To him who is exorcised thereby the chastening may be not pleasant, but grievous, yet "it works out a far more exceeding weight of glory." Which is proved again in the career of Grover Cleveland and by the career of every great man. There was a time in the life of Grover Cleveland when he had to decide between the demands of his party and the demands of his conscience on the one hand the tumult and the shouting of the captains, on the other the whispering of the inward monitor. And,

RECALLS EARLY MASSACRE. The ninety-sixth anniversary of the massacre of Pigeon Roost, one mile north of Underwood, was held today in honor of the twenty-three people killed by the Indians in September, 1812. SEARCH STATE FOR LUXATIC. State-wide search is being made for relatives of Mrs. Anne Burge, who, doctors declare, la demented. The woman, fashionably dressed and well supplied with money, was arrested at Logansport tonight, but cannot remember where she lived or give any clew to her identity, except that she came from

At the closing session of the Friends general conference at "Winona Lake today, during a discussion of gambling, many women members of the assembly bitterly denounced bridge whist as one of the evils threatening the modern

SHERIFF CATCHES HORSE THIEF, A glance out of the window of his office netted Sheriff George Freeman, Of Wabash, brother of Will H. Freeman, state forester, 125.

Stltt threatened to blow up or burn everything in the neighborhood Jf he was not given J500 by each of the farmers of German township. INSANE FROM HARD WORK.

Following his prostration he was taken to a sanitarium at Oxford, O. BURNED PLANT REOPENS. Just two weeks after a fire which caused a loss of $50,000, the shovel plant of the Indiana Rolling Mill company, at Newcastle, was started today.
