HIOKS FOR JUNE.

Hot and Gold—Wet and Dry—A Grand Combination of Extremes. By June 1st storms developing in the western regions the last of May will be advanced toward the central parts of the country. It will be quite warm, with easterly and ^nitherly winds in all the eastern parte, the areas of precipitation and storms will be approaching the central parts, while the far west and northwest will have winds shifting to westerly, with rising barometer and cooler. Storms will reach the extreme east by the third, and the change to cooler fair weather will have crosaed the continent. Warmer weather will center, in a progressive way, about the 6th and 7th, reaching a high temperature, and resulting in reactionary storms on and touching those dates. Westerly winds, rising barometer, with a cool spurt will follow about the 7 th to 9 th first to the west, later east.

About the 10th strong indications of the solstice storms will appear. Easterly to southerly winds will prevail—barometer will begin to fall, and it will grow Bteadily warmer, resulting in many active storms from the 11th to 14th. The temperature and storms are apt to reach a crisis about the new moon. Renewed activity of volcanoes and earthquake disturbances may naturally be expected, though not necessarily dangerous. They are the readjustments of natural forces, and should be looked upon as beneficent, rather than calamitous. There will be great electrical activity during these solstice storms, especially during the night, but no one Bhould be alarmed, as it will prove grander than disastrous. Our friends will remember the tendency of storms to whirl suddenly back from the east, from about the 10th to 25th of June. Showery conditions are liable during all that period, and local swirls will repeatedly fly back after passing east, unexpectedly taking the starch from the collars of careless and unsheltered people. Heavier reactionary storms will pass eastward about 17th to 19th, and should th» barometer not rise, and the wind remain easterly to southerly, a series of daily storms will fill the intervening days up to the next period.

From the '21st to 25th, inclusive, we will pass the turning point in our trip around the sun, and start for shorter days and longer nights. It will be nattiral to expect some heavy storms, with rain and much lightning and thunder, say about '23rd, 24th, 25th. Cooler weather will succeed these storms, and regions that are short of moisture at the end of this period will have to contend with serious drought. Reactionary disturbances are central on the 29th, with the full moon and the equinox of Mercury on the same day. These combined causas are sure to result in a warm wave and some very active electrical storms, with heavy local rains, during the two or three last days of June. The month will close with very cool weather advancing from the west, which condition will prevail in most parts in the opening clave of July.

No New Trial.

The court overruled the motion for a new trial in the case of Bart Murphy, the rioter, and exceptions were taken. Judge Langdon then told Murphy to stand up, asking him if he had anything to say in regard to the matter before judgment was passed. Murphy replied: "No, your honor, I have not. It would not be worth while there has been too much prejudice shown." The court immediately sentenced him to two years imprisonment and SI,000 fine, Sheriif Gaddis taking charge of. the prisoner and escorting him to the county jail. The defendent gave notice that an appeal would be taken to the Supreme Court. Murphy was taken to jail immediately after the sentence was pronounced and placed to the hospital ward of the prison. Here he has made himself as comfortable as possible, looks from his window down upon Fourth street, the thoroughfare along which he had walked for so long as a free citizen. Within three squares of the stone building in which he is now confined, and on the same ntreet, stands his little home with his wife and children he must leave behind when he dons the prison stripes there also stands the beer saloon he ran eo long, and which must now be conducted by other hands and heads. Sheriff Gaddis has not decided when he will remove Murphy to State's prison, but it will hardly be before Monday.— Lafayette Courier.

A Sermon on the Bnggs (Jase, A large congregation at Center oburch Sunday morning enjoyed very much the discourse of Dr. Cunningham who spoke pointedly and sensibly on the Briggs case in the General Assembly and its influence on church work. Dr. Cunningham lamented the controversy and denounced it as not only useless and unseemly but positively wicked. It giveB the outside world a bad and erroneous opinion of the Presbyterian church and causes a discord within the church that it will take many years to calm. The most of the men taking part in this wrangle are incapable of judging of the merits of the case and as they do not differ in the least on the great essentials of religion the whole thing is wicked and damaging. The good work the assembly might do is left undone and precious time wasted and misspent. Dr. Cunningham's sermon abounded in good points and found ready response in the hearts of his hearers.

GBHP1NE HYDROPHOBIA.

1

A Big Mad Dog with Green Eyes Creates Immense Excitement at the FairGrounds. There was a genuine ca6e of hydrophobia in town last Friday afternoon.

About 4*o'clock a big yellow shejjherd dog came trotting clown Market street from the east, its tail down, tongue hanging far out, frothing at the mouth, and its eyes turned to a green color and rolling wildly. There was no doubt of the animal having a genuine case of rabies, at least so thought the crowd of horsemen and jockeys at the east gate of the fair grounds as the dog came among them. There was a great scattering, but the mad dog went straight ahead snapping at everv object in its way. Jim Freeman's little Scotch terrier was the first victim and received a vicious bite on the shoulder. It is a symptom of hydrophobia that its victim travels in one direction until turned of its course by some hindrance. So this dog did and kept eight men on the jump for nearly an hour. When struck with a club or shot it only changed its course. At one time it changed eo suddenly that George Johnson, colored, had to climb a telegraph pole to get out of the way. Geo. llussell shot it three times with a revolver, and Jim Douglas three times with a target gun but still it did not succumb. There was great danger that it would bite the horses and cows stationed near by, some of which are valued at hundreds of dollars., and still more alarming was the presence of a crowd of little girls playing at the residence of George Russell a few hundred yards away. By hard work, however, the dog was prevented from biting anything else, and finally became eo exhausted that George Russell was able to take a pitchfork and stab him to death. Drs. Taylor and Hutchings were immediately called out and pronounced it almost beyond doubt a genuine case of rabies. Jim Freeman's terrier was ordered muzzled as was Policeman Grimes' dog who was reported by some children to have been fighting the mad dog. These two animals will bo carefully watched for the next six weeks for if they are to be attacked by hydrophobia it will be in that time. It is the duty al all persons who may have seen this mad dog attack any animal to report to Dr. Taylor, Dr. Hatchings or some member of the health board, in order that the animal

may be taken in charge.

Miss Mary Thomson's "Work. One of the neatest things of the week in the way of a musical novelty was the operatic idyl given at the closing concert of the Chicago Conservatory at the

Schiller Theatre. "II Tramonto" ("A Sunset"), by Boito and Coronaro, although known in Italy, has never before been done in this country. It is, however, as its name indicates, an operatic I idyl of purest ray serene. In movement and melody it would shame many a more pretentious composition. Two pupils of Sig. Vittorio Carpi carried the performance with a steadiness which could not be reasonably expected in the novice. Miss Cora Vance, with a pure soprano voice of much promise, and

Miss Mary P. Thomson, with a mezzo soprano of rare timbre and cultivation, entered into the performance with great spirit and won a success which must be regarded as quite remarkable. If Chicago can produce such promising operatic debutantes, skilled in voice as well as in action, it would seem that our operatic bondage to Europe need not last forever.—Chicago Post.

A Collage at Ladoga-

The Dunkard convention at Muncie decided to establish a new Dunkard college at Ladoga. The citizens of that place are to donate the old normal grounds and buildings worth $20,000 and put repairs on them to the amount of $5,000. In addition they will subscribe $15,000 worth of stock. The total stock is $40,000, of which $26,000 is already subscribed, thus assuring the success of the enterprise. The institution will be open next September with a corps of six or eight teachers and a Dunkard president. The Dunkards already have half a dozen good schools located in various parts of the United Statep, but they propose to make the standard of this institution higher than that of the otherb, and they expect the others to be feeders for the Ladoga college. We congratulate Montgomery county and Ladoga on the new acquisition. With two colleges in the county the standard of intelligence ought to be rapidly getting higher.

A Conscience,

If everyone had the conscience of old Pat Brennan the world would be better off. Over twenty years ago John Harpel had a bit of repairing done at Pat's cobbler shop, the bill for which was to be ten cents. It was in the days of the "shin plaster" and Harpel accidentally tendered Pat a fifty cent bill instead of a ten. Pat received it and said nothing but the othei" day as Harpel passed his shop he called him in and obliged him to accept the forty cents change due him. Pat stated that the deception had preyed on his mind ever since but he could never before bring himself to acknowledge the deception.

Death of Dan Thompson.

Dan Thompson, aged over 80 years, and an old resident of this county, died May 25th at his home near Elmdale. The funeral occurred this morning conducted by Rev. Darnell.

CALIFORNIA LETTER.

What Willie Whiteford Sees From His Window—The Chinese. To the Editor tlie Journal.

VALOXA, Contra Costa County, Cal., May 20, 1S93.—Yalona is situated on the Carquinez Straits, which connect SanPablo and Suisum Bays. I have an excellent view of the waters from my windows. Every day several ships come past, drawn by little tugs that are so small in comparison with the ships that if a tug would be 6een close to the ship a person who did not know what the use of a tug was, would hardly believe that it could pull it. A tug goes pretty fast and makes big waves come in shore. If a person stands on the beach, close to the water, he has to get out pretty quick if he does not want to get drenched. Several times I have been sitting on some rocks near the water watching a tug go past, and almost got into a doze. About ten minutes after an observer might see a boy olambering up the rocks as fast as ho could go, with a wave after him. There is no danger beyond getting wet. The bathing season has just commenced, and every warm day the water is full of boys. At low tide one can wade out almost a quarter of a mile, with the water hardly up to one's thighs, and half of that mud, when it suddenly shelves off so steeply and so far down that in the middle it is a quarter of a mile deep at low tide. A good many ships anch6r near, and one day we went to visit a four-master. We were shown all over the ship. It was a sail ship. I have never known a steam shijj to anchor here, though once in a while we see one go pa6t. It WBB an English ship ar.d made of iron. It had a cargo of coke for the smelting works. The name of the ship was "Alcides," and the captain "Dart," We first went through a pas-sage-way, which led to the parlor of the captain and his wife. I was surprised to find how nice everything was. I didnot think it would be BO on a sail ship. All the furniture was fastened in, and made firm, so it could not by any possibility fall. There was a fire-place, made eo that no fire could fall out a mantel-piece and a large mirror. Everything looked so nice and comfortable that I felt as though I would like to stay. We saw the berths which were very comfortable, especially one, which was very roomy and had a nice portbole to look out of. I think I could risk being sea-sick to take a voyage in that ship. She was new, and this was her first voyage. She left two days afterwards for SanFrancisco, from which she will leave for England on her long voyage around Cape Horn. The "Monterey" left SanPable Bay a few days ago, where she has been held by four fish-nets caught around her propellers. She had started from Mare Island to go to the Union iron works to have some armor-plates put on, and had reached SanPablo bay when her twin propellers were caught in the nets, which, of couree, stopped her. She lay there a week before she could get them off. She was plainly visible from Yalona, and many opera and 6py-glasses were brought out. At length she got off, and is now only a memory.

So far as I can find out the Chinese have registered only in cases of necessity. We asked one who brought fruit and vegetables if he had registered, and he answered: "Yes, me got two wives, too mucbee expense to take back." The Californians are in general very jubilant because the Supreme Court has declared the Geary law to be constitutional. In some towns the Chinese had to be warned off the streets for fear the people might do them harm. I am glad to hear that Hong Guay has registered. I had been thinking about him a few days before and wondering whether he had done so or not, when the paper came telling all about it. Yours truly,

ORAWFORDSVILLE INDIANA SATURDAY, JUNE 1893

WILLIAM J. WHITEFORD,

The Fauver Favorites,

Mrs. Jennie Fauver, of East Market street, tendered the neighborhood a delightful surprise last Friday by applying for a divorce from her husband, gallant Gilbert Furver, the beautiful and accomplished watchman at the Main street crossing of the Monon. This happy event was brought about, eo the complaint alleges, by a series of pleasant little family fights in which Gilbert always assumed the role of a conquering hero and Jennie that of a vanquished barbarian. Gilbert delighted in the little game to such an extent that Jennie grew moBt awfully tired and finally decided to drown her sorrows in the pond of the divorce mill.

Burned Down.

The old saw mill of the Valley Mill Company just acrosB Sperry bridge burned last Friday at an early hour. The flour mill was untouched. The fire originated in the saw dust. It was the intention to close the mill to-morrow anyhow so it will not be rebuilt. The loss was merely nominal with no insurance.

Suit for Damages.

D. W. Henry, administrator of the estate of the late Capt. C. S. Wesner, last Friday filed suit in the Boone circuit court against J. C. Brown, who shot and killed Wesner at Danville, on the 20th inst., asking damages in the sum of $10,000. The complaint alleges that Brown did the shooting feloniously and with premeditated malice.

On? DEAD HEROES-

THEIR "WIND0WLESS HOMES" ARE E E E W IT A S A N FLOWERS.

Memorial Day In This City—Notes Concerning the Occasion.

"T'ron a Nation's jrnitol'ul heart. 11 icy're writ ten down Ity memory's pen, •And tin shall never diuv erase-'""

The deeds of patriotic men." On Memorial Day a grateful Nation bedecks the resting jjlaces of the defenders of our Union with flags, and flowers—gathered, selected, cultivated, heaven's purest and choicest offerings.

It is with a feeling of grief that we look upon the graves of many of the Boys in Blue, who have died since last we observed Memorial Day. Then they were among us and active in honoring the memory of the heroes dead too, many of the soldiers with us now in strewing flowers among the dead, will, in a year hence, be enrolled upon the scroll of the patriotic band in that silent, slumbering army, to await the bright morn of resurrection day. On each Memorial Day it is boautifui to see the silver-haired veterans carrying these floral oileripgs to the last resting places of their comrades, but the pleasure is saddened by the reflection that in a very short time but few of that grand old aamy will be among the living and then we must mournfully acknowledge: "The mullled drum's sad roll has beat

The soldiers'last tattoo, No more on life's parade shall meet The brave and gallant few." Therefore, a day among the graves of our honored dead with this generation is of untold worth to us. It teaches us not to forget the price of liberty—from the days of the revolution to the present hour—nor suffer UB to become indifferent to its claims. If we fail to transmit the patriotism of our fathers to the present, and succeeding generations, this Nation will drift into the regions of indulgence and doubt, and when the last scarred veteran, with empty sleeve and false limb, has gone to his grave, the lessons taught by the history of the past will be forgotten.

Tuesday morning the decorating committees met at the court house, where the flowers were arranged and wre^hs made. At 10 o'clock a start was made for the several cemeteries, where a flag and some flowers were placed upon the mound of each comrade. The committees on decoration were as follows:

jPrayer by Comrade Itev. 11. A. Tucker. Music by Quartette. Heading of Orders by Adjutant.

Salute to tho Dead by Post. Music by Band.

Address by Comrado Jas. S. Ostrander. uslc by Quartette. Benediction. The address of Major Ostrander, of Richmond, was replete with patriotic thoughts expressed in the most beautiful diction. Indeed the entire address was a poem in prose. It was a glowing tribute to the memory of those who gave up their lives that this Nation might live. "You," said the orator, "know how the line stretches out, your name is legion and your deeds countless as the sands richer than kingly ransom, they grow with the years and live forever, the royal inheritance of the free. A grateful country kneels at your shrine and does homage to your memory."

In returning the procession went Bouth to Pike street, thence to Water, to

Main, to Washington and to headquarters.

NOTES OF INTEREST.

The civil war cost $6,189,929,909. The address of James 8. Ostrander in the afternoon was a masterly .effort and

NUMKKR 23

was received with evident approval by the audience. Co. 1 firing squad were dressed in the Zouave uniform.

The business houses were generally closed in the afternoon, until (1 o'clock. Tho cost of the war, if divided among tho number of slaves set free, would average 8700 per slave. "It always rains on Decoration Day," but it is also truo that tbe graves are strewn with Mowers just the same.

On June 1 1, 1777, the Continental Congress passed a resolution adopting a Hag of red, white and blue as a national emblem.

There were :S'2S escapes from Andersonville prison, and 12,-182 deaths onethird dyinjjr in the stockade and the others in the hospital.

Flags were very numerous and the business houses were profusely decoratod, presenting a sight that brought joy to the heart of every true citizen.

During the progress of the late war '212,008 Union troops were captured, anil '17(5,109 Confederate 10,dill Union troops were paroled on tho field, and 2-18,599 Confederates.

The total number of soldiers in the late war was 2,053,002. Indiana furnished 195,117, and New York led with 455,508. There were also 180,017 colored troops, 1,597 from Indiana.

During the civil war 279,"170 Union men died, but 01,!W2 being killed in battle. Disease took oil' 1811,287, and wounds utilised tho death of 151,727. The Confederate dead numbered 1 '33,821.

The Nation's dead rest in 79 National cemeteries, 07 being in Southern States. In these cemeteries 300,000 u:an are buried, over half of the graves being marked "unknown." In the Salisbury prison cemetery there are 12,130 buried, of whom 12,032 are unknown. The largest number buried in any one cemetery is 10,000 at Vicksburg, and 12,704 of these are unknown.

When one passes from the head to the other extremity of the human body one comes upon a somewhat unexpected but vory pronounced characteristic— the relic of the tail, and not only of the tail, but of muscles for wagging it. Everyone who lirst sees a human skeleton is amazed at this discovery. At the end of the vertebral column, curling faintly outward in suggeBtive fashion, are three, four, and occasionally five vertebras forming the coocyx, a true rudimentary tail. In this adult thiB is always concealed beneath the bkin, but in the embryo, both in man and ape, at an early stage it is much longer than the limbs. What is decisive as to its true nature, however, is that even in the embryo of man the muscles for wagging it ure still found. In the grown-up human being these muscles are are represented by bands of fibrous tissue, but cases are known where the actual muscles persist through life. That a distinct external tail should not be Btill found in Man may seem disappointing to the evolutionist. But the want of a tail argues more for the theory of Evolution than its presence would have done. It would have been contrary to the Theory of Descent had he possessed a longer tail. For all the anthropoids most allied to Man have long since also parted with theirs.—Professor Henry Drummond, in McClure's Magazine for June.
