THE TALK OF THE CITY.

It Is o! Interest to Our Readers Be cause It Refers to Crawford** ville People.

It' stonioniug how pood news will spread. Froin every ward and street we hear our people talking about the workings or tbe little -iiqueror. Merit and honorable mSttee* /receive their just reward. So many cases are cropping up that it iB next to impossible to investigate them all, but we have taken a few in hands and give them publicly for the benefit of our readers, Our representative obtained the following statement of facts in a personal interview. They are true in every particular, and no stronger evidence can be obtained than home endorsement:

Mrs. William Thompson, of 101 west College street, says: "I had kidney complaint for some little time before I went to Moffett & Morgan's drugstore and got Doan's Kidney Pills. I had some backache but not very bad, my principal trouble being from other disorders that accompany kidisey complaint, and which everyone is familiar with who has it. Doan's Kidney Pills soon began to do me good, and in a short time I received so much benefit and relief that I forgot all about anything being wrong with me and even forgot to take the pillB. From this satisfactory result of their use in my case I am glad to recommend them at all times to anyone Buffering as I was."

latter company, which is the old Midland. Tbe injunction restrains the Midland trains from crossing the Big Four tfacks at Carbon, and cuts off that road's connection with the coal fields, stopping all traffic on this end of the line. In 1895 tbe Big Four granted right-of-way to the Midland, provided the Midland would erect interlocking switches at Carbon. This has uot been done by the defendant company."

STILL AFTER THEM.

George Richard*, of Tern Haute, Is Bound to Have Satisfaction From Someone.

George Richards, the Terre Haute drummer who sued J. B.White, of Lin den,is not satisfied yetaad wants blood from some source. In September, 1898, Richards, who was then traveling for a coal company, was arrested at Linden by J. W. McCorkle, the town mar shal, on a charge of having stolen a watch charm belonging to Mr. White. It was not found on him and he was wildly angry at the indignity offered him. He sued Mr. White for causing his arrest and was unable to make tbe case stick, BO he now enters Buit against Marshal McCorkle and his bondsmen, John Vyse and Henry B. Umlth. He alleges that McCorkle ar rested him and held him a prisoner for half an hour while he searched the person of the plaintiff without a search warrant. Mr. Richards demands damages in the sum of $1,000.

CENSUS ENUMERATORS

What Will Be Expected of the New Men Who Do This Work,

The act of March 3, 1899, under the provisions, of which the twelfth census of the United States is to be taken, provides for the appointment of supervisors of census, one or more to each state and territory, the District of Columbia, Alaska, and the Hawaiian Islands, to have general supervision within their respective districts of the enumeration to be made in June, 1900 One of the duties imposed by the census act upon these supervisors is the designation of suitable persons to be employed, with the consent of the director of the census, as enumerators within their respective districts. It is further provided that such persons shall be residents of the enumeration districts for which they may be appointed, and that they shall be selected 6olely with reference to fitness, and without reference to their political party affiliations.

The appointment of enumerators will ba made with reference to physical activity and to aptness, neatness and accuracy in writing and in the use of figures. The census requires active, energetic persons of good address and readineBS with the pen. Only such can do the .work with satisfaction to tbe government or profit to themselves. IS&ch person seeking appointment as census enumerator must make a written application to the supervisor for the district of which a resident, giving christian name and surname in full whether a citizen of the United States or not present legal residence, sex and color, age, place of birth, the principal facts of education and of professional or business experience, including a statement of all national, state, county or municipal offices held at any time nature of present occupation, if any previous experience in census work, physical condition, and knowledge of English or other languages. This application must be made in the handwriting of the applicant throughout, and must be certified to as such.

The enumeration required by the census act will begin on the first day of June, 1900, and must be completed within two weeks in all cities for which 8,000 inhabitants or more were reported in 1890, and in all other districts on or before the first day of July next thereafter.

It will be necessary for each enumerator, before entering upon his duties, to receive a commission, under the

S. and it cured mm completely.^ind 1 am happy to say that I feel as well as I ever did in my life."

Mr. J. W. Loving, of Colquitt, Ga., says: "For eighteen years suffered tortures from a fiery eruption on my skin. 1 tried almost every known remedy, but they failed one by one, and I was told that my age, which is sixty-six, was against me, and that I could never hope to be well again. I finally took S. S. S., and it cleansed my blood thoroughly, and now I am in perfect health."

CHANCE FOR MACE TOWNSLEY

The Twentieth Century Will Have Two Dozen Leap Years.

Scientific American: The nineteenth century closes with the year 1900. Immediately after midnight, therefore, of Dec. 31, 1900, is when the twentieth century begins. In other words, it begins with the first second of the first hour of the first day of January, 1901.

The twentieth century will open on a Tuesday and close on a Sunday. It will have the greatest number of leap years possible for a century—twentyfour. The year 1904 will be the first one, then every fourth year after that to and including the year 3,000. February will three times have five Sundays—in 1920, 1948, and 1976.

The twentieth century will contain 36,525 days, which lacks butone day of being exactly 5,218 weeks. The middle day of the century will be Jan. 1, 1951.

Several announcements are made of changes to be inaugurated with the opening of the new century. The first of importance is that Russia will adopt th§ Gregorian calendar. This will be done by omitting thirteen dayB, the amount of error that will have accumulated after the close of February, 1900. The Russians will then write Jan. 1,1901, instead of Dec. 19, 1900. or rather, instead of both, according to the dual system now in vogue in that country and in Greece. The other important announcement ia that it is not at all unlikely that the astronomical day, which now begins at noon of the civil day, will begin with the civil day, at midnight. The present method of having the astronomical day to begin twelve hours after the beginning of the civil day is apt to be confusing. On the other hand, to have the former begin at midnight, just when astronomers are often busiest, will be to them somewhat inconvenient.

Uot the Worst of It.

C. W. Neal, chief clerk of the insurance department of the state, gave out the information that fourteen fire insurance companies, doing business in this state, have paid out in the aggregate for losses entailed and adjusted from January 1 to July 1, $58,711.10 more than they received in premiums for the same period. Large fires at Terre Haute, Logansport and other cities were the c&use of this ill luck.

Mr. Neal says this 1B an unusual occurrence. It is not uncommon, he says, for three or four companies to pay out in the aggregate 815,000 or $20,000 more than they have collected, but he does not recall so many as fourteen companies having paid out so much. The latter half of last year only one company paid out in losses more than it had received in premiums.

Death of Samuel Vail.

Samuel Vail, an old and honored citizen of the county, died very suddenly of heart disease last Saturday at Li is home two miles north of New Ross. He leaves a wife and a family of grown children. Mr. Vail weighed over 350 pounds and was one of the largest men in the county. He was in Crawfordsville a few days ago and then seemed in his usual health, He was an, ardent Republican and his influence will be missed by the party in Walnut township.

Buried.

The body of James Leffew was taken to Carver & Bobbin's undertaking establishment after his death last week and Saturday it was buried at the expense of the townBhip. There were no funeral services over the body of the unfortunate young man.

CLAIMS TWO THOUSAND.

That is the Number of Deaths Annually Dae to Diphtheria In Indiana.

Diphtheria is killing 2,000 children in Indiana every year, and afflicting 18,000 more, says Dr. Hurty, of the state board of health, yet people go on in their ignorance spreading the disease, and laughing at the men of science when they tell,them to take precautions. Dr. Hurty and his associates despite the fact that they are called cranks and fools, are after the deadly dise&se with a very Bharp stick, but they have a still sharper one for the people who are helping to epread the malady and putting obstacles in the way of the board's work.

Dr. Hurty says that, compared with diphtheria, smallpox is a mere bagatelle, a plaything, yet people persist in living in ignorance of the danger threatening their children In some places they try to prevent the disease by prohibiting the burning of leaves, yet physicians say that they might as well try to produce elephants as diphtheria by burning leaves, Diphtheria comes from a specific germ, and if the burning of leaves has any effect at all it is as a disinfectant.

Only One Candidate.

Mr. Ralph Kane, of Noblesville, in an interview in the Indianapolis Sentinel, says: "We ^Republicans are pretty much mixed up politically in our district. We have in Hamilton county Beveral candidates for the congressional nomination, but when the time comes there will be only one candidate, and heJCharles Land is. Inasmuch as Hamilton county iB the one always reliable Republican county in the district it is believed that it could name the candidate were it possible to unite on any good man, but a conference which was held some time ago to unite on one man failed. "The talk among Democrats some time since was favorable to the nomination of Capt. D. F. Allen, but he has gone off to the war toigflll a military position and I do not know what effect that will have on the situation. Joe Cheadle is, of course, talked of some, but he could not carry the democracy in our county and he would have trouble in Tipton county.

Couldn't Agree.

The county commissioners met on Saturday to make contracts for the heating and lighting of the court house. They adjourned, however, without making contracts for either and the matter will probably not be Bettled before the November meeting. The Natural Gas Company had bide for both the heating and the lighting, and the Water & Light Company htfd in a fair bid for the lighting. The commissioners are. not disposed to light the house with natural gas this coming year as there has been much complaint of it as a light giver. They are also adverse to giving the Natural Gas Company a contract for the heating unlesB it will insure that the house will be heated. The company has thus far refused to do this. The old contract for heating exoired on October 1 and the gas is now being used without a contract of any kind. There is no danger of the supply being cut off, however.

DCBING the winter of 1897 Mr. James Reed, one of the leading citizens and merchants of day, Clay Co., W. Va struck his leg against a cake of ice in such a manner as to bruise it severely. It beeame very much swollen and pained him so badly that be could not walk without the aid of crutches. He was treated by physician's, also used several kinds of liniment and two and a half gallons of whisky in bathing it, but nothing gave any relief until he began using Chamberlain's Pain Balm. This brought almost a complete cure in a week's time and he believes that had he not used this remedy his leg would have had to be amputated. Pain Balm is unequaled for

The Clover Leaf ID Trouble.

Tbe Clover Leaf railroad company is the most troublesome and assuming corporation that does bUBiness in Montgomery county and rides rough Bhod wherever it can. The people of Wingate are up in arms against it and not without good cause. The road is maintaining, right in the heart of town and blockading one of the streets, a foul* smelling stock pen. This is within fourteen feet of tbs house of one man and comparatively close to the houses of others. The railroad fellows flood it with water periodically in order to make a good wallow for the hogs, and in warm weather the stench iB perceptible for half a mile around.
