JIM DENNIS.

The Old McMnllen Murder Kecallecl the Domestic Infelicity of the Dennis Family.

Jim Dennis, the man who was sentenced with John W. Coffey to hang in our jail yard for the murder of the McMullens, and who escaped the noose on a legal technicality, has again come to the front. When the rope was taken from the neck of Dennis and he was allowed to go scot free, he naturally left the

His daughter grew up a very bright and pretty girl and a great favorite at school. But things did not go well with Dennis. He seemed to droop and suffer ill health. He become sullen and morose and finally so disagreeable that his wife found it impossible to live with him longer. She and her daughter have accordingly started for this county to again take up their residence. Dennis is left by himself in Kentucky, a victim to ill health and gloomy thoughts.

A GREAT GAME.

The V. M. C. A. Team Wins the Greatest Contest of the Season at Ladoga.

he pug dog of Editor J.F. Warfel

three times under the office window on Friday afternoon at Ladoga and then every­

body knew that something awful was going to happen. Some surmised that Linkenlioker was coming back and others guessed that Rev. Fox had lost the manuscript of his Sunday sermon, but no one could believe that the Ladoga ball team was going to get sniped by the Crawfordsville Y. M. O. A. boj's. But it was in the air and when anything gets in the Ladoga air it is a sure thing. There was a buzzard got in the air there last fall before the election and even that was sure.

When the game was called the grand stand was full and so was— but we are here to discuss the game. In the first inning timely swats by Fry and Webster netted two runs for Crawfordsville and things looked as rosy as the sunset in a chromo but when the fourth inning drew to a close Ladoga had succeeded in zigzagging twice around the bases and two big husky footprints on the home plate gave evidence that the score was tied. The

delirious delighted shrieks of the local rooters gave evidence to the same effect and Warfel's dog was chased oft' the field with a can on his tail. In the excited glory of the moment George Harney swallowed peanuts with their shells on while Jim Knox tried to ram his hat in his vest, pocket and threw his gold watch high in the air with aloud hurrah. But the run making was over for a season. Many and many a time did the husky swatters of both teams baste the ball with fury and hate and tear off for first like runaway freight cars loaded with pig iron on a down grade, only to hear the agonizing "chug" of the ball as it struck the scoop nets of the baseman ten feet ahead of them. It was a pitcher's game and base hits were as rare as happy Democrats. The infielders were fed on pops and easy grounders until their paunches bulged out iike the game bag of a Ripley township rabbit hunter, and the way the monkeys fanned out gave their friends palpitation of the breast. Whittington appeared in exceptionally fine form, and there were

A HIGH ONE. when only three men each inning faced him. In the eighth inning he tossed only three balls to retire the side. The first batter struck an easy pop-up to Myers, the second knocked a grounder to Hedrick and the third a bouncer to Whittington. It was as easy as eating on another fellow's meal ticket. The crowd went wild when the score 6tood 2 to 2 at the close of the ninth inning and fairly had a duck-tit when the sun set on the tenth with "affairs in statu quo," as barrister Bachelor shouted to some friends on the outside of the fence whose financial shyness had prevented their occupying conspicuous places on the ground. By Crawfordsville's errors

and two hits Ladoga scored in the eleventh and the Crawfordsville club looked as sad and gloomy as the gentlemanly boarder who has just found the dish rag in the bottom of his soup bowl. But doom was averted and the corpse, crawling from the coffin, clipped the merry undertaker a jolt between the eyes. Ladoga stacked up a few errors and Crawfordsville hit the ball, netting two runs and winning the game. It was the sweetest little game played in this favored section of the blooming old world since—well, since the last time wc won. Wallace Foster, as umpire, was the personification of fairness and the treatment extended by Ladoga had hospitality blown in the bottle. The following is the score:

•'Where the Course of Jbimpire Halts." Will H. Thompson, formerly of this cicy but now of Seattle, does not write poetry very often but when he does court the muses his productions are of the very highest type. His "High Tide at Gettysburg" is ranked among the classics and will live as long as the English language is spoken. The latest from his pen is "Where the Course of Empire Halts,'' and was read at a Fourth of July celebration at Seattle and evoked the greatest applause. The poem is as follows:

Oh sentry on the Tower of Years, Look down the misty future time. And tell us what rich fruit appears

In promise for our favored clime! Keacli forth thy wand and roll away The clouds that hide from alien eyes The marvels of that golden day

That waits our earthly paradise.

Look eastward from the mountain chain! Lo, the iiold glory at our feet! Across the wide Columbian plain

A shoreless, billowy sea of wheat! And orchards heavy witli perfume Of ripening fruit, and every vine Standing blood-stained, from foot to plume,

In wasting' veins of precious wine!

And where of old the shepherd-calls Gathered the Hocks from fold to fold. The great mills jar the mountain walls

Stamping the granite from the groltl! Or from the deep mine's endless night A gleaming stream of silver spills From where the imprisoned dynamite

Moans at his toil within the hills.

Turn westward! Better than perfume Comes the faint odor of the brine! And through the monstrous forest's gloom

The domes and spires of cities shine! And yonder labor's temples stand, Ana mills increase, and factories swarm, Where genius with his cunning hand

Has chained Snoqualmie's falling storm!

No whirling winds of ruin go Koaring and crashing through the firs Amid the silent peaks of snow

No lightning glares, no thunder st irs, Lonely and white the mountains st and, Like solemn sentinels who guard The frontiers of enchanted land

In silent everlasting ward!

Oh, cold, blue lake! through riven hills, Give thy sweet bosom to the sea, While to thy touch the ocean thrills,

And sends his great ships up to tliee! The only stain upon thy sky The smoke of factories o'er thee curled, While on thy placid waters lie

The warships of the Western world.

Through mountains torn in eons sione, A mighty arm of sheltered sea Hal boa's ocean reaches down

To lead us up to destiny. And ocean's snowy cara vans, From shores of Asia hither rolled. Heat at the barriers and the bans

That bar lis from the Fleece of Gold!

Oh. ruler of the coining years, Will you be blind or will you see? Will you be ileal', or one who hears

The mighty voice of History? Tear down the bars across our door. And let. the winds their triumph win, And seaward roll an answering roai'

Of welcome as lie Meets come in!

Oh, make our mighty inland sea. With navies tilled and Mags unfurled, Unvexed by tolls—forever free.

The haven of the flouting world! No more a waste some lone ship braves, O'er paths uncharted, blurred and blind No more a wild of wandering waves.

The pampas of he roaring wind!

Then here, with all her marches past, In the best bulwark of the free. The course of empire halts at last

In glory by the sunset sea: Applauded by the ocean's boom, The banner of her welcome home— The wind-swept ice, a silver plume,

AHaunt on ltainier's snowy dome!

And here shall freedom gather power, And roll her voice across the deep, Till in this gloomy midnight hour

The exile startles from his sleep: And wretched men in alien lands, Deep in Siberian prisons cold, With kindling hearts and lifted hands

Shall cry, as Parker cried of old:

"Oh choral lips of love and song. The world's harmonic multitude That through the ages dim and long

Have prophesied the coming good! Philosopher and saint and seer Of every age and race and clime, Behold, the promised days are near,

Auroral on the hills of time!"
