He Secures Pictures In Terre Haute for Illustrating the Volume.
Terre Haute Express: James B. Elmore, the poet of Alamo, is in the city again after a short absence, collecting material for his forthcoming boob, which will have for one of its leading characters a belle employed in one of the local overall factories.
THE CRAWFORDSYIU,E WEEKLY JOURNAL.
JIM'S NEW BOOK.
Mr. Elmore was accompanied by his daughter Grace and his son-in-law, Nathan Drollinger. Mr. Dx-ollinger posed yesterday in a soldier's uniform for one of the pictures which will illustrate the new story, and Miss Elmore also posed as the soldier's sweetheart.
In the story a Colorado volunteer passes through Terre Haute en route to Cuba and meets at the union depot the girl who afterwards becomcs his wife. The soldier gives his new acquaintance a ring and she in return gives him hor photograph. This picture was made yesterday afternoon at the union depot and will aid in the illustration of the story, which will be written in both prose and poetry. When the soldier returns from the cruel war he passes through'^Terre Haute and again meets his sweetheart, this time near the big fountain in the depot park. An excellent picture was obtained yesterday by the poet, who was aided by his daughter and son-in-law. A stranger represented the sweetheart's brother when the second picture was taken.
The soldier held a tiny«American flag in his hand and the sweetheart wore a bunch of roses on her waist It had been previously arranged for each to wear something that would aid in establishing their identity quickly, because the union depot is a big affair and when filled with people causes much confusion.
Mr. Elmore had such great difficulty in securing a couple to pose for him on the Grand opera house balcony, where the wedding is supposed to have taken place, that he gave up in despair and had the photograph taken at Crawfordsville.
The Balloon Burned Up.
Tuesday at the picnic given by the Knights of Maccabees at which Mrs. Enyard, the wife of a restaurant keeper, was scheduled to make her maiden trip as a balloonist and parachutest, the baloon burned just after it had been inflated and before the ascension could be made. Mrs. Enyard can keep the coffin she hud engaged for some future occasion, and will not have the undertaker or the doctor to pay as she had made arrangements to do. The picnic was quite a success and a large crowd was in attendance.

HAVE A BOUNTY COMING.
Claimed That Spanish-American Volunteers are Each Entitled to $192.
A special from New York which will interest any surviving soldier of the Spanish-American war who enlisted in the same as a member of some volunteer organization, says: "A Brooklyn attorney, having occasion to look through the federal statutes, came across a "bounty law, under which all volunteer soldiers in the late war are entitled to receive $192 in addition to what the government has already paid them. During the civil war the government paid a bounty of $.'?00, but after the war was over this law was repealed. Subsequently, however,
Both went- away and no more was heard from either until Wednesday, when both Britton and Insley received letters stating that the rigs were at Veedersburg in Smith's livery barn, and for the owners to send for them. Of course both Messrs. Insley and Britton were much perturbed when their property was not returned that night, and immediate steps were taken to ap prehend the parties, but the letters received this morning explained the situation, and it now lookB like they were a couple of cheap fakes who are dead beating their way over the country.
To make it all good, Mr. Insley's letter stated that bis man was suddenly called to Decatur, 111., to get samples, and that he would be back next week, at which time he would pay all expenses and rent more rigs. It is safe to guess, however, that if he does come back that he will have to put up considerable security. Mr. Insley went to Veedersburg Wednesday morning to return the rigs.
Death of a Franklin Township Citizen. Benjamin F. Endicott died at the home of his brother-in-law, Mat Dixson, three miles from Darlington, Tuesday at half past eleven a. m. from the effects of a paralytic stroke while eating breakfast. Deceased was a bachelor and was born in Franklin township April 5, 1835, where he has lived all his life. The funeral was conducted by the Rev. Joe Cooper at the St. James Lutheran church, two and onehalf miles east of Darlington, at 11 o'clock Wednesday.
Of Interest to "Women.
Women who have themselves suffered from the evils effects of constipation and indigestion will be Interested in the following letter from a father whose daughter was given up to die by two physicians: '•My daughter has suffered from indigestion for the past five years and has tried nearly everything that she could hear of for such trouble. She was confined to her bed when she began taking Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and after taking one fifty cent bottle she is able to walk a mile at a time and during the day yesterday walked 3'A miles. I feel like praising Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin because two doctors told me my daughter could never get well and I feel that she is on a fair road to permanent relief. "Respectfully, "J. H. M. CKOCKEH." "Nixon, Tenn., Aug. 6, 1900."
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold In fifty cent and 91 bottles, under a positive guarantee, by Nye & Booe, druggists.
THE MAYOR'S COURT.
in order to provide for future oontin-1 jail und Weiluesday mo».ninj^ told gencies, congress passed another law providing for the payment of $192 as bounty money. It is under this law that the Brooklyn attorney has undertaken to collect bounties for several thousand New York volunteers, and
A Number of Cases of Varied Character Come Up Wednesday Before Mayor Elmore.
The boys upon whoso information the affidavits were issued against a number of merchants for selling tobacco to minors and to children were present in the mayor's court Wednesday and three of the cases came up for trial. They were all dismissed, the defendants pleading not guilty and the evi dence not being sufficient to hold them. Several more of the cases will come up to-morrow afternoon.
the matter is now pending before At-1 amj upon his arrival here he drunk some torney General Knox, at Washington. The attorney also discovered a New York state statute, under which the volunteers of that state are entitled to an additional bounty of $54. Other states probabiy have similar laws that were not repealed after the close the civil war. It is estimated that it will cost the government not loss than $5,000,000 to pay olT the bounty claims which will be demanded under the law discovered."
If the New York lawyer succeeds in establishing the claims of the New York volunteers for the bounty, other states will follow suit, and there are nearly three hundred discharged soldiers properly credited to this county who are eligible to put in a claim for their $192.
NERVY DRUMMERS.
Two Slick Traveling Men'Borrow Rigs Here and Notify Their Owners to Come After Them.
Two of the cheekiest individuals that ever struck this city worked a scheme on two of the liverymen here Tuesday that for a simon pure article of nerve outshines all the previous efforts in this line that it has been the pleasure of the interested parties to see.
Monday night a traveling man registering as J. Morgan, of St. Lc"..:iB, asked the night clerk at the Crawford to engage him a rig for the following day, which was done, Doc Britton getting this order. Bright and early the rig was brought around and Mr. Morgan, with his two grips, drove off, first stating that he intended going to Yountsville and Alamo. Another traveling man, whose name cannot be ascertained, went personally to J. J. [Insley and secured a rig, also stating, as did Morgan, that he would want the outfit for the entire day without a driver.
Tuesday night the police found Frank Gray lying across the Monon tracks in an intoxicated condition. Ho was taken
a ramblinsr story jf his troubles. lie stated that he went to Frankfort Tuesday morning with some money in his pocket and while there traded for a watch and drank some Frankfort whisky, lie cinie back to this city
beer, and subsequent events wore a blauk lo him. He said that ho ought to havo had two live dollar bills in his pocket, but all the police located was twenty cents. Mr. Gray was badly dazed and talked until he was sent back to jail, awaiting the appearance of Ollioer Jones, who made the arrest Gray was brought up in the afternoon and given eleven days for intoxication.
There »was trouble on oast Jefferson street Tuesday night and as usual the domicile of Addison Reod was mixed up in it. Five colored fellows,all strangers, wero prowling around the adjacent vicinity and several citizens were fearful of an attempted hold-up. The police wero called and arrested two of them, who gave their names as Wheelook Freill and James Miller. Two of the others ran away after being shot at, and one if the three fellows that had been caught by the officers broke loose and escaped. Miller pleaded guilty to vagrancy and was sentenced to the stone pile, while Freill pleaded not guilty and was held until afternoon awaiting the arrival of Officer Jones.
Freill in the afternoon told a very incoherent story and the mayor thought about fifteen days on the stone pile would do him some good, and he was accordingly taken back.
One of the merchants of the east end entered a plea of guilty on Tuesday through a clerk for Belling tobacco to a minor and was assessed 820.35.
Dave Eads was up charged with assault and battery on Gus Karle and entered a plea of guilty.
On a counter affidavit Karle pleaded not guilty, but the court after hearing the evidence assessed the usual fine in such cases.
One large ornamental jag was slated in the person of John Lewallen, and he entered a plea of guilty with the usual consequences.
