Crandall. Harrison county, will be an Incorporated town shortly. There are r,H convicts In the Jeffer.vnville penitentiary. More than ever before at one time. A lead ins manufacturer of the city Fays th.it his mail has more than doubled within two days and most of his letters contain orders ami breathe th? tone of better times on the way. South lnd Tribune. On "Wednesday a strange woman received, permission t' leave a small sachel at a carpenter shop at Elkhart. As fche did not call again for the sachet it was turned over to an officer, who opened it and found it contained a Moody shirt. The woman has not been identified, and the afrair is a mystery. The seniors of Wabash college were riven a written examination in ShakFpearej the other day. There were a number of questions, the last being: '"(Jive your favorite quotation from Shakspeare." One weak-kneed scholar failed on all except this last one. which, he answered by the following quotation: "A hörne! A hörst! My kingdom for a horse!" County Commissioner Kyte will take a week off, beginning next Monday, and pay a visit to his father and grandmother In Jackson county. The latter is 104 years of age and is undoubtedly the oldest person living in Jackson county. Mr. Kyle says that she is still spry and able to do her own housework, and has thu health of a maiden. Columbus Herald. It now transpires that the death of the wife of T. J. Woodard of Elkharr at Abbington, 121.. at the home of hr parents was a case of suicide. For some time her mind had leen badly affected. To this cause is attributed the unnatural act. Mr. Woodard left her on the morning of the suicide in her usual condition and did not know of her death until he stepped off the prain at Elkhart on his return home. A citizen, who claims to be posted on matters pertaining to feeding wheat to hogs, says it skills the iork. He says In Dakota, where feeding wheat to hogs Is practiced, pork Is rejected by many as unfit to tipe. It may be that feeding corn to hogs has accustomed people to the flavor of corn fed pork. After becoming used to wheat fed pork they might relish It Just as well. No doubt about that. Why not feed hops xartlon wheat and partly on corn? Lagrange Standard. It is reported that after the insurance men make a settlement with Koderfer & Hoffman, proprietors of the window glass factory that was burned, ashed will he built over the furnaces, which were rot ruined in the tire, and work begun at once. The report meets with encouragement and seems to be the !est thing the management can do under the circumetanccs. The Ixxird of trade has a committee soliciting" aid for Messrs. Hoffman & Roderf.-r. Their report is very encouraging. Th'-re seems to be no doubt about Die factory b-ing built. The north-bound passenger train on the Pan-Handle railroad, due here at l-:0" p. m., came face to face with a mule yesterday on the track between this city anl Middletown. When the mule was struck he went flying through the air and alighted in a neighboring corn field. The train was making such swift time the engineer could not tell whether he had struck a mule or a man. II- only knew as he clipped by that he had encountered something. The train was stopped and a brakeman sent back to investigate. Then the train came on to Anderson and the brakeman walked in. Anderson Herald. Sam Straus of the firm of 'Strauss Pros, on Third-st. yesterday sent word to this city that he had killed an eagle while hunting in the vicinity of Lawreneeburg. Ind., and that the bird measured seven feet from tip to tip. A customer ha pinned to drop in from Iawreneeburg and stated that the alleged ?agle was a turkey, which Sam killed by mistake. The boys are waiting for his return. Cincinnati Enquirer. Sam is a brother of Dave Strauss, the furnier popular young dry goods merchant, and makes this town regularly. He is in the city today and says that the bird he shot was really an eagle. Columbus Herald. Saturday Dr. C. C. Power of Elkhart revived a message announcing the death of his father at Middleburg, Pa., and took the train that night for his old home. One week prior his father Fpent Sunday in Elkhart, and was in apparent good health. He spent a week in Chicag attending the world's fair. Thomas Power was a man of high standing and of considerable ability. For years he was quite prominent as a democratic politician of central Pennsylvania. He was an extensive land owner and fjr a number of years operated the famous I lower flouring irill at MiddUburg. H- reached the ripe old age of eighty-one years. South Pend Times. One feature of the ne-w bicycle ordinance is that when a person on a wheel wishes to pass a pedestrian on the sidewalk he shall ask permission of the pedestrian. This seemingly ludicrous provision Is almost wholly ignored by riders, and we do not believe any one lias suffered a.s a consequence. But, one day recently, a lady was taking an airing on her wheel and met a gentleman on the walk. She is very' conscientious and asked him in her sweetest tones, "Please, mister, may I pass?" And what did the fellow do? He just stopped, stared at her pityingly and laughed a regular guffaw. "Haw, haw, haw," right In her face. The lady says sh has not been so humiliated iii years. Elkhart Review. Trustee Work was down toward Penton township this week and heard the following story about Farmer Blue of lienton and a Millersville butcher. The butcher called on Mr. Plue some time ago and bought a fat cow of him which he said he would return for in a day or two and would butt her the animal in the riel-L Mr. I;lu and hired man were hauling corn fodder Tuesday when they saw the butcher and his helper drive into the field where the cattle were. In a few minutes the report of a rifle was heard and Mr. nine's hireri man looked toward the lield where the butchers were and then exclaimed to Mr. Plue; 'Why, they have shot down your tig cow." Mr. P.lue hastened to the field, and sine enough, they had slaughtered the wrong animal, the one A pure cream of tartar powder. i m4 M M. ia One rounded teaspoonful of Cleveland's VX i ' Baking: Powder does more and better work' than a heaping teaspoonful of any other.

Mr. Plue was awfully mad, and the butcher was awfully sorry, so sorry he crld like a shool boy, and told Mr. Plue to tind the best cow he could in the country, and let him know where It was and he would buy it and put It in Sir. lilue's yard. Elkhart Review. Every seat In the lecture room at St. Paul's parish was well filled Tuesday night and a few persons had to stand or miss the paper. The tall and bent figure of the former influential congressman from this district arose at the apjM)inted hour. Indiana has never produced a more striking character than t the orator of the evening, a man who left a deeper Impression upon his time. He was suffering with a slight cold and his Voice has grown weak from age and a weakened frame, but so perfect Is his elocution that every word was heard by the farthest removed auditor. There was no restlessness, no whispering. Mr. Julian held the throng by his old-time mastery and each one was listening breathlessly to his words. Richmond Palladium. Last spring William Ilutchlngs, a wellknown farmer residing near Darlington, started to drive to his home In a farm wagon after dark. When near the piace of Capt. E. P. McClaskey his team ran off an unguarded bridge over a small sluggish stream and the wagon was upset. Hutchings fell under it and was smothered In the mud. his body being found some hours later by passers-by. The bridge was on a county gravel road and the friends of the deceased claim that Its unprotected condition made it dangerous, especially after nightfall. Wright & Sellar have been em- ! ployed by Thomas Sutton, administrator of the estate of the deceased, to sue the county through its commissioners for damages. A suit for $10.Xitf has accordingly been entered. Crawfordsvllle Journal. How changeable i the human mind. A certain couple, who live not more than a hundred miles from here, are on? day parted; they vow they will never live together again. It is not very Jong until they are together again, agreeing to put all differnces aside. Their minds are as changeable as the tide of the restless ocean. Hut some of the causes which lead up to these differences. "Neighbors say" that she is a giHwl housekeeper and a good woman generally; that the male .side of the household is addicted to jealousy, will not let his better half out of his sight and will let none of the neighbor women come into the house. The truth of the matter may probably never be known, but at least all of the neighborhood are talking of the husband's cruelty and jealousy. NoMesville K niocrat. William Griffith had a very narrow escape from death Friday evening. He was walking on the Pake Erie railroad and when thirty or forty feet this side of the bridge that crosses Prairie branch stfpi'd on the Plover Leaf track, as he noticed a freight train coming in on the I,cke Erie. The smoke and rapidly gathering" darkness prevented him from seeing the east-hound passenger bearing down upon him on the Clover Leaf, and the noise of the two trains was apparently made by the one he had noticed. Py the merest chance he happened to catch sight of the passenger train in time to avoid being ground to death beneath the wheels, but failed to jump far enough away to escape injury. The engine struck him, breaking his left arm and collar bone, and he was knocked down the steep embankment and badly bru i sed . Fra n k f o r t Crescent. A lady went into a Main-st. grocery this morning and ordered a package of coffee ground. The grocer seemed preoccupied in mind and he took down a package of coffee and moved mechanically over to the mill. The coffee was dumped into the hopper the drawer from below pulled out. Away went the wheel and the cracking of coffee grains was all that could be heard for a few moments. When the last grain had Im -en ground to powder the grocer with his eyes bent on space picked up the drawer and turned the contents back Into the wrapper. Put the contents proved to be only air. The ground coffee was on the floor, the grocer in his preoccupation failing to replace the drawer after h had dusted it out. It would not be safe to ask the price of ground coffee in that store fur the grocer is a large man who carries his temper with him. Goshen Times. A Polish resident of the western part if the city is firmly convinced that It is better to have a dozen chickens stolen than not to find a pocket book with $10 in it. This Polish citizen had been out of employment for several months and his means of support for his family gradually dwindled until the chickens were about all he had left. And then line night somebody stole the chickens. It seemed as if he had had about all he could endure before, but this was the last straw. He gazed disconsolately Into the coop. Something unusual lay on the ground in front of him. His eye brightened and he sprang forward and picked it up. It was a pocjketbook. Fiercely and with tremj tiling hands he tore it ope-n. Money! I Money galore! Five, ten, twenty, fifty, a nunurea aonars: Ana strange to say the man who stole the chickens has not been back after the pocketbook. South Pend Tribune. James E. Stone is now occupying a condemned murderer's cell at the prison south. When the time comes to prepare the gallows he can see from his window the work going on. He will probably spend the time praying, or he may yet tell the truth about the murder. Many circumstances go to support the opinion of those who have kept careful track of the horrible affair, and subsequent developments, that he alone did not do the deed. That he was a party to the murder no one doubts, and that his sentence is a just one all agree. Put we do not believe that there is one man in ten, who has read all of the details of the butchery, the arrest, the confessions, the clews, the instinct of the hounds, who does not believe that Stone had accomplices. Nothing can shake that belief. On the way to prison Saturday Stone said: "What is the use of my making any more confessions? No one will believe me now." Washington Democrat. The jury came into court Tuesday with a verdict for $1.000 damatre In favor of Horner Stump by his next friend, Levi Stump, against Dr. Andrew J. Smith of Wabash, finding that -Dr. Smith st the loy's arm In an unskillful t'r careless manner whereby plaintiff was damaged, etc. The arguments In this case were made Monday afternoon. Henry C. Pttlt for plaintiff was followed by John M. Sayler, Judge II. P.. Sayler and Maj. Kid J lor the defense. J. IS. Kenner closed the argument for the plaintiff. It was quite a galaxy of legal talent. The speech of John M. Sayler, who Is one of the youngest memlers of the bar, was much remarked on by thrse present for its loic and eloquence. Milton acquitted himself superbly. The jury was out all night. The defendant. Dr. Smith, is said to be quite wealthy, and it Is supposed that he cares much more for his professional reputation that for the $1.000. Defense will appeal. Huntington Democrat. There is a young lady in this city who is above the average in ioint of good looks she knows it because' a large jrcenttsge of the people with whom ,she comes In contact are not backward In extolling her pretty eyes, exquisite complexion, handsome form and neat appearance generally. So much flattery has turned her thoughts from the "straight and narrow path" to that of seeking new acquaintances; to le petted and feted by her gentlemen friends In the one desire of her life. Should a strange gentleman cvtne to the city that Is passably good looking this young ladv Immediately begins to lay plans and work Schemen Wherebv the can form hl3 acquaintance, she 1 heard to make s'Jii: iia''Jxix remarks

as, "Oh, Isn't he lovely; he's just too sweet for anything;" "Oh, my-e-me-o-my-o he sets my heart to - fluttering, and I'm going to make a mash on him." She usually succeeds only too well, and she is very careful that her quiet little strolls and tete-a-tete meetings irre kept a secret. Noblesville Democrat. It. was a disgusted set of quail hunters that returned to Marlon last evening. Never has the time been, they declare, when the quails were so scarce. Why this is so they do not know, unless it la "that the snow stayed on so long last spring: that the greater number of the birds were starved. Charley Halderrnan and Jim Hamilton tramped over a thousand acres yesterday and never saw but seven birds In the whole time. Of these they succeeded In bagging two. Charley Eshelman and Charley Van Oorder brought in twenty-five. L. M. Whisler and H. S. Mark twenty and Curt Hiatt's party thirty-two. All of the above are good shots, and If there had been more birds thei scores would hive been heavier. Marlon Chronicle. The same story comes from other parts of Indima. Last winter extreme cold and continuous snow must have killed nearly all the quails. Fred Kocoruck has a pet monkey that

I has the freedom of his ber garden and place of business. It occasionally strays from the fold and Invades the premises : of the near neighbors. It has frequently ; done this of late, and has been a coni siderable source of annoyance to Ad Phillips's family, and Sunday afternoon j the monkey sprang from a grapevine ( onto the head of one of his little girls and bit one of her fingers pretty badly. ' The mtle girl, who Is of a nervous dlsposition, was frightened almost Into spasms, and Mrs. Philips was also badly frightened. The wound inflicted on the little girl's finger is a very painful one. Mr. Philips Is lying in wait now with a double-barreled shotgun, and' it Is likely there will soon be a monkey funeral. This same monkey also bit Gertie Meyer, Myrtle Foster. Jamison's boy and an- ' other one of Mr. Phllfps's girls. Colum bus Times. The Anderson friends of Will Rising, the popular young actor, were both pained and shocked to hear of his tragic death in New York. For some reason, which his friends fall to comprehend, the sweet tenor of the "Tangled Up" company ended his own life by sending a bullet through his brain. Kising's last visit to Anderson was in April when he and DeLange appeared at th Doxey theater in the farce comedy "Tangled Pj" and an after piece entitled "Why." The two comtnedlans were tendered a royal reception by the Elks after the performance, the festiities lasting until a late hour. Mr. Rising presided at the social session held in the lodge room, and In his genial whole-souled way madfriends of all who were present. Rising was a native of Lancaster, O.. and his parents who live thre are wealthy people. His musical education was completed In Italy and at one time he was the leading tenor in Lotta's company. Anderson Herald. The first lecture of th C. E. lecture course under the auspices of the Christian endeavor society of the Central Christian church at the White Sehaefer ball last evening, was well attended, there? being present about two hundred and fifty persons. The lecturer, Mrs. J. K. Nichols of Indianapolis. Is a favorite with cjoshen audiences, and was at her best last evening. Her "Poys" were handled without ploves, but in a sympathetic, kindly, loving manner. with a confession that the speaker has always loved boys. She described 'heir peculiarities and their dangers from the time they were three or four hand breadths in length, through all their vicissitudes until the completion of their college education. Mrs. Nichols has a pleasant and clear voice, .anil she used it to good effect, being frequently applauded, when she expressed some thought even alove her average, with an eloquence as grand as it was unexpected. She held the close attention of the audience throughout. Goshen Times. A widow who gave her name as Mrs. Molly Simon came into the union depot at Chicago the other day from Pierre, ; S. P., with eight children, on her way to Goshen, Ind. They all rode on one , ticket. That was the one the mother had bought herself. The entire union , depot force was laughing ibout it. The widow had changed roads several times. Each time she met a new conductor a i row ensued, but she came out victorious I every time. The children were all j small. The railway rules allow children ( under six years of age to ride free, j "Are these all your children?" the conduct or would ask. "Yes. sir; they are. I Don't they look like me?" "Well. I can't j carry all of them" free. Some of them are over six years old." "Why, there are two pairs of twins in among them." j she would exultlngly exclaim; then all the passengers would laugh, and the : entire delegation got their little feet on j the one ticket and rode safely through, i It was learned from the conductor that she was engaged to an Elkhart county farmer. Valparaiso Messenger. The discovery of gold in Brown county, this state, may prove a great curse to the people of that vicinity. Prown county bears the distinction of having no railroads, no saloons, and no prisoners in Its jail. Nearly all its inhabitants are democrats and they are a peaceable, contented and happy people. The gold discoveries have been made on Pean Plossom creek and its tributaries and, there is an influx of gold hunters. Gold is found in the washings of the creeks and by the most primitive methods of washing more than 13,000 worth of the yellow metal has been gathered from the creek bottoms within the past five years. Modern mining machinery is being placed In position, and it has ben demonstrated that the earth along the creek banks will yield $l.r0 In gold for every ton of clay, and for this yield it Is said gold mining can be carried on profitably. Emigration Is flowing Into Pean PlosFom valley and It may not be long until the whole social fabric of that quiet, peaceful community will be changed. Logansport Pharos. The Indian will not work; he will die first. Who knows but that In the construction of the universe the same characteristic, only in a milder degree.was infused in the broncho. Anyway one of these animals which had been lured from its native heath and pressed Into bondage gained a temporary freedom last evening and rushing to the Lake Shore crossing on Llncoln-ave. stood up defiantly before No. 5, the west-bound passenger. If the poor animal sought death by this means It was doomed to disappointment, for after the Iron monster had passed It, it crawled off the right-of-way with a shattered hind leg. Marshal Self and Big Jim Daton, the night policeman, had thfir attention directed to the mute sufferer and their pity was touched. "It ought to be shot," confessed Mr. Daton, "but I cannot shoot lt. I love horses next to my own kin." Henry Kauffman, the oil dealer. owned the animal. He was hunted up and put the suffering animal out of Its misery, and thus ended a life. The broncho had about lived up Its usefulness, wore out Its life for Its master, and what was left it but to die? Goshen Times. Many of our sportsmen deplore the growing scarcity of game and fish and wonder if the time Is not near at hand when it will be impossible to find anything worthy the name of game. There is one way in which there can be an abundance of fish In all the streams In the state. First enforce with vigor all the laws bearing on the destruction of fish. And then an effort should be made to have all the streams of the state stocked with a better class of game and food fishes. " TT? United States fish commissioner will furnish any reasonable quantity of small fish for the purpose. A few millions put in the larger streams would, in a few years fill those streams with the very best fish, which would furnish sport for the angler and food for the thousands. The question is -one of much importance and worthy careful consideration. The smaller game, such as quail, pheasants, squirrels, snipe and other kinds could be wonderfully increased by close enforcement of the law prohibiting their their destruction for a few years. As it Is now, every bird and tyuirrel l.as numerous enemies lying

In wait readv to seek its destruction. i The woods and fields would soon be ikio- ! ulated with game If only a. chance were given and the pot-hunter shut out. And the streams and lakes of the state would be crowded with the finny tribe If only a chance were given. Muncie Herald. An informal affair, delightful In every detail, and at which Indiana's chief executive, Governor Claude Matthews, his wife, daughter. Miss Helen, and niece. Miss McMackir.. ;vere the guests of honor, was given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. El Marvin Saturday night. The beautiful home was brightly illuminated, and with Its furnishings fine, yet not profuse characteristic of the taste of the host and hostess the scene I was Indeed a pretty one. Mr. and Mrs. Marvin had extended a cordial invitation to a number of the (Jem city's representative people, Irrespective of party, and the spirit of g.n.d will and good feeling which hovered over the large crowd assembled to meet the "farmer" governor and his visiting party, showed the high esteem he has won from all by the Impartial treatment he has extended to high and low, rich and poor, alike. Mrs. Matthews. Miss Matthews and Miss McMackin are charming. Indeed, and no one could fill the honored position of being Indiana's leading ladles more acceptably than they. Frankfort Crescent. The speedy trial, conviction and condamnation of James E. Stone In the Iiviess circuit court Saturday morning for the Wratten murders was a genuine record-breaker and it is questionable whether it ever had an equal so far as speed goes. In fact the case from beginning to end has been remarkable for Its unusualness In many particulars. First, the crime was the most savage on record, and while there are cass where as many persons have been slain there is pel haps not another instance where an entire family of this size has fallen by the same murderous hand. Andthe apiwrent want of a motive also attractno little comment. The murderer says he loved the family that they were gMd neighbors, and he claims he did not secure any booty. He also displays a general composition of mind and body the like of which Is seldom if ever met with. He apparently has as tender love for his own offspring as any father could have, and, in full knowledge of the fact that the testimony of his wife and daughter before the prand Jury led him to the terrible trouble he Is in. he does not chide them for exposing his guilt, but rather he praises them for telling the truth about It. Washington Gazette. The Columbia City Commercial says Prof. Kirsch of that town is taking great interest in his duties as tih commissioner of the state of Indiana. He Is doing everything in his power to protect the linny Inhabitants of our lakes, livers and creeks. He Is also making an effort to stock the lakes throughout his Jurisdiction wherever the people promise to enforce the laws of the state, lie has just succeeded In securing üö.Ooj wall-eyed pike for the five little lakes in Noble and LaGrange counties. In talking with Mr. Kirsch, we learned that he would be glad to secure an equal number or even more. If desired, for the lakes in this county if the people will only guarantee to protect them. The minnows tliat he is now securing will be shipped next spring to the nearest railroad station from which they are to be taken to the different lakes by interested parties. This is all done without any e.xjense whatever to the county. The people around our lakes will certainly pledge themselves to protect the fish, for it would only be a short time until the most unlucky fisherman could catch all the fish he desired. Let all who feel an Interest in securing an abundance of fish give this matter their attention. In the death of William A. Beano, senior editor of the Democrat, one of the most conspicuous characters In the city of the last decade has passed away. He was the personnel of the paper which by his genius he made for and gave to a national reputation. His kind, sympathetic nature drove away many a troubled look; for his presence was geniality injected into life all around and about him. He was not Inclined to forget friends or enemies, although with him the latter were few, but euch he pursued with all the energy of determined resentment. Ills constant espousal of the rights of the newspaper fraternity was appreciated wherever he was known. Mr. Peart e was not a brilliant writer upon matters of political economy and he had no taste for such. He advocated men and measures, but he realized, and correctly, too, that all parties had their shams and that his own was not exempt from such; and no man could escape his just castlgatior. by concealing himself behind party and vagaries. He would say, "Smoke him out," and "let the sunlight of public opinion reveal the deception of treacherous humanity" whether In the capacity of preacher or teacher rich or poor high or low, and the meek and the lowly everywhere had In him a consistent a dvocate and defender, and incessant was his pursuit of the man who would defraud the printer, or as is so often the case in ingratitude smite the hand that helped him, whether hi.- bestowal were words of eulogy or money or a paper to read at his fireside. The ingrate to him was a thing for contempt and to be shunned. His facetiousness was a prominent characteristic, and what reader of the Democrat has not been amused by the witticisms of its editor? His aptness In this respect has always been a prominent feature of the Democrat. Mr. Peane firmly believed that man's true and proper mission was to make the world, better, and to increase the store of happiness of each and all. Goshen Democrat. Gen. John CV McQulston and wife were reunited in' marriage at Columbia, Cincinnati, last week after a separation of twelve years, and the event smacks somewhat of a romantic order In the lives of the old couple. Fifty-one years ago John C. McQuiston was married to Frances Amanda. Pailey of Kentucky. In JS51 or P02 they removed to this city, where Mr. McQuislon obtained employment in Craft & Hobhs's distillery, of which Sto.t Morris, an excellent machlrlst, was engineer. McQuiston acquired considerable knowledge of machinery under Morris. He first began railioading as fireman on the old I. & C. railroad, then being built from this city to Indianapolis, and which now forms a part of the Pig Four system. George H. ' Dunn was president and Robert Meek assistant superintendent and master mechanic ' 'of the new road. McQuiston was ambitious and persevering, and soon became promoted to engineer. He in time filled other Important positions very acceptably to the company. At the breaking out of the rebellion he entered the army as captain, and for gallant service finally reached the position of brigadier-general. After the close of tire war he again went to railroading, and perhaps there Is no railroad man in. this ectlon of the country better known than John McQuiston. He remained with the Hit; Four until about nine years ago, and since that time has been roadmaster of the Cincinnati, Georgetown & Portsmouth ' railroad Twelve years ago a rupture occurred In the household, and Mrs. McQuiston, after securing a divorce from the general, removed with her five grown sons to Missouri, where they have since resided. Frequent efforts were made by the children to reconcile the parents, but not until . recently were the overtures successful. A few weeks ao Mrs. McQuiston returned from .Missouri, met ltd

general at the residence of a son. and after a brief courtship were remarrttd in the presence of their sons and families and a few friends. The ceremony is said to have been very Impressive. Gen. McQuiston is seventy and his wife sixty-nine years öf age. Lawrence burg Pegister. The "Elkhart domestic" mentioned In a clipping from the Goshen Times, published in Tuesday's Truth, is Miss Ollle Zimmerman, aged nineteen, and her let rayer is one Carrier, who formerly "broke" on the vest end, but whose present whereabouts Is unknown to her. She appealed to Trustee Work on Monday for a ticket to New Paris, where Carrier's parents reside. This was given her and she expected to thrust herself upon their mercy, but on arriving there was told that they wCre not such as would be; moved by compassion or sympathy. She then returned to Goshen and from there was brought to Elkhart, and Mr. Work has sent her to the county infirmary temporarily. Six months ago Carrier sent for tier to meet him in Goshen to be married, but when she got there she was unable to find him and has not heard from him since. Her

l married sister in tlds city refused to af ford her shelter after her condition was discovered. Elkhart Truth. Perhaps no one learned the result of the tremendous victory of McKinley of Ohio at the elections in that state last week with deeper sorrow than Pen Harrison. It at once places McKinley more prominent as a candidate for president on the republica.ii ticket in l9ti than any other man of. his party, and dampens the aspirations of Harrison that much more. Th.Te can le no doubt that Harrison would like to be renominated. He wants to 1 "vindicated." and he new ring which controlled him for pecuniary consideration, very much desires Iiis renomlnUion. it is all up with them, however. I'ml.-r no considerations do we believe can Harrison again be nominated. He managed to secure the enmity of vast numbers or influential men of his pnrty. To this add the prominence of McKinley in a strong influential republican state, arid where does Harrison corne in? Penny should go to raising game chickens or some other equally lucrative employment, like Hays did after he was retired. Crawfordsvllle Pe lew. Ten years ago John Crlsler was a well-to-do and respected citizen of this county, and owned a good farm up near Hope. He got thu western fever, sold his farm and moved to Kansas, where he pure based some land and again engaged In farming. The land was represented as fro? from Incumbrance, but it turned out that an pa? tern lom company held a mortgage on It for nearly all it was worth. Other reverses followed and Crlsler lost his entire fortune, amounting to some $i,(ii0 or ?lf.en0. A few years ago be got into trouble with Columbus Carter, a neighbor, over a plow and the difficulty was settled in court. Crlsler winning the suit. This so enraged Carter that he attacked Crlsler with a pitchfork, gouging out his eyes and nearly killing him. The brutal assault upon Crlsler, who was well liked by the ihp!e in his community, caused a mob to gather, and Carter was caught and lynched. Yesterday an old man was seen o:i our struts blind In both eyes and being led by a little boy. He sold led pencils to gain a livelihood. This was John Crlsler. whose sad story Is as related above. He was on his way to Hope where he intends to spend the remainder of his days. Columbus Herald. The Logans-port Chronicle contains the following account of the recent shading scrape which took place In that city. Hattle Steele, a former resident of North Manchester, and the keeper of a disreputable house, being the person who handled the gun: "Hattle Steele Is the name of a woman who Is the reputed owner of a disreputable joint. On Saturday night while Hattle was enjoying a siesta with one William Fowler, a wood chopper, Mike Shocknessy, late a resident of the Michigan City penitentiary, Frank Hutchins. jr., and Clarence Sialey, a Pan-Handle lirematt, applied for admission. Miss or Mrs. Hattle requested them to go away. The three would not go and commenced operations by attempting to break in the door. Hattie pulled a revolver and shot through the door at the disturbers. Three times she pulled the trigger and every bullet struck the bulls-eye, Shocknessy being the target.

No death in the history of Goshen ha3 caused more genuine sorrow than the demise of William A. Beane. He was of a bright and cheerful disposition and given to looking on the bright side of everything. Everybody knew Hilly Peane and all will respect his memory. Some time av in conversation with the writer, Mr. Peane said he had the night before experienced a serious smothering attack and he thought he was going to die. After an interval, however, the spell passed off just as he Imagined the spirit would leave? the body and he felt like a new man. No bad effects remained and up to last Saturday evening he had been free from the strange visitations. He seemed conscious that he was likely to die at any time and expressed his readiness t -go. Mr. Beane was strong in the faith of immortality, but differed with manv In his religious beliefs. He had a peculiar philosophy and an abiding fait In the justice of God. He had a su preme contempt for anything hypocritical and despised affection. As a writer on the Goshen Democrat, a paper to which he devoted the best years of his life, he was unique and winning. While the publication was a true reflex of his personality, it won admiration because of its plain, homely diction and its honesty and uprightness in dealing with any subject Its editor espoused. Billy Peane away from the Goshen Democrat would have won no distinction as a publisher and writer, but with - it he was everything. The two seemed inseparable, their existence through half a century being so closely allied and intermingled, yet the time has come when they part company forever. While his "love of life increased with years and In his latter stages the great-, est love of life appears," he was not afraid of death and passed away like the fragrance of a flower, borne on the summer air. It had long been his wish that he might go in this manner, and that wish was gratified. He was full of years and honor and his memory will endure with the generation to which he belonged. Who can leave a richer legacy? Who would wbsli for more? Gyshcn Times, -
