Entered at the postofflce in Decatur Indiana, as second class mail matter, J. H. HELLER, Manager. The action taken by the clearing houses of nearly all the important cities of the United States to adjust balances by certificates instead of cash, is a step m the interest of public safety—so long as absolutely honest, trustworthy, conservative men are in control. And the probabilities are that pains will be taken to exclude from the management of clearing houses such highflyers as caused the recent disturbance in New York —fellows who wormed themselves into banking institutions for the sole purpose of securing large sums of money for purposes of speculation. —South Bend Times.

DOINGS IN SOCIETY (Continued from page 1.) was to have been held at the home of Miss Hattie Studebaker, but as she is absent from the city, it was found necessary to hold il elsewhere 'so it was decided upon to meet with 'Mrs. Heller. The study of Shak?speare in music promises to be inter- ! esting indeed, although this subject has only been studied for a short time by these ladies as every session furnishes deeper fascination for their , new field of study and discussion. The Passion Play as shown at the Electric theater, under the auspices of the Ladies’ Aid Society of the Presbyterian church, has been quite sucI cessfui. The film is the best that has ever been shown here and the pictures representing the life of Jesus Christ are fine. Tomorrow night the last portion will be shown and no doubt all will be pleased with the efforts of the Presbyterian ladies in securing the film. o —- Thursday night will be Hollow'een and indications are that there will be about the usual number of maskers and jolly crowds on the street. The merchants have already laid in a goodly supply of supplies for the night and report good sales. This is the night when the officers are more lenient and everybody has a good time free from any restraint except the laws against vandalism. So, have a good time, but don’t get rowdy or you may find yourself in the city cooler.

The person who figured this scene out was certainly original. Tom Peterson completed his contract today of putting in the cement sidewalk on the north side of the court house. The job is a good one, and speaks well concerning Mr. Petterson’s merits as a cement sidewalk man.

WILL BE WELL WOMYH’»iEING The “Flaming Arrew" la Ona of Lincoln Carter’e Boot Mr. Lincoln J. Carter, the noted producer and playwright has written a thrilling and interesting play, cleverly depicting frontier life, which comes to the Bosse Opera House Wednesday Oct 30, showing the American aborigine as he lives in his wigwam, his habits, mode of living, his character and temperament. The name of this play is "The Flaming Arrow.’’ A company of sterling worth, including a band of sixteen full blooded Indians, together with cowboys, scouts, ex-Unltpd States soldiers and four bronchos. An Indian band is with the attraction. The play is not as might naturally be expected, a blood and thunder production, abounding In gun shots and other hair-rising episodes. unpleasant to an audience, but is * faithful picture of life on the frontier, and is one of the famous government posts. It tells a beautiful love story, is replete with thrilling scenes and its characters are all taken from living prototypes, true in character and costume. As “Away Down Bast' is a typical play of the old east, so is "The Flaming Arrow” of the far west. It is claimed that in it, is produced one of the truest pictures of western life the stage has ever seen, depicting army and frontier life in and about the famous historical Fort Reno, the scene of so many stirring incidents in the pioneer days of the great west, when Indians and buffalos were as plentiful as they are now scarce. The story of the love of Chief 'White Eagle for Mary Fremont, daughter of the commander of the post, is founded on an actual fact. All of the other characters are drawn from living prototypes. There is the treacherous Mexican villain, and his accomplice, a lieutenant, a deserter from the army; a funloving Irish corporal and his sweetheart. who is more than sixteen; the Colonel’s charming daughter; a prairie wild flower; and the good old colonel, a typical, kind hearted Indian fighter; a darky hostler, continually in . some ludicrous predicament; also many soldiers, cowboys, Indians and men of the plains. A full and complete equipment of scenery is carried, painted from actual scenes. A fully capable company is seen in the play.

Indigestion Stomach trouble is but a symptom of. and sot in itself a true disease. We think of Dyspepsia. Heartburn, and Indigestion as real diseases, yet they are symptoms only of a certain -pedfle Nerve sickness-aiothing else. It was ibis fact that first correctly led Dr. Bboop in the creation of that now very popular Stomach Remedy—Dr. Shoop's Restorative. Going direot to the stomach nerves, alone brought that suecesa and favor to Dr. Shoop and his Restorative. With, out that original and highly vital principle, no such lasting accomplishments w are ever to be had. For stomach distress, bloating, biliousness, bed breath and sallow complexion, try Dr. Bhoop'a Restorative—Tablets or Liquid— and see for you# self what it can and will do. Wo sell and chess, fully recommend Dr. Shoop’s Restorative W. H. NACHTBIEB.
