Extended the Time. “Owing to the change being made in the gas line from the old to the new field all the consumers may expect a light shortage of gas for at least two weeks, which time it will take to make the change and to connect up the new wells to the line now being laid. As soon as the new line is the wells connected we exjiect to give better service, by far than that given during the past two years. The company now has meters on hands it is urgently requested that all persons who expect to use gas this winter will leave their order for a meter at once so that the company may be able to make orders in advance to the manufacturers for what meters we may need for other consumers. We are paying a bonus to the manufacturers in order to get all meters to supply our patrons at once and it is very hard to get an order, for the demand on the manufacturers is so great that their capacity is almost exhausted. All the gas companies located in the gas belt have been driven to the meter system in order to supply their customers. We being some 42 miles from the gas field] are driven to force the gas such a long distance, requiring the best class of pumping machinery and from *OO to 1000 horse power steam to drive the great air pressure to supply our customers with gas that it entails an enormous expense. J. S. Bowers. Owing to the scarcity of meters and the slowness of the manufacturers to supply our orders we have extended the time for consumers to supply themselves with meters until November Ist. After that date gas will be sold only to those people who have the meters. This matter refers to consumers in Decatur. Monroe, Berne and all others along our line. J. S. Bowers.

IT IS 10 LAUGH Governor Durbin Not Certain Whether to Get Mad Or Look Pleasant. When Governor of Kentucky Steamsd Away and Left Him in the Rain It Aroused Thoughts. Unfortunate Incident Connected With a Trip to the Blue Grass Region. — Indianapolis, Oct. 9. —Public opinion seems to be pretty evenly divided here as to whether or not Governor Beckham of Kentucky intentionally slighted Governor Durbin when, at ter inviting the Indiana governor to accompany him, his train pulled out of Howard station, leaving Governor Durbin and his companions in the rain. Those who remember the efforts of Governor Beckham and other prominent Goebelftes to get possession of Taylor and Finley—and nearly everyone remembers —are wondering if Governor Beckham was trying to "get back" at Governor Durbin for refusing to honor the requisitions. The gpvernor and his friends seem to be trying to make the best of the contretemps by treating the incident as the fault of the railroad and not of Governor Beckham, but it is not hard to see that some of them ate very indignant. Ro far as Governor Durbin is concerned he is too polished a gentleman and too shrewd a politician to let anyone think that he regards tbe incident as a slight, but he may not be expressing his private opinions. Whatever may b? the truth of the situation, it is regarded as very unfortunate that the governor's trip should have been attended by so un pleasant an incident.
