The reported sale of the Morris lands in this county to B. J. Gifford seems to have been a “fake.” Woodin & Agate, the Foresman real estate dealers, sold George Meyers of near Mt Ayr, a 160 acre farm near Hebron, Porter county this week; consideration $9,300. -_• ■ An error occurred in the lady’s name of one of the marriage licenses published in The Democrat last week. It should have read Horace G. Sayler to Lillie D. Rowen, instead of Lillie D. Brown. /We have no doubt but the “les : sons” instilled in the minds of the youngsters at the foot ball game Monday will remain with them for many a day.

He still retains his farm in Union and expects to return to Jasper county again to reside in a few years. The Football Bulletin readers will miss some mighty entertaining and highly edifying reading, now that the season for that game is over.

Kaupke, and family of Kankakee tp., left this week for their new home in Norman, Oklahoma.] The best wishes of their host of friends in this county go with them, and it is hoped that Mrs. Kaupke’s health, for which the change is made, will be permnately benefited.

Regarding the foot race at Parr recently in which our Parr correspondent took exceptions to the way Parcels was dressed, Mr. Parcels tells us that he was dressed in regular running costume, such as is worn by all runners of any note, and he thinks the correspondent never saw much foot racing or he not have been so shocked or nave observed anything indecent or inappropriate at seeing a runner in the regulation suit.
