CLASS OP'90.

Make Their Bow and Stand Beady to Face the Stern Realities of Life. The annual commencement of theHigh School of Crawfordsville took place at Music Hall Thursday evening. The class numbered 24, twenty of them being young ladies and four gentlemen, two of the latter being colored. The programme was the best ever rendered here in years. The class of '90 will stand as a monument of glory wi:h which succeeding classes may vie. By eight o'clock Music Uall was filled to its utmost capacity with beet representation of Athenian culture ever assembled in that house. A little after eight o'clock, the orchestra began playing an overture, after which the following program was carried out:

PROGRAMME.

Prayer Rev. G. P. Fuson In the end will slavery have proved a curse Henry L. Brown TheRaces in America Wicklifle Smith A Century's Progress.. .Howard ISvart Griffith Class History Parker Willis Graduating Exercises of the Girls of the Class. Presentation of Diplomas 0. D. Humphrey Presentation of Prizes Superintended Benediction Rev. E. T. Lane

Henry Brown and Wicklifle Smith, the colored boys, acquitted themselves very creditably. The thought and composition in their orations showed careful study, each handling his subject in a very able manner. Howard Griffith had a Well prepared oration and delivered it In a very forcible manner, growing very eloquent at the close. Parker Willis is entitled to the plum on his class history, which was written in a humorous style aud elicited much applause. The young ladies part of the program was something entirely out of the routine in such exercises and was greatly appreciated by the audience. To a slow march twenty beautiful young ladies, dressed in pure white without ornaments, marched on the stage and began reciting a medley of several familiar poems beginning with "Poe's Raven." This part of the programme was a delightful surprise, and the efforts to get away from a chestnut custom is very commendable on the part of the girls. The entire class then entered the stage and Prof. 0. D. Humphrey in a neat speeh presented the diplomas. Prof. Dunn then came forward and announced the awarding of class honors. The scholarship of the Indiana State University was awarded to Miss Sadie Britton for making the best average during the four years' course. The scholarship of Adrian College, Mich., for the best average during the senior year, was awarded to Miss Flora Work. The Wabash College scholarship, open only to the boys, was taken by Parker Willis, The other members of the class are: Susan Katharine Beck, Elizabeth Railsback Binford, Henry L. Brown, Harriet Ibelia Detchon, Katharine Stockdale Fullenwider, Howard Griffith, Mary Hills, May Kline, Maud McMechan, Ora Moffett, Margaret Morgan, Nell Nicholson, Ota Beaie Nicholson, Ada May Ohaver, Daise Robertson, Minnie E. Scott, Wicklifle Smith, Mary Myrtle Somerville, Jennie Belle Suinan, Martha Binford Thcmas, Mayme Wise.

After the exercises at Music Hall the white portion of the class together with invited guests repaired to the Y. M. C. A. armory where a delicious supper was spread and of which four hundred partook. The crowd then adjourned to the K, of P. hall where the reception and dance were given and quietly reigned supreme until a late hour when the throng adjourned crying praise to the class of '90.

Fun in Buck Town.

To keep abreast with the dizzy whiil in Athenian society this week, the elite of Bucktown instituted a series of entertainments for the benefit of the gang. The rumble of the cab did not greet the eart of the denizens in that classic neighborhood, the silken sash and ice cream smile were strangers to the Bucktown belle, who, instead of lovely Hyacinths and Marshal Neil roses carried exceedingly large twigB from broad-spreading oaks and blood in the eye. Bucktown was at war. The matinee began on Tuesday at the home of one the highmoguls living near Spring street, who concluded to break the monotony of life by wiping the earth with his better half. A sister-in-law, seeing the odds were ten to one against the wife, grabbed an ax and throwing the woight of her mobile form against the door, broke into the room and rushed at the brutal husband, who sought safety in flight To give a sensational shape to the fracas, the wife decided to drown her sorrow and jumped into the cistern. It required the assistance of the entire neighborhood to land her onjterra firmaand pump the acqua pura from her stomach. The husband returned, peace was restored and they are again as happy as a pair of cooing doves. So goes the world.

The quietness of the aristocratic suburb was again broken on Wednesday night near the Monon depot by a general free-for-all, get therc-Eli-fight in which whites, blacks, male and females, took a band. Clubs, rocks, guns and bowies took a prominent part, and, for a time, a phosphorescent cloud obliterated a view of the blue dome in heaven. No arrests. Such is high life in Bucktown.

Krugg-Robb.

Among the leading society events of the season was the marriage of Harry Krugg to Laura Belie Robb at Center church last Tuesday afternoon where had assembled about 800 relatives and friends. About 5 o'clock the beautiful strains of the wedding march pealed forth and the wedding party appeared. Dr. Rankin and Hal Eusminger preceded the bride down the east aiEle who leaned on the arm of Grant Manning, of South Bend. In the west aisle, Will Martiu and Tom Noble preceded the groom leaning on the arm of John Olwin, of bay ton, O. Meeting at the altar the young couple were pronounced man and wife by Rev. Cunningham a very beautiful and impressive ceremony. After the ceremony a wedding supper was enjoyed, after which the bride and groom left for South Bend where they will remain a ehoit time and then go to Benton Harbor where they will soon begin housekeeping. Mr. and Mrs. Krugg have the best wishes of a host of friends, and the REVIEW bids them God speed.

Pettit is Here.

On last Wednesday evening Sheriff McKee arrived from Lafayette having in charge Rev. W. F. Pettit, whose trial for wife murder was venued from Tippecanoe county here last week. Upon arrival of the train the party Immediately took a hack and were driven directly to the jail where they were received by Sheriff McClaskey. Mr. Pettit did not wear hand-cuffs and looked more like a friend of Sheriff McKee than his prisoner. He waB assigned cell No. 5 where he will remain until our court decrees otherwise. The prisoner is looking very well considering his long confinement. In answer to a REVIEW man who called upon him Thursday, he said that bis health was very good, but, when an attempt was made to pry into his trouble, he refused to answer saying we would always be welcome as a friend but not as an interviewer. When told that the sentiment here was not so strong against him as reported, he replied that he was glad of it and thought he would have justice done him in Montgomery county.

The individual in town who acquired considerable notoriety a few weeks ago, by alleged brutal treatment of his son, but which he rigorously denied, seems to be falling into old habits again, judging from reports of citizens living on Walnut street, who assert that on Tuesday morning he was seen pursuing his son, calling him a thief, and threatening to shoot biin. This statement will this time be backed by some one other than a woman.

We clip the following from a Terre Haute paper iu reference to Doug. Barnes, at one time a member of our famous ball team.
