Last Thursday was proclaimed, by the oldest inhabitants, as the hottest, October day within their recollection, and the Weather Bureau statistics almost bear them out. Only one October day during the last twenty-seven years has been warmer, according to the Weather Bureau reports, and that was earlier in the month. On Oct. 2, 1884, the maximum temperature recorded was 85. The high mark last Thursday was SO.

Dan in KranUI'ori.

Frankfort Ncics: Dan Sims, of Covington, who is the guest of a relative near Manson. was in the city to-day a hort time. His visit, so far as known, had no political significance, though Mr. Sims is an avowed candidate for Congress from this district and will undoubtedly be before the next convention seeking the honor of a nomination. It is also said that Mr. Sims has not entirely given up the idea of removing to this city, but that there is a strong probability of his making this city his home in the near future.

Mark Motlit's Mishap.

Terre Haute L'.t/jress: Mrs. Mollie Bell was injured by being run over by a wheelman yesterday evening about 0 o'clock. The wheelman was Mark Motlit, principal of the Wayeland schools, who, unlike many wheelmen when they run over anyone, assisted the woman to her feet and did what h« could for her. Mrs. Bell was injured, but not seriously. Motlit was not scorching when the accident occurred and was trying to get through the crowded street when his wheel struck Mrs. Hell.

An accident occurred at 317 south Water street last Friday which narrowly escaped being a serious affair. Walter Bennett, the victim, weDtdown cellar about 0 o'clock to find a hign that he had painted earlier in the day, aud being unable to see it struck a match. Now there was a bowl of gasoline about six feet away and consequently the air was heavy with i'.s vapors. A big explosion was the result and the next thing Mr. Kennett knew he was on the cellar steps near the top. A chair had preceded him in his upward journey and in the cellar the flames were getting a fair start Dazed and burned as he was Mr. Bennett turned in to help his father put out the fire, which was accomplished after a short but desperate struggle. He is badly blistered all over the face and left hand and most of his hair is singed off but the burns were not of a serious nature.

A Pretty III.01c \Veltling.

On Wednesday evening, Oct. 13, at the suburban home of John Stine, occurred the marriage of their daughter, Florence, to Mr. Charles Smith. The ceremony, a most beautiful and impressive one, was performed by the Rev. Pluukett, of the Christian church. Promptly at 8 o'clock Miss Lolland began playing the wedding march and in the presence of a number of relatives and friends the happy couple were united in marriage. At the conclusion congratulations were extended and an excellent wedding dinner was served which did honor to the occasion. The bride was tastily gowned in a beautiful cream colored landsdown, with lace and ribbon trimmings, carried a shower bouquet of bride's roses. The groom in the customary black. Both young people are well respected, aud have many warm friends who wish them much happiness as they journey together through life. The bride i* well aud favorably known throughout this part of the country, and by her modest and unassuming ways have won for her the lasting friendship of all. The groom is an industrious young man of excellent habits. He is highly respected in the community where he resides. The parlors and dining room were beautifully decorated with autumn leaves and cut flowers. Mr. and Mrs. Smith received numerous and handsome presents from their admiring friends as a token of esteem in which they are held by them. The guests departed at a late hour wishing then' a bright and prosperous future. A GUEST.

I.al'eai-l In a Wreck.

J. H. LaPearl writes from Salem, Mo., as follows: "Of all the experiences, trials and tribulations of the LaPearl circus the night of October 12 the one to be remembered. We showed at Salem, a small town on a branch of the 'Frisco Line,' which same line is no more than two streaks of rust and some rotten wood, and fter getting out in the woods four miles from town the elephant car, which was next to the engine, left the track and turned over against the bank, leaving 20 head of horses, two elephants and a camel in one confused heap. The cries of the animals and horses, combined with the hallooing of the men made night hideous and for a few minutes pandemonium reigned supreme. The men soon tore the roof off the car and with hook ropes pulled the horses out, the elephant got his head against thereof and walked out to his keeper, and the picture thus made was one to be remembered. We cannot tell at present when we will get out, though the wreck crew are working like Trojans."

.. iiaroiansliip DispufV. It appears that Charles Reimann will not have smooth sailing in his guardianship of Hazel Zeiglar, the little daughter of the late Otto J. Zeiglar. He was appointed at the instance of the relatives of Mr. Zeiglar, but Mrs. Zeiglar, it seems, had a man named Ikey appointed on Oct. 13 bv the court at Greensburg. It will be maintained by those who had Mr. Reiman appointed that the court at Greensburg had no jurisdiction in the case, the home of the interested parties being here and the property also being in Crawfordsville. There is 1,0 particular love lost between the interested parties, so a very warm contest is anticipated.

Rev, W. T. Warbinton writes the JouiXAi. from Springfield, O that: am located in Springfield ae pastor of the First Christian church. Also my fellow townsman, Rev. Thomson from Crawfordsville, is tny co-laborer here. We have a splendid class of ministers in Springfield. We have twenty-five in our Ministerial Associa tion, which meets every Monday morn ing. I have been the president for the past year and a more genial class of men cannot be found anywhere, Crawfordsville not excepted. I have passenger agent of the Hocking Val many pleasant recollections of Craw-1 ley railroad with headquarters at Col fordsville in my boyhood days." umbus, 0.

when he married in the family he did, all thought he would settle down and make a man of himself. But lie f.0011 began to go wroi-g and his wife would be compelled to return to her friends for protection. Then tie would come back repentant She would return and his father would again furnish money for another Etart in bu.sinebs. At one time it was dry dry goods, another grocery, ana later he took to the barber trade. He assisted him in getting a beautiful home and in furnishing the most complete barber shop ever in town. For a time all was well but, he soon became restless and rented the shop. Finally h- again took possession with N. A. Booher, an expert, steady barber, as partner, and for a time again all w.s well but Will soon took to driuking moved to Middletown where he undertook to run a shop, but as the sequel shows he did more drinking than barbering. Some weeks ago his wife came back determined to give him up, aud no one saw or heard of him until Friday evening. He was seen here as late as S o'clock that night. He drank bat little if any while here, but those who saw and talked with him say he seemed different from some cause. When the news came that he had shot his wife those who saw him here could hardly believe it, and late as it was the town was soon aroused. Had the shooting been done here we cannot tell just what might have happened.

DEAD SET ON GOING.

William Campbell, of Mace, Swallows

1'HI-IS (II-CEII

anil Then lioti^h 011 ital s.

Win. Campbell, an old soldier residing- at Mace, succeeded in quitting this rale of tears after a very determined effort to do so. William lived in Mace with his second wife, her several children and her mother. Her mother is said not to have been the personification of adiuirability, and to trouble between her and Campbell the people ascribe the latter's rash act. It is pretty well established that William intended to depart and wasn't simply working a little bluff for effect. He got up with the lark last Thursday and while the lark was hustling for the indiscreet worm William was hustling for Paris green. He purchased a quarter of a pound of it at Armstrong's store, and going home he mixed the entire package of the deadly drug with water and drank the noxious potion with as great nonchalance as though it had been gooseberry wine. Then, as though fearful that he hadn't done enough to insure first class passage over the Styx, he went back to the store and asked for a box of Rough on Rats. Mr. Armstrong inquired as to what he wished it for and Campbell stated that a rat infested the wood house and was eating up all the wood. Mr. Armstrong had prepared some of the poison on bread to kill mice in his store room, so he gave Campbell a slice of it. The determined man walked out and deliberately ate this also. Very soon he was quite sick and the venerable "Doc"' Shotts was called in to give medical attention. "Doc" battled against grim death l'or many hours,but Friday mornng at five o'clock Mr. Campbell died.

He was conscious most of the time and deliberately stated what he had done, expressing as his only regret the fact that the poison had not killed him at once. He stated that he was determined to die and that a whole regiment like "Doc" Shotts couldn't save him. He gave directions as to his funeral and treated the matter very calmly.

Campbell served during the war in the 10th Indiana Battery and was a good soldier. He was wounded by a shot in the hip and the wound troubled him greatly to the time of his death. The funeral occurred Saturday afternoon at one o'clock. Interment at Oak Hill.

IT IS KASY TO TELL.

People are not apt to get anxious about their health soon enough. If you are "not quite well" or "half sick have you ever thought that your kidneys may be the cause of your sick ness'.'

It is easy to tell by setting aside your urine for twenty-four hours sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull ache in the back is also convinc ing proof that the kidneys and bladder need doctoring.

There is satisfaction in knowing that the great, remedy, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, fulfills every wish in relieving weak or diseased kidneys and all forms of bladder and urinary troubles. Not only does does Swamp-Root give new life and activity to the kidneys—the cause of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts as a tonic for the entire constitution. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and one dollar. So remarkably successful has Swamp-Root been that if you wish to prove its great merit, you may have a sample bottle and pamphlet both sent free by mail. Mention the Crawfordsville JOURNAL and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, N. Y. The proprietors of this paper guarantee the genuinelessof this offer.
