Adair will speak in the court room in this city on Thursday evening of next week. October 14. At this time he will discuss the issues of his campaign, evading no charge that has been brought against him, and giving In a clear and concise way his record during the last session bi congress. He evades nothing, and at the time he speaks here, is unsuous or meeting and speaking to many of the eld soldiers. It is safe to predict that he will be given a great Ovation on October 14. Democratic meetings have been ar ranged for Monroe, Saturday evening. October 10, and Election school house French township, Wednesday evening October 13. Hon. George E. Clark, of South Bend, opens the campaign for the Republicans with a speech at the court room here on Thursday evening of this week. o ■ — WOULD MORTGAGE THE FARM. A farmer on Rural Route 2. Empire, Ga., W. A. Floyd by name, says; “Bucklen’s Arnica Salve cured the two worst sores I ever saw; one on my hand and one on my leg. It is worth more than its weight in gold. I would not be without it if I had to mortgage the farm to get it.” Only 25c. at all dealers. o A party of Adams county men, consisting of Chris Selkine, J. Sheeler, Martin Grote, William Macke, Martin Ehlerding and Fred Scheiman left Decatur Tuesday morning for Ft. Wayne leaving there for Texas, where they will remain for two weeks with the prospect of buying Panhandle land. The party left Fort. Wayne for Chicago from where they went to Kansas City, Missouri, and from that city they will go straightway to Texas. These men, with the exception of Mr. Scheiman. are farmers, who have accumulated fortunes by their progressiveness and before returning they will, without doubt, buy Texas land for speculating purposes. The party was joined at Fort Wayne by J. J. Thorpe, a land agent, who has disposed of hundreds of acres of Texas land to Adams county people.

A JEWELER’S EXPERIENCE. C. R. Kluger, the Jeweler, 1060 Virginia Ave., Indianapolis. Ind., writes: ‘ I was so weak from kidney trouble that I could hardly walk a hundred feet. Four bottles of Foley’s Kidney Remedy cleared my complexion, cured my backache and the irregularities disappeared, and I can now attend to business every day. and recommend Foley’s Kidney Remedy to all sufferers. as it cured me after the doctors and other remedies had failed. The HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO. — It is now officially announced that the Cleveland & Indianapolis railroad, a traction lino, has been completely financed so far as the branch from Norwalk to Bluffton is concerned, and that construction work will begin soon, some work on the eastern part of the road being done this fall. It is the plan to rush the work next summer. and if possfTiTe to complete the entire line. The road runs from Norwalk to Van Wert, thence to Decatur and from here to Bluffton, passing through one of the richest and busiest sections of Ohio and Indiana. The road should be one of the best to be fund anywhere, connecting at Norwalk for Clevleand and at Bluffton for Indianapolis. —o According to Huntington papers about fifty women in that city were victimized by the Muncie Garment company on the scheme of paying 50 cents each itr positions as seamstresses. The agent took up the matter the same as the agents here and in Decatur, but the Huntington papers say that the company has replied in an evasive manner and have not righted matters. —Bluffton News. The Coppock Motor Car company has just completed a beautiful car.

Revival services are now in progress at the Evangelical church, this city. Rev. J. w. Zetzner, of Huntington. preached the sermon Monday night, taking for his text John 4:34-38. The speaker laid special stress on the importance of the Lord’s work; the duties of the workers; the certainty of the Christian wages. Rev. Metzner is the pastor of the Evangelical church at Huntington, Ind. He is a forceful speaker and a most devoted pastor. Last night’s audience indicated that the membership are thoroughly in earnest and ready to co-operate with the ministerial visitors. There were present Rev. J. Wise, of Fcrt Wayne; Rev. C. Geist, of Markle; Rev. W. S. Tracy, of Bippus, and Rev. P. L. Browns, of Kendallville. At 9 o’clock today the ministers met at the parsonage to organize to facilitate and render the work more effective. Rev.

Y — o~ George Braun ig at home from Fort Wayne, where he went to confer with officials concerning the payment to him of the SIOO reward offered for the capture of the (automobile thieves. He was treated nicely and received the money he has expended for expenses, although he did not receive the reward for the reason that the tw'o men arrested. Hickox and Campbell, have changed their minds and will not plead guilty. Their story now is that they did not intend to steal the car, but had only borrowed it to run to Decatur to take their lady friends out for a ride, expecting to return it during the night. This story may sound funny in court, but. of course, the reward will not be paid until the affair is settled. However.'if Hlckcx escapes punishment for this offense he will likely be brought here and prosecuted for stealing a diamond from Mr. Starr. It is also stated now that Harvey has confessed that it was him who stele a watch and some money from one of the Fort Wayne ball players when they were here this summer. Certain it is that if he is such a crook, some one should make it their business to see that he is well taken care of until he has been taught a sufficient lesson.

SAVED HIS BOY’S LIFE ‘‘My three-year-old boy was badly constipated, had a high fever and was in an awful condition. I gave him two doses of Foley’s Orino Laxative and the next morning the fever was gone and he was entirely well. Foley’s Orino Laxative saved his life.” A. Wclkush. Casimer. Wis. The HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO. o Tax paying time has again slipped around, apparently without people knowing it, and less than one month now remains in which to pay the fall installment and save the delinquent penalty that must be added. So far there has been but a small per cent of the total paid in and yet less than one month remains in which to square the docket and save the delinquency. The total collections thus far are below the average and there must necessarily be a month of busy days if the list is to bo squared up. In addition to the county taxes the state treasurer each month sends out a statement to County Treasurer J. F. Lachot insisting on the funds due the state being sent in post haste as the state is in dire need of all funds due it to keep above the surface ot increased expenses in the way of new office'-s and increased salaries. —o — HAD A CLOSE CALL. Mrs. Ada L. Croom., the widely known proprietor of the Croom Hotel, Vaughn, Miss., says: “For several months I suffered with a severe cough, and consumption seemed to have its grip on me, when a friend recommended Dr. King’s New Discovery. I began taking it, and three bottles affected a complete cure.” The fame of this life saving cough and cold remedy, and lung and throat healer is world wide. Sold at all dealers, ,50c. and SI.OO.

MRS. FORD LOST POCKETBOOK Contained Twenty Dollars— Was Found But Not Returned. While Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ford, of near Monroe, were driving heme from this city Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Ford dropped her poeketbeok, containing twenty dollars from the buggy. Men who were hauling stone along the read saw two men who were driving in a buggy behind the Fords stop and pick the purse up, and it was supposed they would return it before this time, but as they have not, it is probable that some action will be taken to enforce them to do so. Perhaps every one does net understand that in the eyes of the law, a person who finds a lost article and knows to whom it belcngs and fails to return same to the owner is liable for stealing, but such i s the case. WHERE BULLETS FLEW. David Parker, cf Fayette. N. Y., a veteran of the civil war, who lost a foot at Gettysburg, says: "The good Electric Bitters have done is worth more than five hundred dollars to me. I spent much money doctoring for a bad case of stomach trouble, to little purpose. I then tried Electric Bitters, and they cured me. I now take them as a tonic, and they keep me strong and well.” 50c. at all dealers. o Suffering for the past several months with kidney trouble and old age, Ephraim Mosure, aged seventyfive years, five months and twentyfour days, passed away at his heme in Vera Cruz at 2:15 o'clock Sunday morning.

The plan is an outgrowth cf the formation of the Automobile Protective association. A meeting of these interested wilt be held at the Wayne club some time during the coming week,, and it is hoped and believed that the project can be pushed to completion. It is estimated that the capital necessary to the proposed movement will amount to SIO,OOO.
