You'll kill kit with that toy. But the youngster said he would riscuit.” In some portion of LaPorte county there has been no rain of any importance since July 4th, over two months 1 ago. Several of our merchants had tha windows in their business buildings artistically lettered this week, by an itinerant following that vocation.

A novel game of base ball was played between the Stillwell and Island nines last Monday. The latter club was assisted bv three or four plavers from WalKerton. Nine innings were played, at the end of which the score stood 105 to lin favor of the Island. Notwithstanding the overwhelming defeat, it is said that the beaten boys are Stillwell. One hundred and twenty-one tickets were sold at this place last Sunday for : the excursion to Lake Maxinkuckee over the Lake Erie railroad. Three different railroads ran excursion trains to the laKe, and all were well laden with passengers. The excursionists from this place speaK in favorable terms of the merits of Lake Maxenkuckee as a summer resort. The number of people present was estimated — by Joe Endley to be about 4,000. Eastman, the B. & O. engineer who narrowly escaped death by jumping from his engine in the Republic wreck, had a similar narrow escape the other day in a wreck at Defiance, O. He jumped from his engine barely in time to save himself. His train ran into a freight standing on a switch which had carelessly been left open. Nobody was seriously injured. It is reported that Eastman has been discharged from the employ of the B. & O. company, the complaint against him being that he was not watching his business when the accident occurred.

Philadelphia Store. “A youth, tilling up with bad liquor Became such an obstinate kiquor, And made such a din, That the cops ran him in, W hich obliged him to pawn his gold tIqUOF.” A very successful business man remarked to us recently that the business which would not justify a liberal use of printer’s ink was too insignificant to be worthy of his attention.—Mentone Gazette. NOTICE. All open accounts must be paid or secured at (nice. \\ e are selling out the stock and closing up th > business of the Philadelphia Store and need every cent of our money. J. S. Bi nder. The Walkerton Independent has promoted itself, gone into new rooms in a new brick, from a hich it is ready to tire red hot shot at every enemy. It bohb declares that the “American tlag floats defiantly from its sanctum window evidencing our patriotism.’’—LaPorte Public Spirit. The authorities of South Bend have ordered all unmuzzled dogs running at large in that city to be shot by the police. This is a sensible measure and one that should be followed by all towns large and small, during the ext reme hot months when dogs are most subject to an attack of ral ies. Bentley A: Rogi rs' circus and concert exhibited in this place last week on Friday evening to a fair-sized audience. The entertainment was very good considering the ju ice of admission, 25 cents.

A cordial invitation is extended to all. By order of Committee. NAPPANEE VS. LAPORTE. The Nappanee and LaPorte clubs played an interesting game of ball at the former place last Thursday. The game was called promptly at 2:30 p. m., with LaPorte at the bat. The game waxed warm, and was very close, until the LaPortes met with a misfortune in the way of an accident to Bates, their catcher, by which he was rendered un- I able to play for several innings. This accident operated seriously against the visiting club, and had it not been for that the result of the game would undoubtedly have been quite different. The Nappanee club is a strong team and can play ball for all there is in it, and when they once gain an advantage they know how' to make the best of it. Nine innings were played, at the end of which the score stood 11 to 3 in favor of Nappanee. Rupel, of Walkerton, pitched for the LaPortes. A delegation of 41 from LaPorte and 10 from Walkerton witnessed the game. Arrangements are being made by which the LaPorte club is to play against our local nine on the home grounds, Aug. 27th.

Stetson’s Uncle Toin’s Cabin Co., exhibited under canvas in this place last week on Friday evening. About 600 people were in attendance. The company could hardly be classed as a third rate one. The play was wretchedly butchered, and the only redeeming feature ot the whole performance was the concert. In 1886 there were granted in 53 counties m Indiana 825 divorces. Os this number 581 were on complaint of the wife, (hi account of drunKenness the number was 78; cruel treatment, L>6; abandoment, 308; adultery, 103. All the counties did not report. It is likely that the whole number was between 1200 and 1400. Commissioner Place says there are plenty ot cucumbers in the immediate vicinity of Walkerton. The capacity I of the F. N J. Heinz picKle factory has I been increased so as to pickle for the market ninety thousand bushels of cu cumbers. The pickle business at M aik, erton is quite an industry and steadly on the increase.—South Bend Times. County Superintendent Moon has selected Mishawaka as the place for holding regular county institute,‘which will take place Aug. 22. The following prominent educators will take part in the proceedings: Prof. W. W. Parsons, president ot the Indiana State Normal; Mrs. Mont Meßea, principal of the Ma non high school: Jas. K. Beck, of the State University, and others. 'The American Farmer says: “Land plowed deep in the fall will produce, on an average, a fully one-third larger yield than the same land plowed in the spring, besides being in a more advantageous form for cultivation. Deep fall plowing mellows the land causes it to yield up more readily the fertilizing qualities of the soil and retail s better the elements of plant food. Let any farmer observe the difference in the crop production over the same quality of soil plowed in the spring. Especially will the difference be seen in a dry season.” LaPorte Argus: Miss Etta Molloy, the adopted daughter of Mrs. Emma I Molloy, is staying with friends in Springfield, M >., awaiting Mrs. M.s trial, which will probably take place the latter part of this month. The impression still prevails with many people that (’ora Lee is the adopted daughter of Mrs Molloy, but this is incorrect. Etta was adopted when she was a small child and when the Molloy s lived at Elkhart. Cora then lived in this city a nd did not become acquainted with Mrs. M. until the latter came to LaPorte to live several years later. She then became Mrs. M. s housekeeper, and remained with her in that capacity , but was never adopted as her daughter and never claimed to be. The reports to the contrary arose from the mistake of a it - porter when the Graham tragedy was first developed. Death of Miss Grace Giberson. We take the following aeount of the death of Miss Grace Giberson from the Williamson, N. Y. Sentinal. Miss. Giberson was a niece of Jacob Giberson, of this place. During a sojourn of about a year in Walkerton, she gained many friends who will learn w ith regret the news of her death. Our village was visited by the great reaper. Death, on Friday the 15th, and carried away one of our young ladies, leaving a stricken family to mourn her early death. Miss Grace Giberson had for years been a member of her uncle Chancey Smith’s family and was by them very greatly beloved. She made their home a cheerful place ami was a comfort to Mrs. Smith who has been in feeble health for years. She tilled the place of a child to them and found in their house a home after the death of her mother. She was taken sick the morning of July Bth, and after one short week passed away surrounded by her weeping associates. The funeral w'as held on Sunday at the M. E. Church, attended by a large concourse of friends and relatives, the church being filled while many were unable to gain admittance. Rev. H. C. Andrews preached an impresive sermon from an appropriate text, and amid a profusion of flowers she was borne to the city of the dead and laid to rest among the silent sleepers. The Earnest Workers, of whom she was a member, attended the i uneral in a body, and laid their boquets on her casket. The church was tastefully arranged with flowers, and the organ which she had played for a long time was draped in mourning, and its keys were softly touched by skillful fingers, and gave forth tender tones as the friends passed by to take the last look at her faded features. For some time past she had been the organist at the M. E. Church, and she will be missed very much, not only at home, but in the choir and in society. Her uncle and aunt have the sympathy of the community in this deep affliction.
