Jacob Srunger of East Hartford j township moved into the Robert ISimison home stead on Tuesday having rented the farm. Rev. Joseph Egly delivered this farewell sermon at the mission ’church on the Sabbath. He with his family leaves for Arizona this week. We notice an articlA from the pen of Mr. Johnson of Fort Wayne recommending the pardon of Fred Richard, an Adams county criminal. In case Mr. Johnson was familiar with the facts how that the people in various parts of the county had endured at the hands of that fiend in the form of a human form und finally breaking into the house I ■of Amos Bakestoe and there in cold blood murder him in his bed in the j prescence of his defensless wife, i He surely would not extend the pro ■posed mercy. No Richards does well and we beleive that we voice , the people of Adams county famil-. tar with Richard’s lecord, that he I who signs for his pardon should expand his charity and propose to take his place behind the bars. No 20 years does not atone for a crime no henious. As to his reform, we

Lawrence now steps about as does a chanticleer being well socked for the winter. The gross roeiepts amounting to $41.90, 1 but the contesting feature of the affair being a factor to rob the occasion of much sociability is deplorI ed. At the instigation of our very worthy superintendent of the county infirmary your iteimzer and Mr. Fred Scherer of Wabash township visited that institution last Friday evening and enjoyed the hospitality tendered by the host and hostess. With merited pride the host drew our attention to all parts of the large and commodious builidng solicting our inspection of wardrobes and larder well filled for the winter. Clothing including underwear are here found in plenty to suit a queens taste. The underwear is all made from the fabric at the institution without extra cost of the county and Mr. and Mrs. Graber make no j mistake when he states that garI meats thus made out wear and come cheaper than when bought ready made. Besides they are mended and remended when private families would transfer them to the junk man. Did I say the larder was full? Yes, vegetables of all kinds in plenty and to spare. As no small sum is realized in the sale of surplus. An inspection of the stock yards you will find progress mani-

OLD AND NEW WAY. Hyomei the Latest Scientific Discovery for the Cure of Catarrh. The discovery of Hoymei has wrought a wonderful change in the treatment of catarrh Prior to three years ago the medicines ordinarilyemployed in the cure of this disease were nauseating drugs and worthless tonics. In some instances they benetitted, but the mproviment was not lasting. With Hyomei you take into the air passages of the throat and head a balsamic air that goes to the min utest cells, effectually killing all germs and microbes of catarrh. It enters the blood with oxygen, killing the germs in the blood, and restores health to the whole system. Many astonishing testimonials have been received from those who have been cured by Hyomei. A complete outfit costs but SI.OO and includes an inhaler, dropper and sufficient Hyomei for several weeks treatment. Perhaps the strongest evidence that can be given to doubters, is the fact that The Holthouse Drug Co. have so much faith in Hyomei that they sell every package under a | positive guarantee to refund the money if it does not cure. Now is the time to begin the use j of Hyomei. Old papers for sale at this office. For Sale —Bay’ mare and two calves. Prices right. Inquire of R. V.

Nov. 5 --« e ' u ™: < which are complete, save for a few , scattered precincts in remote parts of the state, give Governor Beckham (Dem.) for governor, a majority of . 30 408 over Morris B. Belknap, his Republican opponent. The missing p.ecincts are in both Republican and Democratic strongholds, yet the assertion seems warranted that the K"' rer dot’s final and official majority will he not less than 25.000. This is he largest majority given a Democratic gub ernatorial candidate In fifteen years. Delayed Returns in Maryland. Baltimore.

McComas. It is con ceded that the Democrats will have on joint ballot 82 votes in the general assembly to 41 Republican. Genera Warfield's plurality in the state will probably reach 8,000. Hawaii Goes Republican. Honolulu. Nov. s.—Complete election returns from Oahu county, in which this city is located, show that the Republican candidates with a few exceptions have been successful by [ very close margins. The home rulers secured the assessor, surveyor and four supervisors. In East Hawaii the I Republicans elected their entire ticket, except four supervisors, for which places home rulers were chosen. Slow Returns in Nebraska. Lincoln. Neb., Nov. s.—Definite figures on Tuesday’s election probably will be lacking for a day or two. Sufficient returns have been received, however, to make it certain that Bernes has been elected associate justice of the supreme court by from 7,00 b to 11,000. and the balance of the Republican state ticket by about 14,000.
