Bad Qccurrence---Death in a Well:at ' Last Thursday afternoon our citizens were startled by the intelligence that . Mr. Frank Stuck, a well-digger of this place, had that day died in a well, at ' Albion, from the effects of damps. The particulars of this fatal occurrence are about as follows: - M. Stuck and “Doe.” Hayden, who were in the employ of Christ. Kistler, “a pump manufacturer of this ‘place, were ;é#aged in digging a well for Smith Hadley, in Albipn. They had worked in the well during the forenoon and were about to resume work after dinner. Mr. Stuck was being lowered into the well when, feeling the effects-of damps, he signalled to the men above to take him out. They immediately drew him up, but when within about eight feet of the top the: unfortunate man lost his hold and fell tothe bottom. The workmen now realized the fearful truth that the well contained damps and at: ‘once used every available means for therecovery of the body/ In this the workmen were assisted by Mr. Hiram Bradley. A lighted candle was first lowered, but so impure was the atmosphere that the flame was immediately extinguishél. A bundle of burning shavings, making a large, brilliant blaze, was then let-down, whichsucceeded in consuming the poisonous gases. The body, which had then been in the well about twenty minutes, was drawn up by means of a rope and hook—but too late. The last spark of life had fied. The remaing were brought here for interment the next day. o From a brother of the deceased, Mr. A. C. Stuck, of Van Wert, Ohio, who was in attendance at the, funeral, we learn that Frank Stuck was born in Dark county, ‘Ohio, June 2ist, 1845, and that he has a mother and three brothers residing in Van Wert, Ohio. Mr. Stuck came to Ligonier about two years ago and has since been in the employ of Mr: Kistler. :

BArNUM’S WORLD’S ' FAIR. — Bar‘will not visit our town this year, but will exhibit in South Bend, Tuesday, August 26th, giving three entertainments; morning, afternoon and night. Among the leading features on exhibitich are Prof. Faber’s .wonderful Talking-machine, which talks, laughs, and sings perfectly in all languages; the monster sea lions, wild Fiji cannibals, horse-riding goat, a rhinoceros as large as anAfrican elephant,livingeuriosities, mechanical bell ringers, deathbed -seene of Napoleon, besides hundreds of novelties we have not the time nor space to desrcribe. It is no wonder that people will go a hundred miles to see Barnum’s great exhibition, when such an unparalled array is presented for only fifty cents admission. ‘ X B e ” 'POSTAGE ON NEWSPAPERS.—ShouId a subscriber to a newspaper or periodical, who has paid one year’s postage in advance, remove within the delivery of another office before the expiration of a year, the postmaster should give him a receipt; the party should then mnotify the publisher to send his paper to the new office, Wwhere, upon presentation of the receipt; the postmaster must deliver the publication free for theremainder of the term paid for. : : ot L e e FIFTEEN MINUTES study of G. A. Ainsworth’s Musical Charts, ‘with explanations, will do fa» more to instruct one about the transposition of the Scale, and the matter of - Flats and Sharps, than will be gotten, ordinarily, in a much longer time. Every teacher and scholar should have them.: They are being received with great favor. They may be had at Dr, C. Palmiter’s, in this place, or by addressing G. A. Ainsworth; Millersburg, Ind. Price, twenty-five cents. - e

—The boys now have a fine chance for speculation. The Government makes an offer of five hundred dollais to the boy who will furnish it with a million caneelled postage stamps. —lt is a very bad plan to discourage those who engage in enterprises that are calculated to benefit the town by little annoyances that are insignificant in themselves and yet quite hurtful ‘when carried to extremes. i ' —Mr. Jonathan Simmons, jr., nightwatch of the L. S. & M. S. Railroad at Brimfield, last Friday morning fell.g the track and severely bruised lisul’% knee. Ie is under the necessity of using crutches, but expects soon to be able to regain the use of his limb. ' —Elder Harris, of the Christian denomination at this place, has been tendered the Professorship of the NorthWestern Christian University for the period of two years, but is impelled to decline the proposition in obedience to the wishes of his friends in this place. : b ~ —A mineral spring bas been discovered on the farm of John B. Pepple, one mile west of Albion. J udge Clapp is of opinion that this spring is equal to the celebrated magneti¢ springs of Michigan. Hope hemay be correct; we want a drink of these famous waters dreadfully bad, 4 :

—The wife of Edward Snyder, late a. resident of Allen township, Noble’ county, but more recently of Lagrange county, died a few days since of drop--By, aged 60 years. ‘lFer remains were buried near White Pigeon, the funeral services being conducted by Revds. Barnett and Steininger. —We are indebted to our friend, A. P. M. Henkel, for copies of California papers containing full accounts of the great land swindles perpetrated in that State by a ring of rascally politicians. The expose shows that fraud réigns supreme in the Golden State.— Mr. Henkel is at present sojourning at Vallejo, but we have not been able to learn whether he has engaged in ahy particular business, o —Our readers will bear in mind that our County Fair will be held' Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and’ Friday, September 23d, 24th, 25th, and 26th. We want to see the largest display of articles and the best attendance of visitors at this Fair that was ever witnessed in this county. The Premiums offered are very liberal, and those who enter articles will find everything arranged for their comfort and convenience. Gilvaaat

. TUKENDARTEVITER. : Some of our democratic editors in this State may find it quite difficult to harmonize their prophetic ideas with the result of the coming Ohio election. If those gentlemen would devote as much space to the dissemination of democratic principles as they do to the disorganization of the grand old party, its prospects would be ego%s “#he less -bright of victory.; Eh 'fél? ave the democratic pffi‘% cannot be disbanded with safety to this country, and no man is‘a true friend of his country who desires it. Its warm support of Horace Greeley should be sufficient ‘evidence to any Liberal Republican/of its virtue and objects, and there is no good reason why a’iil who are opposed to the present corrupt, administration of affairs should not manfully jein if. ~ The good looking and well '(lfesséj lady has left, but there is anotherse g ation coming up which proxnisés;"fi‘l%g; - Capt. - Iddings is = Grand-Father again. He scems to enjoy the advent of -those little fellows Liugely. J. R. Baker’s little daughter was buried on Sunday. While on a visit to her friends in Columbia City she was taken sick and died. Ten years ago Wash Greenfield sold his farm and personal property, amounting to $19,000, and with some spare money besides came to Kendallville and invested his.property in the mer¢antile busirkess. A few years sufficed to make him almost destitute, ‘and to-day he is living upon the charity of some of his old neighbors. An old man who is now dead saw the distressed condition of his old friend and purchased forty acres of land with good improvements thereon, and gave Mzr. Greenfield a life lease of the prop erty whieh 4vill make him comfortable. through the 1'¢111:\i11(1e1' of life.— That is charity indeed. 'Tl\;e boys are stealing apples, corn, and }gl'apes over in the east part of town and not only steal but .déstroy. The people are becoming considerably exasperated over the matter, and if some of the boys get hurt they must not complain, as there is no other remedy. . : There was a fearful row on Main’ street, last Saturday, ‘between a man and his wife. It became necessary for the officers of the law to interfere in order to suppress the fracas. In this case I would advise immediate separation. Such marriages were not made in heaven. e

Judge Clapp has been garnisheed.. _ L _E. Knisely, Esq., EdsMeagher and wife, Mr. Cornell and wife, Warrén Kime and wife, and ’Squire Banta—all of Ligonier—were seen on our streets carly last Tuesday morning. Johnny Weatherford died last Tuesday evening, after a long, severe illness. : : ! JOE. ELKHART TOWNSHIP. t < SUNNY SIDE, August 19. - The Baptist Association, east of Albion,last Friday, Saturday and Sunday, was a perfect success.! The ministers in atteni‘lqnce were Elders ‘Fawley, Buckles, Jackson, Taylor, McGowen, Thomas and Guthrie. The 'introductory and closing sermons were preached by Elder Fawley, of Kosciusko county. Four discourses were delivered each day besides those of the evenings. All seemed deeply interested and the best of order prevailed threughout thé entire meeting. = To accommodate the large audience that congregated on the Sabbath, the services were held in the grove.of Harvey Singrey. We noticed some of the legal fraternity of Albion, also the lon. H. C. Stanley and the editor of the Hra were in attendance. - Uncle Isaae Smith has consummated the “business” of which we hinted in our last. Mrs: T suecinda Holmes ‘was the woman of his choice. They were joined in the holy bonds of mats rimony on Sabbath morning, August 17th, by and at the residence of Elder Z.'Thomas. Quite a number of their brethren and friends witnessed the ceremony. We wish them much joy; may theirs be a life of peace, pleasure and happiness. g

Not wishing a controversy .with “Obscure” on a topic of so little impogtance, we will not waste time and pg:z' infshowing up his erroneous statements, but simply say to him: befote writing again read the Ten Commandments and profit -by the ninth. v L . We called at the BANNER office last Thursday to see the editor. We were informed by Mr. Sheffer that “Corpulente” was at home sick abed. - Feeling somewhat alarmed at this statement, we at once directed our steps toward his residenceste=learn what the matter was. We sooni gitood at the bedside of the prostrate man and anxiously inquired what the trouble was. His ‘wife being present, and thinking, no doubt, that it would be better for him not to worry, proceeded to answer our question. She said, “when he came to dinner he asked for *some: of that which brings cholera.’ ” " Thinking, of course, that his stomach would “digest a mill-stone,” she procured . for him the coveted vegetable. e, having the assurance of “Big-belly Ben,” overcharged his “inner man,” and the consequences were, he came. very near getting what he ealled for. Moral: They who can ’t eat mill-stones should not attempt fo digest “cockum’ers.” ‘ ‘ Nox~ Lisgr.

Whosoever unloaded the abominable filth at that particular place ought to be compelled to remove it or submit to a severe penalty.’ RuMBO. .

That Poll-Tax Decision---Indignant Card from Wm. Groh. To the Editor of-the National Banner: : - In your last issue I find y‘om‘ Kendallville correspondelnt, Joe Parker, has this item: i G “Thelate deeision of our Mayor in: the poll-tax suit will have the effect of making it more difficult than ever to collect that kind of tax in our community.” : : Now, Mr. Editor, what if it does? Must the law be_ disregarded and the rights of a certain class of citizens trampled upon in-order to make the revenue greater? Must money be unjustly filched from the pockets of those: not liable in order to please and_coax those to pay who are liable? Joe Parker may think so, but I am glad to know that there are not many Parkers and Judson Palmiters in our community, who, for some purpose unknown to the better portion of humanity, seem peculiarly constituted to keep up a bitter feeling in community by fighting over things .that do not correspond ' with their peculiar and one-sided views, law and justice to the ‘contrary notwithstanding. T I was the defendant in the casethat Joe Parker refers to. I proved to the satis_factic;n of the court, and everybody else i)resént, that gun-shot wounds received in the military service totally disabled me from performing manual labor, by reason of which I claimed exemption under the statute which requires such services only from able bodied ¢itizens. i

. No effort was made by the able and energetic arfitorney for the eity to prove that such disability did not exist, for the very reason that he knew that any such effort would only strehgthen my case. In view of these facts, how could the.Mayor find otherwise than in my favor? There is not an attorney in Kendallville, including the city prosecutor, but who says that the decision was correct. If there is, will Joe P‘arkerr please point him out? But this case was not eontested by me simply to avoid the 'payment of the little amount of road-fax which ‘was supposed by thé Street Commissioner to be due from me. It was for the benefit of several worthy disabled soldiers, who did not feel able to contest a case with the city. © Why will this decision malje it more difficult than ever to colleet thé poll-tax ? ; - It is Mr. Parker’s idea that all who are required by the Street Commissioner to work, whether crippled soldiers or men and women over fifty years of age, should be compelled to dé so, in order to make it easy to collect said tax. . It is fortunate for the people that they seldom think enough of such men as Parker to put them in positions where they can enforce their ridiculous notions. If Joe Parker had encountered hardships incident to the military service, :md had been wounded and crippled for life, like so many of the noble and brave soldiers, he might; perhaps, be able to comprehend the.wisdom of the law which exempts them. - But he belongs to that class who were as offensive and repulsive to the noble soldiers asa genuine Rebel, and I suppose his old hatred for the “Boys in Blue” still ‘rankles in his breasts, 4 S I am told that the road-tax in this place hasnever been collected up so well as it-has this year. The law is strietly enforced against all who are legally liable,.and we have no Parkers in authority t 6 disregard the law and trample upon human rights. : , ¥ WILLIAM GROH. Kendallville, Ind., August 15.

[So far as Mr. Groh’s defense of thé Mayor’s decision is concerned, we have not' a word of fault to find; but when he steps aside to assail our correspondent at Kendallville in the manner Ire does, we are constrained to be: lieve that he permitted himself to commit ‘an indiscretion which his better judgment ' will cause him some time to regret. There is absolutely nothing in the quotation which could be tortured into an attack upon the Mayor or any one else interested in the trial. “Joe” did not express an opinion-one way or the other—he simply stated that which must be apparent to all. 'As to “Joe” ever having felt a “hatred for the boys in blue,” that is all bosh. Zhat old cry is pretty effectually played out, and we are really surprised ' that a man who espoused the conciliatory teachings of the lamented Greeley so warmly as did Mr. Groh would consent to giving it paternity at this late day. The personal difficulties between Mr. Groh and “Joe” are of no concern to us: we know nothing ¢f their origin; but as a friend of both we'd advise them to obey the injunction of one whom they mutually admired—shake hands across the blosdless chasm;—Ep.
