Golden Wedding. Dr. Naylor and wife, of Darlington, celebrated their golden wedding on Wednesday, at which a large number of guests attended. Dr. Naylor was born in Charleston, Clark county, in 1819, coming there from Kentucky in 1799, In 1832 I. E. G. Naylor was apprenticed to Ebenezer Patrick, a printer at Salem, where he learned the tra e. He went from Salem to Danville, where he attempted to start a paper, and failing, came to Crawfordsville, ta'.:ing service with I. F. Wade, ths editor of the Crawfordsville Record, then the largest paper in Indiana. Mr. Wade, the way, is Btill living in Crawfordsville. In 1S43 Mr. Naylor returned to Clark county and established the Clark county Mirror. Here hji-'began the practice of ^edkiae:"'Later he sold

'TOT" and began the practice of

medicine in Camden, removing from there, after a short residence, to Darlington, where he has since resided. In 1845, while attendidg camp-meeting, DrNaylor met Miss Calista Huffman, a young lady who had just arrived from New York. It was a case of love at first sight, and in lest than three monthB they wire married. Nino children were born to them, two of whom were killed in buttle during the cu'il war.

It is not t:essary for us to speak of the merit.- of the I play, but we will say that the pvco will have an elaborate setting, ami our old friend. W. L, Richmond, is at home in the part of Rip. in fact, it is his maelerpiece. "The Did Farm Home"' that was presented here last April was a splendid success, 'this will be even I greater, and the fact that one half of the P. 0. S. of A. proceeds will be presented to the Orphans Jlci 11 make it worthy of a good housr

JauiCM A. .llount Candidate. IIo .James A. Mount's political aspirations are not dead, only sleeping, and since ho sees the material offering for governor, doubtless thinks that his chauces are likely as good as any of From the ludianapolis News we take the following extract: "The republican politicians here understand that James A. Mount, of Montgomery county, will, within the next few days, announce that he is -a candidate for the republican nomination for governor. He will be the twelfth man to enter the race, and party leaders think that there are still more to follow. Mr. Mount is a farmer, living near Shann ndale. For several, years he has been mixing politics with his farmiug. Ho ba6 served in the State Senate, and made a record that was satisfactory to his constituents. He was one of the tirst men in the State to bocome interested in the work of farmers' institutes, and for several years he has spent a good deal of time during the winter months lecturing to the farmers in the different counties. In this way he has extended his acquaintance. His political friends here believe it is possible for him to become ono of the strong candidates."

Republican Jamboree* The war between the rival factions of tho republican party in Indiana goes on merrily, but quietly and determindly. It is between Mouday,the present chairman of tho republican Slate committee, who wants to retain the position, and Een Ni'bakei, who desires to secure it. The war also involves the friends of Riley McKeen and thoso of Fairbanks, both of whom desire to be U. S. Senator to succeed Voorhees, if tho next legislature has a republican majority. Mouday is not proposing to allow Nebaker, with all bis alleged political shrewdness, to beat him, anil throughout the State, is conveying tho impression that it is Marion county politicians and a lot of men hanging around the hotels of Indianapolis, only, that are seeking to "down" him. This is having its effect, too, in maDy of the outside counties. Between the friends of McKeen and Fairbanks considerable enmity has already been created over their contest! and altogether some rich developments of republican scheming and dishonesty seems likely to be soon exposed.

The Mifliting of l'rnnkrort.

Since the purchase of the electric htfht plant of Frankfi rt by the Indiana Natural Oas and Illuminating Company two months ago, there have been negotntions pending for the purchase of the artificial gas plant by the natural gas company, b"t no sale has been effected. The citizens offer no objections to foreign capital having control of these plants, ihe sentiment seeming to be that perhaps better service is had if the plants are controlled by foreign capital. J. H. Dilke, of Indianapolis, superintended of the natural gas company, was here yesterday, looking over tho electric light plant, with a view of making improvement. He is also seeking a new contract with the city, the present contract expiring next year. The people are not satisfied with tho way in which tho city is lighted, the "moonlight schedule" being used, the lights burning until midnight. Ail of the neighboring cities have "all night" lighting. Several men bcrs of tho council favor the city owning its own electrie light plant, and the cost of one sufficient for the needs of the city is placed at 840,000.

1,767. John Kelley vs. City of Crawfordsville. Montgomery C. C. Petition for rehearing overruled. Gavin J' C. (1) Where the Supreme Court has expressly adjudicated that the question sought to be raised wasnotduly presented and thatthejurisdiction of the appeal was in this court, this court is necessarily bouyd by this adjudication. (2) It is provided that the Appellate Court shall be governed in all things by the law as declared by the Supreme Court of the State. (Sec. I.3G2, R.. S., 1894.) (3) Causes for a rehearing which possibly might have been applicable if presented to the Supreme Court to induce a revocation of an order of transfer are Dot tenable in this court,

Looking: lor Pastor. For some months past the members of the Presbyterian (Center) church have been seeking for a pastor to fill the position occupied by the latellev. R.J.Cunningham. Rev. S. S. Pryor, of Albert Lea, Minnesota, is to preach to-morrow morning and evening, and if the membership is satisfied with him ,-i call will be extended to him. Dr, Pryor is a man in the prime of life, and came originally from New England, having been at one time a professor at Oberlin College.

A New Flro Eater. Chas. Ruffner, a clerk of John Potts and a son of Frank Ruffner, "the natural born fool," last week undertook to do his eating tiro act. He saturated a cotton ball with gasoline and by accident spilled some of it on his face. Chas. then lit it with a match, and before he could put it out his face was badly burned into blisters, lie looked like be had been fighting the Darlington bloodhounds, and it is thought he will not fry the act again."

C3renl ltevivul 111 Greeneiislle. Greencastle is in the throes of a religious awakeuing that is without a parallel in its history. Elder Boyer, of Chicago, is conducting a series of meeting at the Christian church, which were begun three weeks ago, and over one hundred accessions have already resulted from his labor. The Loe««it-street M. E. church is also enjoying a revival that gives promise of equally good results.

IS WHAT NEW MARKET BURG-

LARS WERE LOOKING FOR

They Blow the Safe of Ermantrout & Childers, But were Probably

Frightened' Away on Account of the Explosion—The Window Glass

in the Front Part of the Store Broken.

Tuesday night thieves entered the etore of Ermentroui it Childers, at New Market, by taking out a pane of glass in the rear window and at once pr ceeded to drill holes in the safe door. After this was accomplished they blew the door off the hinges. The explosion was so ioud and severe that the glass in Jill the windows was broken out,and they were perhaps frightened away before they had time to blow the inside door and secure the money that was within. In the afternoon Mrs. Ermentrout drew S600 from a bank in this city to pay off her debts and being afraid of keeping it in her house, sho left it with Ermentrout & Childers, who also had the sazae amount in the sale. Several of the citizens heard the noise but. thought it was thunder, and failed to get up and investigate the cause of the noise.

Three or four of the drillB were found on the floor. It is supposed that the persons who undertook to rob the safe saw her draw the money from the bank and followed her. If she could think or know who saw her. with it, she could^ probably locate tho thieves, /They were surely not onto tho^^p^s or they would not have made

Have Abandonee of Gnu. Logansport is now supplied with au abundance of natural gas. The pressure has never been so low that the complaints were very numerous until -this fall, andJ bcSOr^e trouble was jprin^ cjpally on the main* west or the Eel river. Tho Dieterich-Proal syndicate now has control of the plant, and true to ite proiiiitie made a year ago, it has put in a pumping station. It is located about forty miles from this city, 6ix miles northeast of Center, in tho eastern edge of Howard county. The station was completed to-day. The last nut being screwed on to connect the pumps with tho field pipes late this afternoon. Tim pressu of gas in the city is now siI'oii^ and 1 ho outlying mains furnish more than a!i abundance of gas.

Tliej Needed Help. About six weeks ago a woman well knowu in this city w'.i around collect-' ing money, which sin.: said waB to help keep her husband, who is expected to die wiih consumption soon. Nearly every one she presented tho paper to subscribed arid she collectod quite a Bum of money. Shortly after this her mother died aud left her ubout §300, which came from a pension which she had applied for before her death. Tho way they are now squandering their money is by giving oster suppers with wine end beer combined, buying rings, now clothes, etc. Within sixty days her husba.'il will be dead and tho county will have the funeral expenses to pay. Such people shoul'.'. not bo aided!
