Who Can Beat II?

Homer Appeals.

Homer Gott, the New Ross vender of spiritous, malt and vinous poison, has appealed his case to the circuit court, the commissioners having refused to grant him license.

The Memorial Church.

The new Memorial church on Mill street is just completed and services will be held there for the first time next Sunday. Dr. E. R. Thomson will conduct the services.

Great Interest at Walnut Grove. Dr. Hickman and \Vm. M. Reeves spoke at Walnut Grove last Monday to a crowd that packed the school house. Great interest was manifested. M. W. Bruner and Wm. Johnson also spoke brieflv.

The Canton Trip.

Mr. Patterson, agent of the Big Four, has informed those who were contemplating an excursion to Canton to see McKinley that the lowest rate to be obtained was S4.50 for forty or more people. If a crowd of two hundred could be secured a special train would be made up. It is not likely that the excursion will go, however, as the money can be used to better advantage in paying campaign expenses here at home.

In Still Another Court.

Lafayette Call: In the circuit court last evening was filed the case of William R. Jacobs against Simpson and William B. Montgomery, a suit for slander and false imprisonment, with a claim for damages in the snin of S15.0C0. The case was first instituted in Montgomery county and a change of venue made to Fountain and from the latter place to Tippecanoe. The case is one of a great deal of importance to the interested parties.

hoteliers' lteunion.

The Ripley Township Veterans' Association will hold their second annual reunion and picnic1 in the grove of Comrade Ham two and three-quarter miles northwest of Alamo, just across the road from Clore's Grove, on Thursday, Oct. 1, 1SU6. The following is the program: 10:.'10—Address of Welcome.

Response.

11:80—Business Meeting of the Organization. 12:00—Dinner.

At the afternoon meeting speaking will be the order, by good speakers who have promised to be present also short talks by comrades.

Everybody is invited, regardless of age, sex, party or religion. Come and bring haversacks and baskets filled, and help us enjoy a grand day together.

By order of the president. JAMES M. SMITH, Secretary.

Mr. Staley of Linden.

Frankfort Crescent: When one lone highwayman can hold up three men and at the point of a pistol compel them to rob each other and turn the cash over to him, then Dick Turpin's glory fails, and another takes the public's attention and cash.

Atl o'clock this morning, according to their Btory, J. H. Staley, of Linden, and Lon Beard and U. H. Brooks, of this city, were held up at the corner of John and Morrison streets by alone highwayman who by the aid of revolver induced them to go through each other's pockets and turn the valuables over to him. Staley it seems was the only one to report a loss. He was touched for $2 and claims that nearly S100 more and a gold watch escaped. He gives a minute descriptioa of the robber, but the police haven't caught him.

THE LITERACY CLUBS.

What the Athenian and the Onlatenon Clubs Will Do Muring the Coming Season.

The club life of Crawfordsville has always been one of its distinctive and most attractive characteristics and there is unusual interest manifested along this line at the opening of the present season. The two leading clubs, the Athenian and Ouiatenou, have had their programmes prepared and are ready for the year's work. The Ouia-' tenon has been enjoying a two years' siesta but awakes now all the brighter for its rest, and insures its future success and welfare by passing a rule which throttles the man with the illimitably long paper by limiting the length of a dissertation to twenty minutes. The following is the club's officers, personnel and programme for the current season:

A COMRADE'S LETTER.

Written by Kev. A. P. Harrell to Hie Brother and Comrade* anci Kead at the Mbir Murket Iieuniou.

ATTICA, Ind., Sept. 14, LSOG.— My Dear Brother and Comrades:—It would have no doubt furnished me much and lasting pleasure to have met with you at your annual social reunion this 16th of September, 1S96. But circumstances over which I have no control decree otherwise. I accept it as coming for my good, as all things work togethe'r for good to them who love the Lord. Although I am somewhat disappointed, yet I am content with my lot. Knowing the "Godliness with contentment is great gain." I cherish the memory of the boys of the Fortieth Indiana regiment. I have for them, a very warm feeling in my heart. Nor does the fervency of that feeling cool down when I think of the noble boys of other regiments, who wore the blu^ and for love of country, and the common cause of humanity, faced death and did it willingly, and by their loyalty and heroism maintained our common union which otherwise would have been severed in twain,

With my heart, continuing to beat with the same warmth. I reach my hand across the once, but now obliterated line, and grasp the hand of the boy in gray and say, "noble boy! thou art braver than we. Thou art more valiant than we, thou didst face death for naught. While we for one common cause, which you enjoy as well as we. Had the cause you espoused proved successful, you would have been less than a citizen of the United States to-day, hence the result of our success holds you in greater esteem than you were contending for. Today you are a citizen under the protection of the grandest government of earth, and no Nation has the right to harm one hair of your head, "Praise the Lord" therefore as th« war is over, and peaei reigns, and as we are civil citizens a civil government, breathing the pure air of free America. Let us all look up and exclaim in the words of the angels "glory to God in the highest and on earth, peace, good will toward men."

God bless you my brother. God bless you my comrades, God bless you my friends.

You humble servant trusting in the Counselor, A. P. HAKTCKI.I..
