CRAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1898
A SANTIAGO HERO.
Charley Doyel, a Crawfordsville
Boy, Has Seen Real War.
Charley Doyel, of the l(5th U. S. infantry, arrived in the city last Saturday on a thirty day's furlough to visit relatives. Of all the Crawfordsville boys who went to war to kill a Spaniard Doyel is the only one, perhaps, who had the pleasure of pumpiDg leau into the Dons. His regiment was in the thickest of the light at Santiago, his description of which is graphic and exciting. He eayB that when his regiment planted the stars and stripes on San Juan hill the bullets l'ell about them like hail, wounding and killing mary, although ho escaped without a scratch. With sickness and fever, however, he did not fare so well and was several times in the hospital. He describes the sufferingi of the soldiers us something awful. 'It wasn't Spanish bullets wc feared," he said, "but the continuous rains, intense heat, improper food and bad sani tary condition of the camp". That's what killed most of the poor boys.'' He said when the troops entered the city of Santiago the sight was one he would never forget. The streets were full of half-starved, sick and dying Spanish soldiers, while every house was a hospital. He brought back with him a most interesting collection of Spanish shells and other relics. Doyel is just recovering from an attack of malaria and is pale and emaciated.
Another Midland Rumor. A special from Anderson to the Cincinnati Enquirer says: "Through what was considered perfectly reliable sources it
IB
understood
that a deal has been closed whereby Crawford Fairbanks, the Terre Haute millionaire, and M. R. Williams, general manager of the strawboard taust plants, have purchased a very large part of the stock in the Chicago and Southeastern railway, and will assume control. It has been controlled by Ilarry Crawford, of Chicago. It reaches from Brazil, the center of the Indiana coal fields, to this city, and is being extended through the gas belt to Muncie. It is also understood that" it is to be run to Fairbank's coal mines, and the two men are figuring on natural gas giving out and opening a wone'ful coal traffic."
A Hoboe Dies in Jail.
Thursday afternoon an aged tramp giving the name of Henry Williams was found lying in the gutter near the electric light plant and was taken to jail si k. The old man was found to be suffering from running sores over his body, besides being covered with lice, and altogether he was a most »epuleive customer. He relused to answer any questions further than to give the name above, Friday night he died and was buried in the potter'6 field Saturday.
Monon Not Absorbed. An official of the Monon lines said yesterday that were there any foundation for the statement that the Monon was to be aosorbed by the Big Four, work on the expensive nine-mile cut-off at Bedford would doubtless be suspended and the joint arrangement between the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Daytoo as to freight depots at Indianapolis would have been abandoned. Tnese improvements will cost in the neighborhood of §100,000.
Add Was Disgusted.
A. 1'. Hanna attended the populist meeting at Cincinnati this week, and canie home very much disgusted. He sayB the meeting was intended only for a conference, and when a handlul ot them seized control and turned it into a nominating convention, a large majority of those present walked out of the hal1 and went home.—Waveland Independent.
"John's Best" Wins.
Mrs, Eli Armentrout secured the barrel of Hour at the fair offered by Mr. John Bickhart, of the city flouring millB, for the best loaf of bread baked from his brand of ffour, known as "John's Best." This loaf was also in open competition and secured the ribbon over an excellent display of bread, most of which had been made from spring wheat flour.
Is Tired of Charley.
Jennie Caldwell is the latest applicant for admission to grase-vvidowhood. Jennie alleges that her husband, Charles, is a bogus article, that he not only refuses to provide for her, but that he has treated her in a base, inhuman mannerShe asks the court for an absolute divorce, but has overlooked the little item of alimony.
Most all Paid.
Most all the claims against the county fair association have been paid off this week, and a neat surplus ot $000 or more will be left.
Darlington's Scandal.
ty
Commenting on the sensational lie sent out from the Argus News office, some time ago, in regard to thoCoffmanHamilton scandal, the Darlington Echo says: "The press all over the country has commented freely upon the Coff-man-IIamilton case, both iu the news and editorial columns, and the facts havo become grossiy exagerated. Rev. W. H. Uroomfield has received a large number of letters scoring him and his church for the alleged cold shoulder shown the repentant girl, and Miss Hamilton has received letters of Christian sympathy and condolence, and some that are exceedingly ridiculous. The facts in the matter are that when Broomtielci mada statement of Miss Hamilton's part in the scandal and she had declared that all the minister had said was true, he aBked all the members present who would forgive her to rise to their feet. Although only a small part of congregation present were members of the church, a large per centage of them arose from their seats and thus indicated their forgiveness of the wrong confessed. Mies Hamilton is rot now nor has she been since the church incident in any way mentally unbalanced, but isjseen on the streets of the town] and about her home acting in a perfectly sensible and lady like mannerShe is taking the very wisest course in the matter and if those outside of our community who have no earthly iuterest in the matter would only attend to their own business the affair would soon adjust itself and the matter be ended."
Loves to Steal.
was
Robert Grenlee, 14 years of age, run in by the police Saturday for stealing a horse belonging to Wm, Quillen. Young Greenlee's case is a sad one. He is somewhat demented and doesn't seem to realize that it is wrong Oi unlawful to steal. In fact he says he loves to steal just for the fun of the thing. His parents sent him to the reform school at Plainfield at one time but they would not keep him because he was not capable of receiving instructions. The authorities are in a quandry to know just how to dispose of him.
The Street Fair
Is a go, The arrangement of the affair is in the hands of genuine hustlers and the fair will be the biggest thing of the kind ever in Crawfordsville. The principal business streets will be given over to stock
peBS,
booths, fodder shocks and
side shows. There will be music in the air and midway dancers in profusion. Prominent among all these
attritions
will be the Hoboe cigar at ail the stands. The fair would not be a sue ces. without them.
Where is Joe?
Clerk Sparks is holding in trust about 8700 which belongs to Joseph Coyner, a former resident o? Sugar Creek township. About a year ago Joe pulled up stakes and lelt the country, leaving no address, and it is thought by many that he is wading knee deep in gold up in the Klondike country. The money is Joe's share from the sale of land in the Coyn-r estate.
Destroyed By Fire.
A residence on the farm of Amos Quick, some four miles north-west of the city, was destroyed by tire on Mon day morning about 4 o'clock. The house was occupied by a Mr. Maxwell a tenant, who with his family were asleep at the time, and -who escaped with only a few household articles before the building fell. There was no insurance.
Prepared for the Street Fair.% Tom Nolan, of the Sherman House, is now the happy possessor of a genuine side show with hoochie-coochie and snake charmer accoinpaniements. Tom captured it from an unfortunate lair follower who

For Whipping His Father-iiiLaw. Elbert Amuierman, of Alamo, was fined before 'Squire Stilwell last Friday for assaulting his father-in-law, Mr. Brown, at the Rouniree grove during tte old soldiers' reunion at that place a couple of weeks ago. The case against Brown for provoke was dismissed.
