FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1W2.

The Denver I'ost, evidently jealous of the success of our Tom Patterson, •who is the editor of a rival sheet and U. S. senator "from Colorado, has culled the following items from the Congressional Eccord as tending to show what an influential man Tom is at "Washington:

Mr. Patterson defended the motion vigorously. The motion was lost— fJ9 to 9.

Senator Patterson bitterly denounced the amendment, which was then carried— 08 to 7.

Senator Patterson made a brilliant speech favoring the motion. The motion was defeated—70 to

Senator Patterson moved an amendment to the substitute. Lost—74 to Senator Patterson then arose to address the senate. It was moved to adjourn—94 to 0.

Now Its Jones Talking. (Indianapolis Sentinel.)

Clyde J. Jones, of Crawfordsville, chairman of the Montgomery county Democratic committee, was in the city yesterday and called at the state headquarters. Mr. Jones is an enthusiast in regard to the outlook for Democratic euccess in the coming election. He believes the Democrats will carry the county this time and it will record its vote against Charles B. Landis. The party is united and all the members are working together harmoniously to win a big victory, he says.

Con. Really Knows Better. (Indianapolis Sentinel.)

Cornelius W. Cunninghatfl, of Crawfordsville, was at the Occidental yesterday with his son. Mr. Cunningham is one of the leading Democrats of the Ninth district, and was a delegate to the Chicago convention two years ago. Hfe is enthusiastic over the prospects of the Democrats carrying the state in the coming election. He believes the Democrats are sure to carry everything this time and says he scents victory. He says Montgomery county will go Democratic this time without doubt. He is one of the Democrats who believe that it is possible to redeem the Ninth district from the Republicans and promises to assist materially in bringing about the defeat of Congressman Landie.

Put the Others Out of Business.

The truth of the {matter Is, the production of "Ben-Hur," with its great ohariot race and wonderful scenery and hvmdr?ds of and soldier? ftnd danger* and Bplebtild fefetting, that sel-Ves ntnV attract houses of such magnitude every night at Drury Lane theater as only such a great structure could hold, has so seriously interfered with the usual business at the other London theaters, especially those where drama or melodrama is the attraction, that certain managers seem to have lost he -.rt, and therefore concluded to put up the usual fortnight's notice without waiting to see if the business would not pick up a bit after the first few weeks of the excitement over the production of "Ben-Hur" was over.—

New York Times.

The'College Bouquet.

The committees appointed to arrange the various features of the college banquet on Tuesday noon of commencement week are hard at work and there is every probability that it will be a most interesting feature. One thousand invitations will be issued. The promoters regret an impression that is abroad- in Eome quarters that it is a coeducational affair. They give out assurance that nothing will be done or said on the occasion to which any friend of the college could take exception, no Imatter what his views as to college polioy. It is simply an occasion •where all the college's friends, alumni, non-graduates, faculty, trustees, students and their families may come together in asocial way.

Supplies fer'County Asylum.

The requisition is now on file at the auditor's otficelfor supplies for the next quarter. The estimates cover the following headings: Groceries, clothing, dry goods, shoes, hardware, drugs and meats. The estimate is fully itemized and can be seen by the prospective bidders by calling at the auditor's office.

Bids will be received for the same Tuesday, June b, 1902. Wm, White, Auditor.

This reservation is a part of the old Spanish province of "Tmysayan." There are many old ruins on the reservation, and as a result it is much visited by representatives from eastern museums. If you should visit the Co lumbian Field museum at Chicago you would find many relics from this territory. Some that I have 6een in the caves of the cliff dwellere have been taken there. Also large numbers have been excavated from the ruins. Mr. PvreHj th^ representative of the mu66uui, lifts fepfeht two se&sofis here. Thfey have to get peciilisslon frotii the Indian office at Washington, before they are allowed to excavate in the old ruins.

FROM ARIZONA.

w. Ewlng Writes an Interesting Letter From That Desert Territory.

Through the courtesy of Jim Elmore The Journal is permitted to publish the following very interesting letter from W. W. Ewing, our fellow townsman, who is teaching the young idea how to shoot way out on the deserts of Arizona:

5, 1!»U2.

—-Mr. J. Elmore, Alamo, Indiana.— Dear Sir and Friend.—Yours arrived on time and was glad to hear from you. Having seen a synopsis of your book "love Among the Mistletoe," and as we have it here by the wagon loads, it occurred to me that you would appreciate a sample. My work is quite pleasant here, with the exception of being separated from my family. Also my health is much better than in Indiana. We have made an average in attendance of 170 this year. The school year closes June i!0. The pupils are of the Moqui tribe, with twenty-five Navajos also in the school. The Moqui are a small people and live in seven villages high up on the mesas. They have their enake dance in x\ugust of each year. The Navajo is physically touch larger than the Moqili &nd holds him in contempt. If it were not for the white man the Navajo would soon dispose of the Moqui. I find the Moqui children the brightest of any Indians that I have had in school. They are not an Indian proper, but probably a remnant of the Aztecs.

Walpi and Mishongnove. The story goes that the Tawans were a remnant from a destroyed village adopted by the Mcqui instead of a vlll&ge of theirs that had been destroyed. According to the report of a priest the Spaniards had missionaries among these people more than two hundred years ago, but the missionaries were all murdered.

But enough of history or tradition, whichever it is. The cowboy who brought me from the railroad, S5 miles, said his idea was that when "'The good Lord made the earth he had some material left over and just tossed it to one side and named »it 'Arizona.'" This part of the territory is a barren desprt except a few small valleys. Now the rule in the west is to never call anything in question, but simply tell something "bigger." In having sdme boys repair the road up the mesa one day last week they caught twenty rattle snakes and put them in a gunny sack. We brought them down and kodaked a number the next morning. But as they are ratherJBdangerous pets, we dispatched them and cremated them in the laundry furnace. More than dozen more have ibeen killed and we have named the place "Rattlesnake

Point." Centipedes and tarantulas are common. Ourj schoolboys have killed three wild cats this winter. Sand storms are common at this season of the year. July and August is the rainy season here. But I will have to bid

you goodnight.With many good wishes I am Respectfully Yours,

W. W: Ewing.

The disinfection of stables after a period of constant use should be a part of routine practice. Dairy stables in particular should be disinfected twice a year and oftener if the conditions demand it. It is not possible to give many stables that thorough disinfection that is possible in houses, because their construction will not admit of it, but it is possible to do very much and at little expense. The ideal method of disinfection is by means of a gas as that would have the power to penetrate everywhere. The effectiveness of this method depends upon securing a large volume of gas and maintaining it for some time. Unless the stable can be made tight, a gas will be of little use. For all practical purposes the gas produced by burning sulphur over a pot of coals is the be3t if used in connection with steam. The dry sulphur fumes have little germ killing power, but when combined with the steam in the air it forms a compound that is deadly. The boiling of water and burning of sulphur snouU go togeth er. Formaldehyde gas is not so efficient for stable disinfection as many would have us believe. A very practical means of disinfection that may be used,under almost every stable condition is by whitewashing, This is not expensive for material and is very easily applied by means of an inexpensive fruit spray pump. The lime should be thoroughly slacked and strained through cloth and made just thin enough to work well through the nozzle. One man can apply two coats of whitewash with a pump and reach all parts of side and ceiling of a room in about one fourth the time required with the brush. Whitewash will kill or hold the germs with which it comes it contact. It has the effect too of making tb3 barn lighter and cleaner. After the first spraying, one application will usually be sufficient if given regularly. As the business of supplying railk to cities and creameries is of large proportions and depends upon cleanliness, this precaution of disinfection should be regularly followed.

BUSINESS COLLEGE TO MOVE.

The Present Quarters are too' Small and President Hall Will Try to Secure Rooms lo the Y. M. C. A.

President A. J. Hall, of the Crawfordsville business college, conferred Wednesday with the board of directors of the \. M. C. A. relative to the renting of the two west rooms on the first iloor of the association building. The extreme west room will be vacated upon the completion of the Carnegie library, and the next room is already unoccupied. The present quarters of the business college have been inadequate for more than a year, as the growth of the institution has been very healthy in that time Mr. Hall has been on the lookout for new rooms, but until this time has been unable to find any to his liking. With the two rooms he has in view, after suitable alternations have been made, Mr. Hall feel6 that he will be able to accommodate a a larger number of students than has heretofore been possible The attendance thio last year would, had it not been for the smallpox sca*e, have been too large for the accommodations, and Mr. Hall believes that it behooves him to seek more commodious quarters before next year. It is his expectation to also secure the use of the auditorium as a gymnasium for the exclusive Of the students.

Sugar Creek township, Boone county, commencement exercises will take place the 20th of June. There are but four graduates so far but it is thought others will be eligible after the examination to take place to-day. Rev. U. L. Montgomery, of Thorntown, will deliver the class address. It has not ye}, been decided in which school building of the township the exercises will be held.— Colfax Standard.

SEVENTEEN YEAR LOCUSTS,

They are Here in Great Hordes and Will Probably do the Customary Amount '-:7 of Damage to Young Trees.

This is the year for the seventeen year locusts to visit us, and true to their peculiar habit, they have arrived in full force. The little pests are to be found clinging to almost all kinds of trees, but as yet the most of them are under ground. Said Wm. O'Neal Tuesday: "I don't fear the locusts as pouch as most people, for I don't think they are as dam&giiig to property as they are popularly thought to be. They will not harm anything this year except possibly some apples trees. They make mighty fine turkey feed and I'll tell you right now that this is bound to be the banner turkey year of many seasons. They make a good deal of noise, they have good strong lungs and they are notfafraid to use them, but I think it is all in how a man looks at it whether the noise is distasteful or not. It doesn't bother me."

Mistaken identity.

Because he didn't know his own son, Silas Long had to contribute to the c'.tvexchequer on Wednesday to the sum of eleven bones and. thirty-five integral parts of another. Silas saw two boys fighting Tuts'ay evening and he thought one of them was his own son. He separated them and pro ceeded to administer a few gentle touches to the supposed junior Long. It turned out, however, that the youngster was a son of Luther Hamilton, and accordingly Mr. Long was slaitsu for assault.
