It is too early yet for any of us to relish winter, but that season is not very distant-and it would be well for farmers and others not only to secure their fruit and vegetables, but also to lay in a good supply of wood and coal. .

The property had been purchased of W. T. Smith, and was insured in the American, of Chicago. ~ln the transfer no change was made in the insurance policy. Afterthe burning of the house Mr. Gallagher; brought suit for the insurance money and"obt’ained judgment. The Supreme Court has I'e¥ versed the decision.” | The Columbia City Post remarks upon this: 'y “That may be law, but we have our opinien, and.it is not a very ‘good. one, either, of a company who will refuse to pay a loss-upon a mere technicjlity.” - —At Elkhart there is a'general complaint of lack of feed for cattle. The ‘Review says that many’ farmers who wusually. sell butter are unable to make sufficient to supply their own tables, and have ‘become puichasers instead -of producers. This makes the article very high in thé market, and sometimes it is impossible to get it at any ‘price. “We also find it very difficult to ‘obtain good butter in this market, and prices rate high. But the apparent scarcity here is not attributed so much ‘to lack of feed—for J,tli’e ‘season has been favorable and there is an abundance of good pasture and seemingly no end'to the ‘supply of pumpkins—as to the fact-that the packers gather up nearly all the but¢er in the country, so that a very small portion of it is allowed to get into the hands of retailers. be SO W

‘* About Gambling. = To the Editor of the National Banner; | = - ' It is well known that you publish a good newspaper, which 'always‘ upholds the good and the true. Under these circumstances, we venture to make a few statements. We came to Ligonier last. Thursday, Oct. 14th, to take the train, when we heard a great tumult, more than half the noise being made by a set of gamblers who had established their wheel and other implements in the ' most ~public¢ and business part of the town, obstructing the street with an immense assemblage of, ~excitedfi people. Several young men were' selling’ numbers. printed on sticks, of wood, which they invited 6ld and ¥oung to buy, and make their piles' of wealth at once. We hesitated several times to speak, but finally broke out’in as loud andfirm a voice as ‘we could, and ordered the gamblers, in.the name of the State of Indiana, to stop their unlawful and i'mmoiral occupation. They partially oheyed and hesitated, because they knew well the Jaw might, if enforced, fine them five hundréd dollars. .

~ They plead their license from the town authorities, for which they had paid two dollars and a half, and were told that all that did not screen them from danger.in the least. We hunted up an officer, thinking e would help us to persuade them to stop, but he seemed to be in favor of the ganlb]ixlg, and told us that we made more disturbance than the gamblers. We then fln‘entened prosecution, told them we did not regaid their license to do an unlawful act as any protection. They finally put their things into sacks, and one Jf the young men, who sold numbers, headed us as we went south and he told us that they had quit,and would not gamble any more. We told him we were very glad, and that he could easily find better business. . *

All honor to the officers of the Fair that they did not allow gambling on the Fair grounds. If gambling must be done, we wish it might be in some obscure place where industrious and good citizens. do’ not go. - They might go to the marsh or swamp, where ]malmti_ous poison infects the air, and insects hum and bite, and larger reptiles eroak, or under some abandoned shed where voricious swine .delight. But in the business part of our beautiful market town, and at any of our Fairs they are’most discordant. - It is said that several of our church ‘members in good standing win and lose money by gambling, If this be sO, all the. worse ' for us, and there is greater cause for alarm. We have made these statements to. prevent false reports ar\ld.Slemdelj, and we hope we have said nothing in ‘malice. | . : ' O. KENT.~ |g e £ InmeNsE Stock of Fine, Medium, and Common Underwear, Neck-wear, Hosiery and Gloves at Engel & Co.’s at Kendallvile, at L.ow. Prices. That Su;;das' School C&u%en;ioh. To the Editor‘of The National Banner: g DEARSIR:—My article giving a very brief account of the late Sunddy School Convention of Noble County, held at Albion, has wakened up the editor of the Vew Era and induced him to give vent to the following bit of twaddle: “Now, we have only to remark that, whoever ‘Sunday School Teacher’ may be, it is perfectly plain °to all who have known anything' about the Sunday School cause in Noble eourty for ten years, that he or she who wrote that article is afilicted with a complication of loeal prejudigce, stupidity and Phariseeism, which mgtkes him or her blind alike to fact, justice and generosity.” : o

- Now,letus look at the facts as they .are, and then we will be able to’ discover who is blind, “Sunday School ‘ Teacher” or the editor of the New Era, When I simke of “the meagre F interest’ manifested by the citizens,” % I meant the majority, not every individual. There, .were a few, perhaps ‘ eight' or tén, noble sofils, who did no“bly and bore the burden of the convention, entertaining theldelegates to " theil entire satisfaction and gratificastion, and for which they received: a “vote of thanks by the tonyention. -But the interest manifested by alarge ma‘jority was very meagre; and for this - reason the convention adjourned one “day sooner than it otherwise would have done.. If we take the editor ofL the New Era asa fair 'éxample of the ; Albionites, we think there is abund~ant evidence to show their apathy in -the Sunday school cause. Innoticing ' what he is pleased to term an. “interesting and successful ¢onvention,” he devotes four lines to its praise, its grand work; while, in his succeeding issue, he ‘devotes twelve lines to a base ball” match at- Brimfield, thus making a game of ball three times as important as theCQunfy Sunday School ’ Convention. Again, in point of fact, it was not a successful convention, owing to the go-by it received from a ‘majority of Albion’s citizens. Tle Era further asserts that “Albion, one year with another for a decade, has ‘ been justly regarded gs among the foremost in this (Su_nda‘yschool),- as in other good works.” ‘lf Albion has justly merited such high mgafdin the ‘Sunday school work for the last decade, I fear she is now almost hopelessly fallen from grace.. Who gow seems ty be “blinded by local prejudice alike to fact, justice and generosity ?” Those who attended the convention can tell. -\q | . SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER.

HAWPATCH CHRONICLES, The -Sabbath-gchool pic-nic in Lepird’s grove was largely attended. The. schools représented were Burr Oak, Salem, Poplar Grove and North Union. The schools did some splendid singing. . The Millersburg Band also furnished fine music. The Rev. Mr. Thomas did not stop to pick up the limbs as he cut them down in his address, giving the miserable use of tobadeo and whisky their portion in due sja@'son. "We were reminded of what Paul said, in his epistle to the Thessalonians: to “abstain from all appearance of evil.” T ; The harvesting season being about over with, the farmers have received a fair average crop of wheat, oats, barley, corn and other crops.’ Jack Frost came a little too soon, however, for the corn, in consequence of which much of it remains soft and improperly .developed.

Potatoes are certainly a mammoth crop this year. I htard of one man ‘driving all through town endeavoring to sell a load, and was finally obliged to take fifteen cents-per bushel for them. ;Some of the Hawpatchers are inclined to think they may have an opportunity of selling their potatoes to laborers ‘on the Canada Southern Railroad next spring. There are a great nmgiy to dig yet, and I 'am afraid there will be some cold fingers before they are’all out. Aol Edenl township was "expecting a Morrell-Rowe last Court, but for some cause the, case failed to ‘come off.” I think some of them will feel “so-so” before the close of next Court. We would like to hear from our friend, R. L. Curl; oceasionally through the columns of THE BANNER. The general health is very good in the Hawpatch. Speck Bevy is all right.

In 1820 Mr. Ward left his native home and removed to Ashtabula county, 0., where he bought land and cleared up a farm, and lived there until 1861. In October of that year he again pulled up stakes and came to Noble county, to live with his son; John H. Ward. In religion, Mr. ‘Ward was a liberal thinker. = “Deal justly with your fellow men, and all will be well,” was the watchword of his-faith. Politically, he was an ardent Republican, never failing to attend an election, and was the oldest voter in Sparta township. During thie past fourteen years Father Ward was recognized as the Grand-pa of the neighborhoed. He always had .a ,kind'wovrd and a pleasant look for every one, visiting his neighbors once a year, until old age and the loss of his eye-sight confined him to his room, there to wait until his spirit was summoned up higher.. i SR After a very i‘mpress_ive f_uner‘ai distourse by Eld¢ér Growves, the remains of Grand-pa Ward were consigned ‘to their last resting place in the E;tgle Lake Cemetery, whence they were followed by a large concourse of relatives and friends.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN WHITLEY COUNTY.—A daughter of Abraham Pence, who lives some five or six miles north-east of Columbia City, met with a terrible accident on Sun: day, which caused intense suffering until Tuesday morning, when. death relieved her. She was about 17 years of age, and had been subject to fits since ten vears old, brought on by severe sickness—her mind was almost entirely gone. Her father, as we understand it, )had been called to see his brother, ‘who was lying at the point of death—and whose death is recorded elsewhere—leaving the girl alone with “her mother. Duty called the mother out of the.room. for awhile, leaving the girl alone. Mrs. Pence was out of the room but a short time, when the cries of the girl called hér in. Imagine her horror, when she discovered her enveloped in flames. Mrs, Pence immediately.set to work to tear the clothing from the body of the girl; but shé was so badly burned that she was beyond medical aid which was summoned as quickly as possible. She was in the habit of playing with matches and it is supposed .that during -the few minutes that she was left alone, she had ignited a match which set fire to her clothing with the result above mentioned.— Mrs. Pence had all she could do to keep the house from' taking fire and her ‘hands were very badly burned .while tearing the clothes from the body of the unfortunate girl. The deceased was a more than ordinarily bright and intelligent girl, until she was/ stricken with the disease which caused: her dementation; -— Commerctal, October 14. .
