Mrs. Sarah Tyner, living near Pliiladelil\ phia, made it lively Thursday, for some -thief. When she arose yesterday morning she missed twenty-eight fine pullets. She sfe-harnessed her horse and, in company with a neighbor, set oil to Indianpolis to find the stolen property. Several times aloi the road she heard of the thief, and finally i. reached Budd's commission house, where she learned that the man had just sold a dozen of the chickens about fifteen rninutes before her arrival. In company with a policeman she set off in search of the thief. We do not know whether she caught him or not.

The death of Mr. Frank Simmons last Tuesday afternoon at 8 o'clock was indeed sudden. Lnsb Wednesday week he had a portion of the inside of his nose cauterized to prevent the growth of polypus.

There was a large number of friends and relatives at his funeral Thursday morning. The Funeral discourse by J. L. Parsons was indeed a fine one. He drew many valuable lessons from the lite of the young man who had just passed away. The burial was at i: imirous' Cemetery. We give an obituary notice

SiJO.OOAn Acre for Gas Land.

In Ohio gas land is being leased at $20.00 per acre. There is a big trust after all the gas territory in Ohio and Indiana. Calvin S Brice is behind the leasing in this county with his money and he is closely connected with the Standard Oil Co. Our farmers should consider well before they give their gas land away^

LAST Friday Hon. J. N. Huston resigned as Chairman of the Republican State Central Committee. Ho had met the enemy in two hard fought campaigns and was a victor in each. He organized and conquered where others hac1 been defeated. The Republican party of Indiana owes muchtoNelse Huston and when opportunity offers she should give him anything he wants. He neglected and sacrificed his own business to work for the Republican party and under discouraging circumstances and against odds, he achieved a victory in 1886 and again in 1888. He worked almost night and day and Indiana, electoral vote assisted in placing her illustrious son, General Benjamen Harrison in the White House. Among all Indiana's able men J. N. Huston is a leader, and no man deserves more at the hands of the party. Let the good servant be rewarded in due time.

GAS LANDS S20.00 PER ACE

TLIUSF '"IIUYIXG""

LEASES.

C'Lr.vi'.LAN'-C, July 24.—Cleveland opponents of the Standard Oil Company in the Ohio oil and gas iields say the big trusi is certainly engaged in an effort to buy up a .-onfrolof the natural-gas lands of Oh: Indiana. For natural-gas lands mi which leases could have been secure.! a liort time ago at $2 or $3 an acre. $20 vn acre had been paid by Standard representatives recently. Dr. Baxter, of Lira is the owner of a large amount of territory the Lima neighborhood, and he is one of the latest to sell out to the new combination. Dr. Baxter is now in the East Col. Calvin Brice, who has or late become prom nenUy identified wit-h Standard affairs. This move on he part of the Standard was brought about by the decision of the city of Toledo with ref its gas. After a great deal otrouble with the Standard the Toledo company oiL so-dilated to secure its own supply, but is is geueraay hei:eved now that the decision came too late.—Indianapolis Journal.

What do our farmers think now about gas lauds being valuable in the near future? $2, $8, aud even $20 an acre is being paid to lease gas land in Ohio. When land gets that high here, and your land is leased at $100 per well for "as long as oil or gas is found in paying quantities," you will want to go out and kick yourself. The REPUBLICAN warns you in time.

Orkuido Arbuckle, the ex-school teacher, who, with O. Staley, pleaded guilty of passing counterfeit coins, is reported to be in Iowa. The two men were released on bond with the understanding that they would report for sentence when wanted.

Arbuckle's attorneys have been notified that unless they produce him within ten days his bond will be forfeited. They say lu-y will be able to do so and that he will volunteer to return as soon as he is notified that he is wanted.

Staley was before Jndge Woods Wednesday, and was sentenced to six months iu the Hancock County Jail arid fined $100 and costs. His imprisonment is not to go into effect for thirty days. This delay was granted because of a showing that Staley is in very poor health, and not able to endure confinement.
