Tuesday afternoon the infant i child of Mr. and Mrs. John Conkrite was brought to this city from J Greencastle for interment; Mr. '(Jonkrite and wife having formerly heen residents of this city. Ar-

| rangemetits had b(*en made for the | experienced

j huriul at Masonic cemetery yester J day, but the arrangements were in

inion of an epicure. While it is the belief of many that the fruit crop is general, there are several points in Indiana where there arc failures in the crop. A traveling gentleman here from Delaware county says that there is more fruit in one orchard east of this city than there is in his entire county. Taking this as a cue, our local fruit growers should hustle around a little and secure some contracts for future delivery. Taking the present exhibit as samples it should be kept intact and il possible it should lie brought to the observation of buyers. We believe it would thus bring many dol-

lars to the county.

Some little difficulty has been

in getting judges to

act, as most of those familiar with I the good points in fruit and versed

George Conkrite, a brother of John’s who also lives in Greencastle had accompanied the remains to this city, but had spent all his available cash in bringing the body to this place. Thus the matter stood until Charley McCoy offered bis assistance in their behalf and proceeded to raise the amount necessary to proceed with the interment. A collection was taken up and Mrs. J. P.

A Koninnee of Six Months Hence. The dark, dreamy tones of the Silver Leaf were heard in the distance. A dusky maiden of color was sighing for her Apollo, hut he came not. As her curly head lay on the window sill and her tensioned ears drank in the rippling thirds, animated quavers, consecutive fifths, fractured sixths, dominant sevenths and ruptured eighths as they belched from the throats of the animated horns, her heart was sad and briny tears trickled from her eye lids to the ground. She was inconsollable all because her fond paper had denied her lover admis sion to his house and the subsequent gift of his daughter’s hand. The stern decision was forthcoming all because of the non-progressive attitude of the Apollo in worldly affairs. He wasn't, standing at the top of colored society circles, was in a sort of soporific trance, and therefore wasn’t in it. The relentless old man knew this and so did the maiden. The youth didn’t despair, however. He pondered and studied, and finally struck a plan. He had seen so many'of his colored brethren rise to attluenee, power and position through their ability in glueing their lips to a bright shining horn, that he resolved to do likewise. He bought a seven dollar trombone (on credit) and went to work. What did it matter to him whether he ruined tympanums, repose or shade trees in his neighborhood? He was working for fame, glory and his dusky treasure. He toiled, sweat, lost heart and flesh, recovered and at last was ready to go on dress parade. He was in the front rank up on the occasion of the appearance of the Silver Leaf mentioned in the opening lines of this story. As the aggregation of gaily bedecked mu sicians swept down the street and past her father’s mansion the maid en raised her head and gazed from a dark bay window upon the grand spectacle. She saw her loved one and was transported to a heaven of bliss. No longer was he the despised one. He had reached the topmost round of fame! He gazed down with contempt upon the common trash for he had got there. The old man bowed to him and took him to his bosom. He married the girl and there is no “con tinued in our next” about this

story.

like as not, but he finds it his mission to enlarge upon the thought. And be tells his neighbor the conclusion he has drawn, and it doesn't take much labor to prepe! tha slander on. And the farther on it travels the more spirited its force; not one skein unravels—no one thinks about the source. But the scandal-mongers gabble ot the sin tier and his sin, and they tell it to the rabble and the rabble takes it in. And they keep the scandal going— age, middle age and youth—and they feed the flame by blowing till a lie becomes the truth. O, the slimy tongue of slander, how it runs the world along—and delights alone to pander to the ones whose hearts ar ewrong; to the wolf in “southdown” clothing who would scarcely take your purse, but I want to say with loathing, that it’s deeds are ten times worse. Were I but a few years younger with an athletic mould, I would catch the scandal-monger and secure an un der hold; and with strength I would impel him no more characters to wreck, and I’d struggle, should I tell him, not to tail to break bis
