Monroe Items. / Joseph Wolf has recovered from a spell of sickness. ’ . Everybody in this part of the world went to the show at Decatur on last Tuesday. ( Mrs. Electa Smith, of Farmland, Ind., is visitingdjer sister, Mrs. Zerry Lewellen, of Monroe. There are two large ears of white corn ol this year’s growth on exhibition at Simcoke’s drug store, raised by Henry Lee „ near Monroe. Who can beat them? The Monroe Sunday school was well represented at the Salem picnic last Saturday. '••• J. D. Hendricks drove in-hand to a large wagon containing about thirty young ladies and gents, to the Salem picnic. Prof. Fowler, of Fort Wayne made Ir interesting prohibition speech at the Hocker Hall last Monday night. Mr. Fowler has been employed to apeak at several points in Adams county. Ott Ray drove the large wagon that contained about thirty-six small children of the Monroe Sunday school last Saturday, on their return to Monroe Jim Stevenson treated every one of them pop corn. Married, at the parsonage, by Rev. Foster last Tuesday evening, Mr. Philipp Heffner, ol Berne, to one of Monroe’s best girls, Miss Etta Brandyberry. After supper was prepared at the bride’s parents the bride and groom left for their future home at Berne. The F. M. B. A. is growing in Monroe township. The best farmers are joining and it is said that every farmer and sons of farmers in the township will belong to to the Free Man Born Alive before another year. Last Saturday night was a hideous and sorry night for Tom Shannon as he lay bleeding and blinded somewhere in this place all night from the e fleets- of getting too drunk and/ receiving a hard kicking, scratching, biting and pounding from Abe Reef. The fight was the hardest and longest contest for victory that ever took place here. They fought near thirty-five ■ minutes as they were timed accurately; Tom squealed in order to save his life. * The old lady dropped into our place of business last Wednesday morning looking rather forlorn and-with so few items from the neighborhood that wg excused her this week. She says last Tuesday, through the country, the homes of the farmers looked lonely and deserted. Now and then a piece of paper was tacked on a door reading, "Gone to the show—call to- > morrow. “Tramps not received to-day” and the like. She came to Monroe and found that Monroe was also deserted. She wondered at such business. Wandering around she came across some one who had not gone yet; she inquired after the people and was told that everybody went tbthe big ahow so she retired for the day and started on her mission of mercy, Wednesday, gathering items and securing sub scribers for the next week’s Democrat. One thing, however, she almost forgot to mention and that was Dick Haggard boasted at the Salem Sunday school picnic that he had been eating roasting ears for the past six months and thought he would have enough to last him until next spring. This, she said, beats Howard Thompson’s roasting ear story “all holler.” - Huckfen’s Arnica halve. The best salve ' in the world for cuts, bruises, sores, ulcers, salt rheum, fever sores, tetter, chapped hands, chilblains, corns, and all skin eruptions, and positively cures piles, or no pay required. It is guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction, or money refunded. Price 25 cents per bos. For sale by A. R, Pierce. aB-» 1 • < ■ - ■ . -XI

Bryant, Miss Nora Huffman, Miss Caroline Lehman, and George M. Rice. The schools all began on last Monday save the graded school located here, which opens October 6th.* On last Friday evening as a young man was returning home from seeing his ladylove just one square away, his optics spied an improvised phantom that some of the boys had prepared for his benefit. On sight he gave one groan and away he went. Although he is quite a sport on a foot race he surpassed all former records. On reaching home he fell over the fence and halloed lor “pap” to open the door, when to his consternation his ghostship followed him into his dooryard. With a bound he went around the house to a door in the rear holloing again, “Pap for mercy’s sake open the door and bring thefeun.” The door was promptly opened and when once inside he had no further use for a shooting iron. The next day when Billy was made familiar with the circumstances he said he thought the darn thing had lots of cheek to followffiim into the door yard. Moral: Buys do not call to see young ladies until you are old enough to return home without having to call on “pap” to take you in and light you to bed with a lantern of Smith & Weston’s make. Educational. The ' announcement is made, of an educational meeting to be held in Hocker’s Hall] at Monroe, on Monday evening Sept. 29th, to which all the friends of the schools and others have been invited. The meeting will be held under the supervision of Trustee Aschbaucher, of Monroe township, who is doing all in his power to advance the educational interest in his township and finds that these kind of meetings are calculated to awaken an interest among the schools and the citizens generally, perhaps to a greater extent than by any other methods.
