GENERAL ^HARRISON in his youth doubtless enjoyed the prestige that came of his connection with General William Henry Harrison, but foi\the future William Henry Harrison's greatest distinction will be his connection with Benjamin Harrison, a man the state is made by agreementbetween much greater in every way than any of the teacher audjthe township trustee.

Tuesday- Four Russians acquitted of a brutal murder. Wednesday—June Lee fatally stabbed by a jealous lover in a wine room.
GKNICRAL HARRISON proved by his life that the Christian gentleman can .score the greatest political success without divorcing himself from his religion. A man of his intellectual force and power would probably have won without any deep religious convictions, but nut in the overmastering manner that Harrison won. General Harrison's religion was one of his strong points and its tenets often sustan.ed and guided him in most trying times.
ilK N.I A .VI HARRISON By the death of General Benjamin Harrison, Indiana loses her most able and distinguished statesman. Wholly unemotional Mr. Harrison was possessed of a broad mentality, a judicial perception, a forceful energy, and a puritanical honesty that made him a power in the land and in the world. Totally lacking in those attributes calculated to win for him the loving ati'ec-

eration of many. In brief he made his way to the heights by what he did rather than by a magnetic personality and his death takes from us one of the very few whose places will not soon be filled.
IXCIIKASK IN MONI.V,
The director of the mint will say in his annual report that there has been an increase of more than 100 per cent in the money of the world within one generation. Nearly the whole of this increase is in metallic money and much the larger proportion is in gold.
The total stock reported in 1873 was about 54,000,000,000, o" which more than half was in paper money not fully covered by metallic reserves. The situation at the beginning of 1900 showed a total monetary stock of about $11,00(^,000.000, of which only little more than one-fourth was in uncovered paper money.
Director Roberts finds that while the total money supply of the world has increased about $7,000,000,000, the increase in gold money since 1873 has been about $3,600,000,000, in silver about $2,750,000,000, and in uncovered paper only about $650,000,000.

President Will Attend.
Washington, March 14.—President McKinley will ailend the funeral of Ceuerai Harrison, lie will leave here probably tonight, although the exact lime of departure has not been determined delinitel.v. accompanied by Mrs. Bit1 Kin ley and Secretary Cortleyou. It is not expected that any of the members of the cabinet will go. Although expecled. the death of General Harrison was a disliiict shock to the presl•dent, the two men having seen much of each other while the former was in the executive oflice. The president sent a telegram of condolence to Mrs.
Harrison last evening
lieniainiiit llv-President's Tribute. Princeton. N. .1., .March 1-1.—Former President Cleveland last night made he following statement, on the death on former President Harrison: "I am exceedingly moved by the sad intelligence of Mr. Harrison's death, for, notwithstanding the lale discouraging reports of his condition. I hoped his life might yet he spared. Not. one of our countrymen should for a moment fail to realize the services which have been performed in their behalf by the distinguished dead. In high public otlice he was guided by patriotism and devotiou to duty, often at the sacrifice of temporary popularity, and in private station his influence and example were always in the direction of decency and good citizenship. Such a career and the incidents related it should leave a deep and useful impression upon every section of our national life."

Mr. and Mrs. John H. Grimes, of the city, were at the bedside of their mother Mrs. Rachel Grimes, during her sickness and death.
The sick this wees are Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Clark, John Bowerman's family, Hallie Smith, the little son of Mr. Payton, Aaron Walters and Henry Ham. They are all convalescing. Miss Goldie Hancock is also slightly improved. Ed Truax is again seen about town.
Mrs. Rachel Grimes, an aged and greatly respected lady, peacefully passed away at her home in Alamo Friday, March 8th. She was ill only a few days, pneumonia being immediate cause of her death. She leaves four sons, John II., Joseph, George and Clinton, two daughters having died early in life. The funeral was held'at the Lutheran church near Wallace. Interment in the cemetery at that place.
Miss Patience Malinda Jell'eries was born near Roachdale, Putnam county, Indiana, January 12, 1877, and died near Alamo March 6, 1901, aged 24 years, 1 month and 24 days. She was the second child of Robert D. and Harriet P. Jefl'eries. Her parents, two sisters, Prudence and Ina, and brother, Charles C., survive her, a sister, Irene Veva, having preceded her to the grave in 1888. A descendent of one of the oldest and best families in the state, whose numbers are numerous in both Putnam and Montgomery counties. The individual character of Patience was a brilliant, example for the young people of the community in which she resided. I-Ier quiet gentle manners and thoughtful consideration for the welfare of others, won for her friends without number. While her own name was fully typified in the attentive care given to every household duty. A faithful member of the Daughters of llobekah, she was holding the position of treasurer in that order at the time of her death Stricken down in the bright bloom of womanhood when life's morning was fairest. How fully are mourning relatives and friends made to realize that the ''King of Shadows loves a shining mark" when we stand in the presence of death and witness the closing of a noble and blameless life. We feel that such are all too few and with reverence we salute its memory. The funeral was held here the 8th under the auspices of the Universalist denomination, she being a believer in the final redemption of the human race. The great concourse of people from far and near was ample evidence of the esteem in which the deceased was held.
There is 110 death. The leaves may fall, And Dowers may fade, and pass away /They only wait through wintry hours,
The coining of May clay.
And ever near
11s,
though unseen,
Those dear immortal spirits tread.

-For all the boundless universe ls life- there is no death
The lloral decorations were profuse and costly, many of them from Crawfordsville ai.d Lafayette friends. The pall bearers selected before her death were: Clayton and Leslie Elmore, Ivan and Kverett Ham. Andrew Morrison, and Mark Truax. Interment took place at achdale.
A few weeks ago the Rev, America Connor, pastor of the New Market Christian church, was called on to deliver his lecture widely known as the most masterful piece of oratory and deep thought for morality and the good of humanity. He came although the evening was very disagreeable. Admittance was the small sum of 10 cents, and the crowd was so ridiculously small that he gave it up, although he spoKe long enough to convince those preseut that it was grand. Now why could not the house have been filled with an appreciative audience from the numerous young people of the town and coirotry. In a few evenings after this there svas a dance at the hall and the crowd was simply a cru.~h, but not of the elite of this place or any other place. That passed away without anything being said for or against it, but Thursday evening two weeks ago, there was another dance at the hall, and if all reports are true, whiskey llowed pretty freely, whiuher from local parties or from other places. At any rate several fellows were seen turning up the bottles at the door, and the next day a fine lot of bottles were found around the place. A public dance hall is on an equality with a saloon. In fact they are partners in making converts for the devil. To the sober minded people who listened to the stamping, loud calling and boistrous laughter lloating out through the doors and windows of the hall sounded coarse and cruel, knowing that the dead body of one of our kindest and fairest girls was then lying in her home not far away surrounded by her weeping parents, sisters and brothers, and sympathizing friends. And to those brothers and sisters of the Rebekah order who were assisting in the revelry almost in sight of the home of their dead sister and her grieving family, seems harsh indeed. Surely the Rebekah order does not tolerate such actions, and the better part of the community does not tolerate the public dance and its mixed followers. The ministers fill our church pulpits almost every Sunday and tell the consequences of attending those places: of the evils they bring in the community how the young and innocent are ruined by the associations of such a place. It surely will take something more forceable. to stop it than Bible words, and that, perhaps, will be a pistol shot or a knife through the heart of a victim of a drunken tough, then it will stop.

Some of our farmer friends are denouncing the horse sale as conducted here last week by Greg? Johnston and others. These sales differ from the averaee country sale in two particulars, first in being cash or its equivalent second, that each and every horse is sold on a guarantee and the owner stands for the guaranty. For instance, at this last sale Fred Thompson consigned a white mare 10 years old, cramps occasionally in hind legs and good worker. Such is the description on the clerk's book. She is knocked off to Albert Mullen for $36. Mr. Mullen pays the money and takes the mare: he finds that in addition to cramps her wind is bad. He returns the mare and gets his $36 all back and ret urns borne sat isfied. and Thompson has his mare. Had Thompson made a public, sale at home the auctioneer could give all the good qualities the mare. She would in all probability have brought twice the sum and no redress for the buyer.
