"WANT INFOKMATION.

The Ex-Prisoners of War Want to Hear from Candidates.

At the recent meeting of the Ex Prisoners of War association, held at Brazil, the following resolutions were adopted:

Whereas, we, aa ex-prisoners of war, deem it but justice to ourselves that we should know who our friends nre in congress, and who will further our interests in the passage of what is known as the "Robiuson bill be it therefore

Resolved, That we demand an unequivocal expression from our candidates for congress in this 8th congressional district of Indiana and that they give us said expression without further delay.

Resolved, That we, as ex-prisoners of war. pledge ourselves thaf we will support for congress only those who work and vote, through all honorable means, to thus further and consummate our interests in the passage of said "Robinson bill."

A Lost Boy.

Saturday afternoon, a woman from Prairieton lost her boy on the streets, and was rushing around in a lively manner looking for him. A Main street business man noticed her trou bled looks and asked her what she was looking for. "For my boy. He's lost, and I don't know what to do." "What's his name?" asked the business man. "I'll report it to the po lice?" "Theotopolis Augustus Stephens," said the woman. "If he hasn't been missing over an hour there certainly should be a tail end of that name loose around here some place and if we can only get a sight of it we will surely find the lad."

The Rain.

Yesterday was the most disagreeable day of the fall. It began raining in the forenoon and continued all day. The rain was cold, and people who were compelled to be out were truly unfortunate. A weather profit told an Express reporter Saturday that it would rain as there was always rain in October when heavy white frost fell. "It may snow," said he, "but after it clears up we will have fine weather, as Indian summer is to come yet."

A Westfleld Editor Torn* Himself Loose On a Wedding.

The editor of the Westfield Pantagraph spread himself last week writing an account of a wedding. The editor may not know it, but he has proven himself the boss Jenkins of America, and if he will present himself, properly attiied, at the office of any great American newspaper, armed with his wedding article, he will be sure to secure a life situation. The wedding the editor attended was at Smithdale. He Bays:

But before we write of the wedding we will speak of our own antecedent experiences, both individually and collectively. Wednesday morning we left Charleston, on the 3 o'clock passenger. We reached Windsor at 4 a. m. After using some very forcible language and making an awful noise kicking doors, we aroused the dispenser of provender at the Windsor house and were admitted into its sacred precincts. We breakfasted on the historic sole-leather beefsteak, and at 9:50 were aboard the train for Steator. Abont this time nothing but the returns from Ohio were talked of. A cranky

Dutchman was on the same train with us, and at every station he got off the train to talk, between stations he nearly talked, the passenger to death.

The above is an indication of the kind of a "traveling correspondent" he would make. Now, lend your end and sample him as a Jenkins:

Along time before 12 m., the hour of the ceremony, large parties of friends and relatives began to assemble at the palatial resi dence. The bride wore a telegraphic blue silk and orange blossoms. Her appearance Was exquisite. Of the divinest queens none was more attractive than she. The groom, too, was elegantly attired, wearing a "Prince Albert" and white satin tie. Rev. Powel officiated.

After doing justice to the ceremony, he turns himself loose on the repast, and the Express will give a red wagon to the man that will beat it:

After spending sometime in congratulations the guests were invited to the dining-room to partake of a sumptuous feast. Just here again onr vocabulary is to limited to do the occasion justice, But where we fail now we more than succeeded at dinner. We did not see how the table could stand under its load, In addition to every esculent fruit grown in temperate regions all the finest of tropical fruits were on the table. We cannot mention particularsy but there were fiftv-seven different kinds of cake. The "wedding cake" was pyramidical in form and at its greatest circumference about teen feet and it was over six feet high. It would have been higher, but they did not care to remove the ceiling we suppose. There were over forty different kinds of pie and other things in proportion.

BIRTHS, DEATHS, MARRIAGES

The Nninber of Births, Deaths and Marrlages in Indiana In a Year.

The vital statistics of Indiana for the vear ending September 30,1883, is now in possession of all physicians, and it contains some very interesting and valuable information. During that time there were 962 births in Vigo county, 522 males and 440 females. There were more births In September than any other month, 114, of which 67 were males and 47 females. During the months ot April, June, November and December the births of females out numbered the males, and during the other months the males outnumbered the females. During the period there were 37,695 births in the state, 19,547 males and. 18,148 females. During the period there were 408 illegitimate children born within the state, 217 males and 191 females. The proportion of males to the total births was 51.85 per cent., but in the illegitimate class 53.18 were males, proving the correctnes of the popular belief that more than the ordinary per cent, of illegitimate births are males. Of the illegitimate births 387 of the mothers were Americans and 21 foreign a per cent of 94.85 Americans. The per cent, of American mothers to the total birthwas 91.50, showing that the native population exceed in the birth of illegitimate children. The proportion of white mothers to the total births was 98.38, yet the proportion of white mothers in illegitimate births was only 89.21 percent, showing a difference of nearly 10 per cent, in favor of the virtue of the whites. During the period there were 14,925 deaths in the state 7,760 males, and 7,165 females. There were 542 deaths in Vigo county 281 males, and 262 females. November and June were the healthiest months, and August and September the unhealthiest. The following is the per cent, of deaths for the months: January, 8 39 February, S.61 March, 8.97 April, 8.32 May, 7.77 June, 6.86 July, S 59 Au« gust, 9.93 September, 9.93, October, 8.47 November, 7.07: December, 7.69,

There were 19,562 marriages in the state during the period. Estimating the population at 2,083,336, there were 18.9 births to each 1,000 of population, 7.1 deaths, and 9.3 marriages to the

HIGH FENCES.

People Who Build High Fences to Shut OffVlews.

A year or so ago Mr. August Busch of the firm of Bauermeister & Busch purchased a house and lot of Mr. C. P. Staub, on south Fourth street, No. 311 It is quite a nice piece of property, and he gave Mr. Staub $5,000 for it. When he bought the house there was a fine view north and south from the front part. Last fall Mr. Staub built a double tenement house on the north side,even with the street, shutting off Mr. Busch's view from the north. On the south side of his new house Mr. Staub con structeda window, giving a view of Mi. Busch's handsome yard. Some days ago Mr. Staub, so he told an Ex press reporter,* heard that Mr. Busch intended to build a fence shutting off the view of the yard from the window. In ajfew days the fence was constructed, effectually shutting off the view of the yard as far as the window is concerned. When the fence was built the window shutters were closed, and it was uilt so close that it is impossible to open the shutters. And thus the matter stands at present, and is causing considerable merriment in the neighborhood. It may lead to a lawsuit.

People passing on south Second street will notice that the fence between No. 402 and 406 is built high by the side of the south window of No. 402. No. 402 is occupied by Mr. Edward Pace, a painter, and No. 406 by Mr. Thos. B. Carr, a clerk at M. Joseph's. It seems that there was a falling out between the two families, and Mr. Carr threatened to build a fence shutting off the view from Mr. Pace's window. Mr. Pace said he would knock it down if it was built. The fence was built and Mr. Paee knocked it down. It was put up again, and there it remains.

The River.

The river is now at a good boating stage, having risen about three feet, covering all tne sand-bars. It was on a stand yesterday, but the recent rains will probably cause it to rise several feet more.

Thigh Broken.

A few days ago the sixteen months' old son of Mr. Trivoli, comer of Fifth and Locust streets, in his play knocked a ladder down, which struck him and broke a thigh. He is getting along very nicely.

Gas for Fuel.

Mr. M. N. Dial returned yesterday from the east, where he has been attending a meeting of gas men. He is of the opinion that the company organized in this city last spring, of which be is a stockholder,, to manufacture and furnish gas for heating purposes, will be in operation in the course of a few years at the fartherest, He is paying attention to several cities where gas is furnished for fuel purposes and watching the results. So far everything has proved very satisfactory.

One of the Roberts Gang. Samuel Buxston, who was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary for burglary in Parke county, was taken to Jeffersonville yesterday morning by Sheriff Cleary. Buxston is supposed to have belonged to the Roberts gang. He can always be easily identified, as the ends are off the two first fingers on his right hand, said to have been cut off by the squeezing of a "jimmy."

All Saints' and All Souls' Days, Next Saturday is All Saints' day. St. Joseph will observe the day, is usual with Catholic churches. Mass for the laboring people will be held at 5 a. m. Mass will also be held at 7 a. m., and high mass and sermon at 10 a. m. The next day is All Souls' day, but as it falls on the Sabbath the exercises will held on Monday following.

Implements of War.

At police headquarters are preserved all the weapons taken away from prisoners, and the collection is a curious sight. There are revolvers of all descriptions, knives of all makes, loaded clubs and brass and lead "knucks." There are upwards of a hundred pieces, all secured since the present force went on.

A New Christian Church. The mission established on South Thirteenth-and-a-half street has proven very successful, so much so that a large building has been secured on Thirteenth street. The church trustees are now looking around for a lot and will probably purchase one this week, in that locality, on which to erect a church next spring.

His Horse is Missing.

A mover camped across the river north of the grade Saturday night, and yesterday morning he found one ef his horses missing. His son was also missing. The mover said his son did not desire to go west and he suppoeed he took the horse and started for Ohio, whence they came.

Broke an Arm.

YesterJay morning Thomas Lafferty, a farmer, who remained in the city over Saturday night, stopping at a friend's on south First street, was currying his horses when one of them kicked him. He was knocked against the barn door, an arm broken, and his chest bruised. He was in a critical condition when taken home yesterday.

Baldwin Arrested.

Yesterday forenoon, Chief Vandever arrested Stephen Baldwin, the policy man, on the charge of conducting a gaming-house. Baldwin deposited $75 lor his appearance to-day. He was fined £10 and costs in the circuit court a few days ago on the same charge.

The Meeting To-Night. The Hon. Phillip Rappaport, of Indi. anapolis, the candidates for the legislature and the county candidates will speak at Dowling hall to-night. Mr. Rappaport will speak in German.
