Drouth Broken by ffifce Shower Thursday. The drouth in this section was broken by a heavy shower last Thursday afternoon. The much needed rain came as a blessing to the com and potato crops, though neither had suffered in the vicinity of Nappanee as upon the sandy lands. The wind which accompanied the rain did some damage to trees, but the hail which followed was not heavy enough or of long duration to cause much damage. *>,. . m _ Diarrhoea Cured. “My father has for years been troubled with diarrhoea, and tried’every means possible to effect a cure, without: avail,” writes John 11, Zirkie, of Philippi, W. Va. “He saw Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy advertised in the Philippi Republican and decided to try it. The result is one bottle cured him and he lias not suffered’with the disease for eighteen months. Before taking this remedy he was a constant sufferer, lie is now sound and well, and although sixty year§ old, can do as much work as<a young man.” Sold by J. S.

In The Field of Amateur Ball. The South Bend News complains that South Bend is a poor baseball town- and that the Central league club is being given inadequate support when compared with other towns in the circuit. Away from Soutli Bend the club plays .before from 750 to 1,200 people on week days and never less, than 2,800 on Sundays. At Springbrook on week days scarcely enough people assemble to pay the visiting club the guarantee and on Sundays it is a rare thing to have over 2,000 paid admissions. About sixty Nappanee fans went to South Bend Sunday to see the Central league game between South Bend and Terre Haute. They were disappointed because it was advertised that Tobias would be on the mound -for the Benders and lie did not appear in the game. The South Bend team lias a numbe r ; 6f old pi tchers in condition ajid had won 9 out of the 14 games at homeland wanting the other five did not want to risk anew man. However, Smith, who pitched the game, had an off day and gave a very poor exhibition, though the fast bunch behind him saved his record all right, 6 to LaPorte lias a ball team claiming the champion amateur record with loud acclaim. It would be well for the LaPorte men to sing that song after they have bumped up against the Nappanee Tigers who are on the same map with LaPorte.

The Marion Owls will be here for Saturday’s game. This team is a bunch of semi-professionals and itcosts Manager Volkmann considerable money to pull off this game The fans who like good ball should show their appreciation or these expensive clubs cannot be brought here. The Tigers will meet the South Bend Spiros on a neutral diamond at Goshen Sunday. The Spiros are claiming the championship of that city and this part of the State, and there is to be something doing when they and the'Tlgers meet at Goshen. The Nappanee “rooters” will be on” hand to encourage the Tigers. —^The Laughlin fountain pen from SI.OO -up to $6.00 at the News Bookstore. ■

.!The New Idea certainly lias advantages over other Manure Spreaders. The New Idea is quite different from other spreaders, first, it very near the ground making it nice to load into and is usually drawn with but two horses. , .Second—lt is different from other Spreaders because it is much narrower and can be drawn through a smaller gate or door and stored away in a smaller room. ' i Third—lt differs from other Spreaders because it has two cylinders and the manure passes out between the two instead of over the top of one cylinder, only. After the manure passes through between the two. cylinders it passes into the distributors which thoroughly pulverizes and distributes the manure upon the soil.
