P.

Rather steep.

—Michael Bause started on a busi‘ness trip to Ohio last Monday night. Mike is doing something in the line of agricultural implements. v —We are told that the school lyceum is grewing in/interest and that an effort will be made to continue the organization all winter. Why, net? ~-Those of our townsmen who have been led to believe Ehat free-masonry is leagued with his satanic majesty, will profit by going to Kann’s Hall tonight: / : j —OQur excellent friend, 1. P €rum, of Monroe, Mich., is here on a visit to his parents and numerouéfriends, and did us the hong)r of a pleasant ‘call vesterday. ‘ : —Nelson Prentiss, Esq., called in to see us on Tuesday. This was his first visit to our sanctum since, occupying the new building. Call ‘again and remain longer. - o = ~—Tlhe express oflice has been removed from the P. 0. building to the depot, to the great inconvenience of those who are compelled to patronize that institution. P - —The Hook and Ladder Company's oyster festival, on thg evening of the 27th inst., will doubtless be a splendid affair, as the “boys” are making every endeavor to render it a suecess. - —+The sessions of the Lyceum at this-place are growing more and more interesting. The young ladies and gentlemen comprising the same could not spend their evenings njore profitably. |

—The prospects of procuring the ministerial sexlvices of Rev. W. Keller for the several Lutheran congregations in this vidinity are not eonsidered very flattering, owing to the insufficiency of the promised support. —Gen. Custer, one of the BANNER boys who has been visiting friends in Huntington County during 'the past five weeks, returned to his post on Monday morning, much pleased with | his trip and the cordial reception everywhere extended him. S —Opysters, and many other delica¢ies will comprise the “bill of fare” at Kann’s Hall on Thau;isgiving evening. | Let pleasure-seekers, and others interested in having an efficient fire department, go and have a good time. ‘ Give the Company a lift. : | —After the dedication of the Lutheran church near Middlebury, Rev.C. Caskey i.xmugurﬁted a protracted meeting which continued two weeks.— Eleven aceessions, heads of families, were made. The membership of that church is now about fifty. 50 —lf any of the farmers in this vici‘nity have an abundance of corn-fodder and wish to dispose of a few loads at ‘reasonable figures, they will confer a favor by calling upon the editor of this paper, whose cow stands in greatneed of something of that kind. —From the Lagrange Standard we learn that two Granges have been organized in €learspring township. One, the Clearsping Grange, with John .J. Gillett, 'W. M., and Ira Ford, secreta~ ry; and the other, Dallag'Grange, with 1. S. Jones, W. M., and James Dallas, secretary. ' e

——Winter‘has charms and advantages, which'are hailed with delight even by lazy persons. For instance, worthless men who can lay around their houﬁes; jaw their wives, spank their children, and enjoy themselves splendidly, without even being disturbed by the flies. : _-——During the past two weeks we "have been sending bills fo a number of persons indebted to us for advertising, job printing, &c. Owur expenses “having been unusually heavy this year, we beg to remind the respective patties that we expect and earnestly solicit a promipt response. —Dr. Gants has, during the past 10 days, received orders for dental ~work from parties at Goshen, Waterloo, Pierceton, Rome City, Wolcottville and other distant localities, all of which goes to show that the Doctor enjoys a reputation for doing rhis work in the very best and most satis‘,factorys't’yl'gl_ G b : —llb is mcarcely necessary to call attention: to the priee-list- of Bill Groh in to-day’s issue of the BANNER. The people of the whole county are looking for its' appearance with great anxiety, and we shall be greatly - mis“taken if Bill's characteristic procla mation does not draw an iminensd crowd of people to his place of busi: ness. 1t s plainly to be seen that Bir s o é “g b’t& ‘, ake mwm‘ﬁy b

—From the Elkhart Review we learn * that Col. A. M. Tucker and J. Mc-.' Naughton have reduced the rent of 1 their buildings two dollars per month | to persons employed in the shops who have had their wages reduced. ‘This characteristic generosity on the part } of these gentlemen is no doubt appre- | ciated by their tenants. l

- —The Bryan Democrat contains this, to the Butlerites east of us, gratifying statement: “Edgerton is no longer the .hz'tlf-wa,y house on the Air Line Road. The completion of the Eel Rivér Road to Butler, and its connection with the L. S. & M. S. Road, makes that village the half-way house, and consequently the coal yards, smith shops, wheel tappers, ete.,, will be removed there after this: week.” | —Nelson Prentiss, Esq., of Albion, last Tuesday evening delivered|a lecture, :x’t‘ the Town Hall, before an appreciative audience—mostly students of the Normal School—in which he pnssmgtvd the “spirit of association” in & manner ix[dicut-ing considerable thought on his ‘subject. Many very suggestive ideas were presented,which,} if carefully noted, will furnish the intelligent student abundant food for thought. i S

—The wife of Horace Hollister died of congestion of the lungs last Friday, after a brief illness, at the age of fiftythree years. She had lived in this place for a number of years and was the mother of ,p‘lﬂl‘ge family, which she had the good fortune to see grow up respected men and women. The funeral services were held at the Disciple church on Sabbath; Elder J. E. Harris officiating, and was largely attended. The bereaved family and friends have the sympathy of ths entire community. : —ln the proceedings of the Whitley County Teachers Institute we read: “On Friday evening the Institute, through Revs. Reider and Studebaker, presented Rev. A. J. Douglas, our County ‘Superintendent, with an elegant gold-headed ecane and a copy of Rodwell’s Dictionary of Science. The cane bore the inscription—“ Rev. A.J. Douglas, from Whitley Co. Teachers’ Institute, 1873.” = As a surprise the presentation was a complete success, iand as a testimonial of love and -esteem, the trembling voice of the recipient indicated how deeply it was appreciated,” - :

—Again we are pained to chronicle the sudden death of an old and highly esteemed citizen of this county—Mr. James Skinner, of Jefferson township —who last Saturday fell to the ﬁoc}r! and expired almost instantly, without | any previous indication of ill health. Mr. Skinner came to this county while | the country was yet quite new and . was one of its oldestand best citizens. He was Judge Clapp’s father-in-law; an honest, high-toned and public-spir-ited gentleman. He will be greatly missed by his neighbors and a wide circle of friends who are thus left to mourn his sudden departure. —“Should teachers be paid according to the grade of their certificates ?” was the question discussed before the amateur lyceum of this place last Monday evening. The discussion was open to all and was participated in by Messrs. W. K. Sheffer, A. J. Yoder, D. P. Miller, C. L. Houseman and J. H./ loffman, speaking in the order in which they are named. The affirmative was evidently the more popular view of the question and some very good points were presented Dby its advocates, who strongly favored the wholésome practice of rigid examinations as an incentive to greater effort on the part of teachers and tending to elevate the standard of qualification. —Mr. Robert Luckey, of Washington township, last week laid upon our table a pear which deserves more than a passing notice. It weighed 19% ounces and measured over four inches in diameter; is of the Buerre Diel yvariety, a German pear of good standing, though inclined to be variable in size and quality, according to soil and cultivdtion. It isapt to be best dwarfed where the soil and tree are in agreement. We intended to keep the pear for the inslj'ecti(‘)m of fruit growers, but an irresistible anxiety to test its flavor overcame our original resolution. It was consumed on Sunday, iand served as a most delicious treat for three persons—ye humble editor, of course, included.

PREMATURE—For fear that politicians may “set the wires,” and nominate a candidate for’'Congress next year, the Steuben Republican rushes to the rescue of the people, and npmindtes Judge Frazier, of Warsaw. This is all very well; but the Republican should be very cautious in its movements. If the people, by any means, get the idea that it is “setting the wires” for the nomination, it might ruin!the chances of its candidate. Go slow.— Wuaterloo Press. !

And bear in mind, the Press might have added, that by virtue of an agreement “duly signed, sealed and delivered,” the Hop. John H. Baker, of Goshen, is to be the “coming man.” : ‘

Tue LaPorte Argus has the following: “It may not be generally known that State and County taxes can hereafter be paid in two installments. One-half must be / paid by the third Monday of April, including the whole of the road tax. The other half must be paid on or-before. the 15th of November. Should.any fail to pay the first installment by . the third Monday of Arpil, including the whole of the road tax, the whole amount of the tax becomes due by the 15th of November, with interest and penalty following its noil-pay_ment. Parties interested, should cmake a note of this change in the law.”

WHEN you visit Lagrange and, degire to stop at a public house, call at Brown's Hotel, 8. &’ . Dodge prorietor. Northern ‘lndiana does not afford a better house nor a more obliging landlord. The accommodations are firstclass and the charges always reasonable. -8o writes the editor of the South Bend Register, and we testify to the ‘correctness of what he says on this /point. e

OUR LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE. KENDALLVILLE: ; I see you have a correspondent from 4his place who takes some exceptions to the views expressed in my Norwalk letter.. He signs himself “Liberal,” but the trath is, he is not so very liberal after all, . He intimates that he will go along with us, providing we will disband our organization and come up under a new name, &c. Now suppose the masses of the democratic party oppose a disruption of the old organization, will- “Liberal” go back to the party of corruption and spoils ? or will he unite with the only men ‘who represent. hiis views of honesty and reform? I hope that “Liberal” will be liberal enough to let the majority govern, and not piace himself in a pesition that he cannot well get out of lam well satisfied that most of the Liberals will vote against Credit Mobilier, salary-grabbers, &ec., with the parfy having that for its object @s well as good government to all the people, whether that be the deniocratic party or some other crganization—and I shall e prepared to go with either. Can “Liberal” say as ‘much? . . :

The Methodist churcli is progressing finely-~ The brick work is nearly completed.

Wood comes in sparingly ‘and commands a high price. Small lgads bring two dollars. :

Ex-Judge Tousley was in our place last week, Heé does not feel just right over his defeat for the congressional nomination at th'e’lage republican convention held here. e thinks some men were not all they professed to be. I predict that Judge Tousley will be a caudidate at the next republican convention, and I know of no man who has a better right to be. | I see from a Chicago Spiritualist paper that Pole-cat Myers is called upon to put up his $l,OOO. Will 'he doit? "

‘ ELKHART TOWNSHIP. : Suxny Sipk, Nov. 10, 1873. EDITOR BANNER:~A few leisure moments éball be pledsant]ly employed in penning items for the BANNER. The past week has been one of magnificent fall weather; quite the reverse of the preceeding week. " The public schools in this township will all commence on the 17th inst. J. B. Smith will act as pedagogue for our district. 'We hope he may be successful in “teaching the young ideas how to shoot.” )

We feel somewhat amused overl “Obscure’s” last effort in the BANNER. Your readers will remember that his communication of several weeks agol was written from Dark Side. However, he drops that in his last. The term “Dark Side” certainly means, void of light. ®he-definition of obscurity is, want of light. Now, not having béel@, seen, even by “Obscure” himself—and he was at home all the afternoon—as he admits, we will leave the readers of the BANNER to judge, if we picked apples at his place at all, was it not in obscurity ? We are glad he still remembers the editor's apples. His adage does not apply to us, as we always fulfill every promise we make. Try again.’ The sale of Uncle Dick Billman, deceased, will take place next Friday; the 14th inst. It is expected that the attendance will be large, as Uncle Dick was widely known and universally respected; he leaves an amount of very desirable property to be disposed of to the highest bidder on ten months’ erédit. Knappenberger, the button-hole burster, will cry the sale. " Our old Baptist friends will hold a visitation meeting at our school-house on the fourth Saturday and Sunday of this month. Ministers and lay members from abroad are expected to be /in attendance. We take this opportu‘nity of informing our Baptist friends from a distance that Uncle Isaac Smith has lately started a Baptist tavern, only thre-quarters of a mile west of the meeting-house, where he will be pleased to bed and board, without money and without price, all who feel a desire to stop with him.

Mrs. Swank, -who is sick with typhoid fever, is conyalescing. - Bill Gage and John Bussing have each just finished a cellar under his house, into which they have already 10tled three or fpui* barrels of cider for winter use. After it ferments awhile we expect an invitation to go over and “drive away sorrow.” ; We are in for trading ideas with “Dale,” and will take a dish of oysters to boot. NONLIBET.

MILFORD, KOSCIUSKO COUNTY. FRIEND o STO‘I‘ZL:—;—Mr. Bell, our Merchant Tailor, was - heard to say not long since, that if the Indienign’s correspondent. from - Milford, umnder the name of ONE EYE OPEN, did not go a little more eareful, he would be compelled to change his name and substitute “Both eyes shut and front treth missing;” and I guess he means business. So, Densin, prepare.

I should be pleased to meet the BANNER correspondents at Ligonier, on the 20th, if circumstances would permit, but am sorry 'to say cannot be there, but my best wishes go with them and hoping they may enjoy themselves hugely if the oysters don’t. . pan L About a half dozen of our merchants have supplied themselves with coal st’ovf'zs and are using coal instead of wood, and express themselves very

well satisfied with the change, especially as it does not require as much change from their pockets; | : ~ We noticed our friend M. G. Zimmerman on our streets a few days sinee, looking as happy as a big sunflower.—Business, we suppose. Come again, IL G. U. B.ETT. About My Late Partner at Waterloo. Me. EplToßr :—I noticed in a recent issue of thée Waterloo Press a scurrilous item, written by a fellow evidently of German extraction; hence you must pardon me if I happen to spell Matt. Zarvis—his name as near as I can remember. This is what he savs:

“If it be true that I swindled: you, as you elaim, how comes ‘it that parties having claims against the society, send orders here to pay the same to Ben Barnhart for board, when 1 had no knowledge of their boarding at our cating-house? Oh, Ben!” - Being an equal pariner of this Matt. Zarvis in the eating-house husiness at the Waterloo Fair, it certainly looks strange that my share of -the milk bill alone’ should. ‘be $20.50, which, when doubled, would amount to $4l for ruilk. This would be sufficient to supply the customers of half a dozen such Fairs. 1t certainly looks strange, as M. Z. states, “that parties having claims against the society, send orders here to pay the same to Ben, Ba,mhart.” This is the first intimation I'have received that parties patronizing us held the society responsible for what they ate. ' i I am not the only one who. regards this same M, Z. as a swindler and a “dead-beat,” but others, even here, hayve informed me that he has refused to 'pay for numerous commercial commodities purchased from them. I herewith state that the society extended every gentlemanly courtesy to us, and that I feel grateful therefor. With “malice towards none, and charity for all,” I remain the admirer of the gentlemanly officers of the society for' their considerate deportment extended to us. BEN. BARNHART.

The B. & O. Railroad. ; C. B. Squire writes as follows.to the Adburn Courder: - DEFIANCE, 0., OcT. 27.-—The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company have partially suspended work for the winter, west of this point, probably owing to the pressure in the money market. They complain bitterly of the trouble in getting currency, claiming they have plenty of European| Exchange. I think one reason of the suspension was the uncordiality with which the company was received by the people along the line, they seeming to take delight in, throwing in the way of and embarrassing the work in every way possible. The work between Deshler on the Dayton & Michigan road and Defiance, has been partially suspended also, so that in fact I do not think they expect to reach Defiance. this winter, probably not before June next year, when it will probably be resumed all along the line.

- Tue Erie road loses $200,000 a year from employes and others who steal from the freight cars. Yes, 'and a great many people of this county lose a large sum of money by not buying their drugs and medicines of C. Eldred & Son, in the Ligonier P. O. building. These clever dealers always keep up a complete stock, and fill prescriptions to order. Trade with them; you will not regret it. x

The Elkhart Union tells a sweet story of Jake Myers, who felled a red oak tree last week, and took therefrom 156 pounds of honey. Four months previous 'to the cutting of the tree, a swarm of beesleft a hive belong ling Mr. Myers, and he followed them to the tree, and after seeing they were safely housed, left them totheir work. There was three feet up and down of the cavify filled with pure honey in the comb, and none of it was broken by the fall of the tree.

F. W. SHINKE & Bro. have just received a fresh'stock of fall and winter boots and shoes, which they are selling remarkably cheap. They have all the latest styles, and invite ladies and gentlemen to call and examine their stock of goods before purchasing elsewhere.. They warrant all goods as represented.
