Three Graud Toii8 to Honolulu. Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, about which so much has beeu wr.teen,/has been aptly termed the "Paradise of the Pacific," and the title is well deserved, for aside from its magnificent scenery its wonderful volcano, Kilaua, and its interesting inhabitants, its climate is unrivaled, and offers a most delightful change to the residence of the eastern and middle states who desire to escape the rigors of a northern winter. "N^
The attractions and advantages of these beautiful islands are brought within easy reach by the series of excursions which have been inaugurated by the North Western Line, which leaves Chicago at 6 p. m., January 15, February 10 and March 5, reaching San Francisco on the evening of the third day after departure from Chicago. Steamers of the Oceanic S. S. Company leave San Francisco January 21, February 15 and March 1(), and it will be observed, therefore, that those who join these excursions will be afforded ample time to view the many attractions of the principal city of the Pacific coast and its beautiful surroundings.
Excursion tickets, good for nine months will be sold at rate of $225 for the round trip from Chicago to Honolulu and return and this price includes sf ita room and meals on steamers in both directions.
The entire trip from Chicaga to Honolulu is made in only nine days, and these excursions, which are strictly first class in all respects, offer an exceptionally favorable opportunity for visiting these beautiful islands at very reasonable expense.
Detailed information will be furnished upon application to W. B. Kniskern, General Passenger and Ticket Agent Chicago j/ sy North Western R'y, Chicago.

E T. Carson, of Fail-land, Auditor of Shelby county, was here on business with Auditor Boring today. He laughiugly remarked that he came over to get a divide with Auditor Boring on fees as his had only amounted to|38last quarter but when Mr. Boring informed him that his fee* only ran to $7 he did not insist on the divide. The decision on the new law which holds the Auditors dowu ..to the fees shows that the law will have to be changed as the fees of the Auditors and Treasurers offices amount to very small sums. Mr. Carsbn is quite a pleasant gentleman and was in school at Greencastle with Will A. Hough and Major E. P. Thayer, of this city.
RILEY AT HIS OLD HOMfeA
A MAGNIFICESX AUDIENCE ANJL» A D£r,lGIITFUIi ENTERTAINMENT AT THE OPERA HOUSE.
Met by the "Old Baud" at the Depot—A Grand Ovation to Greenfield's Honored Son Who is Greeted by the Finest Audience Ever ia the Opera Honse,
4
When the 4:45 train arrived Tuesday eve a large concourse of citizens were at the depot to welcome James Whitcomb Riley to his old home. The "Old Band," under the leadership of Prof. J. E, Mack was there and they played the old familiar pieces, "Lilly Dale,,' "The Camels Is a Comin," and the other tunes mentioned by Mr. Riley in his familiar poem, "The Old Band." The cab was there in wuiting and Mr. Riley was escorted to it by Mayor Duncan, Judge C. G. Oft'utt, J. Ward Walker, Charles Downing, A. C. Pilkeuton and Will A. Hough and taken to the Hon. W. R. Houghs' where he was entertained during his stay. Mr. Riley and his sister, Mrs. Henry Eitle, of Indianapolis, were guests with a number of friends at a handsome dinner given in their honor by Mr. aud Mrs. H. B. Thaver, at their elegant home, corner of Main and Pennsylvania street
THE ENTERTAINMENT.
James Whitcomb Riley for the first time, since he has acquired a National, in fact a world wide reputation, appeared before a Greenfield audience that night at tue Opera House. Ic was the finest and most representative audience ever in the Ha I. People who desired admittance were turned away from the doors for an hour be'ore the entertainment began. Riley has read before larger audiences, but noue that greeted hiir. with kindlier feelings or a heartier welcome than his old friends and admirers here in Greenfield. Mr. Riley was introduced by Will A. Hough in a happy manner who spoke of him as "a poet whom the whole world loved Mr. Riley paid a loving and affectionate tribute to his old friend and schoolmaster, Lee. O. Harris, a man whom he delights to honor. Mr. Riley give ten selections altogether as he gave several each time he appeared. The selections given were: "The Old Band," "Out to Old Aunt Mary's," "The Soldiers Story," "Old Sweetheart of Mine," "Good-bye Jim," "The Professor," "The Quarrel" and several child sketches.
Lee O. Harris gave two selections, "John and 1" and "The Rose Tree" which were well received. Capt. Harris also has a warm place in the hearts of our people who esteem and hosor him. John Mitchell Jr. sang a comic song, Mr. a s. Will H. Glascock, Mrs. Will Huston and Samuel Millikan, rendered a fine quartette, and Prof. Mack gave a violin solo. The orchestra under the leadership of Prof. Mack also contributed largely to the pleasure of the entertainment. Much could be added as to the pleasure and delight of the audience in hearing Mr. Riley and of his pleasure at appealing before his old friends, but all appreciate how great it was. He came here free of charge and donated his services for the benefit of the Presbyterian church, and the ladies realized the large sum of $366 from the performance, which would have been greater had the hall been larger. They are to be congratulated on bringing Mr. Riley here and also on their financial success.
THE RECEPTION.
After the entertainment a reception was given at the handsome home of Dr. Charles K. Brmner, on W. Main street. It was attended by a large number of our citizens who took great pleasure in meeting and greeting Mr. Riley. Many were old friends whom he knew here in the happy days long ago, while others shook hands with Greenfield's most distinguished sen for the first time. Mr, Riley was at his best and had a cordial greeting and charming word for all. Mr. Will A. Hough introduced Mr. Riley to those with whom he was not acquainted. It was a mo3t delightful reception. The guests were first received by Dr. and Mrs. Bruner and then by the reception committee from the ladies of the Presbyterian church, under whose auspices the entertainment was given and they saw that all had a good time. The spacious home of Dr Bruner is well adapted for a large reception and it presented a beautful appearance Tuesday evening, being beautifully decorated with cut and pot flowers and brilliantly illuminated with gas and eleotric lights.
The "Old Band" under the direction of Prof. Mack, was in the dining room where thay discoursed sweet music during the entire evening.
Coffee sjjd wafers were served by Mrs. D. B. Coopei hnd Mrs. Will Hough, and lemonade by Mrs. F. S. Hammel. It was one of the most delightful receptions ever held in our city. The ladies of the Presbyterian church are certainly to be congratulated on the success of the Biley entertainment both at the opera house and the reception at Dr. Bruners.
It easily leads [all entertainments ever given here, both socially and financially. Mr. Riley no doubt knew he was held in high esteem and honor by the people of his native city and old home, but no man could receive such an ovation and not feel a sense of joy and gratitude for so many warm friends and well wishers. Greenfield is proud of ''Jim .Riley" and delights to honor him.

Tiie Koigine Blew Up.
Wednesday morning about 40 miles this side of Columbus, O., the engine drawing train No. 21, which goes through here at 11 f»3 a. m., blew up killed the fireman Geo. Waters and the engineer, Clark A. Trimble, wrecked the cars some and tore up the track badly. A few other persons were injured but none badly. Misses Lillie and Gay Cochran whoj had been visiting relatives at Cumberland Gapi Md. and in some Ohio cities, were on the train. They were with the other passengers badly frightened but not hurt. Tne Misses Cochran arrived home here at 4 p. m.
The Hinchm%n iiuildiug All Right. Architect Louis H. Gibson, of ludianapolis, was called here today by the County commissioners to investigate the Hinchman block, east of the new hotel to see if it was built sufficiently strong for the uses for which the County desired it, viz that of the County offices with their big safes and records and for a court room which at times is densely packed with people. After a careful examination he found that the building was substantially built and perfectly safe for court house purposes. He recommends however, that it be strengthened in a couple of places with pillars, which will be done at once.
