A Tip For V? alter Hulett.

We wonder if Mr. Hulett, of Montgomery county, ever investigated the record of O. S. Douglas, assistant editor of the Covington Friend, of this city. He had better do so before proceeding too far in having Brookshire recommend him for the post oifice.—Spence's Covin ton People's Paper.

Warner Wilbite Out.

Warner Wilhite has resigned his position as Chief of the Eastern Division in the Pension Office and will return to Crawfordsville early in April. Warner has the reputation of being a most efficient chief and his record is one among the best in the Pension Bureau. His friends are proud of his work.

A Great Mortality.

The last teachera's examination was exceptionally fatal and the poor things went down like corn stalks in a cyclone. There were 36 on examination and of this number there were but seven succeeded in getting licenses. The examination was very hard and all the papers were badly scratched up by the fatal blue pencil.

Mr. Cunningham Sore.

Con Cunningham is .very sore over his alleged disloyalty to the Democratic party and denounces all charges against him as false. He is especially bitter against Mr. Luse, of the Review and declared last Tuesday to a friend that the Review's statement was a blackmailing scheme and that fathar Luse merely wanted to shake him for a little. He further volunteered the pleasing insinuation that Mr. Luse had been run out of Anderson by an aroused and indignant community. Mr. Cunningham is out for blood.'

A Oedar of Lebanon.

The Lebanon Reporter speaking of the coy widow Roberts of this city, who was "hornswoggled" out of her farm by Col. H. A. Gilbert says:

She is a Lebanon woman and first appeared as the wife of Philip Shulmire of this city. During their wedded life she obtained a piece of property in this city nnd when divorced still held it. She then married a man named Hall and after a stormy married life of a few years they were divorced and she married a man named Ditzenberger and after their d.vorce, she now seems to want another man. She traded her property obtained from her first marriage for the farm her would-be hutband so handsomely took from her. She's a widow now, however, and hasn't even a mite.

Lamentations in Brown Township. On the last examination in Brown township there were 22 graduatec from the county schools to take their final examination. The twenty-two neat manuscripts were duly tied up in blue ribbon and handed to Trustee Wolfe who was to hand them to Superintendent .Zuck to be graded. Mr. Wolfe entrusted them to a gentleman who was coming to Crawfordsville and instructed him to leave them with Mr. Zuck. Mr. Znck has not yet seen them. The gentleman in whose care they were put left them on the train and the 22 aforementioned manuscripts so neatly tied up in blue ribbons and freighted with the hopes of 22 exjectant graduates in Brown township, continued their journey toward the frigid north. They have not been found and they probably never will be. Supt. Zuck is in a quandary. He shrinks from ordering another examination but sees no other way out of the difficulty.

Our Prospective Consul at Belfast. Con Cuniungham is well satisfied with his chance for securing the Belfast, Ireland, consulship. "But," he added with a smile, "there's many a slip 'twixt the enp and the lip, and if'l don't succeed I won't cry about it." "You met the President, of course?" "O yes, and a very line gentleman he is, indeed. I was accompanied by Senator Voorhees and we stayed about ten minutes. Mr. Cleveland was very pleasant, out did not make any promises more than that my claims would receive careful attention." "Have you any strong opposition?" "Of course there are many applicants but I am sure none with stronger backing than I have. I have the endorsement of both Indiana Senators, Congressman Brookshire and nearly all the Indiana delegation of Congressmen. Perhaps I may be sent somewhere else besides Belfast, but I prefer Belfast as it is the best position in Ireland, and besides is near my old home. I shall go to New York in a few days and from there make frequent trips to Washington in order to see how my prospects re."

SPREADING.

The Report That (Jon Cunningham's Democracy is Questionable Gaining Wide Currency.

The Indianapolis Netrs contains the following concerning the Con Cunningham matter:

The candidacy of Cornelius Cunningham, of Crawfordsville, fot the position of Consul at Belfust-, Ireland, and the fair chance he has of winnining, is causing the Democracy of Montgomery county to growl angrily. Mr. Cunningham was until after the election a prominent clotliiug merchant of Crawfordsville and quite a local politician. He is an Irishman, and having money and a native shrewdnes was naturally an important factor in politics, carrying as he did a considerable number of Irish votes in his vest pocket. It was noticed that he was rather quiet, during the last campain, but when a couple of months ago he sold his stores and announced himself as a candidate for the consulate at Belfast, the triumphant Democracy bade him Godspeed, and Congressman Brookshire, Senator Voorhees, John Lamb,Gil Shanklin and others promised him their influence.

Mr. Cunningham's candidacy, however, has given publicity to certain ugly stories concerning his party fealty which have caused his old comrades in arms to look askance. The Review, the Democratic or^an of Montgomery county, came out Saturday in a double-leaded editorial, siating the charges and demanding an investigation. It had been whispered about for some time that the loyalty of Cornelius to Jeffersonian principles was questionable, to say the least, and the Republicans laughed loudly as they boasted of Cunningham's offers to sell out last summer. John Johnson, ex-county recorder and a prominent Irish Republican, has taken peculiar delight in spreading the good news and relating his own personal experiences and chats with the candidate for the Belfast mission. The most reliable charge, however, is one that comes from John S. Brown. He did not make it public, but when it leaked out affirmed it and considered it a *ood j-ke on Cornelius. Mr. Brown is one of the wealthiest and most prominent citizens of Crawfordsville and is the ex-nrosident ot the First National Bank. He is one of the most prominent Republicans in the State, and na'urally when Mr. Cunningham felt a little shaky last summer in his faith, he could settle upon no better fat her-confessor than Mr. Brown. He accordingly sought him out and poured into his ears a tale of woe. Mr. Cunningham stated that he had, through reading and observation, been converted to the principles of the Republican party, and intended to vote for Harrison. He also intended to brieg with him into the fold twenty heretofore stanch Democrats. He desired some recognition for all this, however, and wanted Mr.Brown's assurance that in case victory alighted on the banner of the Republican party that he would receive the district's indorsement for the position he now seeks from Cleveland. M'. Brown stated that if Mr. Cunningham were really convert ed he should card the papers to that effect and openly espouse the party's cause. To this Mr. Cunningham demurred, stating that as he owned several stores and had other business he might have to fight a boycott should he desert his party at so critical a time. He stated that he would do his work secretly, and could do it more thoroughly. The disclosure has cauped a sensp.t.ion in Democratic ranks. He has just returned from Washington and untii Saturday was in high feather, stating that he had the support ot the Indiana delegation and other men of importance.

April Showers,

Prof. Hicks gives the following forecast for April: "A combination of causes conspire at the

ODening,

Two year old trot. Three year old trot: Three minute trot. Two forty trot. Two twent.v-eitfht trot. Two twenty trot. Two your old pace. Three year old pace. Two fifty puce. Two thirtj-iive unco. Two wenty-tour pace. Two fifteen pace.

and dur­

ing the entire month of April, which are calculated to produce disturbances of maximum severity, and which will overrun the. limits of the storm periods in their normal state. As we enter the period it will grow very warm in westerly parts, and heavy storms of thunder, rain, hail and tornadoes will develop and travel eastward, turning to snow and sleet in northerly sections. Expect a general cold wave to spread over the country as the storms pass to the eastward, and prepare for frosts, and considerable freezing northward in the intervening days and nights prior to about the 0th and 10th. On and about these days it will grow suddenly very warm, and reactionary storms will appear in many parte, and with marked energy. Heavy hail storms are almost sure to result. Another dash of coot to cold weather will fall in behind these disturbances, disappearing gradually up to about the 14th. Between the 13th and 18th the whole country will feel the effects of a very warm wave, and .storms of great violence are to be apprehended on or about the 15th, 10th and 17th. The disturbances from Xhe 13t,h to 18th are apt to be prolonged by existing causes into the reactionary storms due about the 21st and 22nd." It will be the part of wisdom to keep prudent watch on all threatening storm clouds that may arise during these disturbances or during the month. Be ready for destructive hail storms, and for very sudden changes to cold. The 26th is the central day of the last period for the month, which period embraces the 25th to 28th, inclusive. During this period it will grow very warm again, and many

heavy storms of rain, hail and thunder will travel from west to east across.out continent. After the storms look for cold rnd frost. The month promises to ud li cool.

BALDWIN PRIZB CONTEST.

An Interesting Oratorical Contest at Center Church. The annual Baldwin prize oratorical contest of Wabash College occurred last week at Center church oefore a large and interested audience. Dr. Burroughs presided and the opening prayer was made by Dr. It. J. Cunningham." Lloyu Hammond furnished the music for the occasion on the p'pe organ and proved himself quite an artist. The Baldwin contest is limited to members of the Senior class and the programme carried out laqt evening was as follows usic.

Abraham Lincoln.

John A. Uluir Crawfordsville The Conflict of the Closing Century, Edgar G. Davis.. ...Crawfordsville

Music.

The Harmony of Science and Religion, Ed^ar \V. Olive Indianapolis The Province of the Ideal, Philip K. Greene Crawfordsville

The speakers were all in excellent condition and the contest was above the average, every gentleman acquitting himeelf with the greatest credit and commanding the closest attention of the audience. The speeches were all varied and well prepared. Upon the conclusion of the speaking the judges, M. W. Bruner, Dr. C. L. Thomas and W. T'. Whittington, retired and made up their decision. They returned and announced that the prize had been awarded to P. F. Greenf, of Crawfordsville, who accnrdingly received the $40. The judges had graded the manuscripts before the contest on thought and composition. Only the name ot the winner of the prize was announced and the committee declined to make public the rank of the other contectants.

A PATRIOTIC ADDRESS.

To a Patriotic Oorcler—Remarks of Dr. Tucker on the Dangers to the Republic, The Methodist church was crowded to its utmost capacity Sunday night owing to the announcement, that Dr. Tucker would preach to the Patriotic Order Sons of America, on "Dangers to the Republic." The preacher opened up by remarking that he was not a pessimist and hoped no one would get that impression from what he was go»ng to say. Ho would epeak ot the prosperity and hope of perpetuity of the republic some other time. He mentioned first as a danger to the republic a lack of patriotism. There was a growing tendency to think of country last and selves firet, checked in a great measure by such patriotic organizations as^the P. O.S. of A. Other points touched upon and emphasized by statistics and otherwise were disregard of law, the spoils system, intemperance, ignorance, foreign immigra tion unrestricted, lack of support of public schools, the concentration of wealth. Although Dr. Tucker spoke at length his bearers paid the closest attention. The members of the P.O.S. of A. occupied neats in the center of the church wearing their handsome regalia and made a fine appearance.

A Pair Circuit Arranged.

Eight secretaries of fair associations met at the office of Morgan & Lee, Sat urday afternoon to arrange a circuit. Joseph Heavilon, of Frankfort, was elected president of the meeting and W. W. Morgan, secretary. The circuit was arranged as follows: August 14, New Ross and Sheridan August 21, Rockville and Lebanon August 28, Frankfort September 4, Lafayette September 11, Crawfordsville September 18, Covington and the State Fair. The classes in the sjjeed ring will be uniform as follows:

The entrance fee will l.e five por cent, with five per cent, additional from the winner. \g-f-

i, A Sad Death. Mrs. J. W. Cumberland entered into rest Monday morning, March 27, 1803, at her home. Margaret Speed was born in Edinburg, Scotland, July 1G, 1825, and came with her father, the late John Speed, to Crawfordsville in 1834. She married J. W. Cumberland, Jan. 30, 1849, and he with their four children survive her. The children are Mrs. A. C. Jennison, Mrs. A. O. Penniman,Frank S. Cumberland and Lew W. Cumberland. Her life more than usual was one of sickness and suffering, but was full to overflowing with gentleness, patience, helpfullness and love to all about her. Many beyond the circle of. her family will miss the beauty and fragrance of her chaiacter made perfect through suffering. Funeral on Thursday at 2 p. m. Interment at Oak Hill.

The Scholaiships Awarded.

The County Commissioners have awarded the two Wabash scholarships to which the county is entitled since the 84,000 donation, to Michael E. Foley, of Coal Creek township, and Walter T. Fink, of Ripley township. These two young men are worthy the honor conferred upon them and will no doubt make the most of their opportunity.

CRAWFORDSVILLE INDIANA SATURDAY, APRIL 1, 3898

THE PUSTOFFIUE FIGHT.

A Partial List of Those Who Desire to Handle the Mails. The number of patriots who are willing to sacrifice their health and social standing bv accepting the Crawfordsville postoffice grows larger every day, and it fills the casual observer with joy to note that whenever the country wants a sacrifice, a whole drove of victims can be readily found in the adjacent bnslies with their tails gracefully twisted and their willowy necks bended to receive the fatal blow.

This week the number of applicants for the postoffice has materially increased and should W. F. Hulett be 'assured of the collector-ship, there would be such a rush for the place that the aspirants for the position would be forced to go out of the city limits to find signers for their petitions. Every able minded Democrat who is not already in office would try his luck and endeavor as far as in him try to slip a long cheese knife under the fifth rib of all opposition. The following is a partial list of the more prominent aspirants with each one's claims and backing

C. W. Wright prophesied the outcome after hearing the returns from Illinois and is depending on his petition and the moral element of the community to pull him through.

W. W. Morgan has been a Democrat for lo, these many years and has undergone persecution for righteousness sake. He is depending on hie popularity and ability.

Ed Yoris has voted the Democratic ticket from his youth up. He is backed by Congr ssman Bynum of the Seventh district. It is rumored that in case Hulett gets the collectorship that Brookshire will work for Edward.

Milt MeMee has been a party worker for many years and has been "defeated several times for the grand old cause. He depends ou party service.

Sam Johuson has also been a wo ker I aud has faithfully distributed incendiary literature for years. He is an old soldI ier and that alone will be sufficient to defeat him. I J. P. Br.-unan has fought the batties of the triumphant. Democracy and partaken of the hard tack since the day he was able to whip the son of a Republican who lived next door and shouted for

Gen. Grant. Jim is backed by the Irish eleme and swears that if he doesn't get the office there will be something drop.

Harris Reynolds has been a wheel horse for the past forty years and has served the party through thick and thin, principally thin He relies on his record.

John A. Booe nas toiled and perspired in the

cause and is backed by

Senator Voorhees. He is an "ex" but is confident just the same. W. E. Henkle has proclaimed simon. pure Democracy through the undfiled columns of the "Weekly Ragged Reuben" and scissors in hand has bravely battled with the Philistines. He is backed by Tom Taggart and the Democratic chairman of this district.

Last but not least in love is W. F. Hulett. He can have it if he wa ts it. He wants something better however, and if he gets it will be willing that the others should have a free fight for the place.

Heath of Dr. Horace Winton. Word lias been received here of the death of Dr. Horace Winton at his home in North Manchester. He was a brother to Henry Winton and Mrs. J. G. McMechan and was raised in this city where he had many friends. The North Manchester Journal says in the course of its notice:

Dr. Horace Winton, one of the best known and highly respected residents of this city, died at his home last Friday. He had been in feeble health for over a year past and for several weeks preceding his death he had been confined to his bed. onstantly growing weaker with but little chance of recovery his death was not unexpected. Dr. Winton was born in Crawfordsville, this State, June 19, 1831. and is said to be the fourth white child born in that town. In boyhood he was the private pupil of Dr. Thomas, of Hamilton, Ohio, and later he attended Miami University at Oxford, Ohio, for a time, but completed his education at Wabash College at Crawfordsville. He moved to Wabash with his parents in 1850 and read medicine with his father, but afterwards attended Rush Medical College, Chicago, and Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. graduating from the' latter in 1855. He entered the practice of his profession in 185G in this city and has resided here almost continuously ever since. He was an unusually successful and skillful physician and built up a large practice which of recent years his tailing health has compelleu him to give up. He was married to Miss Mary Boggs on September 3, 1857, and their union was blessed with four children Louie, lone, Will and Don—all ot whom with their mother survive him. Both Dr. Winton and his wife were consistent members of the M. E. church for many years. There were few men in this community more widely known, more gen erally respected and more universally liked than Dr. Winton. The writer desires to express the high esteem in which we have held Dr. Winton as a physician, as a man and as a citizen.

AN AKE0LITE.

It Sizzes Through the Air Last Night Blmdine: and Terrorizing Two Men on a Lonely Road.

Mr. Carmielieal, of Chicago, is an agent for the Deering binder. He arrived in Crawfordsville last week and hiring a team from lnslov Darnall went to Alamo. Win. Sheets was his driver and they started on their return for Crawfordsville about. 7 o'clock. The terrific thunderstorm soon overtook them and about 8:lo o'clock they were climbing the long hill just this side of the old Hibernian mill. On their right was the wild wood which climbs the precipitous descent to the creek below and rising above the road shuts off the view from the south. On their left was a long stubble field. The rain was descending in torrents and the road an angry brook through which the horses patiently plodded in the inky blackness. Suddenly, however, a bright and blinding light broke through the woods on the right similar in brillianoy to that of a burning flash light. Before the startled men and horses could grasp an idea there shot over them a huge ball of white fire with ft rush like that of a mammoth sky rook et. From this huge ball of blazing light smaller balls continually broke off and exploded with a noise similar to a rattling discharge of musketry. The great ball shot toward the oar'th at an angle of perht.ps

45

degrees and before

they realized it struok in about the middle of the field. There was an explosion resembling that of a cannon and at once all

wbb

inky darkness. The

horses crouched to the earth paralyzed with fear and blinded. The men clutched each other and stared into the night seeing nothing but shaking with fear. The whole display had lasted but about three seconds but was one never to be forgotten- When gradually they were able to distinguish each other, and the ho-ses, the men perceived that they were surrounded by a bank of thick and suffocating smoke. The horses were urged forward and lountsvillo was reached before a word was spoken. Mr. Carmicheal told his story this morning and stated that his eyes were still suffering from the light. The horses stumbled all the way to town and frightened at every noise or flash cf lightning. Mr. Carmichael is satisfied that a large and valuable areolite fell within an hundred yards of him last night and declares that he would not undergo his experience for the whole county. Mr. Insley took Mr. Sheets and drove to the scene, of the fall to attempt to discover the treasure. Mr. Sheets talked with reluctance on the subject, he fearing, as he stated, that his veracity might be questioned. The areolite is said to have been about the size of a beer keg and the small balls of fire which broke off from it about the size of half pint whisKy bottles.

J. J. Insley and teveral other made a trip to the neighborhood of the Hibernian mill on Friday to look for the aerolite which Messrs. Carmicheal and Sheets had seen fall in a corn field the night before. The aerolite wan not found but in about the center of the field was found a large hole. By the side of it were found two blue rabbits and several lovely pink snakes which looked as though some cne had been trying to stamp them into the ground. The general contour of the pit formed by the falling meteor closely resembled that of a full blown bung hole.

ago a man by the name of Burnett arrived from Mie west and put up at the Peterson House, lie was dressod in much fine raiment and lived like a saint, lie had toast beef, fricaseed eggs and costly puddings, lie claimed to represent a Chicago clothing house and had left his samples at the Original Eagle in Indianapolis, and of course the good landlord received him with open arms. He was pronounced an invalid. He bought all the morphine there was in town, and smoked ten boxes of cigarettes a day. The foxy Burnett thought in order to escape without paying his bill wrote out a bogus telegram purporting to be from his employers staling that the clothing house would pay the board bill immediately. The Squire thinking everything right gaye him one dollar to. make things even. But the Squire soon came to grief. The telegraph operator told him that that message had never been received by him. The Squire bowed down in sack cloth and ashes and his lamentations could be heard clear out in his potato patoh. It was a clear case of forgery and the worthy Squire wants Mr. Burnett and thinks he could find him a place up north.

THE ENGINEER OP BL00MINGT0N.

He Agrees with Prof. Brown and the Mayor of fort "Wayne on the Sewer Question.

W. P. Butler, the city engineer of Bloomington, III., was kind enough to give us the benefit of his experience in regard to permanent improvements. He believes with Prof. Charles C. Brown, of Schenectady and Mayor Zollinger, of Fort Wayne, that sewerage should precede paving and that a sanitary survey should precede sewerage. He writes as follows:

Dear Sir

Your letter of Mar.

4,

18'J3, to the Mayor of this city has been referred to me. I have no hesitancy in saying that the proper way to proceed with your street improvements is to put in your sewerage, gas and water pipes first. Our experience with brick pavement is that when taken up it is difficult to relay, so that, it will be in as good condition as it was before being disturbed. No pavement is laid in this city before the sewerage, gas and water pipes are put in, also service pipes for ha same which extend to the curb for all property abutting the improvement which has not boon provided for. When it is necessarry to take up the pavement an application tind deposit of $25 is made in the city engineer's office after the work is done the city relays the pavement, deducts the amount from the deposit and returns the balance. The stand that Tins

ournal

takes iB cor­

rect, a survey should be made und a system of sewerage established. Yours truly,
