The Shadow Detective.
A great sensation was created in the city of New York, in the year 187S, by the disappearance of a well-known lady. Every effort was made to discover her whereabouts. The services of detectives were enlisted but no trace of her could be found, On the detective force was a keen, silent man, who was known by his associates as "The Shadow Detective." As a last resort, the daughter of the missing lady secured his services. With ingenuity and skill he set to work. At this time there was in the city of New York a band of Italians called the Padrones, who brought hundreds of children from Italy, and sent them in the streets to beg ond play musical instruments, reaping a rich harvest from their work. The play of "The Shadow Detective" is founded on the aobve facts. His search for the lady in high and low life, and through the Italian dens, assuming all manner of disguises, escaping death by a miracle, finally rescuing the mother, and also the daughter(who in the meantime has been stolen), form one of the most thrilling chapters in the annals of crime.
This is not a fictitious story, but a true one in every respect—the names only are changed. Nearly all the characters are alive to-day, and "The Shadow Dective" is an honored guest at the home of the lady he rescued from a lunatic asylum.
Don't fail to see this great play.— Music Hall, Nov. 18.

MinerB Present Unbroken Front.
Advices from various points show hat the striking coal miners of Clay county are presenting an unbroken front, and if there is. a shaft in active work throughout the district it has escaped the attention of the State oflicers. This week there was amass meeting at Clay City, which was addressed by President Cummesky and which resulted in the miners resolving to stand by the strikers. The State oflicers report that several block operators, as well as an equal number of bituminous operators, have expressed a willingness to concede the advance, and President Cumnieskey is credited with saying that all that prevents work being resumed is the universal agreement, by which none of the strikers can accept re-employment if the whole number is not provided for. Several of the operators have taken advantage of the strike to cancel contracts.

The southern part of the county was treated to a little sensation this wcok in the shape of an elopement. Joseph A. Hicks is a beardless barber who scrapes faces at New Market. Miss Nannie Goslin was a chipper young girl who lived with her parents in Brownsvalley. Between Joseph and Nannio there sprang up a feeling of admiration which soon ripened into full bloom love. The young lady's parents enterod a vigorous kick on the cooingsof theso young doves. But to no effect. Joseph could not live without Nannie, and to Nannie life would be a dreary existence without her Joseph and hence an elopement was planned. Accordingly Tuesday morning Miss Goslin left, ostensibly for Torre Haute, but she alighted from the train at Guion where she met her lover and the two took the I. D. & W. train for Indianapolis where they were married the same evening. The deed is done now and the best thing the old folks can do under the circumstances is to kiil the fatted calf and invite the prodigals to return and partake thereof.
Paying Old Fines.
In January, 1881), Michael and John I hiiloy, of Waveland, were fined on a grand jury indictment for frequenting gambling rooms. A year later Abner Cooper, of the same place, was lined for disturbing a meeting. Each of tho men paid a portion of their fines and wero allowed to go free on a promise to pay up in the near future. It appears the gentlemen made no further effort to liquidate the claims against them and the matter run on until Sheriff Bible took charge of affairs. Mr. Bible is deter mined not to act as Sheriff in name only, but will show to his constituents that they made no mistake in supporting him, and as a result is probing through tho books looking up monies due the county through old fines and otherwise. Ho made a good beginning in the above cases. Wallace Brannon went to Waveland Wednesday night and returned with his men Thursday morning. Twoot them paid the old scores while the other made ample provision for tho same. This is a good move on the part of

Might Have Been Worse.
Tico Liter came very near crossing over the dark river last Tuesday. Ho was returning from this city to his home in a wagon, which besides himself contained two young thorougbred calvesWhen lie approached the Nicholson crossing on the Monon, which is ono of the most dangerous in the state, bo stopped and listened for an approaching train. Heaving nono he drove on the crof.fiing but. was horrified to find a rapidly approacl-ing passenger train not a dozen yards foul him. fie whipped up his foam but .the engine struck the rear end of the wagon :t :1 threw vehicle, man. calves and ah into the ditch. Both calved were killed out right, tho wagon demolished but fortunately Mr. Liter and tho team escaped with slight injuries. The train stopped and backed to lend what, assistance was necessary. Mr. Liter will^bring suit to recovor damages.
The charge is being' made that the Royal Baking
Fowc^r contains ammonia. We would have supposed that
tl)3 emphatic condemnation of ammonia baking powders
"by the most eminent physicians throughout the laud, and
the fact of the three leading chemists of Minnesota mak
ing their report to the Senate Committee recently showing
that bread baked with the "Royal' contained ammonia
and the hostility now being manifested by the public
against all ammonia and alum baking powders would have
driven them permanently from the market.
In view of the fact that Baking Powder has become
an indispensable article in every kitchen, it is gratifying
to know that there are brands in the market to which
suspicion of any kind has ever attached. Dr. Prices
Baking Powder is a pure cream of tartar powder
free from every taint of ammonia, alum or other harmful
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is reported by all authorities as free from Ammonia, Alum, or any other adulterant. In fact, the purity of this ideal powder has never been questioned.
