HE ECATUR DEDMOCRAi BY a. J. HIMFriday, March, 23. 1883- I The Scientific American of last week contained an article giving the result of scientific experiments as to whether ( glucose used in the adulteration of f sugar, wines and beerwas unwholesome; the result of the experiments proved that it was not unwholesome. Republican managers are busy making their estimates of what it will cost them to elect a president in 1884. Their estimates for some of the states they hi ve heretofore claimed is set down at over a million. The outlook is anything but encouraging,except to those who are for sale. The Irish people love sensations. A reporter of the New York Sun interviewed a portion of the dynamite school of politics at the office of the Irish World immediately after the recent explosion in London. They intimated it was their work, they approved it and found more the same sort. A correspondent of the Sun singing himself “Irish Brigade, in the Num of the same date, was out in a card inviting all decent Irishmen to meet in the street, St. Patrick s day and protest against assassins.

It might he well to remind everybody that it snowed Monday. According to somebody’s prediction we were to have as many snows this winter as the number of days between the first snow and Christmas, which was thirty, and this by our record is the twentyfifth. Wild geese were seen migrating westward Saturday and Sunday evening. Mrs. Numbers was visiting in Decatur last week. The Olympic |bas shut down. The boys got to following literary pursuits. t has. M. Hill, of Van Wert, was in town one night last week. Charley is •8 lively as he used to be, but at a game of chess he is yet a novice. Mr. W alters school will close next week, after which he will teach a two months term in No. 1, or the Dent achool. Lyman Hart sold his farm of fiftyfive acres last week, to a Mr. Schiefertein, of Allen county, for #3.000 • 12,00 cash. The friends of Wilda Watts gave him quite a surprise Wednesday night, it being his birthday, at which he received a number of valuable presents. An accident happened in Smith’s ' sawmill at Williams, caused by a splintered log. by which the saw burst into ! three or four pieces, which were thrown in various directions, fortunately no one was hurt. I erry Robinson intends to move to , Decatur this week, where he will go i into the lumber business. < An error occurred in last weeks items in regard to Mr. Gallmeyer, which in justice to him we could have corrected, as reference was only had in ‘ regard to bis barn, and by examining our manuscript you will find there are 1 two separate items, which by mistake ' were put into one.

Vi,- h.I .TXH.L.’- ITEMSBY "NORttlS HOMO. Weather changeable but lor the most part delightful. The picket line is complete and skirmishes are abating. J. B. F. Null s sale was largely attended on the 17th inst. and property sold as a general thing above par. Cinders from the N. G. engines did considerable damage on last Saturday, setting on lire and burning up several rods of fence for Joseph Foster and about 40 rods for J. S. McLeod. Mis.

Mr. Frank Dibble and Miss Hattie Gilpin were united in the holy bands of matrimony on last Saturday evening in this place, at th# residence of Mrs. Kingsbury, by the Rev. D. B. Reckard. We wish them happiness and sucess in life, and may they not have any adverse winds to check the speed of their little bark, but may all be as calm as a summers morn; may they meet with prosperty and not adversity, and when the toils ot lite are over may their bark be steered to the sunny banks ot sweet deliverance wheie may they enter in to go no more out forever. It has been reported that a lady in this place not long since came to church niie evening, with Appleton s 3rd Reader, for a singing book, and did not discover the mistake until the minister announced the hymn. We wonder if it is a fact Kirby and j Fristoe report their schools being a success having an enrollment of 60 pupils? Two little daughters of R. S. Peterson, of Decatur, were visiting with friends in our community several days last week. Mr. Perry Carter, of Berne, Ind., gave this place a flying visit last Satj urday. i Miss Belle Harris completed her , term ot school in Monroe township, on , last Friday, and has again returned to . the society of her many iriends. “Occasional of old, takes everv- - There are more cats in this village than at any other one place along the St. Marys, and women should be very careful where they keep their chickens after they have them prep red for cooking, for if they do not, cats will ■ drag them off, Rev.

A WORD TO MOTHERS. Mothers should remember it is a i most important duty at this season to look after the health of their families and cleanse the malaria and impurities from their systems, and that nothing will tone up the stomach aud liver, ■ regulate the bowels and purify the blood so perfe tly as Parsers Ginger Tonic, advert sed in our columns.— Post See other column.
