IT now looks like both Maryland and Kentucky would go Republican this year.

TIIE city of Logansport owns and operates her own electric light plant. In the last six mouths the profit from commercial and resident lighting has been sufficient to pay the cost of street lighting, so that the latter practically costs nothing. If this continues the city will own its own plant within six years. Light foxresidences is furnished at just about the cost of coal oil. Municipal ownership is the proper thing.

THERE area number of men around here who are habitual drunkards and others who commit petty offenses that are frequently sentenced to jail. They care but little for this as they lay around the jail escape work and are fed at the taxpayers expense. Several cities have adopted plans whereby they use prisoners at various kinds of work which makes a sentence in every way less desirable to the prisoners. Such being the case it has a tendency to make them obey the laws and become better citizens. Let Greenfield adopt some measures of this kind.

The Order of the Ladies of the Maccabees ot the AVorld.

This order first originated iu Michigan with territory limited to that State. It wes later started in New York and Ohio, where great camps of the Sir Knights of the Maccabees had been formed. Life protection is said to be one of the highest states of civilization aud until these last few years woinau was not admitted in any company as a risk.

Now comes to our rescue this glorious order of the Lidie* of the Maccabees barriers are broken down and woman is now protected on an equal footing with man.

The order of the Ladies of the Maccabees of the world, is the only one in exstence giving life benefits to. woman and was the first to give her protection on the co-operative plan and as such we are represented at the National Fraternal Congress and the National Council of *oman.

I can safely say with thousands of others throughout this great and glorious land of ours, that its remarkable growth and wonderful popularity shows that we needed just such an organization to perfect woman.

II is a secret order fraternal in all its dealings, giving life protection to woman and benefits all ladies who join us between the age of 16 and 70 years. Its teaching are christian charitable in precepts and educational in all its work, and is accomplish! nz an untold amount of good among its members.

It is managed and controled entirely

by ladies. We have a sick fund for the relief of the sick and distressed. A life benefit to care for, and bury our ^beloved dead. «if

And last but not least a disability benefit and also old age. All those who should become totally disabled or live to seventy years, can draw one-tenth annually of their beneficiar, as long as they live.

It would take more paper than can be found in Indiana, or if the sea were ink it would use it all to tell the stories of joy peace and happiness that has been wrought by this grand and glorious order of woman. A Hive is to be organized in Greenfield. Saturday night a meeting is to be held in the Odd Fellows Hall to perfect arrangements. See announcement elsewhere.

THE COUNCILS SPECIAL MEETING.

The Setver Ordinance Adopted, and Cement Sidewalks Ordered on South State Street—A Hot Old Time.

Last night the Council met in special session to consider the sewer question, and a few other important matters. All members were present.

The sewer question was taken up, and as the Council had gone over the matter thoroughly before hand, no speeches were made, but the business put through promptly. A resolution was passed amending the plans, specifications and profile as prepared by the engineers, Philips and Goss. The grade was lowered iu a number of places so that cellars might be drained.

The main outlet was changed go as to let it run under the railroad with the Potts ditch instead of through the fill, this will save about §200. In another column we publish a legal notice which gives the course of the sewer from where it begins up through the "Main Fall" and the various branches so far as ordered constructed. Read it for full information as to where the sewer goes. A resolution was passed declaring the necessity for the construction of the sewer describing the course and the outlet and providing for raising the cost of said constiuction. It took an hour to read the ordinance through twice as was necessary before it could be passed. The sewer is to be made under the Barrett law which gives ten years in which to pay for it, bonds being issued bearing six per cent interest payable semi-annuary. The property of the entire city which will be drained by the sewer is assessable to pay for the same.

The question of putting sidewalks on South State street came up and there was where the hot old time came in. All the councilmen made speeches, and Judge D. S. Gooding spoke in an earnest and forcible manner. He was very much opposed to the Council's idea of improvement, and especially so on South State street. After he had fully covered the territory, Mayor Duncan rr.ppe-i for order, and continued rap ing, but the Judge continued speaking until the Major finally instructed the City Marshal to secure order, aud the Judge took his seat. A remonstrance was presented signed by a majority of the property owners, but a majority of the Couucil deemed it expedient that the improvement be made this fall, and it was so ordered. Messrs. Banker and Vaughn favored a cement walk and Moulden and Eagan a brick, but as many of the propeity owners, if they had to put in a walk, preferred cement, it was so ordered, and there will be a 6 foot cement walk on each side of South State street, from South street to the end of the street at the creamery. Messrs. Beecher and Morford voted against the improvement, piefering to wait until next year.

When the Air Lift Pump question came up the Council instructed City Attorney E. J. J3iuford to write to the agent of the company, J. N. Chester, at Indianapolis, that the company had failed to come up to the contract, and that the city would not take the pumps.

Bills amounting to §G were allowed. Mayor Duncan, in the course of the evening, delivered a lecture to that part of the press which irequently had in ar tides not founded on facts. It prejudiced and induced people to make up their minds from false premises. He was eminently correct. Papers as well as men should always tell the truth and do no guess work.

Council adjourned.

James IVliiteoinl) Kiley on a JJIcycle.

For years Mr. Riley was unable to gain the consent of his mind to ride a wheel aud his answer to the importunities of cycling friends who wanted him to ride was, "No my gentle friends a thousand times no He was unable to withstand the temptation however, and at last has learned to ride and is now able to navigate a crowded street with but little danger to himself or friends. He has moreover made his peace with all his friends whom he told he would not learn to ride. The following poem gives his feelings on learning to ride.

RILEY ON A WHEEL.

I allers did like r'din' When I lired down on the farm. I thought I needed exercise,

An' it wouldn't do no harm—

So I went an'bought a bicycle All new an' clean an' bright. I tuk it home an'sez'sez I,

I'll exercise to-niglit.

I've rid the horses an' tli' mules, An' rid the ol' cows too Bwt I jes couldn't stick on that'er thing

No matter what I'd do.

I got ap'liccman an' 'nother man, To hold 1 lie blamed thing down But every time they'd let go their holt,

I'd be sprawlin' on the groun'.

The doctor's bill was 'mazen big My friends sed I was lookeu pale, I don't, think I'll take no more exercise

An' that'er blamed thing's for sale.

The A niericaii I'eoyle

Appear 1o be wakiug up to the fact that the Yellow Stone Park is something we ought to be proud of. The travel to the park this year is heavier than ever. Germany, England, France and other foreign countries annually send large numbers of travelers to see that famed region. It least the United States itself seems to want to "be in the swim." Drop your business for a fortnight postpone that other vacation scheme and go and glory in the glories of npture. For six cents I will send you a beautiful book that describes the park.

FOREMAN1 CHAS. ROt

Superintendent of one of the Big^ Composing Rooms in America.

Up in the top story of The building, where the typeseting and other machines do everthing but talk, says Boston Globe,

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 lo 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 Paines celery 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 Paiue's celery compound. Read what he had to say about the medicines: "I ,im always ready to

Paiue's celery compound when I hear of a case similar to my own. Some live years ago I was suilering from headaches which were sometimes so severe during working hours of the niglit that I would clasp my hands over my head to 'hold the top on,' the pain beiug excruciating. These attacks would occur sometimes as I often as three times a week. Sleep wras I out of the question, the pillow seeming but a block of wood '•Just at the time I was suffering most I bought a bottle of Paiue's celery compound, began at once to take it, and before a week had passed the headaches begau to disappear. I felt almost a new man before the bottle was emty. I purchased more, and for two years kept it in the

she being

at that time much 'run down' aud never feeling well enough to perform the work of the home. Within a week she 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. p| "I feel confident that in nervous head-'* aches and a run down, system the compound will be benefical every time, if not a perfect cure. "In some instances we have net only recommended it, but furnished it to very aged friends, aud the effect of oae bottle has seemed marvelous, and particular., old friends of miue telling me that before one bottle had been used he 'felt at least teu years younger, and certainly had not felt as good for 111 years. & 'Daring the last five y^ars I have used a great many bottles or the compound —that is, iu my home.

We had a young married lady friend, who was nursing her 4. month old child, and:, found that she could not perform ter household duties on account of the weak conditions she seemed always to be in. On the recommendation of my w:fe aud myself she took one bottle of the compound, and before two weeks had passed was able to do her own washing even, in addition to horsework. About three bottles were used. I have yet to hear from any friend to when I recommended it other than the most favorable results.
