Some Notes of Interest From the Monticello Journal.

Dr. Cray was called to the home of Jlr. Cheek Sunday to attend t v he little five-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Schnepp, who had two fingers cut off in a lawn mower. John Wesley Hamilton, .of Frankfort, and William J. Shields, of Ih» dianapolis, two old-time Tippecanoe river fishermen, came to dally for a while with the finny tribes in the waters of old The information that Harry Bennett and Harvey Doran had about depopulated the river-had no terrors for them. They Will be satisfied with what is left. Norway will breath easier this evening and hereafter. The gypsies are gone. The funeral, of their king was delayed this, ipoming bn account of non-arrival of any word from Danville as to arrangements for burial and th> party taking the body to that city did not leave here until noon. Immediately, after their left the remainder of the tribe began to break camp and departed, leaving Moi\ticello about 2 o’clock, headed fpr Danville also. C. E. Harlacher arrived home yesterday afternoon, from a three month’s sojourn at Hot Springs, South Dakota. On his way back he stopped at Madison, Wis., for a. week to attend the International Bible Students Convention and to hear Pastor Bussell. He says® immense crowds attended these h§§|| ings and he is greatly pleased with the sermohs he heard. The stay at the Soldiers’: Home at Hot Springs benefited hiin greatly and he likes the place very much.

RAGE TRACK MEET A BIG FAILURE

Chicago Sports Won’t Attend Porter Races Unless They Gan Gamble on Results. ■'•W - Valparaiso Vidette. little by little the sport at the Mineral Springs race course is dying. Day after day the crowd grows less. This Is the opinion of nearly every one wh6, visits the resort from this district. Yesterday, is is said, there was less than four hundred people on the grounds, and these were far from enthusiastic, One of the features of the afternoon was a storm of wind and rain. Another was what looked for a time like a “blow” to the whole concern. That Was when the horse owners announced to the management, that unless the purses already won were paid to them, there- would be no more racing. After a confab matters were adjusted by cutting purses from |3OO to $125. Sheriff W. S. Lindall was on the job with a nuipber of deputies whom he notified to arrest all law violators and take'them to Valparaiso for trial. Prosecutor Walter Fabing asserted that he would hereafter demand jail sentences for any caught gambling. As a result Of this, money seemed as scarce as, the proverbial hen’s teeth. The most interested spectator present was Justice T. B. Louderback, who had the responsibility the ev-, ening before of imposing a fine oh four alleged gamblers'. He was handed a pass by the manapement and went unhindered to all pcurts of the enclosure. “I never saw so quiet a bunch of people at a /ace eoiirse,” he said this morning in telling of his experience. "Not once did I see any money .pasfe Gambling is probably going in its own quiet.way,i but I cah not detect It, and if the officers manage to make just a Jew arrests it is sufficient evidence that they are on the alert.” Mr. Louderbark stated, however, that there was one place which was a puzzle to him and even looked suspicious. That is at the secretary’s office north of the paddock. There he saw money paid over, He asked what this was for'and the men in charge asserted that the horse owners were paying their rent But the Valparaiso justice was skeptical. He is still of the opinion that men paid money In there who never owned a horse. " No arrests were made yesterday. W. E. Duncan, $ member of th/ public utilities commission, who had, been sent to the track by tjto' governor to get information first hand as to conditions, conferred with Prosecutor Fabing. v • The Main Garage now offers day and night service Livery cars for hire.

Hurley Beam Brought Home In Improved Condition.

Hurley Beam was able to stand the trip home from the hospital in Chicago today and arrived im the 11:32 train. He is very weak from the loss of blood and takefe only liquid nourishment. The indications are very favorable for rapid improvement and complete recovery.

The Republican was in error by reason of misinformation concerning his condition Wednesday. There has been no hemorrhage from the artery in the throat since the clamp was removed at 11 o’clock Monday night and the surgeon Who was in charge states that there is small probability that the hemorrhages will recur. Dr. Richter, the surgeon, gave the case the most careful attention and the family is now satisfied that the operation was performed in an entirely able manner, the only possible critfcisrfi being that an attack was coming on when the operation was performed and the surgeon’s judgment would have been not to perform it at that time had lie known this fact. The inflammation of the tonsils indicated that It was a Subsiding and not a developing case. The method usgd. in the operation was the now coinihonly correct one. His improvement and the pros-
