Lew Dickinson and Miss Mollie Gordon Married.

For some time it has been rumored in glass worts circles that a wedding would soon take place unknown to the parents of the contracting parties and sure enough it came to pass.

Ou Tuesday, Aiiss Mollie, the sixteen year-old daughter of the well-known lumber dealer, Sam Gordon, want to Indianapolis os-tensibly to buy a few Christmas presents for her friends. But when peoplejiu thejwest end saw Lew Dickiufon driving west they at once inquired what was up and when the evening papers arrived saw the marriage license issued to him and Miss Gordon, which dispelled all previous anxiety.

It is said that Mr. Gordon telegraphed the authorities at Indianapolis to stop the marriage but the word was received too late as the parties were already married. The contracting parties returned last night and are stepping at the home of the groom's parents on North street.

FORTVlLiLK.

There being no items ftom this place f(or some time you must not form the idea that our town is sleeping far from it. The fact is, business is so pressing that it is difficult to take sufficient time to give you an accurate report of the enterprise of our little city. Our energetic business men are right up to the times with a magnificent display of holiday goods. They are enjoying fine trade, and they deserve it since they have made this splendid effort to accommodate the people. Right here we wish to speak in the highest terms of praise for our business men. It is a pleasure to trade with such men. Visit them and you will be convinced, both as to courtesy and prices. Our lodges, K, of P.., F. & A. M., I. O. O. F. and Red Mem are in flourishing condition. Our ministers are men of ability. Our schools are certainly second to none in the county. The attendance and enrollment are the best in the his tory of the school. Our students are determined, not to be out done. Our teachers are all workers of successful experience. Harmony prevails throughout the schools among the teachers and pupils, and the parents are uniting in their cooperation with the teachers. This means success. New nembers are coming in every week. Factories area valuable addition to any town, but we think a good school will do more to make a good and enterprising community, than the best factory that can be secured. We do i't understand why so many newspapers are constantly lauding various enterprises, yet perfectly silent in regard to the schools, be they er„er so good.

Our factories are crowded to their fullest capacity with work. A great many carloads of material come to our place and the manufactured products sent out every week. They are constantly enlaiging their plants, only to find a demand for greater capacity. Our grain merchants, Hagan & Shultz are amply prepared to handle the farmer's grain and to give them the very best prices. Our roller mills are turning out a fine grade of fiour and are giving splecdid satisfaction. The most of our laboring men find employment, and loafers are not very numerous, except those who follow,the proression from choice. A few of our people, also like those of many other towns spend their money for that which is not bread, but they too do this from choice, and are compelled to reap the harvest. How we wish they might be able to sit down and carefully count the cost and the income from this choice. Would that there were a little more sunshine in each and every home.

Wisehart & Schaeffer have moved into their magnificent room on site of the late fire. They have one of the finest rooms in the State. They sold over 00 ponnds of candy last Thursday evening,

W. R. Rash has enlarged his business room by an extension to the alley on the west and is doing a splendid business.

Mrs. Lamb and Chas. Lamb are completing residences in South Fortville. Mr. Thurber has erected a fine barn in the south part of town.

John Merrill is preparing to erect a fine brick dwelling in the southeastern limits.

Our churches are preparing interesting Christmas programs. Parents how much effort are you making to have your ohild enjoy these occasions.

Our High school gave an entertainment on ^Saturday night in the school hall. Total receipts $22.75. Our students believe they have some true friends in Fortville. We are certain they have a few friends who could not be present.

Burglars entered the residences of Frank McCarty, Prof. Pogue and Will Bills on Thursday night taking some money from each. They left Mr. Mccarty's clothes in the yard to take the rain. Asy the were leaving Mr. Bills' the large watch dog seized one of them who shot the noble animal inflicting a fatal wond. This aroased the family who endeavored to locate the burglars but they escaped. The burglars are evidently residents of the community, as watches, bank checks etc., were untouched although in plain view. Why was our blood houna not given a chance to try its skill?

Our hunters have returned and our own R. J. Sample was so "fortunite as to bring down^two fine deer with his trusty Winchester. The party killed six in all but Mr. Sample'got the first one and the largest number. He looks much younger since his return and constantly wears a smile. It is reported that a small herd of deer ran Carter Brokaw out of the woods and his yells could be heard for, well, we don't know how far. Henry Boucher can explain the matter to you. Turkeys, squirrels, etc., were abundant. A grand time was repo.ted.

The institute at Ingalls last Saturday a week ago was a very successful affair. Green and Vernon townships this county met with Green and Fallcreek townships, of Madison county in joint session about flfly-six teachers being present. Supt. G. S. Wilson, of Greenfield, and County Supt. Jackson were present. The above townships will all 'meet at Eden on the second Saturday of February.

Arthur Wolfgang, Alva Apple, Melviu Beagle, John Hervey and Mollie Apple, representative young'people from McCordsville attended our entertainment.

Mr. Trittipo is leaving no stone unturned in his efforts to make his schools a success. Having been a school man himself he knows the needs of the school room.

Easily Accommodated.

An Irish actor well known in the provinces arrived on one occasion at a rather out of the way town. The manager, when he reached the theater, ap proached him with apparent anxiety and asked the "star" how many supers he would require for the play he had brought. "Begorra," responded be, "not many, excipt in one scene, one great sen sat ion scene, where the murdther is committed—in the Gyap, d'ye moind? There want twelve supers to march across tho ravine from right, tin more to defile down the mountain path, left twinty Faynians to emerge as 'twere from the Gyap or the bowls av the earth and seventeen peasantry to dash on from the village." "Stop, stop!" exclaimed the manager. "We have in this theater only three supers!" "What," cried the "star," "only three, d'ye say? Ah, well, thin, never mind Sure, I'll make tliiru do!"—London Tit-Bits.

A Greater Scheme.

"We mean to try a penny social at the church next time,"said Mrs. Watts. "And what's that?" asked Mr. Watts. "Every woman gives a penny for every year of her age.'' "Better make it a penny for every year she is under 70. Then the contributions will be long instead of shore." —Indianapolis Journal.
