In so far as the present financial condition of this country may be called panicky, it is purely hysterical. The tension has been so high that a snap or two resulted in general demoralization. Nervous people were shocked by the collapse of the financial balloons in the east, and this shock has affected a great many people throughout the country. After these get over their fright they will be able to see that-,so far as the country at large is concerned it could hardly be in better condition. —South Bend Times. ‘ A press dispatch sent out from Richmond, this afternoon, says: “Van Wert included in the new IndianaOhio base ball league.” The officers of the local base ball association have not yet been advised of the new order of things for the coming season, but it is a foregone conclusion that the association will enter the agreement. Van Wert finished its first year of professional base ball with only a slight financial deficit, after the heavy expenses of grand stand and other necessaries of the establishment of the park.—Van Wert Bulletin.

When the commissioners met at the county auditors office at Huntington Thursday morning they refused to grant a liquor license to Hiram Gill. The trial was held last week when the two factions presented their evidence to the board of commissioners but the board took one w-eq}t to consider the matter before rendering a decision. Mr. Gill’s license ; expired Tuesday night at eleven o’clock and the place was closed at that hour not to be re-opened, until the circuit court has reviewed the case and passed judgment. The temperance people of the township are still hard at work trying to secure enough signers to put all of the saloons of the town out of business for the next two years. — Warren Tribune. Judge Charles E. Sturgis, of this city, acting as special judge in the case of William Vess against Mayor L. A. Guthrie and Chief of Police Benbow, of Muncie, sustained the demurrer to the complaint in the Delaware circuit court yesterday morning which means that no injunction or restraining order will be issued in favor of the plaintiff. Vess had petitioned to enjoin the mayor and the chief of police from enforcing a judgment of the mayor, revoking Vess’ city saloon license. The ruling of Judge Sturgis has been awaited for several weeks. The attorney for Vess prayed for an appeal to the supreme court, and were given twenty days in which to prepare the papers.—Bluffton Banner.

The Euterpean club met at the home of Miss Studebaker last night and had a very Interesting session. A letter from James Pierce today announces the fact that he has signed to play with the Winnepeg base ball team next season, he having signed his contract and returned the same. Jim is a valuable man and will no doubt shine in that compnay as in the 1.-O. league. He expects to visit in Decatur during the holidays. The members of the high school were entertained this morning at chapel by some very appropriate music by the high school orchestra. This new musical organization is now in a position to handle all kinds of social functions and solicit your patronage. The boys have worked hard to make a success and are to be congratulated. The funeral of David Laman, who died Tuesday evening was held this afternoon at the M. E. church. A large crowd being present to pay their last tribute of respect to the deceased Rev. Wilcox officiated and spoke at length concerning the past life of the deceased. The G. A. R. of which he was a member, attenced the funeral in a body.' Interment was made in the Decatur cemetery. The new show to be introduced this evening at the Pictorium is the famous Japanese-Russian war pictures, which give a very graphic description of the recent naval encounter had between these two powerful nations. The pictures are the best ever shown in Decatur, and should be seen by all who are interested in the history of the world. Remember, a great show this evening at the same old price. Any man can take a newspaper. It is the cheapest thing he can buy. Every time a hen cackles and has laid an egg, his paper is paid for that week. It costs you the price of a postage stamp —less than to receive a letter. It comes to you every week, rain or shine, calm or stormy. No matter what happens, it enters your door a welcome friend, full of sunshine, cheer and interest. It opens the door of the great world and puts you face with its great events. It shortens the long winter nights. It is your adviser, possiper and friend. No man is just to his children who does not give a local paper. No man is good to himself who does not take a home paper. ■ 1 — LOST —A silver open faced watch No. 6465061. Finder return to Peoples restaurant and receive reward.
