THE DRUG FIEND.
PUT UP NEW POWER HOUSE
Hasheesh Makes Its Slave Utterly Useless For Any Service. One of the drugs that are most striking in their effects Is hasheesh, or Cannabis Indira, largely taken in Asiatic countries, where I used myself to meet its votaries. Its chief peculiarity Is to make one believe with all his might whatever Is suggested to him. If ho is an Arab, tell him that be is a sultan, and straightaway he orders heads to be cut off. Tell him be Is a rooster, and lie will crow. I knew of two Americans who experimented on themselves, and when the first was told that he was like a locomotive he snorted and whistled and kept going round the table puffing and blowing until he dropped from sheer fatigue. Tlie other somehow conceived tlie idea that he was dead and forth'',ith gave elaborate directions for h.s dwn funeral till he waxed wroth a' the unseemly mirth of his compan on a when they should have wept. Hasheesh makes its slave utter'y useless for any service, and so with the other drugs. Their victims one and all end in becoming do-nothings Self made do-nothings, or those who are so by drug taking, are much worse than useless. As they usually do not begin till as adults they reach the working period of life, they become wretched burdens on the real workers, since our social system lacks any constitutional enactment whereby, ns occurs In a community of bees, tbe workers systematically put their drones to death. The opium fiend from long living in an unreal world becomes transformed into the most all round liar in the land, the very embodiment of unveracity. One of them victimized me with a loan that he might go nnd close tln> eyes of Ills dying mother when lo r eyes needed no such closing for yi irs afterward Another sent from a western city to ids wife a telegram which purported to come from an undertaker demanding money to pay fur shipping his body home. This money, when it came, he, and unfortunately no undertaker, pocketed and then went his way. \Ye nil know what tbe confirmed drunkard becomes, but imt till the Judgment day will the whole story be known of the griefs nnd tears of the innocent ones whom the drunkard made to suffer while he was here.— Everybody's Magazine.
Inlcruihuu Established New Machines at Git-ton's Crossing Near Reelsville to Generate Power for The Sleep Grade There.
WILL BE COMPLETED NEW YEAR
* h” 1 '' rr '' Haute, Indiarapo; * • | Eastern Traction Company is inatai:ing a new dynamo and power ..Mast at thg Girton crossing, known ^ ^'op 37, ngar Reelsville. The r ,ucture which will house the r-uchine is already well under way, and it is expected that the building will be complete by ChrlsLuas day and that the machinery will be in operation by New li ‘ear's. 1 he high tension wire which heretofore, has extended no further than Greencastle, has been carried on through and all is in readiness to connect to the machine as soon as It is placed. The new power house has been made necessary by the fact that the power has been found insufficient to carry the cars over the grades in Washington township, and especially in winter when the tracks are slippery. Only one dynamo will be placed now, as it is believed that this will furnish sufficient power for the present needs of the line.
AVERTED A TRAGEDY. Nerve Displayed by Daniel O'Connell at a Critical Moment. 1 fituli-l O’Counell, the famous Irish agitator, had 11 contempt for physical danger. Ou a certain uccnsiou a meeting had been convened, and a large crowd assembled in a room ou the first floor of a building in a small eily lu Ireland. O’Connell was about to address the people when a gentleman, pale with fear, made his way to tlie platform aud hoarsely whispered: “Liberator, the floor Is giving way! The beams that shore it up are cracking, aud Nve shall fall through in a few minutes!" “Keep silent," said O’Connell. Then, raising his voice, he addressed the assembly: “1 find that the room Is too small to contain the number who desire to come lu, so we must leave it and hold the meeting outside Hie building." At tliis a few rose aud went out, but the majority retained their seats. Then O'Uoniiell said: "1 will tell you the truth. You are Irishmen, therefore brave men. The floor is giving way. mid we must leave this room at once. If there Is a panic and a rush to tlie door we shall all be precipitated into the room below, but if you obey my orders we shall be saved. I.et the twelve men nearest the door go quietly out, tlieu the next twelve, and so ou till all have gone. I shall lie the last to leave." His instructions were obeyed to the letter, and lie waited, patient nnd calm, till all had gone out In safety. Then he walked quietly across tlie sundering, cracking floor, reaching the door Just as the shattered beams gave way. And thus, by the force <>f ids strong will, a terrible accident was averted. His Glorious Victory. The commanding officer had surprised tlie young lieutenant and his daughter trying to occupy the same chair. The lieutenant sprang to his feet and saluted. “Sir.” he said, "I have the honor to report an engagement at close quarters In which I have been entirely victorious. It non merely remains for you to give your sanction to the terms of surrender." London Scraps Influence of Pluck. TIk- blindest, the most purely Instinctive, effort of mere pluck has a -lifting power and deserves our thankful admiration. Every degree and every form of courage tends to raise the whole tone of life within tlie range of Its influence in proportion to the amount and the qi; i|ty of the endurance exercised.—Ilibbert Journal.

l OBITUARY j James Anderson Ingram. James Anderson Ingram, son of Anna and Aaron Ingram, was born February 18, 1824, near Knoxville lenn. He had one brother, Robert, | and Slx Bisters, Mrs. Teressa Walden Mis. Elizabeth Allen, Mrs. Mary Mc(Murry, Mrs. Drucilla Clark Mrs | Nancy Stone and Mrs. Malinda Cham- : boi-iain. They are all deceased with l ie exception of one sister, Mrs. -Mary McMurry, aged 87, who resides .at McPherson, Kansas. When a small : boy of ton years, March 10, 1S34 tho entire family started to Indiana! I hey came in a covered wagon, the journey consuming one month. When .they reached their destination, they entered and purchased a farm near ! 1 utnaniville which lias been the iugiain homestead for about seventylive years. Tlie country was new then and each child and grandchild has listened eagerly many times to the relating of tlie hardships and privations that this family endured in getting their home established In his 18th year, 1842, he united with the Presbyterian church at Putnamville during the ministry of Rev. Ransom Hawley. He was a faithful member ami was elected elder March 33. 1SGI. and faithfully served in tins office during the remainder of his ife. in 1SG4 lie was married to Hosana B. Chamberlain. To this union were born four children: James Leroy Ingram of Dennison, Ills.; Mrs. Lila Williams of Greencastle; Airs. Rosa Stock well of Putnainville aud Miss Anjannette ingrain, deceased, in the home Uncle Jim, as lie was familiarly called, was a kind, loving and indulgent father ami a very devoted husband. We all felt so sorry lor grandpa when grandma was called home about two years ago, and know that lie lias been very lonesome without her. His true, honest and exemplary life lias won for him a host of irietids. Everyone was always glad to shake hands with Uncle Jim and he in return welcomed all acquaintances with that cordial uiuu|iier, which showed that he was truly glad to see them. He was a great favorite with all his grandchildren and they will sadly miss his gentle voice and smiling face, but with all, are comforted with the assurance he left, that he has entered into that rest that remaineth for the people of God.
