The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stage* and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive care now kaown to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for aay case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address, F. J.

Thomas Onstott, A Cattle Thief Caught.

Sunday night, four cattle were stolen from Samuel Bussell, four miles northeast of here. Monday afternoon the Brandy wine Horsethief Detective Association began a search for the thief. The cattle were tracked in the direction of Anderson and it was at once suspeeted that they had been driven there and sold. George Hudson, George Walker, John Bussell, Vard Finnell, Samuel Bussell and other members of the detective company went to Anderson and a little investigation disclosed the thief to be Thomas Onstott, a resident of Anderson, but formerly of this county. He had sold four cattle to Leander Clark, a butcher there, Monday. He was arrested and brought to Greenfield -by the members of the detective Co. and is now here iu jail. He has been in the penitentiary twice for forgery. His wife died recently in the insane asylum.

Four little childrea were left at his home in Anderson in very destitute circumstances. Their condition was sueh as to bring tears to the eyes of the officers. The officers said they would have the proper officers look after the children so that they would be cared for. Onstott seems to be a habitual criminal.

The Hancock County Medical Society.

The County Medical Society held their regular monthly meeting in the parlors of the Guymon House, Tuesday. Those present were, Doctors Alford and Hervey, Fortville J. A. Justice, Eden Liemmus, Maxwell Troy, Milner Corner and C. K. Bruner, Cornstock, King, J. H. Justice and Selman of Greenfield. Drs. Black and Barnes of this city were visitors. The subject under discussion was diphtheria, and quite an interesting meeting resulted. Dr. Bruner presented the statistics of the disease for Greenfield this year so far as reported to the Secretary of the Board of Health. There have been 24 cases, with 6 deaths, 8 recoveries, and 10 still sick. This does not include the Havens cases, as they were not reported, which was one death and one recovery. There may be another case or two not reported as yet.

Six of them cases were in one family, that of JameSjMcQuaid. Many citizens think the quarantine has not been sufficiently strict. It is hard to make it so with some doctors and others who are interested, objecting. Dr. Black, the Secretary, does the best he ran under the circumstances, but he should be so thoroughly backed up by public opinion that he could enforce the law to the letter. Are all the doctors who wait en diphtheria patients sufficiently careful in changing their clothing? No chances should be taken.

Hancock U»g Corn. Last, week we were over the greater part of Hancock County and among others talked with a good many men who were gathering corn. The corn all over the county is very fine. Occasionally we saw a piece that would only make about 30 bushels per acre, but the greater number of fields would run from 50 to 60 bushels per acre. Many fields are making 75 bushels. Mr. Ed Jackson has a forty acre field on Jerome Black's big farm in the south-svest part of this Tp., that will make 85 bushels per acre. He gathered 20 rows across the field that yielded 300

bushels. Jacob N. Hoss who lives on the same farm also had some remarkable fine corn He gathered a half acre that yielded 53 bushels or at the rate of 106 bushels per acre. He brought a number of ears into the REPUBLICAN office and a number of them had over 1,500 grains on them. That is big corn and no mistake. Irwin Barnard, ef Green Tp., had a big field of corn in the Sugar Creek bottom on the farm of his father, Young Barnard, that was showing up 100 bushels per acre. It was the best piece of corn we saw. It was thick on the the ground and the ears were very large. Take it all in, Hancock County has fine corn this year.
