Kalamazoo ollicers offer a $100 reward for Joe Wolf, alias '-Little Joe," alias Harrington, who escaped from a deputy sheriff at Elkhart Tuesday night He is described as being 5 feel 6 inches tall, smooth red face, wearing a plush cap, long dark overcoat and new rubbers. Dealers in books report a large increase in the sale of the works of Kipling since he was taken sick. Though hard to acknowledge, it is nevertheless a fact, that many people read an author only when some incident niakeb his works the fad of an hour. After all it often seems as if an author's popularity is a matter of fashion. Hut with his fam., it is different. That rests upon merit. The marriage announcement of ('has. W. Carpenter and Louise Holloway comes from South Uend. Miss Holloway comes from Plymouth and many of her acquaintances will be agneably surprised at the news. The couple will reside in South Bend, where Mr. Carpenter holds a paying situation. Miss Holloway's many friends assure her of their best wishes and extend hearty congratulations. Bowels & Mercer, of Auburn, made application to sell intoxicants at Corunna, liichland township, and advertised, as the law directs, in a newspaper circulating in another part of the county. A copy of the paper, however, was eecured by the temperance people of the township, and a remonstrance was circulated with such energetic force that the applicants failed to appear before the commissioners, and judgment was taken against them. The general public has been greatly misinformed with regard to the new Osh law which goes into effect April 1 In this state. It is generally believed in this section of the country that the hw takes in every kind of fishing, from a seine down to a hook and line, and In every body of water, whether still or flowing. Fishing with hook and line in lakes is not prohibited by the new law, between the months of April I and July 1; this law only refers to hook and line fishing in running streams. From Saturday's Dally. The Church of God is holding interesting meetings at In wood. The police have stopped the policy games and closed the keno-rooms at Terre Haute.

Weatherwax organized a Columbian lodge at Inwood last night with a rutmbersiiip of 25 members. M. A. Eisnhour of Inwood has removed to New Paris, Ind. He was in town today and arranged for the Independent to follow him. Last Thursday Nathan Spencer and Anna Gunn were united at the home of the bride in Bourbon. Itev, C. A. Spitler performed the ceremony. Herman Lowe, special examiner of pensions, was here today to take the affidavit of Joel Moore in a case now pending in favor of V. O. Williams. Mrs. Bert Uetz has baen elected clerk of the Woodmen Circle in the place of Mrs. Charles Hameral. The attention of the order is directed to ttis change. Judge Tuley, of Chicago, holds that there is no authority for placing aa internal revenue stamp on city licenses. It interferes with liie soverignitv of the state to tax its own business. Miss Mate Gonter, a well Known teacher of this county, is reported to be on the road to recovery after a six months illness. Dr. Paffenberger of Lapaz gives her friends great hopes. A new law is in force that requires township trustees to receive quarterly all fees collected by Justices of the Peace taxed and collected for the quar ter, and they shall go into the general township fund. There are 21 counties in Indiana where there are lees than four months of school held annually. The new state law requiring at least 120 days of school in each township has caused a lively hustle to raise necessary funds. A most delightful time was spent Friday afternoon at the elegant home of Mrs. Shakes by the auxiliary of the Hathbone sisters. Officers were elected: Mrs. Shakes, president; Mrs. Dnrr, vicepresident; Mrs. Davis, treasurt-r; Mre. Love, secretary. The Pittsburgh lt. 11. physician was called to the depot at 11 p. ra. yesterday to attend a severe sprain which a fireman on a midnight through freight had received by falling from the engine cab. The injury was confined to his hip but did not prove 6erious enough to detain him in the city. The Calico social held at the Zehner residence last night was entirely successful. About eeventy were present and joined in the passtime for the evening, that of sewing carpet rags. Supper was served and considerable profit was derived therefrom which will be turned into the coffers of the Reformed church. Valparaiso Messenger: Austin Bidwell, one of the men who became famous through the Bank of England forgeries in 18G3, died at Butte, Montana, Tuesday. Bidwell was quite well known here, as he paid this city a visit shortly after returning to this country, being a guest of his co isin, Broncho John Sullivan. The Westviüe(Laportecounty) creamery was sold last week to Herman Krezel for less than 1,200, and cost over $1,000. This is the experience -of about seven creameries out of ten, but smooth talkers come around regularly and build new creameries at the expense of farming communities and leave them with the bag to hold, so to speak. If you have a dog on which the tax has notbee.i paid the matter should be looked after at once. The penalty is $5 and costs and the justices have issued several "dog warrants" within the past couple of days. It is the duty of the township trustees to lodge the information, and they are pretty generally looking after the prosecution of de linquents. The next senate of the United Slates will be republican by about 20 majority according to present estimates, although there are six states yet to elect senators in place of those whose term expired last Saturday. Eight new republicans and two new democrats have been chosen whe will take their seats in the upper house at the next session,
of whom Chauncey M. Depew, of New York, is the oldest ?nd Albert J. Beveritlge of Indiana, is the youngest. The last tenate was eomprspd of 4ß republicans, 31 democrats and 10 populists, giving the latter really the balance of power. The next one will be 55 republicans, 27 democrats and eight populists so the republicans may count on a majority of about 20 over all opposition. At no time 6ince the civil war has there been as decisive a majority in the 6enate for the party in power. The county board of education at a recent meeting declined to accept the county map issued by Everely & Cressner, of Plymouth. Yesterday Walter M. Carquevi'le, of Chicago, the hthog rapher, was in town in company with Messrs.

Samuel Dipert.of Polk township, was in the cily today and incidentially exercised his ordinary good judgment in subscribing for the Independent. A Bremen man was on our streets Saturday with a load of dogs which he aspired to 6ell. We have not learned that Plymouth proved a good market. Mrs. John Blain went to Argos this morning where she will attend to business concerning the W. C. T. U. convention to be held at Bourbon April 3d and 4th. Frei Appleton, who has been hiring Smith Pomeroy's horses, was unfortunate this morning in finding that one of thy animals had broken its leg. The horse was immediately shot. The lawyers have occupied the day chielly in entering their cases at the court hcu6e. According to the regime of other years court should have been in session for the past week. Since the recent law went into effect, one week is substracted from the Marshall county term and added to that of Fulton county. A dispatch from Indianapolis says Auditor Smith of M-anon county, has decided to refuse to recognize claims for mortgage exemption of $700 under the new law, and will carry the case to tha supreme court. The law is gener ally thought to be unconstitutional on several grounds, among them being class legislation. Chas. Druramond is about to make Indianapolis his permanent residence, and will continue the practice of law in that city. He expects to leave Plymouth within thirty days. Mrs. Drummond, son and daughter will follow later. We are informed that several enviable offers have been made the senator ia regard to a partnership. The outcome is at least uncertain. Mrs. lie?. G. W. Bower died Sunday morning at Thorntown, their home, from a stroke of paralysis. She was well known in this city where her husband was pastor of the M. E. church about twenty years ago. During the recent conference session she was a guest with her husband at the home of Mrs. M. E. Pershing, through whom the fact of her departure is known here. The debating society which has chosen the Champlan school-house as its arena is a progressive organization. On Friday evenings, which are its nights for meeting, the honee is inevitably crowded. During several Fridays previous to this date, notwithstanding that the mud was almost im passable, great crowds swarmed in from every direction. Tre managing ollicers are Robert Schroeder and Fred Spir. TI.e Nonanine Club. The Young Ladies' Society for the Propagation of Nonsense 1 1 The only nonsensical thing about this society is its name. That surely is a sad mistake. It may possess the merit of diplomacy, but Dot the Tirtue of fact.
The unwarranted and unwarrantable suggestion that the society was formed lor the purpose of influencing the matrimonial destinies of the young gentlemen of the community ha 1 its origin in the mind of some prosaic old misanthrope whose reward is, and will be, doubtless, a life of unrequited love. Nonsense, indeed ! ! ! It is true there were more ladies than gentlemen present, but this was purely a coincidence and unworthy of note, as it has no relation whatever to the purposes of the society. Mrs. Theodore Cressner, at whose residence and by whose courtesy the society met and was entertained Friday evening, distinguished the occasion by her constant presence and attendance upon the convenience and comfort of her guests.
M. K. Kevival IIfKin. The revival services announced some weeks since begun Thursday at the M. E. church with a large and intensely interesting meeting. Probably no church service held in Plymouth for years past has been characterized with a greater degree of fervor or more striking unity of purpose. The Rev. F. King made a brief but effective talk, and was foliowed by Pastor Smith, whose eloquent earnestness had the magical effect of riviting the attention of the large audience so closely that the dropping of a pin could almost have been heard at any time. The singing was excellent, and the sharp, short fervid testimonies evidenced a general en thusiasm that would not be suppressed. So warm and genial is the welcome ex tended to strangers and members of other denominations that one unconciously forgets his sect, and remembers only that he is a christian and a friend. The services will be continued until further notice. From the Children' Home. The Marshall county board of commissioners in company with Trustee McCrory and the building committee P. S. Alleman and John Houghton, inspected the Children's Home and took dinner at that institution today. As a result of the inspection they have nothing but Mattering comments to make. Mrs. Elam, of Valparaiso, has been connected with the institution for thirteen years during which time she has acted as agent for Porter county. Her services have been almost invaluable as she has brought some eighty children from that county and placed them with Mrs. Work. Mrs. Elam, assisted by the benevolent ladies of Valparaiso, has completed eighty night shirts for Mrs. Work's boys. This allows one set for each of forty boys. Mrs. John Elam and Mrs. John Hawkins brought a little one from Valparaiso today and placed it in the children's home. Kellison House Change. On Wednesday a portion of the goods and furniture of the Hotel Kellison, owned by Mr. Upton C. Schilt, was sold, subject to a mortgage thereon to Fred II . Kuhn. As the furniture was somewhat marred and 6tained and the carpets badly worn, Mr. Kellison informs us that he did not care to purchase at the sale and determined upon refurnishing the house and replacing the old carpets with new one of better qualities. Mr. Kellison will hereafter own all the hotel furniture and goods and says he hopes to avoid further annoyance in the manipulation of his property. County Auditor' New Duties.

Death of Hex. John L. ?mlth D. Ü. Kev. John L. Smith D. D., died at his home in Valparaiso, Saturday, Mch. llthat 5 p. m. Funeral services occured there Monday afternoon. The interment was Tuesday at Lafayette. Dr. Smith was one ot the oldest clergymen in Indiana.

Indiana county ollicers are going to make another test of the constitutionality of the fee and salary act of lbl5 which on two or three occasions has been pronounced valid. The County Officers' association has retained Judge McCabe until lately of the supreme bench; paying him 1,000, with the agreement to pay S'J.OOO additional if the effort to overthrow the act is successful. Parties representing the principal lime interests of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan, have been at Delphi in conference with the owners of the three large plants at that place, with a view to securing control by purchase or otherwise of the Delphi lime interests. It is learned from a reliable source that they claim already to have 28 plants of from two to GO kilns each, manufacturing IK) per cent, of the lime produced in these states. Delphi is of importance to the proposed trust, as it is the first point of importance east of the Missis sippi now in the manufacture of lime.
