One more month or our winter school. It is whispered around that there is a scheme on foot to erect a 85,000 school building in or near Linden and we have been told the townehip will have to borrow every dollar of the money to build it with.
It reported that the republican leaders have about got all their money back they spent in champaign 4 years ago, in the way of advanced rail road freight, prices of coiTee and allot the necessaries of life, and as we are on the evo of another great campaign, they are coming down on the prices in order to hold the party vote and induce others to vote with them. People Bliould resist such scheme and give them a cold shoulder. Let us show to the world that the American people are not dummies.
We regret the utterance, such is the caso, that insteail of Christianity being elevated it seems to us it in lowered for years to come in this community. When people undertake to carrj water on both shoulders they nine times out of
ten make a failure. When a man who professes Christianity in all its glory and goes out among tho people to preach the gospel from the holy Bible, the book of all books, and is at the mercy of his brothers and sisters for financial support he should treat his fellow hearers with all duo respect, forgive thoir sins and be forgiven, use all do due courtesy to the iucmbors of the church, for as a nation without good moral society, fall to the mother earth. If a brother see a brother falling by tho wayside it is his duty to assist him to arise and help him on his way rejoicing. No person on the face of the earth is any greater friend to tho christian domain than your scribe at this place. It matters not what church, we say give people their own will to worship, the almighty supremebeing according to their own free will and dictations. Wo believe it is a minister's duty to encourage Christianity not to discourage it. For a discouraged mind is not responsible at all times for its action. It is an old saying a good leader in religious sorvices always accomplishes great good. He that is without sin cast the tirst stone.

DON'T.
Don't blame the course of study. Don't blame your predecessor. Don't blame the parents. Don't blame the pupils. Don't blame the school oiiicers. Don't blame the district. Don't blame the school house. Don't blame the school premises. Don't blame tho Deity, if you are a failure as a teacher. Miss
Please put Iva in the third reader Yours, This is tho way a note read to one of Montgomery county's tc-achers two weeks before the close of the winter term. Some people care but little for tho advancement of the school if they can obtain their own selfish end. Placing a pupil in a certain reader does not furnish mental capacity for the work of that grade, besides the loss of time to many others by the destruction of that grade.

H)*r xi 3 ill •, v31 Da bt was Paid. Thirty-six years ago H. E. Leek faded in a small produce business which had conducted for several years out on east Washington street. He settled as best he could with his creditors, and to one of them, John Lyon, to whom he owed S34, he gave his note for 89 and an English watch of a very peculiar design. Lyon moved out west and never made a demand on Leek to redeem either not or watch. Monday Mr. Leek was in Crawfordsville, and while talking with friends in a store in some way the story of the watch and note transaction was told. An old gentleman who had been standing near then remarked: "Thirty-six years ago a man gave me a watch and a note for a debt he owed me "What is your name?" asked Mr. Leek. "My name is John Lyon." was the answer. "Well my name is Henry Leek and I'd like to take up that note and get my watch."
The two old men went to Mr. Lyon's house, where the old watch and the note thirty-six years old were produced and handed over, Mr. Lyon accepting So for both. 11. E. Leek is sixty-one years old and is well known about town as supplying restaurants, hotels and private residences with chickens and eggs.—Indianapolis Sentinel.

Death of Goerge Shelton.
The Indianapolis Sentineljof Wednesday contained tho followingTsad intelligence of George Shelton, of Smartsburg, who went to that city last week to.hav» a tumor removed:
George Shelton, aged forty-one, died at St. Vincent's hospital yesterday morning from heart trouble. He was suffering with a cancerous growth in th# mouth and had just come from Crawfordsville in a very feeble condition to have Drs. Wands and Eastman perform an operation. They were about to do so when Shelton expired. One of the classes of the central college of physicians and surgeons was present to watch the operation. Dr. Wands had just taken hold of the growth in the mouth with a galvanic snare when the man died, lie was not under the inlluenco of anesthetics, which were not administered, owing to his weak condition and heart trouble.
Ladoga to the Front Again. Last Tuesday morning Mrs.jAnnie S. Miller, of Ladoga, through her attorney, E. E. Ballard, tiled with clerk Hulett a caveat to prevent the will of the late Alfred Dudloy Young from being pro bated. In her objection Mrs. Miller states that together with her brother Dudley Young, and sister Grace Younjj aro the granchihlren and only heirs of A. D.Young, and asserts that his eBtat% valued at $25,000, should be divided equally among them, subject to thj» claims of the surviving widow. They have reasons for believing that a pretended will is to be presented for probation by which they, the legal heirs, ans disinherited. The parties hail from Ladoga and a case that will outrival in magnitude the Young-Tobin caso is promised.
