A SAD DEATH.
Eugene Kostanzer's Sudden Demise Last Saturday Shocks the Community. The whole city wasj startled Saturday when it was announced that Eugene Kostanzer had died at his home on south Washington street about 10 o'clock. It was not known that he was seriously ill and not until yesterday afternoon did his family feel any serious alarm. The direct cause of his death, so far as could be ascertained, was peritonitis. It seems that Mr. Kostanzer was working on some racks at the store on Monday, and severely strained himsely, causing the fatal disease to set in. From almost the first he stated that he believed he would never got up, but such a thinj seemed impossible to the family.
Eugene Kostanzer was born July, 18G0, and was accordingly lil years of age. Ho was raised in this city and has always been noted by liis sober, industrious habits, his strict integrity and thorough business principles, lie was one of the city's most enterprising young merchants and a general favorite in social circles. The family is utterly prostrated by grief, and has the sympathy of the entire community in this awful bereavement.
Calamity Howlers at Darlington. About twenty live of the very faithful of the Democratic party met Dec. 11, in Hulett's hall at Darlington under a call of the Farmers' Alliance and were addressed by the State Organizer, Earband, and a Dr. Taylor, of the city of Anderson, whose explanation of how he came to be a member was that he had been a Democrat and owned a little farm in Vigo county, Indiana, with a great big mortgage on it, and as his speech indicated put there by the Republican party while the doctor was busy visiting his patients. He told how the poor farmer was being trodden under foot by the moneyed sharks of this country, but did not even suggest a single remedy for them. He stated that the mortgaged indebtedness of the farmers of Indiana was $125,000,000. But he failed to tell what amount they had paid certain agents to work up these mortgages and the amount of worry and travel the said farmers had "gone through to put them there. But still no remedy for the farmer. Hut if the farmer will send me to congress will see that t' e. (1. mortgage on that Vigo farm is lifted a right, was clearly to be siHjn in his entire speech, llis only aim that could be figured out was to discourage or ceale discontent :mong the farmers in the hope of duping a few Republican^ to voting the Democratic ticket.
After hearing his harrangue we left the hall feeling a deep interest in tho down trodden farmer, but on reaching our home the first thing caught our eve was a prod ction headed "Flowers" "in thr- Eiho, from the pen of Mis? Rue Miller, a farmer's daughter, living on the farm, as read by her at the Ben Hur Reading Circle, another farmer organization. Imagine the feelings of the hearers in the two different organizations, the Alliance with their long faces, and the Ben Hur club all smiles of peace and plenty, and immediately decided this, our home is just what we make it. So let the wide world jog as it will, I'll be gay and happv still.

The great New Ross slander case came to an end Dec. 11 by the jury returning a verdict for the defendant, Isaac Golliday. It appeared to the jury that McGullin had brought action witlisulficient cause and they lost no time in finding against him. The verdict was no surprise as but few connected with he case could see where anything material enough upon which to claim damages had been said by Golliday.
A Worthy Benevolence. v,

Jan'e E. Weedon, solicitor for the State Industrical School for girls, is in the city for the purpose of soliciting funds to build the house. Addison Hadley, gave a farm of more than 100 acres for this most patriotic and charitable of purposes—the instruction of the poor and homeless girls of Indiana, not only in books but to make them proficient in some work whereby to make their living. The enterprise is undenominational and non-political and appeals to the good will of all.

Will Wait Till Spring.
One of tho high school pupils gives to THE JOUKNAI the following little incident which occurred recently in one of the primnry rooms at the central school. The teacher of the room in question was greatly disturbed by the personal appearance of one of her female pupils, a girl of tender years, but remarkably dirty make up. Finally, when coal dust, grease and fried eggs had formed such a sediment upon the stolid countenance the young lady that she was only recognizable by the Beat she occupied, the teacher called her up and gently requested that she appear next morning with a clean face. Next morning came, and with it tho slovenly child. She looked proud, too, and had evidently wot tho tips of lior lingers and then drawn them down her face about once, leaving streaks of dirt and streaks of clean, tho effect produced giving tho child the appearance of glaring through a grating. The horrified teacher sent the child home at once with instructions to her mother to wash her clean. In the course of an hour the girl reappeared still streaked and declared defiantly, "my mother says sho won't neither wash mo. She ain't going to have mo catch my death of cold, but says I can wait till spring. She says you ain't got no judgment of health, nohow. I'm agoing to wait till spring."

About thirty-five guests were present,including the young society people of Darlington and a number from Crawfordsville.

Two Fires.
The iiie alarm sounded twice Sunday furnishing unusual and exhilarating diversion for the standing army of loafers on the streetB. The first alarm turned in shortly after noon called the department out to near the corner of College and Plum to the old Proctor property now owned by George Hanna and occupied by Charley Vancleave. The fire originated in a defective Hue, but was promptly extinguished by the department at a loss of less than $75.
Before 2 o'clock the department was called out again to the rear ofthe99cent store where a number of goods boxes were on fire and threatening to communicate the ilames to the Btore rooms. This fire was caused by some good and worthy citizen throwing his cigar stub in a box of dry trash. The fire was quickly subdued.

A Gospel Truth.
Thorntown Argus:—Lebanon capitalists, who persisted when building their pipe line, that they should not run to Crawfordsville and Thorntown because it would hurt Lebanon, are all stirred up over the rumor that a gate in tho Crawfordsville line at Pikes' Crossing from whence the company will some day provide Lebanon, and denounce it as a fake. They need not be alarmed and the old money bags at Lebanon will learn ,ere long that it is gospel truth.
Trusts and the Tariff.
Professor Campbell read a well written and interesting paper Dec. 11, before the Ouiatenon Club, his subject being "Trusts and the Tariff." The ProfesBor took strong grounds in opposition to trusts of ever form whether they be the combinations of capital, labor or farmers. Anything that controlled prices besides that of supply and demand was unnatural and should be regulated by law.

A Silver Weddintr.
Twenty-five years ago I ec. there occurred a union of hearts. In commemoration of that event Mr. and Mrs. George W. Bowers, of Alamo, gave a dinner, celebrating their silver wedding. They had invitod in numerous friends and relatives, but on account of the gloomy, inclement weather, only about forty-five wore present. They seated themselves to a sumptuous re past and all expressed thomsolvos as delighted with the dinner. Immediately after the dinner came tho surprise to the quarter of a century married couple. They received several elogant presentB among them a lovely silver basket or cake stand from Mr. and Mrs. William L. Duncan, Greencastlo, Ind. a beautiful silvor soup spoon, from the Hon. M. E. Clodfelter and wife, and an elegant silver toa sot, from their four sons, besides many other lovely presents. Thoy received several silver dollars, some of them coined in 18G6 as a delicate token of the time of marriage. M. E. Clodfelter maae tho presentation speech, very feelingly referring to the long period of happy wedded life of Mr. and Mrs. Bowers and wishing them as happy a life in time to come as had been spent in the past. All returned homo feeling that they had spent an enjoyable day, being well pleased with tho excellent dinner and wishing tho pair another 25 years of happy life when they all hoped to join in another celebration— that or the golden wedding.

Love Laushs at Looks.
At least, love does so at Mace. It has been kept pretty quiet, but several days ago Everett Linn, aged 19, skipped for Illinois with pretty little Dora Morris The children loved each other passionately, but "cruel" parents forbade the bans on account of tender years. They swore they would get married anyhow, so Everett took his father's team one night and driving over to the home of Harvey Morris, the father of Dora, he went under Dora's window and softly whistled "Little Annie Rooney." Dora came sliding out in less than no time and llie twain loft presumably for Danville, Ills., to get married. The families are much disturbed, but Everett's father, Asbury Linn, says that the yo'ing folks will be welcomed back. All parties are eminently respectable, and the only regret is that the children have acted so indiscreetly. Their respective parents should look them up and spank them both soundly.

First Sow, Then Reap.
Too little advertising is liko sowing too little seed. A farmer in planting corn puts a number of grains into each hill, and is satisfied if one good healthy stalk comes from such planting. It's the constant advertiser that is bound to attract attention. It's the succession of bright, catchy advertisements that refuse to be ignored. That the proper time must be allowed for the fruit to grow, ripen and be gathered is as true as that wheat cannot bef prepared the day after it is sow j§

''Dad" Henderson's Experience. "Dad" Henderson, the voteran engineer and hero of the late Monon wreck, is able to be out and was down at the Monon station Dec. 11. In speaking of the late wreck he said in answers to questions as to what ho thought in tho moment of his poril. "I didn't have time to think. I have hoard people sav that in moments of great danger, their whole lives and trivial incidents long since forgotten, pass in rapid but in perfect viow and sequence before their minds. It was not that way with me, nor has it been in times past. I fully realized my danger and on half a dozen other occasions in my career I have been in peri 1 just as great, and was always fully alive to it, but never yet have I had tho pleasuro of seeing my past spread out before me liko an open book as the saying is. In the first place a record of my life would fill a pretty big book, but oven if it, was an uneventful one, should not have had time* to have reviewed it in the season or mv danger. I merely know that grasped the levor, threw my lame foot forward, and felt my ongino rise in air at the moment of the crash. remember nothing more, but presume I was thrown through the cab window. I didn't have time to get off but 1 reckon 1 did got olT mighty easy.
No, sir if time had been given for reviewing my past life, I should have spent it in jumping off tho engine at tho curve." Mr. Henderson returns to Lafayetto to-morrow.
Ate Him Liko Hot Wiennie. Robert Ayors is Crawfordsville's professor of hot wionnorwurst, and at night is a familiar figure as ho trudges up and down the stroets with his white apron and sausage outfit. Nobody ever thought that Robert was particularly chivalrous, but ho iB nevertheless. He rooms over Poole's grocery where two or three ladies room likewise. Just what the ladies ovor did to have rude men to come poking around their door nt night we are unable to say, but for all that men to come and have the gall to ask admittance, too. SometimeB they are refused as was tho case Sunday. Thoir visitors insisted on coming in anyhow, but Robert Ayers hearing the noise, armed himself with a hot wionnorwurst and charged to tho rescue. He was not in it, for tho rude men visitors beat hiiu almost to a jelly and left him half dead. Robert would liko to have them arrested but unfortunately doesn't know their names. He is resting eaBily now, as the grateful ladies havo bandaged up his cracked hoad in vinegar and brown paper.
