have made a mistake i»i making tho ch:in;r«‘. Mr. Shoptuugh’g udmluistrati^n was not a model one in every respect, and this paper m ule e iticism upon it at various tin."-; ns it wns apparently de ~ ; . I. We referred usually to ili “ political management of the j institution, rather than toils tinaueinl management, as in the latter line Mr. Shoptaugh was a success. The annual report of the secretary of the state board of charities places Putnam's expense for the poor at a low figure, and it is due to the fact that the office of superintendent has not been changed every year or so. Some of our neighboring counties have been making changes quite frequently, and their expenses are much higher. Mr. Shoptaugh was running the farm as well ns any one could have dene it; he had had years of experience, but he is now cast aside to make room for a relative of one of the county commissioners, and the public will have to put up the money to pay the increase in expenses necessary to teach n new man the business. Tins is the way democracy works in Putnam, and this secret poor farm dual is but another batch of mismanagement Inasmuch as the change has positively been made, it would now be in order for our democratic papers in Putnam to tell their subscribers that there is a new euperintehdent out there, and incidentally mention that he is a brother-in law of one

of the commissioners.

ago. The ladies were received courteously by the business men around the square, and were not turned away empty in a single in stance, and many articles of household necessity were collected. At 7:30 yesterday evening a delega lion of about thirty persons led by Rev. M. F. Collier and his estimable wife proceeded to Mr. King’s home with their collections, and after presenting them, a most im pressivc song and prayer service was held, which served to strength en their resolutions for good.

Faust for Friday. Mr. John Griffith presents his spectacular edition of “Faust” at the opera house next Friday night. The production differs from others in that its attractiveness is materially enchanced by the introduction of scenic and mechanical effects; some of which are said to be gems of ingenious stage settings, calcium and electricity being largely drawn upon to aid in the arrangement of the artistic scenes. Mr. Griffith is an actor of experience, who has made the character of Mcphistopheles a protracted study; imbuing it with most intense subtlety always, even in bis most tragic pass - ages showing Satanic shrewdness. In the scenes with Dr. Faustus he is appropriately forming and brow beating as occasion demands. His flirtations with Dame Martha de velopes lithsomeness that repells, lint will amuse. A distinct reader and thoroughly acquainted with stage technique, his impersonation is said to be perfect in an artistic sense. The supporting company is capable, many well known artists being in the cast.

About the best that can Vie said of the defunct congress is that it did not do all the bnnn it might have done, and the democratic majority should receive no credit for that, as their intentions were to do all the harm possible, and it was only by the alertness of the republicans that they were prevented from carry-j

In summing up the work of the last two years of congress the 7feview of Reviews, a non-political

aiagci<.iuc, says:

It would not seem ill-advised to declare that the whole financial history of

modern nations furnishes no instance of incapacity so great, of statesmanship so utterly wanting, of common sense so pitiahlv abdicated, as our own country lias shown in the past two years. There are lots of local democrats who have time and again added

and again

their testimony to the above.

Willis Marks, the new superintendent of the county poor farm, is now in full control, and George Shoptaugh lias been retired, and the record of the change will be made at the present session of the commissioners. The Uanniu Times lias nothing against Mr. Marks, but it believes the commissioners

Denman*Hast mg*. ( rawfordsvllle Journal. On Wednesday at the residence of Robert Holman, near Alamo, Joel M. Denman and Mary Hastings were married. A reception was tendered them the following day at the residence of the groom’s mother, at which a bountiful repast was served to about seventylive guests. During the reception Truax’s orchestra rendered music of a nigh ciass. The groom is one of the most siibniantial young farm ers in Ripley township, while the bride is a popular young lady. The young couple have many friends who join in the congratula tions.

A Meritorious Appointment. The announcement is made that Dennis P. Downes is to be given the position of claim agent of the Vandalia lines made vacant by the resignation of Free Ellison, who has been appointed United States Consul at 15eli/,e, Honduras. Mr. Downes enters upon the new duties at once, also retaining his present position as stock agent. His head quarters will bo at Terre Haute. Perhaps no promotion lias ever been made in Vandalia circles that will cause such universal gratification among employes and ofli cials as that of Mr. Downes. He is an old Vandalia man, having been in the service of the company for about twelve years, four of which were spent in the roadmas ter’s office. He has been stock agent nearly ten years. Tile duties of both offices are such that Mr. Downes lias been allowed a clerk. Mr. Win. A. Crawford of the ticket auditing depart ment will be given the clerkship.— Terre Haute Express.
