A new cereal Ktory iw going the rounds, the ahsorhing theme being the high price of wheat. The coal operators announce that they “feel that they have exhausted all honorable means of settlement.” They might try paying higher wages. Bishop John 1*. Newman stated in a recent speech that the annual liquor bill of this country amount ing to !)! 1,000,000,000. This, he claims, is equal to the cost of twenty leading necessaries of life. Perhaps Mr. Bryan is waiting for another drop in silver before he starts on his Mexican tour. I( lie will wait a little longer he may be able for ten or twelve gold dollars to buy enough Mexican dollars to coyer itis expenses for the entire trip. Greeneastle ought to have a Commercial club like the Lafayette Courier claims for that town: Lafayette has a Commercial club as is a commercial club and if there is anything good laying around loose or hunting a new home, the city proposes to have it.

A $1200 farm in Tennessee has neon paid for entirely in hen’s eggs. The hens of America produce a easli article, and they go right along through hard times witli u

song of triumph instead of a calamity wail. People in this section do not pay enough attention to the poultry business. It is undoubtedly great business in this country and is something that every family can engage in and secure some ready cash every week. Hogs, horses, cattle, sheep are not in it with chickens. The best pay ing variety is the fried chicken. The new law relating to the methods of raising funds to support the poor goes into effect September 1st. The county auditor is required to make a report to the commissioners in September of each year of the amount drawn out of the treasury, and the trustees make the levy which they base o.i this report. Should the trustee fail to tlo so, it becomes the duty of the commissioners to make the levy. This method covers for the county treasury the amount paid out. While the expenditure is the same in the end, it relieves the county commissioners of making the levy, as they formerly did, and places the duty upon the trustee. The object of the law is to have each township in a county pay for the care of its own poor. Wappenhans sends out the fol lowing crop bulletin lor the central section of Indiana: Good rains fell iu many localities at the beginning and end of the week, and corn was helped much, except in fields where only light showers occurred. Corn is advancing and maturing only slowly, except in Randolph, Frank lin, Rush and a few other counties, where good rains fell and wher» if is maturing rapidly. Potatoes ev erywhere are not promising well. Tomatoes are ripening rapidly for the markets and canning factories: in some localities the crop is short. Pasturage is getting drj - , and dairy men, in some localities, are feeding green corn. Buckwheat is filling fairly well. A large crop of millet has been secured. ( lover is being cut and hulled; it is well filled with good seed. Vegetables are in fair condition in most localities. Ap (ties are falling off much, hut in Marion county there arc still plenty of apples and plums. Grapes are ripening; in some vineyards many are rotting and dropping off Fall plowing progressed only slow ly, and seeding will he late. Grass hoppers are very numerous. The restoration of confidence in advertising would yield our mer chants large returns this fall. If every merchant could sniff the battle from afar and get out his gun and train it on prospective customers he might hag a lot of nice game the coming season. Col. Weaver Married. The following announcement was received in this city this morning Mr. and Mrs. Henry Matern an nounce the marriage of their daughter Kmmn, to Professor James Riley Weaver, Monday, August 30. 1897, Sandusky, Ohio.

The Sharkers of Mount Lebanon, a community of simple, honest. Godfearing men and women, have prepared the Shaker Digestive t 'ordiul for many years, and it is always the same, simple, honest, curative medicine that lias helped to make the Shakers the healthy, long-lived people that they are. The Shakers never have indigestion. This is partly owing to their simple mode of life, partly to the wonderful properties of Shaker Digestive Cordial. Indigestion is caused hy the stomach glands not supplying enough digestive juice. Shaker Digestive Cordial supplies what is wanting. Shaker Digestive Cordial invigorates the stomach and all its glands so that after a while they don’t need heln. As evidence of the honesty of Shaker Digestive < 'ordiul, the formula is printed on every bottle. Sold by druggists, price 10 cents to $1.00 per bottle.

The Public Schools. I’be date of opening of the schools was fixed by the board at Monday, Sept. 13. There will be no material change in the policy of the schools. The High school course will be I changed to four years as is already | the case in all the best high schools of tlie state. The work will lie extended in some lines and broadened in others. Throughout the greater part of the course a pupil will have hut three studies and greater thoroughness will lie required. Those who show unusual ability will be permitted to take more than the prescribed amount of work and may complete the course iu three and a half years, taking the diploma with the class at the close ot the year. This will allow them to en ter college one half y:>ar earlier if they so desire with the full credit lor all the work done. The change in course will not affect those who have already been in hig't school, hut only those entering this fall and hereafter. However those who are not able or willing to keep an average grade which will hereafter he determined and announced, will he required to take the work in four years, dropping some studies so as to maintain the grade in others. 1 will be in the office from one till half past three each dav to confer witli pupils, parents or teachers regarding the work. Those who did not make grade in some studies should see to the matter promptly if they do not wish to be kept back in some studies; for the hoard very wisely decided that no one save in very exceptional cases, would be allowed to take advanced work in any line in which there is work to he made up.

Gospel Temperance Meeting. A gospel temperance meeting will lie held this evening al the South Mission at 7:30. A good program has been prepared. Rev. YY\ YY\ YVhitcomb will speak Stolen. So far all evidence goes to show that the horse missing from Bryan A YT-stal’s stables yesterday morn ing was stolen during the night. Mr. Vestal left the barn at 1 :30 a tn. to catch a Vandalia train and did not return. Officer Ashley passed along Jackson street al about three o'clock and his attention was attracted hy hearing a horses foot beats. Looking up Franklin street he saw that the stable was brilliantly lighted and a man wearing a straw hat was riding a horse out ot the door. Mr. Bryan rode out toward Rockville % this morning following a clue re ceived from that direction. A Warm Member. The most calorific specimen of peripatetic muliebrity that has tra versed this portion of the mortal heritage in lo, these many moons, struck the town at about 11 o'clock yesterday morning and immediately attracted attention by asking in a strident tone of voice where iu Crawfordsville she could find a variously qualified Chinese laundry and whether a porcine caudal ap pendage was attached to the same. Upon receipt of the information she vanished in quest of the washee house and as yet has not made another appearance upon the forum. Monon to Rebuild. The wrecking of the Monon freight station at the north end. which has been so often attempted by the rolling stock, will be commenced next week on a more practical basis by the company. A handsome new station will he built on the same site. Meantime the offices will be in the Big Four building. Marriage Licenses. John YV. YValtcrs and Maude O’Meara; John M. McCoy and Essie M.

“I never in my life used such a thing as a poster or dodger or handbill. My ♦ plan fot twenty yean has been to buy to much space in n newspapei and fill i p X as i wanted, I would not give an advertisement in a newspapei of hundred circulation for five thousand dodgers or posters. If I wanted to sell cheap jewelry or run a gambling scheme I might use posters, but I would not insult a decent reading public with handbills, Pheclan of people who read them are too t,> look for support in mercantile affairs. I deal directly with the publisher. I say to him;‘How long will you let me run a column of matter through your paper for ftooor F500, as the case may be. I le< him do the figuring, and if 1 think he is not trying to take more than his share I give him the copy. I lay aside the profits on a particular line of goods for advertising purposes. At first I laid aside .*’,,000; last year I laid aside and spent $40,000. I have done liettcr this year and shall in’ crease that sum as the profits warrant it. 1 owe my success to newspapers, and to them I freely give a certain profit of my yearly business.” —The Fourth Estate.
