GOOD TEMPLARS.
*arliii£'toii Mei'liny Proves To It Most Pleasant and successful One.
The second quarterly session of the Montgomery county Good Templar lodges was held Tuesday in Darlington, comprising all the lodges in the county. Some two hundred members were present and all were provided entertainment by the Darlington members and citizens at their homes. The blue ribbon and the Good Templars' buttons were conspicuous and the streets were filled with people, old and young, male and female, all wearing bright, shining faces. Peace and quietude prevailed, quite a contrast from the previous (election) day. when beer, whisky and wine ran riot and drunkenness was seen on every corner. Great praise and thanks was given Dr. J. S. Cott'man, County Deputy, for the able manner in which he handled the visiting Templars and provided entertainment. The Doctor is one of the most enthusiastic workers in the cause of temperance and Darlington is proud of the good work being done by him and his associates.
The day session ot the lodges was held behind closed doors. At the close a vote of thanks was given the citizens of Darlington for their overilowing hospitality. The exercises at night were open to the public and were held in the Presbyterian church, which was tilled to overflowing, hundreds not being able to obtain seats. Dr. Coffman presided in his usual happy way. The programme was lengthy and interesting in every feature, and the musical ability of each lodge was far above the average. The welcome address was made by Rev. O. E. Kelly and was full of eloquence, wit and humor. The humorous response was delivered by W. P. Daggett, of Crawfordsville, in his jovial manner. The banquet in the evening was a very delightful affair and was continued until a very late hour. l'he next session will be held in Wavaland on Tuesday, August 7, 1897.

THE QUART SHOP LAWS,
Sulooi!- Keepers S:iil to be Aiilin^ in Its I'liVorccmcdl,
The officers of tie saloon-keepers' State organization suv the quart shop law, passed by tlirf recent General Assembly, is being enforced in most counties. The retail saloon keepers, it is said, are assisting the authorities in driving the violators of the law out of business. One of the latest reports received^from the organization is from Delaware county. It shows that at the time of the enactment of the quart shop law there were fifty-one saloons and sixty five quart shops iu-the coun ty. At this time there, are sixty one .saloons and one quart shop. The retail saloon keepers of Muncie who hud always refused to join the State organization, have recently coma in. and are assisting in the tight against the quart shops From all accounts the temperance people and the regularly licensed saloon-keepers are pleased with the outlook. The temperance people "point with pride" to the accomplishments under the Nicholson law and the quart shop law. In 1305, when the Nicholson law was passed, there were about 5,000 saloons in the State. In eighteen months 600 of these bad been "remonstrated" out of existence but 1,400 quart shops had sprung up. These quart shops, it is pointed out, must all go under the new law.
HUGE WASTE OF GAS.
Oruye Apprehensions IC.xpressed That Oil AVil| Displace the l'uel.
Indianapolis Journal: The operations of the Alexandria oil field have excited the gravest apprehension for the future of natural gas, not only in this city, but all over the gas territory. The long distance telephone in Governor Mount's ollice was kept busy yesterday with messages from the gas belt asking him to invoke all the powers of the law with all possible speed to prevent the further waste of gas. Three delegations called upon the Governor yesterday upon this same subject, one composed of manufacturers headed by E. C. Atkins another representing the Manufacturers' Gas Company, headed by F. A. \V. Davis, and another headed by S. T. Murdock, of Lafayette, manager of the gas plants at Lafayette, Logansport, Peru, Wabash and other towns controlled "bv the Dietrich syndicate
It was represented to the Governor that millions of feet of gas were being wasted daily by the oil prospectors who endeavored to blow the gas out of the holes drilled in order to get at the oil beneath. The point was made that while oil could go only to the benefit of those mining it, the gas was of benefit to the general public, a fact the Legislature had recognized by passing laws to prevent its waste. The Governor assured them that all possible steps would be taken under the exististing statutes to preserve the gas supply. Mr. Murdock suggested that if the laws upon the statute books were not adequate to preserve the supply the feuggestion of Major Doxey in Sunday's Journal that a special session of the Legislature be called to deal with the subject, was well worth consider-'
