tract of land for the purpose of providing winter quarters for his stock and animals. Two buildings have already ben put up and enclosed aod work is progressing rapidly upon a third which is to bt) used for a show ring in which to train horses and riders. Of course everybody wants to see the animals and the lions that came near making their escape the other day. The large elephant, the baby elephant, the hippopototumus, lions and other animals are confined in one house, kept warm by stoves, and all of them are tirst-class specimens. The large elephant is one of the finest specimens in America.

Quite a number from this city were in attendance, including the P. O. S. of A. Commandery, of which the groom is a member. The bride is one of Lafayette's fairest daughters while the groom is among our best young business men, having been in the employ of Tannenbautn Bros, for a number of years.

The residence of Mrs. Minnie Ryan on west Main street, sometime on Wednesday night, WBB entered by th'ieves. They devoted their time altogether to the kitchen department of the house and stole all the meat, cakes, etc., prepared for a Thanksgiving day feast. Nothing elso would seem to have been taken, the thieves seeming to be especially hungry.

CRAWPORDSVILLE, INDIANA, SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 27. l«7.

HEARD ON THE STREETS.

E. C. Voris—"When 1 was in Indianapolis labt week, 1 went out to the asylum for tho insane, and incidontly called on Dr. Barnes. I was surprised to find him almost faultlessly dressed, he didn't have the appenrance of an insane man at all, and greeted me very cordially and familiarly. This manner I didn't continue but a few minutes, however, for he began berating his attendants and the officers in charge, and became almost violent, before I could pacify him by changing the subject. Ilis hobby is that he is beirg retained in the asylum that thivje men may get possession o' his property. While not on this subject he is rational, but is only a few momeiitd at a time. He is not considered dangerous and the attendants do not think his cas« hopeless although his improvement up to date has been scarcely perceptible."

Snm Johnson—"The different papers of the city have had me discharged from the position of mailing clerk on two or three different occasions, but you see I am still doing business at the old stand Say, do you know I think civil service is about the thing?"

Bob Smith—*'Tiie Kevikvv ruisrepresented me, the other day, when it said would quit the drug business to make the race for Mayor noxt spring. I expect to continue to dispense pills and paregoric right along, but, on the quiet and not for publication, I'll keep my eye on the Mayor's chair just the same, and see that it don't go begging for good material to fill it. See?" jfe ik

H. D. Vancl eave—"I see some out of town paper has suggested that 1 be made chairman of the next democratic central committeo. Now, I'll tell you I am up to my eyes in legal work and haven't had time to uive such a thing a thought, but—well. I'll see you later."

W. F. Ilulett—"In view of the city election next spring, 1 would like to make one suggestion and that is this: Sometime this wintor, or early in tbe spring, let all the business men in the city get together and nominate a business man for the office of Mayor, Then, of course, have all these men and all other good citizens, irrespective of party, support him, thereby insuring a good, clean business administration, a thing the city has not had for many, many year?. If the good people of the city will only do away with their little political prejudices for this one occasion, this much desired end can be accomplished. Push it along, won't you?"

THE FESTIVE TURKEY.

He Came High This Year, and in

Consequnce There Was Less of

Him Than in Common.

The prices for turkeys, locts per pound full dressed or 12J4 for half dressed, were higher this than frequently heretofore 011 Thanksgiving occasions, and iu consequnce people indulged less iu the luxury of turkey and cranberries than usual. Many of these turkeys were purchased by the grocers fom the farmers alive for 7 andS cents per pound, and .the advanced prices aBked after they had gone through the pickers hands were considered tio high for mott people's pocket books. It is probable that the prices will decline somewhat and many of the grocers have yet a good stock of turkeys on hand.

THE FIRST SERVED

First to see him was Capt. Hart, deputy auditor of state, and a candidate for the shoes or hoots of his chief, bu he had no more than shaken hands with Wingate when ex-Lieutenant Governor Hanna grabbed hio hand and made it three. Charles Williams, formerly ol Crawfordsville, but now of Indianapolis, who was connected with Wingate in boosting Gen. Wallace last winter, made it four in short order Robert Brown, deputy secretary of state, of whom the same can be said as of Capt. Hart, did not allow himself to bo left out of the ring Rbody Shiol burst through the front door and was heard to ask, "Where is he?" Dave Olive, who now hopes he has insured for himself a pension for life, Bided into the circle to laugh heartily at the jokes, and even Judge Baker (who has been mentioned) was not averse to stopping and shaking hands with thin pame farmer.

TROUBLES OVER A NOTE

Between Two Brothers Causes an

Expensive Suit.

Two brothers, Henry and Thomas McDaniel, of Franklin township, have had their "day in court." and it was last Monday in a suit in which Henry McDaniel sued Thomas for a not9 due since 1877, and bad be waited a month or two longer it would have been outlawed. Thomas McDaniel, it was alleged, in 1877 t-ave his note for $333 at 10 per cent, interest but claimed that ho gave it in 1873 and that it was out lawed. Capt. McClaskey, who drew up the note, testified that it was in 1877, and this testimony saved the plaintiff. The note was lost Henry claimed by having his pocket picked some years ago at a republican rally in Crawfordsville. The defendant claimed he had maae several payments on the note, while the plaintiff, Henry McDaniel, claimed he had never received a cent. The jury gave the plaintiff a judgment for $425. He sued for 81,000.

Jointly Indicted.

)7TH YEAR.- NO 16.

A

Tho U. S. Grand jury in session at Indianapolis thie week returned indict merits against Will Sidener and Guy Steele, for robbing tho mails at this place a6 heretofore noted. Hon. M. D. White and Frank Dice have been employed by the relatives of these men to defend at the trial which begins next Tuesday. The general impression that both of these formerjpostal employees cannot es cape conviction, end their sentencee will be two years imprisonment at least with heavy fines.

A Barn Burned.

A barn belonging to George Coone, a farmer living near Wingate, was destroyed by fire last Friday night together with four head of horses, hay, grain and farming implements. The cause of the fire is unknown, but it is presumed was the work of an incendiary. The loss was about $1,200 with $800 insurance.

SCARCITY OF OAS.

Cold Weather Seems to Effect the

Supply.

Already as the season advances complaints are being made indifferent parts '•f town of the scarcity of gas. It seems to be an excellent warm or mild weather fuel, but very poor when the cold commences to pinch. Even week before last, at number of houses in the east part of town, the inmates were compelled to skirmish around for wood with which to do their cooking, the fiow of gas being so light as to be totally inadiquate for the purpose. If people commence to complain this early in the season. what must be expected in January and February, vvhon genuine winter is at band. There will probably be more complaints this vviuter^han ever before, and there will probably be more wood anil coal burned than for several seasons past. The truth seems to be that the company has too many consumers along the line from Sheridan to Crawfordsville, or the supply is gradually growing loss, but look out when cold weather arrives for unless you havs coal and wood to use in plenty, you will shiver often for the gas is bound to be short at times.

Candidates for Congress. A correspondent of the Sentinal from Frankfort, this week speaks of several probable candidates for congress from this district:

The congressional tight in the ninth district is getting hot. The Hon. C. B. Landis will be unable to be secure onethird of the delegates trom Clinton county. His course thus far has won for him the contempt of his former best friends. The same is very largely true in all the counties of the district.. Even in his home county (Carroll) hislriendshave deserted him by scores, and in view of the fact that his vote in that county last fall was next to the lowest on all the ticket this means much to him. It is not uncommon in all parts ot the district to hear those who last year aided him say that if he asks them for advice they will frankly advise him nottoaska renomination, for he cannot secure it.

Quite a number of democrats are after the nomination. J. B. Cbeadie will fight hard for the combined nomination again, but against him will be Dan W. Siius of Fountain county, Sam Ralston of Boonp, James M. Fippin of Tipton, Thomas Foley of Montgomery and Charley Pollard of Carrol'.. The populists will have a candidate of their own next year. Cheadle is talked of, but if he does not declare himself there are at least four persons that will be announced. The party is strongly mid-dle-of-the-road in this district, having two papers, the Rossville Journal and the Tipton Dispatch. Both insist that only a populist will receive their support, wheather it be Cheadle or another.

Dr. Lane and wife had a Crystal wedding reception at their residence on High street on Monday evening.
