J. H. HELLER, Manager. THE OUTLOOK IN INDIANA. In speaking of the Indiana outlook Governor Marshall declares that he can not see anything but victory for the democrats. The democratic party . is right on the national issues, which will have an incidental effect in the campaign, hut state matters will be primarily involved in the November electon. In a speech at Fort Wayne the governor said that he had promised the people of Indiana that he would give them constitutional government for four years, "and, God helping me. I’ll do it,” he added. In an interview at a diffrent place he declared with equal positiveness: "If anything wrong has crept into my administration, I don't know it. If there has I will find it out, and I don’t intend to do as others have * done if there is anything wrong. I would criticise wrong in my own ad- j ministration the same as I would in j any other.” And the people know , that he will do as he says. There is ' every reason why the democrats I should win in Indiana, and none why they should lose. FOR RENT —Seven-room house, North 1 11th St. Hard and soft water.

Progressive pedro was enjoyed and prizes were won, first, Mrs. C. O. Meibers; second, Mrs. J. H. Bremerkamp; third. Mrs. W. A. Kuebler.

Kern last evening, this session proving to be the most interesting of the year. A building fund organization was effected last evening, and the money in this will be used for the building of a new church at some undetermined future time. The young people were divided into two contesting sides, with Mesdames Eugene Runyon and E. B. Kern leaders, and their endeavor will be to secure a mile of pennies as soon as possible. Foot slips, with pockets for sixteen pennies were given each member, who will try to secure his quota of tha "mile.;” The contest will close August Ist, and

there is much pleasant rivalry over ; I the outcome. 8. C. Cramer was elected secretary and treasurer of this organization.

After the business period a social time was enjoyed, r with a vocal duet by Misses Blanch ' and Ruth Worden, and a recitation by Louie Worden and other pleasant features, Including the serving of refreshments. At the close of the meeting the company arranged a serenade for Mr. and Mrs. Dorwin Drake, a newly married couple, who yesterday moved to their new home in that vicinity. The serenade was characteristic of the old-fashioned “belling" and Mr. and Mrs. Drake were glad to stop the "music" by giving the beilers a treat. Mrs. Drake was formerly Miss Cora Springer, and both are well known young people of that community. The next Y. P. A. meeting will be at the Oliver Walters home on [ May 10th.

Fonner in honor of his birthday anniversary. Mr. Woy is just eighty-one years of age today, but he looks like a young man and feels like a boy.

OPENING MAY 10 Maple Grove Park May be Ready For Opening on That Date. MANY AMUSEMENTS Features Want to Come Here —Getting the Ball Diamond Ready. With the coming of the warm days the minds of the public revert to the leafy, shady parks and before many weeks they will be in full possession of the public. Frank McConnell of the Maple Grove Park association, went to Maple Grove park this afternoon to look after the condition of the base ball diamond and other things which may demand attention. It is thought that the park will have its opening for the season by May 10th. For some time Mr. McConnell has been receiving letters from various shows and entertainment feature companies regarding the outlook of their establishment here for the season. and it is probable that a number of them will locate here. Then there will be the old standby—the merry-go-round, the dancing pavillion, the shooting galleries, and such, which have become permanent fixtures of this most desirable pleasure ground, so largely patronized by the public for miles around. —o PLEASANT VALLEY NEWS.
