This company has won in many 6harp contests, and they will give a complete exhibition of this great drill. The racing program for tbe day will be exceptionally interesting.
Hert Garfield Barr.
A beautiful chain of ten golden links last Friday morning was riven. Nine of these links remained upon earth while death claimed the tenth for Heaven. But friends do not mourn for the missing one. By pure lives and kind words spoken you will again unite in Bert's beautiful home where this chaiu will ne'er be broken. Bert Garfield Barr was born Dec. 5, 1880, died of rheumatism Aug. 27, 1897, aged 10 years, eight months and 22 days. He was the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. James Barr, residing on Lafayette pike, and out of a family of eight chil dren was the first one called home to his Maker. Bert's devotion to bis mother was worthy of emulation by other boys. His earnings were turned over to her on each pay day, and when he needed clothing and other necessities of life she was always his counsel, always showing her the respect due a mother from her son. It seems that tbe old adage is again true in thiB case that "death loves a shining mark," but if none but the wayward and careless would die we would not appreciate the good as we do, thus teaching us the lesson that God doeth all things well. The funeral occurred at the family residence on Lafayette pike Saturday evening, and wab conducted by Rev. R. D. Trick, of the Baptist church. Misses Nicholson and Scott sang several beautiful hymns. He was borne to the hearse by his young associates, while the Misses Casey, Miss Collins and Miss Lizzie Fell carried the numerous and beautiful floral offerings to Oak Hill cemetery, where the body of the beloved boy will rest in peace. The family have the sincere sympathy of the entire community in their great bereavement. Miss J. R. E.
County Snnlay School Convention. About five hundred people attended the county Sunday school convention at Linden last Friday. In the morning the church was full, in the afternoon packed. Every person on the programme was present and well prepared, and taken altogether it was one of the best conventions ever held in our county. There are three things that always give our county a successful convention. 1. The topics are up to date and deal with our present needs. 2. The persons "to whom they are assigned are always present. 3. They are always well prepared. Persons are selected to serve on programme because of their ability, and because they have been interested along the particular line of Sunday school work covered by their subject, hence it is not a disappointment to busy men and women to give up the day's work for the convention, for they always feel that tliev have been well paid for attending.
The next convention will be held on Friday, Nov. 20. C. R.
More Trouble 011 Green Street. Woman, lovely woman, was the cause of the coming together of Grant Warren and Frank Creque at the town pump on Green street. It appears that one of these pepper headed beaux had been eutirely too gay with the female relatives of the other and had capped the climax by blabbing it. When they met at the pump they went at it hammer and tongs and before they could be separated both were as bloody as bull pups after about in the prize pit. As soon as they were torn apart they vamoosed in order to escape arrest.
The Hig liaeo.
The race between the great "Pacing Kings," Joe Patchen 2:01 J^, and Star Pointer 1:50.'.4, is the greatest event that ever has been, or can at this day be offered to the public. They are the pair to which tbe hope of the turf world clings when the 2:00 minute record in a race is to be made. Horsemen are evenly divided as to whether this will be done on the Indianapolis track, Sept. 15 but with those that are acquainted with this track, the opiniou prevails that the mark will be 2:00 or better.
ONK OK TWO WAYS.
The bladder was created for one purpose, namely, a receptacle for the urine, and as 6ucb it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from careless local treatment of other diseases.
CAUSE.
CUIEF
urine from unhealthy
Unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the womb, like the blad' der was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience manifested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided. To find out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty-four hours a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney and bladder remedy, is soon realized. If you need a medicine you need the best.

NOAH CLODFELTER'S WOES.
lie Tells What He Has Suffered at the Hands of the Alleged Villain Enricht,
A special from Marion, Ind., says: Noah J. Clodfelter, president of the Indianapolis, Anderson & Marion railroad, who is here, announces that it is his intention to bring Louis Euricht, of Chicago, to Indiana for trial if there is any way possible to do it.
Mr. Clodfelter says that the 334,500 of notes and the 840,000 in bonds, to secure the notes, which Enricht got from the company, were obtained without consideration and under falee pretense. The receipt for the notes and bonds which Enrichtsigned, and which Clodfelter holds, says that the obligations of the company were -given upon the showing of Enricht that he had 310 tons of rails loaded on cars and in tranbit to different points on the line, and the further showing that he had bought §22,000 worth of electrical appliances, including twenty-four motore, which had been loaded on cars, and which were in transit to St. Louis, where the cars were to be placed upon them.
It was upon these representations that the notes and bonds were delivered to Enricht, and it is because neither the rails nor the electrical appliances were shipped that Mr. Clodfelter is reporting to every device known to the law to bring Enricht to Indiana to try him for obtaining the property in question under false pretenses.
There are other charges by which Mr. Clodfelter says he will make it interesting should he ever succeed in getting him on Indiana soil. One of these is the alleged alteration of an estimate which Chief Engineer Ansel Smith made in favor of Cochran & Ross, one of the sub-contracting firms. Mr. Clodfelter says that the original estimate is made to read "Louis Enricht, dr. to Cochran & Ross." The original estimate, it is asserted,showed the excavation and removal of S.S07 yards of earth, at the contract price of 7.99 cents a yard. Clodfelter charges that Enricht took this estimate, and from it made another, which showed the removal of 17,713 yards of earth at 22 cents a 3'ard. This estimate, which purports to have been signed by Engineer Smith, wasattested by Euricht's stenographer, a woman, who is also a notary public. This false and fraudulent estimate, it is charged, was presented by Enricht to Frank Maus, of Indianapolis, the moneyed man of the company, and payment of the estimate was demanded. It appears that Maus regarded the estimate as suspicious, and he refused to pay it. As Enricht was in pressing need of funds, however, Maus lent him 84,500 without reference to the estimate. It is claimed that Enricht used §3,200 of this in payment ot thesub-contractors, and that he kept the remainder.
Clodfelter makes an even more startling charge about a conspiracy to get possession of more of the bonds of the company. According to the story which Mr. Clodfelter tells, there was to be made a showing to the effect that 2,000 tons of steel had been loaded, and that it was in transit to the gas belt:—1,000 tons billed for Fairmount and 1,000 tons for Alexandria. This conspiracy, Clodfelter charges, required the assistance of a certain unscrupulous Chicago broker, who was to procure the forged bills of lading to show the shipment of the steel. A I'inkerton detective, it is said, was called into requisition, the broker was found, and, being pressed into a corner.. it is said that he made a confession giving the details asset forth, and admitted that that he was to receive 81,500 when the additional block of bonds had been landed.
Clodfelter says he does not know whether the S1G.000 worth of bonds given to secure the notes have been disposed of by Enricht or not. He says the possession of these bonds by Enricht and the complications arising constitute one of the gravest obstacles to the pushing of the work of construction that he has yet encountered, and it is not likely that any progress will be made until the matter is settled, as with these bonds outstanding with nothing to show for them in the way of construction or equipment, make it impossible to dispose of the bonds that are left at such figure as could be realized were these bonds in the possession of the country. Governor Tanner having refused to honor the requisition of Governor Mount for the return of Enricht to this State for trial, papers have been drawn with a view to proceeding against Enricht in the Federal Court.

The readers of this paper will bo pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarih being a constitutional disease requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally. acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation or the dlsoase, and giving the patient strength by building up the coustitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer On« Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. 8end for list of testimonials.
