ADDITIONAL LOCALS.

Local rains in this section last Friday, and others again yesterday, have helped crop prospects considerably. -=B.

' For the State State Fair, at Indianapolis, which commences Sept. 1 Bth, the Monon Route will sell tickets at one fare for round trip. Sold Sep. 18th to 22nd, and good returning until Sep. 23rd. The Behring Sea arbitrators made their decision, Tuesday. It is largely in the nature of a compromise, sti 11 Uncle Sam gets decidedly the worst of it. But the decision provides means against the extermination of the seals by the Canadian seal pirates, and that is the main thing, after all.

Mr. J. M. Holmes, one of the viewers in the Iroquois ditch, is of the opinion that the carrying out of the proposed drainage enterprises, above town, will have a contrary effect upon the Iroquois river during dry seasons, from what The Republican predicted last week. He thinks that instead of causing the river to go dry almost every year, it will have tho effect of preventing it from ever gbing dry. His opinion being that so many springs will be opening in cutting the ditches that they will produce a continuous and unfailing stream. We certainly hope that the result will be as Mr. Holmes predicts, for the going dry of the river never fails to produce sickness in the town.

Constable Wood was over beyond the borders of Newton Tp., Tuesday, looking for J. B. Sayler, who was wanted in Judge Morgan’s court of last resort, for an alleged assault upon the person of “Old Joe” Gains. Billy did not find Mr. Sayler, but was informed that he had started for Rensselaer, with the intention of flinging himself upon the well known 81 and costs mercy of the court. He failed to turn up, howeyer, and thereby missed a good chance to even np matters with Mr. Gains, for he might have made out a prima-facie case of “drunk in a public place” against .the old man, that very evenmg.’ Still another suit for divorce has been commenced in the circuit court Arthur G. Limbach, a journeyman tailor in the employ of Mr. Peffley, of Remington, is the plaintiff, and he wants a divorce from his wife, Augusta Limbach. They were married in May 1888 and separated in June 1890. He charges her with adultery with one Murphy, and various other men whose names are unknown. With having applied to him a series of the most insulting epithets, specified at length in his complaint, and with having attacked him with a pair of his own tailors’ shears, and also with a butcher knife. These acts are alleged to have taken place at Lima, Ohio. The defendant is not a resident of the state of Indiana.

The Midway Plaisance and other side-show features of the world’s fair are among the most interesting and instructive features of the great exposition, even though some of our newspaper brethren declare many of the Midway shows to be fakes. We have seen pretty nearly all of the Midway shows, and believe all that we have seen to be worth the money that they cost,|and the time that it takes to see them. The Ferris Wheel is the most striking feature of the Midway. To ride around it is a remarkable and most interesting experience, and one that will long be pleasantly remembered. The various villages and communities of strange tribes and peoples, from all parts of the earth, are wonderfully interesting and instructive places to visit. So also are the two clyclormas—the volcano of JCiluae and the Bernese alps. Interesting too, and instructive is the working model of the Colorado gold mine, the ostrich farm, the congress of beauty, the Moorish Palace. In' short, the Midway is a wonderful place and we don’t believe there is any feature not worth the price of a visit, unless it be some of the dancing theaters. In fact, it was the duty of the officials of the fair to see that “fake” shows were kept Out of the Midway, just as much as out of the main body of the fair, and they have exercised that duty with evident faithfulness.

The Jasper County Teachers’ institute will be held week after next, at the court house, beginning Monday, Aug. 27th and continuing for five days, ft will be under the general management of County Superintendent Warren, with Profs. James K. Beck, of the State University, and E. W. Bphannon, superintendent of the Rensselaer schools, as instructors. A well arranged program, which has been prepared and printed, gives evidence that it will be an entirely successful session. I have made arrangements for plenty of money to loan, on farms in sums of five hundred dollars, or any amount above that,.at 6 per cent, annual interest, and a small commission. Money may be obtained for five years or longer if desired. M. F. Chllcote.

A wave of law barometric pressure, which extended from the Canadian boundary clear to gulf of Mexico, passed oyer the country last week, and brought with it innumerable local showers, of varying extent. There were good rains for instance in nearly all sections of this state and Illinois, on Thursday and Friday. One of these rains struck Chenoa, Illinois, and according to reports in the daily papers one of these alleged rainmakers, who burned a few dollars’ worth of chemicals there, the Tuesday before, was paid some SBOO for making it rain 1 In other words, the fellow bet some $25 or S3O against S7OO that it would rain within four days, and he won the bet. Any man could soon get rich making bets of that kindanywhere in these central Mississippi valley states, for even in a dry time, the chances are that he would win at least one bet out of every three, and thus get S7OO back for every SIOO put up.

Laporte Argus: No reader of the Argus living m Indiana can afford not to see the World’s Fair.. It will pay anybody to go and spend some time there,, because there are so many things to be seen that snost people will never have the opportunity to see again. It is an education within, itself, and hence, we say no man, woman or child can afford to lose the opportunity. If they do they will regret it all their liveg. The eost is not so great and it will be better to scrimp a little somewhere else and make this expenditure. Parents should realize this with their children, and every child old, enough to remember what it sees should be taken to the fair. It is the opportunity of a lifetime and it is too valuable to be lost. Any parent better spend a few dollars iathia educative way for his child now than to leave the child that much more when he dies. No description of the fair can convey much of an idea of it, and to see it thoroughly would require months, but a great deal can be seen in a short time if the effort is made. Go and stay as long as your circumstances will admit, and go as often as you can, but go once or twice anyhow whether you are rich or poor. It is one of the things you cannot afford not to do and you will sometime thank us for impressing this fact on you.

Salaries of the Township Trustees.

The Township Trustees, in their annual settlement with the Board of Commissioners last week, were allowing the following amounts for their services as trustees for the year: Hanging Grv, J. C. Gwinß 168 Gillam, Michael Robinson .... 110 Walker, F. M. Hershman 80 Barkley, J. F. Ihff 130 Marion, Wm. Greenfield 291 Jordan, James H. Carr 90 Newton, Nehemiah Hopkins... 94 Keener, J. F.

Cooper 110 The above sums average just $1 44 per year, for each trustee, or sl2 per month. The eleven trustees of White county were allowed for the same period an average of 8304.70 for each trustee, or $25.40 per month, or more than double the amount charged in this county. In Cass county the allowances for the five months from March to August, averaged $159 for each trustee, or over s3l per month.

THAT ELECTRIC RAILROAD AGAIN.

7 . A Under the heading “Gas Belt Electric Line” the Logansport Journal devotes a long article to the proposed gigantic electric railroad system to which reference has been made several times, in this paper. According to the Journal a large force of men is already at work upon the toad-bed of the line, between Noblesville and Indianapolis. The Jbtzrna? prints a diagram of the proposed system. It shows the main line running from Indianapolis directly north to Noblesville, and from Noblesville northwest through Frankfort to Lafayette, and from Lafayette on to Chicago, in an air line. The diagram does not locate Rensselaer, but a direct line from the center of Lafayette to the center of the business district of Chicago, will not miss Rensselaer more than a mile, or two miles at most. From Noblesville branch, lines radiate through thj gas region, taking in Marion, Muncie, Anderson, Kokomo, and extending to Fort Wayne, Logansport, Peru, &c. The main line from Indianapolis [through Rensselaer] to Chicago is to be double tracked, the branch lines are single track. The corporate name of the company is “The Chicago <fc Central Indiana Electric Railway.” The proposed lines aggregate over 500 miles in length and are estimated to cost between $8,000,000 and $10,000,000. The head man of the company in management is E. J. Pennington, the electrician and inventor of Pennington’s air ship. The company bought Pennington’s patents for automatic heating appliances, and appurtenances to electric cars, and then employed him to superintend the road. The head man financially is said to be Thos. Wilkinson, a very wealthy Englishman, the description of whose past financial career as given by the Journal, reminds one greatly of the hyperbolical and flamboyant language in which the plans and prospectuses of Pennington’s air ship were promulgated, a year or two ago.
