Watterson versus Cleveland.

Henri W. Watterson, the editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal, who was also the author of the tariff plank of the democratic platform and who is an acknowledged leader of democracy, now says of Mr. Cleveland: “A man asincapableof rec (living’ impressions as of returning warmth, and sensible of criticism, only to the point of resenting it, the president sits in the white house like a wooden image made to be worshiped, not to be loved. To the weaker members of his cabinet he has in parted his. dull self-sufficency and cold stolidity. The most servile as well as the sincerest form of flattery is imitation and the beggars on horseback whom Mr. Cleveland, seeking to discover a new politcal planet and to people it with creatures of his Own, brought into being and mounted, have caught the trick of their chief and are equally industrious and successful in neglecting great for little things. They too take more joy in a republican who has repented and turned mugwump than in 99 democrats who have never gone astray. A near and old friend of his said to me not long ago: ‘Of all the arid natures I ever encountered he is the most arid. He sympathizes with nobody, makes common cause with nobody, and in the most serious affairs trusts wholly and solely to fortune or caprice.’ ”

BANKS BREAK. Some men lose money, but he who buys a farm in WavilC Comity, Illinois, is sure of a good home, pnd a profitable investment. We would like to correspond with those desiring good cheap homes, where all kinds of grain and grasses are grown, and where fruits of all kinds are grown to perfection. You cannot afford to let your money lie idle when yon can make an investment that is absolutely safe, and certain of a profit. Our farms are all selected with reference to their convenience to schools, churches and markets, and cannot fail to please anyone who comes and sees our advantages and resources. During the last two years we have sold nearly Two Hundred Thousand Dollars worth of farms and our correspondence now indicates that during the next few months we will sell more farms than we ever have heretofore in the same length of time. When we make a a sale we procure deed and abstract, and send them to the bank of the purchaser, where he is permitted to examine both, and see that everything is all right. In this way the purchaser is fully protected as to title and payments. Our farms are nearly all sold on a payment of from £ to | in cash, and the balance on time, from 4 to 5 years, at 6 per cent, interest. If you own a good farm where everything is raised to live on, you need have no cares about banks breaking. We give you one example. If it does not suit you send for price list and descriptive circulars. No. 100. Q/~l ACRES I?.£ miles Irom R. R. station.

Sensational Judgement Against the Monon.

QAt Ind’anapolis Thursday, the special master in chancery ex-Judge Lewis C. Walker, submitted to the Federal court a voluminous report of his findings of facts and of law in the sensational railroad litigation inaugurated by the suit of Charles E. Pope, receiver of the Chicago & South Atlantic railroad company, against the Chicago <fc Indianapolis Air Line company, the Indianapolis, Delphi <fc Chicago railroad company, the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago com-

pany-andErastus Sharp, trustees. The suit grows out of the organization in 18G9 of the branch of the road running from Indianapolis to Chicago, then known as the Indianapolis, Delphi■'& Chicago railroad. The road as is well known went through a series of misfortunes, ;nd finally passed into the hands of Harry Crawford, of Chicago, who conso 1 idated it with ; the Chicago & Atlantic railway, of which he was owner, and by a series of maneuvers on his part it passed into the hands of its present owners. The master making the report declares that the Chicago & Indianapolis Air Line company was not a purchaser in good faith of any of the bonds of the Indianapolis, Delphi & Chicago railroad. The master further finds that at the time the stock of the Indianapolis, Delphi & Chicago railroad was issued to Crawford to the amount of $1,800,000, Crawford was, in fact, insolvent, and that the work was done by Crawford on borrowed money; that Crawford obtained possession without right of a large part of books and papers of* the Chicago <fc South Atlantic company, and amohg these were numerous deeds for rights of way of the Hue, and many of these deeds contained an assignment of the Indianapolis, Delphi & Chicago railroad of the property therein to the Chicago & Atlantic, but when these deeds were produced before the commissioner the assignments had been torn off. The master holds that the amount of property taken from the Chicago <fc South Atlantic, and which the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago company should be required to pay, is $108,922.88 with interest at G per cent, per annum from the 4th day of March', 1881, and now $283,081.0a; and that the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago railroad company should be held and decreed to pay the costs of the suit - .

George Perrigo and His “Turkle.”

George Perrigo caught a snapping turtle last week, cut off its head and had it for dinner. Three days afterward he heard a chicken Equaling under the house and upon investigating found that the turtle head had caught it. He had to pry the jaws open to release the chicken which was so badly injured that it died. —Monticello Democrat. This recalls a scrap of White county court records in which the clerk of the court recorded and read in open court that the jury in a certain case was composed of eleven good and truthful men and George Perrigo.— Delphi Citizen. ‘

The Asylum Crowded But Gasoway Gone.

The answer to the application for the admission of William Gasoway to the Logansport insane asylum has been received In the form of a circular letter from Dr. Rogers, the medical superintendent, in which it it is stated that both the men’s and women's departments, at the asylum are now full, and at the date of the circular, July 12, there were 60 applications on file, in a State of suspensiOtt. Whenever vacancies occur the pending applications are carefully scFutlmzecTahdfrom thenumberof recent, presumably curable or dangerous cases, the most meritorious are selected without regard to prioiity ,of application. Judged upon this basis, it would seem that young Gasoway ought to be amorg the first selected. The chances, however for the reception of William Price, the other Jasper county lunatic- now held at the county jail, would not seem very promising. Still less those of Fems, the Newton county horse thief, who was adjudged insane and is still in Sheriff Hanley’s care. About the only one of the conditions of meritoriousness that he fulfills is that he is dangerous; -and he is an ugly customer, sure erough. The hospital is being enlarged to increase its capacity from 413 to about a 100 more, but the expansion can not be made available, for about a year. Dr. Rogers thinks the best means for relieving the crowded condition of the asylum is for the Legislature to authorize the discharge of quiet and harmless chronic cases, to county or domestic care. Since the above was ih type, notice was received, Tuesday to bring Gasoway to the asylum, at once, and he was taken over Tuesday, by Sheriff Hanley and Dept. McColly. He was very reluctant to go, and the exertions of five men were needed to diess and shackle him for the journey. Sheriff Hanley talked some with the hospital physicians about Gasoway’s case, and thinks he will soon be cured.

Delphi Times.

REMEMBER "BILL N.” JOSES.

while taking in the World’s fair. His place is very easy to get to from this section, being only a few blocks from the Monon’s Englewood depot. The electric sti eet cars pass within two blocks of his place, taking you direct to the fair grounds at a cost of only 5 cents. He has fine rooms, quiet, respectable neighborhood and his charges are very reasonable. A dollar a day, or for two in a room, only 75 cents, each person. He furnishes good meals, in an adjoinirg private residence, at 20 cents a single meal, 0r,57 cents a day for all three meals including a nice lunch to take with you to the grounds. “ An especially strong point in favor of his place, is immunity from danger of fire. Two World’s Fair hotels have burned already, and several others nanowly escaped. His place is 1216 West 61st street, Englewood. Get off the cars at Englewood, go west a few blocks on the 63rd Street cars to May street, then walk north two blocks to 61st street, and there you are. Again we say; Remember “Bill N.” and be wise.

West Baden Springs AT YOUR OWN DOOR. These celebrated Springs are located in Orange County. Ind., eighty miles northwest from , Louisyille. Ky., and twenty-three miles southwest of Mitchell, Ind. The springs proper are situated in a beautiful valley, surrounded by majestic hills, adorned by iioble forest trees. Qireular basins, carved out of. the native whetstone rock, peculiar to this region, encase the Springs, thereby retaining the natural gases in the water, which add greatly to their efficacy and flavor. The direct source of the Springs lies in an unmeasured depth below. The waters possess powerful medicinal qualities, and are used extensively all over the country. Shou d the question be asked, "What will these waters cure?” it might be answered, that it is harder to decide—what they will not cure. Alcoholism, Asthma, Amenorrhea, Bladder Diseases, Blood Diseases, Bright’s Disease, Bruises, Catan h (in all its forms). Constipation, Corpulency, Chlorosis, Debility, Dysentery, Dysmenorrhea, Dyspepsia, Diabetes, Eczema. Erysipelas, Eye Diseases, Female complaints, Gout, Gall Stones, Gastritis, Hives. Indigestion, Influenzy, Insomnia, Intemperance, Jaundice, Kidney disease, LaGrippe (and resultant evils), Leuchorrhea, Liver complaints, Malaria, Mucous Membrane troubles, Neuralgia, Obesity, Paralysis, Piles, Pimples, Quinzy, Rheumatism (in all its forms), Syphilis, Scrofula, slck Headache, Skin diseases. Sprains, Sterility, Tetter, Urinary Troubles, Venereal diseases, White Swellings, have all been benefited here—and most cases completely cured. A CASE OF 24 BOTTLES FOR ONLY $3.00 Preparations have been perfected for bottling these waters at the Springs in such manner, that there is no loss of their valuable medicinal qualities. George A. Strickfaden after taking several weeks’ treatment at the Springs with such good results, has decided to give his friends a chance to test their wonderful curative qualities. With this end in viewj he has taken the agency for the waters' and will keep a supply in cold storage ready for use.' Orders may be left At the post office or at his place of business and a case of the water wilt' at once be delivered at your own door. Apply to him for a pamphlet of 36 pages, containing analysis, testimonials and full particulars of these wonderful waters. George A. Strickfaden, > Agent. Survey Notice.
