Thursday, Dee. 13, 1900.

The board of county comissioners of Clinton county have closed a contract for twenty-two voting machines, to be delivered not until next fall, at a cost of $600 each, or $13,200. It seems that the voting machine man is getting in his graft in great shape, early and well. No fake trust quite meets its equal.

Those who were entertained at dinner Saturday by Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Meredith were, Wheeler Jenning and wife, W. W. Black and Misses Alvina Jergusou and Lizzie Kerr.

Indiana’s first census was taken in 1800 and it had but 2517 people. There were only three counties in the state at that time, Knox, Gibson and St. Clair. Knox and Gibson divided and subdivided but still exist as counties, but St. Clair has disappeared from the list. In 1810 the population increased to 21,520, and in 1820 the number was 147,178, and now in this, Indiana’s 11th census it has mote than 2 1/2 millions. Indiana is the smallest in era of any state admitted into the Union during the century' except the state of Maine.

The W. F. M. Society held their quarterly meeting at the church Sunday evening. Miss Eugenia Vater, of LaFayette, was present and gave her talk on “A Trip to the Holy Land,” which was very interesting.

Many of our subscribers each week after they have read the Record they mail it to some distant relative. That’s right! But it costs you tifty-two cents a year to do so, and for only forty-eight cents more we will send the paper direct from this office every week for a year and save you the trouble. A few other of our subscribers who have paid for the paper complain that before they get a chance to hardly look at the week’s issue it is borrowed by a next door neighbor, and does duty in four or five families, but fails to find its way back to its owner,

Among the tens of thousands who have used Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for colds and la grippe during the past few years, to our knowledge, not a single has resulted in pneumonia. Thos. Whitfield & Co., 240 Wabash ave., Chicago, one of the most prominent retail druggists in that city, in speaking of this, says: “We recommend Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for lagrippe in many cases, as it not only gives prompt and complete recovery, but also counteracts any tendency of lagrippe to result in pneumonia.” For sale by J. W. Hollin & Co., druggist’s. James M. Osborn, who was on trial all last week in the Montgomery county circuit court, for the murder of Boze Ellis at the Valley saloon in July, was adjudged by the jury as guilty of manslaughter. The case was given to the jury at 6 o’clock Saturday evening, and at 8 o’clock they reported their decision to the court. It was expected that the defense would carry the case to a higher court if the prisoner was convicted but with the close of the trial Saturday his attorneys had no such motion to make. Osborne is 27 years old, and will be sent to the Jeffersonville reformatory to serve an indeterminate sentence of from two to twenty-one years.
