Hand Out Off.

Frank Able, a Monon brakeman,while uncoupling cars at Ladoga last Saturing had his left hand cut off near the wrist. He was brought to this city where Dr. Ensminger dressed his wounds.

Of Course it iSurned.

Saturday night J. Hoover, living south of Waveland, went to his barn with a lantern. When through his work he "extinguished'' the lantern and went away. Soon the barn was in llames and was destroyed with .ill its utensils including three valuable horses.

A pleasant wedding occurred at the residence of the bride,Miss Mary Housh, on Oct. 27, whose fortunes were united with those of Samuel J. Pevler. The ceremony was performed at 8 o'clock by Rev. G. P. Fuson in the presence of about twenty.five intimate friends and relatives.

Noah's Name.

Noah Flannigan is quite a sore man. He was nominated for county sheriff both by the People's party and by the Prohibitionists. It came to pass, however, that when the People's Party secretary, Harmon Iliatt, sent the names of his candidates in he omitted the name of Mr. Flnnnigan. Consequently it does not appear on the ticket and it will be somewhat difficult for the People's Party folks to vote for him. This oversight (in the part of Mr. Hiatt will probably result in the election of either Mr. Davis or Mr. Bible. It is passing strange what harm and trouble little oversights like this will sometimes work.

Keturn Postal Oards.

The return postal cards were to have been placed on sale October 10th, but as yet none have been received here. Many persons do not understand what the return postal cards are. A returned card is just what its name indicates, a card to be returned with the answer to the card received. In other words, there are two cards together with a perforation. If you desire to write to some one on a postal card and desire to provide for an answer you buy the new style card, which has one card for you to use and one on which your correspondent can answer.t For some time nearly all governments except the United States have had in use international return cards. At the Vienna conference of the Universal Postal union last July the United States decided to issue those international return cards, and now it seems that domestic return cards are also to be issued.

QUITE A HISTORY.

Youngest

Dr. H. A. Tucker Was ihe Soklier in the War, Dr. Tucker was born in Ohio on Christmas day in 1819. When he was 12 years old the great rebellion broke out and he enlisted in the famous Fremont Rangers. lie served for four years, or until tho war closed and during the last two yeais was a non-com-missioned oflicer. After tho cessation of hostilities he began his work of acquiring an education and in 1S7G, the centennial year, he graduated from Yale college. He is also a graduate of the divinity school. After completing hie studies Dr. Tucker spent a year's travel in Europe and upon his return to America entered the ministry and was for 10 years stationed in Kansas. Here he took an active part in bringing about constitutional prohibition. Three years ago he came to Indiana and before coming here was stationed at Plymouth and

Rochester. Dr. Tucker holds the degrees of M. A. from Beloit College, A. B. and B. D. from Yale, and D. D. from Wesleyan University, of Middletown, Conn., the leading Methodist college of the country. His family consists of a wifo and four children, "the best in the world." Dr. Tucker is a pulpit orator of no mean ability and is a pleasant and companionable gentleman. THE JOURNAL takes pleasure in extending to him a hearty and cordial welcome to Crawfordsville.

Killed on the Road.

The funeral of John O'Connor, who was killed at Indianapolis Wednesday night, occurred on Oct. 28 from St. Bernard's Catholic church, conducted by Father J. R. Dinnen. Mr. O'Connor was rf-ised several miles south of this city and had a large circle of friends here. He removed to Indianapolis only a short time ago. The Indianajwlis Journal gives the following account of his tragic death:

John O'Conuer was killed at the Benton street crossing of the Panhandle railroad last night, but just how or by what engine will probably never be known. At a few minutes past 11 o'clock John Brooks, a Panhandle conductor, was passing the place on the engine under his charge, and saw the body lying beside the trtick. The man seemed to have been dead for an hour or more. The body, as it lay beside the track, was terribly cut and mangled and death was undoubtedly instantaneous. The right foot was cut off as was also the left hand and there was a terrible cut in the back, fully a foot long, and several smaller cuts about the head and face. No one knew at what time the .accident happened or what engine struck the man. At the yards further east they were inclined to believe that he had been struck by switch engine No. 311. The deceased was about 40 years of age, unmarried, and had been living at the corner of Benton and Meek streets. When the body was found Kreglo A: Wliitsett were notified and the body removed to their morgue.

fion. W. S. Carpenter's Canvass Hon. W. S. Carpenter and Hon. M. D. White closed the week of their tour of the county at New Market last Friday At every point where they were advertised to speak they had large, a'ttentivo and enthusiastic audiences. Beginning at Darlington last Monday evening they went from there to New Richmond bV way ofKirkpatrick and Linden. Wednesday evening they were at Wavnetown reaching that point by way of Wingate. Thursday afternoon they spoke at Alamo to a crowded house, and at Waveland on Thursday night. On Friday night they were at New Market going by way of Ladoga. Republicans are alive in every townshio visited and Mr. Carpenter has no fears but that Montgomery county will do her whole duty and assist in electing Mr. Brookshire to stay at Home As Mr. Carpenter is Clerk of Clay county he was compelled^ leaveSaturday morning for Indianapolis to procure the State ballots for his county.

first Come, First Served.

Indian, and perhajjs white, bones have been discovered in considerable quantities near Crawfordsville. These and other relics found throughout tlje State have an importont bearing on the past history of Indiana, and they should be carefully preserved as a link in tho chain uniting tho present with the past. We are glad to note that an historical cabinet has been established for this purpose at Purdue.—LaFayeite Call.

If the historical cabinet wants any of these bones it had better hurry down here and begin scratching in the sand along with Jack YanHook and thoTilney children who have already secured several very desirable arm loads of the bones of poor Lo.

Fence Uurned.

Last Friday duriDg the high wind the fences on the place of Uarloy Wilkinson south of the city took lire from some unknown cause and about 100 rods were destroyed before it was gotten under control. The fences were comparatively new aad the loss is consequently quite heavy.

SPLENDID DEMONSTRATION.

THE WORKINCMAN'S SMOKE.

p. A

Chaplain Lozier and the Old Veterans Take the Town. The meeting of Chaplain Lozier at Music Hall last Saturday was a great Buccess. Early in the morning the old soldiers of the county, together with other Republicans not eoldiers, began to arrive in the city and by 1 o'clock the streets were lined with people from out of the city. The band headed the procession of several hundred veterans and citizens who escorted the Chaplain to Music Hall where the speaking occurred. The parade was the best witnessed here this campaign and for a daylight demonstration was splendid. When Music Hall was reachcd the procession opened ranks and the carriage containing the speaker passed through and the whole crowd surged into the hall filling it completely. After a piece by the band Hon. C. M. Travis introduced Chaplain Lozier in a most happy manner. Chaplain Lozier responded in as equally a happy and effective way and then proceeded to load the glee club in a rousing song, the whole audience joining in the chorus to the refrain of "John Brown's Body." After tho song Chaplain Lozier began his address and held the attention of his audience during his long and splendid speech.

He talked to the soldiers particularly but dealt with living issues and treated them in a concise and logical way. Chaplain Lozier merits the great name he has and can amuse as well as convince his audiences.

The Midland.

The financial affairs of the Indiana Midland road took a new turn last week. When the old Anderson, Lebanon and St. Louis was being built, Anderson township, in Madison county, voted aid to the amount of §30,000, and paid $13,000 of it Noblesville and Washington, in Hamilton county, voted §52,000, and paid SI9,500 Clark, Scott and Brown townships, in Montgomery county, voted 8-17,000 and paid about SB,000. When the Midland railroad completed the track through these counties the county authorities were asked for the S88.500, of unpaid subsidies. Some of the townships wanted to pay, and Clark township, in Montgomery county, went before the board with a petition" signed by 144 of the leading citizens, and the tax was put on the duplicate but law suits followed and the old Midland company has never been able to collect one cent. "This," says an Indiana Midland friend, "has been the root of all the trouble of the Midland. The old creditors of the Anderson, Lebanon & St. Louis appeared in the Montgomery Circuit Court, and had A. B. Anderson appointed receiver, and his attorney, F. P. Mount, of Crawfordsville, filed a suit in each of the counties to collect three unpaid subsidies for the benefit of the creditors of the Andereon, Lebanon A- St. Louis. The Midland claimed that they built the road, and should have the subsidies, but were unable to collect. Now the receiver of the A., L. A* St. L. will have hid inning."

Death of Thomas Davis.

Thomas Davis, aged 87 years, died Saturday afternoon at his home west of the city. Tbe funeral occurred on Tuesday at 11 o'clock conducted by Rev. G. P. Fuson. Mr. Davis was a brother to Warren Davis and one of the earliest settlers of this county. He was a good citizen, sober, industrious and law abidding, charitable to the poor and with a pleasant word for all. He was a consistent member of the Baptist church and died lamented by all who knew him.

They Got Married, Nev^r to Part. Dole llazlett and Miss Myrtle Southerlin, who eloped from Bainbridge, returned hero last Friday from Danville, HI., married good and tight.

News From New Ross.

Special Correspondence The Journal. NEW ROBS, Oct. 31.—Saturday, as Charles Airliart, who lives two miles east of here, was working in his father's woods with his team. He had left tho team standing and before he had gone far the horses took fright and started to run, when Chas. jumped into tho wagon to stop them. They ran the wagon over a stump, throwing him out in front of the wheels upon his head. Both wheels passed over hie chest and his hands were badly cut, and he was unconscious for quite awhile. When he revived he went to the house exhausted. A doctor was .summoned and he is now much better. The horses tore the wagon to smithereens and the harness were torn of

AS TO DIVORCES.

Some Suggestions In Regard to the tailing of a Growinf National proach.

(JurRe-

Last Sunday one of the popular pastors of the city, while seeking the cause of the alarming number of divorces, declared that "the publication of the filing of divorce suits in the daily papers is a standing advertisement prompting the desire of every man and wifo who have the slightest domestic jar to this easy remedy," says the Indianapolis Journal. The number of divorces per annum constitute about one per cent, of the number of marriages in this country. The number of what may be called "improper marriages" is largely in excess of 1 per cent, a year of the whole number. If the improper marriages could be stopped or curtailed, tho number of divorces would fall off very rapidly Only so far as the newspapers give accounts of run-away or other improper marriages, and thereby show that nearly any two persons in the country who wish to be married can be, are they responsible for improper marriages. Can the great body of the clergy say as much? Many of them, perhaps most of them, are careful in the matter of performing the marriage ceremcay but it is, nevertheless a well known fuct that any two young people whose appearance indicate that they are minors never have any serious difficulty in finding a clergyman who will perform for them the ceremony of marriage. It is by no means a rare orcurrence, in a city like this, that young people incapable of self support and in spite of the protests of parents go secrotly to a clergyman and are married without question. People of dissolute habits or incapable of self support rarely lind any hindrance to marriage. Indeed, the opinion is current that anybody who can got a 'mar riago license can find a clergyman who will perform the marriage ceremony. It is, then, cause for surprise that a relation which can so thoughlesslv bo assumed, without the least scrutiny as to fitness, should deprive marriage of much of the restraint and sanctity which are essential to public morals, and should end in tho divorce courts? The pulpit has done its duty in attempting to create a sentiment against divorce and demanding strict divorce laws. It has done much good by its efforts, but if it would turn its attention to tho prevailing laxity, which is notorious in the solemnization of marriage and adopt in each denomination a system of scrutiny which would lend to curtail the evil, the clergy would render public morals a timely service and destroy tho most prolific source of divorce. The .Journal offers a suggestion in return for a rereproof.

OURLD OF DISTEMPER.

Miio Tomlinson's Attempt to Fumiaato Results Disastrously for Himself and Property.

Last Friday MiloTomlinson, who reaides nine miles north of this city and beyond the McClainrock school house, had a narrow escape from death and lost some valuable horses and a barn, as a result of being a little too IOOBO with lire. Mr. Tomlinson deals quite extensively in horses and last fair had a nutuber of running horses here for tho races, During the past month he has been collecting a carload for shipment and yesterday had six tine animals in the barn. One oT them seemed slightly affected with distemper and in order to fumigate the barn and relieve the horse Mr. Tomlinson resolved to burn leather in the place. Accordingly, taking a large shovol full of live coals and some scraps ho proceeded to tho stable. He entered and began to fumigate the stable in the most thorough manner. Just how it happened he will nover know

but suddenly he waB conscious of a terrible blow in the stomach which sent him Hying across the building while the 's air seemed full of live coals and burning leather. Under the pain he fainted and a unable to state how long he remained in that condition. Finally, however, he began to recover consciousness and his first impression or instinot was to crawl from the barn which was full of smoke and already on lire. Tho terrified and trembling horses witli starting eyes and low whinnners of fear wore crouching and cowering in the cornors of their stalls unable and unwilling to move. Even hail they boon anxious to leave Tomlinson was in no condition to loose them. Groaning with pain and half suffocated with tho blinding smoke it was only by gritting his teeth and firmly resolving not to die like a rat in a trap that he was able to orawl from tho doomed building. On his hands and knees I10 dragged liiniBelf through the door and fell fainting again in the stable lot. The fire was soon discovered but if Tomlinson had wailed for assistance it would have come to lalo. Before anything could bo done tho stable was a seething, roaring bank of angry fire from which emitted tho agonized almost human shrieks of tho perishing horses. Tomlinson was carried to the house and the neighboring doctor quickly summoned while a messengerwas dispatched to Crawfordsville for

Dr. Jones. The patient suffers greatly and is injured internally to a serious degree, how seriously it is yet uncertain. The barn was a valuable one stored with food and grain so the loss is quite largo. Among the horses burned were the well known racers, "Mnmory" and "By Tom." Upon these two horses there was SI,450 insurance. Both took part in the races here last fall and "By Tom" won everything he entered hands down. lie was a fine anil exceedingly valuable animal.

DELIGHTFUL RECEPTION.

Alumni and Former Students of Wabash College Entertained hy T. H. Intine. On Oct. 27 at their elegant home on College Hill Mr. and Mrs. T. 11. Ristinewereat home to the local alumni and former students of Wabash College. Tho affair partook of the nature of both a reception and a reunion and was in honor of Doctor and Mrs. Burroughs. The residence was tastefully decorated for the occasion with vines and flowers, chrysanthemums predominating in all the rooms and serving as favors in the dining room where dainty refreshments were provided for the guests. Tho hours of entertainment wore between 7 and 10 oclock and of the hundred or BO guests present nearly all remained the full time. Mrs. llistine was assisted in entertaining by several of her lady friends and although there was, of course, a large predominance of gentlemen the few ladies doing the honors caused the time to pass most agreeably by All the guests, who had not previously met Dr. Burroughs and wife, united in voicing the splendid impression made upon them. Among those present was Doctor Tuttle, whose happy words and manner served to render the occasion all the more delightful and agreeable. The re-' ception was a decided success and no doubt aided materially in drawing the new president, and the city closer together in their efforts to make Wabash College a greater and more renowned power for good in tho world.
