His prize money was about $670. •Mayor Smith, of Delphi, is said to have a congressional bee buzzing in his bonnet. Being a good mayor seems to cause a number of men to think they are big enough for more important jobs. David Hinkley, a private in Company I, 3rd regiment of the Indiana National Guard, shot and killed himself in the armory at Kendallville Monday. He was handling an army revolver. Hinkley was 18 years of age. There was a large crowd at Winona last Sunday. The attractions included William Jennings Bryan, Rev. Billy Sunday and Madame SchumannTeink. It used to be that the “Peerless” William could draw a crowd as a single attraction. Little Don Merica, of Francesville, is here for a visit of a month with his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Beam. Mrs. Merica, who has been making an extended visit with her sister, Mrs. Trevor Wilcox, at North Pend, Oregon, is expected home in about two weeks.

Dave Bare's job will be the first one thrashed. Merrit Strain and Jim Whited arranged for the machine. Attorney Williams and The Republican editor went t.o Kentland Monday afternoon where Mr. Williams had legal buisness.'*" You find all Kentland promoting the cand'dacy of Warren T. McCray for governor and their endorsement is the enthusiastic kind that leaves no doubt that the home folks are all for him. W. F. Smith came over from Lapofite yesterday to look after the stone road work in Carpenter township. His son, Millard, who is now a “long pants” boy, came over for a visit of several days. Clarence Smith and wife are living in a tent near the scene of the road work, which he is helping to construct. At present the little railroad is being laid, preparatory to hauling the stone. Mr. and Mrs. Louis R. Fendig and two daughters, of Jacksonville, Fla., are here for a visit of two weeks or so with his brothers, B. F. and Samuel and other relatives and friends.

George reports that there was a killing frost there last Saturday night and that com and potatoes were much damaged. He likes the country there very well and says he never saw a better clover growth than there is there. Mr. Besse is engaged in clearing his place. The Indiana Times of last Friday published an article suggesting Will H. Hays, republican state chairman, as a probability for United States senator four years later, when the term of office of Benjamin F. Shively comes to an end. The Republican is a great admirer of Will Hays and believes him qualified to fill any position where a diligene worker, an honest man and a fearless advocate of the principles he holds-is needed. It is impossible to tell what may happen before a campaign to select Mr. Shively’s successor, but right now we can not think of any man in Indiana we would sooner support for the senate at that time.

The newspapers are making the most of the Gary tragedy and the murder of the Rev. Mr. Kayser has been called an international plot and an effort to prove him as a German spy. Evidently he was very indiscreet in his utterances and instead of confining his remarks to sympathy for Germany, he is said to have bitterly assailed the United States, which don’t sound very good to any loyal American. Residents of Gary to whom we have talked say that the newspapers have been sensationalizing the murder and that the talk of Kayser being a “spy” is tommyrot.

The swimming pool at Wolcott cost in money $587.60 and there was a great deal of labor in addition of which no account was made. There were a number of cash subscriptions from $lO up, the largest being S3O and E. W. Irwin, formerly of Rensselaer, being one of three to give this amount. There were a number of $lO, S2O and $25 subscriptions. Concerts resulted in raising $47.85. The disbursements show more than a s carload of cement was used and that one car cost $139.95 besides the freight which was $37.05. Other sand, cement and freight cost $99.71. It required $59.96 worth, of water pipe Most of the other items were in labor. This experience at Wolcott should give Rensselaer a fair idea of the expense that would be necessary here.

What ■Germany does in its diplomatic decisions relating to our protests concerning its undersea warfare it will evidently do in order to develop whatever relations it prefers to maintain with us. Writers had stated that Germany desired to extend its hostilities to this country in order to cause this country to retain its munitions supplies and thus damage the allies. The statement was preposterous but many believed it and had Germany not shown die proper spirit following its sea conduct there might have been cause to think, she” did not care. Now, however, she is disposed to be fair and to concede to our demands and the United States quite properly is showing its neutrality by demanding of England the right of the seas in the shipment of merchandise that is not contraband. It is probable, that had this demand been made earlier and had it been demanded that passenger vessels be not used to carry contraband the Lusitania horror would have been averted. Germany at this time seems desirous of doing the right thing, which means that she wants the continued friendship of the United States. We should not let this desire on the part of Germany influence us to take any advantage of that country by submitting to the domination of England in its sea policy. Surely there is no occasion for the United States to make any concessions to any , nation: It is a time for firm policies, • upholding the long established practice of unbending determination to show that we hold the United States supreme and propose to lay down to no nation on earth.

WINONA SOLD FOR HUNDRED THOUSAND

E. Excell, Representing Directors In Reorganization, Buys Wii*ona Assembly. The reorganization of the Winona Assembly and Summer Schools Association was made almost certain as the result of the purchase of the property Monday afternoon by E. O. Excell, of Chicago, who represents the old board of directors. As soon as the sale is approved by Sol A. Wood, receiver in bankruptcy, the reorganization of the new Winona will take place. The property was sold for $100,600, which was $2 above the appraisement. There was no other bid. The debts of the assembly aggregate about $900,000, and members of the old management assert that the property is worth almost that amount. A great cheer went up from the crowd when Mr. Excell handed over his check. It was announced that as soon as the sale was approved the settlement plan would be carried out. This plan provides for a reappraisement of the property for an amount equal to the claims held by those who have signed the agreement, and the property will then be distributed in proportion to the claims held, The reorganization plans provide for a new board of directors with W. J. Bryan at the headier. Dickey will be kept at the head of the Bible conference and in general charge of the program. Many liberal donations have already been made. Shares of stock are now being sold at $lO. One of the provisions of the new organization will be that no debt of more than SIO,OOO can ever be contracted and that amount only on a permanent improvement.

Uprising of Mexicans Frustrated By Police.

San Antonio, Tex., Aug. 30. With the arrest here of twenty-six Mexicans, twenty-three of whom were held late today, Chief of Police Lancaster and federal authorities announced that a plan to incite the Mexican population of San Antonio to deeds of violence had been frustrated. The order for a general arrest of all Mexican agitators was issued following a disturbance that was a sequel to a street meeting last night, during which one of the speakers declared that “it was no harm to kill a Gringo and an Allemarite,” meaning Americans and Germans, according to Chief Lancaster. The police charged the crowd and arrested three leaders after a fight, in "which one of the Mexicans shouted: “Now is the time to rise; let us kill the Gringoes.” A dragnet was then thrown out and suspects arrested today. Since the disturbances in the Brownsville district special agents of the United States department of justice, and police officers have been keeping a close watch to prevent a possible uprising in San Antonio. They learned several agitators were here but until last night’s meeting they did not attempt to create any disorders.

Sam Fendig made a trip to Chicago today. Mrs. W. H. Beam made a trip to Chicago*today. Mike Kanne made a trip to Fiflhikfort today. John Keefe came from Indianapolis today to look after his farming interests. Mrs. Sherman White, of Brook, was here a short time this morning on her way to Mon’on. v Miss Helen Murray will leave next Saturday for Central)a, 111., where she will again teach school the coming year.

CIRCUS COMES WITH RISING SUN

Gentry Brothers Trains Will Arrive Here Early In the Morning On Thursday, September 2nd. The* first section of the trains bringing Gentry Brothers famous shows will arrive in this city Thursday, Sept. 2, at 6 o’clock in the morning. Arrangements are made for track room for the trains, that are today twice as large as ever before. With the stopping of the first wheel a host of showmen will tumble forth from their berths, refreshed by a night’s sleep. Almost before the earliest riser is astir the show lots will be transformed into a city of canvas coliseums. To the casual observer this will be accomplished in great disorder. But the training of the circus is such that no man makes an unnecessary move or wastes energy. At 10 o’clock the famous parade of the Gentry Brothers Famous Shows will leave the grounds. It will traverse the principal streets, presenting to old and young alike their nearest dream of fairyland. The Gentry Brothers Shows, which are the world’s pioneers in trained animal exhibitions, have been so enlarged that they now present the realistic taming'leopards of the jungle "and other ferocious beasts within canvas coliseums. A large portion of the youth of the community will welcome the trains on arrival, beaause this feature appeals to both old and young. Gentry Brothers Famous Shows will give two exhibitions in this city Thursday, Sept. 2. These displays will be upon a larger and grander scale than ever before in the three decades of Gentry Brothers career.

LOOK FOR ACTION ABOUT THURSDAY

Berlin Dispatches Indicate Germany Has Decided Upon a Policy in Case of Arabic. Washington, Adfc. 30:—Press dispatches from Berlin saying Germany had decided upon a policy in connec-,< tion with the sinking of Hie Arabic in » accord with recent statements of the imperial chancellor were noted with satisfaction today in official circles here. The chancellor said if it developed that a German submarine commander had gone beyond his instructions Germany would not hesitate to give complete satisfaction to the United States. Formal assurance to this effect was given the state department last week by Count von Bemsdorff, the German ambassador, on instructions from Berlin. The ambassador already had informed Secretary Lansing that German submarines had been ordered to torpedo no more peaceful merchantmen without warning.

Redeem Season Ticket Pledges.

All persons are asked to at once redeem their pledges for season tickets for the chautauqua. The solicitors are unable to sell all, especially those living in the country, and ask that those wJ?o made pledges during the visit of the chautauqua last year get their tickets at once. They are on sale at the following places: Fendig’s, Long's and Larsh & Hopkins’ drugstroes. Please obtain them without delay and thus lighten the burden of the com-* mittee that is devoting much time to he details of the visit of the chautauqua.

MONKEY BARBERS ARE COMING HERE

Simian Tonsorial Artists Among Many Features With Gentry Brothers Shows. The oply monkey barbers in the world are coming to this city next Thursday, Sept.- 2, when Gentry Brothers Famous Shows will give two performances here. These monkeys are trained to enact scenes common in a barber shop. The comical situations which develop as a result of monkey nature are indeed laughable. When the shop opens an “old gentleman” monkey, in all dignity, walks in. He takes his seat in a chair and tells the monkey barber he wants a shave. After placing the towel at his throat the barber decides he needs a hair cut. In the difference of opinion which follows the monkey barber gets angry. He fills the patron's mouth full of soap suds. Then he catches up an enormous pair of shears, and the damage he would do is checked only by the timely arrival of a,trainer. This monkey barber shop scene is a most amusing presentation of animal nature. It is, however, only one of scores of unique displays which Gentry Brothers Famous Shows offer this season.
