DAILY BANNER TIMES
A Monou Report Revived. The report is revived that the Louisville, New Albany <fe Chicago is in a fair wav to secure control of the Indiana & Illinois Southern. In the annual report of Samuel Thomas, president of the L., N. A. <fc C., he alludes to the Indiana & Illinois Southern as follows: “The conversion of the Switz City branch to standard guage has brought the company’s line within a few miles ot the Illinois coal field, through which extends an existing line known as the Indiana A Illinois Southern, from Switz City, on the company’s line, to Effingham, on the Vandalia route. This line is unfortunately at present in such dilapidated condition that an interchange of cars is not practicable, but it is hoped that its owners will be able to improve its condition so as to enable its safe operation, in which case the Monon will be able to inaugurate a large coal business with the mines only six miles from Switz City, and with St. Louis, with which the Monon company already has a very considerable traffic.

Advertisement** a* Newt.
The New York World was issued the other da}* (from necessity, be it understood) without “ads.” The press-room of the W<vrld was flooded and eight pagss of advertisements were temporarily crowed out. So the World appeared, the first newspaper that ever saw the light of day withofit a line of advertising. That issue of the World may be preserved as a curiosity, but it is safe to say that the subscribers and readers and patrons of the World did not like the paper. The increased reading matter did not compensate them for the absence of the advertisements. They sought something, and found out that what they missed was a most interesting and valuable department of the paper. They discovered that what was gone was a map of busy life, its fluctuations and its vast concerns. It was as if all the business of New York had been left out of the paper. It is hoped that the World'* mishap wasintrument al in convincing all its r°Hilcre of the interesting nature of "ertisemen ts and their attractiveness as reading matter, and what a differ ence their absence makes in the literary as well as the business circles of the newspaper. Blessings brighten as they take flight, though it be for but one day.
Stay at Uninv, Girl*.
“I’m glad I live in America.’’ said a pretty young woman, talking to a Philadelphia fnijuirer re porter, “because I am never afraid to travel by myself. Last year I was in London and went around with a friend who is married, and we were spoken to in an insulting manner every time we went ont. Parts was still worse. People speak of the French politeness* but it is only a veneer. The men would get in front of us on every street corner and smirk and ogle and chatter like monkeys. I am glad I didn’t understand anything they said. There are no men like the American men, and I never was so fully able to appreciate it as I am now that I have seen those of

That Ilody Adjourn After Three Weeks ot Important Husiness. The grand jury of the present term of court has filed its report with Judge McGregor and also a duplicate with the county auditor. Upon poor farm matters their report says: We find the inventory of personal propery, goods and chattels to be somewhat enlarged since our last report, and that said inventory contains a sufficient supply of articles for the proper management of the farm, and an ample supply’ of food and provision for the inmates; we find the live stock iu good condition and crops well tended, fencing in good repair. As to the management we find some evidence tending to show that the present superintendent has in the past unnecessarily used more or less profane language in the presence of the inmates of the institution and has in some instanced according to our information resorted to harsh means in the enforcement of certain rules adopted by him for the management of the inmates. We further have information that the manager has in the past upon certain occasions shown evidence of the use to excess of alcohlic stimulants; if the above referred to are true we suggest that the commissioners see to it that these objectionable features be controlled in tiie future. The drainage and sewers of the building have never been properly cleaned on account of an absence of proper vater supply, the matter discharged running into a ravine 100 feet from the main building near a spring; we recommend a wind mill with proper tanks so that the water from the spring may he forced to a sufficient elevation to flood said drains and pipes and that the sewer be ex tended down the ravine 100 feet. The stock pond should be removed 100 feet from where it is now situated. A heating apparatus for the entire building is needed and the jury recommends that the commissioners purchase a furnace, as the heating in the past has been inadequate. A storage building for oil is recommended as the present location of oil in the basement is dangerous. There are* thirty-six inmates, seventeen females, nine teen males; five of tfcem are crippled and three sick in bed. The county jail was visited and the report says: The care and management is satisfactory and efficient, prisoners are well fed and have proper bedding. The main si wer leading from the upper story’ of the building is too small and becomes frequently clogged and cannot be properly cleaned. We recommend that the pipe be enlarged. The apartments are clean and well kept. The grand jury returned tliirtyseven indictments for the following crimes and misdemeanours: Embezzlement 3, perjury 1, affray 2, rape I, intoxication 3, using seine 2. assault with intent 3, carrying concealed weapons 10, assault and battery 3, disturbing meeting 3, petit larceny 1, pointing weapon 3, assault 2.

Cloverdale, Ind., Sept. 20.—The Cloverdale Lumber Co’s large saw mill and planing mill was struck by lightning and burned this morning between 3 ami 4 o'clock. Loss about *4,000, insured for *1.200 in the Phenix of New York. This was one of the best equipped factories of this kind in the county and turned out lots of work. They were behind with their orders, in fact the last few weeks they had received more orders than they could fill. This is a great temporary loss to the town as quite a number of men are thrown oiit of employment. The mill was owned and operated by, T. M. Layne and Howard Hart. These men stated this morning they will rebuild their mill just as soon as possible.
WHY Go Away?
Why go to Martinsville, French Lick, or any other watering place when Greeneastle has at her doors some of | the best mineral water to be found in the state.
