Literary Waynetown.

Waynetown is resolved to be nothing if not high toned and literary. J. W. Small, who has been associated with Robert Osborn in the publication of the Hornet, has withdrawn because the Hornet ran too much to Democracy to suit his taste he united his fortunes with those of H. I. Starrs, late of the Wingate Graphic. The Graphic's outfit has been brought to Waynetown and triumphantly set up amid the cheers of the multitude led by Morris Herzog whose smile of pleasure over the debut of the new paper would fill a bobtail flush. The new paper, it is said, will be neutral in everything except Osborn

It will go for the bacon of that good man with the ferocity of the hired man after fried chicken and doughnuts. Hurrah for the Waynetown newspaper war! Long may it wave!

CRABBS.

This Estimable and Beloved Woman Passes Away after a Loug Illness. Mrs. B. F. Crabbs died Friday a. m. at 10 o'clock at her home on south Water street. She was a victim of the grip, having never recovered from its effects. For the past few months her condition has been very serious. A short time ago she went, to Colorado in hopes of being benefitted but the altitude proved too great and she hastened home. The trip east proved too much for her and she had to stop off at Lincoln in order to rest. Since her return she has been out of the houpe but a few times. Last night about 11 o'clock she sunk iuto a comatose condition and was not conscious again. Death was caused by a complication of diseases which battled Bkill of the best physicians.

Mrs. Crabb's maiden name was Sarah E. Stonecipher, and her parents were David and Selinn Stoneciper. She wag born in Crawfordsville, May 10, 183G. The only surviving members of the family are her mother, who resides at 203 north Washington street. William H. Stonecipher, a brother living two miles north of the city, and Samuel H. an invalid brother at Minneapolis. On Sept. 19, 1857, she married George H. Deighton, who died Deo. 11, 1873. Her son George Deighton, died Aug. 5, 1880. She was married to B. F. Crabbs, Sept. 22, 1881, and since then has been to him a faithful and devoted wife, and to his children Tully and Etta, a kind and Christian mother. Mrs. Hattie Breaks was also the same as a daughter to her, having been raised in the fai lilv although never legally adopted. It is hardly necessary to speak of Mrs. Crabbs' many virtues here in Crawfordsville where she lived and died. Her life has been an open book to us all and each one who has come iu contact with her can tell something good of her. Since she was fifteen years of age she has been an active and ardent member of the Methodist church and for the last few years has been especially prominent in the Ladies' Aid Society, being treasurer of that organization when it raised S3.500 for the church building fund. It can be truthfully said that Mrs. Crabbs will be missed, sadly missed in many places.

Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock occurred the funeral of the late Mrs. B. F. Crabbs and it was very largely attended. Rev. G. W. Switzer conducted the services and was assisted by Dr. J. W. Greene and Rev. H. L. Kindig, of Cov ington. A choir composed of Misses Aluia VTcCluer and Anna Wilson and Messrs. W. M. White and A. A. McCain sung three hymns. At the close of the exercises a great many followed the hearse to the cemetery where the last sad rites were performed. The pall bearers were Dr. Taylor, Dr. Jones, Robert Larsh, Wm. Lee, Zack Mahorney, John Hornbeck, James Evans and M. W. Bruner. The flower bearers were Misses Joan Elston, Maude Cohoon, Ada Lee and Jessie Fry.

Gutting Affray at Alamo.

There was a bloody row at. Alamo last Saturday evening. Alston's ten cent circus, the greatest on earth, of course, was at Alamo, and her two-headed boy and fat woman were out in front of the tent yelling out the merits of the show with all three of their voices when old Jim Allen became angry with young Victor Gilkey, a corn field buck who weighs as much as a center rush on a college foot ball team. Allen finally seized a club and struck Victor a resounding thwack over his fine bullet shaped head. Victor howled with rage drawing a knife a knife as long as a gold headed umbrella made a pass for the snowy throat of old Jimtrie. Jinimie threw up his arm, which was laid open its entire length, veins and arteries being cut as though they cost but five cents a cord. Victor made a dozen other vicious cuts about Allen's face and breast. Allen is in a very serious condition. He would have been killed had not bystanders interferred.

WAITING.

CHALK THE MARK.

A Uniform Oourse of Study to Be Adopted by the High Schools of the State. The State Board of Education has just issued the schedule of studies which must go into effect in all the commissioned high schools of the State. The idea in ordering a uniform course of study is to facilitate matters for those moving from one place to another, the present arrangement discommoding them greatly, as every high school has a different course. Schools may introduce other studies than those in the course, as for instance Greek, but the pupil who takes the prescribed course is entitled to a diploma from any commissioned high school in the State. The course will not go into effect at Crawfordsville this year, but it will have to next year. The course is as follows:

FIIIST YEAIt.

First term—Arithmetic, grammar, U. B. History, physiology. Second term—Arithmetic, grammar, civil governinont, physical geography.

Third term—Algebra, English composition, civil government, physical geography.

SECOND YE All.

First term—Algebra, English composition, American literature, Latin or German.

Second term—Algebra, rhetoric, American literature, Latin or German. Third term—Geometry, rhetoric, general history, Latin or German.

T1IIKD YEAH.

First term—Geometry, physics, general hisl"ry, Latin or German. Second term—Geometry, physics, general hisinrv, Latin or German.

First term—Mental science, botany, English literature. Latin or German. Second term—Mental science, botany, English literature, Latin or German.

Third i«rm—Trigonometry, botany, chemistry. Latin or German.

Dan Doty A° ain.

Dim W. Doty, of precious memory, has bobbed up serenely in St. Paul, Minn., where the Prohibitionists have nominated him for Judge of the Probate Court. Dan is reported to be fishing for an indorsement of the Republicans but he will not go down with them, of course. Dan's Crawfordsville career is well in mind to all who knew himDaniel was always endeavoring to attract attention to himself and erratic political meandering were as ludicrous as they were wonderful. His chief "extinguishment" whi here was his celebrated defense of Jim Dennis which came so near costing the genial Jiai his life. His escape, in fact, was no fault of Mr. Doty. The nerve of the young man in asking the support of Republicans iB simply hair raising but it is hardly among the possibilities that the Republicans of St. Paul will fall into the error of endorsing the wild young genius.

^The Methodist Succession. The time for the departure of Rev* G. W. Switzer, is drawing to a close and no little interest is being manifested in regard to his successor to the pastorate of the M. E. church. There are two names quite prominently mentioned just at present, Rev. J. H. HollingBworth, of South Bend, and Rev. H. A. Tucker, of Rochester. Both are eloquent ministers and have been eminently successful in their previous work. Either gentleman would make an excellent pastor and doubtless one of them succeed Mr. Switzer.

Rev. Frost Craft, who was mentioned prominently in connection with the position, has accepted a call to Bloomington, 111.

ONE MOfiE BIG ONE.

The Republican Meeting Saturday Night Was a Success and Will Make Votes. It is a good sign that the people are willing and anxious to hear Republican speeches this campaign. The O'Donnell meeting was the best political event of the season and the Jones-Hubbel meeting was hardly less a success. The distinguished speakers wore esoorted from the hotel to the Morton club rooms where, after music by the band and glee club, ten new members were taken. The line was then formed for the procession to the court house. Hon. P. S. Kennedy presided and introduced the speakers. Before each speech the glee club enlivened the occasion with a choice selection of campaign music.

Senator Hubbell spent most of his time in discussing the tariff question, and defining the positions of the two parties on that subject. Lie showod most conclusively that all that the friends af the McKinley bill had promised would result from thet measure had come about. Wages wero higher, employment more steady, new factories and new demands for laber, commodities which the Democrats predicted wouid get higher have gone down in price. The Republican party had given the people free sugar over the protest and vote of every Democrat in Congress and had thereby reduced the price of sugar from 8c. per pouud to 5c. He explained why the tariff on sugar was a tax on the people by making sugar highei, and how protection cheapened articles when it started competing industries in this country. The Republican party had cheapened sugar, saved the people §50,000,000 annually, and at the same time by the bounty clause, had given such encouragement to the production of beet sugar as would result in the production of our own supply of sugar by and by. M. llubbel's speeech was thorough and convincing, and WPS highly appreciated by his largo and in telligent audience.

Mr. Jones spoke mainly ofState issues. He brought to light the fact, known to few of our people, that it is now costing $30,000 annually to run the State house —that is for the labor employed in sweeping, cleaning spittoons, etc. He dwelt on the extravagance of the last legislature in its employment of dozens of door-keepers for no other reason than to give place to political bummers, and not satisfied with giving them 85 per day for loafing around the four doors of the two Houses paid them all 85 for loafing around the resorts as idlers on Sunday. He showed how the taxes of the farmer in many places had been increased to pay for these extravagances. Mr. Jones' speech elicited much applause and all felt the force of his telling points against theDemocratic party.

Will He Do?

In the last few days several have suggested to a reporter of the Courier that Colonel li. P. DeHart be appointed governor of the soldiers' home to be soon established at Tecumseh Trial upon a site donated by the Colonel. He is an old soldier, they say, and would be a fitting person to govern the home. There are BO many urging the Colonel's appointment and it is conceded by all that his selection would be highly appropriate.—LuFayeltc Courier.

There is but one objection to be urged to Col. DeHart's election. The bright blue uniform glittering with gold lace and brass buttons would be entirely too modest and retiring for Col. DeHart to habilitate himself. He is an emphatic dresser and without his "peni teutiary pants" life for him would be a barren waste. He would soon droop away and die like the disappointed girl in the sentimental novel.

Educational Column.

CITl .SCHOOLS ON THE 1NOHEASE. On opening day 1,024 pupils entered the public schools. This is a far greater number than for any first day in previous years. At the close of the first week 1,071 pupils were enrolled. These facts are somewhat remarkable, as many of the children have an unusual distance to walk while the contral school house is rebuilding. The school trustees have provided the best possible accommodations under the conditions, but some of the rooms are far from comfortable. At present twonty-five rooms are in session. Fifteon of them will be greatly improved as to comfort, convenience and distances on tlio completion of the central building.

SCl'IOOTJ GAIN AND TJOSS,

According to the records at present date the loss of school children to the city by moving out of the city is 79. The gain by moving in and by coming of school age ((5 years) is 184. This makes a net gain to the schools of 105. Just what part of this number belongs to new residents is not yet ascertained. Loss by graduation is more than balanced by the return of old pupils not in last year.

NEW TEAOHEltS.

In consequence of this increase the trustees found it necessary to engage another teacher for fourth year pupils who had assembled in Miss Grubb's room upwards of 80 strong. Miss Flora Work, a graduate of our high school, class of '90, was thereupon appointed. In making the divisions for the two rooms a line was drawn across the eastern part of the city, from the fair grounds to the Plum street depot, all pupils east of this lino falling to Miss Work, with school room at the Willson, and all west of said line to the old Walnut street lino to Miss Grubb's room, at the central.

HTIIIII ANOTIIElt ROOM AND TEAOUIilJ.

An increase of enrollment at hand from 30 to (i2, among the colored pupils at the Lincoln building, required the vacating of Miss Grubb's room which was at first established at the Lincoln, and the trustees appointed to the charge of a separate room of the primary colored children placed therein, Miss Martha F. Boothe, of Marion, Ind.

I'HESKNT OCCUPANCY AT CENTRAL. Four rooms will be fairly ready, so far as work upon them by carpenters and painters goes, on Monday next for temporary occupancy. The superintendent earnestly repuests that only such pupilB as are specially assigned to assemble at the central, or who have special business there to enter the grounds. Pupils should enter only at the north gate and keep strictly to the north walks and north hall, first floor, both entering and leaving the building. Some children are making a play ground and a thoroughfare of the grounds and buildinga fter school hours when teachers are away. This is not safe and therefore forbidden.

Against Fletcher.

The application of Foster Fletcher for a liquor license which was appealed from the commissioners of this county was refused liitn Wednesdayjby a jury of Parke county. The verdict was returned about o'clock and to say that Fletcher is stirred up does not express it. He is simply wild and will appeal to the Bupreme court.
