FACE SEVE

OF SJXTYHINTHASUCCESS Attendance Was Larger Than On Any Previous Gathering of Members. OLD OFFICERS RETAINED. X-COv?RNOR DURBIN DELIVERED AN ADDRESS AND MAJOR LACEY TOLD ABOUT BATTLES JF THE REGIMENT. Men who had not seen each other since they left the bloody battlefields of the civil war, were united once more by the bonds of friendship, not militant law, at the twenty-seventh annual reunion of the ;:th Indiana regiment held at Fountain City Thursday afternoon and evening. Several of the eightyseven 'gray-haired civil war veterans attended the reunion for the first time Thursday. One of these, John Bodkin, of Missouri, came all the way from his home that he might once more renew old friendships, first started on the battlefields of the war of the rebellion. The attendance at the reunion was larger than in any past year. The reunion this year was featured by the address of Ex-Governor Winfield T. Durbin of Anderson, himself a civil war veteran, and also a colonel in the Spanish American war. Mr. Durbin. in his short address at the campfire, which was held in the town hall Thurs day night, paid a high tribute to the members of the sixty-ninth regiment, who had fought so valiantly for the cause. lie lauded the efforts of the union soldiers In their effort to sustain the union. At the business session of the regiment Thursday afternoon. Col. Oran Perry of Indianapolis, was retained as president of the regimental organization, while Major M. M. Lacy was retained as secretary. Mr. Harter was elected chaplain. For the first time since the reunions were begun. Chaplain Harter was absent. Major Lncey of Fountain City Thursday night reviewed the campaign in which this regiment participated, and particularly the engagement at Blakelyfi Ala., about twelve miles from Mobile, in which twelve members of the regiment under the leadership of Lieutenant Huston braved untold dangers to save the live3 of suffering men behind a vacated Confederate Intrenchment. The front of the intrenchment was guarded by numerous and dangeious torpedoes placed there to protect the troops behind. After Lee surrendered to Grant tho Confederates vacated the intrenchment, leaving their injured behind. These the twelve men intended to rescue, but only did so after several had been hurt by torpedoes. Then MaJ. Lacey ordered the Confederate general to detail a detachment of his troops to aid in removing the deadly torpedoes at the penalty of death if they, did not do so. Eight of the twelve men who participated In this rescue were present at the reunion at Fountain City Thursday. One of the features of the camp fire Thursday night was the excellent music rendered by a choir selected for the occasion and numerous soloists. The sineing of Miss Jewett was well received and she was encored three times. Roy Lacey, a Fountain City young man. also contributed three very beautiful vocal selections. Miss Grace Brennon presided at the piano. The Rev. Zerbe, pastor of the M. E. church at Fountain City, delivered the welcoming address while Major Lacey delivered the response. The next reunion will be held at Centerville next September. The date has not yet been set. Many of the veterans remained in Fountain City over night. Others coming a long distance returned Thursday night. The reunion as a whole was one of the best ever held by the regiment. The meals, dinner and supper, were furnished by the Aid society of the Christian church. CAMPBELLSTQWN, OHIO. Campbellstown, D., Sept. 20 Mrs. Nannie Campbell of Eaton, is here visiting relatives.

IS NOW EASY MATTER There Will Be No Difficulty in Securing Plenty on Richmond Markets. CRANBERRIES ARE ON SALE. NUTMEG MELONS AND WATERMELONS ARE ABUNDANT DAY OF THE GREEN DINNER IS RAPIDLY CLOSING. The problem of securing a good Sunday dinner at a nominal cost is not as great a puzzle as it was some time ago. Local grocers now have on the market excellent chickens which are retailing from forty to fifty cents, dressed. With these of course they are selling fancy, genuine Jersey sweet potatoes, at CO cents per peck. These potatoes are extraordinarily fine. Cranberries, the first of the season, are being received by Richmond retailers and they are selling' at twelve and one half cents per quart. For an early berry, the oses now being received are very good. In the melon line there is plenty. Nutmegs are better now than at any past season this year owing to the dry weather which is considered essential to a good nutmeg. Watermelons, too, are plentiful. Fancy grapes ; J e selling for ten cents per pound. There are a few home grown grapes on the market but these are not so choice. Delicious pears are selling well at two and three d'ollars per bushel, smaller quantities graded accordingly. There are not many pears but those being sold are of good quality. Tomatoes are plentiful and are selling well at reduced prices. The day of the green dinner is rapidly drawing to a close. Good sugar corn is scarce and selling for 15 cents per dozen. Green beans are becoming stringy and are not up to the standard in most respects. The Saturday markets in Richmond will offer all manner of good things for a Sunday dinner.

WEATHER COfiDITIOHS ARE VERYFAVQRABLE Farmers Are Profiting Largely At Present.

PRICE CURRENT COMMENT. Cincinnati. O.. Sept. 20.-The Price Current says: Weather conditions the last week have been favorable for agricultural interests. Warm dry conditions have been reported over much of the central regions. This was calculated to promote the maturing process now of so much Importance to the com crop and to favor the delayed thrashing of harvested grain and fall plowing. The reports concerning corn continu to reflect the lateness of the crop as" a whole, and while the weather has been of the kind most desired during the last few days much of such conditions li highly important before frost. The crop is apparently green in much of the area, and the longer the time before frost sets in the better the results are likely to be. In some localities in tho more southerly regions cutting has commenced, and in others current Information indicates that two weeks more without frost will put most of tho crop beyond frost danger, but In the more central and northerly districts the finishing of the crop has been slow. But little of the growing crop has been disturbed by other causes than lateness, and there Is an absence ot such untoward influences as damage by winds or insects. The results are practically, therefore, dependent upon weather conditions for the balance ot the season. Old corn is held back on the farms to some extent owing to the uncertainty concerning the new crop, but the price inducement is something of an offset to this holding tendency. The lateness of the corn crop. It is believed, will be likely to make seeding of winter grain late, as the rorn will be cut in many localities before seeding will be prosecuted to full extent. Considerable plowing is yet to be done. The late information regarding thrashing results presents but little that is different from previous reports.
