The High School Lecture Course.

Those who are organizing the High School Lecture Course have not secured a sufficient number of subscribers for season tickets to make the course an assured fact. They have on the program the finest lecture talent in this country and the only thing necessary to make it a certainty that Greenfield will have as fine a lecture course as there will be in the state, is for a few more public spirited citizens to subscribe for tickets. The work of the committee is entirely disinterested, as they subscribe and pay for tickets as others do and get no pay for their labor. Such a committee deserves and should have the sympathy and liberal support of our citizens. Greenfield has had two fine lecture courses, and we should have one this year. Let it not be said that we are retrograding. Come to the aid of the committee and come at once, as they have to inform the lecture bureau at once as to the lecturers and the dates desired. See H. D. Barrett or Misses Woodward and Herrick of the High School.

Buildings ISeing Rapidly Fushed iu Oreeniield.

The numerous buildings which are going up over our city are being pushed very rapidly. An inquiry today showed the following number of men employed at work on the various buildings: L. A. Davis block, 7 A. J, Banks residence, 10 Christian church, 18 Greenfield Hotel, 25 Masonic Temple, 40 City High School building, 60. This does not include the teamsters and others who are hauling and providing material for the above buildings. There are many other buildings going up, on each of which a smaller number of men are employed, but we do not give them. We were, on a recent trip, all over the greater part of Nashville and Chattanooga, Tenn., and Atlanta, Ga., and say with confidence that there is more building going on Greenfield than in ell three of the above cities except in the exposition grounds at Atlanta.

He will bring two fine horses with him this fall, Danville Wilkes and and Belilian Prince.

Trustee J. K. Henby recently headed off 'one of the regular applicants for town ship aid in fine style. The man, strong and able bodied, applied for aid and said that his family was suffering for something to eat, and that he could secure no work. Mr. Henby informed. him that that seemed strange, as there was an abundance of work in the city, and that he himself had had trouble iu securing men to work. He told the man that he would be glad to give him work and at good pay, and for him to come down to his farm at 1 p. m. that day. Mr. Henby says that the man failed to show up for the work both that day and since, but that he has not been buck for township aid. There are too many men in this city who are able to work who do not do so all the time, and ih-:n rely on the township.

There have been a number of tramps in the city this w-*k, some of whom were quite -impudent. One called at a Main street residence and asked for something to eat, claiming to be a cripple, to have slept out in the cold all night and that he was very hungry. The lady offered him bread and butter, but the man asked for coffee and meat but was informed the family did not use coffee and that there was no meat for him, he left in disgU3t. He was a big stout young fellow and no cripple, unless he needed brain crutches. Another tramp soliciting aid, smelled so strongly of bad whiskey that he could arouse no sympathy. Our officers should send all such on in short order.

The case of the State of Indiana vs. Willis Parker, for surety of the peace, was disposed of in the Mayor's court Monday by a dismissal thereof by his brother, Campbell Parker, who was the complaining witness. The trouble grew out of a controversy concerning the ownship of some apples, and resulted in a fight between Willis Parker and his son on one band and Campbell Parker and his hired hand on the other, In which all the parties concerned were more or less hurt. Inasmuch as the trouble was a family matter and the prosecuting witness was desirous of seenring peace iu the family, which the other members of the family promised should henceforth be maintained, Campbell irker decided not not to further prosecute the action, and the case was accordingly dismissed at his suggestion. In the case of the State vs. Willis Parker, for surety of the peace, instituted by Mark Lowder, growing out of the same affair, a change of venue was demanded by the defendant, and the case was sent to 'Squire James Collins, of Buckcreek township, and set down for trial October 28th.

A Gas Belt .League.

Cal. McCullongh, in conjunction with others, is at the head of a movement to organize what might be termed a gas belt league for the purpose of conducting a gas belt exposition each year at some gas territory. It seems to be the purpose to keep as near the Pan Handle railway as possible, the principal cities included being Marion, Kokomo, Elwood, Muncie, Anderson, Hagerstown and Middletown. This object does not aim to conflict with local fairs, but rather to facilitate them by arranging different dates, aud taking the exhibits from one to another at a small expense.—Peru Journal.

Haucock county would assist in such a movement.
