Is this place getting bad or is it just trying to put on style? says that it .is the custom to eat a whole chicken for a meal without any thing to drink and only a small biscuit for roughness. We wondered why Frankie Stiller wore such a far away and absent-minded look Sunday night,.but on a little deeper thought our memory was jogged to the fact that Lulu went to Michigan City. Now, then, Frankie, we will tell her that we saw you and you looked downhearted enough but she says that if you will only quiz a little she will tell you so that you can go along next time. DeMOTTE. Mrs. Bailus of Chicago, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Watson of this village. Jesse Batson and wife have moved to DeMotte from Illinois and will make this their future home. Arthur Frame made a flying trip from Rensselaer to DeMotte on his wheel •’’"Friday eve., returning Sunday eve. John Sigler, of the firm of Sigler & Co., who has been on the sick list for s >me time, is still very low with a brain affection. Mrs. Ira Brockway, living four miles north of DeMotte, died very suddenly Saturday .morning. Interment in DeMotte cemetery. Mr. and Mrs. Fiauk Sigler of Hot Springs, are sojourning in DeMotte. Mr. Sigler superintends the building of the store now being erected. Quite a number of old friendsand relatives gathered at the home of Luther Frame on the evening of the 16th, as a surprise, it being his 44th birthday. After feasting on the good things whii h | the ladies had prepared, all went home : wishing Mr. and Mrs. Frame many! happy birthdays. Virgie was the scene last Saturday of quite an exciting fracas. It seems the correspondent of the Jasper County Democrat from that place gave out information which should have been kept Strictly pnvate, and as a consequence he was confronted by one of Uncle Sam’s fair sex, and for a time it looked as if his anatomy would soon bear like Cain, a distinguishing mark through lite. But happily for friend Virgie his oily tongue prevented what would otherwise have been a sad catastrophe to some of the young girls who have set their affections on him. Our advi-e to the Virgie correspondent is that he go a little slow, when Cupid is whispering his melodies of Icve to the fair sex.

BLACKFORD. Nice roads and good weather. Threshing about over on N. R. I). V. has got all he wants, hasn't he? Will Durant was in this locality last week. Miss Alice Snow spent Saturday at John Hurley's. The people of N. R. nearly all went to rthe hub to take in the show 1 uesday. Clarence Green and wile spent Saturday night with Clarence’s brother near Wheatfield. Subscribe for the paper, that gives all •the home news, and all the foreign news, The Jasper County Democrat. Those who have to move are looking for farms. Several of our Blackford citizens are going to try farming elsewhere. CEDAR RIDGE. A. G. Hendryx purchased a new Ostrorne mower. It you want to read it all, subscribe for The Democrat. Crops are looking as good as could be expected in these parts. Levi Savinder finished plastering the .new bouse for Mr. D. Miller. Fred Btalbaum was seen in our midst 3jut Sabbath. 1 wonder why? There will be another dance at Wheatfield one week from Saturday eve. A goodly number from here went to «he picnic Saturday and all had a good /time. Riley attended the picnic at Wheatt field Saturday and then came home on dhe T. P. 4 W. excursion.

Singing school will close next Saturday eve. until after the cleaning up of the school houses is finished. Kirs. Dunn of Normal, 111., who has been visiting her parents here for nearly two weeks, departed for home Monday. Nick Rassmussen is very sorry he did not go the picnic at Wheatfield Saturday for there was both pie and cake on the ground. If you have a race horse, bring it to Dunnville and they will lead it a heat, and rt you think you can play ball, go to Wheatfield. Little McNeil Price, who was visiting with his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Hart, two weeks ago, is very sick at his home in Bucyrus, Ohio.

DUNNVILLE. Dunnville! My Dunnville! Milton White of Clayton, is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Newman White. Miss Gladys Jones, one of our sisters of D. V., spent last Sunday at St. Joe. Mrs. Belle Wilson of Wolcott, is visiting her parents Mr. and Mrs. Hilliard. Otto Schrader and Sister Lydia Sands visited with Mr. and Mrs. James Stocks last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. J. Vandercarr were the chicken-eating guests, of Mr. and Mrs. Wilmington last Sunday. The Dunnville gray pony landed another prize at Wheatfield last Saturday. Always bet on the Dunnville Gray. Just because James Newhouse belongs to the fire department and wears 50 cent pants is no sign that he is married. Roosters can all crow. Joe Hilliard, who is attending the Normal at Rensselaer, spent Sunday at D V’., the home of his vouth. Joe is infatuated with the Normal ma'ams. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Wilmington departed for the state capital last week. Earl expects to work for the Adams and Erie Express Company at that place. Sister Annie Behles, who has been working at the metropolis of the northwest, is home again. Annie, like all sensible good girls, dearly loves old Dunnville. In the near future Dunnville will launch upon the sea of opposition, a full grown baseball nine. A good nine is all we lack. We h<>ve the material' for a fine club. Manson Wheeler of Momence, spent Sunday with his parents. Manson says that Momence is the only proper place. A superfluity in the shape of a fine girl makes him say that. Howard Huffacker told me the other rainy day, not to allude to him any more as Prof. He said, "your Majesty,” would be more in accord with his rank. We don’t believe in royalty. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Meiser, who have been visiting here for the past few weeks, departed for Judson last Sunday. Mr. Meiser will be a full-fledged druggist in the spring. He will graduate then. The Congress of Kankakee tp., will convene at Dunnville next Tuesday to attend to foreign affairs and ratify treaties. Hon. T. F. Maloney, chief executive, will deliver his annual message at this session. Mr. Wilmington passed through a terrific storm the other day and came out of it badly used nn. It was a steel contest ami the meta’ won, for his aged ap: earance passed ..way and the sun of boy'' hoot! arose. To make it more plain, he shaved h whiskers off the other day. A certain young man of Dunnville, in the s| ... of gayety, kindly licked the rosy ch .eks of one of our Dunnville girls, ’ .us making her echo the following inter- ..gallon, “What business had you of I sing me?” In the voice of extreme te-uierness, he meekly said: “Dear, that, that wasn't business, it was pleasure.” We were not aware that Virgie, the crow ned head of Jasper, was a poet. Alter searching through the annals of medieval history we find his counterpart in N-ro. Nero was both king and poet, and so is Virgie. What a striking resemblance. The time will come when he will hang his poetic instinct on a willow and s-nd up wails and lamentations worse than the weeping prophet of old. His poem was built on the plan of Esop's Fables and its central thought was kindred to the foundation theme of a yeliowoack novel. But he had to give vent to his feelings or burst his bands asunder. My good f riend of Virgie, in his superior wisdom, has seen hl to flourish over us the rod of condemnation. He, like all good pervaricators, has acknowledged that he is a professional fabricator, for the crown that we made out of the waste products of our land and the cardinal ones of his, was eagerly accepted by him. We can’t say with Anthony, that thrice we offered the crown and thrice he did refuse, but my dear friend of the wilds of Virgie, quickly saw his place and donned the crown and it just fit. He may have condescended to accept this rank but one thing is certain, he can't condescend any more. He is at the bottom of the ladder.

VIRGIE. Mrs. Chas. Weise was visiting a part of her family last week who are farming near Remington. Dr. Rice of DeMotte, was called to Virgie on Sunday to see Mrs. Bessie Nearhoff, who is on the sick list. Mrs. Peter Plummer received the sad news of the death of her cousin, Otto Floeright, who was killed by lightning at his. home near Goodland on the evening of the 22d. Seventeen tickets were sold at Virgie for the Michigan City excursion on the 22. Among those who went we noticed tasper McMurray, Mr. and Mrs. Henry iochbaum, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Leach, Sacks Geasy, Asa Leach, Parm Wiseman, C. A, Harrington and his two children, Edward Hurley, Will Wood and Henry Real. Mr. D. V. is quite familiar with several biblical characters, and especially Balaam’s mule. Wonder if it ever dawned on his inquiring mind that perhaps he might be a direct descendent? If not, it has on our's, because we can see a similarity between the two. Balaam's mule, if we remember correctly, was quite wise and had the power of beholding strange operations which was hid from the view of ordinary mortals. The mule saw the angel with the sword long before Balaam got a squint, so our friend sees great things in D. V. and we will content ourselves with the hope that like Balaam, bye-and-bye our eyes will be open and then we to can see the same things. INDEPENDENCE. Lincoln Jenkins is working for Korah Daniels.

MRS. n. B. m'intire killed. Word was received here Wednesday morning of the sudden death of Mrs. O. B. Mclntire of Indianapolis, who was killed in a runaway Tuesday night. The following account of her tragic death is taken from the Ir.dianapobs Sentinel: As the family of Owen J. Conrad of 1706 Capitol-ave, north, was alighting from a carnage after returning from a drive, the horse suddenly ran away and Mrs. Margaret C. Mclntire, mother of Mrs. Conrad, was killed almost instantly by jumping from the carriage with the infant child of Mrs. Conrad. The child was uninjured. The family, consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Conrad and child, Mrs. J. M. Rice of Cincinnati, a visitor, and Mrs. Mclntire, had driven upto the curb in front of the house after making some calls on College-ave. The horse, a large, spirited animal, belonging to Mr. Conrad, was not considered a safe driver and always required watching. Mr. Conrad alighted from the carriage, and, dropping the reins across the dash, began helping the others out. All were on the curb except Mrs. Mclntire and the infant of Mrs. Conrad, when the horse, perhaps impatient because of the long wait, or startled by the confusion behind him, began to run. The cries of "Whoa" only seemed

10 frighten him the more and in a moment he was at full gallop. Mr. Conrad ran after the carriage ana in an effort to reach the lines was knocked to the pavement and sustained a fractured rib. The frightened animal had gone but a half a square south when Mrs. Mclntire snatched the child up in her arms and jumpe 1. It was thought that her feet were caught by the carriage door and that she fell on her head. Mr. Conrad reached her a moment afterward, She was lying unconscious and apparently lifeless and the child, uninjured, was about six feet from her. Drs. Hodges, Leathers, Wilson and French were summoned and every effoit was made to revive her, but she died without regaining coi.bciousness within twenty minutes. The horse ran hut a short distance, then circled around to the stable, where he was easily canght. Mrs. Mclntire was the widow of Oliver B. Mclntire and was fifty-four years old. She came to this city with her busband twelve years ago from Remington, Ind. Mr. Mclntire died two years ago. But one child survives—Mrs. Conrad—with whom she made her home. Her mother lives at Warsaw, Ky., on the old family homestead. A sister, Mrs. D. H. Bates, lives at Henrietta, Tex. What most people want is something mild and gentle, when in need of a phvsic.
