The county board of review adjourned Saturday evening'. During its sessions it took some property olT the duplicate as unjustly taxed, but added considerable more to it, the net gain being about 8100,000.
Fewer Schools.
Several of the trustees of the county will experiment in school consolidation this coming school year and it is likely that there will be from teu to fifteen fewer schools in session than there were last year. This will mean that several of the poorer teachers in the county will be without employment next season.
Death of Mat Bever.
Mat Bever, for many years surveyor of Fountain county, aud a man known all over this county, died of consumption Sunday at his home in Waynetown. He had recently returned from Texas where he went in a vain pursuit of health. Mr. Bever was an excellent man and had a host of friends. He was a member of the Crawfordsville commandery, Knights Templar.

HOME AGAIN.
A Number of Crawfordsvllle's Soldier Boys Return to Their Friends.
The Crawfordsville boys who enlisted in the 44th Q. S. infantry twentyone months ago for service in the Philippines, are rapidly returning "home. Twenty-nine went from here for service in the 44th and on June 30 twentyseven of these men were discharged in San Francisco Two remained in the Philippines, Jimmie Holmes, who is now a policeman in Manila, and Archie Caper, who is operating a store of his own in Cebu.
A majority of the twenty-seven have already arrived here, one bunch of eleven arriving from St. Louis last Friday. So far the following boys have returned: Harry Miller, John and George Maxwell, George Hunt, A1 Long, George Borst, Bert Morgan, Wilger Bennett, David Doyle, Fred Barnett, Howard Bratton, Claude Iteese, Clarence Burke, Jame| Devitt, Harvey Irwin, Henry McMains, Homer Heffner, Roy Hamilton, and Harry Phillips.
There was a sad scene at the Vandal ia station last Friday when Claude Reese was informed of the death of his mother, which had taken place in his absence.
All the boys return in excellent health except John Maxwell, whoso hearing has become quite defective. The others, however, are stronger and better men than when they left. All are glad to got home, and all are glad they went.out, the experience having been a very valuable one for them.
Harry Miller said last Saturday: "All the boys who went from here with the 44th saw active service and all of them were under lire numerous times. Some of them had close calls but not one was even wounded. Just before we boarded our transport we had a little skirmish of an hour and a half and after it was over we had 190 Filipinos to bury. Our lieutenant was shot in the arm but no one else was hurt on our side. The experience we had in soldiering was a great one and none of us would part with it. "Archie Caper, who remained behind in Cebu, will get rich in a short time. He started with a general store stock worth about $150 and when we left he was $3,000 to the good. Everything he sells he tripples his money on and he sells a good deal. All the boys left for home immediately on their discharge in San Francisco except Wilce Everson who remained to see the sights for awhile.
The boys brought home with them many mementoes of their soldier life, some of them valuable and all of them interesting. A1 Long brought back a handsome watch on the back of which is enameled Aguinaldo's picture. He also brought a handsome pair of field glasses. Both these articles he captured in the headquarters ot a rebel band iu Cebu.
A Rumor.
Rockville /itpubliruii: There is a rumor ailoat in the north part of the county that since the township in Fountain county in which Kingman is located voted down aid to the Crawfordsville Traction Co., (electric railway line) an effort will be made to divert the line through this county to Montezuma in order to strike the coal field of northwestern Parke. We do not know that there is any foundation for the rumor or that the townships of this county would do any better in the way of aid than Fountain.
Berth For Fred Martin.
Fred'V. Martin, of Attica, Ind., was Friday appointed commissioner of Immigration for Porto Rioo at a salary of $2,500 per annum. He will be stationed at San Juan. He was recommended by Congressman Landis. Mr. Martin will remain in Washington a day or two for instructions with regard to the regulations of the service, then go to New York City to familiarize himself with the practical work of the immigrant bureau at Ellis island. He will sail for San Juan in about a week.

PEPSIN SYRUP
Co.
Dear Sirs:—For the past 10 years I was troubled with my stomach. About four years ago was taken down with rheumatism was not able to do a day's work for three years. All medicine seemed of no benefit to me. A year ago I was advised to take Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. I truly believe I would have died but for this medicine. My rheumatism is entirely gone and my stomach is in good condition. It has saved by life and I cannot recommend it too highly.
Yours respectfully, ELWOOD MCCRACKEN.

A FRIGHTFUL EXPERIENCE.
A Mother Drives Into Her Barn Lot and Finds There the Mangled Body of Her Son.
A sickening tragedy occurred Friday afternoon in Sugar Creek township, William Conrad losing his life by an explosion of dynamite. No one witnessed the accident and the dead body was found two hours after the tragedy by his mother.
William Conrad was a single man, twenty-eight years old, and lived with his widowed mother, Mrs. Joseph Conrad, not far from Colfax in this county. Friday Mrs. Conrad drove to Clark's Hill and the young man desiring to blow out a stump in tho field, went to Colfax and purchased some dynamite. He returned home and after dinner remarked to the hired man who -vas picking cherries, that he intended to go out and blow up the stump. He was never seen alive again. A short time after the cherry picker heard a loud explosion behind the barn and supposed that the stump had been blown up. Two hours later Mrs. Conrad returned from Clark's Hill and drove into the barn lot. some little distance from the house. Her horror and agony can be imagined when unsuspectingly she drove her horse up to the spot where lay the frightfully mangled body of her son. From the surroundings a tolerably clear idea of how the accident occurred can be obtained. The dead body was lying with a new pitchfork across it and it is more than probable that the victim was forcing the cap into the dynamite with a prong of the fork when the stuff exploded. His left arm was blown off, his left side torn off and his bowels scattered about the ground. Parts of the body were blown a distance of forty feet and were spattered on the barn and corn crib nearby. When Mrs. Conrad arrived hogs had just begun to feed upon the body aod would soon have added horror to the tragedy. The distracted woman drove them off and gave the alarm and then was prostrated. Her condition is regarded as quite serious. Coroner Dennis visited the scene Jast Saturday and found that some people believe that the dynamite was exploded in a different manner from that advanced above. They seem to think that he started around the corn crib carrying the fork in one hand and the dynamite in the other, that the fork struck the side of the crib, Hew around and struck the dynamite, which being sensitive on account of the heat, exploded. However, the real facts will never be known.
M. B. Watign, who knew Mr. Conrad well, speaks of him in the highest terms as a most excellent young man.
Raisins' Violotfl.
Many worn-out farms in Virginia have of late been utilized for the growing of violets. The industry is spreading rapidly, and some of the most successful growers are women. They employ small negro boys to carry on the work, which is not laborious. This greater part of the yield is taken by Philadelphia dealers The great violet growing center, however, according to Dr. B. T. Galloway of the Department of Agriculture, is Poughlceepsie, New York. All violets from this district fim1 ready market in New Yprh t-'ity, the flowers generally bringing the raisers not less than a cent each. The average yield of a single plant is fifty flowers a year, and ith good care a hundred may be obtained. In the Virginia violet ?irms, after the young off-shoots have been transplanted into open frames, rolling wooden screens are used on the top of the frames to regulate the amount of sunShine which shall be admitted to the plants.—Youth's Companions.
Urjjlne: China to Awaka.
It Is said that Minister Wn Ting Fang Is about to memoralize the Chinese throne, calling attention to the progress of Japan and urging that China also awake from the lethargy of ages and imitate her island neighbor. When it was intimated to Minister Wu by a Washington friend that such a course might cost him Ills official and perhaps physical head he shrugged his shoulders and said that was the usual fate of reformers.
A Jf.w Farming Region.
An lmbiease region in northern Ontario, covering 15,080,000 acres and stretching from Quebec westward to Thunder bay, on the north shore of Lake Superior, is now for the first time recognized as being excellently adapted for farming. The district also contains a great pulp-wood forest, besides 3,000,000,000 feet of pine wood.
Lighted Lamps iu Orchard, Last season William Reese, owner of a large apple orchard near Bean lake, Mo., sustained considerable loss through ravages of insects among his fruit. This year, in addition to spraying his trees, he will place fifty lighted lamps in different parts of the orchard at night, depending on a practical demon-
Btratlon of the moth-and-flame theory.
