Lecture Course Announcement

L. B. Wickersham will appear Friday evening, Dec. 9, at the M. E. church, as the third number of the lecture course. Mr. Wickersham, though new to this community, is a widely known lecturer, having filled over sixteen hundred engagements in lowa, his native state, and also many others in the principal cities in the United States. Besides being the most expensive number on the course, the committee believes that in Mr. Wickersham they have secured a lecturer who will please the people. Judging from the patronage at the Miles lecture, Oct. 25, and the Schubert concert and entertainment, Nov. 30, people have been well pleased so far and a large audience will greet Mr. Wickersham on Friday evening.

Indiana Fanners Meet in 8th Annual Convention on Dec. 20th.

The Farmers’ State Congress of Indiana will hold its eighth annual convention in the Appellate Court room, State Hqvyse,.Dejc..2O and 21. There will of interest to farmers will be discussed by men who are authorities cn farm management. Among the speakers will be William Holton Dye, president of the Indiana branch of the National Conservation Association; Charles L. Jewett, president of the Indiana Council of the National Civic Federation, and President Stone, of Purdue University. The congress was organized seven years ago and has been active in the interests of the farmers of the state, being to them what the Farmers’ National Congress has been to the farmers of the nation. Its membership consists of three or more from each county-of the state as appointed delegates, county farmers’ institute chairmen being delegates by virtue of their position, as are also those who were delegates to the last session of the Farmers’ National Congress. Farmers of the state are invited and requested to be present and will be accorded all the privileges of the meetings and will be given opportunity to take part in the discussions. From assurances already received by the program and other committees it is expected that the coming session will be by far the most important in the history of the congress. The program follows: Tuesday Morning. Address—Governor Marshall.

Address—“ The Importance of Farmers Being Represented in Congress and State Legislature,” L. J. Coppage - , Crawfordsville. Address—“ Why We Do Not Get the Legislation We Want and Should Have,” John M. Stahl, Chicago. Tuesday Afternoon. Address—“ Should the Farmers’ Congress and Farmers’ Institute Be More Closely Allied, and How to Secure It?” D. F. Maish, Frankfort. Miscellaneous business and appointing committees. Tuesday Evening. Address—“ Report of Last National Farmers’ Congress—lts Manner and Effect,” Joshua Strange, Marion. Wednesday Morning. Address—President Stone, of Purdue University. Address—“ Uniform Laws of the State,” Charles L. Jewett, president of the Indiana Council of the National Civic Federation, New Albany. Report of committees. Wednesday Afternoon. Address—“ Conservation of Our State’s Natural Resources,” William Holton Dye, Indianapolis, president of the Indiana branch of the National Conservation Association. Time for a discussion of all subjects will be allowed at the various sessions. £

This was the third year in which we have secured Mr. L. B. Wickersham to lecture here. We took pains to look him up before we engaged him the first time, but he has now, with Sunday lectures and a sermon, given us six addresses, and his house is larger every time. The single ticket receipts this time were eighty-one dollars and seventy-five cents —a sum that probably no other man could havj realized. Wickersham has been our standard for some time and few came up to the standard, though we have had some good ones.—W. E. Ray, Colby, Kansas. At the M. E. church, Friday evening, Dec. 9th.

A club house, built jointly by a number of Moroccoites, on the banks of the Kankakee river, was informally dedicated on Thanksgiving day, with a turkey dinner and a general good time by its owners and some of their friends. The main building is 12x48 6 ’feet, one story high, and is partitioned into several rooms so that a goodly number of people can be accommodated at a time. There is also a kitchen, and an 8-foot porch running the entire length of the building.— Kentland Democrat.

Estel E. Pierson Now a Tax Ferret in South Dakota.

J. M. Pierson, who recently moved to Mitchell, S.- Dak., writes a v short letter saying that a fine fall has prevailed at Mitchell and that Mrs. Pierson has enjoyed much improved health since going there. He says that he is workfng every day and considers that a fine country, although somewhat colder than it was where they spent last year, in Muskogee, Ok) a. He sends a clipping of a newspaper relating to a case junt decided by the supreme court of that state. The commissioners of Minnehaha county contracted with two tax ferrets, one of whom was Estel E. Pierson, formerly of Union township, Jasper county, and once the republican candidate for county clerk. The ferrets went to wdrk and dug up something like a million dollars worth of sequestered securities in the form of mortgages. The law there is the same as in Indiana, providing fob the taxation of mortgages, which amounts to a double tax. It seemed to be a gen-, eral practice there to fail to report mortgages for taxation and the tax ferrets had easy sailing, but an organization was formed among mortgage owners and action brought to restrain the ferrets from proceeding with their work. The circuit court decided against the ferrets. The paper expresses the hope that tax ferrets wjll be put to work in enough states to create general sentiment against the law that provides for the taxation of mortgages. There is much criticism in this state also about the taxation of mortgage indebtedness, which amounts to the taxation a second time of the value represented by the mortgage and there seems no reason for the existence of the law, but no effort seems to have been made to repeal it.

T. D. Johnson, who left Monticello and located at Fayettesville, Ark., is not pleased with the change, and in a letter to the Monticello Journal tells the reason why. He says the country is erroneously advertised by real estate men, whom he accuses of being a set of grafters. He says they are making a good thing off credulous northern and eastern people. He says the so-called fruit farms are a great hoax, especially the apples. It would be hard to find an orchard that it not for sale, he states, owing to the fact that only about once in five years they have a crop. Changeable weather in the spring ruins the buds. He says he has seen just as nice apples and peaches in Indiana as he has in Arkansas. There are water famines in the summer also to cause‘trouble. The system of taxation there is fierce, according to Mr. Johnson, who says that every business and about everything one owns is taxed. It costs from $lO to SSO to start a hotel or boarding house, for license alone. Private buggies pay an annual tax of from $4 to $7 and cabs from $lO to $25, and a fee of $1.75 is for the issuance of the license. Every voter is charged $5 per year for street improvement and he says the streets of Fayetteville show that the money goes for graft instead of improvement. No Arkansas for me, says Mr. Johnson, I’m going back to my wife’s relation.

D. D. Gleason was down from Keener township today. He had been in Chicago about a week, attending the stock show and looking after some business. He was 70 years of age Monday, but don’t look it, and we don’t believe he feels it, either. Asked what he raised on his Keener township farm this year he replied: 500 bushels of potatoes, 1,460 bushels of oats, 1,000 bushels Of corn and 430 bushels of wheat. Mr. Gleason favors the building of needed public improvements and he would like to see the new road built in that township, but realizes that the appropriation is not large enough and that it can’t be built until the estimate is raised. The lecture course committee made no mistake when they selected L. B. Wickersham for one of the numbers of the course. People of Sparta have listened to many great men, but in the estimation of a large majority of the audience Monday evening, the Wickersham lecture was the finest ever heard in Sparta. He carried his audience by storm. For one hour and three quarters he held his audience so closely that the time seemed far too short, and when he closed the people were loth to leave their seats. He came to Sparta a stranger, but he will be welcomed again at any time in the future.—Sparta (Mich.) Sen- ( tinel-Leader. At M. E. church, Friday evening, Dec. 9.

The Indianapolis city council ha; every appearance of being composed of a lot of boys. The proceedings, with charges and semi-charges against public utility companies trying to influence legislation, and with bickerings that assail the honor of members of the council, make the published proceeding look very ridiculous. 1 Our underwear business has certainly been phenominal—way beyond our expectations.

HANGING GROVE.

Miss Mae Hooker is visiting her sister, Mrs. Lambert, and family. James Haynes and family, of Milroy, have moved to McCoysburg. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Lefler visited .with Mr. -and Mrs. Wm. Jacks and family Sunday. < Edna Lefler returned home Sunday morning, after a few days’ visit with relatives in Lee.* Rollin and Arthur Stewart went to Chicago early Saturday morning to “attend the stock show. Temple Hammerton, of Rensselaer, has been visiting Mr. and Mrs. Ed Peregrine for the past few days. Miss Anna Zabel has returned home from Monticello, where she has been taking care of Mrs. Harvey Phillips. The box' social and entertainment at Banta school will be Friday evening, Dec! 9th, the evening before the one at Moore school. R. S. Drake has spent a day or two hunting for his seven calves that have been gone for a week, and up to Saturday has found no trace of them but once, and then they had been seen in the road near Ralph Lewis’ in Barkley. There are four black odes, two roans and one red one. A few of Ed Peregrine’s kin folks came in Sunday and ate birthday dinner with him. Mr. Peregrine was 58 years old on Dec. 3rd, and is one of the oldest settlers now in Hanging Grove. He will hold a public sale about the middle of January and move to South Dakota March Ist.

Baptist Church Services.

The annual business meeting of the church w*il be held on Wednesday evening at 7:00 o’clock. All the members are earnestly requested to attend. The Woman’s Missionary meeting will be held with Mrs. Harkrider, on Friday afternoon, at 2:00 o’clock. Sunday morning the pastor will preach a missionary sermon on the missionary work of our publication society. The missionary offerings of this quarter go to this work, and we are now in the last month of the quarter. Sunday evening the theme will be, “Church Unity,” and will be a reply to or review of a sermon preached last Sunday by Cardinal Gibbons, and published in the Inter Ocean Monday. Junior B. Y. P. U. will hold its meeting on Sunday afternoon, and the Seniors, Sunday evening before the preaching service. J. P. GREEN, Pastor. Mr. and Mrs. John Eger returned last evening from Chicago. They spent Sunday afternoon at the hospital where little Jack Larsh has been since his accident. They also bring home fine reports concerning him and think that he will be well enough to be brought home within the next week, He is somewhat deaf and may be left slightly affected that way. One of his eyes is also a little out of adjustment and he now sees double, but the surgeon said the correction of that would be a simple operation to be undertaken a little later. He is bright and cheerful, and while the doctors at the hospital thought the chances about a. hundred to one against him when he was taken there, they now consider him entirely out of danger.

Those who attended the Wickersham lecture at the church Tuesday evening went out expecting to hear something good, but few were prepared for the rare treat which they enjoyed. For an hour and forty minutes Mr. Wickersham held his audience spellbound and at the n'ose nearly all rushed forward to grasp him by the hand. Mr. Wickersham’s mastery of ideas, control of language, and self-possession are truly marvelou,, and he has been voted by many the strongest man who ever appeared upon our lecture platform. No one heard the lecture who didn’t rs-’eive many times the worth of his money, and those who failed to hear him suffered an irreparable loss.—St. Francis (Kans.) Herald. At M. E. church, Friday evening, Dec. 9th. Our Classified Column will sell, buy, find, rent, or exchange it. Phone 18.
