under arrest. Mr. Bridges, the County Commissioner elect for the First District, assumes his official duties as a member of the Board, on next Monday, and Mr. John D. Hart, who has served the people faithfully and well retires from office. Mr. Hart has well earned and merits the plaudits of the people for his course as a public officer; the record shows that his best efforts were put forth to do his duty efficiently, conscientiously and economically. Here’s a cure for pear blight; it don’t seem very reasonable, but perhaps it is worth trying. It comes from Tennessee, and is reported in the Hartselle Enquirer: Mr. Edwin Wilson told us the other day that he had doctored a fine pear tree which the blight had severely attacked, and made a success of it. He first cut away the diseased parts, then bored a dozen or so small holes with a bit through the bark and in sap wood. He then put a dose of calomel—say 5 to 10 grains in each hole, plugged the hole up with a cedar peg, and cut it off even with the bark. The tree soon covered this over by the natural process and the tree is now heavily loaded with fruit and is very thifty and prosperous looking.”
John Herod. The Franklin Democrat of recent date published au article from a correspondent in regard to the Hercd family, from which wo clip the following: Daily and Susan Herod left six children to mourn their loss, viz: John, E. D., Mansey, Luther, Catherine and Pendleton. All are dead except John and Luthur. John lives near Greencastle, Ind., and has a large family of boys and girls, who are noted citizens of*Putnam county. John Herod is a man of enterprise, being physically, a very stout and robust man. During his long and eventful life, he had been a very hard working man. Ho settled in Putnam county when young, and bought a fine farm, where he still lives in his old ago. Forty-four years ago 1 was intimately’ acquainted with the family. At that date I was teaching, and some of his children were my scholars. I well remember his boys stout and manly fellows. I learned to know them and to be very much attached to them. They were young so was I, and a kindred feeling sprang up which lasted many years I shall never forget Uncle John and his noble boys. Luther lives near Ladoga, Ind. He, too, raised a large family’, which a.re leading citizens oi Indiana. The other children lived and died in Kentucky, and their descend ants are numerous and enterprising citizens of Kentucky and the West.

Temperance Meeting.
Ci. Friday night a “good citizens” meeting was held at College Ave. M. E. Church the attendance was not large, but their was a good audience. Dr. Jenkins called the meeting to order and briefly stated the object of the meeting, and then introduced S. E. Nicholson, of Kokomo, the author of the Nicholson Bill, who made the speech of the evening, and heaped praise and compliments upon T. T. Moore and George W. Hanna, the legislative representatives from this county, for their able and ceaseless efforts in securing the passage of the Nicholson bill and other liquor legislation. He set forth the aims and objects '■'f ♦bo “Onnrl Citizens League,” and urged that all good citiz-
ens become members of it.
The suggestion was then made that a Good Citizens League be formed
The Hearne Case Depositions A special from Hannibal, Mo., gives a brief sy’nopsis of the newly taken depositions in the Stillwell murder case. The testimony, in brief was: John A. Johnston, who lived at the time of the murder in a house abut ing the Stillwell property, and was janitor of the Congregational Church in the same Meek, .testified that he arose about 12 o’clock on liie night of th* 5 murder and went to the church to build a fire. He saw a man and a woman pass from the woodshed to the Stillwell house, and again from the house to the woodshed. Heard one ask the other if everything was all right; he was 50 or 60 feet, from them, and could not identify them, and could not tell whether they were black or white; saw them strike
matches in the woodshed.
George W. Hernig, testified that ho saw Mrs. Hearne, coming out of Dr. Hearne’s office and heard her say to Dr. Hearne; “Is every thing all right for tonight?” Ho replied, “Yes,
everything is all fixed.”
What is a Sucker? A sucker is a fish, is not worth the little worm it takes to catch him, but the human sucker is generally caught on empty hook, and hooked in the the gills at that. A sucker is a fool who puts his money on the wheel of fortune, expecting to beat the shark at his own game. A sucker is the “hoodoo” who buys packages cf soap with $10 bills in them for five dollars. A sucker is the fellow who signs a receipt for a carload of grindstones and finds next week that he has signed a note for $200. A sucker is a youth who stakes his money on the pasteboard when be dosen’t know a bobtail flush from a boiled owl. A sucker is a farmer who buys his goods from a traveling peddler when he can buy them of bis merchant for 25 per cent Isss. The sucker is the windbag who sits around on the street and abuses everybody behind their backs and imagines people don’t get to hear of it. A sucker is the kicker who opposes every improvement, and rails at every hustler in town, until some other town springs up near him and his property depreciates 75 per cent, and he can’t sell it at that to get out of debt, until the sheriff helps him out - A sucker is a smart Alexender at twenty who knows more than his grandfather did at eighty. The world and the water are full of suckers and the shores are lined with sharks. The current is principally iown stream and the sucker must swim against the current if thev don’t want to get hooked.—Ex.

If you would increase your happiness and prolong your life, lorget your neighbor’s faults. Forgot all the slanders you have ever heard. Forget the fault-finding, and give a little thought to the case which provoked it. Forget the peculiarities of your friends and only remember the good points which make you fond of them. Forget all personal quarrels or histories yon have heard by accident, and which if repeated, would seem a thousand times worse than they are. Blot out as fnr as possible, all the diragreoblcs of life; they will come, but they will only grow larger when you remember them, and the constant thought of the acts of meaness, or worse still, malice, would only tend to make you mure lauuiiar with them.
