THE DECATUR DEMOCRAT Bl A. J. HILL. Friday, August 10, 1883. Dorsey has taken a -second growth.} The development is in time for the next campaign. On! Stanley, on! Three thousand earabines have been shipped to him for the purpose of exploring Africa. In regard to presidential aspirants it is much easier to pick out the candidate unfit for the position than otherwise. It took the republicans of New Hampshire seven weeks to elect their senator. Austin F. Pike was the lucky man. One thing our republican friends seem ready to grant every time, and that is Dorsey's wonderful flow of language. Jayhawker, in the Cincinnati Enquirer, talks about the “ice cream of truth/ It is probably the ‘-frozen affection" that Annanias had for the idea that caused his death. The Philadelphia Evening News says: “A cow owned by an Indiana farmer recently gave birth to twenty calves. Two were fully matured and are still living. The remaining eighteen were born dead and were about the size of full grown rats. The tariff is too much a question of political selfishness. The republican party have used it to foster monopolies under the guise of big wages to American laborers in which the monopolists alwavs received the lion s share of the swag. Ten thousand deaths from cholera is the hideous comentary on the administration of public affairs in Egypt under British rule. Sanitary scientists say cholera can be prevented. If this be true, it is easy to measure the awful wrongs perpetrated in the land of the Pbarohe. That was an aristocratic death, when Senor Don Francesco Borca, the Spanish minister to the United States, took his life. Not having the courage to reduce the expenses of his wife and daughter, he mustered enough to pull a trigger and died the death of a fool. General Sheridan seems of late to be drifting into the same mistake that General Grant did, that of receiving presents. He was presented with a <40,000 residence in Washington, where he will soon go as LieutenantGeneral of the army at a salary of 117,500 a year.

The Dorsey interviews in regard to the campaign of 1880 has called to the front a great many shining lights of the party who have heed arraigned. The last to say “not guilty” is Mr. Whitelaw Reid, of the New York fn‘It is to say the least a squirming time, among those who were prominent leaders in that campaign. That Tewksbury affair compels the republicans to explain the how about tanning human skins,” and caused some of Tewksbuiy’s officials to quarrel in regard to the divide between them of the receipts from “p ickled paupers " There is in connection with this investigation some very interesting data as regards the “higher civilization” at tained in Jfaasachusetts, and any quantity of material for moralizing. Major Kidd, who did good service in the late war as a member of the 11th Ind. Cavalry, informs the Courier that is the intention of tne surviving members of the Regiment to meet at the Grand Hotel, Indianapolis, on Wednesday, Aug. 15th. for the purpose of effecting a permanent organization looking to the holding hereafter of annual reunions. Lafayette, Delphi, Kokomo, Terre Haute, Sullivan, Hartford City, Portland, Decatur and Bluffton each contributed liberally of good men and true to the 11th Ind. Cavalry, and it is hoped the papers of those places will give due notice of the meet ing at the Grand Hotel, Indianapolis. — Wabath Courier. ——— ■— ■ — —— The party who went into the lot of the editor between nine and ten o’clock Tuesday nightand carried off what pears they wanted had better walk straight or the grand jury may investigate the matter. Coming in the daytime all the pears wanted could have been had by asking for them. No one has ever been refused fruit at the bouse of the editor, and only m'ghty mean people prefer stealing to asking for it. Gwtave A. Kolbe, cashier of the Deeatur National bank, was quietly married to a young lady of Delphos, 0., Wednesday last. And Decatur girls have thus lost another opportuaity. Lewis C. De' oss, attorney at law, of Farmland. Randolph county, has opened a law office in the second story «ff the Luckey building. He will locate here permanently. Require Bailey insists that you can't hurt a Christian if you knock the hair all off the top of his head. Philip Snyder, who married a daughter of John Speller, deceased, and left ahis county and settled in Wisconsin •ome twenty-nine years ago. is visiting yrieuds in this county

Base Ball. Decatur has at last a joint stock j base ball organization. John Kit g, > Jr., is president, and Shaffer Peterson, secretary. The old grounds have been secured and the diamond graded and leveled, and laid off by County Surveyor Sinicoke. Messrs. Price A Barrett, of Youngstown, 0., have been secured as catcher and pitsher respectively. A good nine has been secured with C. A. Reeves as captain. The material is good, and as soon as the boys practice sufficiently together to know each others strength and weakness they will play a good game. Tuesday, they played the J/arions, at Marion, Ind., the score standing 8 to 11 in favor of Marion. We have no particulars of the game, except that the game was thrown away by a streak of good luck with the Marions and bad luck with the Decaturs. The ■ Decaturs led from the start and had the game in their cwn hands, and by trying to keep down the score and some wretched playing lost the game. The poor support the pitcher received was very discouraging to him. Wednesday, the boys went to Lima, 0., to open the grounds there. The Lima boys have a pitcher and catcher, formerly a reserve battery of the Shamrocks, Cincinnati, 0. Pools were selling during the week at Lima with considerable odds in favor of Lima. The score of the first day s game stood 8 to 13 in favor of Decatur. Charles Spencer was telegraphed to umpire to-day s game, and went accompanied by a considerable base ball delegation. The official score and notes are not given simply because we could not obtain them. John King, Jr., says none of the “while trash’ can fool around with him, and John Bailey is laying for the colored folks It is all about a loaded cigar King happened accidentally on purpose to leave on Bailey s table. It is hard to tell whether Bailey enjoyed the cigar most or the boys the pyrotechnics. Death of John Kover. An old man and an old citizen died in this city on Wednesday evening, August Sth. John Kover was born in Pennsylvania, January 8,1799, consequently at the time of his death was eighty-four years old. During the latter part of the winter, spring and summer he has been quite feeble, and not expected to live. He has been a resident of this county some fifteen or twenty years, and latterly lived with his son in law, Daniel Schlegel. Funeral services will be held at 10 1 o’clock this morning, conducted by Rev. M. A. Teague. rLEMAXT MILLM ITEMS*. BY N’ORW HOMO. Farmers have commenced plowing for their fall crop. Cholera morbus is quite prevalent in this locality. We were mistaken in last week's issue regarding James Thatcher, it was 11. A. Fristoe A Co. E. D. Stettler is talking up the mercantile business. John Biekle passed through our village on last Wednesday evening in possession of a prairie wolf received of John Braddock, of Nebraska. It caused quite a sensation among the women and children of thia place, it being the first they hadever seen. Levi Rouland is building a new house on his lot facing Main street which adds greatly to its appearance. Mrs. Katie McMillen baa been quite sick the past week. Jesse Steele contemplates teaching school the coming winter. Bazzle H endneks, of Monroe, was in the city on Sabbath last. Edward McLeod purchased a new buggy last Saturday at Willshire, sold by Sheldon & Co. County Surveyor Simcoke was in town Friday surveying for Messrs. Fuller, Noll and McLeod. H. A. Worden plays with the Decatur bast ball club. Two more passenger trains have been put on the narrow gauge. Where is our base ball club? Come, boys, the busy season is nearly over and it is time that you were doing something in the way of practicing again and be prepared to play. Shoot now or drop the gun. A Word 10 .Mothers. Mothers should remember it is a most important duty at this season to look after the health of their families and cleanse the malaria and impurities from tbeir systems, and that nothing will tone up the stomach and liver, regulate the bowels and purify the blood so perfectly as Parker's Ginger Tonie, advertised in our columns. — Puft. See other column. Church Dedication. St. Paul s Lutheran church, situated in the south part of Preble township, will be formally dedicated, Sunday, August 19th. Rev. Zowers, pastor of one of the Lutheran churches, Fort Wayne, will preach the dedication sermon. Services will commence at 10 o’clock a m All are invited.

A New Business. L. Baxter A Co. ar- opening out a wholesale bottling works under the new building on the corner of Monroe and Third streets. They will keep in stock the beer of the Toledo Brewing Malting Company, cf To ; edo, 0., which has a world-wide reputa ion. The production of this company is not excelled by any in the United States. Those who give it a fair and impartial test will confirm what the manufacturers claim for it. Dealers and families can get it in kegs or bottles, in quantities to suit. This is a new establishment, and competition is always advantageous to the public. Give the new* firm a trial order. 3w A Wwman-s Yx oTicuee. 1 Mothers and daugh. era should feel alarmed when weariness constantly oppresses them. "If lam fretful from exhaustion of vital powers and the co) or is fading from my face. Parker's Ginger Tonic gives quick relief. It builds me up and drives away pain with wonderful certainty.'’—Buffalo ad) ’’ _ — Recorder s Notice. My term expires October 5. All parties in debt for recording must settle before that date, or fee bills will be issued for all outstanding fees after John Schvroee, Recorder. August 3, 1883.
