their memory. The Smithsonian Institute, which cost §150,000 is a beautiful building and an interesting place. The money to build it and purchase the grounds was given by au illegitimate child of an English Duke. The National Museum is located hero and the relic crank cau feast for weeks.

There is one place in the city every westerner will visit and that is the Washington Monument. It is a white marble Obelisk, situated 011 a bluff on the Potomac. It is the spot where General Washington dictated his choice for the erection of a statue which the Coutitinental Congress had voted for his service. The association was formed in 18S5, the monu-

Lack of timely advertising prevented the court room from being packed, last night, to hear tariff reform speeches by Congressman E. V. Brookshire and M. W. Lee, secretary of the state. However, the room was comfortably filled, and a noticeable feature was that the major portion of the audience was made up of laboring men. Our Congressman improves with time and made a very pretty speech. Mr. Lee held his listeners for some time with a strong argument iu favor of tariff reform.— Brazil Times.
