audience most desired to hear, the talkers got in their work. There is no law to compel silence at a concert but there is a general law of decency and respect that should be observed in so highly a critical and cultured an audience as assembled last evening. The talk should he done between selections or when the forte passages are being played; not when people are listening to the soft and delicate portions of classical selections. If the fool killer ever gets his just share A scalps he will include in the outfit the indiscriminate conversationalist at a concert.
Fell on the Sidewalk. Brazil Democrat. G. (J. Moore, of Greencastle, met with a bad accident here this morning. As he was walking west on Main street he stepped on a banana I peeling in front of the Model trro- , eery, which threw him forcibly to the side walk. In falling his head struck a fish stand, making an ugly

As it was, Lee's face was slightly bruised, he has a big blue spot on his shin and is minus an |8 pair of glasses. When Lee’s train left Greencastle Junction three burly looking fellows, heiieved to be stone cutters, boarded the rear car and sat down on the back platform. The brakeman went back and,
A HucccMful Concert. Conterno’s celebrated band from New York won a warm place in the hearts of Greencastle music lovers yesterday, that is such of them who were fortunate enough to attend the concerts. With but two days' time in which to advertise the great attraction there were many people who did not know that the band was to be here and still others did not know its high standing The matinee program was played to a tew people who were impressed with it and each made a good walk ing advertisement for the evening. At eight o’clock the lower floor of the opera house was well filled.

The democratie editorial combination of Putnam county is slill silent in poor farm matters. We knew if they were given enough rope on that matter they wou d •eventually hung themselves. St erns its if thev have hung the matter up Judge Wiley, of Rensselaer, has decided that remonstrants had a right to withdraw their names un der the Nicholson temperance law at any time before the board of commissioners announced their finding. The decision, which i« of general interest throughout the state, involves dozens of ctses and is a vie tory for the saloon keepers. The decision like ihe others made, will go to the supreme court. Tiikue is a second edition to that horse story where a horse was sold on our streets last Saturday for $1.50 and of which occurrence the combined democratic editorial tal entot Putnam county failed tosaya word. The owner of the horse had just had him shod all around which cost $1.20. The horse really brought but twenty five cents. And still the democratic papers persist in telling the farmers that prices are as good as under repub Mean rule.
wound just above the left eje. Fetter from rrof. Underwood. From a personal letter to a friend here we print the following that will be of interest to the Gieencastle friends of Prof. Underwood, who is now at the head of the department of Biology in the State Agricultural college at Auburn, Alabama. A position that was awaiting him on his return from
Europe.
I suppose you want to know something of the place I am in and theenaraeter of my work. The college is thv Agricultural college of the state of Alabama and ranks rirst among the state colleges both in number of students ami the character of the work accomplished. The bmhlir <- here are mostly new and are well titled for their purpose. My rooms are on the third floor and are three in number large and well supplied with cases, books and an abundance of apparatus. Prof. Atkinson who left here three years ago to accept a position in Oronell University is largely responsible for the elaborate outfit. He always procured tilings in quantity so that the laboratory is ahudantly supplied with glassware, microscopes, microtomes and the finest ou.flt for hacteriolngicftl work that could obtained at the time, including sterilizeis, incubators, drying ovens, etc., all of the most approved patterns. The library already contains double the number of works that 1 Was able to add to the department at Greencastle in the four years I was there and there is a good annual appropriation for this purpose which insures getting what 1 want. The library further lias no restrictions as to bringing hooks to the department direct and in fact encourages this practice in order to make them the most useful. Besides the three well fitted rooms there is a plant house for the study of the diseases of plants that is an e'ahorate structure of its kind. Besides an ordinary green hodse of good dimensions there are separate wards like those of a hospital where specific diseases can he insolated and treated without the ^ chance of infection from without or conveying ihe infection toother plants understudy. Connected with this is an office for work and a dark room with a full equipment of photographic apparatus including three cameras com-
plete.
While my position is nominally “professor of biology” 1'really have the department of uryptogainic botany. My work consists of one lecture a week to a section of the senior class and four Itoiiisof laboratory supervision. So with the exerption of Mondays from 8 to 11 and on Fridays from 8 to 10 I nave all my time for investigation, in connection with the experiment station, or field work in the study of the rich cryptogamic flora of the region which except for the work done by Prof. Atkinson during his two years here lias been almost wholly untouched I find the faculty here very pleasant, mostly young and progressive men from nearly every section of the country. The town is not large ut there is a pleasant society here and everything p omises to he very pleasant. You will easily see that with a salary .. rger than 1 had last year, my lessened class room and laboratory work, and the consequent time tor investigation offered, I am very much better off than I have ever been before. I shall hope to accomplish some work this year with the facilities offered. Yours sincerely, L. M. Um>kkwood. I loon's 1. Wonderful. No less than wonderful are the cures accomplished by Hood's Sarsaparilla, even after other prepaiations and physician ’ prescriptions have failed The reason, however, is simple. When
Conductor Lee. When Lee saw them he asked them for their fare, but they refused to pay. He then ordered them off. By this time Greencastle Junction was reached, and as the train slowed up, the men got off. They walked up to the depot and when Conductor Lee got off they began to abuse and curse him. As Lee gave the signal to the engineer to pull out one of the nitliuns kicked him and he fell. The brakeman seeing the train starting sprang aboard, nulled the bell rope and jumped off again. Lantern in hand he made for the man who had just kicked Lee in
the face.
The heavy lamp was brought down on the man’s head, felling him to the platform. The brake man then turned his attentinn to the man who had at first kicked Conductor Lee. He brought the lantern down on his head with a loud whack, the glass flew and so did the man. In fact, when the brakeman had finished his perform ance in the little matinee but one of the three toughs was to be seen, and he was tearing down the road as fast as his legs could carry him. The brakeman's coolness in stop ping the train before he engaged in the light, thus putting the passen gersat ease, was a good act, us had lie not done so the train would have proceeded on toward Terre Haute without a conductor or brakeman Conductor Lee was momentarily stunne I by the cowardly kick he received in the face after he had lallen to the platform, but, regain ing bis feet, was prepared to light had not the brakeman already waded in with his lantern. Lee’s faee bore the mark of the Junction thug’s boot when he took his train into Terre Haute yesterday evening. He lost a pair of line gold glasses
during the melee.

here several years ago. The heavy oven tires were all encored and the quick marches, and selections given I made a variety to please everybody. 1 Miss Humphreys and Mr. Clodio the evening soloists, won great applause, and were recalled, the former for two selections. Mr. John Hazel the cornet soloist waa the favorite of the evening. His principal solo with variations was a revelation in cornet work and he j was given an enthusiastic welcome, j He responded and was again re [ called playing three times. He is ! the best cornetist heard here in years. The high grade of the band music and the thorough appreciation of it by the audience shows that Greencastle is appreciative. Mr. Conterno is a splendid director and a thorough gentlemen and if he ever comes this way again and j gives the city due notice he will be | greeted by a large audience. His band is playing return engagements ; everywhere local managers can sc | cure them. Those not attending last night missed the best enter taiument given here in many yea's. \
