Anderson Herald. A prominent citizen of Sugar Ridge tells ms that the republican campaign In that 'township is being made wholly upon socalled national Issues, that not a party speaker has as yet dared to touch upon home nor state matters. The rallying cry of the party is exclusively the calamity howl that the democratic party Is responflble for all there L3 and ha been of the depression in the times and the lack of employment. The discussion of state, county and township matten?, in which every voter and tax-payer i3 most vitally interested. Is entirely foreign to the republican party campaign schedule Jn the itati and county this year. Brazil Democrat.

Mrs. Ellen Mooney arrived home Tuesday from her six weeks' trip to Ireland. James Mooney, her son, by whom she was accompanied, came bf.ck as far as Washington City and stopped there to resume his work. They had a very prosperous Journey and were in perfect health all the time. They landed in Ireland at Londonderry and went from thrc down to the County Meath, where Mrs. Mooney w.ls born and reared. She left there fortylour years ago, but found many familiar
places and scenes and some familiar faces. They explored caves, visited ea sties and towers, and c !.- d up their visit in the Emerald Isle at Dublin, where they took a home-bound steamer. Richmond Palladium. The meeting of the oratorical association, Satt relay, was an extremely hot one. Thi fraternities kicked for a, representative on the credential committee, but didn't get it. After the chair by his vote had saved their i t port from adverse amendment, it was adopted. A m.oMon to throw out rroxie was not received by the chair nor would he put an appeal from this decision. Stirn' strong language was indulged in by the chair and Mr. M irtin. Mr. Wright poured oil on the waters, after which the "barb" ticket was elected by a vote of 1 t 4T. The ticket wa. as follows: Prcsi l -:it. E. V. Daugherty; vice-president, J. W. ItiUy; sec-rotary, J. L. Burton; treasurer, 11. R. Wa'.lo. Franklin News.

He turned to pl k up his grip and overcoat, which he had placed on the seat beside him. when he was astonished to discover that they were not there, ile had been "touched" by sonic nervy fellow. He reported his ;os.s to Patrolman Si Id m:1 Ige, who star.ed after th" thief, but the rascal had gotten too much of a start. The valise contained nothing but some samph.s of stationery. The thkf will probably throw it away when he sees its contents, and If anyone finds it they should take it to police headquarters, that it may be forwarded to Mr. Clogston. Munde News. A trial by jury was held in his honor. Squire Carr's court, Tuesday. The plaintiff was the state of Indiana and ti e defendant was one Bdward Gaine;;, who lives near Swan Pond. An allidavit was filed against Gaines by his wife, Chnclena flaines, t- compel him to keep the o.i:'e. She testified that he was very cnul to her and that he had threatened" to tal-e her life. They separate!, but he wculd visit her and make trouble.

Regarding an item which appeared In the Dispatch recently, relative to the told bath for the treatment of typhoid fever, a Michigan City physician said to a Dispatch reporter: "The cold water treatment for typhoid fever was Introduced by Currie of Liverpool, at the end of the last century, and of late years has. been forced on the profession by Brand of Stetiin. There is positively no treatment so efficacious for this fever arid Us concomitants. All the leading hospitals in this country use the cold bath and have been doing so for several years. Prejudice of the laity prevents the ue of the cold bath practice. Cold sponging is substituted. The clebrated Osier, of J..hn Hopkins university hospital, will adept no other treatment." Michigan City Dispatch. The Hammond Tribune says there is no law against importation of Pinkerton men into Indiana. This statement is false. When the great strike of 1S77 was on and Indianapolis was the scene of rioting, and when Ben Harrison put himself unasked at the head of the militia to quell the rioters, and when Pinkerton men were imported to shoot down strikers thn Indiana democracy saw the ned of what was known then as and is still called the anti-Pinkerton law. When passed the avowed purpose was to prevent the importation of Pinkerton men. True the law wa.s made general, for to specify only Pinkerton men would have been to d-fea: the very purpse f c which it was passed. This law was pass l over republican oppol;i,ai and would no doubt be repealed should they gain power to do so. Lake County News. A free-fjr-all fight took place at a lanoe given at a farm i evidence two miles northwes: of :ht- city Thursday night. Two young ni'-n began iigating and one, in drawing back to strike ;he other, struck a young lady in the face, knocking her down. She remained unconscious for some time. Several other difficulties were engaged in by the ruffians presen; and Jus: as the "pleasure stekers" were abou: to d.-part f r their homes some fellaw slipped up behind a young man seated in an open buggy and struck him a terrific blow on the head with a brick. He fell forward from the vehicle unconscious and began bleeding freely from the deep gash in the back of his head. The cowardly brute who did the work rapidly ran f or home. Bad liquor was the main cause of the disturbances. Washington Democrat. Jim Burnett is the name of an old man who has been living with his family on E. Broadway-st., known as the Neal property. Jame i rather skittish for a man of hia years and the fact that he draws a pension of $Jl a month lifts from hid shoulders many of the cares of the world. He Imagines that he is deeply in love with a Mrs. Adams, known bv some as "Straight Back." Last evening Mr. Burnett, with $-72 of rroud money in his inside pocket and Mis. Adams dandling gaily on his arm, shook the dust of Shelby vllle from iheir feet and skipped, he said, for Kentucky. Mrs. Burnett is left in destitute circumstances) and says that she don't care a continental for her husband, but thinks it was rather Fm.all in him not paying his grocery bill an 1 leaving her nothing to eat. Shelby ville Republican. The genuine Russian tliisrle has finally found its way Into northern Indiana. It grew on the right-of-way of the L. S. iV: M. S. railroad, about one mile ea3t of Brimfield. Prof. Coulter of Purdue university, pronounces it the real weed, and the firs: identlfit-d in the state. The "Kendallvill Sjn slates that "Mr. Faux, whosa farm ls crossed by the railroad there, savs that he noticed one p'ant in the fall cf 1S93; that it broke off near the rround and rolled along the track fjr quite a distance and finally got into a field. This year the plant grew up abundantly for a distance of twenty rods and enough to make a large load for a hay rack plants of all sizes from a foot to four feet In diameter. Since the character of the plant was known the section men have been cutting it down, but the plants have ripened their seed and the ground Is well sown. From all appearance it has a good start." Blake Ream, the Kokomo man who trave'eJ all the way to Wayne; county to whip a man who had, abused his stepdaughter, will go back to the scene of hLs encounter this morning, in answer to a warrant charging him with committing assault: and, battery. When the word wa.s first received .here Ream was charged with ns-ault with intent to cotnmit murder, but the parties evidently thought this too strong a charge, and when; the warrant for Ream's arrest was received by Sheriff SumpEiort i: charged plain assault und battery. The sheriff turned the warrant over to Ream and he will go to Milton to face tho charge. He has retained Henry U. Johnson, the nsted Richmond attorney and congressman, to conduct his defense. Ream says that he Is willing to plead guilty to the charge of assault and pay a reasonable fine, but will not submit to an extortionate punLshment. Kokomo Dispatch. The Hon. John Renz returned from a canvass in "oid Orange" last Sunday. He accompanied Congressman Bretz on a tour through that county, and met hundreds of people. Jn speaking to the Democrat about the condition of th- party in Uhat county, he says: "During all my political life I have never found the democrats of Orange county in more earnest (rk for victory than they are now. Chairman Buskirk Ls certainly one of the hardest workers in the party, and he has, by good management, aroused every voter in the work. In every meeting held by Mr. Bretz and myself we were pleased to find Mr. Buskirk on hand, and if made no difference what distance he had to drive to get to the meeting. The meetings were all large and the rank and file of the party were alive in the work, and the speeches of Mr. Bretz were received with enthusiastic indorsement. He is a good, logical talker and ls especially popular with the voters and will receive the support of a great many republicans. I

see no reason why the entire democratic ticket should not be elected and I believe that it will. The farmers are outspoken in their condemnation of the repeal of the school biook law, the new t.ix law and other laws passed by the democratic legislature, and fear the success of the republican ticket will bring about a repeal of the same and will not vote the ticket on that account. Yes, sir, I am highly pleased with the outlook in Orange." Crawford County Democrat. John Wilson, who resides on Smokey row, demanled of the authorities yesterday ith at his wife be put under police surveillance to prevent her from running away with another man. Mrs. Wilson returned Saturday from a visit of several weeks in Jennings county. She tjld lur husband that she had no mora use for him an 1 that she was. going to leave him an.l had best not make any fus3 abaut it. She confessed she loved him no more becauseher hear: had) gon out to Frank Van Cleve, whom sho met in Jennings county. Wilson lt-arned that they were to elope this morning at Ö o'chx-k. This hour rolled by, but tho alleged despiler of his domestic happiness dil not put in an appearance, and pi'obab'.y It was best for him, as Wilson was prepared to give him a warm reception. It Ls understood now that Mrs. WlLsor has changed her mind about leaving her husband and that they will continue to live happily together. Wilson says that they have beer married f ir tho pest five years and this is ithe first storm that hovered over their household. Columbus Herald. Another case where the ties of matrimony have proved a certam failure was made known this morning, w'heii Nettle 11. Williams filed necessary papers with the county clerk asking for divorce an l alimony from her husband, Christy Williams. The plaintiff states that sho and Christy decided to live this life as one about April. 18S7. During the t'nv? of their living together affairs have not progressed with s.-rnity, and. according to tho plaintiff, Christy caressed her in anything but a fond manner. Upon divers occasions ho has cursed her ami called her names that would not sound well In print. That he drove her from Ms house on Feb. 7 last and that since then she has never resided in the sam" house with Chriy. He also inserted cards In the Richmond papers notifying all persons not to give her credit on anything whatever. Since the separation he has not furnished any means for her support. The plaintiff, therefore, upon the strength of the foregoing argument, asks a divorce, custody of children, and further requests that she may have alimony decreed In her favor In the sum of $1.0o0. Richmond Item. Timothy Haughey and his long haired fourteen-year-old son. residing near Six Mila Switch. were in the city Saturday. The teacher of the public? school which young Haughey attends has made objection to the manner in which he wears his hair, and has threatened to expel him unless he has it .shorn. The visit of the father and sort to the city Saturday was for the purpose of Investigating the authority of the teacher In demanding1 tho cutting of young Haughey's hair. In all of his fourteen years shears have never been, applied to his flowing locks, nor will ho permit them to be. His father ha attempted on several occasion.- to cut his hair, but the lad was so vigorous in his remonstrances that the parent was forced to desist, Mr. Haughey has two sons, both of whom wear theln hair long and will not permit It to be cut. ThJ entire family live like hermits in a small house near Six Mile Switch. They removed to this locality from Steuben county about thirteen years ag.. The father is quite an intelligent man, and in fact the entire family are above the average in intelligence. Their mode of living has excited comment in the neighborhood in which they reside. They raise but littj on their farm but fruit, and not a great deal of that, and seldom go to market. They all en jay the best of health It Is suspected that the old man Ls the possess r of a goolly fortune. New Albany Ledger. An attempt at robbery near Rosewood, Harrison county, was skillfully frustrated cm the night of the 18th, by the bravery and quick wit of a young woman. Peter Stewart is a day laborer and lives with his alster on a farm near Rosawood. He is very industrious ani practiced the mast rigid economy, and by his frugality has saved up quite a snug little sum of money. Instead of putting hLs money in bank, Stewart made hi deposits in an old violin. On Wednesday night three men called at Stewart'3 house during hi? .absence, and when the sister came to the door in answer to their knocks, she was told by one of the men 'that they had called for Mr. Stewart'ö violin, as they were going to play for a dance that night, and that he. had sent them for It. The men were all strangers to MLss Stewart and she did not like their looks, but rfia showed no traces of her suspicions, and quietly Informed them that she would bring tha instrument at once. Instead, however, ehe entered a rear room,' where the Instrument was hidden, and, gathering It up, dashed through the rear door and over to her father's house, on an adjoining farm. The violin contained over $300 and the mert knew It, and had Miss Stowart showed any figns of suspicion of the men. they would have forcibly compiled her to give it up, and might have murdered her. Tha little community Lr all torn up over the affair, and much speculation is indulged la as to who the would-be robbers are. They were evidently acquainted with -the fact that the old fiddle contained money, and this fact ought to afford a clew that would lead to their detection. Stewart has put hLs money In bank since. New Albany Ledger. A horrible crime was committed near F.ngli?h. Crawford county, on the night of the 18th. George W. Goldman, brother of ex-County Superintendent John W. Goldman, crushed his wife'n skull with a fourpound flatiron, Instantly killing her. The murderer then placed a revolver to his lu-ad and blew out hLs brains. Goldman, at one time, was one of the brightest and most reputable citizens of Crawford county, but trouble entered into his life and bore upon him heavily, and he soon became a raving maniac. He was twice sent to the EvansviUe asylum for thft Insane, and the Ia-Bt time he was returned home hLs relatives and friends believed him cured. There hadi been no slgna of a re
turn of his malady during the last few days prior to the commission, of the- terrible crime, and it Is supposed that he was taken suddenly and violently Insane Thursday night, and wl"iouL warning, while his wife was peace e.

The writer had thj pleasure not many moons ago of attending what is called a "mutual improvement party," at the h me of :v of Washington's belb-s, and thir.k'ng t't.ii such parties should Coe encourage 1. h has written the foil owing, expla';.!'"g what a "mutual improvement pairty" i: 'invitations are i.-sued the same ,iö f r other socitty events, except that on the back is written what the invited Is expected to do to entertain and instruct the others present. Such parties could t; c-ondtieted on a purely literary' scale, interspersing the literary events on the pr -gram with muslu and dancing, thus relieving the monotony and making such parties congenial to all and a real s'ouree of mutual improvement. Not only would it 'be a source of much good in this way. but it would make all timid persons who are sublet ta 'stage fright' more able to collect their thoughts when called upon to talk. What a heavenly tubstitute su-h parties would be far the s-cilkd 'swell parties and dances' and the late hurs, now sj prevalent in society. At the recent 'mutual improvement party' which the writer attended there was but two in a crowd of thirty who did give what could b? called an Intelligent di-eairse. One young man was so embarrassed that he forgot what connection the cucumber had to a modern discovery. Another young man, between; frequent strokes vf his beautiful mustache, told of a Greene county farmer who had 'three hundred and thirty-three pigs.' The 'young curly-haired editor' gave a talk which democrats could not enjoy. Among those who were too timid to talk upon 'anything at all' was noticed a young jewel" and a certain deputy auditor." Washington DemocTat. Sunday noon a mad cow, belonging to Huffman Bros., broke out of the pens at the slaughter house In the eastern part of the city and ran down Broadway-st. playing sad havoc and leaving damage and destruction all along the line. When at the cvrner of Third and Broadway, William Huffman, who was trying to catch the mad animal, seized hold of a rope which was placed around its neck and threw the wild aiümal to the ground. Several ladies were standing in George Fendrich's yard and lie- warned the women to get in the house as the cow was mad and he knw it would be only a matter of time when the cow would raise to her feet and bin the light asain. Before the women had time to get in the house the animal give a spring and was on ita feet in less time than it takes to tell it. The maddened animal tossed Mr. Huffman in the air and made a dive for the women and caught Mrs. K. J. Loten, gathered her upon its horns and tossed her several feet in the air anl when Mrs. Loten fell on tho ground the furious brute fell on top of her. almost crushing the life out of her. Mrs. L. was picked up and was found to be horribly bruised and for a time was thought to have received internal Injuries, but upon examination was found to only be suffering from external bruises and from fright. The mad animal ran against Mr. Fendrich's house, tearing off a couple of window shutters, turning over a valuable vase, besides doing other damage. From there the furious animal went on its course down Broadway, anil while passing Seeond-st. the enraged brute ran into Mrs. Charles Pflster of 017 N.

Several days aso nine chicks were hatched. The setting being unusually large, she took them out of the nest and put them, for the time being, in an old basket, in which were some woolen rags and cotton. It seems that Mrs. Rozclle's pet cat hal been making this her rendezvous and the was not a little surprised when she went to take her afternoon nap that her bod was occupied. She, however, crawled in and when found was fast asleep. The day was cold and ail of the chickens were huddled up to her as chose as they could get. The cat seemed to take a motherly liking to them from the start and since then they have been inseparable. The nine little ones seem delighted Avith their foster mother and will have nothing at all to do with the old hen, although she has repeatedly triod to entice them away. The cat objects when anyone approaches and it makes her very angry to have anyone touch one of the nine. She had a tight with the old hen the other clay and completely routed her. The chicks seem to understand her mews and purrs and never leave her side. They take strolls together and will have nothing to do with the other chickens. The cat hunts them suitable food and they are perfectly contented. Mrs. Rozelle has absolute faith in the cat and will allow her to raise them.

Vn tlie Ilev. Doctor Hut a. I.eaa Dt1 1 n gul Ii cd Smith f To the Editor Sir: I trust that you will permit a few words of explanation about the communication, from Anderson, in Monday's Sentinel. Relieving that mmy good people who read that communication will be misled. I want to say: (1) Two years ago (the Rev. Dr. Smith was nst preaching" in Winchester. I lived at that time near that city and know whereof I speak. I also lived not far from where "Dive Smith" lived, who wanted to trade wives with a man by the name of Helme. Neither of these men were ministers at that time (two years ago), and as they then avc re trying to trade wives it is not reasonable to suppose that Smith baa arisen to the distinction attributed to him in the Anderson communication; (2) Smith was not preaching in Winchester when he became "infatuated with IleCm'a wife," for he never did preach In that city at all, but he was attending a meeting which Avas conducted by a Ftrange man and AA-oman who came Into tho neighborhood In which Smith lived, near Carlos City, Randolph county. The man and Aveman who conducted the meeting were not identified with any church and, advocated some very strange doctrines in which Smith and Helms became believers. Immediately "the wife trade" originated and lawyers were consulted, who informed the jnen that euch an exchange could no: be made; n these men are neither one ministers. The HfV. Dr. Smith, who figures as a "wife trader." 1 ,i " anil It I n

I and Ohio" it is only in a very man cir- ! , ie- if he is noted for anything at all it
is f.or his ignorance an.l vacilation; (4) it Js' absurd and misleading ta announce to the public that because two such characters as .hese trade wives that "ministers trade wives." and to cause peopl to believe that a worthless Ignoramus is a "reverend doctor." Relieving the public ought to be acquainted Avith these facts I ask you kindly to publish the same. J. W. BOWEN. "Charlottsvilie, Oct.
