Chicago is a republican city by ■i pluraliiy of over 40,000. That is the telegraphic news, and it carries glad tidings to the republicans all over the country. With Chicago sntely out of the clutches of the gang that has for so long controlled it, there is no danger of Illinois ever again Hopping over to the democratic column. The republi cans elected their mayor, assessois, collector and clerks. George Trude, democrat, ran far ahead of his ticket for city attorney, and there is a possibility that he defeated Roy (J West, republican. Mr. West is quite young, and is well known here, where he attended UePuuw university. The telegraph reports that he was scratched un mercifully. The election carries with it a civil service proposition which places the police and other city officials under the civil service rules and extends the mayorahty : term to four years.

It was moved that the paper of J. T. Denny, of the previous meeting, and tiiose of Mr. O’Hair and Mrs. Williamson be placed in the archives ol the society. Under the head of general business Mayor Birch told of some of his early struggles and those of his ancestors. Granville C. Moore was called upon, and lie told of some of his early remembrances of Greencastle. Mr. Moore had the misfortune, lie Slid, of having been born in Tennessee, moving to this county in 1843, when Greencastle wasn’t much of a town. Mr. Moore’s talk was interesting and full of wit. The speaker said there were no sa loons in town then. Dr. L. M. Hanna made one of his characteristic witty talks, in which he regretted he had not reached the full scope of his ambition in life, and then naively remarked that since attending the last meeting and hearing Mr. Denny’s paper that he had found the reason—that he had been born out-

That Tired Feeling
Is a certain indication of impure and itn
poverLhed blood. If your blood could always be rich and pure, full of the red corpuscles upon which*its vitality depends, you would never be weak, or
Ifervous! Bolls, pimples, scrofula, salt
rheum, would never trouble you. But our mode of living, shut in all winter in poorly ventilated homes and shops, depletes the blood and there is loss of appetite, and weakness. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the standard remedy for this condition. It purifies, vitalizes and enriches the blood, overcomes that tired feeling, builds up the nerves and gives perfect health. Read this:
“Our daughter, Blanche, when four years
of age had a humor break out on her hands and face, which our physician pronounced eczema. If the cold air reached her face or hands they would swell up, look almost purple, and headed blisters would form and break,
Discharging a watery lluid, and the burning and itching would drive her nearly wild. Unless we incased her little hands she would tear patches of skin from her face and hands. YVe tried many doctors and many remedies and at last gave the case up as hopeless. But our daughter Cora tried Hood’s Sarsaparilla, to cure a scrofulous lump near the lett breast which caused her much pain and after taking 4 bottles It disappeared. Blanche, who is now eleven, had spent seven years of suffering, so I concluded to give her Hood’s Sarsaparilla. She took 5 bottles and her face is smooth and soft as a baby’s, the color of a rose petal. Her hands are soft and white, where four months ago they were blue and red and calloused nearly like leather. I cannot express my gratitude by pen or mouth. It seems a miracle and our friends are surprised.” Mrs. Anna L. Clark, 401 E. 4th St.. Duluth, Minn.

If the “mistake” in the fee and salary law of Mr. Van Arsdel’s, which is causing some talk, the constitutionality of which it is proposed to test in the courts, holds good, the auditor’s office of Putnam county would pay about $450, as estimated by Auditor-elect Denman. The mistake was in copying the hill and included auditors and treasurers along with the other fee officers, while the fees provided for the auditors aud treasurers are decidedly slim. Mr. Denman says | he will not follow the proposition of Auditor elect Schmidt, of Indianapolis, to throw the office over his ! shoulder, but will tackle it whether I
