The examination questions sent out for the final examination for those pupils of the common schools who wished diplomas, proved to be unusually hard. Several teachers who looked over the questions declared that they were harder than the questions usually put out for teachers’ examinations. They were so hard, in fact, that twenty of the twentytwo taking the examination failed. A considerable number of men also attempted to answer the questions in arithmetic as found in the County Superintendent’s office, and there was a general shaking of heads over some of them. Jesse Smythe, a thirteen-year old boy from Greencastle Township, carried off the honors. He made a grade of 9(5 per cent in arithmetic, where nearly all the others failed. He also made 97 In history, 100 in grammar and loo in spelling, which makes a total grade that any one might lie proud of.

SHOOT DOCKS TILL APR. 15

The New Law Regulating the Shooting of Ducks and Other Water Fowl in Indiana is Now in Force And it is Legal to Rag Them Until the Middle of April.

An amendment to the hunting laws of the state of Indiana, which was passed at the recent session of the Legislature, and which became a law as soon as it was signed by the Governor, will be of special interest to duck hunters. The law formerly closed the season for ducks on the first day of April but the new amendment leaves the season open until April 15. This applies to other water fowl included in the open shooting season as well as wild ducks. The new law also contemplates that duck shooters shall have until the first day of May to sell or otherwise dispose of the water fowl they have killed during the open season. The amendment to the hunting laws which was enacted at the session of the legislature just cloned contained an emergency clause and that is the reason it became effective as soon as the governor's signature was attached.

Following one of his sermons, Mr. Sunday asked all who wished to be prayed for to rise. Nearly every one of the 8,000 people arose. .Mr. Sunday prayed as follows while standing upon a chair: “Jesus, that is a magnificent tribute to our Interest In Thee and to Thy cause. I am proud of the men and women at Springfield, and I know you are, too, Jesus. I am sure the devil isn’t. I am sure he hates to see them get up. 1 am sure he tried to keep them down, and that he said to that girl, ‘You keep your seat; you know- you have not done right.’ I am sure he said to that young man, ‘You keep your seat; you know where you were last night and others know where you were last night, and you went home drunk, too.’ 1 am sure he said to that man, ‘You keep still and make no move; you know you cussed him today and he is sitting over there. Don’t listen to Mr. Sunday. You keep your seat.’ Say, devil, you have gone up and down these aisles tonight and in and out among the seats and you have done your dirty best to keep men and women down, but they have made a stiff fight and they are too manly and they are too womanly. We hate your cause, devil. We hate the sin you make us commit. We hate it because we are ashamed. We hate it because it brought a blush to our cheek and a tear to our eye, and made our mother blush and our sisters ashamed to call us ‘brothers.’ It led us to put a stain upon the family escutcheon. It made the name synonymous with sin. We are ashamed. And what do you want us to add to what we have already done, devil? Aren’t you satisfied? God curse you! Aren’t you satisfied with all the wreckage you have caused? Aren’t you satisfied with the houses of ill-fame that you have packed full? Aren’t you satisfied with the men and women Vou have robbed of reason, and especially from our loved ones? Aren't you satisfied with the jails and penitentiaries you have packed full, and with the police stations? Aren’t you satisfied with all the wreckage In the stale beer joints and the victims in the dives ami the hum haunts and the iniquity In the red-light district, and all the thieving and the cursing, and the lying, and the blasphemy, and the adultery? Oh, devil, aren’t you satisfied? Do you want us to do more? Oh, God pity you. We won’t, because through Jesus Christ we are going to soe a now Springfield, devil. 1 tell you, you have cursed yourself. You have stayed here long enough. Do you hear? The forces of righteousness, in the church and out of it, Catholic and Protestant, and all, are going to arise aud we are going to put a stop to your work, devil. You will have cold feet when you see the forces that will take their stand for truth and righteousness. And there won’t tie a traitor. We will all be patriots in these days. Lord, hear us^ bless us; bless our wives; bless our little ones; bless, we pray Thee, old | Springfield. Lord, hear us arid lead us and love us and forgive us and we will p/aise You forever, through Jesus Christ, our blesspd Savior. Amen.” The above prayer was read Sunday 1 evening as a prelude to the sermon ! at the Christ Church. Pastor Rudy is calling attention to the methods j which are being used to arouse and , iwaken the present day church. Next | Sunday night lie will have another of Billy’s prayers and another sermon will be preached on “Caught in the Current.”

FRANK GRISMER IS DEAD DEATH STOPPED TRIP HOME

End Comes to Man Who Has Been Raggagemastcr at tin- Yandalin Depot for Years, at His Home on Hlooiuington Pike Wednesday, at Near 7:$o O’clock—Aftoplexy the Cause.

John S. Duncan, Who Died in the St. Anthony Hospital In Terre Halite Thursday, Had Gotten From His Red and Prepared to Come to Greencastle When the End Came.

RIS DEATH WAS VERY SUDDEN BROTHER HAD JUST ARRIVED

After having eaten a hearty supper and apparently in the best of health, Frank Grissmer, 4 9 years old, suddenly died at his home on the Bloomington Pike, just south of town Wednesday night at near 7:30 o’clock. Apoplexy was the cause of his death. Grissmer, for more than 19 years, had been with the Vandalia Railroad Company as baggagemaster and in other station positions. He was a cheerful, happy fellow and most popular with those who knew him. Mr. Grissmer went to his home at near 6 o’clock that night, after having completed his day’s work, and appeared to be in the best of spirits and health. After eating a hearty supper, he played with one of his grandchildren, who was at his home, for a short while. He then went into an adjoining room. Mrs. Grissmer supposed that her husband was going to retire, as he generally went to bed quite early, on account of having to get up very early in the morning. Soon after Mr. Grissmer had gone into the next room his wife heard him, as she believed, snore. She stepped Into the room and found her husband lying on the bed. His clothing had not been taken ^off. She spoke to him but lie did not answer. She then shook him, believing that he was asleep. He did not respond, however, and it is probable that he was dead at that time. Dr. Hawkins was called hut nothing could be done when he arrived as Mr. Grissmer had then been dead for sime time. Wednesday afternoon Mr. Grissmer witnessed the accident at the Vandalia station in which Fred Parks, of Putnamville, was struck by a train and injured. Dr. Hawkins believes that the excitement caused by the accident might have resulted in the rupture of a blood vessel and caused the stroke of appoplexy. Beside a widow, Mr. Grissmer, leaves three sons and four daughters to mourn his death.

Deafness Cannot he Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and that Is by constitutional remedies.. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out andthlstube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio.

The City Council fulfilled its part of the agreement witli the traction company Wednesday and now everything is lovely and the goose hangs high between the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Company aud the City of Brazil. As the ordinance drawn up to provide for the repeal of the six mile speed limit had been held up by the Council for several weeks on account of dissatisfaction over the changes ma^e by the traction company and the taking off of a number of cars, Father Bauer as chairman of the special committee which arranged the settlement with the traction company appeared before the Council last night and urged that body to !:ccp it. promise to him and the traction company. Father Bauer stated that the traction company had complied with the conditions of the settlement and it was now up to the Council to act. He stated that one car had been left out of the schedule but that this was corrected at once as soon as he called the traction company's attention to it. He also reminded the Council that the traction company had put on another car between this city and Harmony in the evening and that they had complied with their part of the agreement. He said that he supposed that when the committee of which lie was a member had been discharged with thanks that their work was ended but that he had found it necessary to come before the Council again, to discuss the traction question.—Brazil Daily News.

investigate and Consider. “There are none so blind as those who will not see; there are none so deaf as those who will nht hear.” The birth and development of Osteo-^ pathy Is the latest and best method ; of healing the sick and prejudice should not keep the afflicted from giving it a fair trial. Many a sick person has failed to regain health because he was afraid to try a method of treatment which to him seemed new. Don’t forget, old customs, old habits, old modes of life are giving

way to new.

Do not be counted with those who are too stubborn to change their minds. If you are anxious to improve and struggling to get well, do not be held hack in the throes of misery by foolish prejudice, and scepticism. If you delay overlong the undertaker is apt to overtake you before you can see the osteopaths. They “have the goods” and are deliverying them every Tuesday and Friday at 117 South Jackson Street,

To have been massaged, magnetized, 'electrized, hypnotized, mind cured and dosed with drugs does not toll you what Osteopathy could do for you.
