Death of John Wiilson.

John Watson, of Areola, Ills., died Sunday morning at the home of his sister, Mrs. Mary Martin, near Whitesville. He and his wife were there on a visit, and he was taken with grip over a week ago. The remains were taken back to his home for burial. Mr. Watson's first wife was the daughter of Ken Symtnes, of Symmes' Corner, Butler county, Ohio.

Shafer-Mtles.

A very quiet but pleasant wedding took place at the residence of Rev. H. McCalip, near New Market, on Thursday, Jan, l'J, at 2 o'clock p. m., Mr. Arley Shafer and Miss Lena Leota Miles being the contracting parties. Only the groomsman and bridesmaid and a few select friends were present. The parties are favorably known and will have the best wishes of their ruiny friends. XX

Gool for the Grip.

Parson Hicks has dished up the following weather menu for the declining days of January: "About the 20th is another storm period, in which look for a change to warmer with more rain and snow, followed again by very cold to about the 33rd. Storm conditions will return about 24th to 26th, followed by renewed cold up to 29th. The month will end during the prevalence of a regular storm period, with rain and 6now in many sections."

To the Poor Farm.

The Greenlee boy, who has given the police and truant officer so much trouble has been taken to the poor farm where he is to remain confined until he is old enough to send to the penitentiary, in case he should hereafter break the law. He does not seem to have any degree of knowledge that he has done anything wrong when he takes hrrses, whips, caps, etc., and while he does not deny doing the acts, it seems as though he has no remorse at all for his deeds. The boy IB to be pittied for his seeming utter lack of being able to determine right from wrong.

A SnrpriHe liuuer.

Jan. 20 was the GfSth birthday ofMrs Martha Mclntire, of west Market street, aud she will long remember the anniversary as one of the most pleasant (. her life. About 11 o'clock some seventy-live oreighty of her old friends and neighbors, most of them from the Wesley neighborhood, arrived, unheralded, at her residence and came with baskets which bulged with the good things of the larder. They took possession of the home and prepared a dinner fit for the kings of earth. In the words of the old chronicler of such functions "the tableB simply groaned uuder the weight of good things" and if those who partook did not do the same at night it was because the food was too elegantly prepared to admit of such a thing and not because everyone present did not do more than justice to the delicacies. Mrs. Mclntire was greatly affected by the kindness of her friends and the day was a joyful one to her as it was, indeed, to all who were so fortunate as to be present.

The All-l'revalont,

New York Sun: Zip! And the Grip Has got its nip On your neck, And you're a wreck You cough Your head and your heels oil', And your arms and your legs oft, And your hands and your feet off, And fitill you cough And your remains Are full of aches and pains, You take no pleasure in your friends, And all the ends Thou aim'st at are the Grip's. From Maine to California, From the mountains to the Eea The old Bweet song Has all gone wrong And the chorus is misery. Oh, for a ray of sunshine, Oh, for a spot of blue a In the leaden sky

To tickle the eye And pull our lives through. Say, Grip. Won't you get onto our tip And skip? Or must we say In a vigorus way, "D—n!" and "d—n!"' again, And the whole land Join in a grand "Amen"?

Will ISreak Out Soou in the Legislature, It is Thought.

Indianapolis Sentinel: There are evidences that the. warfare between state and non-state educational institutions is going to break out as fiercely this session as during the bession two years ac-o. There are bafore the legislature two bills embodying the legislation that the non-state people are going to try to get through. These bills are identical. The 6enate bill was introduced by Senator Hogato and is in the hands of the committee on education which will hold its first meeting to consider it to-morrow night. Delegations of state and non-state people are expected to attend and altogether the session promises to be a very lively one. The house bill was introduced by Representative lirown and is in the hands of the committee on education, which is disposed to await the action of the senate committee before considering it.

These bills provide for a reorganization of the state board of education by removing the governor and the heads of the three slate institutions from the board and making the board consist of state superintendents of schools of the three largest cities in the state and three members to be appointed by the governor, one of whom shall be a county superintendent of schools.

This bill, as will be seen, removes the state representation entirely from the board and gives the governor the power to appoint the friends of either side as the three members to be selected by him, while at the same time it deprives him from membership.

Representative Brown said yesterday: "If the bill that Senator Hogate and I have introduced in the two branches does not pass some other bill re-organizing the state beard will. My bill is a good one and ought to pass. The temper of the legislature is In favor of making some change."

Lieut-Gov. Haggard views are exactly opposite: He said yesterday that the temper of the senate, so far as he had been able to observe, is decidedly in favor-of keeping sectarianism entirely out of the 6tate school system. People who were crying in favor of denominational representation would hold up their hands in horror, he baid if it were proposed to make the head of Notre Dame a member of the state board of education, and yet, he said, the head of Notre Dame has just as much right to be a member of the board as the head of any Methodist or any other denominational institution. "I shall not take any hand in the fight myself," he said, "but I believe that is the right WPV of looking at it."

Obltmiry.

Southwestern Christian Advoeatc: Rev. A. J. Irons, son of James and Julia Irons, was born near Greenfield, Highland county, Ohio, January 7, 1852. Departed this life January 15, 1899, at his home in Winfield, aged 4G years, 11 months and 7 days. In 1852 his parents removed to Montgomery county, Indiana, where he grew to manhood, working on his father's farm, and where ho received his education in the country schools except one short term at Stockwell academy and one year at DePauw University. He then engaged in merchandising, but gave it up on account of failing health. Being a strong advocate of temperance he spent some time in the field as a lecturer. He was joined in marriage to Jennie Kellenberger, of Dayton, Indiana, Sept. 1, 1875. To this union were born three children, Schuyler A., Pearl and Efiie A., little Efiie dying in infancy. In the spring of 1883 they removed from Montgomery county, Indiana, to Woodson county, Kansas, where he lived upon a farm near Yates Center, and where he responded to the call to preach. During his ministry, which was much interfered with on account of poor health, he filled the following appointments: Reece, Santa Fa, Liberal, El Reno, Dexter and Halowell. He was converted when but 7 years old aud one of the characteristics of his life has been to scatter the rays of the sunshine of dove. He has two surviving brothers and two sisters in Indiana and one brother and sister in Iowa. T. R. Irons, of Iowa, who was present at the funeral services, arrived in Winfield about three hourB after his brother's death. His parents and one sister are dead, and thus we are gathered home "one by one" at the bidding of our Heavenly Father.

To Cuba.

Capt. and Mrs.W.T. May left Sunday night for Savannah, Ga. Capt. May is ordered to Nuevitas, a seaport in the province of Puerto Principe, and it may be that Mrs. May will not accompany him. They will ascertain on reaching Savannah what conditions prevail at Nuevitas and will then determine the question of Mrs. May going.

Against Bucket-Shops.

Senator Ryan, of Allen county, has introduced an anti-bucket-shop bill similar to the Illinois law, under which the Chicago bucket-shops were all closed. It is in throe sections, which define the offenses of gambling in grain and stocks, the duties of judges and prosecuting attorneys. The penalty for violation of the act as a heavy fine and imprisonment.

A Plume of Proposed Legislation.

To the Editor of the Journal. The new township bill as proposed has a clause concerning the poor which is not generally known to be in it. It is in the middle of section 4, and is to the effect that a person who has frequently received aid from the township for two years shall not thereafter receive any more aid unless he goes to the poor farm. Thus, if a widow with three children, who is now receiving aid in groceries, rent, fuel, etc., to the amount of 812 per month from the township, and has been for two years, and with this aid has managed to keep her family together, shall be cut off from such aid, and if she can't get along, then she must be sent to the poor house, and the children to the Orphans' Home. The expense to keep this family this way will be 551/50 per week for the woman, or $6 per month: and 25 cents per day for each of the three children at the Orphans' Home, which would amount to $5 25 per week for the three children, or S21 per month. Thus it will be seen that it would cost S27 per month to separate the family and keep the woman at the poor house and the three children at the Orphans' Home, instead of the S12 per month as now given by the township. This part of the measure is upon the theory that some persons if refused uid would get along in some manner to keep from going'to the poor house. This will be true, still there are many instances where there" are widows with from three to six .children, who could not hold her little ones together under any circumstances, and the seoaration as demanded by the bill would cost over twice the sum to the taxpayers as it does now. The .only thing in the favor of such a^change in regard to tde cost, would be that thei county would bear the expense incurred in separating the family, while the township alone pays it now. A township trustee has said that he favors the law for many cases, but that the separation of a widowed mother from her children and the breaking of family ties is a serious matter to contemplate and much more so to do. To judge this matter in the right light a man should look at his own family, and think if he was dead his wife and children shall be forced to separate because the wife is unable to earn enough money to keep the wolf from the door.

The trustees will be forced by the bill to refuse aid to all who have been aided frequently during the past two years, and the big majority of those now aided in Union township would be cut off entirely when the law goes into effect, and if they could not get along, as many of them could not, then the grown persons must go to the poor farm and their children to the Orphans' Home. There will be no other way to do, unless the trustee shall pay for the aid out of his own pocket. The new bill makes no exceptions whatever, but says that the trustee shall report to the township board the names of the persons as have habitually received public aid and "if it shall appear from such report that any person has required such aid at frequent intervals in two or more consecutive years, such person shall be regarded as of the permanent poor of the township, to be aided only in the county asylum, and no township levy shall be made for the aid of such person by the trustee." The trustees will be obliged by law to enforce this provision, without any exceptions, circumstances or conditions whatsoever, and all persons who have now been receiving aid "frequently" for two years had better begin to prepare for the coming change, and the county commissioners prepare for an increase at the county asylum and Orphans' Home.
