CHICKAMAUGA COMMISSION.

It Desires the Co-Operation of Soldiers 5 Throughout the State.

The Chickamauga commission has issued the following address: "The commissioners appointed under the act of the legislature of Indiana for locating the positions of Indiana regiments and batteries at Chickamauga, desire the co-operation of the soldiers of Indiana who participated in that battle. Owing to the fact that it is impossible to correspond with a very large number of the survivors of the regiments and batteries who have an interest in having their organizations properly located, and a monument that shall be satisfactory to each regiment or battery erected on that memorable field, the commissioners seek, through the public press of the state, to reach all. "The law as passed by the recent legislature, appropriates 31,000 to each regiment and §500 to each battery that participated in the battle of Chickamauga. The law also provides that the foregoing sum may be supplemented by contributions from any of the regiments or batteries that may desire .to do so. "While the law provides that tiie contracts for the monuments and the erection of the same must be made by the board of commissioners and approved by the governor of the state, it also provides that 'wherever practicable, the representatives of the different regiments and batteries may be consulted as to their wishes in regard to the designs and sites of the monument to the organizations to which they respectively belonged, and their wishes shall control where no delay is occasioned thereby.' "The Chickamauga national park is to be dedicated on the 19th and 20th of September of this year by appropriate ceremonies. Many of the states have been more fortunate than we in Indiana in that they secured their appropriation more than a year ago, and in consequence thereof, have the work of erecting their monuments well under way—and will have all of their monuments in place by the time of the dedication this fall. Indiana should have many, if not all of her monuments in place by September. This can be done if the survivors of Indiana regiments and batteries, who were at Chickamauga, will join with and assist the commissioners in the work. To this end we ask you to take measures at once to call your comrades together and decide upon a design for your monument. Do not wait on some special officer to call a meeting, yet if you have a regimental organization write your president to call a meeting at once. The commissioners will start to Chickamauga on May G, arriving there on the morning of May 7, to locate the positions which have not yet been definitely settled, and upon their return will be ready to receive the reports of the different regiments and batteries as to their wishes. Th? commissioners ask that each organization should select and send at least one of their number to meet this board on May 21 at Indianapolis. The meeting will be held at the office of the secretary, room 54, Journal building, and if the reports should show a larger attendance than can there be accommodated, you will be notified of the place selected by calling that morning at the office of the secretary, as herein indicated. If the board of commissioners does not hear from your organization by the 21st day of May, 1895. it will be considered that you desire the board of commissioners to locate the position for your monument, and also that it shall procure and erect the monument. At least you should write the commission as to your wishes. "The following are the rules fixed in regard to the monuments: (1) They must be made of granite (2) the location of the monument must be determined by the commissioners in charge of the Chickamauga national park, though each organization has the right to express its preference, and the wish of the organization will be granted if possible (3) all designs for monuments must be first submitted to the commissioners of Indiana and if approved by them and the governor, the designs will be forwarded to the war department for final approval (4) the final contracts for the monuments must be made by the commissioners, but your wishes in regard to designs, the party whom you may desire to have build them, will be respected wherever practicable. "Again, prompt action is required. Address all communications to the secretary, Indianapolis. •'JAMES R. CARNAHAN, "Secretary Chickamauga^Commission."

TO THE 80TH REGIMENT SURVIVORS.

The surviving members of the 8Gth regiment are requested to meet at the

office of (Jen. J. R. Carnahan, in Indianapolis, on Wednesday, May 15, to talk over and settle upon the place where the monument for their regiment shall be erected at Chickamauga, and to determine as to the plan or design of the monument. As many as can should attend this important meeting.

The lilock System.

Rockville Republican: The Vandalia is preparing to introduce the "block system" on the Logansport division and looking forward to that the employes have for some weeks past been studying the rules necessary to the proper understanding of the plan. They are now taking examination on their studies and the Rockville force has been in Logansport during the past week for that purpose. Under this system the road is divided into sections or "blocks," say, one extending from Terre Haute to Rosedale another from Rosedale to Rockville a third from Rockville to Waveland, etc. But one train each way, possibly but one train, will be admitted inside a block at a time, and no other train will be allowed to enter the block until it is clear. This system reduced the possibility of collisions to the minimum. The wonder is that it has not long ago been introduced on all railroads.

Death of M. J. Miller.

Morris J. Miller died Wednesday at Indianapolis where he was receiving medical treatment. He was born May 13, 1867, and lived near Linden. The funeral occurred from the residence of his father, David Miller, north of this city, to-day at 11 o'clock. Interment at Oak Hill cemetery.

THE "ALADDIN OVEN.

Mr. Edward Atkinson Gives a Practical Demonstration of Its Merits.

The Washington correspondent of the New York Tribune gives the following account of the Aladdin oven in which all housekeepers will be greatly interested. After reading the latter every lady in Crawfordsville will desire to be the possessor of an Aladdin:

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Hamlin gave a dinner on Sunday evening that was unique as Washington dinners go. The cook entertained calleis during the process of preparing the dinner, attended to other matters of business in different parts of the city, rested over night, had leisure for lOiister services, arranged the dishes of the menu at intervals, then served the dinner and joined the dinner party. Among the invited guests were Secretary and Mrs. Gresham, Secretary and Mrs. Carlisle, Secretary and Miss Morton, ex-Postmaster General and Mrs. Bissell, and the Japanese minister, Mr. Kurino. The cook was Edward Atkinson, of Boston. The occasion of the dinner party was a practical demonstration of the working of the famous Aladdin oven, preDaratory to its being turned over to the charge of Secretary Morton for universal introduction and use. Mr. Atkinson is in Washington to explain the process of making the Aladdin ovens and give to the Department of Agriculture the right of the free use of the patents for introduction in the agricultural colleges throughout the

United States. "I am anxious now to devote myself to other lines of work," said Professor Atkinson. "This has been crowded upon me because of the great need that it be done. Too many lives have been sacrificed at the altar of the cook stove, too many families have been de stroved in the terror of the 'Biddy reign,' not to count this a national evil calling for remedy. I have given twenty years of hard labor and careful thought to experiments on nutrition and economy of foods and in developing tliis oven on an economical, simple basis. I have perfected an oven '111 which meals can be prepared for 000 at a cost of 25 cents for fuel. The toughest meat can be made tender and juicy the parts of the food which are most often wasted can be utilized in wholesome dishes—giving- the maximum of nutrition for the minimum of expense, and a course dinner can be cooked without having to serve in the first course a roasted cook. I had the ovens patented for protection from imitation and to cover the cost of making the invention. They are now in use in many places and have paid their way, and I wish to put the matter entirely out of my hands. I gave a seven-course dinner to my Whist club and friends, including oranges and coffee, which cost 13 cents each for food material. Each cigar consumed after dinner cost more than dinner.

The ovens are simple in arrangement and can be made of different materials. T. Booker Washington, of Tuscogee, Ala., makes the ovens for his largo school of planks plastered with mortar, and is carrying on cooking on a large scale. He is going to have one on exhibition at the Atlanta Exhibition, and conduct a restaurant on our plan. There will be profit in it for him, too. I lately gave a dinner of four courses soup, fish, meat and vegetables, and mush with molasses for desert—to nine of the poorer students at Harvard, who want to economize. There were three others. Each had a pound and a half of strong food, and the cost for the twelve was Gl cents. We have established the new England kitchens on a paying basis. One of our ladies is making money on five-cent dinners. Mrs. Ellen Richards has been my right hand helper in this work.

Baccalaureate Sermon.

The first annual baccalaureate sermon before the Waveland High School was delivered last Sunday night by Rev. T. J. Shuey, pastor of the Christian churck at that place. To appropriate music and headed by the pastor the school board, faculty and senior class entered and were seated well in front. Mr. Shuey had selected for his subject, "Preparation and Possibilities." This he handled in a masterly way, preaching a most excellent sermon. Music was furnished bj' a selected choir, under the leadership of Miss Pauline Russell. Prof. Walter Dunn is the superintendent of the schools there.

V. I*. II. Local Convention.

About the middle of May a convention of the Baptist Young People's Union in all the surrounding towns, will hold a convention in this city and perfect arrangements about attending the national convention in Baltimore. Rev. A. B. Chaffee, of South Bend, will be in attendance. The official route to Baltimore is over the Big Four and & .0., going via Washington and returning by Old Point Comfort.

Climbed the Court House Steeple.

The llag was hoisted on the court house a week ago yesterday on account of the Odd Fellows' Canton celebration, and could not be lowered on account of it becoming wrapped around the Hag staff. Yesterday Wm. Doyle ascended the dizzy height and secured the flag, and descended in safety. There are not many persons in the city who would undertake the job, and fewer who could do it even if they made an attempt.

PART FIRST

AS IMPORTANT DEAL.

The Indiana & Olilo Llvo Stock Tnsurance Company Kuys tlio Uusiness of the Farmers and llreederH' Llvo

Stock Company of Indianapolis.

A. F. Ramsey, President of the Indiana and Ohio Live stock Insurance Company, returned from Indianapolis yesterday where he has been for the last two days closing up the negotiations whereby his company comes into possession of the rights, properties, franchises and good will of the Farmers and Breeders' Live Stock Insurance Company of Indianapolis. Governor Matthews has been the President of this company and the Board of Managers was composed of some of the leading stock men and capitalists of Indiana. Since its 'incorporation it has done a handsome business and its clientage may be found in every county of the State. The deal which puts the Indiana and Ohio in possession of this business is an important one for Crawfordsville and will place this company in the lead of all live stock insurance companies in the Jnited States. Each of these companies was capitalized at $100,000. The entire business of the Farmers and Breeders will be moved to Crawfordsville and will be consolidated with the Indiana and Ohio. Tho latter company will at once reinsure all the outstanding business of the former company. This leaves but one live stock insurance company doing business in this State, and the promptness with which the

Indiana and Ohio has adjusted and paid its losses during the ten years of its existence is a guarantee of itsf-uture usefulness to every owner of live stock in the two States in which it is authorized to do business,

The Eastern Star.

Indianapolis Sentinel: The annual meeting of the grand commaudery of the order of the Eastern Star, the woman's branch of masonry, met in Masonic Temple yesterday afternoon with Associate Patron A. W. Hempleman, of Richmond, presiding. Since the last meeting Grand Patron J. A. Manning, of Michigan City, has died and the office will be filled to-day when the general officers for the ensuing year are elected.

There are about three hundf,J delegates present and the afternoon was consumed in the reading ^f the reports of the grand officers. There are 142 chapters in the State and the membership is now 7,000. The business of the session will be concluded to-day.

The Minutes Approved.

The meeting of the directors of the Indiana Central Railway, held at LaLayette last week, was presided over by A. F. Ramsey as temporary president. The secretary was James H. Parish, who kept the proceedings in short-hand. Mr. Parish transcribed the minutes into a record for permanency. Yesterday Mr. Ramsey received the book for his signature and approved of the minutes. After carefully reading them he appended his signature and expressed the book to the permanent president of the company who is now at Marion at preliminary work on the road. Mr. Ramsey states that the secretary writes most encouragingly of the prospects.

Montgomery-VanCleave.

Will Montgomery, of Mattoon, 111., and Miss Laura VanCleave were happily married Wednesday at 8 o'clock at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. VanCleave. The bride's grandfather, Elder VanCleave, performed the ceremony in his usual happy manner. The happy young couple will reside in Mattoon, the groom being a conductor on the Big Four a popular and rising young man. 'I he bride is a very estimable young lady and much beloved by her large circle of friends.

A Family I'oisoned.

Milton Henderson, wife and two boys, of Waynetown, after eating a hearty dinner at one of the Crawfordsville restaurants Wednesday, were alltaken violently sick at the stomach, cramping, vomiting and purging almost continuously up to a late hour in the night. With the exception of the youngest boy, who is yet quite sick, the family is thought to be out of danger. The question now comes up, what did it? And the mystery should be solved at once.

Death of Mrs. George Kunyau.

Mrs. Ueorge Runyan died yesterday at Waynetown of general prostration. She was about 40 years old and was the mother of seven children, all boys, one of whom is dead, the oldest 22, the youngest an infant. Mrs. Runyan was one of the best of women, whose life was entirely devoted to her children. She was a consistent memof the Baptist church.
