Single Harness Hereafter,

It isn't all on account of Eliza this time but all on account of John. Eliza Munson has entered suit for divorce against John Munson and the complaint, if true, proves John to be just what he should not be in more particulars than one.

Mrs. Urookgliire's Condition. Ladoga Leader: Mrs. E. Y. Brookshire returned from Battle Creek, Mich., with her father last Saturday, and is visiting her parents and friends here. She has not fully recovered her strength yet, but is feeling well and taking no treatment. Her many friends here are glad to know that she is with them once more.

Dr. John for Trinity Churcli. The Chicago Inter-Ocean states that the two men under consideration for the pulpit of Trinity M. E. church at Chicago, are ex-President John, of Greencastle, and Dr. Sims, of Indianapolis, both well known here. The church is the most wealthy and influential of the Methodist churches in Chicago, maintaining two pastors, one of whom has charge of a mission located in a $10,000 building on Wentworth avenue. Dr. John would easily take rank among the first preachers of Chicago. The Methodist church in Indiana has had no pulpit orator of equal ability since Bishop Simpson was president of Indiana Asbury University, fifty years ago.

Death of an Infant.

Howard V., the son of Ben Crowedied Saturday night and was buried Sunday. Dr. U. A. Tucker officiated.

"Over There."

Lafayette Journal: During W. Fred Pettit's career as a minister he was at one time holding revival meetings in a certain neighborhood where there was one sinner whom he was particularly anxious to convert. Seeking a favorable opportunity he had a private interview with the man in which he urged him to prepare to meet him "over there." His earnestness and eloquence so impressed the man that that very evening, contrary to his usual habit, lie went to church. Mr. P., seeing him in the congregation, was much encouraged, and calling liim by name from the pulpit asked him to come forward and start that night on the good way that should end in a happy meeting "over there."

The man arose to his feet, but instead of going to the altar walked from the room, when it is said, there came an expression to the face of the preacher that must have caused a shiver to run through the quills of the angels.

A short time after this the sinner did something thoughtlesss and was sent to the penitentiary, whither Mr. Pettit soon followed him for the murder of his wife. One day the two men met, and the farmer grasping the prcacl hand, said: "Welcome, Brother Pettit, we are 'over there' at last."

Old Settlers Iteunion.

To' the Editor of The .lounial. The reunion of the old settlers of Putnam, Parke and Montgomery counties held at Sutherlin's Springs, Aug. 15, 1895, was a pronounced success. The day was fine and vast crowds of people assembled on the pictureque banks of Big Raccoon to drink the medicinal waters of the two famous springs of different water that bubble and sparkle from the solid rock. They came for a day of recreation and innocent enjoyment. Many of the brave old pioneers of both sexes were present and were given seats of honor. The granu stand was decorated with wreaths of evergreen and adorned with the Stars and Stripes. Sweet music was discoursed between the efforts of the orators of the day. The orations were of all varieties from grave to humorous. The crowd was quiet and orderly and the slick citizen with his games of chance and traps for the unwary was conspicuous by his absence. Officers elected for the ensuing year were as follows: President, J. V. Durham vice president, G. W. Hbnna secretary, A. J. Farrow treasurer, J. T. Clodfelter. The officers will meet at Morton, Ind., the first Thursday in April, 1896, to arrange a programme for the nextreunion.

Alf Bailey's Wife.

The wife of Alf Bailey, iate of this city, attempted to shuttle off at GrandRapids a few days ago. She and her husband were here a few weeks ago visiting relatives and it is likely that she felt so tough when she had to leave this town that she just couldn't stand it. The Grand Rapids Press says:

Mrs. Flora Bailey might now be in a better and possibly a brighter world if she had a little more idea of the nature of morphine. Thursday evening Mrs. Bailey, who is the wife of Alf Bailey, a barber living on west Fulton street, took a ride out to the lake to enjoy the evening air and incidentally to find out where her husband was "at." She says she discovered his whereabouts—„ also that there was another woman near him to whom he was feeding large quantities of beer. With her worst suspicions confirmed, Mrs. Bailey hied herself to a drug store, bought fifteen grains of morphine and laid down to die. She had not had large experience with the drug and was surprise4 to find that instead of going to sleep, she felt jolly, and started out to tell the neighbors her new discovery. In consequence of this she was bundled off to Butter worth hospital in short order and two doctors worked over her for several hours, finally succeeding in bringing her back to a healthy condition. This morning she left the hospital fully recovered and not likely to attempt the same foolishness again.

The Teachers' Institute.

The Montgomery County Teachers' Institute will be in session at the court house in Crawfordsville, August 2C-30, 1895. All teachers intending to teach in the county this year will be expected to be present and lend their support. Absence or lack of interest will be taken as an evidence of professional weakness. The institute is not held for the county superintendent, nor the trustees, nor the citizens, but for the teachers expressly. The work presented will be of the highest character along the lines most helpful to the teacher in his school room work. You can't afford to miss it the procession is moving keep in line lest some one else takes your place. We hope to enroll every teacher in the county this year, and by your co-operation can have the best institute ever held in the county. The trustees will be with us most of the week, and will attend Thursday as a Board. Teachers, come prepared to get your Reading Circle books. All friends of education are cordially invited. .T. S. ZUCK,

A WAR INCIDENT.

An Instructive Moral and a Beautiful Lesson.

To the Editor The Journal. During the war of the rebellion a Union soldier carelessly sauntered along one evening at the outskirts of the lines and at an unguarded point came within the easy musket range of a rebel scout. The latter drew a deadly aim upon with his ever ready carbine, and a hutnan life hung upon the mere pulsation of a finger.

Twenty-five years after this a man sat upon the deck of a Hudson river boat, and as he leaned back in his chair enjoying the beautiful scenery of that grand old river his soul broke out in the 'strains of the hymn, and the music of the words floated upon the air: "Cover my defenseless head.

With the shadow of thy winjrs." Immediately a gentleman sprang to his side and said: "I believe I recognize that voice. Were you not a Union soldier?" "I was." "Did you not wander away from your command one evening in June, 1SG4, and sauntering alone along the banks of the Katchee, and did you not sing that "song?" "I did." "Give me your hand and God bless you. I was a Confederate scout and had a bead drawn upon you, and in an instant would liaye sent a bullet to your heart that evening, but I paused as your voice reached me: '•Cover my defenseless head, "With the shadow of Thy wings." "Your song was a prayer. God lowered my musket from my shoulder. Your defenseless head was covered by the shadow of His wings."

This incident is but one of those which are as numerous as the sands of the sea, and as innumerable as the stars of heaven in which our defenseless heads are covered by the shadow of His wings. There is not a moment in human life, from the first lisp of the infant to the verge Jof the grave that is not a defenseless wanderer upon the banks of a hazardous river, but a step from time to boundless eternity. Yet our defenseless heads are covered by the shadow of His wings. The structures which we erect for our habitations, whether the humble cot, or the magnificent palace, are to the elements which surround us as are the ant hills upon which we tread, unseen, yet, are our defenseless heads covered by the shadow His wings, His grace, His mercy, His love. These! are the shadows of His wings. More is not contained in all our language than these three words grace, mercy, love. These are the shadows of His wings which protect us through the silent and unseen dangers of sleep and guide and guard our footsteps through the hours of waking, and the thousands of its unseen daylight dangers.

TRAVIS.

Crawfordsville, Aug. 16, '95.

A Visit to the Business College. Through the kindness of Prof. A. J. Hall, principal of the Crawfordsville Business College, a JOURNAL reporter enjoyed a very pleasant hour yesterday examining the workings of that most useful institution of learning. The thing emphasized in every department seemed to be practicality. Everywhere the object of the teacner is to fit for actual business life, not by a study of theories merely but also of the application of these theories to the every day problems of the store and office. Another thing scarcely of less importance in Prof. Hall's eyes is thoroughness. He does not let a pupil go out to seek a situation until thoroughly prepared to fill a place with credit to himself and the college. A cerificate from the Crawfordsville Business College means a great deal therefore. There is an excellent corps of teachers. Prof. Hall has charge of Commercial Law, Actual Business and Book Keeping and Penmanship and will be assisted later this Fall by his accomplished wife. The short-hand and typewriting are in charge of Prof. F. G. Walker and telegraphy is efficiently taught by Messrs. C. P. James and H. Johnson. A course of lectures by prominent attorneys will be one of the features of the winter. A young man or woman can make no mistake in entering this school.

A Skunk Farm.

Waynetown Despatch: It is not generally known that there is a skunk farm in less than a mile and a half of Waynetown where that pretty but deceptive little animal is kept and reared, but such is a fact, there being at the present time about thirty of them kept in a lot of about an acre, enclosed by a tight board fence about six feet high. The party who has them goes into the enclosure, waters and feeds them as he would chickens, pigs or other farm animals, and they will run around him and fondle with his feet and legs. The sight is a pretty one, the number of cats being made up of all the different colors of the tribe. He says there isn't a particle of danger of them using their munitions of war s® long as there is no reasons given them for taking the defensive. The owner expects to reap a rich harvest from his crop of cats as soon as the fur season opens up in dead earnest and prices get good.
