B. Simmons, of Wilkinson, was in the city today on business. E M. Campbell, of Anderson, is here looking after business today.

Nettie Albridge, of Indianapolis, is in the city on a visit to friends. John Riley Smith was torlay 1*ppointed Justicejjof the Peace for Vernon Tp.

It seems that all of our merchants are spreading themselves on holiday goods. The riot that was 'supposed to be in Oklahoma yesterday, proved to be a myth.

W. S Gant went to Columbus, Ohio, this morning to replenish his stock of buggies.

Boys club skates worth 50c. for 27 cts. Girls skates with ankle braces at 65 cents gt Spot Cash.

For rent, five rooms, centrally located, with bath, to small family. Euquire at this office. 301tf.

It is said that 'Squire Jim Wilson took a ride in the Republican patrol wagon the other night.

Orchestra, pipe organ, Chime bells and Marine music Friday evening, at Christiau church.

H. Conow&y, of Carthage, is here looking for a couple of horses which were stolen last night.

You will have an opportunity Friday evening to hear a machine talk at the Christian Church.

Just

think of a machine talking so

everybody cau hear and understand—at Christian church Friday night. Livery stables will probably put in bicycles to rent next year, as the wheel lr made it hard on their other business.

Those young people securing marriage 1, cense this week said they were going to buy their furniture at Lee C. Thayer's

All kind of butcher knives very cheap. In this lot is a steel bladed knife with fine bone handle for 10c. at Spot Cash.

Our old friend John Miller writes from San Francisco, Cal., that he is in good health and always glad to get the REPUBLICAN.

Bob Fair of this city, and Andy Denk, of New Palestine, were granted retail liquor license by the Board of commissieners today.

Daniel Lineback, of Blue River township, was not indicted for carrying concealed weapons as we stated last week. It was for provoke and assault.

We take this means of announcing that we will have an immense line of choice candy for Christmas trade in our grocery department, which you kn^ow we always sell cheap. LEE C. TIIAYER.

In all probabilities J. H. Cline will, at an early date, open up a grocery store in the Gooding block on South State street. Mr. Cline is an old and experienced groceryman, and will no doubt meet with the success he so justly deserves.

George Hoppes, the butcher, not only runs his wagon every day, but has a fine line of meats in. his shop in the Randall block that is a credit to the city. Step in and see George when you want anything in his line. 9tlw

Misses Borgia Barnard and Mamie Moore went to Indianapolis this afternoon to attend a party this evening given by Miss Anna Ebert on North Pennsylvania street. They will remain over Sunday as guests of Miss Eb#rt.

Persons who prefer the old plan of taking papers and magazines through the postoffice, at regular subscription rates to buying them at news-stands, leave your order with money at the Book store. It will save you the trouble and expense of writing.

The Ladies' Lookout Society of the M. P. church will meet tomorrow afternoon at Bro. Martin's to hold their regular monthly business meeting. All members are requested to be present, as they have business of importance.

BY ORDER OF PRESIDENT.

There.was quite a stir in saloon circles in Greenfield yesterday, whereby a Mr. Kennedy, of Gas City, became business manager of the St. Elmo, and J. V. Mitchell took charge of the Holland. Both are experienced men in the liquor business and will no aoubt, meet with success.

LOST—Between Walnut street and the corner of Main and Penn. streets, or between the corner of Main and Penn. and the court house, a small purse containing a five dollar bill, about a dollar in change and two bills for the order of the Eastern Star. Return to the County Treasurer's office and receive reward. 9t2

Judge DavidS. Gooding spoke at the court house last night on the "Money Question" and had a splendid audience, as the house was chock full, many being in from the country. It was a very much larger audience than W. D. Bynum had in the same place on the same subject recently, and the speech was much better received, as jit was frequently applauded. Mr. Gooding will speak again on the same subject at thfe court house Friday night, Dec. 13. The Judge is a missionary for free silver, and works without money and without price.

§HHM

We are getting ready for

our Holiday Goods, which

will arrive this week, and

then we will show you one

of the most handsome lines

ever brought to Greenfield.

Do 'Not

"Gttin a hurry about buying

but wait until vou see our

display, and we are satis

fied that we can please you.

Yours forthe Holiday trade.

M. C. QU1GLEY,

MODEL DRUG STORE

Opposite Court House.

M. C. Quigley, the Model drug store, has a very neat ad in the REPUBLICAN, announcing the arrival of hi3 holiday goods. Mike always has a large stock, and sells it at way down prices.

The reports from the gas towns over the State during the present cold snap show that the majority of them area little short on gas. We believe that Greenfield is in the best shape of any city in the State so far as an abundant supply of gas is concerned. We have two A No. 1 companies—the Greenfield and the Citizens—and both have an abundant supply of gas. The Greenfield company, at its meeting Monday night, declared a 4 per cent, dividend.

Tom Onstott, under sentence to five years in the prison south, for stealing cattle, made an unsuccessful attempt at jail delivery at noon today. He had several bolts screwed off, and would, no doubt, made his escape tonight had not Sheriff Pauley heard him at work and slipped in in time to catch him in the act. He locked him in a cell to await his delivery to the prison- Onstott, according to rumors, is a bad "pill" and has been there before.

Officer Wilson, of Indianapolis, was in the city yesterday looking after a horse, buggy and harness, which he found at the livery barn of Jeffries & Son. It seems that Jake Reed, a brick mason had given a mortgage on the above property to Indianapolis parties, and then brought it to this city. The officer took the buggy and harness back with him, but when they found a feed bill against the old "skate" that has been at the Jeffries barn, he concluded that the bill was worth more than the horse and went home without it.

City Council.

There'was no business of importance transacted at the Council last night, save the allowance of quite a number of bil]s.

An ordinance was read governing peddlers, which will be acted on at the next meeting.

A standing committee on sewers was appointed by Mayor Duncan, consisting of Moulden, Vaughn and Morford.

Dudding and Johnson, merchant policemen, were ordered to look after the city building at nights.

The Council ruled that hereafter no claims would be considered if not presented on Tuesday before the meeting on Wednesday, until the next meeting thereof.

A SURE GO.

Another New Hotel I'o Be Built Here in the Spring.

George B. Cooper, owner of the Guymon House, in connection with a number of capitalists, now have specifications for a new hotel to be built on the site of tl old one, and as sown as the plans are accepted, advertisements will be made for bids to build a fine four-story brick building with stone front. Mr. Cooper states that the hotel will be built and that it will be the finest building in the city.

WILL BE JUST IT.

George W. I'nlkner, or Hagerstown, Wants To Locate] Here. Eld. R. W. Thompson received a letter today from George W. Fulkner, of Hagerstown, asking for information regarding the locating of a bicycle factory in our city. Mr. Fulkner is an experienced man in the business, and is hunting a location where they have gas, in order that he may increase his facilities two fold. We trust that the Board of Trade will take hold of the matter and give him all the assistaace required. s, t"-? V/-

Hon. Wm. H.

NORTHWEST/" He If a .millionaire^ and It is therefore unreasonable to suppose that his work along historical line* was animated by any spirit of selflshnes# or sordidness. Ne other man Is so Wtell equipped for the teak he self-imposed* He has .been a conspicuous figure in Indiana almost continuously sinoe it waa admitted to Statehood'. He was secretary of the Constitutional Convention, and hf»_ personality is strongly marked In the organic law as well as In much of subsequent legislation. His great wealth has afforded him opportunities for devoting his entire attention to literary labor. Hi* intimacy with public men and State an® Federal officials, has given him exceptional facilities for gaining access to documents necessary to insure thoroughness and exactness in the preparation of hiaf history. After jseveral years of ardent devotion and labor, undertaken in a spirit of State pride and for pure love of it, the publication of "THE CONQUEST OF THE NORTHWEST" will cause him. to be kindly remembered as an Indianiatt whose motives have been often misconstrued, and whose real worth as a man and citizen has been often ignored byf unreasonable political bias and human nftj ture's Inherent prejudice against men Of immense wealth.—Lafayette Courier.
