W. C. T. U. Notes. The Union decided at their last meeting to vacate the itall they have occupied for the past two years. The regular meet ings will hereafter be held at the homes of members. Miss Willard says what struck her most forcibly at the National I’rohibition Convention at Cincinnati was this: “Noto bacco smoke discolored the atmosphere of the hotels, no bar was gaining patronage, no gambling house or haunt of sin a single penny richer, because a thousand politicians, most of them men, had been turned loose in the Queen city of Ohio.” One hundred and twenty women dele gates, including alternates, were in attendance at the National Prohibition Conven tionin Cincinnati. AU of these were chosen by prohibition political conventions, none by the W. C. T. U. and these women were highly honored amo'ig the men with whom they stood as full representatives wiih a free vote. They have all one controlling purpose, the prohibition of the liquor traffic, anji their moral si.pport goes toward national prohibition Miss Willard said the other day: There ttas never been a saloon, or hotel bar, or a public billiard hall in Evanston. Out officers favor enforcement; our citizens insist upon it; the W..C. T. U. keeps up the ducat ion of public sentiment year in arid year out. Our White Ribbon Kindergarten trains forty or fifty little people from the least protected homes in the w y of total abstinancc; the temperance text hook is in our pujrlic schools; temperance meetings are often held, and we have some pastors who believe it to be their duty to preach often and boldly on the sin o' liquor drinking, liquor making and liquor selling. .Real estate men know that it i« a good thing financially to have Evanston advertised as a prohibition town, and school authorities krow that tt helps our iustitutions. I believe that no one thing could possibly bring so much sanity, health, happiness, cleanliness, morality and religion to cur people as the banishment of grog shops. There is enlv one way to right a wrong and that is to abolish it. I’d rather vote tor what I want and fail, than vote for what I don’t want and succeed.—Col. Eli Ritter.

DECATUR, ADAMS COUNTY, INDIANA, FRIDAY, JULY 15, 1802.

maaHaaManwnßmanwawramaamßMawiMWßn City Improvements. It is not ncces“ary for us to say that we are proud of our city. Everyone knows that things are moving along nicely. The spring was very wet and many people predicted that a halt had been called on advancement itself. By} such is not the case. Our city has been improving rap idly. One business block is building on Monroe street which will add materially to looks as well as the business of that part of our town. The Burt house is unheadway. The front part of the inn has been removed and soon a new brick structure will grace t'-'e place where the old frame hotel stood. The new home of Dr. DeVilbiss which is situated on the corner lot at the junction of Adams and Winchester streets, has assemed the proportions of an elegant dwelling. Many other improvements ton numerous to mention in this short jrticle is being made. Time is precious an i space scarce, but we cannot neglect the improvement made by the county. This consists of a s aunch seat starting from the south gate of the court house yard and extending around to the southeast corner of the lawn. The >eauties that can be see t tn this new structure are many. Some say it is being erected for the farmers and people from country in general to re<t their weary bones after harvest when they come to town. We notice that never sweats aee willing to hold the seat down until the farmers come. We would describe this beautiful structure but we would prefer allowing you the privilege of coming to the city to see it. It will suffice to say that it is in perfect harmony with nature and the hot weather. Our people in town will have to be careful of their cows. If they are allowed to pass there, there will be no need of any fence in town since the fine structure has been completed. It will be a joy forever. A lasting monument to the taxpayers of Adams county, arid to our commissioners. Well,come in and see it for yourselves and we think you will want to take it heme with you. Obituary. Franklin W. Miesse was born March o, 1837, in Lancaster, Ohio, and died July rq, 1892 aged fifty five years, three months and 14 days. He leaves a son, Willie, a mother, two sisters and a brother with many other triends to mourn his departure. When quite young he came to tills town with his parents where he has resided ever since When this paper under the name of the Eagle was started, he was a typo on tt and since that time he has been engaged in different occupations until a short time before his death when he sold his grocery Jo J, Niblick & Son. His wife died abont ten years 'ago. The funeral will be from the house at 4 o’clock p m to day. Our Sister. Another link of opr family has been broken, Our loving sister, Anna has been called to that unknown beyond, where to its all is dark and dreary. While we hope that Ihose who have gone before a: e resting in thit beautiful beyond Jut we are told ol by those who are called to d> the work of the Creator. Our sister left us on Tuesday July 7 h from that terrible disease la grippe. The funeial was from the home of our friathpr in Newton coun'y. \Ve interred her in the cetn tcry at Geodland, At Rest.

The ApolloQuartetie company from the school of music, DePauw~ University is making a summer tour and will be heard in Decatur, July 20th. They will be at the Christian church. The County Assembly of the order of F. M. B. A. met in this city last Tuesday. They transacted but little business, but ad journed to meet at Monroe on the Ist of August at 9 o’clock a. m , at which time C. A. Robinson, President of the State Assembly will be present. There will be a meeting of the petitioners for a Chanter of the Eastern Star at the Masonic Hall on Monday evening All petitioners please take notiee. Daniel Kitson on last Saturday met with a very painful accident, in walking around the yard he struck hisfoot Against a* hard - pefUtFated his shoe and foot running about the whole length of the foot from the end of the big toe to the heel. It took a number of pul’s to draw it out, when it was found to be a piece of an umbrella stay, Dan goes or crutches now. If that combination of s -at and fence that holds the court house yard so firmb in its embrace can endure the ferocity of the common jack-knife until cold weather the commissioners intend to put a gas heater under the seat of the fence to warm the cold in the winter. That will insure comfort to the loafer the year ’around. An experienced plumber can find employment by calling on the commissioners.
