Anti-hat-tippliig Societies ate being Organized by the gentlemen of some towns. It is argued that tipping the hat is ’foppish, and is a fashion . more followed by “mashers” than any other class; Many-ft gentleman wly? does not tip his hat to the ladles has a keener bense of respect for the female sex than the chaps who seeK to captivate by the ostentatious tipping oLthe hat; An exchanges says a lad was seen in front of a neighboring newspaper office, Weeping as if Lis heart would break, 6nd WB.> asked what was the matter? ‘‘Oh, dad’s gone up stairs to lick the editor.’’ “Well, has he come down?” “Pieces of him have, ” the bby replied, While he engaged in a fresh outburst of tears, “and I’m expecting the rest ot him every minute. An lowa editor closes a rhapsodical eulogium of his State in the following style: “When the toll-call is sounded on the judgement day, and the heavens tre rolled together as a scroll and the reverberations of wrecked and ruined Worlds peal forth the fiat to eternal rest I want to hahg my bones on the galleytuck of immortality and register in fourline pica aS a man from lowa.” The dimensions of the new State House at Indianapolis are aS follows; South ahd North fronts 185 feet.

Third story^ 16 feet 6 inches, George Drummond, otherwise Lord Drummond, who died penniless in a New York hospital a few days ago, was disowned by his family in Europe for marrying out of his social circle. Coming to America to make his home, he was able to support his wife and child until overtaken by consumption. He could have beeij rich .and. honored if he had consented to abandon his wife, but there Was enough gemiine nobility in his character not to purchase alleged nobility at such a price. He preferred poverty, and death to dishonor. When the business men of a town fail to advertise, says an . exchange, they diminish the importance and trade of the place, and permit more enterprising localities to take the . latter’ from them. Although done for their indb Vidual interests, advertisers should be looked upon by the citizens Os the town Where they reside as public benefactors, and thijy should be encouraged accordingly/ The merchant that advertises extensively is worth more to a town and Its people than forty that never show themselves in print, and for that reason he should always be given the preferencein local patronage, providing, of course; that he is a fair and honorable business man. • •. ... One of our exchanges says that while some inen were blasting rock at Milltown, Crawford county, Indiana, a few’ days ' ago, the entrance to what is thought to be a vast cave was uncovered. Four men have since attempted to ascertain the extent of the cavern. They entered-it at night, and had a thrilling experience. After passing a beautiful gallery they came to a bank of earth and proceeded to cut through it. When a hole was pierced providing a passage beyond, foul air flowed in from the unexplored part,which extinguished lamps and candles, and the men almost asphyxiated. One of them' became vio* lentjy iU and vomited. Attempts to stride matches failed, they refusing-to burn. ‘’Nearly exhausted, the party crept through t^edarkness inward, the. entrance, but werelost i» a-side gallery, which was probably their salvation, as they were enabled there to strike alight They reached the surface at 1:30 o’clock next morning, after being in the cave three hours. All were very much prostrated by their experience.

f \ ’ 7 , An old and highly esteemed fellow citizen said to me, “The newspapers devote too milch space to base ball to please a majority of tlieif readers. I was at the Detroit game the other day '‘and a glance over the ctowd showed 'me that the hoodlum element predominuned; NeW-that isn’t the elenfhiit that Supports newspapers and therefore isjt’i ' ’ enHYlctt to The \ next -tiii^sttnie pid.fttid highly? etD teemed citisen was for an hour the sole spectator Os a pocket edition game of 1 base ball at' Calamity corners, but I ' haven’t seen him to ask what 'OlOlllOlll predominated among the spectators.^ • “Loafer” in South Bbrid Sunday News.

I am sotry this has to be corrected, for I will give Mr. Townsend credit with 2 strike outs in six innings, ahd the first game he ever,pitched,- As for Burns' “off day/' there were six other fellows in-the same fix, to console him. McMurray and Ali grini played Wldl/ Had we known that the 49 people' Wh’o witnessed the game (I don’t include the 81 boys and men who climbed the fence), were so disinterested, Mr. Rupel might have pitched for you and given you less; We were quite interested at the noise made by the boys, and the respect shown Us by the gentlemen on the fence, besides being left to walk from the ground and carrying the bats. We paid for hacks to 1 the grounds and would have done the same 1 on returning had any accommodations been offered us. The correct score at Nappanee was as follows: Nappanee, 14. 1 Walkerton, 9. Respectfully, D. M. Petrib. Indiana State Fair. The experience of thirty-four years , will be brought to bear by the manage 2 meat in their efforts to excel in evefy , particular with the coming State Fair, commencing September 19th, being one week earlier than usual. They realize the importance of sustaining the reputation wliich has become national in its character, having been the pioneer by introducing the principal features of the Model Fair Os this day and age. This is no vain boast, as facts will prove, and letters of inquiry from distant State Fair is a credit to the State. It was the first to offer premiums without limit “open to the world;” The first State Association to own its Fair ground and othei* property. The first to adopt the system of paying awarding committees. The fltst to create the superintendent of each department from tile members of the Board. The first to abolish the sale of liquor oil the Fair ground." The first to abolish the offering of premiums on machinery without actual tests. The first to create and erect a large Exposition building in connection with the State Fair, and last but not least the first to organize a Woman's Association to take charge of that part of the Fair which has proved an immense success. The Board has distributed over a quarter of a million dollars in premiums, and has about $200,000 iu Fair ground property. They have this season invested SIB,OOO in improvements and extension of the Fair grounds. The main building has been re-roofed and remodeled, with a thorough pointing inside and out and the grounds . put in complete order. At present the indication^ are that some of the exhibitors in their delay of applications for space and stalls and pens, “are going to get left. ’’ President Cleveland is confidently expected to be present.
