The Agricultural Fxhibit

ONE

of the exhibits of the street fair which seemed to have but few attractions for the average sight seer at the street fair was the general exhibit at the Y. M. C. A. armory. There has never been such a display of agricultural, horticultural, kitchen and barn yard products made in the county as was on exhibition thefte this week. If any one doubted the agricultural resources of Montgomery county he only needed to visit that hall to have his mind disabused. The largest and finest corn and potatoes the eyes ever beheld could be seen there, and the beauty of it all was that it was raised on the fine lands of the Sugar Creek and Black Creek bottoms, and the rich prairie lands of the northern part of the county. Immense pumpkins, watermelons, carrots, beets, turnips, cucumbers, squashes, potatoes, yams, and artichokes, with apples, grapes, pears and all sorts of fruits told how well nature had responded to the tickling of soil this year. The poultry display was one of the finest ever shown in the county, and shows our chicken fanciers to be strictly up to date. The man or woman who failed to see this exhibit missed a good thing.

Encourage Them a Little.

TUESDAY

the Erhman Bros., of

Terre Haute, paid Crawfordsville a visit looking for a location for their shirt and overall factory. Their factory at Terre Haute employs 500 women and girls, and they are desirous of establishing a branch house which will employ a number of wofnen. It would be a good thing and our people could afford to give it substantial encouragement.

THE DETECTIVES.

Grand Annual Meeting of the National Horse Thief Detect

ives in Session Here

This Week.

MONDAY and Tuesday of this week were great days for the Horse Thief Detectives of Indiana, Illinois and Ohio. It was the occasion of the grand annual meeting of these terrors to thieves. The meeting was in charge of a committee of local detectives Messrs. Thomas Sutton, H. H. Talbott and M. B.Waugh, and to their credit be it said everything moved like clockwork, and the large crowd was taken cire of in excellent style. On Monday evening there was a parade with more than 300 men in line, and following the parade there was an entertainment and social good time at Music Hall. The band played, the detectives marched through the principal streets to the hall where addresses of welcome were made by Mayor Elmore and W. T. W hittington and the response by Hon. Jas. G. Johnson, of Mace. The entertainment which followed consisted of recitations and music, vocal and instrumental.

There were about 250 delegates present from various associations, and as this County has 500 members, there was a large number present. Governor Mount who is President of the National Association was absent in Texas, but Vice-President Anglin was on hand. The history of the organization is not ancient. It was effected a good many years ago as a protection against depredatory horse thieves, and through it many scoundrels have been brought to justice. It has been interested in the ferreting out of many crimes during its existence, and is one organization that always stands for law and order.

Resolutions were passed commendatory of the officers of the organization and lauding Crawfordsville and vicinity for the royal welcome given the delegates. The later sessions of the uody were secret. The following officers were elected. Grand organizes, James McManamy, of Fountain county President, S. S. Anglin. of Kosciusco county Vice-President, Thomas Sutton, of Montgomery county Secretary, Jas. W. McCorkle, of Montgomery Treasurer, James Carroll, Eaton, Ohio. The association adjourned after accepting the invitation of Greenfield, Ind., to meet there next year. The meeting taken as a whole was a grand success, and much important business was transacted. We were glad to have them •vith us and wish them great success during the coming year in the apprehension and conviction of criminals, over 200 of whom have been cared for in state institutions through their efforts the past year.

Venued to Boone.

IEFF STEWART'S suit in which Miss Marie Williams, formerly cashier in his store at Indianapolis, asks damages to the amount of several thousand dollars, has been sent to Boone county on a change of venue. The complaint of Miss Williams is a hot one, and for safety should be deposited in an asbestos lined box. She sets forth in the first paragraph that the defendant had accused her of stealing cash from the drawer of his grocery at Indianapolis while she was acting as his cashier, thus injuring her good name and business proapects, causing her sickness and expense on account of worry and distress over the charges, and in this paragraph she asks damages in the sum of $10,000.

In the second paragraph she alleges that she is of legal age, unmarried, and that previous to these charges of defendant she had borne a good name, and alleges that in July last Stewart had caused to be published in certain newspapers a statement to the effect that the plaintiff' (Miss Williams) was guilty of theft instead of Miss Coulter, who had been charged as being guilty. On this paragraph she asks damages in the sum of $10,000.

The third paragraph alleges that Stewart had said in the presence of several citizens that he had caught the defendant stealing money from the cash drawer. On account of this malicious and damaging statement on Stewart's part she asks $10,000.

The fourth paragraph charges that Stewart set about in a systematic manner to ruin her. That he treated her with so much more kindness than he did the rest of the clerks, and gave her so many privileges denied the others that it became a matter of comment and criticism. She avers that she is poor and the defendant had told her to take money from time to time from the drawer and it would be all right, and that he had frequently handed her money himself. She further alleges that he one day took her to the basement of the store and there made proposals to her which shocked her. She refused to have any relations with him whatever, but afterward went back to .the store. She says that she continued to take small sums from the drawer, believing that the previous arrangements held good. She says that she took $16 on June 10 and that she was watched and accused of theft. She alleges that Stewart took her into a room and searched her, which conduct shocked her. On this account she asks $10,000.

The case has some sensational features and promises to draw a lar^'e crowd in the Boone court.

Harriage Licenses.

THIS

has been a healthy week in the marriage market. The weeks record of sweetness or divorce stands as follows. It was the street fair:

Ward Young and Coly Britts. W. M. Lawter and Hattie McDonald.

Isham G. Everson and Mary L. Hinkle. Bert Cahoon and Eva Prickett.

Hershel Kelley and Lottie Birch. Samuel Johnson and Ruth Jackson. Paul Gerard and Elsie Linn. James Mullen and Sarah Smith. John J. Trotter and Mary J. Griffin. John W. Kepler and Maud Snyder. Roland S. Baker and Zerelda Lookabaugh.

School Consolidation.

SCOTT

towuship has become ar-

roused on the school house con solidation question and a petition is in circulation asking that the schools be consolidated into one with the exception of three substantial brick buildings now owned by the township. Only three men have refused to sign the petition. It is proposed to erect next year one seven room building with all the modern appliances and apparatus. This is certainly a move in the right direction and in the end will save money for the township.

The Street Fair.

COR one solid week the city of Crawiordsville has been a bedlam of noise. The bands have paraded the streets from early dawn until late at night. The people have surged in unbroken lines up and down seeking amusement in all its varied forms. The man who failed to find! something to laugh at or kick about was surely a queer creature. The exhibits in the live stock department were first class in every respect While it did not attract the attention it should have done, it was here alt right, and the agricultural and poultry department at the Y. M. C. Awas the best ever seen in the county. The merchants were lavish iu thetr display zl

their wares, and used ev

ery means in their power to to let the people know what they had for sale. It is too early yet to give much information as to profits to various lines'of business, but we have widely advertised our town, and sent out afar better advertisement than that of last year. There has been no particular complaint as to the general class of entertainments offered the public. No compulsion was used to make a man look at something which he felt was naughty. If he went where he had no business to go he had no one to blame but himself. The opinion of individuals differ on things which are harmful to morals, and always will, but this we can say, the extremely loud features of last year were elimintated and each year will find more and more improvement along this line until every objectionable feature is wiped out. It takes time to educate a community in any line, and the street fair will evolve itself finally out of all its ruts. There may be things which need to be remedied, no doubt there is, but let it be done quietly and next year we will know more. From the large crowds in attendance and the fun they were having, and the freedom with which they were spending money would indicate that financially the fair was a success.
