In looking up a Christmas pres ent consult the advertisements in the Banner Times. A merchant who asks you in a well worded ad., six days in a week, to purchase his goods always wants your trade. If a man doesn’t nsk you to buy are you aure he wants your patronage?

Friday. Mr. Dodd and his wife were residing near Mooresvilie, Morgan county, Indiana, and last May Mr. Dodd abandoned his wife. She brought suit for divorce and alimony alleging cruel treat raent, and on default procured a judgment for divorce and $2500 alimony, in a few days after that Mr. Dodd filed a motion to have the default and judgment set aside, alleging that he was a non resident of the state at the time the suit was brought and the judgment taken, he alleging that he had gone to the state of Missouri for perma nent residence He then tiled a motion for change of venue from Morgan county and the case was sent to Hendricks county for trial. Last Frida}' the parties were all in court apparently ready for trial hut on account of another trial the case was not called until Friday afternoon. The defendant requested that the case go over until Saturday morning, and the case was continued until then. That evening the defendant and his relatives all left Danville and on the next morn ing his attorney announced that he was without a client; that his client had gone to parts unknown, and his attorneys then withdrew theii appearance; thereupon the defendant was defaulted and the judgment of the Morgan circuit court confirmed. Col. W. R. Harrison, of Martinsville, and Newton M. Taylor, of Indianapolis, were attorneys for plaintiff, and P. O Colliver, of Greencastle, and Brill A Harvey, ol Danville, wete attorneys for defend ant.

Stanton l>ivorc* .Suit.

The Stanton divorce case was called this morning in the circuit court. The case attracted more than ordinary interest from the fact that the defendant is fighting the pica for divorce. Wm. btanton of Anderson, is the defendant and Mrs. Bertha Stanton, of this city, plaintiff. The plaintiff is a daughter ot L. M. Darnall of thio city, and her petition for divorce was published in the c'ty papers at the time filed. Mr. Stanton filed a cross bill in which he set out his side of the case. Mr. Stanton formerly lived here where he was an assistant for Prof. J. B. DeMotte. He now manages the Philadelphia quartz works at Anderson, a manufacturing concern and gels a salary

Washington, Dec. 10, 1895. The meeting of trie Republican Na tional committee tomorrow is attracting more attention in Washington ihiweek than Congress. The reason is oh vious. The Senate can transact lit! e, if any, important business until the question of reorganization ha* been seitleil. and the House can do little until Speaker Reed announces the coinmiitecs. while the National committee will decide when and where the convention that will nominate the next i re-iden* will he held. Delegations are hen actively working for the r-ix ci ei which are competing for the honor ol entertaining the convention. While the members of the comuiiitee wei reticent on the stihjcT. th-* confident o f the Chicago contingent s such ft.a nearly cveryh sly who i» is not a ind championing some oiIi t city seem- o he of the opinion thai ihe cmiveuti'm will'he held in that city. *nd the heliet is general that June will he the nioutii Incidentally with the meetj g of the National coiinuittee a crowd of enthn-i - astlc MeKinleyilcs have descended upon Washington and Opened licadi]UH< terfor the purpose of pushing along the boom of Ohio’s favorite son, which they consider not only a good thing, but the liest thing of its kind now on the road. They found plenty of sympathizers in Washington, as few men have more personal friends in Congresthan Ooy. McKinley, and few of those friends have warmer feelings for him th in the hig man, in every sense of the word, who presides over t ie Mouse and who is one of his rivals for the presidential nomination. The two men worked side by side in the House for a I mg period and fully understand each other’s worth, and, w hile neither would probably say as much for public ition, it would be a good guess to say that each o. them is the other’s second choice for president; hut it iuu«t nor be inferred from such a guess that either would sulk should the National convention in its assembled wisdom decide to nominate one of the other capable and popular gentlemen who have been mentioned. They are both republicans of the tried and true kind, who always work their hardest for party success regardless of who may head the ticket. For a man who lays claim to more than an average share of courage, Mr. Cleveland has a queer—not to put worse construction upon it—way of acting. Although he knew that congress and the country were deeply interested in the answer to the administration’s request to know whether Great Britain intended to submit the Venezuelan boundary dispute to arbitration, anil that the answer would be in Secretary Olney’s hands Saturday, be slunk oft’ on a duck hunting trip, aboard id a Government I.igjt-house tender, without eyen setting a time for his return, leaving congress and the country to await his august pleasure before being permitted to see that answer, which is known to be unsatisfactory. He may not have been afraid to face the music raised by his unexpected stand in fayor of the Monroe doctrine, but there are people who believe he is, and that he went away hoping that congress would take the bit in its teeth, demand the correspondence of Secretary Gluey, and dictate a reply to Lord Salisbury before he returned to Washington. That may be putting the case a little too strong, but there can he no doubt that Mr. Cleveland’s absence at thL time is disrespectful to congress and to the American people anil unjustifiable from any point of. view. While it is probable thal the republicans of the House will bold a caucus after the committees are announced before definitely deciding what shall he done to furnish the treasury with the money which Mr. Cleveland would not »sk for, although he and everybody else knows how badly it is needed, the expression of members make it piaetieally certain that the money will he raised by increasing Hie tarifl'on a number of articles It is regarded as probable that the claims of the western senators for the chairmanships of the. Senate committees which have to do exclusively with wester affairs will be almost if not entirely granted by the caucus committee •f republican senators now engaged in selecting republicans for the vacant committee places; lienee there are no believers of the silly story of an intended revolt on the part of western republicans. In oficring the resolution asking for •II the correspondence in the Waller ease. Representative Miller, of Kansas, was Hcting for the entire congressional delegation of his state. This is the first step in the light that is to he made in congress to secure for Waller what the aduiiniAratioil hit' failed to get for him—justice.

Hold Your Corn. The funner in the Mississippi ( and Missouri valley who looks today upon his large yield of corn for which he is offered only fifteen to twenty cents a bushel may be pardoned for feeling that his ap parent good luck is a snare and a delusion, says the St. Louts OlobeDewocrat, but there is a way for him to make it properly advantageous. He can defeat the fate that seems to have emptied the horn of plenty on him only to poke grim and bitter fun at him. It is simply a question of putting the corn into crib and waiting for it to acquire a higher value. A result of the sort is sure to ensue before many months and he is foolish if ke sells any sooner. ('an ('h*iHliitn* Dance? Bob Burdette answers this question in his usual unique fashion: “May a Christian dance? Of course he may. He might swear and lie, too, hut it would not make him a better Christian. Surely, Christian, you may dance, but dancing will never identify you as a Christian. What puzzles us is that you ask the question so often. Christians who don’t dance never ask it. Yes, Christians, dance if you can't live without it.

‘•I'll* !><»or and th* I>mvi1.” Pews, chairs and aisles were all filled at the Christian church last night. Mr. Boyer received the closest attention as he discoursed elovuently on “Standing in the Doorway,” from the texts: 1 Cor. xvi: 9, “For a great and effectual door is opened unto me but there are many adversaries;” and Rev. lit 8, “I have set before thee an open door.” Many scriptures were quoted to prove that I. Christ is a great door; (a) Into the remission of sins; (b) Into peace with God; (c) Into fellowship with the church; (d) Into life

everlasting.

II. The adversaries are the world, flesh and the devil; (a) World ot commerce or business; (it) World of politics; (c) World of society ; (d) worldly minded church. III. Wars against the spirit. This was strikingly illustrated in i various ways hut especially by the case of a poor drunkard win, to keep his promise that he would not drink any more unless the hand of his own lit.le girl should hold the glass to his lips, entwined her lingers, stiff in death about the bottle ami kneeling at the side of her dead body drunk until he fell senseless to the floor.
