MAC ARTHUR.

'i be aluive dispatch, as well as other informal mil received concerning tho frauds, leave consideratile dotibi as to the exact character of these alleged peculations. (.'ciieral .MacArthur speaks nl' "sales."' These sales consist ol savings by tlie soldiers oil the renuJai- rations issued, which they are allowed lo dispose ol' for (heir own bcnelit. (lenorally lie savings are made a company mailer and are disposed of i:i Iuilk to the highest, bidder. They may be returned to the commissary department and bought in by the government at cost price, but mere is no reason why they shou'd uot be sold elsewhere if the manage', of the company should so desire. As army rations do not pay „lhe usual duty imposed on similar goods used for private constmipt ion, the soldiers could make quite a profit on their savings if tney were of considerable amount. Sales from commissary stores, noi ineiuding the regular ration, are made to ollicers and men, but only upon a ceri llicate or declaration that they are for the personal use of the purchaser. It is said thai no great amount ol such sales could be used lj any person or persons without detection. ofiicers or men purchasing such stores and reselling' (hem would bo guiltj of violation the army regulations and would be subject to court martial. As to the other savours they are upon the regular rations issued to each company. They might be in Hour. meal, sugar m- any number of staple articles included in the ration. Tne money procured from the sale of such savings is usually devoted to t.lie purchase of such supplies as are no! included iii the ration and many delicacies and varieties of food are thus secured by ihe men in garrison or camp.

Albert Patricks DoPen'se In Murder or William Kiev. Now iork. April •!.—Charles I\ Jones, who was tho valet-secretary to William Marsh Rice, the aged urU'onaire, who, aocord'iig to Jones' oou'es .sion Tuesday, Mas murdered by tho use of chloroform in September last, finished his testimony yesterday on direct elimination in tin! proceeding* before Justice Jerome, charging Albert T. Patrick with murder.

Patrick's defense will be a gOLeral denial. It will not IK revealed in detail until the actual murder trial takes place, which will probably not he tmlil October nest. Jones, according lo defense, was tho arch conspirator, an.J Patrick was only the innocent tool of the valet. The greatest stress will be laid upon the fact by the defense tint Jones is a self-confessed perjurer an 1 that consequence his testimony and confession should obtain no credence

Our home telephone company at this place has finally succeeded in giving their many patrons free rates to Crawfordsville. or at least will do so as soon as they can build the line, which will be in a couple of weeks. This is as it should be and brings our county seat ten miles nearer to us. and our toll rates to the city will hereafter pay our 'phone bills, and the company will be amply repaid by new "phones, as orders are already coming in. This to the patrons is the best yet as our 'phones to be of practical use to us must go where we have business and not toa corn lield.

When the Inskeep people were here a few week ago they made many friends and among them was a young lady with stage ability, who, in talking to one of them over the 'phone at Mace, asked in a joke if they needed another actor, and if so would they give her the place. Yes she could have the place. She answered meet me in Crawfordsville Saturday, as I will hare to run oil from home. There the thing would have ended had it not been that it is customary for all on the line to listen. Now as the young lady is quite popular and justly so, many of her frsends were at tbe depot to see her off, as she did go to Crawfordsville on that day, but had entirely forgotten the run away part of it, and could but wonder at the rubbernecks here and at Garfield that met her gaze, and not until some days after did she learn the true facts and that she was the hero of the whole telephone line. She now says she is done with the telephone on run a ways.

tAv'IIClll^C"""No store can permanently succeed by giving one jot less than full or complete value for the money spent. Circumstances sometimes make it quite possible to give more than a fair exchange, but no circumstances or combination of circumstances should ever tempt a store to give less than a just equivalent. Preaching principles is one thing and practicing them is another. "We invite you to watch us carefully and see for yourself how closely our practice follows our preaching. Fair pricing is a basic principle in our store. If our prices are reasonable they are bound to be right. If our merchandise is right then it's bound to be reasonably priced. The poorly priced is meanly made, got a wrong twist in it somewhere, you can depend upon that. When you go to buy an oil painting you don't want to be shown a tea store chromo. When you want good Dry Goods you don't want to be shown cheap made apologies for good Dry Goods. Inspect the goodness of the above items
