Meteor Showers.
Two great meteor showers are on the celestial programme for next month. The first will occur about Nov. 13, and is a spectacle that all will want to see. It occurs but three times in a century and is a magificent sight. Scientists everywhere are preparing to take observations. If the sky is clear you may witness a grand display. The other great shower will take place ou the night of November 29.
Wrought Dough.
Parks Martin, the Democratic state chairman, was in the city last week, and it is stated that he brought here SI,500 to be lis. in Montgomery county on election day. The Indianapolis News last Thursday stated that the money recently collected by Coin Harvey is to be used for the most part in Indiana and that a big wad was to be circulated in this district. It was doubtless a part of the Harvey fund that Martin brought here.
A Fine Score.
The best bowling score ever made in Crawfordsville was made last Thursday at Ben Hastings' Washington street alley when Simon Spratt made the phenomenal score of 267. He made strikes in every inning except the fifth, when he made, a upare. In the tenth inning with his two extra shots he made nine points, thus giving him a total of 267. His scor.j stood as follows through the game: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Spratt.30 69 79 99 129 169 189 219 248 267
A Silly Fake.
A local Democratic paper publishes a statement to the effect that Thomas E. Bowles, formerly of this county, presided a few evenings ago at a Democratic meeting. THE JOURNAL was satisfied that this was absolutely false as it had but recently heard from Mr. Bowles and besides knew him to be no such a man as was represented. Accordingly Noblesville was telephoned l&Bt Thursday and it was ascertained that Mr. Bowles not only never presided at a Democratic meeting but that he is working hard in Hamilton coun ty for the success of the Republican ticket. Campaign lying is now in full blast.
Terribly Injured.
Andrew Plunkett, sr., who was hurt in an accident with a team of horses last Thursday, id in a serious con dition and is suffering severely. Mr Plunkett was talking with a neighbor near his home in Morningside and bad left his team of horses, hitched to a hay rigging, standing untied. The team started up and Mr. Plunkett in trying to stop them was caught between gate post and the wagon and squeezed till for a time it was feared that he could not recover. His chest was caved in in a frightful manner an three ribs were broken loose from his spine. Mr. Plunkett is CO years old and this in a measure militates hi* speedy recovery, but with good nurs ing his friends hope to see him rcover.
IIow the District 11 »g YoteilIn answer to a number of querier, &s to the vote of this congressional. dis trict in past elections, We give the re suit since and including the voar 1890 The districft as it is now composed has been in existeuee only during oua ele tion, but in 1890 the khiiip countiesBoone, Carroll, Ciinlon, Montgomer' Fountain, Hamilton aud Tiptou—gave a Republican plurality of 118. In 1892 the counties cast 20,219 Republican votes and 19,143 Democratic votes, Republican plurality of 1,076. The landslide of 1894 gave the Republicans 23.045 and the Democrats 19,388, a Republican plurality of 3,657. Two years ago the district gave Mr. Landis 23,616 and Mr. Cheadle 23,367, a plurality 249 for Mr. Landis. It can be seen this that there is a wide variation the pluralities in the district, but the Republicans have always bad the best of it.

NEW MARKET SCHOOL.
The Dedicatory Exercises of the New Mar
ket School llouHe.
The dedication exerciscs of the New Market school house were held Sunday afternoon. The halls had been beautified with flags and bunting, and chairs arranged in the lower hall, where the exercises were held. The building was crowded with people who had come to see and hear what was to be seen and heard. The services were in charge of R. G. Crist, and after the opening hymn was sung, which was "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name," Mr. Crist made some appropriate remarks concerning the cause of the gathering and matters pertaining to the interest of the school and people. J. N. Brittoa read a passage from the Bible and Rev. Hugh McCalip offered prayer. The hymn "America" was then sung with much enthusiasm and Mr. Crist introduced the Rev. Mr. Wallace E Tharp, pastor of tbe Christian church of this city, who made the dedicatory address. His ideas were vividly expressed by wordB which brought conviction to his hearers. He admonished the people to love God and fellow man, shun that which is evil and cleave to that which is good, and to carefully train the child in the way which he should go. Tbe teacher has the pupij. five days in tho week, while the pastor has but one day in the week in which he demands absolute attention therefore the teacher has a very important part in the development of the child. He considered the school house the handmaiden of the church, and hoped that much good would follow the opening of the school. The remarks of Mr. Tharp should have been heard by everyone. His hearers were highly entertained. At the close of tho address of Mr. Tharp, Mr. Crist, on behalf of a number of patrons and friendB of the school, presented the trustee, Sam D. Symmes, with an elegant upholstered chair, aB an appreciation of his unfaltering work in bringing to a successful termination the work undertaken, which has made it possible for the people to meet and dedicate a new school house. The trustee thanked the people for the present and hoped that, now that the house was completed, the people would all unite in helping to aid the teachers in making the education of the children the crowning success of the enterprise.
Prof. Ivenaston, of the Crawfordsville public schools, w&b then introduced and made a talk full of good words, well meaning, and hopes for tho success of the school. He, too, thought the schools were the hope and salvation of our country, and it was the bounden duty of all good citizens to heartily support sucn institutions. This closed the exercises and the people, after inspecting the school house, went home feeling that much good had been done by holding the exercises and that more good was yet to be done in the education of the children.
The new school building iB a twestory structure with six rooms, halls and cloak rooms. It is heated with two furnaces, and there are six windows in eacn room, which furnishes an abundance of light. In the basement there are two furnace rooms, two play rooms and two halls, all with cement floors. The two acres in the school yard have been properly graded, and every convenience has been supplied for the building to make it a model school house and a model school. The expense of the building will be borne by the townships of Union, Brown and Scott, the trustees of the townships of Brown and Scott giving 81,000 each, and thus securing special school privileges to the graduu&teB of the common school branches from their respective townships.
The residents of New Market and school districe are very thankful to all who have contributed in any way whatever toward tho means which haB made it possible to dedicate a new school house and now they will work for the success of the school.
The. completion of a new school buildaig at New Market makes a turning point in the educational matters in the township schools of Montgomery county, aud with the now school houses erected this year in the townt-bips of Ripley, Sugar Creek, Franklin, Wayne and Coal Creek, with the one to be erected next year at New Ross, and the thorough overhauling of the other school buildings in many of the townships, proves that the present trustees are alive to the demands y.nd needs of the present educational de-t itnds for pnpils. In Uniou township there have been ereut&d during tbe p&st four years six bricK school houses, and all the other school houses have been repaired and made more convenient and attractive for tho pupils, und it is also more or less the case in the other townships. Time makes changes and the person who attempts to interfere with the wheels of progress in any enterprise, will soon find that progress has made such strides that he is left sitting upon a back seat. The masses of Montgomery county believe in progress and rojoice in tbe work accomplished by all worthy undertakings.

JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL.
The Inmate* of the Soldiers' Home at Marion Will he Allowed to A'ote.
Members of the Marion branch of the national soldiers' home are rejoicing over the late decision of the supreme court of Indiana which will permit them to vote at the coming election. The attempt on the part of the Democrats of Grant county, backed by the Btate Democratic central committee, to disfranchise the soldiers by issuing a writ of mandamus to compel the commissioners of Grant couuty to redistrict the voting precincts of Center township eliminatiug the soldiers' home grounds, has created much feeling at the home and in Grant county. Tuesday the supreme court postponed the hearing of the oral argument indefinitely, which means that the case will not be heard until after the election. John
Kersey, the Democratic
candidate for judge of the Grant county circuit court, ihas been pushing the case to a decision, while it has been ably defended by H. J. Paulins, Republican candidate for judge. The soldiers' home contains 2,200 votes.
I^aPearl'H Kmbarra*sment.
Danville (111.) Commercial: The LaPearl show was brought home last night, arriving from Arkansas. Just about the time it was approaching the city, judgments were being taken by confession in the circuit court for claims amounting to §10,472.85. They were in favor of Charles Hecht, trustee, representing Danville creditors Executions on these judgments were taken about 6 o'clock last ni^ht. This morning Deputy Sheriff Whitlock went out to the winter quarters, where tne show was transferred during tbe night, and took charge. He is there now in possession.
Mr. LaPearl has had a varied season this year. In the spring he had some bad weather, but did a fair business. The middle of the summer saw him doing phenomenal business, and seemingly on the high road to success and wealth. Then he entered on a tour of the lakes, traveling by boat. This promised to b) banner trip, but rough weather set in and such storms raged that it was impossible to make all the towns, and several days were lost. For the last four weeks the show has encountered nothing but rain, in many places not being able to unload. But with all this bad luck, Mr. LaPearl is understood to have paid off more than 815,000 indebtedness in Danville. With a reasonable amount of good luck he would have been able to clean up everything.
Mr. LaPearl not only has a good show but he has a host of friends and supporters, all of whom regret his present embarrassment. Efforts will be made to adjust his affairs so that he wiii be able to resume the road next soring, and continue along the good lines of the past.
For the IMiiintltV.
The damage suit of Capt. Neft", of Ladoga, against the Monon railroad, came to an end Saturday in tbe circuit court. Captain Nell was hurt in a wreck at, Bloomington some months ago nnd sued for S3,000 damages. The road offered to compromise with him for 81,000, but be held out for S3,000. which the road refused to pay. The case went to the jury at 11:30 last Saturday and at 2:30 in the afternoon they announced that they had found for the plaintiff, giving him 83,000. The case will probably be appealed by the railroad as there was considerable conflicting evidence by the medical experts.
Divorce
William Donley, of Madison township, has sued for a divorce from his wife, Mary Donley. He alleged all sorts of things against her.
