Mrs. Powell was seen on the streets of our little village last Sabbath pursuing her pedestrian exploration. Marion Oakly is lying very low with consumption. ■ Frank Young and family were the guests of E. Campbell last week. Parties desiring bee'hives can be accommodated at Steele. It has been reported that in spite of the disagreeable weather last Thursday evening a large crowd gathered at the residence of Mrs. Riley for the purpose of having a general good time, which we hope they did. Clyde Davis and James Richards have started an Armstrong buzz saw and have taken in several jobs. Their purpose is to mass a fortune by taking advantage of the rainy weather and ruin the saw mill men of Blue Creek township, if possible. As last Sabbath was the day for electing officers of the Salem Sabbath school, all natural born and unnaturalized voters were present. After the contest was over.it was reported that the elecition had gone uanimously satisfactory. It is generally believed that if the Steele Leisure club does not make some efforts to pay its erippled members for their lost time that it will lose its credit and two of their most prominent members.

Miss Lenora Huffman commenced a spring term of school last Monday supported by subscription. D. Forest Hoffman is delivering a fine lot of fruit trees this week from the nursery of C. W. Stewart & Co., of Newark, N. J., orders for which had beenfsollclted by J. W. Runyon. We noticed an editorial in the Democrat some timejago, setting forth a fact that the estate of Lot French was made a defendant in a suit for taxesjon property withheld from the assesßor’and;subject to taxation. Said claim was made up of annual items for shortage for fourteen years past, until in the aggregate some twelve hundred dollars in taxes on property so withheld was demanded. While we are entirely in favor for stigma to fall to the guilty, whether that be brother, son or father, we have reason to believe that the charges Were as groundless as it was deficient iu proof. Besides the case from birth presented an unclean face, from the fact that the delinquent tax collector with supposed imaginary knowledge, was aware that Mr. French had defrauded the public out of a sum of money, and promptly informed the heirs of this fact through the administrator, at the same time proposing a compromise. In accord with this status, namely; for fifteen or twenty dollars he would cancel the mammoth account, whteh the heirs saw fit not to accept. An objective suit was now filed with offers tendered the administrator of fifty per cent of the proceeds to help along the enterprise. At subsequent terms of court the plaintiff found himself in unreadiness to try the merits of the case. The finale was that the attorney moved to dismiss the matter, as they had bothered the estate sufficient, the court ruling in accord; had the heirs took on a scare, and effected a compromise, we predict that hereafter it would have been unsafe for even an honest man to die,, much less a rascal. Monroe Melange. Mrs. John Hendricks, living one mile south of Monroe, is very sick. Great sorrow is pictured on the countenances of many of our lady gardeners on account of the inclemency of the weather. Roswell Johnson, a student at the Angola College, visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph P. Johnson, of Monroe, last week. Why couldn’t Monroe secure the railroad shops, the talked of canning factory, a shoe factory, since we are almost certain of the county fair? We are in the center of the county, the facilities for getting in and out either by rail or mud boat are splendid. There will be preaching at the..M..E>. church next Sunday evening. George W, Martz, the Monroe hardware ■ merchant, has on hand a supply of farming implements, new buggies, and a general line of hardware, the first of the kind ever kept in Monroe. Friday night of last week Monroe had a general visit by burglars, as usual. Fefd Kessler’s saloon was entered and a little beer;taken or drank, nothing molested beside the “encouragement.” They left the room on the narrow-gage route, and visited Hendrick & Laughrey’s store, nothing was missed to amount to much. C. W. Hocker’s store was entered and Succeeded iu aecuring a gold plated watch chain and other goods to the amount of eight or ten dollars, and decamped to parts unknown. No excitement over the result. No clue as usual. _ Do you Fish? Yager Bro’s, is the place to buy your tackel.

A GREAT RE-UNION OF VETERANS, Preparations For 300,000 of Them at the Next G. A K. Encampment In Indianapolh. The growth of the Grand Army of the Republic, since its organization in 1860, has been rapid and tvidespread beyond the wildest hopes of its originators. Ten States were represented in the meeting at which it was founded. To-day, twenty-seven years later, it comprises forty-live departments, sev-enty-five hundred posts, and nearly half a million members. Within the last few years, certainly within ten or twelve, its Annual Encampments have grown to enormous proportions. At the Encampment held in Washington last year, it was estimated that no less than three hundred thousand people were in attendance. The veterans seem to realize that there will not be many years left them in which to fight their battles over again, and so they come together once each year in greater numbers than when the organization was younger. This year the Encampment is to be held in the west and Indianapolis has been chosen as the city. From a sentimental as well as a utilitarian point of view, the choice was a fitting one. Thousand of veterans remember the Hoosier Capital as a pleasant camping point going to and returning from the front. Indianapolis is the birth place of the organization as well as a convenient railroad centre, with large hotel and boarding accommodations, wide streets, and in all respects well adapted as a meeting place. It is within thirtyfive miles of the centre of population of the United States and about the centre of membership of the G. A. 11. It is near Chicago and fully three-feurtbs of the visitors to the World's Fair can pass through it without going out of their way. With the exceptionally favorable rates that will be allowed by all railways having Indianapolis connections, the coming Encampment can be attended by World’s Fair visitors at a minimum cost. Seven lines of railway connect Indianapolis with Chicago and the running time between the two cities is six hours. The arrangements for the entertainment and amusement of the veterans will be the most liberal that have ever been made. A fund of $159,000 has been raised by the citizens of Indianapolis for expenses, and the plans are of a character that assure the old veterans the greatest encampment in the history of the Grand Army. Indianapolis has already been systematically canvassed for boarding places Accommodations at a moderate price, are at present available for many thousands. Persons who desire to be sure of comfortable quarters are put in the way of securing them by the Citizens’ Executive Board of the Encampment. All who are unable to secure accommodations in hotels and boarding houses will be provided for in barracks Purdue University Agricultural Experimint Station Newspapaper Bulletin, No. 4, April 93, 1893. TESTS OF VARIETIES OF SWEET CORN. BY JAMES TROOP, HORTICULTURIST. Out of fifty different varieties of sweet corn tested at the Purdue University Experiment Station, the following are recommended as being especially desirable either for market or family •use. Cory is one of the earliest varieties grown, but is not recommended except for planting, as the quality is not of the best. Next to this in earliness is Marblehead which is much better in quality as well as in productiveness. Minnesota matures at about tlie same time as Marblehsad and, although small, is quite productive and of good quality. Huntington is a new variety, nearly as large as Egyptian and jipens with the earliest This will evidently prove a valuable addition to the list of early varieties. Crosby follows closely the early sorts ' and is of good size and quality, while Concord, maturing a Jjttle later, is large, productive and one of tbe best in ■ quality. Amber Cream bears quite large ears, grains amber colored when mature, has a rich flavor and is altogether a very desirable sort. Honey sent out several years ago differs from , other varieties in the purplish color of its stalks and leaves. It is large and of first-class quality Hickox Improved follows thoe named above and is a vigorous grower, very i productive, produces large ears, and is of excellent quality. Stowell is still ' the favorite variety, and is probably planted more largely for canning than any other variety. It is one of the best, 1 both in quality and productiveness. Silver Coin is another new variety, > ripening about with Stowell, about the same in quality, and “remaining longer in edible condition.” , ’ Ne Plus Ultra is a small variety with irregular rows, or eather no rows at all, but it is one of the sjveetest and best j-or family use in •the whole list It matures with Stowell. Black Mexican is not a popular varie- ) ty for the market, on account of its dark color, but its quality places it among ffiebesUToflable use. 1 Tbe following five varieties are recommended for a succession: Cory, Con- ! cord, Ne Plus Ultra, Stowell and Black Mexican. > This station publishes its experimental results for the benefit of fanners from time to time.

If it contains many advertisenents the subscribers complain that they take too much space. If there is a scarcity of advertising it is unpopular and thfi people won t have It. If we attend church regularly they say we go for effect. If we stay away from church they say we are monstrously heathenish. If we accept an Invitation to a wedding they say we were only invited to “write it up.” If we go to the opera house they say we go on free tickets If we are seen upon tbe streets too often they say we neglect our business. If we avoid going on the streets they say we dont hustle around after the news. If we reject a long-winded communication its author becomes furiously enraged and discontinues his paper If we publish lengthy communications our readers say we lack discretion and put in anything “to fill up ” If we neglect to decorate our office windows on Washington’s birthday, they say we lack enterprise, and that there isn’t a drop of patriotic blood flowing in our degraded carcasses If we swell out in a new suit of clothes and celebrate groundhog day they say we got our clothes in payment for advertisement, and that we are by far too foppish. If, in our fraility, we sometimes perpetrate a joke, or make a stagger at a poor little pun, they say we are exceedingly light and won’t do If we omit jokes, they say we are poor, miserable fossils. If we are single, they say we are too helpless to get married. If we are not single, they say it is a pity for our wives. If we publish a man who has brought disgrace upon his family, the friends of the family never forgive us. If we, out of goodness of heart, decline to say anything on the subject, the man’s enemies are disappointed, and we are branded as white-livered cowards. We are able to stand these raps and many more, and are always ready to receive visitors whether accompanied by a dog or not. Os course we do not claim there is any work in running a newspaper; everyone knows it is a snap. 8100 OO will buy a beautiful lot in College Addition, Marion, Indiana.
