WALKERTON, INDIANA, MARCH, 2, 1839' The Enterprise denies that the wagon works are to leave Buchanan. Indiana soldiers favoring service pension will hold a convention ig Indianapolis on the 12tb inst. Senator Kenna has been re-elected to the United States Senate by the West Virginia Legislature. The Supreme Court Commission bill has become a law, the Legislature having vetoed the Governor’s veto. Gov. Hovey has vetoed the bill providing for a supreme court commission. He says it is unconstitutional. The bill appropriating $50,000 for the drainage of the Kankakee has passed the state senate, but has not yet passed the iower housel The Shroud, the official organ of the Undertakers’Association, cheerily says that the outlook for the coffin makers for 1889 is brighter thkn euer. Four new stars will soon be added to the American flag, the President having approved the bill admitting the four territories—North and South Dakota, Montana and Washington. The bill admitting the four new territories to statehood provides that North Dakota, Montana and Washington shall each have one representative in Congress, and South Dakota two. The Vanderbilts have purchased a rotary snow plow and are awaiting a good storm to test it. The plow weighs completed 70,000 pounds, can be run thirty miles an hour safely, and throws snow in either direction fifty to one hundred feet. Kansas City Globe: It is expected that as soon as James G. Blaine can get into his cabinet position he will file the beak of the American eagle and in less than thirty days the British lion won’t have hair enough to stuff a boarding house pillow. Residents of northern Indiana who have Michigan matrimonial proclivities are interested in the fact that the Michigan senate has passed a bill making tho marriage license law applicable to non residents. Under the present law residents of other states are not required to take out a license to marry when they come over the Michigan line. The “White Cap” bill has become a law in this state, and it is believed that the measure will soon put a stop to the midnight outrages being perpetrated by this lawless organization. The law provides for a fine of SI,OOO, or less, and fixes the maximum penalty of ten years in the penitentiary for participating in hito-cap outrages. The Campaign Against Tobacco. The Temperance Union, of Indiana, particularly the “department Qf narcotics” of which Mrs. K. Loftin is the Superintendent is urging the legislature to pass the bill forbidding the sale of tobacco to boys under sixteen years of age. Statistics are supplied members showing the harmful effects of tobacco on mind and body. It is claimed that a cigar contains enough poison to kill two men not accustomed to its use. There are twenty thousand lunatics in the country and of these fifteen thousand owe their insanity to the use of tobacco. Tobacco has no food value, and seventy different diseases, the W. C. T. U. claims, are traceable to the use of the weed. Inauguration Prices for Sight Seers. A newspaper correspondent who has taken the pains to ascertain says that the following prices are to be charged on inauguration day at Washidgton for positions in windows, on house tops and other convenient places where the visitors can get a go- d view of the inaugural procession: “Second story windows of ordinary size are scheduled at S2O each for inauguration day. Those of large size are rated at SSO each. Third and fourth story windows of the common size are fixed at sls euch. One room on the third floor of a building fronting on Pennsylvania avenue, with two windows and sleeping accommodations, is rated at $200; one small room, with two windows $125; one small office, with three windows, $175; one parlor w : th three windows, $200; or the windows will be rented singly, at $75 each. Standing room on balconies is ottered at $3 for each periim. Even the roofs of houses are t > utilized, and visitors are informed that thev can have space on the housetops from which to gaze down at the passing procession and inhale the smoke from newhbormg chimneys at the rate oi > 1 each; no reduction tor children.

DRAINAGE OF THE SLANIiAE4KE. better From The Civil Engineer and Surveyor efiTianknkce County, 111., on th© Subject. Tho following is from a letter from Civil Engineer J. L. Clark, of Kankakee Co., Ills. and treats exhaustively on the subject of the Drainage of the Kankakee River Valley. The letter first appeared in the Prairie Farmer. “In answer to your inquiry in your favor of the 31st alt., will say that tho proposed drainage scheme is for the purpose of reclaiming the marsh lands in the valley of the Kankakee River. The importance of the whole matter will be better understood with a brief account of the topography of tho country. Momence is situated fifty miles south of Chicago and seven miles west of the State-line between the States of Illinois and Indiana at which point a ledge of limestone rock makes a natural dam, and in consequence of which, together with other causes mentioned farther on, there is an overflow -of over 400,000 acres in the valley above. The entire valley reaches to South Bend, a place seventy-three miles east and thirty-four miles north of Momence, and comprizes about 1,200,000 acres, The distance in an air-line is about eighty miles, but the valley proper, being in a curve to the south, makes the distance through the center of the valley, eighty-seven miles. The river, for about three miles above Momence, is comparatively straight, but from that point to the head waters of the Kankakee is as crooked as can well be imagined, making the total length of the river from Momence to the head waters two hundred and forty miles, and having within that distance over 2,000 sharp bends. The average slope of the land is 1 3-10 feet to the mile, or 113 feet in all. The amount of land flooded every high water is a strip through the center of the valley, which will average nine or ten miles in width, interspersed with knolls, which in high water become islands. A vast amount of land, outside of the flooded district, is but so little above the level of the water, and is so thoroughly saturated, as to make it very unprofitable to attempt to cultivate it. The soil is a sandy loam, varying in depth from a few inches to 8 feet. For about an average width of one-half mile each side of the river, and nearly the entire length, the land is covered with timber. In this soft, yielding soil the river is constantly changing its course, throwing a sandbar across the throat of one short bend, and cutting out through the tin^ber, , forming another. The marsh lands . are covered with a rank growth of grass, often reaching 6 feet in heigth, , and these are the potent causes, allluded to before, in causing such a gener- . al overflow. i The project on foot is to remove tho i rock at Momence, and then with steam dredges, make a new channel tor the river, which shall be 80. instead cf 240 1 miles in length, John L. Campbell survey in 1882, reported to Gov. Por- ’ ter that the entire cost would be about " $642,000. Other engineers, who have • carefully studied the matter, differ in ’ the estimate of the cost, the main difierence being in the amount of excavation of rock needed at Momence. It is I think, admitted by all engineers that unless the channel through the rock be • large enough to let the water pass freely, straightening the river would drain the upper portions at the expense of . the lower portions. If tho excavation . begins at Momence, it will be one-and--3 one half miles long, and will deepen the f channel 6 feet, but, if it begins at tho f lower point of the rapids, or onu-and--3 one-half miles below Momence, the ) river channel can be deepened about 12 t feet. 1 Os course, the same causes which ■ have made the river so sinuous ar still r in operation, and would make a straight- - ened channel equally crooked in time, f Some provisions must then be made , for keeping the channel straight. The State of Indiana is asked to maKe 3 this improvement of the river-bed, thus giving an outlet. The tributary ditches and under-drainage are to be done by t the land-owners by organizing drainage districts under the existing laws £of the i State. Whatever action the present t Legislature may taKe, I feel confident I that the execueton of this project is onl* ly a question of time. Indiana, with 3 her intelligence and her wealth, cannot 3 long continue to have this vast malarial district pollute her air, nor long afr ford to have the’vast addition to hermal terial wealth (fully $10,600,000) buried by the floods, but will have this now l very sparsely-settled region teeming i with thrifty farms and dotted with » school-houses and churches, which, be- ' yond all comparison, are the greatest i wealth of a commonwealth.” J. L. Clark. It is stated that a country editor in Illinois lately sued thirty subscribers who were owing fol his paper. He obtained judgement against each one of them for the full amount of his claim. About one-half of them filed a ached- ; ule. He had the lot arrested ami sent ’i to jail. The new postal law makes it ■ larceny to take a paper and refuse to 1 pay for it.

Mrs. Julia Thomp^pn is the guest of Miss Louie Cassady and Mrs. Ada Plake for the past week. A Hanson made atrip to Chicago Feb. 15, and bought a stock of dry goods, which he will exhibit in his new store. S. 8. Lemert has contracted for Blake’s store, and had the goods invoiced; but are having come difficulty in settling the discount on them, which will probably cause him to decline his offer. The citizens of this yicinity organized a debating society at the Shiloh school-house which will meet every Thursday evening. All invited to attend. The first question to be debated is: “Which have tho most right to complain of bad usage by the whites; the Negroes or Indians? Jayhawker ISE AND ITEMS. Lou Paul is on the sick list. Frank Barnhart is on the sick list* Wheeling is poor and sledding is n. g, Mr. Taylor who had his leg broken is lying at the point of death. John Bellinger is able to bo up again after an illness of two weeks. Ora Taylor who was run over and severly bruised is able to be about againWin. Mull and family had a pleasant time at J. B. Smith’s Tuesday evening. Captain George says he will not stick his foot in a hay press again fnr it is a little too tight a squeeze. The people who dropped their saw logs along the road to town last Thursday are wishing for a little more snow. JaRKY. * [FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.] Lent begins next Wednesday, March 6. The meadow lark has put in an appearance. The schools closed over in Johnson township last Friday. Charley Wolfe was in South Bend one day last week on business. Jim Heath made a flying trip over to Warsaw on Friday of last week. The funeral of Mrs, Robison was the largest ever witnessed at this place. Harvey Mull and sister Nora visited relatives in Nappanee a few days last week. Rev. Keg, of the U. B. Church, commenced a series cf meetings at the Island church, iast Monday night. Some of our Island people are so industrious they can’t take time to attend their neighbor’s funeral. Never mind, the time is coming when you will stop pressing hay. Pete. NORTH LIBERTY. F.

It is said to be the best spring ever placed in the market, Samuel Williams, one of the pioneers of this township, died at bis home near this village on Sunday evening, Feb- 24, after an illness of many months.

The Surprise party given in honor of Mrs. Maggie Monroe, Thursday evening, Feb. 21, was a success. A girl baby at Henry Haman’s is what makes Henry sing, “Hush be still *as any mouse, there’s a baby in this house.” ’ Mr. Smith, the noted dog charmer, of Monterey, who has been in Tyner for some time, returned to his home this week. James Bradley’s little boy aged 12, had a leg broken last Wednesday while riding on a boh-sled. He was draging his feet when one leg was caught and crushed midway between the knee and ankle.

John Wenger has moved his household effects here from Mishawaka, being compelled to resign his position there on account of ill health- He will make this his permanent home, and is preparing to build a residence this coming summer. Last Tuesday evening between the hours of 5 and 6 the residence of A. B. Di pert, about four miles south-west of here, was discovered to be on fire, being so far under head way as to make all efforts to extinguish it; fruitless. But a very few of articles of his household goods were sayed besides loosing his store of provisions. Mr Dipert has beeu quite unfortunate in this respect, having lost everything by fire some two years ago, the last time, however, house and contents were covered by insurance. An editor in an Ohio town lay dying; the doctor placed his ear to the heroic patient’s heart and exclaimed ; “Poor fellow; circulation all most gone!” The editor raised himself and gasped; “Tis false, we have the largest circulation of any paper in the county.’ He then sank back in the arms of death perfectly satisfied. The good die in peace.
