THE DECATUR DEMOCRAT BY A. J. HILL. Friday July 20, 1883. 3K The weather. i* Dover, hardly ever, just right. It is now in order to complain of the heated term. Tub hay fever eases are prcpareing for their annual hygeria. St. Loris proposes to do away with church bells as a great nuisance. Tutt shoe and leather business of the United States foots up $250,000,000. Two women at Van Wert attempted to auioide last week, but were unsuccessful Chicago sent out two female drummars. Tbey did not prove a success, and were dismissed from the service. The Bluffton and Union railroad has been forgotten of late. It has been cx•eadingly useful to a few newspapers for a paragraph. EntbRPBIAE affords the peace officer* of Van W’ert considerable exercise. It seems to be credited with enterprising ways, more ways than one. The ‘drinks” and “emokes ’ for the members of the city council of Boston, average $370 per man, or a grand total of $31,000, aud that body is not democratic either. Tub Orangemen had their annual eelebration on the 12th of July, and seemed to enjoy themselves, though they did not break as many heads and have their usual trouble. The Republican papers of Ohio, arc getting alarmed, fearing the election will go against them. They are after their old game, personal abuse of the favorite candidate, Judge Hoadley. Quite a number of old soldiers of this county will attend the soldiers, reunion at Columbus. It promises to be one of the most interesting occasions of the kind held sense the war. It eosts >BOO to get a car load of fruit from California to Chicago. That is what makes California fruit so dear. It is said that S3OO per car would afford a fair profit to railroad companies. There seems to be a big crop of woodchucks io Noble and LaGrange counties. The LaGrange Democrat •of last week says: The woodchuck trade was exceedingly dull last Saturday, but 910 scalps were received. The woodchuck is now more than meat. Till trade dollar is now fulfilling its mission. Its depreciation is das to the fact that it is not a legal tender, but is simply worth the sterling value of the silver it contains. Those who hold one and have to lose fifteen cents off the face value can charge it to profit aid loss on account of Republican legislation. The Republican party dodge carefully upon the tarriff question, but tney get a blow once in a while that is effective. The question arose in the last congress ional canvass in regard to woolen goods. A great many people could not understand it. There are hundreds of our farmers who realized the democratic side of the question was true, when they came to sell their wool this season, however. Mobhonibm is growing, spreading and taking deeper root in the far west than ever. Seven hundred emtuigrants landed al Castle Garden lately under the care of twenty-two Mormon missionaries and went straight to Utah. It reminds us that the resolution of the Republicans of more than twenty years ago that the twin relics “polygamy and slavery muat go are not likely to be soon fulfilled so far as polygamy is concerned. Parties are so evenly balanced, that Republicans fear the destruction of polygamy by adverse legislation would result in disaster and defeat co their party. Notice. Ah persons are hereby notified not t<< purchase from Lewis Andrews a certain note calling for two hundred dollars, dated about the first of March, 1883, signed by the undersigned and payable to said Lewis Andrews, for the reuon that said note is not right. Joly ;ie, 83. JACOB GOOD. A WorO to Mother.. Mothers should remember it is a most important duly at this season to look alter the health of their families and cleanse the malaria and impurities from their systems, aud that nothing will tone up the stomach aud liver, regulate tbe bowels and purify the blood so perfectly as Parker’s Ginger Tonin, advertised in our columns.— Pott. See other column. A Wtat.'i Exserlaaee. Mothers aud daughters should feel alatmed when weariness constantly oppresses them. “If lam fretful from ■jxhauatioa of vital powers and tie color is fading from my face. Parker's ■j iager Tonic gives quick relief. It builds me up aud drives away pain with wonderful eertaitty."—Buffalo Indy.

H>. «<>.:m itk >n. BY X. L. C. It. Items are scares during the garnering season. Ed. Wilder celebrated the glorious Fourth by cutting the first wheat in this neighborhood. Quite a number intend to excurt to Rome City Thursday, on conditions, however, i. «., by putting in the usual proviso about the weather. Miss Fanny Winch, of Fort Wayne, is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Kunkle. Sam Railing, of Decatur, is helping Frank Lord harvest. Mike Wurtzberger has a new hand caron whieh he goes back and forth to his home in Decatur every day, which makes it quite convenient for him. Jfart Lord has been quite lame with rheumatism for some time past. Ralph Dutcher moved into his now dwelling last week. Dr. Hastings preached his farewell sermon here las; Sunday evening. Frank Lord's horses, hitched to his mower, got frightened and became unmanageable, running away with the machine. With the exc-piion of straining the machine some, no other damage was done. Wilda Watts hauled a saw log last week containing 1,449 feet, and said he could pull a bigger one yet, just be cause it was a little girl and kicked the beam at 9| pounds. Swinging on gates may not Lave been in order a thousand years ago, but the glorious harvest moon beams down just as brightly on cooing turtle dovea n ow as it did on them. John and Sam Magley now have their tile factory in good running order at Kirtland, on the C. A A. railroad, and are prepared to manufacture all kinds of tiles at the lowest possible prices. The railroad switch at this place was completed last week and in good order, being open at both ends and billasted, making it a first class sidetrack. And now comes Monmouth, a place known to fame as having the seven most decisive battles fought ever recorded in sacred or profane history, and now comes this meek and humble place and challenges any other town of its size of being conducted iu as good proper and orderly a manner as this. But all this would not be so ware it not for our night patrolman ia the person of Doc. Grandstaff, who, unauthorized by the town authorities or by anybody else, is found nightly on his beat, but instead of carrying a loaded billy he carries his arm in a sling. Doc. says he has had it stabbed to the bone, but still it keeps him on the trot. PLKAMAST MILLM ITEMS*. BY NOBHIS HOMO. Showers quite frequently and roads rough. Corn is doing nicely in this section of the country. Wheat ard hay harvesters are now in demand. Quite a number of Gypsy tramps passed through here on last Saturday, for Philadelphia, Penn. 'Jur man explains and says he intends to build a house where said cherry trees stood. All right. Ou.- blacksmith tods have again changed hands. Mr. Joel Laughrey had a valuable cow killed by lightning on last Friday evening. Mr. Adam Ault was 65 years of age on last Sabbath. He was not aware of the fact until about 10 o'clock when hrs house was filled to overflowing. When the hour of 12 arrived the tabic was one that a King wou’d admire. He was the recipient of many valuable presents. Our enterprising timberman Mr. William Smith, has been troubled the past few weeks with boils on his person, so much so that a part of the time he was not able to work, but at this writing is better. Dayton says he is Pap, and that he proposes to don his linen pants whether school keeps or not. Mrs. Elsie Thatcher aud daughter were visiting in the country on last Sabbath. Mr. Samuel Steele now has his resi-j uence complete and byway of compliment we say it loeks well. It is so reported that a elunge will soon take place iu our midst. Wu wonder if it is true. Time will tell. XTOTICB TO NON-REBIDENTS. A—— Joseph Snyder ' ” I JI. B. Mahnrinl, j W. 11. Rodaheavor.
