FOR SOLDIERS’ COTTAGES-

Peti^loBS to be €ircnlate«l for Soltliem* Cottages at New Lafayette Home. At the last session of the legislature the state provided $75,000 for the new Soldiers’ home at Lafayette; the general government pays $100 annually for the maintenance of each inmate and the state pays $10.50 per month for the support of each inmate. The county com missioners of each county are given authority by the same act to build a cottage on the grounds thereof, by an appropriation cf any sum

they leel disposed.

On Saturday last a committee of citizens met at the oliice of T. C. Grooms to take steps to tile a petition asking that an appropriation of not less than $()00 be made by the commissioners of Putnam county for t he purpose of construct iugacottage for the benefit of Putnam county soldiers. That com mittee has selected men from over the county to meet in this city at the G. A. 11. hull on Suturdaj’, No vember 1*1, at one o’clock p. m. These men will circulate petitions, or committees will then be ap-

Washington, Nov. 4, 181)5. Mr. Cleveland is worried about how to approach the subject of increasing the revenues of the government, in his aiiiuntl message to emigre**, and no member of hi* cabinet has *o fur been able to suggest any satisfactory solution of the trouble. If he ever thought the present tar'll' would produce enough money, which is very doubtful, be knows now bey.nd a shadow of a doubt that it will not. Of course lie kn< tvs. as everybody else does, that eongiess will legislate on this subject regardless of bis recommendation, but tlinl knowledge does not help him any. Fie knows also that unless the democrats propose allowing the presidential election to go by default it is absolutely necessary for that party to make some definite declaration on the subject, and that as the official bead of the party he ought, to make it in his message i<> congress. Por him to recommend raising the needed reveille by amendment of the tariff law

would be to acknowledge the error of

When you look around and see all these fine houtes, farms anu cattle, do yon ever think who owns them all

lo, whatever be may think. Nothing is left then but to recommend an increase in internal revenue taxes and in the number of articles subject to such taxation, or both, lie knows that no recommendation in that line will be popular, and it is not strange that he

should be worried.

There is but one opinion among re

“Where will your fathers be in twenty* years?” “Dead!” shouted the boys. “That’s riglit. And who will own this property then?” “Us boys!” shouted the urchins. “Right. Now tell me, did you ever, in going along the street, notice the drunkards lounging around the public house door, wait ing for some one to treat them?” “Yes, sir; lots of them.” “Well, where will they be twenty years from now?” “Dead!” exclaimed the boys. “And who will be drunkards

then?”

“Us boys,” Everybody was thunderstruck. It sounded awful! It was awful; but it was true.

tion of a state ticket. Right now there is talk of such a combination, and, in fact they profess to dislike each other intensely. Whether they fuse or not will lie of no consequence to the republicans, because no opposition ticket will have the slightest chance for suc-

cess.’"

How earnest Pittsburg is about securing the republican national convention may be judged by the talk of Mr. C. T. Rawls, of that city, who is now in Washington helping the project along. He said : “Our citizens have already" pledged themselves to contribute $*>5,OX), and before the National committee meets to decide on the matter they will have increased it to $KK).(KK). About the only charge that is brought against us is lack of adequate hotel facilities, atid yet we took care of the Grand Army meeting a little while ago in splendid style. 1 don’t think that there is any reason to fear that the delegates and visitors would suffer from poor accommodations. We have one of the greatest auditoriums in the country in our exposition building, which can by little alteration, be turned into aeon vention hall cttpaole of seating 16,0 0

The $25,000 a year which Don M. Dickinson, of Michigan, is said to receive from the brewers because of his supposed infiuence with Mr. Cleveland and Ids consequent ability to look out for tb" brewing interest is in danger of being cut otf. Mr. Dickinson lias been sat upon by Mr. Cleveland in a manner that indicates the loss of whatever influence he may have had with the administration. Mr. Dickinson undertook to have two of the new gun boats authorized by congress built by a Detroit firm, notwithstanding the treaty of 1815 with Great Britain, which prohibits either government building war ships on the great lakes. Secretary Herbert turned Mr. Dickinson down;

Profrunr I.mithroao Ha. High Praia, fur the Author of "Deffrnrratloti.” In "Degeneration” he has the great merit of combating certain dominant influence*, particularly that of mysticism, which, recrndescent in these latter days, thanks to ceitnin errant geniuses, has led astray a vast throng of talents. In this book, too, he is ever the man of onr century who lias most felt the pulse of his times, and he has not only put his finger on our most open wound—on that egotism which is sterilizing our moral sense and rendering us cruel to one another —but he also has succeeded in finning its explanation in the special tendencies of the degenerate; whether it be the higher class degenerates who invents the strangest freaks to catch the pnblio eye—as weddings in a balloon or Cardinal Lavigerie’s crusades—or the imitative degenerates who deem themselves original in simply

copying.

Finally he has had the supreme merit of applying psychiatric research to literary criticism. He has carried this reform to its utmost applicability, seeking, with that audacity, intrepid even to insolence, which lie exhibited in his "Conventional Lies, ” to demolish the reputations most firmly established. And thus he has been able to overthrow the work of the French and German Symbolists and Decadents, who proclaim science untrue because in 100 years of toil she has not given them the key to all the mysteries. These pages of his are among the most splendid written in this century, such as could be wrested from an artist thinker by the sight of four idlers, who insult the legion of tireless workers busy .n searching and researching nature, even into her inmost recesses. And very just is his diagnosis of them—that they have for their charocteristjcs a nebulosity of mental representation, a confused and motley ideation, too much eroticism, an abnormal

demotional fabric and egotism which causes them

things only in relation to their own selves.—“Nordau’s ‘Degeneration ,’ Its | Value and Its Errors,” by (Insure Lorn

broso, in Century.

is, that if the administration get* the mo iey it needs it will be through amemlements to the tarifi' law, placing certain articles now free of duty, which enter into active competition with similar articles produced in the Fnited States, upon the dutiable list, and increasing the duties upon other articles of foreign production, the low duties upon which now cripple a number of American industries by reducing the output of our mills and factories. It, has been said that the Senate will not pass such amendments if adopted by the House, and that if it did Mr. Cleveland would veto them. Well, that is for the Senate and Mr. Cleveland to decide. The House is republican, as is the country, and it is going to legislate on republican litns, and if its legislation fails to become laws the people will be appealed to, and they will see to it that after March 4. 181)7 there will he a republican Senate and President as well

Representative Kirkpatrick, a good republican who succeeds Hudson, pnp-uli-t, as congressman from the third Kansas district, is in Washington. When asked who was the favorite presidential candidate of Kansas’ republicans, he said: "I think McKinley has a little advantage in our state; he has visited us several times and made trauv admirers. But Mr. Reed also has many followers. The Kansans, like a a sturdy tighter such as the Maine man has proved himself. We would be well | p.eased with either of these two. Either 'can carry the state.

The interference of the DePauw team was fine and they bucked the line hard. We had the ball on their ten yard line once* but were unable to get it nearer. No one was injured in the game. The Indiana University team played splendid ball, but luck was against tbem. They feel confident that they will win next Monday, when the DePauw team will play here.

The holiday season, when the purse of the people is freely opened, and everyone feels the general goodwill so universal at that time, is close at hand. The shrewd merchant avails himself of the opportunity to present his patrons with a holiday souvenir, prized for its beauty and elegance, and which will, if in the shape of a I Calendar, prove an advertisement of liis business throughout the entire succeeeding year, and therefore a money maker.

I think it necessary to make an explanation (for the benefit of a lew who do not understand) in regard to where I got my authority to make an examination of the eyes of all school children in town and county. First, after talking with ^ (he county superintendent aboil,ig the matter he said that he had no objections to having the examinations made if the children desired it. He also said that he had no objection to the schools dismissing and coming in a body if they wished to do so. Second, the arrangement made with the city school board was this: That I was granted the privilege to make the examinations if the parents wished it, and further teachers were instructed to dismiss any pupil to have the examination made provided the parent would send a note to the teacher requesting the same. Parents are not compelled to have their children’s eyes examined, they can do as they please about it. There is no expense whatever con- m nected with it and parents are not required to get glasses for their children. I think that the above explanation will put any one right who has failed to understand the matter. E. Shipley, (Doctor of Refraction.)
