There is talk at Monticello to the effect that the Monori talks of disposing with a night man at the depot. For some time now there has been no night operator at the station afid the Journal complains of inconveniences resulting to passengers and also claims that the mail service is not what it should 'be and that it will be worse if the station is kept closed at night.

A fellow over in Logansport named Frank Stone was released from the Cass county jail last Friday after serving thirty days on the charge of drunkenness. He had no money but was the owner of a fairly good hat, which he immediately pawned for enough money to again fill his hide full of John Barleycorn and Monday morning he was sent back to jail to board another fifteen days at public expense. The authorities should see to it that he has no clothes to spare the next time he is turned out. Whitsell Lewis, an old soldier and a well respected man, seems to be having considerable trouble with his family and one night recently he is said to have been quite badly used up by the combined attack of other members of the family. The Republicans knows nothing about the nature of the domestic difficulties, but neighbors seem inclined to think that the old gentleman is considerably abused and lay the trouble at the door of a step-son-in-law'. Mr. Lewis is probably sev-enty-five years of age. •> Miss Helen Parkinson, daughter of Attorney and Mrs. W. H. Parkinson, entertained a dozen girl friends yesterday afternoon for her house guests, Misses Amy Johnson and Esther Lyons, of Attica, and for Miss Gladys Jackson, who recently, came home (from Evanston.
