LATEST CITY HAPS AND MISHAPS.

Where Our People are Going; and Where Their Guests are Stopping—New* of Interest Over the City—The Rest Column In thi Paper for fjiiirk Reading — short Notes from all Parts of the Town—More Notes Some Days than Other*—Head and Keep Posted. The green ribbon is afloat today. J. W. Cole is east on a business trip. Prof. T. L. Nett' is here from Chicago. W. H. Sherwood is in Coatesville on business. Born, to G. W.

Hays is in Indianapolis today on business. D. L Harris is out again, the first time in several weeks. Dr. J. N. Sluss, of Indianapolis, is visiting friends in this city. Miss Blanche Seerest, of Putnamville, is visiting here today. T. E. Fitzgerald, a railroad man of Louisville, was here last night. Claude Hoover is slowly recovering from an illness of thirteen weeks. Mrs. Lease and Helen M. Gougar are to lecture in Brazil on April 26. That’s near enough. John Cawley shipped a car load of fine horses to Boston yesterday, and will ship another load next week. Miss Edna Givens, who has been visiting Miss Edith Waltz, returned to her home in Edinburg today. The county commissioners Jare pulling along with those low priced bids on gravel road work and up to today had filled out but eight contracts. H. C. Allen and family, of Indianapolis, are visiting at Dr. G. C. Smythe’s. Mr. Allen was formerly

a resident of Putnam county and is at present a railroad attorney at Indianapolis. Miss Ora Henton leaves Monday to accept a position as trimmer with the firm of Hosteler, Ashby. Goodbar A Wilson at Ladoga. If you spend a dollar at home, it will return to you before many days, hut if you spend it abroad it is forever lost, both to you and your community. Jesse W. Weik went to Peru, Ind., yesterday and dined with A. C. Hearss, who was until recently his superior in the p. o. inspector’s office at Cincinnati. A live enterprise—The Daily Banner Times. Chip in 10c a week and take it. You will catch the spirit and keep step with the advancement of the city. W. W. Day, who is suffering with mental aberration, was brought to this city yesterday. His home is at Darwin, where he was an industrious farmer and worker. The thermometer reached 80 degrees today in the shade, and that on St. Patrick's day. That’s hot enough to set the snakes to crawling, notwithstanding the great Ir ish patriot’s hoodoo. The editor of the Spring Place (Ga.) Jimplecute has this want advertisement : “Wanted—To trade a car load of promises and a bushel of faith for a peck of meal and a hog’s liver. Inquire at this office.” A newspaper with evidence of substantial support in its pages speakes volumes for a town. The fact that every trade seeker has an advertisement in its columns proves that the people are up with the times and favorably impresses the stranger into whose hands it chances to fall. The members and friends of the Locust Street Epworth league are urged to be present at the regular devotional meeting tomorrow evening. The meeting will begin promptly at six o’clock and will be led by Ernest Warring. Subject to be presented : “Faithful unto death.”—II. Cor., vi; 3 8. Mr. J. D. Whitted, of Martinsville, and Mrs. M. J. Blankenship, of this city, were quietly married by the Rev. Dr. Black, of Grace M. E. church, this city, at his residence on last Wednesday evening at 7 o’clock. The groom is one of the veteran newspaper men of the state. The bride is the widow of the late Captain W. H. Blankensnip.—Indianapolis Journal. Mrs. Blankenship was well known here, where she made her home for many

years.

Mr. James Little, of south College avenue, is the possessor of about seventy dollars in old Continental bills. Their denominations are forty, twenty, eight, half, onetiiird and two-thirds dollars and are in a fine state of preservation. The bills are made of fine linen and almost square, each one bearing the inscription, “To counterfeit is death.” Mr. Little said the money had been in the family sime the time when it was in use, his grandfather having sold a farm in Kentucky and received Continental money in payment. An exchange says: “The nonadvertising merchant goeth forth to his lair at the rising of the sun, and lo no man interfereth. He standeth around all day like a bottle of castor oil, and the people with the shekels come not to his shanty. He advertiseth not his wares and his face is forgotten upon the face of the earth. Who hath dried apples? Who hath soiled ginghams? Who hath calico made ‘befo de wall?’ Who hath baking powders without end? He that knoweth not the way to the printer.” This week three tramps entered the county and when in the neighborhood of Morton one of them took sick Tuesday morning with pneumonia and this morning at five o’clock he died at Geerge II. Cooper’s residence. The man’s name was Charles Henry Brown, although his companions do not believe that his true name. His residence was Broooklyn, N. Y. His business was railroading and he with several others were thrown out of em-

ployment by the hard times. His companions are Wm. C. Martin, of Wheeling, W. Va„ and Frank Hutson, of Cumberland, Maryland. The county will bury Brown. Several months ago, when Green Smith's representative was here and demanded $1500 from the city school trustees as unexpended balance, he thought it would be readily paid. It might be of interest for our citizens to know how some of that $1500 accumulated. Several years ago the school trustees purchased a $2500 government bond at par, drawing four per cent. After keeping it five years they earned $500 interest and then sold it for $500 premium when they needed the money for building. This $1000 is part of what Green Smith wants to grab. A supplemental ruling by the supreme court states that only balances from state school funds are to be returned by the township trusiees, and not to local funds, which is the last of the three funds to be applied, and does not enter into the fund to be returned. It is hoped that when the fool killer makes his annual visit he will have on his list the bright young society man who must needs to express his dislike of a song which has become a tritle old, and is listed a chestnut in his catalogue, by pretending to faint or moaning. There is nothing that delights a social gathering half so much as to see one of these iridescent intellects thus displayed. There is such a charming grace and such a suggestion of the true musical critic in his way of expressing himself. What could be more forcible than for some one to groan and faint, and say “Oh, heaven!" and then look gladly around at the faces of his audience to observe the admiration his remarkably original efforts have produced. The song may be a pretty one and all that, but everybody would rather see the bright young man perform. Yes, Mr. Foolkiller, come around with your hammer and give hin a swift tap.
