BRADSTREET'S report say that bicycles have reduced the price of every horse in the country $11.

IN Wyoming horses are selling from $3 00 to $4 00 a piece but when canned they bring about $30.00 or $35 00. The tauoing of horse meat is getting to be quite an industry.

C. A. PILLSBUKY, the big Minneapolis miller, believes tint wheat will go up, owing to the light crops of winter wheat ^nd low stocks of wheat and flour both at home and abroad. Farmer do not "9Faut to unload their wheat too rapidly.

SENATOR Oalvin S. Brice, of Ohio, has concluded t'r at he does not desire re-elec-tion. He thinks his private business needs attent -m. The people are sure of it and will e: -ily retire liim in favor of Joseph Benson Foraker, a Republican whose motto is "Vim, Vigor and ictory."

EVERY man except one who lia« expressed himself to the REPUBLICAN regard to a new Court bouse is favorable to it. A new Court House would do much for Hancock county and Greenfield. We are acquiring a splendid reputation throughout the State, and this additional improvement would show that our people are p'og^essive, enterprising and pushi' llie front in every possible way.

IN the Circuit Court at Crawfordsville, the widow and four minor children of Thomas Mikels, have brought suit against Squire S. Heath, an Alamo druggist, asking $5,000 damages on account of the defendant selling liquor to Mikels. The complaint alleges that Mikels was a good iiusband and provider when not drinking and the defendant knew this, but continued to sell to him unlawfully when warned not to do so, and in consequence of the Prisonous liquor, Mikels was taken sick jvid died August 6. A good sized judgment for the plaintiff in a few cases like the above would have a tendency to restrict, if it did not stop the unlawful sale of liquor.

THE bond syndicate that Cleveland and Carlisle hired to protect the government, has thrown up its job and is possibly getting ready to bleed the Treasury again. The syndicate on July 5th finished the gold payment for all the bonds hitherto purchased by it, and having no further interest to keep up the reserve, quit trying to do so. The government, left to depeud upon itself, began again to get in the hole, financially speaking. Gold is flowing abroad and the treasury deficit getting larger than ever every day. Since July 1st it has aggregated $15,934,904 !3S, which is at the rate of over $120,000,000 a year. Grover will fish and the Secretaries of the various departments go junketing, no matter if the finances of the government go all to pieces.

A LETTER FROM TENS ESSE,

Descriptive of their Crops «nd County

a Former Citizen.

FRAXKLIN, TENN Aug. 9, 1895. MR. EDITOR: Dear Sii—Please find enclosed $1 for the paper, as we cautiot do without it It brings us the news from our old home. With all rav devotion for my old home and friends, we like the South best. This surely is a great country where we live. As mauy of the old soldiers remember Franklin lies in a rich valley on the banks of the Harper river. There are many thousand acies Hround Franklin as rich and productive as any land on Bluerivtr. We have the advantage of two cr.jps per year of almost every kind ot' grain. You can raise two crops of potatoes, or you can raise one crop of potatoes and jilow with a crop of corn with good results, and follow with wheat after either. You can cut your clover hay crop aud put it in corn, potatoes or millet, or the same with an an oats crop. So you see we have the advantage over the North.

The wheat crop was very fine hera this year, and there is as good a prospect tor corn as I ever saw, which will soon be matured. Potato raislna is a very proti tttijle business here. Many thousand acres are planted potatoes in this country and shipped to northern markets. Fruits of every kind are grown in abundance. The peach crop this year was very large. Water 'melons are shipped by the car load.

We have splendid schools aud good churches all through this-, country. The people of this country are hospitable aud intelligent as cau be found any where. This is a sufficient guarantee that any man of industry aud intelligence may do well here. No man need be deterred from coming to Tennessee for fear of illtreatment on account of his religious or political opinions. He can speak his seutiments when and where he chooses. Welcome is extended to the immigrant from whatever locality he may come. There are quite a number of Indiana and Ohio people here in this section, all satisfied, doing well and making money. I consider this a very healthful country. I came here in poor health, and have not paid one dollar doctor bill since I came. We would be glad to see the editor of the REPUBLICAN or any of our old Hancock county friends at any time.

Yours respectfully, JOHN H. MYERS,

On the mrrning of July 27, 1895, death came to visit the home of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Bell, in the guise of that dreadful disease, cholera infantum, and called for little Goldie, who came to their home March 15, 1895, having lived in this life the brief time of four months and twelve days. This little bud of iunocence wes plucked from earth to bloDm in the pure atmosphere of G'od's eternal love, where llowers never fade or wither.

When we see a precious blossom ltudely taken from our care, Keeling .ill our hopes have vanished—

How our aching hearts despair!

Yet we should remember— We shali sleep, but-not. forever. There will be a glorious davrn:

This merited distinction means that every requirement for comfortable and delightful traveliug is provided on these lines.

NOT since "The Anulomaniac-" has there been so clever a society satire as Heury Fuller's "Pilgrim ?ons," which is published in the Ausju-t CosMOPOLiTan. The problems involved in women's use of the bicycle are so startling and so numerous, under the rtpid evoution of this art, that one welcomes a careful discussion of the subject by so trained a mind and so clever a writer as Mrs. Reginald de Koven. TheCosMOPOUTANillusirat.es Mrs. de Koven's article with a series of poses by professional models. A new sport, more thrilling than any known to Nimrod more dangerous than was ever experience I by even Buffalo Bill, is exploited inthe same issue in an article on "Photographing Big Gauwi-n the Rocky Mountains," before shoeing. The idea that ten cents for THE OSMOPOLITAN means inferiority from a literary point of view is dispelled by the appearance in this number of -such writers as Sir Lewis Morris, Sir Edwin Arnold, Edgar Fawcett, Tabb, W. Clark Russell, Agnes Repplier, etc Nor can we entertain the ide of inferiority in illus'-rafio-i with such iames as Hamilton Gibron, Denman, Van Schaick, Lix, Sandh'im, etc., figuring tis thecuier artists of a sin^al month's issue.

Up in the top story of The building, where the typesetiog and other machines do everthingbut talk, says Boston Globe, there is a pleasant-faced, clear skinned light complexioned man of 52, who has been with The Globe ever since the birthday of that great paper. He is the night foreman of the composing room, and looks fully 15 years younger than he realy is His name is Mr. Charles Rolfe.

Nervous headaches that well might drove him to distraction first introduced him to Painescelery compound. That was five years ago. and until that time he was one of the most pronounced opponents of prepared remedies to be found in the city.

Just how Paine's celery compound was first brought to his attention he does not remember, but it has done him so much good that the compound has no more enthusiastic champion living. He is as happy as any one in the enjoyment of good health could be, and for that happiness he gives full credit to Paint's celery compound. Re id what he had to say about the mediciues: '•I am alwuys ready to reccommend Prtine's celery compouud when I hear of a case similar to my own. Some five vetirs ago I was suffering from headaches which were sometimes so severe during working hours of the night that I would clasp my hands over my head to 'hold the top on,' the pain being excruciating. The-e attacks would occur sometimes as otteu as three times a week.

The other members of my family also begau to take it—my wife for a feeling of general weakness, she being at that time much 'run down' and never feeling well enough to perform the work of the home. Within a week site was, as she expressed it, 'as well as ever in her life,' and similar reports Came from all our friends to whom we had recommended it. "I feel confident that in nervous headaches and a run down, system the compound will be benefical every time, if not a perfect cure.
