Still No Gas.

Nearly all the churches or the city were forced to abandon the evening srvices last Sunday owing to the scarcity of natural gas. The gas subject is the all absorbing topic of conversation. You hear it wherever you go, and you don't hear much of anything else. The supply, instead of growing stronger, grows weaker day by day, until it has become a most serious question to manyCoal dealers are unable to supply the demands for cnl and coke while farm ers who have wood arn getting war prices for the same. Several loads of wood were brought to the city and delivered iast Sunday, a pectacle that has not been seen on our streets in many years. To prevent their families from freezing and avoid the sickness which must naturally follow this exposure' many consumers have discarded their mixers and those who have not have bad them bored in the hope of getting more gas. It is a serious matter now, and unlePB the gas company makes good its promise to funush more gas this month we prophesy that three-fourths of the citizens will discontinue its

U6e

altogether by January 1st, and go back to those fuels which have never failed us.

An Osteopath in Trouble. Dr. H. J. Jones, the Indianapolis osteopath who has been making regular visits to this city for many months, is having some trouble with ihe State board of medical examination and registration. This week the board caused the doctor's arrest on an affidavit charging hiui with practicing without a license, and the case will be heard in the court Dext week. Commenting on the arrest the Indianapolis Journal Bays: "Dr. Jones' case will be an interesting one from the fact that according to assertions made from time to time he is prepared to defend himself against the board. He is a practitioner of osteopathy and is not believed by the board to be competent to pass the required medical examination even if he should desire to do so. The State board has been considering his case for some time and the members say they did not tile an affidavit against bim at the last regular meeting of the board because it waB desired to havo all the evidence in the case ready before causing his arrest.

Death of J. W. Kirkpatrick. James Wesley Kirkpatrick died "a hie home iu Kirkpatrick last Thursday night after a short illness. The funeral will occur from the late family home tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock.

SPAIN ACCEPTS.

Peace Terms Agreed Upon and a Treaty Will Soon be Signed

The war is over. After so many weeks the peace commissioners have reached an agreement at Paris. The following Associated PreBS despatch frotn that city ssys: Spain has accepted the United States offer of 820,000,000 and at a joint session of the peace commissioners this afternoon concented, without condition, to relinquish Cuba and to cede Porto Rico Guam, and the Phillippine islands.

The document presenting this acceptance contained only 300 words. It opened with a reference to the final terms of the United States and said that theSpanisti commissioners, after having taken cugnizance of the terms proposed by the Americans,replied that theirgoveroment had tried to give us as equitable an answer as possible, but that they were not prepared to commit their government to the acceptance of the principles embodied in the American argument. Spain rejects these principles,and the note continues, "as she always has rejected them."

Basing her attitude upon the justice of her cause,the note then says that she still adheres to these principles "which she has heretofore invariably formulated."

The Farmers' Institute. The Farmers Institute to be held in the large Court room in Crawfordsville on Wednesday and Thursdp.y, December the 14th and 15th will have one of the best programmes ever offered to the people of the county.

Latta of Purdue University, state workers and home speakers, such as Governor and Mrs. J. A. Mount and a score or more of local workers, is enough to insure success. Topics pertaining to all farm industries will be discussed, which will be of interest to every one. No progressive farmer can afford to miss any of these meetings. For programme call or write to M. B. Waugh secretary at Crawfordsville. All meetings free.

Wants her Baby.

Mrs. Mattie Cox has instituted habeas corpus proceedings against her husband, John J. Cox, and his parents, Lewis and Delilah vox, to recover possession of her fifteen months old child. It appears that some time ago Mrs. Cox was taken sick with, fever and during her illness the child was taken to the home of the father's parents. Upon her recovery an estrangement arose between the husband and wife and when the mother went to the home of the Cox's to get her child they refused to give it up, and she now invokes the law to assist her in the recovery of her child.

Great Corn Shucking Feat. Near Birney, Ind„ a few days ago a young farmer accomplished the feat of shucking 134 bushels of standing corn in 9 hours and 10 minutes. If any of our farmer acquaintances kuow of any one beating this in the corn shucking line or equalling it we would be pleased to publish the fact. It, is likely that thin however, has Dever been equalled heretofore in corn shucking annals.— REVIEW.

NEW MARKET, Ind., Nov. 30 1898. EJitorREVIEW:—Dear Sir: In reply to inclosed clipping from your last week's issue would say. We have two men here who can lead that record. Mr. Prank Brackett and Willie Gott have been cribbing 90 bus., of corn apeice for me and bauling it three miles. It takes them 6 hours by the watch to husk and throw it in the wagon, being 15 bus., per hour or 137^ bUB. in 9 hours and 10 minutes, leading your Birney man 2% bus. Give them good standing corn and they will husk and throw in the wagon 150 bushels in 10 hours each. So still keep Montgomery Co., at the head yet awhile.

After levying on President Crawford's private car and selling it at sheriff's sale, and having gone down the line levying on rolling stock, from engines to box cars, and almost every thing in sight, the workmen on the Chicago and Southeastern (Indiana Midland) Saturday started in on the general offices at Anderson by levying on the safe for unpaid wages.
