I Anderson Ind Mav 27—■**■- | 'county went “dry” by a majority of 1,258 votes funoffleial). The returns from the start Indicated a close conj test and as the reports Increased the 1 i crowd around the Union building I' swelled until a mob of 3,000 were gathered. As the returns indicated a gain for the “drys” the cheering increased. When the result was de- | teremined beyond question whistles 1A • the city were blowing and bands paraded the street. The “wets” finally conceded the county lost when the returns from the city precincts showed smaller majorities than they expected, and when the last precinct R reported, the “wet’> headquarters were deserted. Each of the fourteen townships in the county returned a I'dry” majority excepting Anderson township. In some of the precincts the vote was almost even, while in others the majorities ran 70 per cent, “wet” or “dry.” English, Ind., May 27. —Crawford I county went “dry” by a majority of 819. Every township gave majorities averaging from 17 to 218. There was I only one precinct in the county which went “wet,” and that gave a majority of 10. I'orrents of rain poured last night and this morning, but the polls * were opened on time and many were I voting parly in the day. Some voters were here from five miles distant I This was as,quiet an election as was | ever experienced in the county and only about 60 per cent, of the total vote was cast Toe women of the different churches had the tables loaded down with all the viands imaglnI able for the members of the election | boards and no partiality was shown to the “wets” and “drys” on the | boards, but they all partook. The Rev. Mr. Howertln, the Methodist s minister, stood at the polls all day in the rain and Instructed the people how to vote. There was absolutely no stir, not a drunken person was seen in the village and the “wets” made no effort whatever. Many “wets” did not go to the polls to vote. The druggists of English have made the assertion that if the county votes “dry” they will quit selling liquors of any kind. Spencer, Ind., May 27.—Owen county today gaie a “dry” majority of nearly 1,000. The vote cast simply confirmed the general belief that the county would give a substantial margin for the temperance cause, making the county in the “dry” list for two years more. Today’s election is conceded to have been the quietest one ever held here. The order was generally good. One arrest was made for intoxication, but there were no attempts to vote Illegally. A heavy vote, probably 80 per cent of the total poll, was cast in nearly all precincts of the county. The weather was unfavorable, rain falling during the, forenoon, and the clouds remaining heavy and threatening during the remainder of the day, but these conditions kept the farmers from working and served to increase the vote from the rural districts. .—o ; — Rev. B. Earl Parker, son-in-law of J. D. Hale of this city, and one of tjie most promising young minister o i±n the North Indiana conference, Wlverde the baccaulaureate sermon at Nappanee last Sunday evening and his address was indeed scholarly. He featured the discourse by dwelling on the theme “The Eighteen Silent Years . of Jesus.” After appealing eloquently to the young graduates along lines of spiritual education, the able minister closed the great talk by the following beautiful language: “Over us bends the sky of a common future,” the speaker concluded. "We bear the same burdens, share the same responsibility, solve the ■same problems. Let us stand togethj er. Let us here highly resolve to put some thought, some act, some deed of generosity, some personal sacrifice I into the age in which we live, that will help to dry a tear, or scatter the gloom of some darkened lives. If we stand together in this compact here we shall stand together in that city not made with hands, that city splendid, whose spires and battlements gleam in the light of the day I that fadeth not I thank you. Godspeed and farewell.” . -O' " —— . HAS RETURNED FROM KANSAS I Harry Jeffries has returned from I a month’s trip in Kansas and he rell ports some very exciting and interI esting experiences in that state. Har- | ry went to Basine, Kansas, and indulgI ed in hunting during the most of the I time he was there. He succeeded in I killing several prairie chicken, badI gers, prairie dogs and other animals. | He brought several animals home I with him and they will be on ex- | hibitlon at the Hensley jewelry store | in the near future. | o | True Daugherty, of Lafayette, is in I the city visiting relatives and attendled commencement exercises. His | sister, Miss Fancheon Daugherty, | graduates this year.

- If there frw eoulin an -ofDdcaturl : who doubts the future of the Coppock t [Automobile company, they might . change their minds considerably by i spending a half hour at their plant. - We tried it the other afternoon and i were surprised at ’the revelations, i There is system in 1 everything they are doing. A new addition is a grey iron foundry, the cupalo just near- [ Ing completion, and when ready for . operation the Coppock will £o all their ■ own iron and brass casting. This will s make the plant a most complete one, . and enable them to make more of the . parts to the automible than any sac- ; tory in the entire country, big or liti tie. Just at present they have under l construction eleven cars, ten of which t will be delivered next week and one, the largest they have ever turned out i on June 15th. The cars are sold to i dealers of various kinds, three qre , taxicabs and go to the Bird Transfer company at Indianapolis, a delivery car is sold to the Court House grol eery company, others to the American t Creamery company, the City Parcel j Express company, Royce & Wishard, ! who are dealers in autos, a truck for i the Polk Creamery one for the Day r Credmery, all in Indianapolis. They : are also turning out two models H i runabouts, one to be used for demon- > strating purposes here and the other i at Fort Wayne. The pay roll at this , factory now numbers thirty-seven, the i most of whom draw splendid wages. [ Everything, is conducted in a sysl tematic manner. Frank Confer is a l cashier of the various parts and ev- • ery piece that is taken out by a ■ workman is registered, weighed and i accounted for. It would please any i patriotic citizen of Decatur to go through this place and we advise you ! to try it. t ' i While in the neighborhood, we also > took a squint at the Ward Fence r factory, where they are operating at j full blast, and where there are slxty- ■ nine men on the pay roll. It’s a busy ■ factory, and the floor is covered with fence of all kinds, billed to every > state in the union and elsewhere, i while on the side track stood two i big box cars loaded to the brim yrith Ward fence. The trip convinced us of several > facts. One is that, more than a hundred men are at work in Decatur factories than were a year or two ago. 1 Another is that both of these plants are only in the stage of infancy, and ’ will in time become big concerns. A ' third is that Decatur is the best town on the map. O' - Another Decatur boy who has made good away from home is Clarence ■ Wertzberger, a son of Mr. and Mrs. I Michael Wertzberger of Third street, i For several years he has been engaged . at various kinds of work in the south- . west and has become an expert r countant. Recently he was employed • by the city Oklahoma, to ; make a report of the office of the city I treasurer of that place.' His report, [ a very extended one, was published in the papers of that place, and showed the exact condition of the funds • of the city, the figures extending into > the hundred thousands, and so comi plete and satisfactory was his work . that he was fnmediately employed to ; do similar duties in the offices of theI city clerk and the city superintendent, > at a good salary. In his report he t recommended that the city employ a ; man whose duty it would be to take ■ charge of the accounts and collections i and shoved that the city had lost . many himlreds of dollars in the past . by not having the proper system of collection, many water users not be- . ing on the books. The Sapulpa papers speak very highely of his ability and ) his report was a very satisfactory one i to all concerned. o- „ ; Harry Harruff returned last week t from a business trip in Michigan and while gone he had a most enjoyable t time. The eighteenth of this month • Mr .Harruff, accompanied by Harvey Lee of this city, left for Freemont, t Michigan, where the latter purchased t a farm of sixty acres which is a very r valuable one. Mr. Lee returned last Saturday and Mr. Harruff remained r for a few days longer on account of ■ important Last Monday Mr. Harruff met two friends, Schischo brothers, and with them he enjoyed the time of his life on a fishing expedition. The three gentlemen went i to White river where in less than ■ three hours , they speared 585 pounds ■ of fish. Mr. Harruff brought fifty • pound of the fish home. He says ■ Michigan land is rapidly growing in » value and that it is a very desirable i place to live. There are said to be • some great opportunities in that state . and many Decatur people have already i taken advantage of them. Mr. Harruff goes to Michigan often and has always » been successful in selling land on the trips. He reports the most pattering prospect for a great fruit crop. — oMiss Alice Sixby, of Bluffton, who pas been visiting with Miss Marie , Allison and atending the commencement exercises, returned to her home.

NO BIDS FOR LOB DITCH BONDS Auditor Michaud Had No Bids for Advertised Bonds Today. Auditor Michaud drew a blank in the sale, of four bonds, the balance due for the construction of Adams county’s share of the lob ditch. It was all paid but eight hundred dollars and this amount was divided into four bonds of two hunarea dollars each, due in one, two, three and four years with interest at six per cent., the interest payable annually. The rate of Interest was all right but the amount of the face of the bonds being so small, there were no buyers, and the same went by default. The contractor will have to take the bonds, and he will likely find a sale for them later on. , O —rrev. McCarthy coming home Gave Up Ministerial Work in Oklahoma on Account of Health. Because of a slight hemorrhage of the brain, the Rev. W. E. McCarthy, one of the best known ministers of the Northern Indiana Methodist conference, and who recently accepted work in Oklahoma organizing churches, has On the advice of his physician given up the work, at least temporarily. He may return to it in the fall. He will devote his time to the management of hig daughter’s farm near Portland, and to light out-door work. A divorce was granted the wife of Rev. McCarthy a few months ago, and . he made no fight to charges alleged. She is an aunt of Mrs. E. C. Vaughn. —Bluffton News. o o RICH RED BLOOD. Means Rosy Cheeks, Clear Complexion, Bright Eyes and Plenty of Energy. What does rich, red blood mean? it means brains, vitality, ambition, hopefulness, persistency and everything worth living for. But you can’t have rich, red blood, if your digestion is Imperfect; and your digestion is certainly imperfect if you have sour stomach, bad taste in mouth, lump of lead after eating, belching of gas and nervous unrest. So far reaching is the effect of Indi* gestion, that many times the eyesight is affected. If you have indigestion or any symptom of stomach distress or agony Holthouse Drug Co. will sell you a mighty remedy for 50 cents, and guarantee it to cure or money back. The remedy is called Ml-o-na. Its powerful, reconstructive action on the stomach is little short of marvelous. It tones up, strengthens and puts new life and energy into the worn out stomach in a few days. It cures by removing the cause. If you are a sufferer, try a large 50 cent box. It’s a small price to pay for banishing indigestion. Ml-o-na is cold by leading druggists in every town in America, and by Holthouse Drug Co. in Decatur for 50 cents a box.
