Tom Shields keeps the court house square neatly trimmed. One of the most pleasant parties ot the season was held at the Burt House on Saturday evening last. The weather is never just right. It is either a little too hot, or too cold, too wet, or too dry. > The full particulars of the hanging of Guitcau may be found on the first page of this paper. The Fourth was, all in all, a very quiet day, cool and pleasant, too much to for ice cream and lemonade stands . There will be colored camp meeting held in Zimmerman's Grove, commencin| on Saturday next, and continuing ten days. The factory of Christen and Goodsell is turning out first-class work. Their doors, sash and blinds can not be extolled in workmanship. jyGeorgc Frank is one of the old time Democrats. He called at this office one day last week and paid two years subscription to The Democrat. The woolen factory of Myer Brothersrw:ll resume operations next week. They shut down several weeks since on account of lack of stock and for repairs bon’t forget the excursion to Bome City an d the Assembly next Saturday. The programme for the day is unusually interesting, and will pay for the trip. That juvenile drum corps that pararaded the streets of Decatur the Fourth were a pattern of industry. They exhibited staying qualities that would be a fortune to an organ grinder. Th following are the officers of St, Marys Lodge, I. O. O. F. No. 107. Titus Ernst, N. G.; Frank Crawford, Sec- • retary: D. D. Heller, Rec. Sec.; W. G. Spencer, jr., Financial Secretary; T. W. Mallonee, Treasurer. Willshire is free of tho small-pox, and the pest house has been closed. Th ere are some cases in the neighbor- ! hood of Shanes’ Crossing, the number and condition of which we are uninform- d. Van Wert has also rid herself of the scourge. The Journal asserted last week, that Dr. E. C. Ballard ‘ claims to be a spiritualist.” The Dr. does not claim to be a spiritualist, and is not a spiritualist in any sense of the word. It must be either dense ignorance or intentional misrepresentation, on the part of the Journal, to make such an assertion in regard to the Dr. The colored folks have billed the town fora Camp Meeting, to be held atlzimmerman’s Grove, commencing Saturday, July Bth, and continuing ten days Revs. David Mitchell, of Troy, O.; I. N. Ross, of Oberlin, 0.; J. N. BrOwn. of Dayton, 0., and the boy preacher, J. M. Henderson, prominent W-d evangelists, will be present and conduct U>e services. There will be a choir of select colored vocalists, lead by Geo. Young, of Willshire. Saturday nights an! Sundays an admission fee of ten cents will be charged. Our horse buyers have recently had badiluck, through .he failure of Andres Meng, Philadelphia. The four companies buying horses at this place have lostjabout $20,000. The loss will Wil: not compel any of them to make an assignment, but will seriously cripple some. The large sum lost is not only a serious one to the parties directly interested, but to the business interests of the place. $20,000 of the active circulation withdrawn from the busi ness of a community the size of this, will be felt in all business interests. The boys have the sympathy of The Democrat in their loss, and we hope they may yet be able to realize a large amount if not all of the indebt-edne-s. John Clouser, who became inspired with Bob Ingersolism some time since, and was sent to the hospital for the insane, in consequence thereof, was sent home some two weeks since. He buckled on his revolver and went gunning up and down the town of Mon- ■ rce. He was deprived of his artillery before he did any mischief. He then armed himself with a butcher knife, but the people fearing he would prove too friendly with it, again disarmed him The only freak of industry he indulged in was to rid his garden of the early vegetables his wife had planted with great care. These things, together with various other capers, induced the people to return the unfortunate Clouser to Indianapolis for ’further treatment.

Our correspondents seem to be taking a vacation. Jas. Wagner was chuck full of speeches on the Fourth. The Deeatur -Normal commences next Monday. July 10th. Wool is still finding its way to this market in considerable quantities. The wet weather of the last two weeks, continued through harvest, would be disastrous. The indications for a good crop of billious disorders this summer and fall are favorable. 11. Fl. Meyers is . trying to organize a hunting party to go up about Green Buy, Wisconsin, this fall. Some innocent wishes to know what ‘sleeing’ means. It is respectfully referred to poker Schenck. What became of the yellow stripes that adorned the uniform’s of the K. of P. band is the conundrum? The order of the Board of Commissioners in regard to stock is receiving various interpretations from critics. There was quite a scattering of our people on the Fourth. The half fare business on railroads is what did it. That “plaintiff" pathetic voice in the Journal's camp meeting posters is what caught us. It is just too poetical. The roads in every direction from town were never in a worse condition at this season of the year than at the present. The south part of the county has missed several of the big dashing rains that soaked the northern part of the county.. B. S. Gray, of the Portland Sun and S. Ray Williams, of the Tipton Times, were in town on the Fourth. We did not get within shaking distance, however. The ditch made by the C. & A. R. R. company on Mercer and Rugg streets will, we fear, not prove a blessing to the people along the line of the same. The Fourth of July excursion on the G. R. A I. was the same old flat cars with board seats. Better accommodations will have to be furnished before it will become popular Circuit court of Jay county adjourned last week. The next term in the 26th judicial circuit, commences at Decatur, Monday, September 25th. This gives Judge Bobo a nice vacation during the heated teruf. Charley Jackson had another mishap at his turning lathe this week. He was knocked down and several of his front teeth loosened by an accident similar to that which occurred to him several weeks since. Charley seems to be particularly unfortunate. J. D. Hale, of Geneva, while decorating his residence on the Fourth, stepped into a chair for the purpose of suspending some flags from the front porch, when be slipped, fell and struek on the back of the chair, fracturing three of his ribs. With care and attention his injuries will not be serious. Early fruits and vegetables have been too expensive to command sale in large quantities. Cabbage 7c per pound, strawberries and rasberries at 30c per quart, peaches and apples at 2|c each, and other things in proportion, cause persons with light purses to pass them by. Some of our figures are a little higher than present prices. Monday evening a young man was seen going up the street very tired. His knees were set with a double spring so as not to jar his body in walking. He vibrated from side to side as he walked. He was advised to take a tonic ana did so. It was the fifth of July with him before he had taken it. He was so revived afterward it was only the third.

The first notable event on the Fourth was some twenty men gathered in and around the stairway adjacent to The Democrat office. The center piece was a two gallon jug. They were passing it around to see if there was amiss-fit among them. There was never a time when their lips failed to fit the mouth of the jug completely. It gurgled and warbled like water from a fountain. The music was clear and inspiring. When it takes so little to satisfy the longings, the aspirations, to fill the cup to overflowing with all there is in this life to enjoy, who is there so base as to grudge happiness to any of His creatures. Mrs. Emma Malloy, who is somewhat known to some as an earnest temperance evangelist, was not long since divorced from her liege lord, which gave the gossips a theme for comment as to the reason why. Latterly she has been unpleasantly connected with another temperance lecturer, a Mr. Wm. Wohlgamuth, of Treaty, Wabash county, where Mrs. Emma has visited several times of late, as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Wohlgamuth. It resulted in Mrs. W. getting very jealous of the beautiful Emma, the exciting case being the declarations of Wohlgamuth to his wife, that he loved the other woman and it would be better for them to separate. Mrs. Malloy does not ap pear to reciprocate, and claimed to be ignorant of the feelings of Wohlgamuth toward her until informed by third parties. Wholgamuth has made a fool of himself.

The masons commence the brick work of the I. O O. F. addition, Thursday morning. We notice some shade trees intown with barbed wi re wound spirally around them to prevent cattle from climbing them. The question is, will this kind of protection protect. Judge Davis, of Kokomo, made Decatur a flying visit Wednesday, returning tho s ame evening, taking with him Mrs. Davis, who has been spending a few days with friends and relatives here. C. T. Dorwiti is now occupying his new house. Those dots are polka dots. Every well regulated girl has dots of ’em. A number of Decatur people will take iu Forepaw’s show at Fort Wayne, to morrow. Rev. M. A. Teague assisted in the laying of the corner stone of the new M. E. church at Marion, the 4th. Burglar, have been trying to do some work within the last ten days, but have not been very successful. The reception given at Mr. Jacob Hart’s Friday evening, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hart was pleasantly enjoyed by all. R. 11. Weamer has sold his paper, the Butler lievieio, to a company of gentlemen who will enlarge the paper and publish it in the interest of the democratic party. Rev. M. M. Gleason, it is understood will be the editor of the Journal for the present. The change will result in a marked improvement in the tone of the paper in more ways than one, is our prediction. The yonng ladies of the Catholic church gave an ice cream festival on the evening of the Fourth, at the St. Joseph school house, which was a grand financial success, netting them about one hundred dollars. John R. East’s second lecture at the Court House was largely attended. It was our intention to have taken notes of the same, but we only heard a portion of it. He left before we could secure from him the outline of his remarks. A general speaking meeting will be held for thirty minutes at the close of the morning services next Sabbath at the M. E. church. The subject of the morning sermon will be “Christian Profession;’ in the evening, “A Pure Language.” There is now talk that the depot of the C. & A. railroad will be located on the east side of Winchester street, in consequence of a failure to make terms with Judge Studabaker for ground on the west side of the street, the particulars of which we are not informed. G. A. Bunner, who developed, a gravel bank on his farm, mention of which was made some time since, sold his farm to the C. A A. railroad company for $4,500, or a hundred dollars per acre. The farm was worth, without the gravel, about forty dollars per acre, i It was a good transaction for Mr. Bunner, but a better one for the railroad company. The town authorities have made arrangements to secure the strippings of the stone quarry to McAdamize a portion of the streets leading to the depots and that eye sore of a mud hole, the embankment east of town. These are much needed improvements and if obtained in quantities to make solid and permanent roadbeds, will be a great convenience to wheeled locomotion around town. Our farmers are preparing for the harvest. A. F. Simpson remarked the other day, that he met five new reapers on one road going to their destination as he was coming to town. If this is a fair sample of the preparations for the harvest throughout the county, an immense number of new machines must have been sold. It means there is golden grain to reap and that in no stinted amount. It means that our farmers are prospering, that there will be a plenteous harvest, croakers to the contrary notwithstanding.

One way to elebrate the Fourth, observed by a considerable squad, was to obtain a big jug of stimulants, with which they repaired to an old unocupied shed on an alley. In this way they quietly celebrated. It was commendable by comparison, being much better than parading the streets intoxicated. But the fun and enjoyment to be obtained by this method, passeth ordinary human understanding. Our temperance folks ought to reach out and encompass them with the influence of their example. Their mission should be to such as these. Besides, when once reached and pledged they become active evangelists. Freaks of Lightening. Last Friday, during the storm, lightening struck the barn of Joseph Wolpert, a short distance west of town, the old Fitzgerald farm. It tore considerable of the siding off of one end, killed a valuable horse and two cows, set the barn on fire in two places and the shock severely effected Mr. Wolpert, but not enough to prevent him from extinguishing the flames. At nearly the same time it struck a cabin on the farm of Conrad Brake, ploughed and grooved around among the logs of the cabin, leaving some terrible scars on them, rattled around among the pots and skillets in the old fashioned fire place and left the room full of blue smoke, doing no damage except breaking an iron pot and skillet.

The physicians of this Congressional district met in convention on Tuesday, June 27th, at Marion, Grant county, for the purpose of organizing a District Medical Association. Doctor Helm, of Peru, was elected chairman. The attendance was large and enthusiastic, every county in the district being represented. The following gentlemen were ap pointed as a committee to draft a constitution, code of asthetics, by laws Ac. J. W. Hall, Grant county; C. B. Higgins, Miama; E. I'. Donnelson, Wabash; F. S. C.

On motion by Dr. Higgins, the Secretary was instructed to prepare a synopsis of the proceedings, and request its publication in the various county papers. F. S. C. Grayston, M.D.. Secretary. The Fourth in Decatur. There was the usual influx of people from the surrounding country on the Fourth. The Alerts headed by the Knights’ of Pythias band gave a street parade in the forenoon and marched to Studabaker’s woods and pic-nic-ed in the woods. Judge Bobo read the Decleration of Independence and made a short patriotic address. He was followed by Rev. M. M. Gleason, and he in turn by Rev. Theo. 11. Wilkins in remarks appropriate to the day and occasion, when an adjournment was had for dinner. As ter which, Rev. Gleason was again called out. The Alerts followed with a little drill with their ladders in the tree tops to the amusement of the spectators. In the evening the fireworks were discharged from Zimmerman’s field east of town, and were not remarkable, except for the meagerness of the display. LOST :—A Knights’ of Pythias badge, between the K. of P. band room and the Journal office. Any person finding the same will confer a favor by leaving it at The Democrat office.

Guiteau. The assassin of Garfield paid the penalty the law awarded him—death on the gallows—-last Friday. This was the satisfaction demanded by the American people, which nothing but death would have appeased. He maintained his inspiration theory to the last. lie indicates ill-will and animosity toward those in authority. whom he vainly imagined could save him. which was breathed forth in his last prayer. Shortly before 12 o’clock Giteau was nervous and seemed ready to break down and burst into tears sobbing hysterrically, and seemed in great anguish. Warden Crocker read the death warrant, when he became more composed, approved the warrant, and turned away to arrange his toilet. At 12:27 o'clock, the iron gates at the end of the corrider clicked and the grim precession started for the gal-* lows. His face was pallid, the muscles of his mouth twitching nervously, which was the only sign of faltering. He marched to the gallows with a quick step and ascended the scaffold. He made a quick survey of his surroundings. The black cap was then adjusted and at 12:40 the trap on which he rested was sprung, his neck being broken by the fall. Death wasinstancous. The autopsy after death revealed nothing abnormal in the brain or vital organs. OANK STATEMENT.
