M Our columns will be largely devoted to local news hereafter. | The Decatur markets were not corrected last week—an oversight. V The Odd Fellows’ Band played for the funeral of Anthony Kohne last Monday. I The Adams county Democrats are alive and will do their duty on next Tuesday. | The foreman of this office made a •*pie” of two columns of type, consequently we are late this week. I The South Carolina Jubilee Singers will give a concert at Kover s Hall tonight. They come well recommended. I Tuesday night was Halloween. Some of the boys were trying to have a little fun and some of the girls were masquerading. The reservoir, at Celina, is said to be a capital place for ducks just now. The sportsmen find plenty of game at this season. I A literary and musical entertainment will be given by the M. E. choir on Thanksgiving evening. The choir will take a prominent part. ■ A letter was received at the Decatur postoffice last week, directed to the one armed man who works at the gravel pit, care of Col. Moore. The one armed man received his letter. < Dr. Ph. D. Paul, the successful German Eye Spec ialist will make his 16th visit to D ecatur, and be at the Burt House, Saturday, Nov. 11, provi- | dence permitting. Examination free. We have on exhibition at this office a double stalk of corn, which grew I from a single grain. The stalk divides at the second joint, and contains a meI dium sized car of corn on each stalk. It would be a comfort to know where I my Thanksgiving turkey roost’s, remark led a lover of good things. With a sigh we turned away, with the reflec- | tion that, even ye editor could only | tell where his turkey does not roost. The return game of base ball be- ’’ tween the Monmouth boys and Pauldi ing and Union mixed clubs resulted in a victory to the Monmouths, by a score [of 30 to 20. The third and deciding j game of the series will be played soon. John Bowers has just made a large I sedition to his business and stock of an entirely new line of general shelf • hardware, also the best and cheapest, i line of stoves to be found in Decatur. ■ Do not forget his store around the corner when you want anything in his line. Saturday last the tracklayers on the | Chicago and Atlantic R. R. reached Zimmerman's farm about one mile east of town. Monday they reached and crossed Meicer street, and are at this time a considerable distance west of this place. Saturday, Monday and Tuesday hundreds of our people went out to witness the track laying. A long train of cars the rear of which was loaded with steele rails on the front with ties was backed down the track as fast as it was laid. A track was laid on top of the cars comprising the construction train, from front to rear so that a truck could be run from the rear back to the ties. Thetruck wasloaded with ties and run backward to the rear end of the train where it was dumped and the ties ranged in older. Poe rails were then run off of the cars on rollers and caught on trusseis and placed in position. Under favorable circumstances about one mile and a quarter of track can be laid in a day.. The gap in this county will soon be completec 1 , and the one west of Hunt iugton, when there will be an unbroken line of rails between New York and Chicago. The road will soon be ballasted and levelled and ready for business. One of the numerous reporters of the Journal was present to hear the Rev. H. Fischer speak at the Court House, Tuesday flight. We will wager a nickle that he will not report it. They could not if they would and would not if they could. He had a good large audience of our ( German citizens and gave the Republican party and its corruption a tern ble fcatlnng. He makes a red hot speech, and his work will count when the vote is footed up next Tuesday.

Pay Your I axes. The Sixth day of November is the last, day you cun pay your taxes wit it ; out penalty. This is fair notice to J. Do not neglect calling at the Treasurer’s office and paying your second installment of taxes before the penalty attaches,—n2Bw3. R. D. PATTERSON, Treasurer. How it was done and what did it, will be the next conundrums. Tn short, our next issue will not appear until after the battle of the ballots is won and lost. According to the Bluffton Herald the girls of that place pull one anothers hair on the street. One wears ve belt, having come out first besl, in a matinee of that kind, when a couple of them pitched into her expecting an easy victory. A nice young man of that place was referee. Happy Bluffton. There was a heavy storm of rain at this place Saturday night, with«coneiderable thunder and lightning accompaniment. During the progress of the storm the Court House was struck by lightning, the charge passing off by one of the rods on the north side of the building. A portion of the charge left the conductor as it went over the cor nice of the building and exploded like a heavy rocket, making considerable more noise, with a bright display of nature's electric light. The scene was witnessed by several of our citizens, who were in the immediate neighborhood, some of whom were considerably shocked by the electric current. No damage was done the building.

The schools in Jefferson township are reported in good condition with the following teachers at the helm : P. E. Kinney, 11. H. Grade, J. N. Teeter, H. B. Schencks, J. ,T. Kinney and Patrick Kinney. The adopted books are used and are giving good satisfaction. The schools are all classified and being giaded according to the new course of study and everything bids fair for successful schools in Jefferson. The Institute on Friday was a success, the Superintendent, trustee, all teachers and a houseful of visitors were present. The trustee and teachers are full of enthusiasm. Next Institute will be held in three weeks, November 18th., at district No. 6. Personals. Geo. McConnell is at his post of duty again. A Mr. Kover, of Cincinnati, is visiting in Decatur. Dr. Reed, of Van Wert, spent the forepart of this week in Decatur. Mrs. Walter Tiger, of Fort Wayne, has been visiting in Decatur this week Mrs. Joseph Burge, of Portland was in Decatur the forepart of this week. Thomas Murphy, formerly of this, place, is lying very low with dropsy in New York. Col. Moore and his corps of civil engineers, who have made this place their headquarters during the construction of the Chicago and Atlantic railroad , will leave here in a few days for their home near Warrenton, Va. The corps have made many warm friends during their stay here, by their gentlemanly conduct, who regret the parting. The division which Col. Moore and his associates have had control of is said to be the best between Marion aud Chicago. A CRANK ARRESTER. Met hod in hie Madnesa. Last Thursday, a crank who hailed from Enterprise, 0., put in an appear ance at Decatur. Our first acquaintance with him was a business one. He wanted some printing; was a lecturer, etc. “A job is always grist for a printer and we took it in. While making the necessary arrangements, it was discovered he was ‘-full in the widest and most comprehensive acceptance of the term—“drunk as a lord” or any other fellow you ever saw. Great was our astonishment when he thrust “copy" in our face aud we read the subjects, embracing three lectures. First : \\ hat makes a Mau ' 2nd., Society aud its relations. 3rd., temperance and drunkenness and what come of them. Reading fur;her we found, “These subjects wili be treated from experience. And in regard to the third proposition, we had no doubt that he had the experience. He was set down as a dead s beat, and we made sure of our money. Later in the day, he wanted bills for a special lecture at Kov. r s Hall, for Friday night, and wanted them immediately, He was sent to the Journal who did the work The next thing heard from him he was in the hands of Sheriff Krick, charged with theft, with robbing some one at Enterprise, of forty dollars in money ard a note for S2OO. When arrested, it was upon a warrant issurd in Van Wert county. He well knew he could not be taken back to that state without a requisition. Instead of demurring to the arrest, he remarked he would not object, to the proceed ing, all he stipulated for was that noth- ; ing should be said about it. He is worse than he was judged by first impressions. Had this old soak lectured litre he would iu ail probability have been found to b.- a Republican impori tation.

[Fcr the Democrat.] . The dwarf, Mahone, has bolder grown, In the bad ways of‘black-mail Hubbell,' ■ When, to pre.’ail, he stopped the mail, I To give a poor posltu isle ■ 'rouble. This P. M. seat his “2 per cent.,” (The idea seems to be quite funny,) In a large bill found iu his till, Known as “Confed rate money” Tho’ somewhat strange, to get revenge, (The av'rage reader gently smiles,) The papers say Mahone straightway Remov’d the office oft ten miles! What’s meaner yet, this Arthur’s pet Heeded not a widow's prayer, Though very poor, with wolf at door, Who ask'd relief ftom Hubbell’s snare. One lady did, 'tis said, get rid Os this most vile, blood-curdling tax—’Cause near akin, the mn ikiii Made Hubbell's hold on he. relax. The lady which escap’d was rich, And had a salary quite ample— This shows Mahone has heart of stone, Who let Hub. on the widow trample. Such tricks as these seem W.-11 to please A would be maker of our laws, Who, in his speech, endors'd the ieech, And makes with him a common cause. Civil Service Reformer. Laid to Rest. Anthony Kohne departed this life Friday, October 27, aged 76 years. He was among the fust settlers of this county, having immigrated from Germany forty years ago. At that time, where the city of Decatur now stands there was but a single log cabin on the river bank. He secured for himself a comfortable home and grew and developed with the country. I’or many years he was one of the township Trustees. He and Detrick Reider, for several years, were two out of three that then constituted the Board of Trustees of this township. Those who knew him best testify to his worth and integrity. In all the relations of life he was an exemplary member of society. He, with his sister, Mrs. Wilhelmenia Delks, were among the first members of the Catholic Church of this place, and he was honored by them as a patriarch. A large concourse of people attended his funeral on Monday. The procession was headed by the I. O. O. F. band. Literary.

Os course trace chains cost no more than they did before Steele so voted; but, if they had been put upon the free list, they would cost less than half what they now do.

coBEt ®[ I \ Smoney refunded. IW. M tani 11 lul. A combination of Coiled Wire Springs, Whalebone and Corset Jean, which is pronounced by lftdleß The Perfection of Corsets. Fits perfectly a greater variety of forms than a! Yields readily to every respiration, and is equally comfortable in any position assumed by the W Warranted to retain its perfect shape till worn out. By it you secure a more graceful figure than with any other Corset. Please give it a single trial and you will wear no other. What Leading Chicago Physicians Say of It: Chicago, Oct. 22,1880. I have examined Ball’s Health Preserving Corset and believe it is in every respect best calculated to preserve the health of the woman who wears it. It does not seem possible for the wearer of such a corset to be injured by tight lacing. It should recieve the favorable endorsement or the Physicians who have the opportunity of examining It. James Nevins Hyde. Chicago, Oct. 26, 1880. I fully endorse what Dr. Hyde says in the above note. W.H.Btfobd. Chicago, Oct. 13,1880. I have examined Ball’s Health Preserving Corset and believe it to be the least injurious to the wearer of any Corset I have seen. A. J. Baxter, M. D. Chicago, Oct. 27,1880. I do not advise any woman to wear a Corset, but if she will do so—and she generallv will—l advise her to use one of Ball’s Health Preserving Corsets, as it is less lifcely to do her injury than any other with which I am acquainted. * ▲.
