Washington, May 25,1896. Mr. Cleveland’s eurt refusal to fur-

World'H Fair IHploma. Cole Bros, have received a dipl >ma and a medal from the World’s Columbian Exposition of which they are justly proud. This was won in competition with the world on a general purpose walking plow, the Mitchell prong plow being used. There were thousands of general purpose plows in the contest but it remained for Greencastle to carry off the first honors. The medal is a handsome piece of bronze put up in a beautiful aluminum case. The engraved diploma contains the following eulogy of the plow: “For a general purpose walking plow, having rod mold board with removable and interchangeable points fastened by means of a shoe bolted to prongs iti independent sections from each point similar to a spading fork. The design shows marked advancement indicating lightness of draft, with great elliciency in wet or sticky soils, great range of use due to convenient interchangeability of its parts, which are of simple and practical design.” This is signed by the general officers of the lair together with R. H. Thurston, president of the department committee, and by A. S. Prather, special judge. Cole Bros, are proud of their prize.

Miss Myrtle Grubb returned today from Germany. She was met at New York by Miss Estella Grubb. Miss Grubb arrived at 12 :42 on the Bin Four and has been abroad three years.

W. H. H. Cullen is now a full fledged member of the Putnam county bar, having been admitted today. The Major has absorbed enough law in his long tei m as deputy clerk to entittle him to membership and this morning he was sworn in.

The old trouble between bicyclers ond teamsters, relative to the richts on the highway, has begun to rise again. Each party will do well to remember that the other is entitled to half the road. This matter has been tested several times in the courts and always with the same result. The teamster is obliged to give half the road to the bicycle, and on the other hand a drove of sweating “scorchers” have no right to expect a teamster to turn out in the ditch to make way for a wild road race. The law says to divide the road and turn to ttie right. Cyclers should remember also since the wheel is recognized by law as a vehicle they have no more right on the side walk than lias a man on horseback or iu a carriage.

Former Del'anw Girl to Marry. Terre Haute Tribune. According to advices received from Paris, Miss Bertha Maude Eppinghousen, formerly of Terre Haute, is to marry Senor Enrique Pirez, the son of Senor Filipe Pirez, ex president of Colombia, South

America.

Miss Eppinghousen sailed for Europe April 1, in company with her father, Mr. Charles Eppinghousen, who was, up to 1889, an architect and stone contractor of this city, and is now in Paris. Miss Eppinghousen is the second of two daughters, the elder being Mrs. Cecelia Eppinghousen Bailey, of Louisville, Ky. She is an exceptionally beautiful girl, tall, dark, and stately, with superb eyes that suggest the Italian blood that flows

in her veins.

The wedding will take place on j Thursday, July 2, in London, Eng- ; land, and the bride’s father will be | the only member of the family in 1 attendance. Senor Pirez, the groom’s father, as well ns the brother, cousins, and uncle of the

groom, will also attend.

The honeymoon will be spent in Epping Forest, where the young couple will remain for five months. After that they will go to Bogota,

Colombia, South America.

Circuit Court. The case of the Greencastle Man ufacturing company vs. James L Randel, complaint, which had bein argued pro and con for two days before Judge McGregor, was decided this morning in favor of the plaintiff who alleged non-payment of stock assessments by the defendant, The judgment in favor of the company was .$206.75. The several similar cases have been continued pending the test of the above mentioned cause.

nish the senate with copies of the correspondence with Spain concerning the American citizens captured on the rtllibuster competitor, asked for by the Morgan resolution, is net well received either in or out of the senate, and unless it is proven to senators, by allowing then, to see the correspondence, that some better reason than a whim of Mr. Cleveland’ exists for refusing this information, the senate is likely to take some additional action. A report which j cannot be verified says that Secretary j Gluey refused to allow a member of the Senate committee on Foreign Relations to see this correspondence. Senator Quay’s visit to Gov. McKinley is the subject most talked about just now by the republicans in congress, who have nearly all concluded that unless there is a radical change not now expected in the sentiments of the delegates to the St. Louis convention. Gov. McKinley will be the republican nominee and the next president. While nobody knows exactly why that visit was made, nor what was its result, it has certainly pleased the republicans, those who have from the suported Gov. McKinley as well as those who supported other candidates. It indicates for one tiling that the St. Louis convention is not to be followed by the sulking which had much to do with republican defeat in ’84 and in '92. The House cannot be accused of having any surplus love for Mr. Cleveland, but it very promptly sat upon'the notoriety seeking resolution of Representative Howard, the Alabama populist, impreaebing the president. Before Howard could make the sensational speech he started. Representative Dingley raised the question of consideration against the resolution; Speaker Reed at once put the question, and by a pratically unanimous vote the House refused to hear Howard. There is much doubt about that investigation of the bond issues by this administration which the senate directed to be made. According to Senator Harris, who is chairman of the sub-committee which will do the investigating, it may be finished in three days or it may take three months. It will not begin until Secretary Carlisle furnisbes the committee all the details of the several bond issues. While indicating his willingness to do this, Mr. Carlisle told the committee that it would take considerable time to prepare the statement. Some criticism lias been aroused by the report that the investigation would be secret. Senator Sherman had no difficulty in showing that those democratic senators who expressed their anxiety to join bands with the republicans and pass a non-partisan bill which would give the government the revenues which ail the democrats now admit that its needs were merely making a grand stand play for the purpose of trying to escape responsibility for being willing that congress should adjourn without providing for the ligitimate needs of the government. All that Mr. Sherman did was call their attention to the Dingley Emergency Revenue bill which was passed by the House eariy in the session, and which comes as near to buing an absolutely non-partisan tariff bill as any measure ever passed by either branch of congress. That brought out the cloven foot of the democratic senators and they at once declared that they would never support that bill. It is the country’s misfortune that the republicans cannot poll a majority of votes iu the senate, but it will be remedied iu the near future. The bill prohibiting further issue of bonds without specific authority of congress is being debated in the senate. It has been virtually settled by the several test votes which gave the bill the right of way that a majority of the senate favors the bill, but if there was any probability that the bill could pass the Hnuse it would not be allowed to come to a vote in the senate, and it is not cer-
