THE recent prize fight between John L. Sullivan and Jake Kilrain produced one good result—it afforded decent people an occasion for expressing their abhorrence of that brutal ‘sport.” The regretful feature of that occurrence is that the contestants did not completely use themselves up. -~

THaE DOCTORS are substantially agreed among themselves that while it is not within the possibilities of medical science to make the old young, there is such a thing as-prolonging life by taking proper care of the human body and observing certain rules laid down by skilled medical men. The essential point is that man should learn to know himself:

THE Prohibitionists of New York haye the good sense to declare that it would be the hight of folly to urge a popular vote on the subject of a prohibitory amendmept to the constitution. They freely admit that Massachusetts and Pennsylyania have given the prohibition theory a staggering blow. and that some time will be required to recover from the shock.

THE Indianapolis' Sentinel charges that the editorial matter appearing in the Indianapolis Journal on the subject of the school-book law in this state, is paid for at a high rate by the school-book ring that has grown immensely rich by its long-continued extortions. The Journal makes a very feeble attempt at denial by resorting to the old method of invoking the kettle to call the pot black. s

THE estate of the late Gen. Simon Cameron figures up about $1,700,000. The general belief has been that Cameron was worth at least ten millions. If he had desired to worry with that amount he could easily have accumulated it. But he was too sensible a man to take upon himself unnecessary burdens, so he quit years ago adding to his wealth. He knew he had more than he needed, and wisely gave himself up to the enjoyment of life, unhampered by business cares.. B

That's the reason why the rascals who are at the head of these snide concerns make their strongest efforts in distant localities. Before many years roll around there will be a crash that will wipe out these fraudulent institutions. The indications unerringly point in that direction. The mext legislature will be forced by public sentiment to enact laws that will removethis crime-beget-ting curse from our state, just ‘as Michigan did. But full justice will not be meted out unless the primeé movers in grayeyard “insurance’’ are put behind the bars. o At

A CONTEMPORARY thinks the late Simon Cameron never uttered a more expressive sentence than when, speaking of his son’s and his own opportunities, he remarked: ‘Yes, Don has grand opportunities that I did not have; but I had poverty which Don has not.” Poverty has made a hundred great men to every single one made by wealth. The father who fills the pocket-book of his boy in college offers a premium for ‘‘wild oats,” and nine times in ten will be disappointed when harvest time is reached. That boy has but a limited conception of the value of money. The true conception is gained only by those who earn monqy by hard labor.

‘RECENT developments go to show that Senator Washburn, of Minnesota, instead of being ten times a millionaire, is worth about $400,000. He has been a hard worker for years, and has done much for the growth and development of Minneapolis and Minnesota. During the past year he encountered financial difficulties . that taxed his energy and financial ability to the utmost. True friends came to his relief with ready cash, else his fine estate would have been swept away. He is now taking much needed rest in Europe, his business interests haying been turned over to other persons.

AS TO CROWS.

. It has long been a djsputed question among farmers ornitholigists and others interested as to whether the good outbalanced the harm done by crows. A division of the department of agriculture has taken the matter up and the first report gives the following conclusions: 1. Crows seriously damage the corn crop and injure other grain usually to a less extent. . 2. They damage other farm arops to some extent and frequently do much mischief. ' 3. They are very destructive to the eggs and young of domesticated fowl. 4. They do incalculable damage to the efi‘gs and young of native birds. 5. They do much harm by the distribution of seeds of poison ivy, poison sumach, and perhaps other noxious plants. 6. Thev do muech harm, by the destruction of beneficial insects. -

" 7. They do much good by the destruction of injurious insects. 8. They are largely beneticial through their destruction of mice and dther rodents.

- 9. They are valuable occasionally as scavengers. til e

To this is added ‘‘the careful examination of the large number of stomachs, and the critical study of the insect food of the crow, may change materially the present aspect of the question; but so far as the facts at present known enable . a judgment to be formed, the harm which crows do appears to far outweigh the good.

GROWING YOUNGER.

An observant writer—sorry we do not know his name—reaches conclusions that cannot be otherwise than comforting to the average man and woman. Year by year, he says, as the ‘world grows older, people seem to grow younger in their ways of living, thinking and dressing. At one time a lyoung woman of twenty-five had turned the dreadful fate of old maidenhood. At thirty the married woman put on caps, at forty she was elderly. 'Sixty she was considered a great age, and those who lived beyond that age were considered superannuated. Even ‘men- suffered from the disadvantageous belief in years which—at one time prevailed. If at fifty he had not either made His mark in the world or his fortune there was no hope for him but to retire from active life, and passively await the call of the grim reaper. But at the present day the matter of years is considered as nothing in the struggles and aims of existence. Young thoughts triumph oyer the burden of years, and few stop to. coasider their age when starting out in a new enterprise in which all their interests are centered. It is a good thing to forget birthdays and anniversaries, then no one is reminded of the flight of time or tempted to believe himself old. People have not as yet arrived at that state of perfection in which they need ‘not die, but everyone can be young in ‘heart until the days of their death and find new pleasures in life and living. The well-worn saying that $t is a difficult 'thing to tell a woman's age, only goes to prove that women are not prone to give themselves up to the tyranny of time. It does notpay one’s self to grow old. A belief 1n everlast‘ing youth keéps at bay crow’s feet and wrinkles, and the outward appearance has much to do with the inner con-l sciousness. Persisting in béing youthful, wards off the aches and pains of old age, each day seems brighter than tbe, one that preceded it, and ‘“Merry goes the time when the heart isyoung.”’

NO SECOND TERM.

Senator Washburn, of Minnesota, has heard a prominent gentleman say there will not, in the next hundred yoars, be another president re-nomin-ated and re-elected. TmE BANNER joins an esteemed contemporary in expressing the hope that the gentleman is correet in his prediction. 'One of the evils of our political system is that which permits a president to become a candidate for re-election. It has been an evil from the beginning, and will be an evil if it shall continue. The evil is being illustrated today and will be for the next three years. It is doubted that president Harrison has made, or will make a single appointment to office without oonsidering its bearing on his re-nomination and probabie election. His policy will be shaped ‘with the view to getting asecond term. In all that he does he will have in mind the convention of his party in 1892, and how best to influence and control that gathering will be a constant study with him., General. Harrison is not to be censured for this. They &ll do it. It is the custom. It is expected. President Cleveland set out to make a departure from theusual course, but he bad to fall into line, the prize being too great for him to ignore it.

eligible to re-election. Then the chief magistrate of the nation would devote himself to the making of a good record, knowing that the cup of his ambition was full. He would not give up to political scheming time and attention which belonged to the nation. His appointments to office would not be made with a view to the good the appointees could do him in a nominating convention, and his acts - and utterances would not be regulated by their bearing on his aspirations to a second term. It is not probable that the remedy for the evil will come through an amendment to the law declaring the neligibility sore-election of the president, but the people can control in this mattet as they did when a third term was asked. They can refuse to re-elect, and in that way establish a custom which will be as eifectual as a statue.

INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY,

Following is a little temperance sermon by H. E. Wadsworth, of the LaPorte Argus, which we think will be read - with interest and pleasure by many of his friends in this county, his former home: “‘When temperance extremists begin to act more‘rational,” he says, ‘and hold the man that gets drunk personally responsible for his acts, the same as they now hold women responsible for their vices, there will be far less drunkenness in this yain world than there now is. The maudlin sympathy and silly gush about the ‘inherent weakness’ of the man who gets drunk, and the awful sin of the man who tempts him, does more to encourage drunkenness than almost anything else that is done. There isa large class of people who grow fat doing the martyr act, and enjoy being petted and sympathized with because of an aileged weakness. To have their sins thrown on the shoulders of others is exactly what they want. If a woman errs she is unsparingly condemned and held personally to the most rigid accountability for her acts. Tempters are not responsible for her vices. Why should a man not be €|eld accountable for getting drunk the same as a womawg would be? Can anybody tell? 1f a man steals a horse he is held responsible for it, and no one thinks ot blaming the people who own horses for tempting him to commit the sin, but if a man gets whisky unlawfully there is a class of people who hold the owner of the whisky chiefly responsible tor the violation of the law. The law recognizes whisky as property, the same as it does a horse, and whisky is used for a thousand things besides drinking, the same as horses are used for thousands of things besides for gambling purposes on the race track. ‘Why make fish of one and flesh of the }other? The facts are, it tends directly to take all the individuality, strengt‘h‘ of character, and true manhood out of any man to temporize with his weaknesses, and to blame others for his shortcomings. No man was ever permanently reformed by such a doectrine. It takes self-reliance and independence of character to make a robust and true man, and anything that educates men to the contrary not only weakens them but it weakens the race, and does incaledlable harm to future generations. ‘When society holds each individual to a just responsibility for his individual acts, each will be far more careful what he does, and the restraining influence in the aggregate will be immense in its power.”’ .

The School Book Law.

The county superintendents of the state are being notified, according to the Indianapolis News, that they must now give an additional bond to the commissioners of their respective counties, as required by the text-book law. The bond to be given 1s $lOO for each oune thousand inhabitants of a county. The superintendents have a month, after Governor Hovey issues his ‘proelamation declaring the law in force, in which to file their bonds. A great many people, it seems, have misinterpreted the exchange proposition in the bid of the Indiana School-Book Company. The exchange prices named are not the amounts at which the old books are valued, but the new ones. For instance, the price of a complete new geography 1s 75 cents; if the old book (which has been costing $1) is exchanged, the new book will cost 74 cents. Instead of the new books cost-. ing from one to five cents, where exchanges are made, but! from one to five cents will be allowed for the old books by the company. -

Noble' County Normal School

Opens at Albion, July 22, 1889, and continues in session six weeks. Some of the reasons why the teachers of Noble county should patronize this school: . i

1, The instruction. will be specially adapted to the wants of the teachers and schogls of this county. 2. Expenses will be less than in any school of equal proficiency located at a greater distance, 3. 'The county superinténdent resides at Albion, and can give valuable ‘suggestions to those in attendance. - Albion is a quiet town, centrally located, where there will be yery little to call the attention from study.” 5. No other school of the kind can do as much toward advancing the welfare of the Noble county schools. For particulars, address for the present, ! AMBROSE BLUNT, Ligonier, Ind. AMBROSE BLUNT AND WM. J.

DIVIDED UNITED BRETHREN.

The Story of the Rupture at Dublin.—His- + tory of the Division. : AT ; [Special to the Indianapolis News;]

DusLiN, July B.—Seyeral weeks ago a short account was sent to the News of the trouble which had arisen in the United Brethren church, which denomination has a large following in this community, and a statement of the conditions leading to this u‘nfortunate‘ rupture will be found of general interest. In 1752 Rev. William Otterbein, a distinguished German Reformed minister, emigrated to America, and soon after his arrival he became convinced of the necessity of a more powerful religion of the heart than he had ever felt before. About this time he became associated with two German ministers of like faith, named Boehm and Geeting, and Otterbein and his friends were called German Methodists, because they believed in much of the practice and faith of Wesley's followers. From this small beginning their numbers rapidly increased and numerous societies were formed in Maryland, Pennsylvania and. Virginia; conferences were established for perpetuating and extending their intluence, the annual: meetings beginning at Baltimmore in 1789, and in 1800 they took upon themselves the name of the ‘‘United Brethren in Christ,”’ and elected Otterbein and Boehn as Bishops. At this time \their followers included Presbyterians, ‘German Reformed, Mennonites, Lutherans, a few Methodists and others, and it became necessary to establish a system or discipline of faith. A conference looking to this was held in 1815 at Mt. Pleasant, Pa., and the plan of church government, as agreed upon, provided fog a general conference every four years, also annual and quarterly ‘conferences similar to those of the Methodist church. The delegates to the general conference were elected by the laity, as also the ministers composing the annual conferences. In the confession of faith were specified a number of things which were regarded as evils, as they were then termed and still exist, and among things condemned were Free Masonry and all secret societies. Slayery was also forbidden, as well as drunkenness and the manufacture and sale of ardent spirits, and the penalty for non-observance was excommunication. Thas was the church organized at that time, and in its system of faith many became fixed as firmly as the Rock of Gibraltar. ~ In the course of time, however, changes and dissensions began invad‘ing the church, and discord showed itselff. The present constitution was adopted in 1837, and was more fully ravified in 1841, since which time the denomination has spread and flourished like its sister churches. Some years ago, however, in some of thechurches, members were admitted who belonged to secret societies,. but no definite action was taken about the matter, although it’'was a yiolation of the requirements of the constitution, and of the discipline, until a short time previous to the general conference which met in Fostoria, 0., in 1885. Here the trouble culminated. Previous to this, and for some time, the Telescope, published lat Dayton, and the main organ of the church, went over to what is now called the ‘‘Liberals,’”’ and in doing so it was backed by quite a number of the influential lights of the church, and through this influence an agreement was reached looking to a change in the constitution and the discipline of the church. The Board of Bishops at vhis conference concurred in so far as to appoint a committee on the revision, and this committee afterwards agreed upon a plan to select a ‘commission; the same having the pow‘er to amend the constitution and sub‘mit such amendments to the people for rejection or raufication. .

1t was here that the entering wedge was driyen, which has resulted in severing the church organization, that had stood firmly and harmoniously together for nearly one hundred years. The ‘‘Radicals’’ claimed that this commission was unconstitutional, and that its every act was in -direct antagonism to the plain and pointed discipline of the church. Among the g.mendments proposed at the Generdl Conference in 1885, was one giving members of secret societies the right of church fellowship, the same as if they did not belong to such societies, and pending‘ the cenference, which was held at York, Pa., in May last, this amehd-l mendment was submitted to the laity for approval or rejection. The ‘‘Radicals’’ claimed that as the amendment was sprung upon them unconstitutionally, they were in no way bound to recognize it, and hence they refrained from voting, consequently the ‘Liberalg’” secured two-thirds of the votes cast. t

The church membership is estimated at 209,000, while only something like 65,000 votes were cast, of which nearly 50,000 favored the amendment. Since that conference open hostility has declared itself, and there has been a gen‘eral rupture among the churches; and such is the feeling that the immediate future promises no reeonciliation. it ‘has become a matter of vital importance between the two factions, which of them is still the church, and it is necessary to establish this for the retention of the church property. Millions of investments are involved, and the decision can alone be settled in the courts, Some years will elapse before the litigation will be concluded; meanwhile the feeling between the factions is sure to greatly retard the influence of the church for good. It is a lamentable state of affairs. G. W. 8.

Will Give the Fish a Chance.

- Several years since a law was passed compelling the owners of mill dams in the state to build fish ladders, so as to allow the fish free access to the upper parts of the rivers during the spawning season. On account of the big dam in the St. Joseph river at Niles, Mich., keeping the fish out of the stream, nothing has been done towards filling the requirements of the law, by the dam owners glong the St. Joseph and Elk‘hatt rivers in this state. It 1s now likely that action will be taken, as our State Fish Commissioner, Col. Dennis, recently made a visit to Niles, Mich., Elkhart and other north Indiana cities, for the purpose of perfecting arrangements. The Elkhart Review says: “Col. W. T. Dennis, Fish Commissioner of Indiana, and Capt. O. T. Chamberlain and E. A. Carpenter, of this city went to Niles, Mich., yesterterday and met a committee of manufacturers and water power owners, W . N. Kendell, of the Ohio Paper Mills; E. A. Jacks, of the Niles Paper Conipany, and J. E. French, of Niles Water Power ‘Company and Michigan Wiod Pulp Company, and submitted to them the reason why a fish ladder should be put in at the dam across the St. Joseph river there, to be followed by placing ladders in the dams at South Bend and, Mishawaka. After hearing the reason| and examining the plans and specifications presented by the visiting statesmen, the Niles gentlemen cheerfully and promptly decided to put in the ladder at theirdam during the summer, when the water becomes low enough to allow it to be done properly and economically. It is expected that the owners of the dams between that point and this will with equal readiness and cheerfulness acquiesce in the just demands for the compliance with the Jaw which provides means for the finny multitude of Lake Michigan to find a way to the vast hatching and breeding grounds surrounding the many lakes and marshes of northern Indiana and southern Michigan, so that in two or three years our waters will teem with the richest and choicest food, and furnish the healthiest and most gratifying sport to thousands of people for all years to come. The cost of this improvement will be trivial. The benefit will be great and lasting.”

A New Hebrew Departure. Fort Wayne Gazette. - : sl The Jewish race in America have developed traits different from their brethren in the Old World. There is noew a moyement among them to bring poor boys of their blood and faith into the mechanical trades and make Jewish carpenters, machinists, etc. There is at this time a Jewish manual trade school in New York where boys ot this race receive a thorough technical training. The school is called the Hebrew Technical institute. Youths who have been trained in it pass into the mechanical trades and shops and at once take good places, passing rapidly ahead of those who lack such preliminary education. Drawing is one of the branches in which the young mechanics are trained most carefully. So thatin a few years we shall have Jewish artisans in all the manual labor departments. This invasion of the trades is something quite new in the history of the race in modern times. The school. is a benevolent institution, free to students. 1t is supported by a number of prominent and wealthy Jewish gentiemen. In explanation of this new departure they say that the ranks of trade and commerce are already crowded till they can receive no more recruits. So are the professions. The boys who are now in the technical school are poor, and would be forced to stand upon the street and sell shoe strings and matches and beeome petty peddlers. They could not be anything else than tradesmen in a meager and miserable way, because there are so many of them. With a ‘thorough manual training, however, they can go into the world and hold their own with the best.

Another Perpetual Motion Maniac

A . Huntington man, named Benj. Duley, claims to have solved the perpetual motion problem. He has been at work at it for thirty years, but as yet has let no one into the secret of his discovery. A Huntington Demo_crat reporter tried to get a peep at the contrivance. Nothiny, however, could persuade Mr. Duley to show it or explain its mechanisiw. A chat of half an hour or so with the old gentleman brought out the fact that the motive power of his machine is drawn from the atmosphere, and that when set in motion i% will run as long as there is any atmosphere or as long as the machine lasts. The air enters a cylinder, being let in as steam is let into a steam-chest. - Through this cylinder passes a shaft, and the action of the atmosphere upon this shaft is somewhat like the action of water upon the old fashioned mill-wheel. As the forces of nature constantly feed the stream that turns the mill-wheel, so the atmosphere constantly provides an uniiminishing power for Mr. Duley’s machine. The old man thinks ‘‘there is millions in it.”” He ought to take the Keeley motor man into partnership at once and form a ‘‘trust.’”’ : :

Our Celebration.

“Ligonier’s *celebration was badly marred by the bungling management of somebody in engaging speakers for the occasion. Mayor Miller and C. F. Neufer, of Goshen, felt invited, but Neufer seems to have been frozen out for some reason. Miller made an address on the regular program, while Neufer and his band had a celebrati%m of their own afterward. The committee denies having had anything to do with inviting ' him, while he was equally confident that they wanted him.’—Kendallville Standard. ' ;

It was a case of where *too many cooks spoiled the broth.”” The whole trouble grew out of a personal feeling between Mayor Miller, of Goshen, and his fellow citizen, Neufer. Y

A Sad Affair.

On Monday of last week a sad affair occurred in Noble township by which a little grandchild of ex-auditor James C. Stewart, (a child of Mr. and Mrs. Zeigler) lost its life. It was out in the yard and was not missed for some time by the mother, and when search was ‘made for it, it coald nowhere be found. Finally its body was discovered in the cistern, but life was extinct. It had doubtless been playing about the cis‘tern and fell in. It was probably two. years of age, mdthemotgfit,ifia ie i i i L o 1 N e R

OLD HICKORY JACKSON. TY b Anecdotes of the Democratic Saint . True to Life. > An anecdote illustrating the character of Andrew Jackson should be preserved, and there are many that have never gone into print. - The writer zan give two that will strike all whc knew General Jackson’s real character as being true to life. An old citizen of this city who died 'only a few years ago, as, he stated, was in Kentucky in 1828 when General Jackson was a candidate for President, and General J:ickson, in ‘traveling, stopped at the town where he lived. - The canvass was at fever heat; every body was warm on one side or the other. An eccentric Clay man took especiul pains in the most emphatic manner to show his hostility to General Jaclgson. e e

Finally, coming close up to the General, he, with great emphasis, said: “Yes, sir, I want you to understand that I am not going to vote for you.” General Jackson, rising up and looking him full in the eye. said: “Sir, I have given much of my life to my country, and it was that you might have this privilege.” ‘ The other incident in the General's life was given to the writer by Captain Bell, who died recently at Knoxville at an' advanced age. His father, as is known in East Tennessee, was a man of prominence, and a friend of General Jackson. He kept a hotel on the main road leading through East Tennessee, and which was the road General Jackson traveled to Washington. And General Jackson always stopped, as Captain Bell related, With_{ his father.

: VVIE he was elected President the first ehe traveled from Nashville in his private carriage, and before reaching Bell’s tavern he sent forward a servant to tell Mrs. Bell to have dinner ready for him and his compan‘ions. Driving up to the gate, Captain Bell, who was then.a young man, went out with his father to receive the distinguished travelers. As the General got out of the carriage and shook hands with his old friend he discovered, walking backward and for‘ward on'the porch, a North Carolina gentleman, whose name the writer can Dok call, but he was at the time a man of great prominence, and between whom and General Jackson there was the mast deadly hatred, growing ouf of indignities offered the General while & candidate, and which had come 'nigh leading to a duel. This gentl_ema.nl had stopped and was waiting for dinner, and the meeting was acoidental. ~ General Jackson recognized him at. once. He took in the situation. The deep enmity existed, but he had been elected President of the Unitod States;. end turning to Mr. Bell he saighy “Please tell Mrs. Bell we are undet many obligations to her, but we wil Adrove on, Captainßell told the writer | that his father knew all the cireum: et el W@Mfi%@;%@%fi&: eST T P Q;W‘,‘-’;‘i}“‘ M"‘Ap%hs‘“}m?twé%"f'
