A HAPPY SURPRISE.

(•tMieral M. I). Manson Koiiioinberod by the Volunteer Soldiers of His Old Command.

Last Friday at the home of Gen. M. 1). Manson occurred a most happy reunion and surprise. At 2 o'clock all the surviving soldiers of those who enlisted tinder Gen. JIanson at the beginning of the war for three months' service from this county assembled at the court house and marched to the home of their old commander, lie. was not expecting them, of course, but he was overjoyed to see his old comrades in arms and he tendered them a most cordial reception. Several hours were most pleasurably passed by the brave men who had volunteered 'at the nation's first call and the occasion will long remain as a memorable one in the minds of all who were present. A pair of handsome willow chairs were presented to Gen. and Mrs. Manson by the old soldiers of the company as a testimonial of their high esteem. To this mark of affection Gen. Manson very feelingly responded. An elegant repast had been prepared by Mrs. Manson and all those present did it ample justice. It was just thirty-three years ago to-day that these soldiers left

Crawfordsville to enter the service and on April 24, 1801, they were mustered into service at Indianapolis. They made an elegant record during the term of their enlistment and most of them continued in the service until the end of the wari

Col. Budd Failing.

All old residents of this and adjoining counties know Col. Caspar Budd, who during the war was Colonel of the Fourth Indiana Legion. He was a terror to the copperheads who operated in this section and he maintained excellent order here in those uncertain times. The following from the Waveland Independent will be sad news to his many friends:

Dr. Ivelso reports that Col. Budd has ost his mind. He doesn't know even he members of the family. He has been afraid of such a fate for some time. Last winter the old gentleman became afflicted with aphasia, or a lack lof words to express- his ideas, which tmade ordinary conversation very ditlicult for him. He worried over this a great deal, and to the writer expressed the belief that he was failing mentally.

It is likely that this worrying has helped to unbalance his once brilliant mind. His physical condition is also very bad.

Trustees Visit lliooiiiiiigloii. Bloomington 7'elephuuc: The trustees of the Crawfordsville schools and an architect were in the city yesterday afternoon inspecting our new school house. They met our trustees at the train, when all made a careful tour of the building. The party was composed of J. C. Barnhill, M. W. Brunei-, M. V. Wert and E. H. Cowan, and when called on at the National late in the evening expressed themselves as well pleased with our new building, regarding it as a fine piece of workmanship for the money expended.

GSM COMPROMISED.

31 IK.

Milt llarshlmi'Kcr Is Awarded l»y l!w Four Kailroad Company,

I'lie suit of Mrs. Mill Harsh burger, of .New RONS. for $10,000 damages linst the l!ig Four Kail road Company came to a sudden close in the circuit court last Friday.

The testimony began Thursday and the plain!ill'developed a very strong case. She proved that her iujuries received at New Ross by falling over a pile of lumber left 011 the platform at night, were undoubtedly due to the negligence of the employes of the road. Mrs. Harsh barker's injured foot was shown to the jury and the doctor made a statement of the case. The foot was pitifully twisted and deformed and the spectacle evidently made a very strong impression on the jury. It seemed pretty sure that the plaintiff had a clear case, so the road was ready to compromise. The compromise was effected on Friday after the jury were in their places ready, for the evidence to begin. By the terms of the agreement Mrs. Harsh burger's suit for §10,000 and her husband's suit for S5.000 are both dismissed and Mrs. Ilarshbarger receives.S3,500 cash. Each party to the suit pays its own costs. There is a difference of medical opinion as to the probability of Mrs. Ilarshbarger ever recovering the perfect use of her foot—some physicians believing that by proper treatment she can re cover from the disability, while others stoutly maintain that she cannot.

Birthday Surprise.

Jasper Malsbury, of extreme east Wabash avenue, celebrated the 51st anniversary of his birth Friday—or rather, he had it celebrated for him At noon a large company of his x-ela-tives and friends tendered him a delightful surprise part at his home, coming with baskets of choice viands and with the intention of having a good time. The time was most delightfully passed and after the elegant dinner the guests were entertained in various ways. A photographer arrived in the afternoon and photographed the party. Among those present from out of the city were Mrs. Malinda Hawkins and Mrs. Mary Todd, of Cincinnati, J. L. McClure, of Baldwin, Kan. John Coyle and wife,oof Danville, 111. John V. Malsbury and family, of Romney, and

A. M. Malsbury, of Rantoul., 111.

Gravel Koad Specifications.

Commissioners Peterson and Byers have completed their gravel road specifications and have filed them in the Auditor's office, where those desiring to make bids on the work can look over them. Mr. Fullen has not yet filed his specifications.

Mr. Peterson reports that he has 107% miles of gravel road iin his dis triet and that it will require 0,03 yards of gravel to place them in good repair.

Mr. Byers has about 95 miles of gravel road in his district and it will require 5,800 yards of gravel to effect the proper repairs.

More Iturglars at |IIillsboro.

Special to The Jo jrmil. Hili.shoko Ind., April 20,

1804.—

This village was again visited by burglars last night and Sumner & Heffner's hardware store entered, but nothing of value was taken from them. Ross it Welt's restaurant was broken into and S-'i in cash and a few boxes of cigars were taken. L. A. Sumner's drug store was also entered and a few cigars and other articles taken. No clue has been obtained, but it is the general opinion that the work is that of home talent. A meeting of the businessmen will be called and an effort will be made to hire a night watch, as there has been entirely too much of this kind of work going on here of late.

Jim Iilinore Turned Down.

Jim Elmore, the famous diplomat of Ripley township, was on the February teachers' examination and when the manuscripts were graded the name of Jimmie was on the lisit of those who had to "try, try again.'' Jimmie, however, was decidedly adverse to trying again and kicked with the celestial inspiration of a Rocky Mountain mule. He appealed to the State superintendent, Mr. Vories, and the result of the appeal was made known to-day. His manuscript was re-graded by the State superintendent, who sustained Mr. Zuck and gave Jimmie a very black eye by grading him lower than the county superintendent graded him.

Counterfeit Dollar.

A number of new counterfeit silver dollars of the date of 1885 are in circulation. They are light in weight and the metal is quite bright. The milling on the dollar is first class and the counterfeit is a dangerous one. Several have been passed in this city and other towns in the central part of the State. Note the appearance of the spurious coin.

WILL ASK A FRANCHISE.

New AVator Work*'Company \\\)f Ask for a Franchise Next Monday F.\rninu-

On next Monday evening A sey and others will present a to the city council asking that ehise be given them to put. in water works plant in this city. franchise asked will provide a schedule of water rates to private consumers at. ibout half the expense of those now xtorted by the Stanton-Collin syndicate which operates the thumb screws of the Crawfordsville Water X-, Light Company. The franchise will also askthat at the expiration of the city's contract with the present company that the city contract with the new company for lire protection at a rate greatly reduced from that which the city is now paying.

The new company will be backed by business hustle and by money and will have with it the hearty g-ood will of a long suffering citizenship. The syndicate was nailed to the plank in the electric light business because it became too gay and there is no reason to doubt that it will suffer the same fate in the water business. It does not pay to monkey with the Crawfordsville buzz saw. The council cannot grant the proposed franchise too quickly to please the goorl oeople of the Hoosier Athens.

I'liKt Day of tlio I'resliyterial. At 1:30 p. m. Thursday occurred the last meeting of the Women's Missionary Society of the Crawfordsville l'res bytery. The devotional exercises were led by Mrs. L.

This was followed by adiscusion on "How to arouse and hold the interest of the children in mission work." Mrs. Inglis was to have lead this discussion but owing to sickness she could not be present. Miss Merrill,of Clinton, read a paper on this line of work. Mrs. Blair, of this city, and others gave their methods in this work.

Mrs. F. MeCrea, of Indianapolis, Synodical Secretary of Home Missions, addressed the society on "Relations of Synodical work to the Presbyterial."

Tlw Dog J'oisoner Again.

Several valuable dogs were poisoned about the city last weelc. Among others was the dog "Dan," the well known white setter belonging to D. L. Lee. "Dan" was found this morning on west Wabash avenue and was brought home in a dying condition. He expired within an hour much to the regret of the family. Steps should be taken at once to ferret out the perpetrator of these poisoning outrages.

Next Sunday.

Rev. J. V. Updyke will positively be here next Sunday and begin his revival meetings at the Christian church. Mr. I'pdyke is a most successful evangelist and a great success will doubtless attend his efforts.

in tlx- Odd 1-Vllows' llnll.

A very untoward accident occurred last Friday during- the. work in the Odd fellows' hall. Zaehariah Keniier, living- seven miles west, of town, hail the misfortune to break his leg. The accident occurred about 0 o'clock and Dr. Knsininger. being-summoned, found that Mr. Bonner was suffering from a. fractured hip bone. He was taken to his home in a cab and is now under the care of the fraternity. Said a prominent Odd Fellow this morning: "Mr. Henner was not a candidate although the accident aceurred during the work. He started across the floor and stumbled, the wrench snapping the bone. You see, he had been kicked there by a horse some time ago and this probably cracked the bone so that it was easily broken by the wrench it had when he stumbled. It was an accident he might have sustained in walking along the street so far as that is concerned.''

A "Still'" Came.

"The ghastliest game of poker in which I ever sat." remarked a well known physician, "was played on a corpse at a medical college a few years ago. A lot of. students were loitering about the dissecting room one evening about an hour before it was time to begin work. Every table was occupied by a corpse, and when one man brought out a deck of cards and some chips and proposed a little game of draw there was no place to play. A bright idea struck an Ohio student. There was a big, broadcliested negro subject on one of the tables, and his plan was to play on the corpse. Everybody assented just for the novelty of the thing, and I kept my stack in the hand of the deceased. It proved to be better than a rabbit's foot, for I played in wonderful luck. All I had to do in a jack-pot was to shake the chip hand and draw four cards to make three of a kind or a straight. No, I never dreamed about it. The only thing that worried me was that the crowd did not have more money."

One of His Experiences.

For thirty-eight years ('apt. Loud followed the sea, most of that time as master ol' JL vessel, and upon retiring from (lie water was appointed by the Secretary of the United States Treasury (o superintend the seal fisheries in Alaska, which position lie held live years, lie relates one experience as follows: "For several years I had been troubled with general nervousness and pain in the region of my heart. My greatest. ailiiction was sleeplessness It was almost impassible at any 1 line to obtain rest and sleep. Having seen Dr. Miles' remedies advertised I began using Nervine. After taking asrnall quantity the benefit received was so great, that I was positively alarmed, thinking the remedy contained opiates which would iinally be injurious to me: but. on being assured by the druggist that It was perfectly harmless, 1 continued it, together with the Heart Cure. Today I can conscientiously say that. Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine and Now Heart. Cure did more forme than anything I had ever taken. 1 had been treated by eminent physicians in New York and San I'nuicisco without benefit. I owe my present good health to the judicious use of these most valuable remedies, and heartily recommend them to allatllicted as I was."—Capt. A. 1\ Loud, Hampden, Me.
