NEW SHRUB THAT IS A REMEDY.
A Bore Cure for Kidney Dileases and Rheumatism. It in no doubt true that next to consumption, more people die yearly from diseases of the kidneys than from any other cause. In some respects Kidney disease is the most dangerous of all maladies, because it usually has made much progress before the victim is aware of its existence. ' It is, therefore, with great pleasure we commend to our readers the recent discovery in East India cf the Kava-Kava shrub, which has proved a most powerful remedy for diseases of the kidneys, rheumatism, or other ailments caused by uric acid in the blood. The cures wrought by this new remedy are indeed most remarkable. Many who have suffered from the most severe forms of the disease, have been completely cured In from twenty to forty days by the Kava-Kava shrub. In the New York Weekly World of Sept. 10th, the testimony of Rev. W. B. Moore, D. D., of Washington, D. C., was given, describing his years of suffering from Kidney disease and Rheumatism, and his rapid cure by Alkavis. Rev. John H. Watson of Sunset, Texas, a minister of the gospel of thirty years’ service, was struck down at his post of duty by Kidney disease. After hovering between life and death for two months, and all his doctors having failed, he took Alkavis, and was completely restored to health and strength and is fulfilling his duties as minister of the gospel. Mr. R. c. Wood, a prominent attorney of Lowell, Indiana, was cured of Rheumatism, Kidney and Bladder disease of ten years’ standing by Alkavis. Mr. Wood describes himself as being in constant misery, often compelled to rise &n times during the night on account of weakness of the bladder. He was treated by all his home physicians without the least benefit and finally completely cured In a few, weeks by Alkavis. The testimony is undoubted and really wonderful. Any of our readers who are so unfortunate as to suffer from Kidney disorders or Rheumatism should write to the Church Kidney Cure Co., of 422 Fourth avenue. New York, who will gladly send them free by mail prepaid a Large Case of the Kava-Kava Compound, so that they can test its value for themselves. This generous free offer is made to prove the wonderful curative powers of this new botanic discovery.

RECORD OF MINOR DOINGS OF THE WEEK. Seven Days’ Happenings Condensed —Social, Religions. Political, Criminal, Obitnary and Miscellaneous Events from Every Section of the State. Diphtheria is causing alarm at North Vernon. The residents of Lyons have formed a company to bore for oil and gas. William Griffin, a painter, of Logansport, recently committed suicide at Chicago. Many farmers in Warren county are plowing up their wheat fields to sow in other crops. The police superintendent at Vincennes is enforcing the law against quart shops. Five schools in Pleasant township, Porter county, have been closed 'on account of diphtheria. Dr. Douglas Gray of Winchester, while bicycling, took a “header,” which broke one of his legs. Mrs. Lizzie Miller, sixty-six years, of Charlestown, was struck by a passing train, cutting off both legs. The three-year-old daughter of Wesley Horner, near Greencastle, was accidentally burned to death. Northern Indiana editors are dubbing Hon. John B. Stoll, editor of the South Bend Times, as the press censor of Indiana. Willie Feltz, six years old, of Evansville, while trying to board a moving train, fell under the wheels and was killed.

Burglars plundered several business houses at Spencer, among them the drug stores of Moss & Co. and Figg & Harris. The Ft. Wayne presbytery is holding a meeting at Goshen. The opening sermon was preached by the Rev. J. H. Hawks. G. W. Bond of Anderson is a candidate for United States Labor Commissioner, a position now held by Carroll D. Wright. Sanford C.

Herbert Hanson of Michigan City, eight years old, while fishing in the Michigan Ctiy harbor, fell overboard and was drowned. The six-year-old daughter of Mrs. Joseph Wicken, of Marion, temporarily alone in tihe house, caught her clothing on fire, and was fatally burned. Barney Van Hoorebeke, of Madison county, recently charged with wife murder and acquitted, proposes to sue his neighbors who bore false testimony. The saw mill and planing mill plant owned by Ezra N. Todd, at Windfall, was destroyed by fire last week, causing a loss of $4,000, with no insurance. The boys employed in the Pennsylvania glass factory at Anderson went on strike last evening, the orders calling for more work without increased pay.
Walling Miller, a wealthy farmer near Columbia City, while handling dynamite caps, accidentally exploded one of them, blinding him permanently in one eye. During a fight between colored waiters employed in the Filbeck Hotel, Terre Haute, Robert Bunkley was danerously stabbed with a knife wielded by William Mason. While John Hartman of Ft. Wayne was fishing in St. Mary’s river, his hook fastened to a bundle which proved to contain the body of an infant child, with a stone tied to its neck.

The children were mustered by fire drill and safely marched out, but many lost their books and wraps.

AWAY TWENTY-SIX YEARS.
Left Wife and Daughter and Went West to Seek a Fortune. This might have been an Enoch Arden tale, but it isn’t. Indeed, it would have been if the Mary of this incident had married a second time. But Mary didn’t, says the New York World. Thirty years ago they came to Vinoland, N. J.. and set up their household goods in the midst of the pine forests. There were Captain Mosee B. Lucas, an old-time ship captain, retired, his good wife, Mary B. Lucas, M. D., graduate of the Boston schools, and their daughter Lucy. They bought a farm tract, built a little house and set to work to clear away the woodland. Two years of this satisfied the old sea captain, in whose veins flawed the roving blood of a seafaring man. One day he faced the good wife, satchel in hand. “I’m goin’ out west, Mary,” said he, “to seek my fortune. It’s toe dead rusty here to suit me.” They sent him away with tears and blessings. After he had gone Dr. Lucas braced herself for a bout with fate. She decided to clear the land herself, and as her skirts discommoded her she put on bloomers, the first in all likelihood in south Jersey, and her daughter, when she reached womanhood, followed suit. Ignorant people guyed the two lone women. Boys threw stones at them. But the Lucases kept on, and in the course of years they carved a lino little farm out of their woodland tract. Once in a great while there was an opportunity for Mrs. Lucas to practice her profession, and when the village of Pleasanton arose on the site of what was a single store she secured quite a neat little practice. Years passed. No word from the captain. The woman mourned him as dead. Recently there stepped from a train at Vineland a gray-haired, well-to-do looking man of 76.
“Know a party by the name of Lucas —Mary B.?” he asked of a hackman. “To be sure,” said the latter. "Git right ni.” And the nag was soon hobbling over the roads toward Pleasantville. Enoch Arden —for it was he — stuck his head out of the window and gaped. What had been rough pine woods was now well-cleared farms. At (his own door the vehicle draw up. Two elderly women in bloomers, partly covered by their short gingham aprons, come out. “Must be a mistake. Drive on,” said Captain Lucas. “No, this is the place,” said the driver. The old man looked again. “What! Mar, is that you?” he asked. “For the love of heaven, It’s Moses!” sih ecried. “Welcome home, my dear. But weren’t you a long time coming?” Hand and hand they went into the house. No chance for an Enoch Arden situation. Lucas told them that he was a lumberman of Eureka, Cal., and had plenty of money to make them comfortable the rest of their lives.
WEBSTER STATUE DEFACED.
Vlaltora to the Capitol Use It to Sttike Matches On. Daniel Webster’s statute at the Capitol is having a hard time of it, and the police are scurrying about in frantic endeavor to suppress a new form of desecrating the marble representation of the great orator, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. When it was put in position the representatives of his native state were delighted over the fact that although the statute is a small one, because Daniel himself was undersized, it was advantageously located at the very entrance to statuary hall, the large room which was once the house of representatives, which echoed to his eloquence prior to his senatorial days. Unfortunately for the friends of Daniel, the statute was altogether too conspicuous, and It became a favorite point of attack for straggling visitors with unlighted cigars. Not long ago some vandal scratched a match on the tail of Daniel’s coat, and later another mark of sulphur was discovered across his foot. Both of the offenders were arrested and released on payment of a small deposit, which they promptly forfeited, but the attention of the police has at last been diverted from the Pere Marquette statue, which now rests in all its marble loveliness free from attack by religious fanatics, and they give all their time to watching people with unligdited cigars as they pass Webster’s statue, and the man who incautiously draws a match from hie pocket at the critical moment is pretty certain to be pounced upon by one of the blue-coated guardians of the capitol and warned that it is forbidden to scratch a match on even the innermost recesses of the clothing or limbs of the great expounder of the constitution.
Bear Trapped Himself.
While William Delong of Cammal, Pa., was driving along the road with his butcher wagon, a bear smelt him and began to follow him. The rear doot was open and coming up behind, Bruin calmly climbed in and commenced chewing on a leg of mutton. His paw struck the lever which closes the door. It shut with a bang, and Delong, to his intense surprise, found that ho had live as well as dead meat aboard. The bear tried his best to escape, but couldn’t, and Delong drove four miles to Cammal, where the animal was shot and converted into steaks.
A Very Sad Case.
“Please to give me something to eat, sir,’’ says an old woman. “I had a blind child—’he was my only means of subsistence—and tihe poor boy has recovered his sight.”
One Family’s Fatillties.
Six children of John McGrath of Seneca, Kan., were drowned recently. Eleven of the McGrath family have met death by drowning within two yean.
