FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 18. 1808.

TnK most forcible argument against Hawaiian annexation is the fact that the South Carolina Cyclop favors it.

TKN times as many American horses were sent to Germany in 1897 as in 1803, their value last year reachimg $4,769,265.

IT rests with this country to say whether Hawaii shall in years to come be a safeguard or a menace to the Pa cific coast.

THE Cuban war up to date has cost the United States in commerce not far from 8300,000,000. If this country was as sordid as the SpanardB pretend, intervention 'would have come long ago.

Now that the city central committee has decided on a delegate convention the Republicans owe it to themselves, their party and their town to elect as delegates good, clean men—men who are above suspicion and who have the interests of the community sincerely at heart.

MR. DEPKW 6ays Speaker Reed is "the greatest parliamentarian of these timeB." The prompt and decisive treatment of the Teller repudiation resolution by Mr. Reed and the majority behind him is appreciated by the American people as first class parliamentary work.

ASSISTANT Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt says "the United States is a tie with Germany for fifth place in naval power among the great nations.'' This is an effective answer to the ignorant writers and talkers who say that the United States would be an easy prey for Germany and the other nations of Europe in a war with any of those countries. The fact is, in the quality of its vessels and in general lighting strength, only two nations of the world—England and France—are ahead of the United States. However, the naval strength of the United States is far below what it ought to be.

Liberal appropriations for the navy and for coast defenses should be made, and the work on both vigorously pushed.

WM. E. CURTIS the famouB newspaper correspondent brings to light a clever little gem which the soliciting committees of the Crawfordsville Business Mens' Association might do well to have printed on cards and distributed over town. The poem waB written in China by a friend of Mr. Curtis who was struck by the lack of enterprise and push there. 11 is as follows: My friend, have you heard of the town of Fooeliow On the banks of the Iilvor Slow,

Where blooms the wailawhlle llower fair. Where the sometimeorotlier scents the air. And the soft goeasys grow?

It lien in the valley of Whatstheuse the province of Letterslide. And thattlredfeeling is a native there.

It's the home ot the recklessldorricare, Where the giveitups abide.

It stands at the bottom of Lazy hill, and Is easy to reach I declare. Vou've only to fold up your hands and glide

Down the slope of Weakwill's slippery slide To be landed quickly there.

The town is as old as the human race, And It grows with the llightof years. It is wrapped in the fog of idlers' dreams,

I ta streets aro paved with discarded schemes And sprinkled with useless tears.

FROM the Medical Record: There is just now not so much a necessity for educating the public in sanitaiy matters as for perfecting suitable police regulations for threatening epidemics. Thus it would naturally appear to be reasonable to elaborate, strengthen and amplify what we may already have in that line, rather than to aim at some new, untried and obviously unwarrantable measures. From such a point of view tlie bill of Senator Caffery, "granting additional quarantine powers and imposing additional duties upon the Marine Hospital service,"' deserves the support of every one who may hope for a logical settlement of the great question at issue. This bill has for its purpose such a development of the Marine Hospital plant as will make it possible for the general government efficiently to control all maritime and inland quarantine, and is framed on the practical basis of aiding and advising the local authorities and not interfering with them, unless in cases of emergency or when large districts of country are affected and when a general impartial and uniform system of protection is demanded.

Cheadle tlie Man.

Frankfort Ncics: Among the Democratic editors of the Ninth district who visited Frankfort yesterday there was one straight out Cheadle man, Mr. Crampton, of the Delphi Citizen, and one Jim Fippin champion, Mr. Beyhemer, of the Tipton Times. Ben MeIvee, of the Lebanon Pioneer, is known to be for McCardle as first choice, with Cheadle second. But it matters little who the newspapers are for in this instance, Cheadle will be the nominee and the McCardle and Fippin forces might as well become reconciled to the fact without loss of time or money.

1catli of John Mitchell.

John Mitchell, a prominent citizen of Sugar Creek township, died Wednesday after an extended illness. He leaves a widow but no children. Mr. Mitchell was a gentleman highly esteemed in the community.

John Mitchell was born in Champaign county, Ohio. January 22. 1810. His father, William Mitchell, was born in Winchester, Va., June 18, 1770, and at the age of sixteen years he left the parental home and went into the Northwestern Territory. In 1808 he secured a position on a llatboat, in which he proceeded down the Ohio River to New Orleans, then up the Red River and into Texas. For«four years he lived among the Indians, bunting and trapping then in 1804 he returned to the States, and, locating in AdamB county, Ohio, there formed the acquaintance of Miss Sarah Myers, with whom he was united in marriage on the 23d of March, 1810.

In 1815 the father of our subject removed from Adams to Champaign county, Ohio, where he remained until 1830. Then, accompanied by his father he came to Montgomery county, Ind., and purchased a section of land from the government. Here he spent his remaining years until his death, which occurred April 3, 1830, at the age of fifty-nine years, nine months and sixteen days. During the war of 1813 he enlisted in the service of the United States, and 6erved faithfully until the close of the conflict. His wife, the mother of our subject, was born in New Jersey November 13. 1785. and was the daughter of Joseph and Rachel Myers. In 1804 she accompanied her father's family to Adams county, Ohio, where she met and married Mr. Mitchell. After having become the mother of seven children, to whom she gave the most tender nurture and training, she passed away October 11, 1S53.

The only surviving member of the family is the subject of this sketch. In Sugar township, Montgomery county, John Mitchell married Miss Mary, daughter of T. Rouch and Ellen Rice, and after their union the young couple settled in a log cabin on the site their present residence. After having resided there for four years,Mr. Mitchell became contractor for the Vandalia route, and was connected with that railway for two years. In 1849 he became associated with the Big Four in the same capacity. Subsequently he embarked in farming pursuits and took up his abode in the house where his mother had resided prior to her death. In 1872 he discontinued farming in order to give his attention to the grain business, and had an elevato at Colfax, conducting an extensive and successful business as a wholesale dealer in grain for fourteen years. In 1887 heturned to the old homestead.

In 1868 Mr. Mitchell erected a substantial residence, containing eight conveniently arranged, rooms and a good cellar, the building being put up at a cost of about 85.000 besides his own labor. All the timber used in its construction was cut on his farm. On a bitterly cold day, January 22, 180 he and his family took possession of their home. Mr. Mitchell owned two hundred and fifty acies of flue im proved land: his property is well drained, he having put in over two thousand rods of tile at a cost of more than 81,200. Seventy-five acres are planted to timothy and clover and sixty acres each to wheat and corn. A beautiful orchard yieldB a bountiful supply of choice fruit each year, and everything about the place indicates the abiiityjjand thrift of the owner. In addition to general farming Mr. Mitchell also devoted considerable attention to stock raising.

During the War of the Rebellion Mr. Mitchell served as a member of the Home Guard, and took part in the movement to drive Morgan, the bold rebel raider, over the border, chasing him into Ohio. The Guards were under command of Milton B. Waugh. Mr. Mitchell was actively interested in politics, and used his inlluence in favor of the Republican party. He never held any office except that of Justice of the Peace, of which he was an incumbent for twenty years. Socially, he was identified with the Independent Order Odd Fellows, and with Plum Lodge, A. F. fc A. M., at Colfax, having been a member since 1155. For more than fifty years he was identified with the religious movement of this section as a leading member of the Methodist Episcopal church, which he joined in 1841. His estimable wife is also an earnest worker in that denomination and a teacher in the Sunday school. Mr. Mitchell served as steward of the church for forty years, was a member of the choir, treasurer of the Suuday school and a generous contributor to every department of religious enterprise.

Miss KrouL S«'iids a Flujr.

Durinp Miss Krout's residence in London she took several European tours with the London Polytechnic, an organization having for its purpose the education and uplifting of the young people. While at Luzerne, Switzerland, it was discovered that there was no American flag in the party, and Miss Kront thereupon promised to send them one for use on festive occasions when there were Americans present. Thursday she fulfilled her promise and forwarded a handsome Epecimen of the stars and stripes.

Surprise.

As Mrs. Kllen Hamilton, of near Darlington, is getting ready to move to the Sutton farm south of town the neighbors arranged to give her a pleasant surprise. To make the undertaking a success the children persuaded her to spend a few days with her son, Johu ishriver, of Tippicanoe county, whete she went last Wednesday, not knowing that when she returned the neighbors would bo in full possession of the place. The people began to arrive early Sunday morning with baskets well filled with good things, and by ten o'clock fifty-five people were waiting for Mrs. Hamilton, who arrived shortly after eleven. After hearty handshaking and friendly greetings, dinner was prepared and when ready was well disposed of by the guests who had become somewhat hungry by the long waiting. By the large number that were present Mrs Hamilton is well thought of in this vicinity. Her friends will be sorry to see her move away from,the old place where she haB been living BO long and been BO good to people, always ready to lend a helping hand in ca6e of sickness or need. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. John Shriver and children, Mr. and Mrs. Seem Coyner and children, Marion Hollowell and family, Grant Cook and family, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Endicott, Wm. Conn and wife, Joe Booher and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Mart Booher and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. John Booher, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Pittman, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Paddock, Mrs. John Hollowell. Mrs. James Dykes, Shade Cook, Ray Norris, Clint Hopkins, Misses Lulu and Hattie Pittman, Anna Holloway, Lina Booher, May Cook and Bertha Goff. All spent the time very agreeably and went away wishing that moving day would come oftener, that they could have more good things to eat.

At l) o'clock Tuesday morning at St. Bernards church, occurred the marriage of Miss Alice Layne, daughter of Patrick Lane, of Cherry Grove, to John C. Ferneding, of Indianapolis, Rev. Father CrosBin officiating the impressive Catholic Bermeony,being witnessed by the immediate friends and relatives. They were attended bv Mr Wm. Braun, of Indianapolis, and Miss Rosa Lane, a sister of the bride. The bride and bridesmaid were attired in a lovely traveling suit of blue, and the groom and groomsman wore the usual black. After the cermony they returned to the home of the bride's parents where a sumptious dinner was served.

Those present from a distance were P. W. Kennedy, wife and son, Mrs. Ferneding and daughter, Mr. W. Whitlock and Mr. John Brady, all of Indianapolis.

Mr. and Mrs. Ferneding left on the evening train for Indianapolis, where they will be at home to their many friends at 711. Buchanan street, after March 1.

A .Surprise.

While Ben Stout was boiling sugar water on last Monday he did not for one moment think that on that day he was 50 years old. It was a fine day for his good wife and daughter to make ready for the great surprise awaiting Ben. All day long the ladies baked cakes tfnd all day long Ben boiled sap. It was a fine time all around to prepare the good things to eat. The neighborhood for miles around was invited to the feast to take place about 8 p. m. Everything worked smoothly, the machinery beng carefully oiled. Ben did not smell a mice,nothing of the kind. Tom Weliever and his mother went up to pend the evening with Ben and as Ben said, to swap a few stories. Miss Elsie Stout played on the organ merely to make noise so Ben would not hear the racket of fifty vehicles coming up through the woods. After while the crowd got there—nearly an hundred of his fiiends, big and little—and then Ben dropped that it was his birthday. The kitchen was cleared, the

tableB

set and every thing good to eat was sooa in readiness, oysters, roast chicken, and cakes by the armload. Everybody had a good time and all were permitted to laugh as long and as loud as they wanted to without any interference. Benjamin Franklin Stout is a good Christian gentleman and everybody present wished him many more happy returns of the day. D. S. M.

Diamond Dyes are a wonderful help to economical dressing. These simple home dyes will color anything any color, and they make cloaks, stockings, dresses, feathers, laces, curtains, etc., look like new.

Many of the Diamond Dyes are made from specially prepared dyestuffs. and in no other way can home dyeing be done so simply satisfactorily.

They come in all colors, and the plain and explicit directions on the package make it easy for the most inexperienced to use them with success. Even a child can dye a rich, perfect color, if Diamond Dyes are used.

Do not risk your material with dyee that claim to color both cotton and wool with the same dye, for it is impossible to get satisfactory results with dyes of that character. In Diamond Dyes, there are special dyes for cotton and special dyes for wool, and they are all guaranteed to give satisfaction, if used according to directions.
