KG one thing Greenfield has done has added more to her reputation thau the fine syst&m of cement sidewalks which ii ave been anr! are being put in over the city. They please our residents who use them daily and particularly delight sti*augers.

CALIFORNIA, which is 45 years old as a '"State, is officially valued at si, io2,712,674 This is .fSlQ for ever/ man, woman and child in the State, or $4,200 for every family. Such a development of wealth •and social ])"ogress in half a century could take a: nowhere except in this republic.

T-

THE most striking feature of the Grand Army reunion at Louisville is the general igind cordial fraternization of the Federal "nd Confederate soldiers. It seems strange to civilians that men who were ^nce engaged in the grim work of trying kill each other should now meet iu he most friendly spirit aud '-drink from same canteen:'' but the truth is that msu who did the fighting in the war erlsh none of the bitterness which is

driving around over the county one r-tonish to see the amount of vandal In' the way of destroying school erty.

school houses have a third

,, '^alf of the window lights broken out. V' is particularly noticeable in Center ^sship. Not only have the windows -i broken but pumps have been injured

destroyed and out buildings smashed •. The trustees should offer a reward of ten to twenty-five dollars for infori.. ion leading to the discovery of a .ton destroyer of school property and -v ,, a discovered the gailty party should imnished to the full extent of the law.

ew convictions would no doubt soon '•iiK the evil practice up. The tax-pay-uf this county could no doubt by a i. i: ie inquiry among-their sons or hired lands assist in locating some of the many misdemeaners. A person who has been guilty of destroying school property as a rule takes pleasure in boasting of such *j»*&uft and any law abiding citizens who know the facts should take pleasurej in laying them before the prosecutor or the grauljury. The tax payers have suffiburdens to bear without being compelled to pay for property wantonly destroyed either just for fun or maliciously. The cost is the same. Let the tax payers keep a sharp look out aud much of the destruction will cease because few will care tQ lay themselves liable to a heavy fine. L^t all parentsjimpress these facts on their children that all property both public and private is sacred and should not under any circumstances be carelessly or maliciQjjply destroyed. DD not destroy that which you cannot replace.

ON3 thing Greenfield needs is a canning actory. Few people understand the •enormous amount of money put out by a first class establishment of this kind. It pays out much more thau a large number o£ other factories and scatters the money not only in town but through the country. The following article which we publish, from the Greenwood Graphic, shows the value of the J. T. Polk establishment to that place.

Ths fruit packing establishment of J. T. Polk is much more of a benefit to the people of this community than one would at first imagine. In Shelbyville there were formerly eight furniture factories, and when they were all running they would distribute each week $5..000. This we thought, was wonderful: But Mr. Polk distributes enough money to make an average of $5,000 per week for the enjear. The pea crop cost $75,000. This amount was distributed among farmers and employees, 75,000divided by by 5,000 gives the quotion of 15. So thp pea crop jalonft would supply a weekly di&tribution of $5,00 for fifteen weeks. But there are more each of tomatoes and corn tean peas. But suppose they were all three equal. The* $5,000 weekly average would last for forty-five weeks. The eight furniture factpries of Shelbyville are nearly all shut down now, and those that are run-

#iing are using only about h%lf force. Mr. Polk never curs down his force. Again, the furniture factories above mentioned all use the very narrowest and most gelfish policy with their men. Iu fact, they have got to do so in order to succeed. Mr. Polk uses the broadest and most liberal policy with all of the people associated with him. Taking it a.11 in all, the people of Greenwood are more fortunate than their neighbors of Shelbyville.

Mrs. Pheebe Thomas, of Junction City, 111., was told by her doctors she had Consumption and that there was no hope for ?!her, but two bottles Dr. Xingja New (Discovery completely cured her ami she usayfi it saved her life. Mr. Thomas

DR. T. A, COX AT EIiWOOD.

The Man Chaited with Being Implicated in the Myers Mystery has Returned.

Dr.

T. A. Cox, who has

been missing since since June 30 last, returned to Elwood, his former home. It will be remembered that Dr. Cox and A. F. Burnett are accused of making away with Thomas Myers, at Gem, last June, iu order that they might secure $8,000 insurance on his life which had been issued in favor of Dr. Cox.

Iu an interview he stated that he had been in New Orleans mo&t of the time since his disappearance, July 1. When asked why he left so suddenly, he said: "Well, I learned that a warrant was to be filed against me charging me with murder and knowing that my physical condition would not permit me to remain iu jail long. I listened to mv wife's advice and left.''

Continuing., he seid: "I have no statement to make in regard to the disappearance of Thomas Myers, other than that I am here as I said I would be when court convened to answer to any charges preferred against me. I have been at Chattanooga since Sept. 11 with friends, and have not heard a word concerning the various charges against me."

When told that his sudden leaving had laid him open to all sorts of chargts, he said: "I would not have goue but for my wife and the reason before stated." In response to a question if he intended demanding the insurance on Myers drawn in his favor, he refused to make any statement. Cox will not be arrested unless he demands insurance money, the Foresters say, aud then the Supreme Ljdge at Toronto will have to order the action.

Another Corpse iu Alyer's Grave.

There was no fake about the corpse that was placed in the grave of Thomas Myer's, at Liberty Cemetery, near Clifford Saturday morning. Thomas Hamblen, a former resident of Clifford, died at Attica, Ind., Thursday, of typhoid fever. His remains were brought to Clifford and buried in the grave that was made for Thomas Myers, whose mysterious death at Gei*, Ind., and "fake" burial by Dr. Cox, at Clifford, caused a sensation a few months ago. The family lot of the Hamblens was full and the relatives were compelled to take the Myera grave, whichadjoined theirs.

Deafness Cannot be. Cured

By local applications a* they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of Eustachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling souud or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely Jclosed deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh which is nothing but an inflamed condition of ttie mucous surfaces.

We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hail's Catarrh Oure. Send for circulars, free.

A Card From tlie Teachers,

In this week's issue of one of our county papers there appeared an article concerning our City Schools which was incorrect. It is evident that the writer did not know that it is the custom new, as it has been for years, for the teachers of each grade to hold weekly meetings to prepare work. Our schools have never started out with better prospects for success than the present year, and we invite the patrons to visit our rooms and judge for themselves. Especially do we extend an invitation to the writer of the article mentioned to visit our teachers' meetings, where he may inform himself and thus be less liable to make mistakes in the future.

IF CHKIST BE ABOARD

THERE IS NOTHING TO FEAR IN

NEW YORK, -Sept. 22.—In his sermon for today Rev. Dr. Talmage discourses on a dramatic incident during the Saviour's life among the Galilean fishermen and draws from it a striking lesson for the men and women of the present day. The subject was "Rough Sailing," and the text, Mark iv, 3G, 37, "And there were also with him other little ships, and there arose a great storm of wind. "v

Tiberias, Galilee and Gennesaret were three names for the same -lake. It lay in a scene of great luxuriance. The surrounding hills, high, terraced, eloping, gorged, were so many hanging gardens of beauty. The streams tumbled down through rocks of gray and red limestone, and flashing frora the hillside bounded to the sea. In the time of our Lord the valleys, headlands and ridges were covered thickly with vegetation, and so great was the variety of climate that the palm tree of the torrid aud the walnut tree of rigorous climate were only a little way -apart. Men in vineyards and olive gardens were gathering up the riches for the oil press. The hills and valleys were starred and crimsoned with flowers, from which Christ took his text, and the disciples learned lessons of patience and trust. It stftmed as if God lnid dashed a wave of beauty on all the scene until it hung dripping from the rocks, the hills,, the oleanders. On the back of the Lebanon range the glory of the earthly scene was carried up as if to set it in range with the hills of heaven.

A Beautiful Sea.

No other gem ever had so exquisite a setting as beautiful Gennesaret. The •waters were clear and sweet and thickly inhabited, tempting innumerable nets and affording a livelihood for great populations. Bethsaida, Chorazin and Capernaum stood on the bank roaring with wheels of traffic and flashing with splendid equipages', and shooting their vessels across the lake, bringing' merchandise for Damascus and passing great cargoes of wealthy product. Pleasure boats of Roman gentlemen and fishing smacks of the country people, tvho had come down to cast a net there, passed each other with nod and shout and welcome, or side by sido swnng idly at the mooring. Palaoe and luxuriant bath and vineyard, tower and shadowTy arbor, looking off upon the calm sweet scene as the eveffing shadows began to drop, andHermon, with its head oovered with perpetual snow, in the glow of the setting sun looked like a white^feearded prophet ready to ascend in, a chariot of fire. I think we shall have a quiet night I Not a leaf winks in the air or a ripple disturbs the surfaced Gennesaret. The shadows of the great headlands stalk clear across the water. The voices of eveningtide, how drowsily they. ..strike the ear—the splash of the boatman's oar, and the. thumping of the captured fish on the boat's bottom, and those indescribable sounds which fill the air at nightfall. You hasten up the beach'of the lake a little way, and there you find an excitement as of an embarkation. A flotilla is pushing out from the western shore of the lake—not a squadron with deadly, armament, not a clipper to ply with valuable merchandise, not piratic vessels with grappling hook to hug to deatH whatever they could seize, but a flotilla laden with messengers of light and. mercy and peace. Jesus is in the front ship. His friends and admirers are in the small boats fQllowing after. Christ, by the rocking of the boat and the fatigues of the preaching exercises of the day, is induced to slumber, and I see him in the stern of the boat, with a pillow perhaps extemporized out of a fisherman's coat, sound asleep. Tlie breezes of the lake run their fingers through the locks Of the wornout sleeper, and on its surface there riseth and falleth the light ship, like a dhildon the bosom of its sleeping mother 1 Calm night. Starry night. ,Beautiful night. Run up all the sails, and ply all the oars, and let the boats—the big boat and the small boats—go gliding over gentife Gennesaret

A Storm Arises.

The sailors prophesy a change, in the weather. Clouds begin-to travel up. the sky and congregate. After, awhile, even $he passengers hear the moan of' the storm, which oomee on with,, rapid strides and with

(all

the terrors of hur­

ricane and darkness. The boat, caught in the sudden fury, trembles like a deer at bay amid the wild clangor of the bounds. Great patches of foam are fluijg through the air. The loosened sails, flapping hi the wind, crack like pistols. The email boats poised on the white oliff of* the driven sea tremble like oceah petpela, and then plunge into the trough with terrific swoop until a wave strikes them with thundter diack, and overboard go the oordage, the tackmig and masts, and the drenched disciples

the rnsh hi to thfe stern of the Boat and shout amid the hurricane, "Master, xsarest thou so.t that we, perish?" That great personage, lifted his headJfrom the fisherman's ooat and walked out to the prow of the vessel and looked upon the storm. Ou j^ll sides were the small boats tossing fti helplessness, and from them cause the cries .of drowning men." Ejy the flash of lightning I see the calmness of the uncovered brow of Jesus and the spray of the sea1 dripping from his beard. He has two worda of Wimnjand •^-oaejlor the wind, tho other, for the soa. He looks ittto the*tempestuous hpdvens and he cries, "Pe^oe I" apd then he looks down into the infuriate waters »nd Ije says, ''Be still l'• The thundeca beat a retreat.

MAK­

ING LIFE'S STOTFMY VOYAGE.

Rev. Dr. Talinage Presents a Striking Lesson For the Men and Women .of the Present Day—Christ Stilling the Tempest—A Brilliant Picture.

The storm is dead. And while the erdw are untangling the cordage and the caBlee and baling oat the' water from flie hold of the ship the disciples stand wonder struck, now gazing into the calm sky, now gazing into the calm sea, now gazing into the calm face of Jesus, and whispering one to another, "What manner of man is this, that,even the winds arid the sea obey him?"

If Christ Be Aboard.

I learn, first, from this, subject that when you are going to trike a voyage of any kind you ought to have Christ, in the ship. The fact is that those boats would all have gone to the bottom if Christ had not been there. Now, you are about to voyago out into some new enterprise—into some new business relation. You are going to plan some great matter of profit. I hope it is so. If you are content to go along in tho treadmill course and plan nothing new, you are not fulfilling your mission. What you can.do by the utmost, tension-of body, mind and soul that you are boupd to do. You have no right to be colonel of a regiment if God calls you to command an army. You have no right to bo stoker in a steamer if God commands you to be admiral of the navy. You have no right to engineer a ferryboat from river bank to river bank if God commands you to engineer a Cunarder from New York to Liverpool.. But whatever enterprise you undertake, and on whatever voyage you start,, be sure to take Christ in the sh'ip. Heie are men largely prosuered. The seed of a small en.terpri.se grew into an accumulated and ovcrshadowing success. Their cup of 'pro^peritjr is running over. Every day sees a commercial or a mechanical triumph. Yet they are not puffed up. They acknowledge tho God who grows tho harvests and gives them all their prosperity. When disaster comes that destroys others, they are only helped into higher experiences. The coldest Winds that ever blew down from

FUOW

capped Hermon

and tossed G-enuesaret into foam and agony could not hurt them. Let the winds blow until they crack their cheeks. Let the breiikers boom—all is well, Christ ia iu the ship. Here are other men, the prey of uncertainties. When they succeed, they

vstrut

through tho

world in great vanity and wipe their feet on the sensitiveness of others. Disaster comes, and they are utterly down. They are good sailors* on a fair day, when the sky is clear and the sea is smooth, but they cannot ontri de a storm. After awhile the packet is tossed abeam's •end, and it seems as if she must go down with all the cargo. Push out from the shore with lifebotil, long boat, shallop and pinnace. You fcaimot save the crew. The storm twists off the,masts. The sea rises up to take down the vessel. Down she goes I No Christ in that ship.

I speak to young people whose voyage in life will be a mingling of sunshine and of darkness, of arctic blast and of tropical tornado. Ytiu will have many a long, bright day of prosperity. The skies clear, the sea smooth. The crew exhilarant. The boat stanch will bound merrily over the billows. Crowd on all the canvas. Heigh, hoi Land, ahead! But suppose that Sckness.puts its bitter cup to your lips suppose that death overshadows your heart suppose misfortune, with some quick turn of the wheel, hurls you backward suppose that the wave of trial strikes you athwart ships, and bowsprit shivered, and halyards sw.ept into, tlie sea, and gangway crowded with piratical disasters, and the wave beneath, and the sky above, and the darkness around are filled with the clamor of voices of destruction. Oh, then you will want'Christ in the ship

When Stomns Couie.

I learn, in the next platie, that people who follow Christ must not always expect smooth .sailing. When these disciples got into the small boats", they said: "What a delightful t-hi^g this is 1 Who Would not be a follower of Christ when he can ride in one-df these small boats after the ship in which Jesus is sailing?" But when the storm came down these disciples found out that following Jesus did not always make smooth sailing. So you have found out, and So I have found out. If there are any people who you would think ought to have had a good time in getting out of this world, the apostles of Jesus Christ ought to have been the men. Have you ever noticed how they got oiit of the world? St James lost his head St. Philip was hung to death against., a pillar St. Matthew was struck to death by a halberd St. Mark was dragged to death through the streets St. James the Less had his brains dafsh'ed out With a fuller's club St Matthiqs was stoned tb death St. Thomas was struck through with a spear. Johij HusS in the fire, tlie Albigenses, the Waldenses, the Scotch Covenanters—did they always find smooth sailing? Why go so far?

There is ft younf* &ian in a s|ore in New York who h#s..a ^tyrd time to maintain' hfe Christian 'character. All the clerks laugh at htm, the employers in ti&t store l&ugh a't h'im, and when he loses ..his patjeehee. {hey f?ay, "You are pretty Christian I" NM.sp«easy ia it for that young man tckfolkjw Christ. If the lord did not help him hour ,^y hour, bp wcmld fail Tlipre are ecores.of young meh today who would .he willing to|estify that in following Christ one does not always finil smooth sailing. There is a Christian girl. In lie* hoiie they do not like Christ She has' hard work to get a silent place in w'bich to say her prayers. Father opposed to religion mother opposed to religion brothers thrift- Bisters opposed to Religion. Th(j Christian girl" dcffca^ltpt always *find it *staooth sailing whem she ttfles to follow

Jesus. But he of good hdart. As Seafarers, when- winds are-dead ahead, by fitting thekshipon starboard tack and bracking tye yards make -the*winds that oppose die course propel the fhip forward, so opposing troubles, through Christ, v.pering around the bdwsprit of faith, will wtfft yon to heayen, wheitf if the winds had been ahaftctlMy mfght have rooked and pmig ip sMp, and while atJ*

Again, my subject teaches me that ^oqd peojirii })!v?](V:.

of the.'^rti-x-irjles as they rushed into tlie stern of the vo.s--el and woke Christ up, you know that fiiey nre fearfully I scared. .And so it is now that you often find good people wildly agitated. ''Oh says eome Christian man, "tlie infidel magazines, the bad newspapers, tho bpirituali.stic societies, tho importation of so miin-y foreign errors, tiio church of

God is-going to be lost, the ship is going I to founder I The ship is going down!" What are you frightened about? An old lion goei3. into his cavern to take a sleep, and ho lies down until his shaggy mane covers his paws. Meanwhile tlie spiders outside- begin to spin webs over the month of his cavern a»d say, "That lion cannot break out thjtmgh this web," and the ke^p on spinning the gossamer threads iiiTtiT they get the mouth of the cavern 'covered over. "Now," they say, "the lion*sdone, the lion's done." After awhile the lion awakes and shakes himself, and he walks out from the cavern, never knowing there were any spiders' web?, and with his voice he shakes tho mountain. Let the infidels and the skeptics of this day go on spinning their webs, spinning -their infidel gossamer theories, spinning them all over the-place where' Christ seems to be sleeping. They say: "Christ oan.never again comte out The work is done- He can never get through tbta logical Web we have,been spinning." The day will come wjlien the Lion of JtSSab's. tribe will roiv?o himself and oorae forth and stiake mightily the nations. WJbat then all your gossamer threads? What is a spider.^ web to an aroused lion? Do ftot freti.'then, about the world's going backward/ It is going forward.

You stand on the banks of the sea when tljie^tideis rising. The almanac says 'th® %de is rising, but tho wave comes-up1 to ia certain point and then it receded-"'\Vhy," you sayv "the tide is going bsck.-'' No, it is not The next wave" 2OTi§s up a little higher, and it goes back Again you say the tide is go-ing-out," -i&wfche next time the wave com'§a^«£k.'hJgl}er point, and then to a hij.-Notwithstailding all these rece&sW|ffit Ijtst al'l-the- shipping of the world jmQAya it is high tide.

Tempest.

I learn also from this subjoct that Christ can hush the tempest Some of you, my hearers, have a heavy load of troubles. Some of you have wept until you. can weep no more. Perhaps God took the sweetest child out 5f"^our_ house, the one that asked the most curious questions, the one that hung around you with greatest fondnesa The gravedigger's spade cut down through your bleeding heart Or perhaps it was the only one that you had, and your soul has ever since'been like a desolated castle, where the birds of the night hoot amid the falling towers and along the crumbling stairway. Or perhaps it was an aged mother that was called away. You used to send for her when you had any kind of trouble. She was in your home to welcome your children into life, when they died she was there to pity you. You know that the old hand will never do any more kindness for you, and the lock of white hair that you keep so well in the casket of the locket does not look so well as it did on the dhy when she moved it back from the wrinkled forehead under the old fashioned bonnet in the church in the country. Or perhaps your property has gone. Yoil said,'' There, I have ao much in banksuock, so much I have in houses, so much I have in lands, so much I have in securities." Suddenly it is all gone. Alas I for the man who once had plenty of money, but who has hardly enough now for tlie morning marketing. No storm ever swept over Gennesaret like that which has gone trampling its thunders over your quaking souL But you awoke Christ in ^the back part of the ship,'crying, "Master, carest thou not that I perish?" and Christ rose up and quieted you. Jesus hushing the tempest.

There is one storm into which we must all run. When a man lets this life to take hold of the next, I ao not sare how much grace he has, he will want it,all. What is that out yonder? That is a dying Christian rocked on, the mrges of death. Winds that have

wrecked magnificent flotillas of pomp and worldly power oome down on that Christian soul. All the spirits of darkness seem'to be let loose, for it is their last chance. Tlie'wailing of kindred seems to minglQ with the swirl of the waters, and the scream of the wind and the thunder of the Sky. Deep to deep, billow to billow, yet no tremor, no gloom, no terror, no sighing for the dying Christian. The fact is that from tBe hack part of the boat a voice sings out, "When thou passest through the waters I will be with thee." By tlie flash of the storm the dying Christian sees that the harbor is Qnly just ahead. From heavenly castles voices of welcom^come over the waters. Peaice drops on the an-, cry wave as the storm sobs -itself to rest like a child falling asleep amid, tears and trouble. Qhrist hath hushed1 the tempest.
