The ( brysaiiUtemiini Show. The third annual chrysanthemum show given by the ladies of the Presbyterian church occurred at the Pattersou building, Thursday and Friday, November 18 and 19. A sumptuous dinner was served Friday, and refreshments were served each evening. The hall was adorned with aud rendered beautiful by banks of chrysanthemums of every hue aud color. The premiums awarded were as follow: Miss Mary Ulezeu for largest blossom, first premium; Miss Lillian Coonrod second premium; Mrs. Lode Smith for best collection, first premium and to Mias Lillian Coourod for second l*st collection. The dnil ami performance by the little folks Thursday evening was very pretty indeed and showed the matchless genius of Mrs. Omdvena in the training of the children, whose1 success was due to her patient efforts. < Tiie performance on Friday evening was a rendition of a most laughable burlesque tmtuiod “Over tin Garden Wall.'* This was at some disadvantage, owing to the serious illness of Mrs. Fannie Mount, who. the leading lady of the superb company of stars who gav. it, but notwithstanding this disadvantage it was well rendered aud rapturously receiv-d by the grent throng of people in attendance.

Obituary. Dr. Jamea T. Lance of Spurgeon, died on Saturday evening, November 30, 1307, of eatarrb of the throat. He had been gradually failing in health for over two years. He was born January 19,1859. He was raised on a farm and attended the common schools here in the winters. He was married to Miss Jane Hussey and located on a farm. Soon after his marriage he determined to study medicine, and began reading uuder Dr. Joseph W. Camp. After reading for two years he found himself without money, and one of his old associates, D. M. Martiu, now of Oakland City, came to his relief, placing his money at his command. He then atteuded lectures for two years at Iudianapolis, and on coming home he began the practice of medicine. Success was assured him from that time until he was compelled to quit on account of failing health.. He had a very extensive practice and accumulated property very fast, bought a wioe farm near town aud built a comfortable home. Every one that knew him was his friend. His l>enefactor, D. M. Martin, assisted him from time to time, advised him to insure his life, which he did for one thousaud dollars, which he carried until his death. The funeral took place here last Monday at 10 o’clock a. in. He was buried with the honor of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, he being an honored member of Spurgeon lodge No. 583. His remains were followed to his grave by the largest crowd of jajople that ever attended a funeral at this place, all agreeing that he will be greatly missed, lie leaves a wife and five lovely children and all that ever knew him as friends. We all say farewell, Dr. Lance, you made life pleasant as mortal man can here for your friends, and we have every teason to believe that you have gone to a better world than this. Oxk War Knew- Him.

The electric light plant is now running in flue style, the arc and incandescent lights giving the best of satisfaction, in fact giving a more' brilliant light than before the plant was wrecked by the explosion which occurred in August last. The plant is now one ot the finest in Southern Indiana. The I company have two large boilers to furnish steam for the plant and two engines, one for the arc and one for the incandescent lights. The arc lights were turned on last Thursday night much to the delight of the pedes trains who are called out in the evenings. The citizens of Petersburg have learned during the shut down of just how much value they are after uight. Since the explosion the people Ivave been carrying around old lanterns in order to find their war home and keep out of the mud during the dark nights. They realize now that it is almost impossible to do without them no mat'er what the cost may be. The incaudosceut lights were turned on Monday night and are giviug better satisfaction since the new dynamo has been put iu. The plant is a dandy and no mistake. Pied, November 14, 1897, Airs.

Preparation of H round for Planting Sugar Berts. iPurdue University Agricultural Experiment Station, Newspaper Bulletin No.51,Nc venaber 22. tSOT.) The increased interest in the sugar beet question has brought to the experiment station an unusually large number of samples of sugar beets from all sections of the state. Some of the beets were raised from seed furnished by the statiou and some from seed obtained from other sources. In the case of the seed sent out from the station,full working directions were furnished. In most cases these directions were not followed. although those who requested free seed agreed to fully follow working directions. The most essential preliminary to raising good sugar beets is the proper preparation | of the seed bed. The ground should be stirred to a depth of at least 16 inches. The best way to accomplish this is to turn a 1 arrow about 8 inches deep with a common plow and follow with a subsoil plow in the bottom of the furrow. Very few farmers who tried raising beets report that they used a subsoil plow or any other implement for stirring the soil to a greater depth U.an 8 inches. The result of this is seen in many of the samples received. Instead of a siugle tap root there are a number of small roots, and instead of the beet growing well under ground, it extends so far above ground that uearlv onehalf of its weight is useless for sugar making purposes. Both these defects can be corrected by deep plowing and subsoiling. It is much better to do this plowing and subsoiling in the fall. We therefore advise all those who intend to experiment with sugar beets the next year or who intend to raise them for any purpose, to plow the land now, and be ready to piaut as early as the season will permit in the spring. This early planting is a great advantage on the moderately light lands that are best adapt, ed for sugar beets since it advances the crop to a stage where it can better withstand the usual dry summer season. In the distribution of seed in the spring, the statiou will give preference to those who have land properly prepared. If farmers intend to try the raising of sugar beets it is of the utmost importance that the work be properly done in every respect. For every test not properly conducted and giving beets of poor quality is not simply useless; it is directly injurious, since it seems to indicate that the locality is not I adapted for beet culture. Badly conducted te>ts may be the means of keeping beet fae lories away from localities that are really well suited for the business. They will certainly never be the means of inducing capitalists to invest money in factories in I any locality. The first step in the right direction is proper plowing and this can and ought to be done at once. H. A. Huston, Chemist. No Hriplng or Pains. Arrowsmith, 111., Jan. 21. 1897.

Some Plain Facts. Grave errors, injustice, wrongs of greater or less degree, arise from lack of knowledge of the truth, and more frequently from deception. The most infamous case on record of deception and injustice is the attempt to demonetize silver as a money of final redemption in the Unitea States. There is no learned judge, skilled lawyer, or court of justice that is capable of reconciling the effort with the constitutional laws that govern the issue of money in this country The people have been deceived, officials in power, chosen to administer justice under the laws, have ignored their sworn duty, and given aid to the scheme that has paralyzed industry, reduced property values one-half, and beggared millions. There is no authority of law, either specific or by inference, by which gold alone is made the only money with wdiich to discharge debts, either public or private* The effort to make it so is unconstitutional and a national calamity. Plain and ample information, facts, and truth, concerning this almost successful scheme to corner the wealth of the people, is now being printed in the Cincinnati Enquirer, a newspaper which the combined power of money has failed to muzzle or buy. The Weekly Enquirer is only 75c, a year. The address is Enquirer Company, Cincinnati, O
