—From the. Elkhart Observer we learn that Rev. J. I Hutchinson of that place has been chosen Grand Chaplain of the Royal Arch Masons of ]vndi:u;;}*.' The old gehtleman is deserving of the honor. —Farmers are realizing more for their hogs ‘mow than ever before.— “There was g\"iix’n(z during the war when _prices ranged higher, but at that time : the three dollars in greenbacks were . only worth one in go‘.(i. - ‘ ! | —Experiments recently made in England indicate that wagons are most easily drawn on all kinds of roads when the fore and hind wheels are of the same height and the pole lies lower than the axle. | ' —Thanksgiving services will be held on the 26th inst, ‘in the morning at 1014 o'clock, at the Disciple Chureh; ‘sermon by Rev.

—Thd Elkhart Review, of Monday, says: “Rev. J. IL. Hutchinson’s well was agdin kerosened. last night, by some pusillanimous wretch, while the family were at church. Itisa pity that the misereant- who is guilty of these outrages cannot be cmight.” —During this extremely dry season, when all the wells and cisterns are either dry or very lOW,'_oulj citizens should exercise the utmost care about fires. Buildings, if ofice on fire, would now burn like tinder and there would be but little chance of saving them. —The races of the Lagrange County.

" —An drticle clipped from the Monday’s Chicago Times imparts the important information that the Canada Southern Railway is likely to be completed the coming year. Of course we are still s_:mguiné that the Ligoniex route will yet be adopted. - ~-The Benton. Harbor Palladinm gives the editress and lecturess of the Elkhart Observer a “tremendous” puff. It declares that Mys. Molloy “in pathos dnd dramatic power” stands second only to John B.

—There was a tie in the vote for Treasurer of Steuben county at the October election. Each of the two Qppzfsing candidates received 1,278 votes: A new election must therefore be held, and Governor Hendricks has issued an order for a special election in that county, to be held on the 23d inst., for the eleetion of a County Treasurer. :

. —Unele David Fry, of Elkhart county, appeared in-our sanetum on Tuesday, his eranium handsomely, decorated with a Greeley hat—a relic¢ of 1872.

Campbell informs the Owen County Journal that cssence of logwood, or the simple logwood, will eure chicken cholera in any stage of sznt:,dis.euse.' It is a cheap and simpl¢ remedy, and can be administered in the feed or water, unless the chicken is too far gone to eéat or drink, in which case they mustbe ganght and forced to take the medicine.

—The contract for the building of the new bridge over the Elkhart river ab this place was last Thursday awarded to the Smith Truss Bridge Company, of Toledo. These gentlemen enjoy an enviable reputation for the superiority of their bridges, and that is the kindof bridge our ecitizens want here. The work will be commenced in a few days ,:1}1(1 will be rapidly pushed to its completion.s = - ~We regret to learn that, after all, the repair shops of the B. & O. road are not to be located at Albion. The company has concluded to locate these shops at Altoona, a station about midway between Auburn and Avilla. [ It is 1‘(}1)01‘("0(1 that an in{iiumtiul official of the road, who owneés a large i(ra‘ct; of land at that point, has brought about this decision. Tlie citizens of Auburn made strong exertions to secure thdse shops, but all in vain. N —“Song Monarch” is the suggestive title of a new song book just received and for sale by John H, Hoffman at the News Room. It is a collection of secular and sacred music and is well ‘adapted to the use of singing schools, day schools, conventions, academied, college choirs and the home circle— John has devoted a good deal of htten—_ tion to musie, in b9tll town and country, and understands the wants of the times in this particular, The price of the “Song Monarelh” is 75 els,, or $7.50 per dozen. v L —A writer in Serébner's Monthly thinks that the much-used expression, “Excuse my glove,” when pffering the hand, is an absurd and altogether mistaken form -of politeness. There is no impropriety in wearing gloves, and there cannot be any in offering the hand with one on. It would be just as reasonable to say’ excuse my coat or boots. The writer’s views suit us exactly. We don’t often wear gloves, but when we do, no “pulling off” need be expected before presénting the ‘hand for a *shake.” Whatever you recognize as a popular folly, treatas a folly. That's ot motte. ..

-—Asg some of our people do not seém to comprehend the meaning of the term “local enterprise,” we give the definition, hoping it will specially enlighten the class who have heretofore been obtuse as to its proper meaning. If you can think of anything that can be done to beautify or build up your town, go and do it; don’t fight the laying down of a new sidewalk, because you have to pay a share of. the expense; keep your capital at home; patronize home industry; help your merchants to sell more so that they will sell cheaper; always get your work done in your own town, if possible; subserilie and pay for your local paper; don’t steal or borrow the reading of it. If you follow these directions, and your town does not Improve and build up, it will pot be your fault, ' i

SENATOR CARL SCHURZ AT : GOSHEN. =

| Senator Carl Schurz will deliver a lecture in the Court House at Goshen, " upon /tfx.é subject of "Edncational ; Problems,” on ' . Wednesday Eve., Nov. 18, 1874, ' This will be a rare opportunity for the people of this vicinity to go and hear this eloquent and accomplished statesman. - Parties can leave here at ' 3:10 in the afternoon and return by the I_light Express, which arrives here at 10:43, as the lectu"rer is trz,welihg east and will pass through this place on that train. . ; L : Columbia City ltems. - Quite an accident occurred here oneday last week. Mr. Ulerich, a butcher residing on the south side of Blne‘ river, has been confined to his bed for . some time, having had his leg broken | in two places. He was just getting able to be around ‘a little, and while riding out with his son his horses ran’ away with him and his leg was broken over'again in one of the places which had been broken before. It is reported ‘that one of his ribs was also broken. - His horses have run away with him several times, and I understand it wasin this way he received -his first injury. He will no doubt lose his leg, and: the chances are. against his getting well at all. Tle indeed deserves to be pitied.: ’ _Mr. Snyder, the proprietor of the Tremont House, died last }\'o(4‘:{, of consumption, after a lingering sick-i ness. L ’ -

The Blue river tribe of Red Men will give a ball at Central llall on the 17th inse . , © The Hook and Ladder Company of this place purpeses giving a grand Christmas ball. - - ’ Speaking of Hook and Ladder Companies, we have some fellows that can climb.

A woman has recently made her appearance in LaPorte, South Bend, and various other localities’ west of us, who handles counterfeit money and plays the role of “sharper” generally. She “done” South Bend one day last week and, according to the Z7ibune, succeeded in passing two or three counterfeit twenty-dollar greenbacks upon their merchants, getting rather more than half the amount in good money and the balance in goods. She seemed to be about t'hiifty-ﬁve years of age and had the appearance of a plain country woman. At one place she asked for shoes for her children, but on second thought said she guessed she would have to wait until another dn‘y and bring them in, as she Itad forgotten to take their measure. Of course theidealer urged her to take the shoes along at the thi".e, and return them if they were not a fit. IFe is’:conﬁ(lent there will be no difficulty about the “fit.” The fraud was deteeted only a few minutes after its perpetration, but the search for her, which was hastily instituted, proved unavailing. She doubtless had a confederate, who spirited her and her booty away in a carriage. All of the depots were watched; but she did not visit them. '

’ Kigonier oy E‘;‘ll:;}ture Company. About ten days ago this Company was formally 01‘g'an'ized by the election of minedirectors, consisting of Messrs. Dr. A. Gants, Levi Diller, Finley Beazel,!J. E, Braden, J. C. Zimmerman, John Weir, Jz\rViS Peck, A. S. Fisher and J. B. Stoll. This Board of Directors subsequently elected the following named gentlemen as its officers: .J. C. Zimmerman, President; Jarvis: Peck, Vice President; John Weir, Secretary; Finley Beazel, Treasurer. Mr. D. M. Reynolds, who is to be general manager, has already purchased a .portion of the machinery and last Monday started for Grand Rapids to purchase t‘x_e other. Orders for toy furniture arrive almost daily, and it is confidently believed that the company will do a flourishing business. - The capital stock of the company is, for the present, fixed at $3,000, all the shares subscribed. An inerease to $5,000 will probably be made in a short time. _ - . - Ligonier Park Associatiocn. ~ The stockholders of the Ligonier Park Association are hereby requested to meet at the office of the Secretary, at Ligonier, on Saturday, Nov. 21, '74, at 1 o’clock p. ~ for the purpose of determining by vote which of the several tiacts of land are to be purchased for a Fair Ground. A full attendance is earnestly requested. ' oh. J. B. STOLL, Pres’t. D, W. GREEN;Bec'y. ' To My Eriends and Customers.

During the last nine months there has been a falling off in the emigration to th“i‘s"country of 105,684 persons as compared with the preceeding nine months of 1873. The “pauper laborers” of Europe we hear so much about are not so badly off as the poor laborers of America, and prefer staying at home to coming to the land of the free and the home of the brave. Such a condition of affairs never occurred during eighty years of almost uninterrupted - democratic administration which made America a land of promise for the people of all other civilized natimﬁs‘;. ; v : i -

l The Canada Southera Railway. i [From the Chicago Times.] o ~This promising road,—surveyed and | partially completed so as to. shorten the distance hetween Chicago and | Buffalo over fifty miles,—which has been in a semi-paralyzed condition since the panic of 1873, now gives evidences of remarkable vitality. ILast year its bankers, Kenyon, Cox & Co., “went under, amid the general crash of New York railway negotiating firms. §mce then overtures have been made to the Canada Southern company by several distinguished firms, including the Erie & New York Central ‘directories. . But the influential directors of the Southern road, Messrs. Dillou, Courtright, Tracy, Scott, and Casement, have steadfastly adhered to ’.then‘ original plan of completing and operating one of the shortest and cheapest railroads between Chicago and Buffalo. The money to finish the road from TFayette, Ohio, to Chicago, 180 miles, has been guarditeed several | times, but the parties making offers always reserved to themselves extravagant and dangerous privileges. . At last, hqwever, it is reperted that a lib-eral-minded ang enterprising citizen of New York has undertaken to bring the Canada Southern to Chicago. {X { proposition submitted by Cyrus W. Field to the Canada Southern directory has been conditionally accepted; Mr. Field on his part guaranteeing $3,500,000 cash as the estilgmted cost of the extention from Fayette to Chicago. Mr. Field will probably be- associated with A. Lawrence lopkins, once an active vice president of the Illinois Central. Both these gentlemen are well known in English stock ‘speculating circles, and as the Canada Southern has an English colonial charter—with all its guarantees to stockholders—there is not the slightest doubt but that the money will be raised. Mr., Field has asked until December 25th to complete his negotiations. . - . On the first of November the Can“ada Southern expected to run its own sleeping cars between Chicago and - Buffalo, over the Michigan Central to Grand Trunk junction; but on that ~date the Pullman Car company interposed its veto., It oceurs that the 1 Michigan Central could not haul a Canada Southern sleeper without the consent of the Great Western of Canada, a rival line. = The Pullman com- | pany hadieither to give up the Great Western or refuse the Canada Southern. » ‘ T —‘_o.’--»--—“»»4——» | . Reform in Grain Shipments. : ~ The Indianapolis Sentinel says Baltimore is exerting herself to divert the heavy grain shipments which are anticipated:the coming winter to that city, and New Yorkis proportionately alarmed. The ageney by which this is to be accomplished is the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which proposes to do what has long been desired by shippers of grain. The company will give with their bills of lading a receipt for the amount of grain shipped, and guarantee its full delivery in Bal‘timore.- In attémpting this advanced step in grain transportation, the company will have the earnest co-opera-tion of the Ballimore merchants and also the Board of Trade of Chicago, which has already pledged its oflicial support to the moyement. . The New York [Bulieti i considers the arrangement to be a dertainty, and sounds the note of alarm to the merchants of that city, urging immediate exertions to secure ‘like advantageous terms from other great. trunk lines which feed the trade of that city. We agree with the Senfinel that it is of secondary cogreetn to the West what line or lines shall extend té us this advantage, or what city on the seaboard shall reap the resulting benefits. But it is of the first importanee that this reformation be. accomplished, and the enterprise of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad in starting it is worthy of the highest admiration. ' Wheréver their connections touch, the effect on they market and trade will be very great.

A well-to-do :trmer,r()f Grant county, who lives six miles south of Marion,near Jonesboro, brou g“.xth 50 bushels of wheat' to this city, one day this week, and sold it for eleven cents more on the bushel than he could get at either Jonesborq or Marion. lle left one hundred dollars of his wheat money at one house in this city for winter goods. He knew where he could get the most for his wheat, and where he could buy the cheapest coods for tlle »m'[on(-?y, and, of course, came to Wahash.— Wabash Free Trader. - -

~ This shows what enterprising and live merchants can do toward maintaining trade at an established peint. ‘A sharp look-out and a liberal application of printer’s ink have a telling effect. . -

STAND UP,; Charley Murray, and be honest and truthful for just a few moments: Is it not a fact that you are “mad” . becawse we would n’t allow you to force a full-fledged Radical in the person of Judge Clapp upon the Democratic-Liberal congressional ticket? You are a pretty bird to talk about “trading rnd truckling politicians!” Why, you gray old sinner, if it wasn’t for “trade and truek,” polities would long since have been abandoned byyou, . |

ON the 9th Inst. Joseph Medill vesumed the editorial management of the Chicago, I'ribune, with the announcement that it would henceforth be an independent republican paper.

ATTORNEY -GENERAL DENNY vacated the office whiech he held during the past two ygars, on Friday. He is succeeded by Ylbn. Clarence A. Buskirk, & young man of bright intellect. Mr. Denny is generally aceredited with having been a watehful, energetic and faithful officer.

Tae Winamac Democrat objects to the election of Judge ITolman for U. S. Senator. It wants him kept nearer at home, to take the unanimous nomination of the Democracy for Governor twol Lears hence. Well, we consent; though if the Judge really wants to go to the Senate, we think there ought not to be any obstacles thrown in higway. o o i

WneN Charley Murray insinuates or asserts that the editor of the BANNER was at any time duriﬁg the late campaign in couneil with Baker’s friends, he but adds:another lie to the one dished up a few months since when he attributed Baker’s nomination to onr exertions, . ;

- —-From the Steuben Republican we clip the following: “Mr.J, B. Kimball, ) of Kendallville, met with a severe accident last Thursday, about one mile ' west of Angola. e was driving a | rather fiery team which took firight ‘and started ito run. The carriage struck a tree which was ifery close to § the track, and in the crash Mr. Kimball was thrown violently against it, f badly bruising his side and leg. It was almost miraculous that he .was not killed outright, but by singular fortune 10 hones were broken. -He will not, however, be likely to recover from his bruises for some time, By the aid of crutches he was able to be out of doors on Friday, and we understand that he left for home on Saturday.
