Dorsey’s “soap.” We told you so. Eiting's for ties. The campaign is over. Didn't we give it to ’em. The Republicans are sick. What will the Journal say ? We wagered a new hat on it. Piqua, Ohio, has a daily paper. Stove dealers are having a good trade. By this time next year we will have an Opera House. There was a fight on our streets last Saturday evening. Butter and eggs are luxuries if prices indicate anything. “Buffalo Bill” appeared at the acadmy, Fort Wayne, last night A. McCann is shipping lots of good hogs to Cincinnati, of late. There is a man in town who knows who the “big four” of the W. C. T. U are. There was a pound party at the Presbyterian parsonage Friday night last. It took two men to hold John King when he saw the rooster in the Cincinnati Enquirer. The Democrat is late this week on account of waiting for the returns ot the election. It will not require a street sprinkler to cool off some of the candidates as was expected. The battle of the ballots was a quiet and we might say dignified affair, at this place Tuesday. The weather has not been very favorable the last week for those engaged in re building the burnt district. Our C. & A. railroad men are folding their tents for a departure hence where there are more railroads to build. Anthony Kohne, who was buried last week, had been a resident of this county forty five years instead of forty as was stated last week. Those fellows who go out for quail do not exhibit many birds as a proof of their good marksmanship. The hunting, however, is saia to be good. Phillip Huffman, one of the track layers on the C. & A. railroad had two fingers of his left hand crushed. They were amputated by Dr. Freeman, Monday. Ansel Blossom has resigned his position as Route Agent on the Toledo, Cincinnati and St. Louis R. R. and E. C. Kern has been appointed in hi* place. The usual monthly children’s meeting will take place at the M. E. church next Sunday evening. A very interesting program has been prepared for the occasion. Jesse White has moved his gunsmith shop and shooting gallery, one door east of Schlegel’s tin shop on Monroe street. He is fixing up his shooting gallery in the best of style. The story invented for electioneering purposes has been laid away for future use. Liars and fools always keep a stock on hand. They supply mental pabulum for idle brains. Our boys are fixing up a nine of the poorest “chumps” in the country, to play base ball with Bluffton next season. If possible it is the intention to throw a game to them, just to see what they will do. A young lad of Reuben Beery accidentally let a rail fall upon bis foot during the summer, producing necrosis of the bones. Dr. Freeman removed the diseased portion by an operation this week. Each year the woods of Paulding supply less and less venison. Old hunters will patronize the old hunting ground however, so long as they can get a glance, now and then, of the antlers of a noble buck. While the big folks have been talking politics the little ones are going to school. The attendance at the public school is very large and regular. Cases of tardiness and absence are the exception. The result will be rapid and steady improvement. It is the golden opportunity of the little ones, which we are glad to note they are improving. The building used a* a voting place for this city was burned in the great conflagration. Rather than change the place a tent was pitched upon the lot and used to receive the ballots. The old tent was the subject of many funny remarks, but answered the purpose for which it was deiigned very well.

Smart houswives boast of having “cleaned house.” J. T. Simcoke, County Surveyor elect, has recently purchased a first i class instrument, to do his work with. The honk, honk of wild geese wing ing their way to more southern climes could be heard almost every night of late. Our people were hungry for political news Tuesday morning, and failed to get satisfaction. The wire, mail and grapevine were wholly unable to supply the demand. Just as the C. &A. railroad is about completed through this place, Bluffton is sighing over the B. & U. road, which will never be built and never do them any good if it was. White elephants don’t pay. At the concert of the South Carolina Jubilee Singers, at Kover’s Hall, Friday night, a young would-be M. D. from Van Wert, thoroughly advertised the fact that he was outside of more whiskey than he could carry and behave properly. The Fort Wayne Gazette failed to materialize at this place Tuesday morning, which was a source of disappointment to its patrons. On a former occasion, under similar circumstances, it failed to reach us by the early morning train. We would like to have our local correspondents sharpen their pencils and send us the local news of their respective neighborhoods. There has been a vacancy in this department of The Democrat for some time past that we would like to see filled. Personals. Rufus Allison Sundayed in Decatur. Safe Miller is hunting deer in Paulding county. Col. Moore and Tommy Wyche will leave for New York this week. Andrew Fritz and wife, of Fort Wayne, are visiting Mrs. Fritz, of this place. Charley Blackburn, of Bluffton, is doing the baking for Jas. Place, in the City Bakery. Mr. Hoagland, formerly of the woolen factory, has accepted the position of foreman of S. H. Adams' stave factory. The Burnt District Shafer Bros, and Peter Forbing have their rooms under roof, and are now secure from interruption by the weather. These rooms will be completed and ready for occupancy in a very short time. John Brock has the excavation for his cellar nearly completed. The stone and brick for the building are being delivered, and the masons will soon take it in hand. Jonathan Houston has the foundation for his two rooms well under way. Millen Burns will complete the foundation for his room by the last of the week, unless the weather should prove unfavorable. C. & A. R. R. Items. A long siding has been laid down at this station within the week. The fence enclosing the track is about one-half completed between this place and Lima, Ohio. The telegraph poles, to complete the line of telegraph along this portion of the road are lying at Lima. A gang of men will soon be put at work building the line. The iron for the bridge across the St. Marys river at this place is now lying on the bank, ready for the bridge gang, who will go to work here as soon as they complete their work east of this place. They expect to get here within a week. The switch to the gravel pit at Geneva has been completed, and the first train of gravel was received last Tuesday. There is eight mile* of iron to lay in this county. Acknowledgment. On behalf of myself and family, 1 hereby present thanks to the friends of the Presbyterian church and congregation, who favored us with their company at the parsonage, Friday evening, Nov. 3rd. They came with cheerful greetings and bountiful gifts, well calculated to make us feel that the pastorate just begun will be one marked both by the favor of God, and the good will of the community. These material tokens of esteem arc valuable, not only in themselves, but also as ex-1 ponents of Christian regard, and in this respect are beyond all pi ice. That I Heaven’s benedictions in all their ful-1 ness, may rest upon all who have thus ; pleasantly called upon their minister, I and indeed upon all the churches and I inhabitants of Decatur, is my heart ' felt prayer. A. J. Reynolds. _ __ Unclaimed Letters List of unclaimed letters remaining in the Decatur post office, Adams coup ty, Indiana, for the week ending November 6, 1882. Jessie Abrams, John W.

AN ACROSTIC. Aim, always, Miss, to act the part, Not of a jilt or silly prude, No! but with a true aud noble heart, Aim to be loving, pure and good.

Michael Fitz Gerald died at the residence of his mother in Decatur, Tuesday morning last, of consumption, aged 38 years, 3 months and seven days. He was taken sick at Leadville, Colorado, one year ano last August and immediately returned to his homo in Chicago, and had since been confined to his bed. In February last at his request he was brought to Decatur, where he could receive a mother and sisters care. He was buried Thursday morning last. The funeral services were held at the Catholic church. Henry Gass, who had for a long time been afflicted with consumption died on Wednesday, ot last week, aged forty-three years, and was buried on Friday. A young child of Nicholas Nix, aged three years in August, died of croup on Monday. Word to my Customer!. Editor Democrat : —Permit me through your valuable paper to say to my customers and friends that on the first day of this month seven years ago I started my mill. I only built with the view of running one burr at a time, but my business has steadily increased so that I was not able to do the work and give satisfaction to my customers on the account of not having capacity enough in my mill I will say to you that I have purchased about two thousand dollars worth of new machinery, which will make my mill double the capacity it is now. I think I will be able to do all the work right up to the handle. I will get this machinery and expect to have it in operation in about four or five weeks, and then I expect to make a higher and better grade of flour than has been made in this country yet. I will ask my customers to forgive me for not accommodating them as I ought to have done on the account of having too much to do. I thank you all for your liberal patronage, hoping you will continue the same as long as I do business here or deal honorable and fair with vou . City Mills, J. S. HART, Proprietor. Vert Crooked. —The crookedest of crooked work, and yet that which has grace and elegance in every crook, I may be seen in Noyes’ Dictionary Holders and Noyes’ Handy Tables. In them the fact is clearly demonstrated that if the inventor has not made the crooked straight, he has made the straight crooked, and thereby increased its beauty and utility. People in search of holiday presents will appreciate his success. A fine illustrated circular may be had free by addressing L. W. Noyes, 99 West Monroe Street, I Chicago The prices have been great- * ly reduced.

Fashion fancits. Dull red of every shade is popular. Copper color and blue is a new combination. Pelisses will be tashionable for one season only. Amazon cloth is taking the place of cashmere. Repped silk skirts are imported ready made. The wutteau plaits are used on all indoor dresses. There is very little change in tailormade cloth suits. Buttons are one of the extravagancies of the moment. Saxony embroidery and soutache braiding are used on fall costumes. Woolen materials will be worn in preference to silk for the winter. Seal brown is one of the most popular colors for the coming season. The new shade of royal cardinal promises to be a leading color this fall. The cadet will be worn by very young ladies and misses in their teens. Chenille fringes, balls and ornaments are extremely used on costumes and wraps. Cuffs are narrow and turned upwards, and sometimes have a puffed or pleated scarf drapery. Short dressas will be worn almost universally. For ceremonious occasions the train skirt is preferred. Carriage wraps arc made of Persian cloth, rich in coloring and design, and handsomely trimined with fringe. The long coat know as the tedingote will be again favored this fall; the collar and cuffs are made of plush. In plaid costumes the skirts are now all cut on the bias, making a very dressy and pretty effect of the plaid. The newest colors in gloves are Cordova leather, deerskin, polished oak, Russia leather and pale mahogny. Paniers that promise to be very stylish have lengthwise pleats instead of crosswise folds and wrinkles, yet are very bouffant. A Good Offer. The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad Company has just issued an illustrated treatise, “The Heart of the Continent,” describing the wonderful growth of the Six Great States. The book is beautifully printed, and numerous engravings of high merit adorn its pages. Any one sending their name and address with two three cent postage stamps will receive a copy by return mail, by applying to Perceval Lowell, General Passenger Agent, Chicago, Illinois. —30 5w .
