A NARROW ESCAPE!

How it Happened.

The following remarkable event in a lady's life will interest the reader: "ForalonR time I had a terrible pain at my heart, which fluttered almost incessantly. Iliad no appetite and could not sleep. I would bo compelled to sit up in bed ana belch gas from my stomach until I thought every minute would be my last. There was a feeling of oppression about my heart, and I was afraid to draw a full breath. couldn't sweep a room without sitting down and resting but, thank God, by the help of New Heart Cure all that is past and I feel like another woman. Before using the New Heart Cure I had taken different so-called remedies and been treated by doctors without any benefit until I was both discouraged and disgusted. My husband bought me a bottle of Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure, and am happy to say I never regretted it, as 1 now have a splendid appetito and sleep well. I weighed 125 pounds when I began taking the remedy, and now I weigh 130!4. Its effect in my case lias been truly marvelous. It far surpasses any other medicine I have ever taken or any benefit I ever received from physicians."—Mrs. Harry Starr, Pottsville, Pa., October 12,1892.

Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure is sold on a post tive guarantee by all druggists, or by the Dr. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind., on receipt of price, per bottle, six bottles 85, express prepaid.

THE PRIZE CLIP.

McClure & Graham Sell tlio ltiggest Wool Clip in Indiana l.ast Friday.

S. IT. Marcus, of Baltimore, Md., was in the city last Friday and purchased of McClure «fe Graham the wool# they bought at this market this season. Mr. Marcus bought the entire clip of over 125,000 pounds or twelve carloads. The clip is by all odds the largest handled by any firm of dealers in the State and is in the nicest possible condition. McClure & Graham paid a higher price for wool this year than any other firm buying, paying fifteen cents for all good wool. They sold at a slight advance, and while making but small profit feel more than repaid for their trouble in the great advertisement given their business.

THE NEW G. A. R. BADGE.

Precautions Against Fraudulent Insignia and Other Common Abuses.

A new regulation of the Grand Army has just been announced that will meet with the hearty approval of all members of the G. A. R. It relates to the buttoniers and is intended to correct abuses and make the badges uniform throughout the country. For many years the au thorites of the Grand Army have been annoyed by fakirs who have manufactured bogus badges, buttons and other insignia of the order. Originally the badges were not copyrighted, and this enabled the fakirs to make them, and some of them sold their wares to the country posts and others not familar with rules and regulations. The abuse became so flagrant that a change became necessary and the council of administration made a change by placing a knapsack, campkettle and fire on the revesre side, and patented the design, in order that no comrade may be deceived. Every regular badge is numbered and registered. There is a severe penalty for wearing a G. A. R. badge or button by a person who is not a member of the order. This applies to members who have been dropped from the rolls or dismissed.

These badges and buttons are now being manufactured under the direction of the quartermaster-general and all posts must order them through their department quartermaster-

The old ones will be called in, and when a comrade is seen wearing one he will be cautioned to remove it and procurejthe new one, and non-mem-bers wearing either will be prosecuted.

l'roliably Fatal Accident.

Saturday while working on abridge between Wayne town ^and Hillsboro. Harry Creighton, of the latter place, met with a probably fatal accident, lie was digging with a pick in an excavation when a large chunk of dirt dropped from above striking him on the head and shoulders and driving him to the ground. His face was driven against the sharp end of the pick which penetrated liis right eye and coming out of his lip. The sight of the eye was destroyed and a terrible wound inflicted on his face, liis leg was also broken in two places and the chances for his recovery are poor.

Happily Married.

At the close of the services Sunday evening at the Baptist church Rev. G. P. Fuson performed the ceremony which made John Potts and Miss Eva Dagley one for life. The attendants were Miss Eva Aber, of Indianapolis, and Mr. Bert Stewart, of this city. Both the bride and groom are popular and deservedly so among a wide circle of friends and all wish them a prosperous journey through life.

IT is important to keep the liver and kidneys in good condition. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the remedy for invigorating these organs.

Here are two notable cases, one from the Pacific and the other from the Atlantic coast.

The Brooklyn woman is Mrs. Lillie Meyer. Five years ago she began to feel sharp pains in her abdomen, with the bearing-down feeling and pains in her back. She tried doctors and got no relief. A friend told her of Mrs. Pinkham's Compound, and after using it the pain left her, and menstruation now comes without suffering.

The Riverside, Cal., woman is Mrs. J. E. Dewey, who says, I have used three bottles of your Vegetable Compound for painful menstruations. "Every month my suffering was terrible, and I was obliged to go to bed. "After using the first bottle, my general health was much improved, and now, after using three bottles, all pain has left me, and I am a well woman. Lydia E. Pinkham's Yegetable Compound is as unfailing as tho sua." Get it from your druggist.

THE OLD TOWN CEMETERY.

The I'.ones of Many Karly Kesidents Heing lirouglit to l.iglit After Years of IVaeeful iicst.

Last Friday afternoon a representative of Tun JoniNAi, strolled out to the old town cemetery and noticed the work of the resurrection and re-inter-ment of the remains of many of Crawfordsville's oldest citizens. The north sixty feet of the cemetery from east to west is to be vacated and utilized as a road and the work of re-interment has been in progress now for several days. Each body (only a few bones remain of most) when resurrected is placed in a small unplaned and unpainted oak box of about 1x2 feet and re-interred in apart of the cemetery not vacated, unless, perchance, some relative of the dead person remains who manifests enough interest to have the bones carried to some other and more reputable burying ground.

Large numbers of Deople visit the scene of the work daily and display the curiosity and inquisitiveness incident to lovers of such uncanny work. There are several workmen employed under the contractor, .Jere Carver, and J. II. Cook superintends the work and keeps the books. The cemetery has not been used for a burying ground for a number of years and is rankly overgrown with brush and trees. The roots of these have in many instances penetrated to the coffins of the dead and gathered nourishment. In a num ber of cases the bones were found encased in a net-work of roots. In near ly every instance the coffins have disappeared, leaving only a little wood rot to show that they had ever been employed. The few yellow remaining bones of the deceased are picked carefully up, however, and deposited in the boxes prepared for them. The portion of the cemetery vacated is the most densely populated of the little city of the dead and Friday afternoon sixty-two bodies had been taken up, with as many more remaining.

Friday afternoon the bodies of John Conners and his little grandson, Dennis Ward, Jr., were taken from adjacent graves after asleep of twenty years. Only a few bones remained but, strangely enough, the little boy's skull was perfect and covered with hair in which the parting was still clear. The bones of both were placed in one box and taken away by Dennis Ward, Sr.

The bodies of Micaiah Reeder, 1779-1849, and his daughter, Mrs. Wm. L. John, rest under a large monument and have not yet been molested. Mr. Reeder died here while on a visit to the Burbridge family and was buried far from his home. His epitaph reads: '.'Touch the Love Harp for Him

Thus far from Home,

Sweet Home where Love still fondly clings."

A peculiar case came to light in the grave of an unknown girl a few feet west of the Reeder monument. The skeleton was found face downward and twisted horribly as though the buried one had come to life again after interment and died struggling miserable1. The bones of the feet were en cased in high heeled shoes still in a good state of preservation.

The skeleton of Mary Corder was found with a great wealth of flowing hair, probably grown after burial.

The skeleton of Isabelle May was in an excellent state of preservation. The body of Nancy Smith, which had been buried for thirty-four years, was found in excellent condition, the clothing still being preserved and even the hair pins in the queerlv dressed hair.

The bodies of Mrs. Margeret Misner and two daughters were removed from adjacent graves.

The bodies of John O'Conner and his children. Mickey and Maggie, were removed to the Catholic cemetery.

Friday afternoon the white coffin of an unknown child was dug up. The coffin'was in splendid condition and was re-intered in another part of the cemetery without being opened.

The body •of the burglar Mont Fisher shot in liis store at Whitesville six years ago was the worst case han died, The coffin and body broke in several {'pieces while being removed and were hard to handle.

The bodies of John. Tessie and Lizzie Costello were removed to the Catho lie cemetery.

A skeleton was taken out upon the marble footstone of whose grave were the letters G. G. S. There was a large headstone, too, but it was of soft sandstone and time and weather had effaced the inscription entirely.

The skeleton of Archibal dMartin-was removed after being buried thirty-nine years and was in good eonditon. Mr. Martin was 88 years old at the time of his death.

The bodies of W. If. H. Martin, I. C. Martin and James F. Martin were also taken from adjacent graves.

The body of Charley Branch, who died when two

3 rears

old, was taken up

after an interment of 24 years. Only the skull remained of the bones, but the shoes with buckles and Oxford ties were still excellently preserved.

The body of an unknown man was removed from the grave next to that of W. H. II. Martin. Ilis clothes were still in fine condition and easily showed their cut and color.

The body of Rosa Wilson, colored, with the body of her infant child in her arms was removed. Her hair was still preserved entirely.

The workers have found no jewelry or valuables as they worked although occasionally buttons, hairpins, etc., were picked up.

HE PREACHER AND HIS WEATHER.

What tln» More or Less Urliable Parson Has in Store For i:« Next Month.

Weather prophet Iliqks forks over our July programme as follows: July will come in with rising temperature and falling barometer in all western parts of the country. The reactionary storm centers are on the 2d and 3d, with new moon on 2d. Thunder. wind and hail will result in many parts as a sequel to high temperature, violent electric tension and low barometer. The storm culminations may be expected in western and central parts on the 2d to 3d, and a cold dash of polar air will be felt immediately behind the storms, all of uwhich will reach the eastern coast regions on and touching the 4tli. The next storm period is from the (5th to 10th, during which one of the warmestwaves of the season will be realized. All will not feel its climax at the same time, but in regular progression it will move eastward, touching with its scorching wings all the laud. Many violent electrical storms, with rain, hail and wind will occur about the 8, 9 and 10. A very sudden change to much cooler is almost certain to press close ly on the rear of the area of great heat and storms. The cool wave will in turn give place to warm, with much bluster and storminess, about the 13th and 14th. Surprising changes of temperature will be a feature of all the storm periods in July, but heat will be the prevailing temperature. Sud den changes to cool, quickly reacting into very warm. From the 18th to 22 falls the next regular storm per iod. The full moon on the 17th will most likely precipitate heat and storms very early in the period. The 25tli and 20th will bring the reactionary rise in temperature, 'bursting into bluster and storm, and bringing a cooler breath from the northwest

The month closes with a storm period well on in western sections which will run its course to the east in the first days of August. Upon the whole, a stormy July—some heavy rains and "cloudbursts," ]jut a general shortness of moisture.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL IN DANGER

Scenes of the Civil War Being Now. Issued In Weekly Parts.

Terror reigned over all Eastern Virginia. Unionists were compelled to to fly for their lives before the instruments of the civil and military powers at 0 Richmond, for the "Confederate Governmant" was then seated there. By these means the enemies were enabled to report a majority of over a hundred thousand votes of Virginians in favor of secessslon, the vote being given by the voice and not by secret ballot.

Prodigious efforts were being made for the seizure of the National Capital. On his journey to Richmond, Alexander II. Stevens had harangued the people at various points, and everywhere raised the cry, "On to Washington!'' That cry was already resounding through the slave-labor States. Troops were marshalling for the service in Virginia and already Carolina soldiers treading its soil. The Southern press, everywhere, urged the measure with the greatest vehemence. On the day when Stevens arrived in Richmond, one of the newspapers of the city said: "There was never half the unanimity among the people before, nor a tithe of the zeal upon any subject, that is now manifested to take Washington and drive from out every black Republican who is there. From the mountain tops to the shores of the sea, there is one wild shout of fierce resolve to capture Washington City at all and every human hazard." Yet in the face of the universal chorus, "On to Washington!" Mr. Jefterson Davis, president of the Southern Confederacy, speaking more to Europe than to his people, said to his Congress at Montgomery: ••We solemnly profess in the face of mankind, that we desire peace at any sacrifice save that of honor. In independence we seek no conquest, no aggrandizement, 110 cession of any kind from the States with which we havelately confederated. All we ask is to be let alone—those who never held power over us, should not now attempt to subjugate us by arms." A quaint writer of the day thus commented on the assertion of Mr. Davis, "All we ask is to be let alone":• "As vonce I valked by a dismal swamp,

There sot an old cove in the dam and Mi damp. And at everybody as passed that road

A stick or a stone that old man throw'd: And venever bo Hung his stick or his stone He'd sot up a song of 'Let me alone.' 'Let me alone, for I loves to shy These bits of things at the passers by Let me alone for I've not your tin, And lots of other traps snuggly In Let me alone—I'm riggiu' a boat To grab vhatever you've got ailoat In a woekor so I expects to come And turn you outof your'ouse and 'orne. I'm a quiet old cove/says ho with a groan, "All I axes is, let me alone.'

So secretly had the Confederates prepared for the seizure of the National Capital, that the sudden development of their strength was amazing. The Government was made painfully aware that its call for troops had not been made an hour too soon. There was a general impression that Washington City was to be the first point of serious attack, and toward it vast numbers of armed men eagerly pressed to the protection of the president, his

Anticipating the interest which the public now feels upon this subjects, Frank Leslie's Scenes and Portraits of the Civil War has been prepared and is just now being issued in weekly parts.
