Fatted Ox to Be Slaughtered In Honor of the Parr Creamery.

The town of Parr will have a big blow out on Saturday, June 4th, in celebration of the recent starting of their new creamery. The biggest feature of the event will be the roasting of a fat steer and the serving of a big dinner.

Dr. Samuel E. Sparling, one of the leaders in the county of dairying interests, will speak. During the afternoon there will be a ball game and other amusements and all of Parr and south Union township will be the hosts and try to make a good time for all the visitors. The well known habit Parr has of doing things right should attract a big crowd, while the novelty of butchering and roasting a whole beef will be worthy going miles to see.

Comet Ytsible Nightly in The West Soon After Dark.

Most people have seen the comet by this time.

Each evening it is visible in the west from shortly after sundown to about 10 o’clock. The comet is rather indistinct but is beautified by a ray of light which proceeds from it, appearing much like a search light. Its brilliancy pierces the sky for a long distance. The comet is gradually receding and will not be visible many nights. It is not so large nor so striking as we had been led to believe it would be and the comet of 1882, which many persons hereabouts should remember and which appeared nightly in the north for some time, was larger, more brilliant and apparently much nearer the earth'.

The comet should appear best tonight, if the sky is clear at about 8:30 o’clock. As the moon is full it doubtless detracts greatly from the brilliancy of the comet.

Why Libel a Shite?

A good many people have noticed that the Indianapolis news is making a specialty of following up the field examiners now operating under the new accounting law, and whenever a township trustee is found short, playing it up under scare headlines as a vindication of the new law. In this way an impression is created that the state is honeycombed with dishonesty and graft, w r hile as a fact, dishonest officials are only rare exceptions and honest ones the rule throughout the state. The Indianapolis Sun, under the caption “Why Libel a State?” gives this propensity of the News a well deserved airing. It says: . . “The protest of township officials and local newspapers all over Indiana against the libeling of the state by the Indianapolis News in conjunction with the State Bureau of Accounts is justifiable. The News is to be given credit for its work in getting the accounting law upon the statute books that being its pet measure at the last legislature. But it is not necessary to give out the impression that every township official is a crook, a defaulter or a thief in order to prove the law a good one, and it certainly is not within the province of the State Board of Accounts to act as an attache of the News in its abetting of this injustice.

Hundreds of trustees have been examined by the state bureau and those who have been found in error in their accounts have been comparatively few. while of these a great many were in fault only in technical bookkeeping; there being no evidence of any shortage or willful violation of the law. But the State Bureau of Accounts has not seen fit to put the best side foremost. It has given out with great gusto every delinquency of every kind %nd has done so in order that the News might make capital of it. As stated in the Sun yesterday, the field examiners of this state office have gone so far as to deny information to local papers in the state, telling them to watch for the report in the News.

Is the Bureau of Accounts an agency of that paper, or is it a state bureau? The question is a pertinent one. It is not a question of sour grapes with the Sun; it would not have published these misleading reports had it been offered them. It simply protests in the name of justice and square dealing against the publication of every township delinquency in an elaborate form, and making no mention of the vast majority of township trustees who have , made competent and trustworthy' officials. It gives people in Indiana and those outside of the state the grossly erroneous impression that this state is infested with incompetents. What is worse, such persistent libeling of towSiship officials brings the office into disrepute and begets the very weakness the law purports to cure. Let us have a stop to it."

War Time Aquaintunce of General Writes Letter From Fayette, Mo.

The National Tribune of May 19th contained an article from Rensselaer asking aid for the Milroy monument from any old aquaintances of General Milroy who might chance to know him. The appeal was made by the Milroy Circle, Ladies of the G. A. R. The first reply came this morning, and while no aid was received the letter was quite interesting as it tells of the impression its whiter had of our most distinguished soldier.

The letter is from Dr. C. W. Watts, of Fayette, Mo., who belonged to the 42d Missouri volunteers during the civil war and which regiment was in General Milroy’s division. Although a surgeon in the army, Dr. Watts was temporarily transferred to General Milroy as his commissary and became very well acquainted with both General Milroy and his brother, whom he describes as being his warm personal friends. Dr. Watts writes: “I loved the old general, who was as brave as a lion, an<T always led his men to victory. While he was a strict disciplinarian, he was always reasonable and tender with us. He meant what he said, acted with celerity and had no patience with a coward. I never met with him after Lee’s surrender, although I had promised to visit him in Rensselaer. He returned to Indiana, I to Missouri. I would so much like to hear from you as to his last days, where he died and about his family. You will never know how much we old soldiers thought &£ him. I am getting very old and live with my children, but I take a deep interest in this memorial to my old general and hope that it is fittingly erected and dedicated to hist memory.”

Mab and Nim Hopkins went to Terre Haute today to attend the G. A. R. convention. All are soldiers but the latter who thought he would like to see the gathering anyway. Howard Gibbs, of Princeton, 111., the owner of the K. of P. building, is still here and is said to be quite apt to sell the building before leaving the city. He has had several offers for it, it is said, and it is not improbable that the building will be disposed of to some local party within the next few days. Every room in the building is now rented to responsible tenants.

The armory has been very handsomely decorated by the Juniors for their reception to the Seniors tonight. The two suites of rooms in the front part of the building have been made a part of the armory now and are available to those renting the main building on general dccasions. One suite is still unfurnished. The Juniors bave taken a great deal of pride in making the rooms look attractive and the main room is hung with streamers and decorated with pennants, while potted flowers add greatly to the general attractiveness.

A pretty home wedding was solemnized on Wednesday evening, the 25th, at the residence of James M. Gorget, of northwest Barkley township, the contracting parties being Edward Hornickle, of Roberts, Ford county, 111., and Margaret 8., second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gorbet. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. H. Hess, of Warsaw, assisted by Rev. W. E. Schafer, of Aix, in the presence, of only the immediate family of the bride. The wedding march was played by Mrs. Schafer. Mr. and Mrs. Hornickle left by an earl/ train Thursday for their home in Illinois. Dyspepsia is America's curse.
