LITTLE LOCALS.

ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS OF PEO­

PLE—SHORT AND CRISP.

What The Public'is Doing, at Home and Other Places Near by.

Last week's electrical storms burned out a great mauy telephones about the city.

A number of Crawfordsville people took in the Danville and Indianapolis Big Four excursions Sunday. V. Mrs. Mary Vaughan, mother of

H. Vaughan, of this city, died at her home at Lafayette Friday aged 68 years.

The Ladies Aid Society will give an ice cream social at Roberts' Chapel on next Saturday night, Aug. 19. Everybody is cordially invited.

TheEndeavor society of the First Presbyterian church celebrated its tenth anniversary on last Monday •evening in a becoming manner.

J. B. Leffew has been assigned to the 35th U. S. volunteers now located on the Pacific coast and left for his post Monday. He enlisted as a cook.

The bond of Lock wood, the Boone couuty shootist, has been reduced "from S10,0C3 to S2,5C0 on the supposition that his perforated victim will get well.

In addition to the thumping received by Mr. Lloyd at the hands of the McKinsey crowd, they had him arrested and fined for provoking them to commit the deed.

They have been fining the osteopaths at Lafayette for practicing without a license. Dr. C. A. Ross was the victim to the tune of £10. He will carry the matter to the higher courts.

The Darlington authoiities have been going after the saloon keepers in an amazing manner. The entire push was fined last week for selling liquid suicide to minors, and some of them for indulging injjrofanity.

St. Louis' importance as a growing gateway to the east and south is emphasized by the action of the Burlington railroad, which, on June 1, established a new fast train in each direction between that city and Denver. Nearly 2,030 miles of additional train service daily is necessitated, but Bur|lington officials claim that travel between the mountains and the big city at the confluence of the Missouri and the Mississippi is large enough to warrant them in going to considera ble expense in order to obtain their share of it.

Unfortunate Zebolon.

ZEB

FARLEY, the young fellow who carries water for the workmen on the Crawford building, was purauing diligently his business Saturday evening when he made a misstep and went through between the joice and struck the mud in the bottom of the cellar with a "dull thud." Zeb yelled like a Blackfoot Indian at the stake and those who were near expected that he at least had his vertabrae unjointed, but a close examination revealed no dam •age other than a big scare. It might have been worse.

Women Wrecks. Every once in awhile the newspapers tell of some once beautiful woman who has been consigned to an asylum, because physical weakness drove her to seek temporary strength in the alcholic mixtures that are found on many women's toilet tables.

The story is an old, but evernew one. A woman finds herself suffering from weakness, nervousness, de-

v,. spondency and irritability. She cannot divine the cause, 7 and her family physician seems equally at .J0?.8,,-A- friend who suffers in the same way 3je'*9 her that a wee drop of cologne, brandy «rops,

a^e

beer, "malt-extracts" or other

stimulant will {jive temporary relief. And that is the beginning that ends in a madhouse. The woman who suffers from the symptoms described may safely infer that •rere exists disease or at least weakness of the delicate organs that constitute her a woman. Dr. Pierce's si Favorite Prescription, "ft which contains no -alcohol or other stimu- •, lant to inebriate, will promptly put things '•$ "tight, and make her strong and healthy in a womanly way. It does away with neces8ity for obnoxious ex-

SJpHnations and local treatment It cures tte privacy of the home. It gives vigor ana virility to the organs upon which de~pends the perpetuation of the human race.

The Very Air in Holland Particularly in The Hague :/. Breathes Contentment

A VERY PRETTY' CITY.

Broad Finely-Shaded Avenues Which

Flank Quiet Moving Canals Leading Past Substantial Houses.

City of 150,000 Inhabitants Said to be Half Dutch and Half French—Probably Uecause It Is the Point Centre uf

Holland and French Is the Language of Diplomacy.

Of all spots in Europe in which the Czar's peace congress could be held. The Hague is the mogt in consonance with the purposes of the conference. The very air anywhere in Holland, and particularly in The Hague, breathes the spirit of contentment and good will. Nothing hurries there. The Netherlands look peaceful, but it is a peace that is well won—a peace that was wrested from man and nature.

There isn't a prettier city than The Hague for its size in all Europe, nor one more beautifully laid out. It has broad, finely shaded avenues, which flank quiet-moving canals its houses, tiom

palaces to the homes of the well-to-do, while not imposing, have the Dutch air of substance and stability. A city now, with some 150,000 inhabitants, it was a village when some of the most famous treaties of history were signed there in bygone years. If it is remarkable as a city, it was still more remarkable oe a village in the old days. Some ore has said that The Hague is half Dutch and half French, a saying that arose, probably, from the fact that it is the court centre of Holland, and that French ways and manners prevail to a great extent in diplomacy.

The congress called at the suggestion of the Czar to consider the question of international disarmament, met in the Huisten Bosch, or House of the Woods. This palace, which is 250 years old, is a mile out of town, at the side of the road to Haarlaem. It is in the middle of the Bosoh, or forest park, which begins at tho fashionable end of the town and extends for three or four miles. The park is full of lofty oaks, which have been allowed to grow to their natural size and in their natural way, contrary to the usual Dutch custom, which is to trim trees to symmetrical shape. The I-iouse of the Woods is one of the private palaces of the Queen. It contains a great hall, called the Oranje Zaal, or Orange Hall.

One of the show peaces of The Hague is the Royal Museum, in the Maurits Huis, which is named from Prince Maurice of Nassau, who built it nearly three centuries ago. It contains a rare lot of Chinese and Japanese curiosities, which is rather an odd circumstance for a roya] museum in Europe. It also shelters an invaluable collection of paintings from all the Dutch masters.

ENTRANCE TO CASTLE THE HAGDE. Among the fine public squares In the town is that called the Vijverberg, or fish-pond hill, which borders on the fishpond. It is in the centre of the town, and on the edge of the pond is the old chateau of the Counts of Holland. It was the first of these counts who gave the name to the town. The locality was then his hunting preserve, and he surrounded St by a hedge, hence the name Hague. This chateau, founded in the fourteenth century, has been improved and extended in modern days so that now it includes two courts, an outer door and an inner. The inner court probably is the oldest building in The Hague. It contains the Gothic hall, a room of magnificent extent, being 130 feet long, 62 feet wide and is 69 feet high. This building also contains the library of the records of the town and nation.

It w»a opposite the door of this courf that the aged patriot Barnevelte was beheaded in 1618. The people gathered sand wet with his blood and preserved it as a sacred relic. The house in which Barnevelte lived is now a part of the hotel of the Minister of Finance, in the L/ange Voorhout. In this court, too, the chambers of the States General, or the Dutch Parliament, sit.

What is called the Royal Palace was built three centuries ago, and has been rebuilt and extended several times since. The palace of the Prince of Orange is nearly two centuries old.

Out at Ryswick is the castle of Ryswick, where, in 1797, the treaty was signed which ended what the American colonists called King William's war.

Nearly all these palaces will be aglow with entertainments, given in honor of the delegates. Among the recreations of the visitors will be the beautiful drive to Scheveningen, at the seashore. It was off this watering place that the Dutch Admiral Van Tromp was defeated by the J5iiBhsh.

This will be the second international gathering in Holland within a year, the other having been at the coronation of Queen Wilhelmlna laat August.

The strength of two horses equals that of fifteen men. There are 269 color varieties of the Chrysanthemum to be seen in Japan.

things seem sometimes flourish like green bay trees, but it is delusive always. The Bannister dive on the Lafayette pike which is the rival of the Annable concern in the same locality, has long succeeded in keeping out of the meshes of the law. But at last it has been pounced upon, and Steve Allen, Jack Bannister, and three female habitues of the place, on complaint of Samuel Blanton, were called to give an account of certain actions which are not allowed by the strict rules of etiquette. It is high time joints were wiped off the map, and the proprietors put to cracking stone or some other honorable employment.

A NEW FIRM.

The Rink barn, the largest and most complete establishment of the kind in the city of Crawfordsville, has been leased by Taylor Thompson and Mort Beckner, who will take possession September 1st and operate

large boarding, custom, feed and sale stable. They will confine themselves soreB and feeding horseS left in their care. Both these builds up the strength. Only

We cordially invite everybody to come and see our new barn on north Green street, opposite Ramsey Hotel. Remember everything under cover.

Sick-poison is a poison which makes you sick. It comes from the stomach. The stomach makes it out of undigested food.

The blood gets it and taints the whole body with it. That's the way of it. [The way to be rid of it is to look after your digestion.

If your food is properly digested, there will be none left in the stomack. to make sick-poison out of. If your stomach is too weak to see to this properly by itself, help it along with a few doses of Shaker Digestive Cordial.

That's the cure for it. Shaker Digestive Cordial is a delicious, healthful, tonic cordial, made of pure medicinal plants, herbs and wine.

It positively cures indigestion and prevents the formation of sick- poison. At druggists. Trial bottles 10c.
