Insane. Mr. John W. Simmons, of Columbia township, was brought to Jasper Tuesday and lodged in

tail as dangerously insane. He

m was so pronounced after examina

tiun bv lr. fc. J. Kempt. He was

an inmate of the Insane Hospital ten years ago, but was discharged as cured August 1st, 18S.7. He imroagines the Ixrd demands that h kill his brother and an uncle as ai expiation for sin, and roams th woods, preaching to the trees, and singing until he is exhausted. Ap plication has been made for his ad mission to the Hospital at Evans vUle. WWe are indebted to Hon. W T. Zenor for a copy of his speech in Congress on the tariff. While this measure ia rascally and obnoxiouc as it can be made, and will make the "rich richer and the poor poor er," it was what the gold bugs voted for last November, and it seems to us that Democtats in Congress are simply wasting time in discussing it. The financial question the free coinage of silver at IK to 1 will be the leading issue in all futurt campaigns until it is settled right, on a basis of American independ ence of British oppression, audacity, and gross injustice to the laboring classes. All the efforts of tariff tinkers will not diveit the masses ot the people from the greater issue. f Inder the compulsory edu cation law passed by the last Republican legislature the County Su perintendent, Sec'y of the Statt Board ot Charities, and a member to be designated by the State Board of Education to appoint at leaat two truant officers for each township in Dubois county, and there must also

lie appointed one for each city or incorporated town, ttaking three more or 27 truant officers in Du bois county, who must be paid from the county treasury $2 each, or 54 each day they all work in this coun ty. Presuming each one will put in at least 30 days, it will coat the taxpayers of the county $1,620 next winter. This is a nice little sum to pay for Republican extravagance. The cost in the State will not be less than $200,000. The same results could have been accomplished with a small part of this exjiense.

The other occupants of the burned district are losers on damaged goods from $.")) to lötKJ. Mrs. Dodd, of Bedford, who owned the building occupied bv Kemp, is loser about $1KX). Hollowell, C. Kaufmann, Mrs. Sutherlund and E as ley k Mar ley lose on buildings about $b000. The citizens of this place are laboring under conflicting emotions to-day. One of soirow for the unfortunates who lost their all in the tire and one of joy at the destruction of the unsightly old buildings that haye been an eyesore to the town tor years. The tire was evidently the work of an incendiary and the buildings had narrt wly escaped burning two times before.

A Beacon of Hope To those afflicted with Kidney or Bladder Diseases is Foley's Kidney Cure, (.iuaranteed. M. Friedman. L. E. ft St. L. Election At a meeting of the stockhold'-rs of the Louisville, Evansville A St. Louis consolidated railroad company, held at Bellville, III., Thurs

day, the following directors were elected: Charles S. Fairchild, James Stillman, Thomas Barrett, W. L Bull, Meyer Lehman, O. W. Bright, of New York ; Ceorge P. Heilman, Samuel Bayard, of Evansville, Ind. ; Theodore (i. Meier, of St. Louis. HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is poaMf evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. What To !.

Klaslaf the Cows Oood-Byc. Indianapolis Sua. "Uncle Jack" Gowdy's a-coming to town for the last time, Tuesday. Sunday he went to the barn, slapped the old mare a fond farewell, threw an extra handful of corn to the chickens and looked regretfully up into the rafters frescoed with cobwebs and hayseed. Monday, he diddled around the house, picking up his belongings and taking a final squint at the old nooks and corners of the home place. He divided souvenirs among the neighbors. One got the old family rake, another the wide-brimmed straw hat which

went to seed long ago, and

izot the nail which has, all these

'itiiens will hardly recognize

the court room next court. John

nv Smith has taken out the four

middle pillars, extended the bar so

its about six feet wider clear across the room, wainscotted it up to the

windows, sprinkled the floor with beer for good luck, and will ceil the room overhead. It will have a handsome steel ceiling instead of the plaster one. The work is superintended by nearly all the county officers, who seem tobe singularly attracted to the front porch, where a ixzling sound can be detected every few minutes, followed by a laugh and a strange look for a quarter. The building will have to be enlarged in a few years, if business keeps increasing. All the officers except the Clerk's and County Assessor's are too small now to transact the necessary business expeditiously and comfortably.

N. A. Ledger: At the recent dinner that the President gave to the Cabinet the cigars he distributed among his guests were full y eight inches long and one and onehalf inches in diameter. These cigars were received by the President from a manufacturer in Ha vana, and were a part of an invoice made to order for the Emperor of Austria, who likes his cigars long, fat and strong, and pays $20 each for boxes containing only ten cigars,

or $'2 per cigar. The tobacco is of the (inest quality to be obtained in Cuba. The cigar.) are made with unusaal care and there is just as much tobacco in ten of them as in a box containing one hundred ordinary cigars.

latum has for some time been setting on that fence waiting for some little offices to be scattered. Uncle Jack comes to Indianapolis Tuesday, to say au re voir to the members of the state central committee. Toward eventide he will board an east-bound train for New York. And in a few days he will be on the billowy sea regretting that be ever had a hand in Indiana politics and cursing McKinley and all his tribe. Such is the ingratitude of persons who are on the sea for the first time. He will separate from his high priced steamship fare, wrap his head in a towel and, while he groans in his stateroom, he will wish for just bite of bacon on the

old Rushville farm.
