Two Ministers Move Out; Gar Loads of Booze Move In.

Monticello Journal. There was a combination of religion and intoxication at Gas City a few days ago that for a purely accidental happening beats' a flood story. Standing on the public unloading track of the Pennsylvania lines were six cars, the first containing the household goods of the Ch nation minister, who was moving to Winamac, the second was a car of whisky from Fort Wayne; number three was filled with the household goods of the Methodist minister, who was removing from Gas City to Greentown, each of Kokomo; car number four was a load of liquor from Columbus, Ohio; the fifth car was being unloaded by the Metho dist minister who was moving from Hartford City to Gas City to take the place of the brother going to Greentown, and the sixth car contained a cargo of beer from Marion. It is declared the makeup of this bunch of differences was a matter of pure accident, but from an artistic standpoint it was enough to start a riot.
