road has never had a better man in its superintendency than Mr. Low ell. He is keeping the Monon up to a high figure considering the dull times prevailing throughout the country, and it was certainly never under better discipline, in all its departments, than at present.

Raffles are rife in this city and it is said the boys are going up against the “sure thing” with wonderful avidity. They say one can get action on anything most wanted, among which are the following: Pop corn stand, shot gun, rifle, watch, two rings, two bicycles, a suit of clothes, and other articles too numerous to mention. The plan of operation is to sell tickets which generally range from one cent to the highest number in the drawing. Some one will get into trouble over this business some of these days and this is in the nature of a warning. “The ghastliest game of poker in which I ever sat,” remarked a well known physician, “was played on a corpse at a medical college a few years ago. A lot of students were loitering about the dissecting-room one evening about an hour before it was time to begin work. Every table was occupied by a corpse, and when one man brought out a deck of cards and some chips and proposed a little draw there was no place to play. A bright idea struck an Ohio student. There was a big, broad-chested negro subject on one of the tables, and his plan was to play on the corpse. Everybody assented just for the novelty of the thing, and I kept my stack in the hand of the deceased. It proved to be better than a rabbit’s foot, for I played in wonderful luck. All I had to do in a jack pot was to shake the chip hand and draw four cards to make three of a kind or a straight. No, I never dreamed about it. The only thing that worried me was that the crowd did not have more money.” South Greencastle. Union band meets at Mrs. Miller’s this evening. Mrs. John Payne has moved into the Batey property on Crown street. Tomorrow i* the Day. The Cincinnati Shoe Manufacturing Company was ilamagcd to the extent of $250,000.
