Jerry Coffee and Die* Neptune, are buck from a thirty days trip I through the west. They visited. Denver. Pike's Peak. Salt Lake City. Yellowstone Park San Fran- | cisco, in fact every place of interest 1 through the west. They report a fine and the most interetsing trip they ever took. Major R. B. Allison. R K. Allison I and French Quinn left Frilay for Georgian Bay country on a ten ' days fishing trip. They have made the same tour several times and realize more than anyone else the pleasures and benefits to be derived therefrom. They went from here j t Toledo and make the two day trip from there to Little Current by ' steamer. The Georgian Bay country is said to be one of the greatest fishing places in all America. ’ J ' The biennial report of B. F. John-I son. state statistician, for the years ] 1901 and 1902. has just been com-' pleted by the state printer, and for the first time made public. The report is full of interesting figures I relating to the industries of Indiana, and tables comparing the business in various lines for the two years with former years are appended.. Agriculture, manufncturinsr. min- • ing and the stone industry are' the principal matters with which the report deals. The census, too. is treated. .The report from the various industries show that in every one there has been a great. increase during the la.-t two years. Rufus Stuckey of Berne is taking Chas. Voglewede’s place at the} shoe store this month. Charle.is off now on an extended trip ■ through the east. He will visit Brockton. Boston. Philadelphia. New i York City and other eastern cities, and will purchase before his return one of the largest and most complete lines of shoes ever displayed in this city. The modern ideas displayed in the management of the Voglewede shoe store have placed' it at the front of Decatur's retail houses. The store enjoys an enviable reputation for high grade footwear, and it is safe to say Charles will return with a new line in every respect up to date . A representative of the Democrat with Drs. D. D. Clark and J. M. Miller with C. C. Schafer as chauffieur enjoyed a drive to Ft. Wayne Friday evening in Chalmer’s new Cadillac automobile. It was de-' lightful. a dream, appreciated only by those who indulge in an auto tour. The crowd left at four o'clock and sped to the Summit city at a twenty mile an hour gait, as fast as many trains are run. Coming home we ran slower enjoying the beauties of a perfect night. There is no use talking, an auto is a model way to travel and we look forward longingly ot tie time «*■ *:<■**.' h and insist often on our company. The Cadillac is certainly a great touring car, comfortable and as speedy as is safe on ordinary roads and we predict that a number of them will be owned in Decatur 'ere i long.

Stockmen will understand why. Call on or address. J. B. Carson. Decatur. Ind., R. R. No. 2. 21 -3 1 Miss Eleanor Forbing and her ■ brother Vincent Forbing. went to j Fort Wayne Wednesday where the latter will have an operation per- , formed for the benefit of his hear ing. He was injured some time ago about the head and it is thought that an operation will reI store his hearing which is very likely impaired by some growth. Suicide Prevented. The startling an nouncement that a preventetive of suicide had been discovered will interest many. A run dowu system, jr des--1 pendency invariably precede suicide I and something has been found that ' will prevent that condition which ; makes suicide likely. At the first thought of self destruction take Electric Bitters. It being a great nervine will strengthen the nerves and build np the system. It's -also a great stomach, liver and kidney regulator. Onlv 50e. Satisfaction guaranteed by Blackburn & Christen Druggists, a The land in Madison county has been fixed by the board at 141.19 an acre. This is . higher than all counties in the state except four. It shows Madison has rich and well cultivated soil. The above figure is for assessment. Land is worth in this . county double that price for farrn,mg purp- ses. Capitalists are seeking investments in Madison county , farms because they are rich and it is profitable — Anderson New-. Not over-wise. There is an old allegorical picture of a girl scared at a grass hopper, but in the act of heedlessly treading on a snake. This is paralleled by the man who spends a large sum o' monev for building a cyclone cellar, but neglect to provide his . family with a bottle of Chamberlain's i Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a safeguard againt bowel complaints whose victims outnumber those of the cyclone a hundred to one. This remedy is everywhere recognized as ths most prompt and reliable medicine in use for these diseases. For sale by Holthouse Drug Co. a Dan Falk , seven year old son of Druggist John Falk was badly hurt ‘ Friday evening at the home of his grandfather Davis Dailey. He and a brother where riding a horse ■ about the farm when Dan fell off and was trampled by the horse. Hfs leg was badly bruised and quite a large piece of flesh torn our of his arm. It is believed that no bones were broken but the injuries are very painful. He was brought to his home east of town ard was resting easy Saturday. Dysentrey cured without the aid of a doctor. “I am just up from a hard spell of the flux" (dysentery > says Mr. T. A. Pinner, a well known merchant of Drummond, Tenn. “I used one, s nail bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and I consider it the best cholera medicine in the world.” There is no need of employing a doctor when this remedy is used, for no doctor can prescribe a better medicine for bowel complaint in any form either for children or adults. It never fails and is eisy to take. For sale by Holthouse Drug Co. a
