Gen. Walluce at the Jolly Reunion of the Eleventh Indiana Infantry.
Louisville
T/mc*
The jneeting was called to order at 11:30. The first business was the registration of the names of those present, together with their present postoffice address. This is the first time that the Eleventh Indiana Infantry has held a reunion for two years, and when the members compared notes it was found that several of their comrades had passed away. The number belonging to the association now is 0(17.
The subject of recovering the remains of Gen. McC-auley, who died and was buried at Managua, Nicaraugua,in the early part of 1S94, was brought up. It was found that the matter had received due attention and that the removal could not be effected until five years have elapsed. This is a very stringent law with the Nicaraguan government, and no influence that can be brought to bear upon the subject has had any weight with national officials. A committee of three was accordingly appointed to keep the subject alive, and consists of Gen. Lew Wallace,Gen. McGinnis and Comrade W.R. Wickliffe.
Nominations for the election of officers foi the ensuing year was then declared in order. Gen. Wallace arose and made a motion that the old officers be elected by acclamation. The motion carried and the old officers were declared elected. They are as follows: Jas. R. Ross, of Indianapolis, President William C. Phipps, of Indianapolis, Secretary N. R. Ruckle, of Indianapolis, Treasurer. A new office was then created by common consent, being that of First Vice President, which honor was bestowed upon William C. Noonis, of this city.
The election of officers for the executive committee resulted in the choice of E. P. Thayer, James R. Robinson, Will C. David, W. H. Hubbard and George Butler. The place selected for the next annual reunion of the Eleventh Indiana Infantry was Indianapolis. The date is fixed for the 19th of October, 1890.
Ben Bolted.
Ben Zachary, while laboring under the butt end of a very heavy jag last week, got into difficulty. Ben was out at the fair grounds and began hostilities by attempting to write his name on the cheek of one of the fatfaced midway maidens. He tore up all kinds of trouble by the roots, and had the giants, prize fat women, snake charmers and speckled wild boys all hiding under canvas flaps or lemonade tubs when Officer of the Day Allen Robinson appeared. Ben then bolted and was not stopped until half an ounce of real cold lead from the officer's revolver had been sent after him. Ben is now in jail reflecting on the evanescent character of human greatness.
Will Fay the Tuition.
Lebanon Pioneer: At a called meeting of the county board of education last Monday, there was a full attendance of trustees. T. E. Bradshaw was chosen secretary and Superintendent Coons president. It was agreed that where facilities for higher work was not afforded in the townships, graduates holding common school diplomas might enter high schools in other townships and the tuition would be paid by the trustees of the several townships but for no longer period than the schools in the respective townships are in session. This is in compliance with decisions of the court.
Jh
Wants Damages.
Lafayette Journal: The county commissioners last week heard the claim of George E. Richey, of Montgomery county, for S'2,500 damages for personal injuries. The claimant was represented by M. W. Bruner, a Crawfordsville attorney. Richey drove off a small bridge on the Grimes free gravel road last May, and alleges that his spine was permanently injured. The road in question is the county line road between Montgomery and Tippecanoe counties. The commissioners did not take any action.
Maci-ied.
John C. Bryant and Lucy May Spice were married by S. A. Stilwell at Myers & Charni's store last Friday afternoon.
CRAWFORDSVILLE, IlsTDIANA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1895.-TWELVE PAGES
The Eleventh In
diana Infantry held a reunion from 9 to 10 this morning- in the Knights of Labor hall Polj'teehnic building. About sixty of the old regiment were in attendance, and several of them had brought their wives and daughters. Maj. James R. Ross, of Indianapolis, was the presiding officer. A few minutes before the meeting was called to order Gen. Lew Wallace, who commanded this regiment, entered the hall and was greeted by a storm of cheers.
WORKED OUT.
The Suttons, of Waveland. Swindle T^arge Number, Including Fred Gardtier, of thin City.
Waveland riulc)icmlcnt: The disappearance of John W. and Thaddeus Sutton has been the talk of the town for several days. The Suttons have been buying and shipping stock from here for two or three years and doing a pretty large business. They had little or no capital, but they had an arrangement with the Parke Bank, of Rockville, to pay for stock with checks on that bark then the stock would be shipped and sold, and the draft for the money was sent from the commission direct to the bank and placed to the credit of the Suttons. Usually the draft for the money arrived at the bank before the cheeks were presented for payment. On Monday of last week they made a large shipment—three cars of cattle and a car of hogs, worth about §5,000. They were bought of T. L. llanna, Wm. McClain, John Warrick and Fred Gardner, all of whom accepted the cheeks without question except Mr. Hanna: he asked the bank bj* telegraph if it would accept the Suttons' checks, and received an affirmative reply before he would let his stock go, so that part of the loss— 31,843—falls on the Parke Bank. On Thursday the bank received a draft for §30 from the commission men. This aroused suspicion, so payment on the other checks was refused, and a man was sent to Chicago to investigate. He fouud that the Suttons had drawn the amount they thought the stock would fetch,leaving the usual instructions to forward the balance to the Parke Bank and had disappeared.
The losses through the Suitons are about as follows: Parke Bank, SI,843: John Warrick, SI,400 Wm. McClain, S275 Fred Gardner 8800. In addition it is said the Suttons owe the Parke Bank about §1,400, and smaller amounts to various persons.
WINTER LINGERS IN LAP OF SPRING.
A Bourne Bride of at Least Tliirty-tive Takes a Boy to Itaige.
LastFridayClerk Sparks issued a marriage license to Wm. F. Nichols and Matilda N. Davidson, of North Salem. The blushing groom was led in by his bride and his mother, the latter giving her written consent to his marriage. Willie is only IS, and consequently his ma's consent was essential. Matilda is older and coyly acknowledged to being 32. She was safely launched on the wild sea of society when Willie was born and she watched his growth with absorbing interest. She was having proposals when Willie was having the colic, and was recovering from the first case of true love about the time that Willie was getting over the measles. It's all in a life time, we suppose, but it does seem tough to sacrifice such innocence and beauty as Willie had to designing old age. It is a genuine case of winter lingering in the lap of spring.
A Girl Badly Burned.
Lafayette Courier: Miss Sallie Stallard, of Sugar Grove, aged 18 years, was badly burned about 0 o'clock Wednesday night by her clothes catching fire from a gasoline stove. Her sister, hearing her cries, came to her assistance, but was unable to extinguish the flames before almost the entire upper portion of her body was terribly burned. Miss Stallard has been in delecate health, and it is doubtful if she will recover from her injuries. Her mother, who is visiting in Kansas City, was telegraphed for and reached home to-day.
Under Advisement.
The famous Courtney divorce suit was tried last Friday before Judge Harney. Rebecca told her tale of woe and Tom made no appearance. Upon the conclusion of the testimony Judge Harney stated that he would take the case under advisement. He has granted Rebecca so many divorces from Tom only to have her chase off and marry him again in a week or so after that he proposes to hold his decision now in suspense until he sees whether this last separation is genuine.
From the Pacific Slope.
Delphi Journal: Charles Gregg, of Crawfordsville, was in the city Monday, the guest of Miss Grace Gregg.
Mr. Gregg was returning from a trip to the Pacific slope. He stated that there was little perceptible improvement in business conditions out there. lie stated that it was accepted as an indisputable truth- that Democracy was dead and its hide tanned?

The fair closed last Friday and as usual was very successful. The attendance of the whole week averaged be--yond the attendance of last year and the exhibits were eminently creditable.

NOTHS.
Wilbur Cooley is undoubtedly the best starter who ever officiated here and the association would do well to secure his services in future.
Expert Powell declares that while he has judged all over the State this year, he has not seen so fine an exhibit of horses as was displayed here.
J. J. Insley states that hereafter someone else must take his place in looking after the track. It will be hard to secure a more efficient man.
J. W. Taylor, of Vountsville, wore the honors with his magnificent exhibit of sheep. Mr. Taylor's sheep are among the finest ever displayed in the State.
J. II. L., the horse winning the free-for-all pace Thursday, is owned by Mr, Moore, of Paris, Ivy. Mr. Moore is a brother of Mrs. A. S. Miller and Mrs. Will Goltra.
Two track records were broken on Thursday. J. H. L. broke the record of 2:14% made by "Poem" last year and San Francisco broke the mile running record of 1:47 made some twelve years ago.
The gentleman who lets the priveleges should certainly exact more sense of propriety another year and I bar out some of the disreputable shows that were allowed on the grounds this year.
The grand parade of prize stock occurred on Friday and made a magnificent pageant. The procession was headed by Lew Cochran's beautiful four-in-hand team of English hackneys which received the red ribbon yesterday.
Nixon, Judge Britton's colt, is doing phenomenal work and is attracting great attention. It is green on the track but shows the best qualities and seems to improve in the progress of each race. A great future is predicted for Nixon.
The talk of the race between Que Allen and Rensselaer Wilkes being prearranged is all twaddle. The fact of the matter is that Rensselaer Wilkes is not a horse for a half-mile track and is nowhere near his best there. Que Allen is a reliable and honest horse on any track.
Clint Kiff is a good flag hunter. He has speed but needs a stronger driver than Mr. Freeman, so competent horsemen assert. He will probably sail under a different guide hereafter. Friday after the rocky exhibition he made in the 2:17 pace the driver of "Be Sure" who had never been behind him before put him around the mile in 2:19.
The horse "Thalburg," easy winner of the 2:20 trot in Wednesday's race, has the record of having won more raceT than any other horse in the country. His owner and driver Bates, is a smooth article, and keeps his horse which could go in 2:14 easily, up in the 2:20 class. He alone can drive Thalburg successfully and twists the animal's tail when speed is required. Thalburg is one of the oldest horses on the track.

KOI YET DECIDED.
Hev. C. P. Fugon Has a Call to the Pastorate of a Prosperous Nebraska Church.
Rev. G. P. Fuson's congregation is not yet certain that his valuable services can be retained and there is considerable anxiety current in consequence. The SLundard, an official paper of the church, last week announces that Mr. Fuson has received a call to a large and prosperous Baptist church at McCook, Neb., and that he has accepted the call.
Mr. Fuson, who has just returned from Nebraska, was seen by a JOURNAL representative and asked concerning the truth of the report published. Mr. Fuson stated that it was true he had received a call from the church, but that he had as yet given no answer. He is still unable to state what action he will take in the matter. He will, however, give the call consideration, but will not accept until perfectly free of his relations here, and, perhaps, not at all. His many friends here trust that he will see fit to decline the call and to remain with his Crawfordsville congregation.
Towuahip Keller.
Township trustees when they give relief now to the poor, are required to fill a triplicate blank, one to keep in their office, one for the county commissioners and one for the state board of charities, to be forwarded at the end of each quarter. The county commissioners are prohibited from making the allowances unless the cases are reported in the form required. The trustees must report answers to these questions from every person helped: Name, age, sex, color, occupation, lived how loDg in the county, nationality, what makes relief necessary, is the help for the family, if for family how many share it, name and age of each, came to township from where, relatives live where, date, kind and value of relief.
He is Coming Here.
Ladoga Lcuilcr: George W. Anderson, is arranging to move to Crawfordsville. His father-in-law, Mr. Fisher, has given him a fine lot adjoining the Fisher residence, and George will build an §1,800 residence there this fall. He has also been employed as assistant in the Joe Fisher hardware store.

Charles B. Landis, of the Delphi Journal, has received an invitation froui the Republican State central committee of Ohio to make speeches for Gen. Buslinell, candidate for governor. He will be engaged two weeks in October, commencing about the 13th.
