Grand Jury has been interviewing

the boys this week.

School books, new and second hand, and all kinds of school supplies, at Langdon’s book store, No 10 East Washington street. 2t21 A business man’s safest, surest and most far reaching invitation to customers is an advertisment in the columns of the Star-Press. A thief entered the residence of H. C. Hatfield, through one of tha windo’tfyfon Friday evening, just after dark, but was frightened away by a neighbor who saw him enter, before he secured any booty. The Tunis or Broad Tailed Sheep, owned by Bridges ct Guilliams, exhibited at the Crawfordsville Fair, last week, was one of the great attractions of the week. The people crowded about the pens all day long, and there were scores of people xvho desired to invest in this stock, but the owners had no surplus to dispose of. The universal verdict was that they are the coming mutton sheep, and they are coming fast a crop any month in the year. Messrs. Bridges & Guilliams expect to make several additional importations at as early a date as possible. Wool experts say that the wool is first-class. Caught on the Crossing. Like lighting from a clear sky, or the hurricane that springs out of the calm, the Big Four passenger train going west, on Saturday morning, struck 1 the horse and buggy which were carrying Ralph and Sears Elsworth.Davis to this city. The accident occured at Big Four crossing of the ' gravel road, near the residence of Alfred Hirt, and resulted in killing the horse, knocking the buggy into “smithereens,” and throwing Sears and Davis into the gutter twenty-five feet away. Fortunately they were more frightened than hurt; Davis

Miss W’oodruflf, of Albany, Mo., is visiting at Wes W. Sellers’. Prof. Norman and family have returned from Eastern Indiana. John Wright of Madison township, is reported sick with typhoid fever. Dr. G. L. Curtiss preached at College Ave. Church last Sunday morn-

ing.

A new millinery store is going into the room formerly occupied by Cha-

pin.

An advertisement is the ladder that leads to wealth for both buyer and

seller.

Mrs. J. A. Patton and daughter joined her husband, at Boston, on Saturday. An advertisement is a tireless, never sleeping well-equipped hustler after business for the advertiser. Report has it that Sam Fisher, formerly of this city, is engaged to Miss Kate Herron, of Indianapolis. The Sullivan Times says: John F. McGill, of Putnam county, is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. S. H. Alkire. Make us happy by calling in and paying what you owe—we will appreciate it, and so will those we owe. He missed his train. I heard him cry “That Railway A^ent lied. Tuis very day I’ll go and buy A Rand-McNally Guide.” Mrs. Amanda Johnson died at the residence of iier father, John Kessler, in Roachdale, on Sept. 6, of consumption, after a long sickness. The marriage ol B. F. Weible and Mrs. Amanda Stevenson, daughter of John McCarty', of W'arren township, is announced as having taken place at Bedford, Ind., last week. A thief broke into the residence of Lelan Priest, at Roachdale, a few nights ago, and stole $30 in money and a watch from under bis pillow, while he slept the sleep of the inno-

cent.

Hon. George W. Cooper was here, on Friday evening, for a short time, and arranged for three appointments in this county. Additional appointments will be made for him here later

in the campaign.

A telegram from San Francisco, dated Sept.8, says: Special Agent H. B. Martin of the United States land office has returned from Death Valley after four and a half months’ absence. He went to do some surveying and for information regarding claims of private citizens to a portion of the country. Mr. Martin and his party examined the country for sixty or seventy miles to the south of Tulo canyon. The sand storms pre iled almost daily and the heat was intense. Part of the time they could get no water and they had to bring it a long distance on pack horses. “Our main stock of meat was bacon,” said Mr. Martin. “We could not get a particle that was fresh, so we ate the big lizards of the desert, which tho digger Indians eat, and are known as chawallahs, and they tasted a good deal like frogs. All of our potatoes rotted as soon as we got In the desert and we had no vegetables of any kind. The only tiling that helped us oat was canned fruit. The ordeal was so severe that each man lost some fifteen or twenty pounds in weight and all grew weak. Before I would go into it again I think 1 would resign. It was a trip to try the nerves, and 1 will never forget it. I never want to traverse that section again.” Tax Levies.

HOPS KILLS DESPAIR. And Beautiful Results Surely Follow. There is One Thing You Want Badly And Must Have. Even If You Have Given Up Possssing It This Will Give You Hope. Neuralgia ami nervousness are fearfully prevalent. There is no more painful disease than neuralgia. It indicates a diseased state of nerves and blood and the most terrible suffering is often present. Most everybody is nervous, and this Is more dangerous then most people think, for, as in the case of the well-known 8. W. Anderson, Esq., of Warren, Mass., it is very liable to lead to nervous prostration and paralysis, if not cured. He writes as follows about his wonderful recovery: “Some time ago I was afflicted with nervousness and neuralgia. The pains 1 suffered were frightful. They commenced in my legs and arms and then went to my head and face. Finally I had a paralytic shock on my right side which laid me up completely. “I continued suffering the most terrible agony from neuralgia and was nearly dead with pain. I took everything I ever heard of but got no better. I consultde four doctors but they did me no good. They said there was nothing but morphine pills that would help mo. I took them for nearly a year and was no better but began to get even worse. I heard of a skilful doctor in Worcester, Mass., and went there to see him. He said he could cure me in one week. I staid there three days and then went home. "The day after I got home I was taken worse than ever 1 had been before and my suffering was more than 1 could endure.

’jdp g'»,-

MB. S. W. ANDKKSON. “I continue i to grow worse every day all through the fall ami winter, then I became so bad that I had the pain almost constantly, and I could not have lived but a very short time longer if help had not been very close at hand. “My wife saw the advertisement of Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy and she wanted me to use it. Having heard it every highly spoken of I decided to try it although I had made up my mind I was about through with this world. “The first bottle I took stopped the pain entirely and my improvement was steady and sure from that time until I was cured. I could not have lived more than a week longer if I had not taken Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. “I am thankful to God for this medicine, it is the best remedy that ever came before the public. I thank Dr. Greene and I hope that he will be rewarded here in this world and the world to come. “I* am constantly recommending it and shall ulwa\ s continue to. I advise everybody to take this most wonderful medicine for it will make them stroug, healthy and vigorous.” You must have health. You want to be strong and well. Then why don't you take this greatest of all medicines, Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy? It w ill surely cure you. Try it. It is recommended ami used by physicians because it is the discovery and prescription of that most successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, Dr. Greene, of35West 14th Street, New York. The Doctor is consulted with by physicians themselves, in regard to nervous and chronic diseases and all may have his advice free by calling or writing. A single corporation controls more than nine-tenths of the entire world’s produce of diamonds. Everybody is Going South Now-a-days.

The four best-known women’s clubs of tho country are the New York Sorosis, the New England Woman's ( lub of Boston, the Chicago Woman’s Club and the New Century Club of Philadelphia. Besides these, there are hundreds of others of equal activity,

if less celebrity.

There isa mystery about the method

of motion of condors that has never been explained. They have been seen to cricle to and fro in the sky, half a day at a time, rising and descending

without once flapping a wing. The Democrats of Maryland are mak-

ing it exceedingly warm for the chief of the senatorial traitors whose treachery to Democratic principles prevented the I full measure of reform promised the people. All these fellows will 1m- weeded 1 out from the Democratic party as soon j as they can be reached, and the only re- i grot is that their terms are not all to" end

with the incoming legislatures. Vote-buying, which was formerly the

most important Republican industry in the state, lias disappeared with Republican protection. Witlvthe incoming of s perfectly honest and uutimidated voting, | it will lie observed, the state of Indiana has been easily Democratic. The state has never been honestly carried by the

Republicans since 1874.'

Every man or woman in Indiana who sends children to school has reason to be i grateful to the Democratic party for the present schoolbook law. The amount it I has saved in money and trouble has been j a great boon to Indiana school patrons. That law broke up one of the meanest rings that ever plundered tho people for I

its own lientftt.

The Republican party, having built j up the whole brood of trusts, is now trying to unload the odium of them on the Democratic party. But for Republican protection there would Ik- no sugar trust, for instance, to stand in the way j of honest tariff reform. MeKiulovism was as fruitful of trusts as a dead dog is

of maggots.

The Republican party is responsible for George H. Pullman and the whole I system which breeds such men. He votes its tick- t. its laws nourish him, he contributes to its campaign fund and is its legitimate offspring. Such conditions as pervade at Pullman were un- J heard of before tho long reign of Repub-

licanism.

Carnegie lias lost favor with the Republican party, not because he sold rot- | ten armorplate to the government, but I because he has weakened in his support of protection. Ij was that vile system which made the Carm gies possible. Re- I publicanisni, like Carnegie's plates, is

full of “blowholes.”

Democratic legislation killed Pinkertonism in Indiana. It also abolished “pluek-me” stores. It also provided the employes’ liability bill and other useful measures demanded by organized lalior. These things will be remembered by laboring men when they go to the polls

Tho Democratic law which makes tho big corporations pay their just share of the tax burdens is distasteful to Republicans. They would repeal it and remit the state back to the system formerly | prevailing -vhen the small fish were caught while tho big fish slipped

Strictly Pure W^hite Lead forms a permanent base for repainting and never has to be burned or scraped off on account of scaling or cracking. It is always smooth and clean.
