Edward Coffee, who several days ago went to Dallas, Texas, to join the league base ball club of that place, returned Monday minus several pounds of weight, on account of the weather in the south not agreeing with him. Coffee played in three games while gone and made good in each. He did sensational fielding and acquitted himself creditably with the willow. In fact he was pronounced a promising young player when he found it necessary to return to northern regions responsive to his declining health. However, there are but six games yet to be played by the Texas teams. Clifford Bales, who also donned a Dallas uniform at the time Coffee did is more than making good. J. W. Gardner considers him the best find of the season in that he is pitching wonderful ball and plays his position well. The fans have become so attached to him that they rely upon his services to aid materially l n landing the flag. Bales has pitched one two-hit game and a no-hit game since being there, and has not been credited with a defeat. That is going some. o COTTON A GOOD HACK DRIVER Led All Competitors in the Holthouse Contest. Frank Cotton was brought to jail today by Deputy Sheriff Pierce from the Decatur bastile, and once more reposes behind the iron bars. He showed no signs of excitement on being pulied but remarked as he was coming over that he hoped Mother Lipkey would have beans for dinner.

Louis Holthouse & Co., the livery men, stormed the Decatur jail yesterday threatening habeas corpus proceedings, but they finally desisted when they found the nature of the indictment. They had promised Frank a banquet if he would take in S3OO on the hack during the fair and when Sheriff Myers pulled him off he had $322.70 to his credit. As a reward he was to have been banqueted at the Murray tonight with the balance of the force. The cruel law stepped in just as he had broken a record. He would have reached S4OO easily with the Friday business, and Holthouse claims that when he is sober he is the best man ever in their employ.— Bluffton Banner.

Sunday morning the three months’ and 28 days’ old babe of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Mtoyer after enduring 'the ravages of indigestion and other ailments so peculiar to Infants, for some time.

Fristoe returned Saturday from Winona, after a two months’ sojourn in that literary and social center. Mrs. Reid, of Chicago, daughter cf Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Holloway, has been visiting during the week with her parents in Geneva. She is accompanied by her son and daughter.

The headquarters of the national bank have been removed to the Brock building where the business will be conducted until the interior of the old stand is completely overhauled from top to bottom, the same being done at the present time. The work on the big improvement began in earnest Monday morning, six carpenters employed by Mann & Christen having begun arduous work in an effort to complete same in the shortest possible time. The tile to be used in constructing the floor has arrived and the wainscoating will also be constructed of this material. Today the floor of the bank was torn out in preparation for the tile layers, who are expected this week. The First National bank building will undoubtedly be as attractive as any found in this section of the state when completed. From ceiling to floor the interior will be beautified and when this portion of the work is completed, up to date furniture will be installed, which will complete the beauty of same. The carpenters expect to complete their labors within four weeks, and it is Improbable that the banking Ihstitution will enter its newly furnished home ere the approach of October first.

Rev. Irl R Hicks is out in his long range guess on September weather. , His schedule for the coming month does not contain much rain only at the autumnal equinoctial period, however, he forseeg the probabilities of frosts about the 15th. The forecast in substance is given , below : A reactionary storm period is in progress as we pass from August into September. Reactionary or antistorm periods may occur on and touching the 2nd and 3rd with unsettled weather owing to the approaching of the autumnal equinox. The first regular storm period is booked to be due from the 4th to the Bth, central on the 6th attended by some decided storms. During Sunday, the 6th and Tuesday the Bth and possibly over the 9th and 10th j there will be decided storms in most parts of the country with cold, stubborn cloudiness and rain for many days, progressing from southward to northward. On the 10th, 11th and 12th will occur another reactionary storm attended by much cooler weather, breaking up about the 15th with frost in many localities. The second regular storm period extends from the 15th to 19th. The character of these storms will be plainly indicated many hours before i they appear by reading any reliable barometer. As this storm period . falls near the center of the autumnal I equinoctial which falls on the 22nd j general and violent rain storms may reasonably be expected at this time. This spell will be followed by a reactionary storm from the 22nd to 25th attended by electrical disturbances. The last regular storm period of the month begins on the 27th and extends over to October 2nd. As the month goes out low barometer and ’ general storm conditions will be in i transit from west to east- On and j touching the 29th and 30th wide . areas of cloudiness and rain will de- . velop, bringing in a general spell of ! autumnal rain, wind and disagreeable weather.

VERMONT ELECTION TOMORROW Will Be Watched With Interest by» the Big Managers. New York, Aug. 30. —The outcome of the election Tuesday in Vermont is awaited with keen interest at the headquarters of the republican and democratic national committees in this city. The showing made in this state in the matter of the number of voters who go to the polls and the gains or losses to either party in comparison with the vote of four years ago, will influence in no small degree the shaping of the campaign in all of the eastern states. It is conceded that the republican party will win, but if the purality is reduced by reason of republican apathy, then it will stir that party in the east to renewed energy in trying to arouse enthusias mand interest. Another test of sentiment will come with the Maine election on September 15. The speaking campaign has been going on for more than a week and great interest has been shown. The republicans do not expect to get as large a plurality as they did four years ago. but are struggling to secure from 12.000 to 15,000. which the state republican leaders term their nominal plurality.

Now that the time to convene the public schols is near at hand, the state board of health are taking occasion to warn tne school trustees that the buildings must be in good condition, sanitary and otherwise. Dr. Hurty, the secretary of the state beard of health is sending out the warnings, which call attention to the fact that the rules of the board demanding cleanliness and ventilation have all the force and effect of law and the penalty for violation is a fine of not to exceed SIOO. The circular letter says: "The children are entitled to every condition of good health and to every condition necessary to their progress and it is acutally a sin not to give them such surroundings. Bad food, insufficient clothing, foul air in unventilated bedrooms, insufficiently lighted and unevenly warmed school rooms, and desks which do not fit the children are all handicaps to progress and health.” 0 Messrs. M. J. Wertzberger, John R. Porter, D. M. Hoagland and Joseph Helm, who were selected to the janitorships of the four wards, began their duties Monday and during the week they will be busy renovating the various rooms, preparatory to the opening of the 1908 school term which will occur next Monday. Never before have the prevailing conditions been more favorable for a successful term of school than is the case for the term to begin next Monday and every patron of the public institutions should lend his assistance for tbe advancement of same.

Secretary Morrison, of the American Federation of Labor, had an extended talk with the national chairman today on details concerning the plan of the coming labor campaign for Mr. Bryan. William J. Conners, the chairman of the Democratic state committee, was at the state headquarters today and said he expected to be in the city the most of next week. Asked what he thought of the interview with Chairman Woodruff yesterday, Mr. Conners said: “Looks as if they were trying to kill Hughes off. At least that is what I would mean if I gave out an interview like that.”

The republican senatorial convention held here Saturday, closed at five o’clock and the ort Wayne delegation left at once on the specials for home. Judge Vesey’s speech was as predicted a plea for votes on the ground of the local option plank. The resolutions as presented by the committee W. . Lower, P. L. Andrews and C. L. Walters of this city and S. A. Wood, I. N. Taylor, W. E. Doud and A. R. Walters, of Fort Wayne, was along the same line. In a half hours’ speech Jesse Sutton one of the able young attorneys of this city, seconded Judge Vesey's nomination and proved himself master of the opportunity. He arraigned the democratic party on the temperance question, paid high tribute to Lincoln and Rosevelt and concluding gave praise to Judge Vesey whom he said had all the qualities for a place of power and trust such as serving the people in the Indiana senate. Mr. Sutton’s address was one of the features of the afternoon and he was heartily applauded. The afernoon’s program closed with a short speech by Attorney General James D. Bingham in which he fairly outdid any prohibition orator heard here in years.

Thomas R. Marshall and wife, John W. Kern, John Isenbarger and Judge Lairy made the trip from Remington to Logansport Friday evening in a baggage car. Marshall was billed for a speech at Winimac Satruday with no way to get there, so permission was obtained from the railroad company for the party to ride in the baggage car of a special train that had been run from Logansport. The party climbed into the car like trainjumpers and made the trip in good shape. Mr. Marshall has now been absent for three weeks and is delivering speeches every day.—Columbia City Post. Rather than to disappoint an audience, Mr. Marshall would have walked the distance, for he is well termed the tried and true statesman. There is no one who is fair, but what considers the gubernatorial honors to the honorable Thomas R. Marshall. He is making a clean, vigorous campaign and is greeted by vast audiences wherever he is scheduled for an address. In and about Decatur, Mr. Marshal has a host of admirers, both republican and democratic, who will work tooth aud toe nail for his election to the highest office afforded by the state, doing so with a knowledge that he will thoughtfully observe the confidence reposed in him and give us a n honest administration for the next four years. — ■■ - o MRS. MOSER BROUGHT HOME J. E. Moser went to Fort Wayne Sunday morning and accompanied his wife home, arriving on the two o'clock car. Mrs. Moser, who was operated on about three weeks ago has recovered rapidly and it is believed will now enjoy good health. She is quite weak yet, of course, but should soon be entitrely recovered from her Illness.
