NEW RICHMOND RECORD.

THE GERMAINE CAVENY CO.:

EVERYTHING HERE

The next and second attraction of the 1900-1901 series of the New Richmond Lecture Course will be the Germaine-Caveny Co, which will appear at Hollin's Hall on Monday evening, December 31. This company, which is a combination of magic, music and picture art, is composed of three people, Messrs. Germaine and Caveny are respectively in the front rank of attractions as Magician and Crayon Artist. Mr. Germaine has made for himself, in a few years, an enviable reputation and the testimony from a great variety of sources that he is as good as the best. He will be accompanied by his sister, Miss Ida Germaine, who will furnish the requisite music for the program and will also give marvelous exhibition in “Telepathy.” The combined arts of these people make their performance the most inimitable and delightful. Mr. J. Franklin Caveny, crayon artist, entertainer, and chalklecturer, is most happily styled “The Young Frank Beard.” Mr, Caveny has added to his own narural ability such trainings as the best schools can give. His crayon sketches are wonders of relation as one scene is evolved from another. Landscape is instantly changed to marine; daylight to moonlight; bleak winter to the glories of summer; dead canvas to living pictures. Mr. Caveny has already become known as a sketcher for current periodicals, and his humorous “chalk talks” are a whole show in themselves. “He is simply a marvel and causes one to wonder at the possibilities of human accomplishment,” says a newspaper compliment.

NEWSPAPER IN CLOUDLAND.

Unique among the newspaper .offices of the United States, and probably the highest in the world, is that printed on Pike’s Peak, 12.000 feet above the sea level, during the summer. The paper was an experiment last season, but this year it proved a full-fledged success and was published twice a day out among the trees that are very scanty up at the timber line. The publisher is T. B. Wilson. When the train on the cog road commences puffing its way up from Manitou the passengers are induced to give their names. Then while they go to the top the paper is printed and in it are the names of all who have been on the peak that day. Of course there is a large sale among them, as they desire the paper for souvenirs of the visit.

Thoone annoyance of the printer is the relic hunter. When the newspaper man’s back is turned there is a rush of laughing girls for the type cases to gather type for souvenirs of the trip. One day he published a notice saying: “Iph there are seen a phew mistakes in this paper and we phail to spell all names right, do not blame us, phor it is the best we can do. Some phlighty girls phrom Boston philched all our ephs.”

DEATH OF WM. ZERSE. William Zerse died at St. Elizabeth Hospital on Saturday morning at 9 o’clock. He was prostrated by a stroke of apoplexy one evening last week, and was taken to hospital, where he remained in an unconscious condition until his death. He was 51 years old. He was a brother of Otto G. Zerse of Attica, who was engaged in the drug business in this city for a number of years. Funeral services were held in the parlor of the Evans-Scheffee undertaking establishment Monday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock, and the interment made in Greenhush Cemetery.— LaFayette Morning Journal. Mr. Zerse will be rembered by New Richmond people as being a first-class painter, and located here some three years ago with his paint shop upstairs over Messer & Westfall’s blacksmith shop.

Newtown vicinity and across the country to Romney experienced some wild excitement on Tuesday of last week, Arlie Palin, whose home is near Newtown and who was recently adjudged insane and fought the efforts of relatives to have him taken to the asylum, attempted to shoot his brother, inflicting a wound on one of the fingers of the latter, who caught the revolver with his hand. Arlie then walked to Romney and gave himself up to the authorities, and while awaiting the arrival of the deputy sheriff spent the time at the home of Jake Bailey in Romney. On Wednesday he was taken in charge by the Fountain county authorities and taken to the Central Insane Hospital at Indianapolis. Owing to the peculiar working of the county reform laws, all county accounts must be closed up at the end of the year. Therefore all persons having bills against the county should have them on file with the county auditor by Dec. 25. All money in the county treasury, at the end of the year will revert to

i the treasury; and no appropriation 1 is authorized by law to pay last year's bills out of the next year’s i funds.

Thos. , Whitfield&Co.,240 Wabash ave., , Chicago, one of the most promi- [ nent 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.

HUNTERS, BEWARE.

In late years, many farmers have manifested a very marked opposition to the hunting for game on their premises by city sportsmen. That the inhibition is a matter within their discretion, no one will question. Printed signs—on heavy cloth—warning the hunters against trespassing are common in sections where game is likely to bo found.

VOTING MACHINES.

The voting machine agent is a hustler. He pays ten cents a line straight for puffs in the newspapers in an effort to sell our people voting machines at $600 per machine. He has not struck Cass county so far, but will be along this way very soon. There is a big “divvy” in the business for some one, and an agent who can pull the wool over the eyes of our Commissioners is worth his weight in gold. The five-ply and nine-ply jail bars in a mild extravagance compared to the voting machine graft. --Logansport Chronicle.

Up in Union township, in Porter county, says an exchange, lives a farmer economical, so much so, in fact, that he would not purchase a rain-proof printed sign, to warn sportsmen against trespassing on his domain, but instead, scrawled on a piece of cheap cotton goods the following legend:— “No huntin on these preMises. us Farmers would ketch hell if we went to Town and shot chicKens.”
