Company A made the best time on dismounting piece, carriage and limber. Their first trial was in loj seconds: then after taking a rest they sailed in and after an incredibly hurried scramble lined up with the watches showing 12.1 seconds. A great cheer saluted this performance, as it lowered the world's record 4 i seconds. The best work the company made on mounting carriage, piece and limber was 324. Company B, after two trials, could not show up better than 14J on dismounting, but on mounting they distanced the fleet-footed Company A, by

In his deatli your county loses one of her best citizens, the cause of humanity one of its staunchest friends; your community one of its most u-eful men; your neighborhood one of its leading spirits. As a business man James T. Hanna had few superiors. I need not speak of his success. Honesty, integrity, frugality and perseverance were some of his cardinal virtues. He was possessed of great will power, a master mind anil noble impulses; never yielding to discouragements and atteuding strictly to his own business. You will indulge me, 1 know, if I hear personal testimony for while some of you have known him longer, none of you knew him better. No man ever enjoyed a more intimate acquaintance witn him nor loved him

There was once something said about voting for Cleveland and dollar wheat.
The issue of the DePauw Weekly was so weak this week that its ed itor dubbed it the Wettkly and let it go at that. The paper seems in troublesome lines, and there is an apparent lack of harmony among its numerous managers that is proving detrimental to the sheet. They should get together and make a better paper. In the meantime the Greencastle public is not suffering for college news. Tlie Banner Times will continue, as it has heretofore done, to give the college news along with other city affairs, in a newsy, concise manner when it is fresh. It costs but ten cents per week delivered daily to your residence.

Plato foresaw, makes so many cultivated men in these days less natural in their speech and less eloquent than the most untutored savages. The effort of trying to learn by memory will make the playing more careful, as every note must be, so to say, photographed in one’s brain. By the mere fact of repeating over and over again the same thing the true reading of it will be unfolded, which

A NEW IDEA. You will remember that Goliah was very much surprised when David hit him with a rock. He said such a thin" had never entered his head before. ANOTHER SURPRISE. Seme of our people may be surprised when we tell them that the best Daily paper for their needs is the Daily Banner Times, of Greencastle, Ind. HERE’S THE idea: Perhaps you are not taking it. If not, why not. It’s cheap enough, prompt as is the coming of the day, and has all the local news at the right time.
IT’S
ADVERTISING. Merchants who have tried it say it’s the best advertising medium in the city. That's another surprise, but the advertisers will testify to the fact. DON’T DELAY. Don’t wait for some philanthropist to come along and give you warning that you are missing the best thing of your life. We will tell it to you. ADVICE FREE.
