The long expected death of Miss Ethel Dale, daughter of Oliver S. Dale, ocenred Sunday morning, Sept. 1 Oth, about 3 o’clock. The cause of her death was cystitis, and her sickness of about 6 month’s duration. Her age was 17 years, 9 months and 20 days. The remains were taken to Monticello, JKr. Dale’s former home, for interment, the funeral being held there, Tuesday afternoon. ~ I declare Charley, that man Chipman takes the cake on engine work.

Parson Billy Beane of the Goshen Democrat strikes a high key note when he says: It has been discovered that the home-grown, handspanked, ragged, barefoot, country boy makes a better fighter in the hattie of life than the pampered, welldlothed city boy, the seat of whose pants are dusted with a golden slipper. Give us the hand-spanked country boy every time.”

A most thrilling and sensational double balloon ascension is made daily from Cook & Whitby’s exhibition grounds, the novel spectacle of a horse going skyward being a feature. At Rensselaer, Friday, Sept. 15. Ira Washburn left Monday for Butler University, at Irvington, near Indianapolis, where he intends to take a two years preparatory medical course, and will then finish up with the regular medical course at Rush college, Chicago. The young man had the good lock, a few weeks ago, to be presented with a life scholarship, at Butler, by Mr. Frazce, of Los Angelos, Calif., who lately lectured at the Christian church, and who at the same time also gave him several shares of stock in the University.

We are sorry to chronicle the fact that Mrs. Anna Zimmer has at, last been prevailed upon to re-marry fc-r divorced husband, the notorious Nick. The ceremony was performed last Saturday by Squire Chappell, in Remington. The squire accompanied his report of the marriage by the following explanatory note to the County Clerk: Dear Sir—Herewith find report on the German question. Neither party to the action could give a definite account of their birthplace. Were both very young when they were born (into Ameriky.) May providence bless the bride —I don’t think her husband will.

The beautiful white buildings of the "exposition are to be sold as junk. They are soon to be advertised and knocked down to the highest bidder. About the only thing of future use in them are the iron and steel arches and timber. It is thought that not more than $1,000,000 can be realized from the auction. The most expensive building will probably bring the least money. The Manufacturers and the Liberal Arts buildings, which cost $1,600,000, and which has'ssoo,ooo in arches alone, will of necessity, it is believed, be given to the man who will tear it down and carry the debris away. The magnitude of the undertaking will be realized when it is stated that each arch contains twenty car loads of steel, all the pieces being firmly riveted together. The salvage in Administration building will also be very small. The Mines building, on the contrary, is regarded as a more favorable prospect.' The steel arches are much lighter than those of almost any other on the ground and could be readily taken down and set up again for a large work shop or factory. They would also be available for a depot of moderate sire. ;
A regular Dalton-Gang train robbery was committed near Kendallville, this state, Monday night, on the Lake Shore R. R. Estimates of the amount stolen varies from over $300,000 to less than $15,000. The engineer of the train was shot and dangerously wounded.

Last Friday evening John Platt, alias “Pappy” received from Hammond or some other place, another invoice of that peculiar kind of shelf-worn and second hand- merchandise he makes a specialty of handling, and located them m the Halloran saloon building, where they proceeded to do a thriving business. About 11 o’clock, a number of citizens informed Night Watch McColly of what was going on and requested him to arrest the outfit. This he did, with the help of Constable Wm. Wood, and 0. A. Yeoman, landlord of the Makeever House. Two girls were arrested and Pappy Platt. As the party was
crossing the street toward the jail Pappy made a break for liberty, and lit out up Washington street at a Rensselaer Wilkes gait, with “Agitator” Yeoman in hot pursuit, but rapidly falling behind, owing to the great length of Pappy’s stride. As they passed the Makeever House Comrad Yeoman took in the situation, and called out to his son to “shoot the ——This suggestion seemed to meet the exigencies of the case, and Ora blazed away. Pappy is a hard man to miss with a “ranging shot,” but this bullett went wide of the mark and before Yeoman could train his artillery for another shot, Pappy “broke” and lost inter-’' est in the race, and gave it up. The next day Pappy plead guilty to the offense defined in Section 2002 of the revised statutes, and Judge Morgan gave him the minimum sentence, which was a fine of ten dollars and an imprisonment of ten days. The girls, whose names were Mabel Oleson and Julia Miller, also plead guilty and were fined $5 and costs, amounting to sl6. 45 in each case. After the manner of the Wakarusa ditch the girls levied a forced assessment, if not for an “outlet” at leaßt for a letout, on interested parties around town, and which assessments were paid without any Wakarusa ditch kicking, and they paid their fines and costs and attorney’s fees, and left Saturday night The Oleson woman was formerly a resident of Rensselaer and is or was the wife of “Buttermilk” Oleson, also formerly a resident of this place.
A series of remarkable and pretty nearly unprecedented meteorological phenomena occured in this region Tuesday and Tuesdaynight. The sky was overcast with clouds, and at intervals there decended from the atmosphere a substance in fine drops, which as it fell gave to streets and sidewalks much the same appearance •as does the passage of Sayler’s sprinkling wagon. The exact nature of the phenomena was a great puzzle, but while the “oldest inhabitants” were trying to recall some similar occurence in the past, it was discovered that Rev. Irl Hicks had predicted ram sometime daring the front half of September, and the puzzle was then felt to be solved. It was real rain and the people were mighty glad to see it There was considerable of it, and it will be of much benefit. Thirteen-stop, full walnut case Organ, $35. C. B. Steward.

The County Commissioners.
The County Commissioners have remained in session this week, finishing up the regular business Monday aad Tuesday, and on Wednesday began the hearing in the Gifford Drainage District case. The township tax levies, as made by the Trustees, have been put upon the records. The levy for county purposes, made by the Commissioners, is 44 cents on the SIOO, and 1 cent on the SIOO for gravel road repair fund. The increase in the county tax has been made necessary by the very large advances made and in prospeet out of the county fund, on account of the preliminary expenses of the Wakarusa, Iroquois, Gifford, and other large ditches. The Weurthner ditch, a small affair in Newton tp., was ordered established, but the remonstrants give notice of appeal to the circuit court. Next Monday is the day set for the adjourned hearing of the Wakarusa ditch.
GALLAGHER IS “LET GO.”
Constable Wood trent up to Crown Point, the latter part of last week, and brought here a young f ellow who gave his name as Thomas Gallagher and whom a Monon freight conductor had nabbed in a car, at Fair Oaks, with a bunch of stolen plug tobacco, under his vest. He was examined before Judge Morgan, Tuesday, and after Dept. Prosecutor Austin had got in his evidence, the prisoner’s attorney, R. W. Marshall, made the point that no value had been proven for the stolen good 3. The court held the point well taken and he “Let him go Gallaghei” literally as well as figuratively. Gallagher claimed that a fellow bum stole the tobacco, and compelled him to take charge of it, and an attempt was made to re-arrest him, on the charge of receiving stolen goods, but he had made good use of his liberty, and got out of town.
Building and Loan Stock to Be Taxed.
The State Board of Commissioners Wednesday decided that “paid up” stock in the building and loan associations is an evasion of the tax law; that it wa9 not the design of the law that such stock should be exempt from taxation; and that hereafter it should be taxed the same as any other capital invested in in-terest-paying business. The County Auditors of the State will instructed to make inqiury and place on the duplicate all such paid up shares. It is believed that this "order, if enforced would add considerable sum to the tax duplicate the state over.
Wheat Sells for $1.25 in Crawfordsville.
Ono man in Montgomery county has worked a scheme to get $1.25 per bushel for his wheat. Lost fall a merchant there succeeded in getting one of his cusooers to vote the Demtocratic ticket, using as an argument tha wheat would bring $1.25 per bushel if Cleveland were elected. The man ran a bill with the merchant who also bought grain. Last week the farmer brought some wheat to the merchant and received but 45 cents per bushel. He then went in and settled his bill by forcing the merchant to allow him the $1.25 per bushel on his promise made last fall Tims the bill was paid, and the merchant will never again make wild promises to get votes.
