A MAGNIFICENT REPAST

SPUEAl) BY THK PCPll«S OF ROOM 4 AT MCCOICDSVILLE SATURDAY.

Prof. Jay is Completely and Pleasantly Surprised My tlie Klegant Dinner Prepared for the Institute By

The Good Ladies Ot McCordsville.

Saturday April 6th 1895 will loDg be remembered by the teachers of Vernon township especially by Prof. Jay of the McCordsville schools. To show the appreciation of his services (and knowiug that his labors with them will soon cease) the pupils of Mr. Jay's room secretly planned a surprise on him in the form of a magnificent dinner of good things. When we say "good things," we mean nnv and everything that could be thought of in the pastry line. We wish to say that the good ladios of McCordsville know how to get up a good dinner if any oue does. When the noon hour arrived Miss Tillie Craig made her appearance in the institute room announcing that the teachers should form in line and proceed to the lower room where the feast was in waiting for them. It was a complete surprise to mo?t of the teachers and an overwhelming surprise to Mr. Jay. Mr. Quitman Jackson of Greenfield, was let into the secret and of course was present. It seems that Mr. Jackson can scent the good dinner prepared for the institutes of Vernon Township for he is always present, and to say he does justice to them wouldn't half tell it. Some fears we entertained for Mr. Jackson's and Mr. Sample's physical health to see with what zeal and energy they helped thein selves to the good things but Dr. J. D. Cory soon appeared on the scene when all fears vanished like "The Winters' Sun before the Summer's Sun." What higher eulogy could be manifested in honor of Prof. Jay than the above. Prejudice pales into insignificance before the welcome rays of esteem and good will manifested in the above event. When Mr. Jay's labors cease at McCordsville the people will find that his place will be hard to fill. The Trustees of Fortville will find that they have made no mistake in selecting him for our schools here. Long may his light shine to light the American youth to a higher plane of usefulness, is the sincere wish of the editor.—Fortville Sun. [The editor of the REPUBLICAN very heartily concurs it the above.]

CUBAN PEACEMAKER

General Martinez Campos IsSo Looked Upon.

HE IS NOW EN ROUTE TO CUBA.

Royalists ill Havana Anxiously Awaiting His Arrival—Marti and Maximo Gomez Already in Cuba—Official Report of a Recent Rattle—Insurgents Defeated by the

Spanish Troops—Latest From Cuba. HAVANA, April 16.—General Martinez Campos, who arrived at Porto Rica on Thursday last, sailed at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon for Guantamamo,Cuba. The general met with an enthusiastic reception at Porto Rica and was acclaimed by an immense crowd of people as the peacemaker.

He was accompanied by reinforcements of troops on board the steamer Reina Christina, who were most liberally treated by the merchants of Porto Rica. Previous to this departure the general had an official reception. The hopes of the loyalists of the whole Island of Cuba are centered on the arrival here of the Spanish general, who once before pacified the island after a long rebellion.

Private advices received here say that the detachment of rebels recently commanded by Pauchin Varona, who, as announced in these dispatches on April 9 was killed in an engagement with the Spanish troops under Lieutenant Padilla, had with it 11 wounded men, of which number some have already died.

In spite of the alarmist statements sent out from Havana regarding the spread of yellow fever here it is stated that there is only oue soldier suffering from that disease in the hospital.

A dispatch received from Gibara announces that a detachment of troops, commanded by Captain Aguilar, lias defeated a body of 150 insurgents under Miro at Palma. Six of the insurgents were killed and several wounded.

Official Telegrams From Havana. TAMPA, Fla., April 16.—An official telegram fi*om Havana to the Spanish vice consul here, announces the battle at Palerito, at which General Flor Crombert and a Cuban colonel were killed, and two commanders, Maceo's secretary and one lieutenant were captured. Estrada, another Cuban chief, surrendered himself.

Information has arrived that Marti and Maximo Gomez have been in Cuba eight days. They landed on the northern coast in the Bay of Nipe, province of Holquin. It has been purposely kept quiet to be announced simultaneously with the arrival of General Martinez Campos, who landed at Guantanamo Saturday, s-

Officially Received at Washington. WASHINGTON. April 16.—Official telegraphic reports from the captain general of Cuba, received here, state that-.the Spanish troops have cut to pieces the insurgent band led by General Maceo and General Crombet. Eleven were killed, wounded or taken prisoners, Crombet was among the killed. General Maceo was among the remnant of the band who escaped, but the report says they are closely pursued in the woods with the expectation that they will be overtaken.

Another Cuban Club Found. PHILADELPHIA, April 16.—A number of the University of Pennsylvania have taken up the cause of Cuba and a club of 27 members has been formed, the name of which will be "Young American Friends of Cuba." This makes the seventh Cuban club now in this city, and the second composed of Americans.

CONNECTICUT RIVER OVERFLOWED.

Considerable Damage Already Done and -DIore Threatened. SPRINGFIELD, Mass., April 16.—The

Connecticut valley has been the scene of a flood of greater magnitude than has visited this section since 1862. The most damage wras done at Bellows Falls, Vt., where the Connecticut river is very narrow. An old railroad bridge was swept away yesterday afternoon and there has been great danger of the Boston and Maine tunnel being flooded and rendered impassable. The mills are all closed down.

At Brattleboro, Vt., the river is higher than it has been since 1862. At Turner's Falls the water has overflowed the banks of the river to sucn an extent that many of the mills have been compelled to shut down. The consolidated railroad tracks are flooded.

At Windsor, Vt., the water has risen 80 feet and business is almost entirely suspended.

At Northampton, Mass., the river is three-fourths of a mile wide, and the water is higher than it has been in 30 years.

Over nine feet of water is going over the dam at Holyoke, and many mills have been compelled to shut down because of the floods.

Near Mount Tom the water has overflowed the railroad tracks and trains are delayed.

The city lias not as yet been troubled by the high waters because of the high bank on this side, but across the river West Springfield is flooded. An old wooden bridge from Springfield to West Springfield is threatened. The water has already risen 18 feet and is nearly up to the woodwork.

Nitroglycerin in a Plug of Tobacco.

PALMYRA, JMo., April 16.—Sheriff Piatt received through the mail a plug of tobacco addressed to one of his prisoners named Joe Marvin. He cut open the plug and found concealed on the inside a two-dram vial of nitroglycerin. Sheriff Piatt went to Carrollton, where he arrested Fred Staples* John Newman and J. D. Young, alias Williams, charged with mailing the nitroglycerin.

Monarch Whisky on tlie Slope.

Los ANGELES, April 16.—It is stated fc-e on good authority that Stein Brothers, the proprietors of, the Monarch Distilling company of Chicago and Qwgpsboro, Ky., are making arrangements to put a million-dollar plant in this city. President Stein is now in this city and lias purchased property here which is said to be intended as ground for the plant.
