A Benefit Entertainment.

It will be remembered that John W. Clemson lost all the paraphernalia of his Union Scout in a fire at St. Ignace Mich. He desires to get on his feet again and for this purpose McPherson Post has given its sanction to use its name endorsing an entertainment which he proposes to give to raise money to procure a new outfit. Mr. Clemson de sires the co-operation not only of Mc Pherson Post, but of the Sons of Yet erans, the P. O. S. of A. and Co. I. it is a worthy object and Mr. Clemson should receive hearty encouragement :n his efforts to restore his great loss.

The Guess Party.

The novelty of the "Guess Party" makes it unusually enjoyable. The invitations secretly circulated yesterday morning announcing a "Guess Party" for the evening caused many young society people to wander aimlessly*about the city. The place was finally located at the home of Miss Jennie Collins, who confessed to being the guilty issuer of the invitations aDd about fifty quickly assembled. The evening was pleasantly spent and made enjoyable through the efforts of the amiable little hostess. Refreshments of ice cream and cake were served.—Brazil Times.

funeral of Mrs. Smith.

The funeral of the late Mrs. O. A. Smith occurred Monday from tho residence of Joseph Binford on east Market street, being conducted by Dr. R. J. Cunningham and Rev. G. L. Mcintosh, ol Indianapolis. A large concourse of friends were present and attended tho the remains to their last resting place. Among those present from out of the city wore: Robert Smith, of Evansville Rev. G. L. Mcintosh,of Indianapolis R. P. Shanklin and wife, R. M. Sims and wife, G. W. Negley and wife, Ne'vSalosbury and wife, Jonathan Cook, II. F. Campbell, Mrs. Carrie Sidwell, Miss Ella Palmer, Miss Lemna.Bryant,Mrs. Abram Givens, D. W. Paul, Mrs. J. H. Coulter, Mrs. Cleaveland and Mrs. Hockman, of Frankfort.

Mr. Scott's Happy New Year. Last Christmas day A. H. Scott, of Indianapolis, while walking near the residence of his brother-in-law, W. M. Reeves, on south Green street, dropped •S20 in five dollar bills. Although ho advertised the loss he heard nothing from his money and gave it up for lost. Friday morning, however,as Mrs. Downs was passing along tho street she found one of the bills lying in a crevice in tho sidewalk. This put Mr. Scott on a hot trail and going into the yard of M. Y. Buck, upon whose sidewalk the first bill was found, he found two other bills in a short time. They were wet, of course, but Mr. Scott didn't leave them lying on the ground because of that. Friday evening he has "fifteen dollars in his inside pocket."

Omer Puts Up for the Orowd. f/1 Omer Young's gambling house, aver Miles' north Illinois street restaurant, was raided last night by Captain Quigley and a posse of police. The proprie tor and six players,who registered under fictitious names, were secured, together with a lot of paraphernalia. The proprietor put up $450 for the appearance of the party in court to-day.—Indian-apolis Journal.

Omer Young is a Montgomery county boy, having been raised near Shannondale and attending college here for several years. He was a good natured boy and after leaving college went to Thorntown and Anderson aud engaged in business. His young wife died suddenly and Omer has been a little off color ever since. He quit business and went to Indianapolis. It has been known for some time that he has been running a tiger den over there and no one is greatly surprised to hear of his place being pulled. Nevertheless the news will grieve many of his friends here. r,

THE UNWASHED,

The Riuie Uuterrifieit Democracy are Decorated With \Var Pauit, Jedge Jooiiios Seller wasthoro.

Last Saturday when tho court house bell rang for tho Democratic county mass convention tho cii\ uit court room was crowded with benches and loafers from tho Auditor's ollico. Ben Swank I is not present so ,T. G. Johnson, of Mace, was made chairman, and as Will Henkle could write he was givon the position of secretary by acclamation. Judgo Soiier was tho moving spirit and made all the motions except the ono to I the effect that tho delegates bo instruct- I od to vote for him as a member of tho I State Central Committee. When this was made ho mcdostly shut his eyes and looked for all the world as if ho wero at the bottom of the whole thing. When it was passed he swallowed something in his throat, probable his heart, and opened his soft blue eyes in glad surprise. Then in his sweet, girlish voice he thanked the committee for the honor and moved that the convention adjourn while all were fooling good, especially himself. The delegates to the district convention which meets at Torre Haute next Friday, tho procinct committeemen and members of the central committee wore elected as follows:

Union:—Delegates to District convention, R. B. Snyder, J. M. Sellar, W. E. Henkle, A. Wert, Wm. Hunt, W. II. Johnson central committee, John A. Booo precinct committeemen, no volunteers.

Peculiar Mrs. Lindemood.

Mrs. Clarence Lindemood, while doubtless a very charming and bewitch ing little lady, is certainly possessed of a most peculiar tomperment. There is probably not another lady in Crawlordsville, who, on a cold night like last night, would deliberately get uj) out of bed to go out and sleep in the barn. Now, Clarence himself, while possessed of a fow eccentricities always to bo found in men of groat genius and intellect, is withal a remarkably fascinating beau of the old school. Then why .should Mrs. Lindemood rise at eleven o'clock at night and after calling him all the rude names imaginable trot off down to tho cold, cold barn to spend the night'.-' It is a mystery. It is unexplicable. Jiut she did it. Clarence put on his satin smoking jacket and velvet slippers and going down to tho stable where his peculiar wife was shivering on the floor among the lowing kine tried to persuade her to go back to tho greatful warmth of a natural gas tiro. Slio flatly refusod and bade him betake himself hence. Ho betook himself therefore to the homes of tho several policemen and lifting up his voice ho declared that ho was afraid his peculiar wife would freeze to death if sho was not made to go in out of the cold. Much more he said after the same fashion but tho only response ho received from under tho bedclothes was "Let'er freeze." When tho police refused to get up and argue with her ho roused the neighborhood but one and all failed signally to reason Mrs. Lindemood out of her unreasonable notion of sleeping ing in the barn. It cirused a groat deal of excitement in the Lindemood neighborhood and everybody went in to take a look at her. Clarence should have made a stake by charging ten cents at the door.

An Heir in the Pen.

Poor old John A. Long who is serving a term in the northern penitentiary for stealing a plow from Thomas West has had a windfall. His aged father died the other day and his will was admitted to probate this morning. John A. Long was among the heirs named and he receives $1,000 cash among other bequests. The money will be kept in trust for him until he is released. The prisoner is over fifty years old and the two stalwart sons who were indicted with him were never tried. They never will be as the punishment meted out to .the old man was considered sufficient sfor the crime committed.

I was told by tho managor of the tobacco warehouse that the averago price paid was about 11 cents per pound. Farmers aro now delivering their crop. The quality grown hero iB fine. Last year this county took first premium in a tobacco exhibit of three States, Kentucky being one of the States contesting. The tobacco house is a very large building, perhaps 100x00 feot and 40 feet high. This building is being rapidly filled with tobacco hanging on tobacco sticks. These aro hung one above another.

Everett Linn and wife soon tired of the climate of Alabama. The bull frogs' croaked too loud at night and the pesky varmints ato up all tho spring chickens as faBt as the old lion could hatch them, and one fine night a large frcg ate the old hen herself. That settled it and thoy resolved to return to Mace and let the real estato business slide. Alabama is no great shakes, anyhow. Accordingly thoy camo home on New Yoar's "to anew their journey pursue and roll round with the year." Everett looks quite manly sinco he eloped and is carefully cultivating a base ball mustache,'/ Ho says elopements aro groat fun but tho next time he won't go by the way of Nashvil o.

A iii^h Tribute.

Tho L'resbytoriun church at Frankfort where Rev. (3. A. Smith and wife were stationed until recently, unarrmously passed tho following tribute to hor memory Sunday at a congregational meeting: "It is with deepest sorrow and profound sadness that wo have learned of tlio death of Mrs. Smith, the wife of our lato pastor, Rov. Otis A. Smith. Mrs. Smith, by hor gentle, unassuming manners, hor loving deeds, her conscientious discharge of duty, her kindly greeting had endeared herself to us all. She was a woman of deep religious convictions and ardent in hor attachment to her church. Her religious professions she made good by her conduct. She lived unspotted and faithful her courtesy and kindness were unfailing she was beloved by all. When such a person dies it becomes us to mourn and we deplore her death because of her great worth as a Christian woman, her loss to the churchy to her husband and to Bociety, and we, as a church, tenderly and affectionately extend to our late pastor, our sincere sympathy and condolence in his bereavement.

No Wonder She Want! A Diyoroe. Friday afternoon the Clerk issued a marriage license to J. H. Stephens and Mrs. Mary McKinsey. Mrs. MoKinsey succeeded in securing a divorce from Joe McKinsey about a week ago. The divorce came as a Christmas gift to fill a long felt want and we sincerely trust that the new husband may also prove a gift to fill along felt want.
