®l)c Independent WALKERTON. INDIANA. MAY 14, 1592. W. A. ENDLpY, Editor. The great father of waters is on a grand “old high.” Wall-paper men are forming a combine. It has been suggested that this combine should go to the wall. Elder Smarthouse, of Bethel, this state, is lightning on baptizing. He immer M 33 people in 25 minutes. Two dark horses hinted at as likely to develop surprising strength at the Minneapolis convention are Robert T. Lincoln and Major McKinley. John A. Hibberd, of South Bend, was nominated at the Elkhart convention for prosecuting attorney of this, the Thirty-second judicial district. One David Bennett Hill is not looming up quite as loomingly as formerly, jn fact he seems to have gone out of the looming business for the present. The Ligonier Leader completed its .twelfth volume this week. The Leader is up to the mark locally and in politics is able and fearless in advocating the principles it espouses. The following is a fair sample of the many big stories that are being told in connection with the recent terrible windstorm in Kansas: “A young lady, Miss Ella Thorne, was carried with a pillow in her hands half a mile, blown through the side of a barn that had been wrecked by the storm and deposited unhurt upon the back of a horse.” The nomination of Dr. J. S. Dodge, of Elkhart, for congress on the republican ticket seems to meet with universal favor with his political brethren throughout the Thirteenth district. Captain Runyan was, perhaps, first choice of the majority of the party in the district for the place, but this sentiment, however, did not find expression in a substantial manner at the convention held at Elkhart. newspaper is always printed in a

a novel. You will find the brightest boy on practical, sensible every day questions, is the boy who reads the newspapers. An exchange says no one should get mad because a newspaper publisher duns him for money. A dun is not an impeachment of the subscriber’s integrity, but simply an oucropping of the editor’s necessity. For instance a thousand men owe a man from one to ten dollars. He has to dun them to get money to pay his expenses. Instead of getting mad because theeditor asks him for his honest dues, the subscribers should thank the editor for waiting so patiently and pay him like a gentleman. Politics in its pure, undefiled state is the science of government, but to a great many men it seems to have a different meaning. With them politics is the the science of how to get there, how to lift themselves into power and wealth, and the great cardinal principles pt pure government, which seek the welfare of the whole people, are • Jost sight of. The wire-puller and dirty schemer, even though he be a man of inferior ability, will too often succeed in politics, where the man of genuine ability and manly principle will fail completely. In politics it seems that “bray ins are often mistaken forbrains.” Keep your eye on the chronic office seeker. ■ A Boy’s Essay on breath' A little buy in North Side Public School recently handed in to the feacher the following composition on “Our Breath.” “Our breath is made of air. If it were not for breath we would die. The breath keeps going through our liver, our lights and'our lungs. Boys shut up in a room all day should not breathe, they should wait until they get out doorz. Air in a room has carboncide in it, and carboncide is poisner than mad dogs. Once some men was shut up in a hole in India, a carboncide got into that there hole, and afore morning nearly every one of them was dead. Girls wear corsets which squeeze their diagrams too much. Girls cannot run and holler like boys cause their diagrams are squeezed. If I was a girl I would just run and holler so my diagram would grow. Thats all on breath, f—Minneapolis Journal.

THE EPWORTH LEAGUE CONVENTION. In speaking of the Epworth League convention held at South Bend on Tuepday the Tnbuno says: “The convention of the South Bend district of the Epworth League at Grace M • E. church continued through yesterday. The afternoon session vas called to order about 2 o’clock. The first on the programme was a praise service. Miss Bessie Shoemaker, of Walkerton, was dow» to lead this but did not arrive until later. In her absence Rev, Mr. Wise, of Laporte, was qalled upon to conduct the service. Ho readily responded and led the exercise in a happy and impressive manner. A vote was taken on the place of the next meeting and Plymouth won. The meeting will occur the last week of October. Miss Clara L. Pcglow read a paper, “Responsibility of Epworth League Officers,” and Miss Clara Peffley one on “Church Etiquette.” Lively discussions followed. In the evening the exercises opened with prayer by Rev. H. H. Dunlavy, of New Carlisle, followed by a solo by Miss Addie Von Trump and that 1 y a duet by the Misses Edith Loughman and Mary Burns. Rev. T. J. Coultas, D. D., of Terre Haute, followed with a very entertaining lecture. Ilia subject was “Down the Rapids.” His remarks were full of truths and he made many good points. The evening session closed with a solo by Miss Jessie Thayer Faulkner. The session this forenoon opened with a praise service by Rev. 11. H . Dunlavy. Then came reports of chapters and discussions. The election of officers resulted as follows: President, Rev. S. W. Goss, Walkerton; secretary, Mrs. Belle Dressier, Laporte; treasurer, W. F. Schubert, South Bend. One delegate was appointed from each chapter to the state convention next fall. Rev. Mr. Wise read a paper which was ably dicussed and the convention adjourned. It has been the largest and beat convention jn every way that South Bend district has ever held •” AN INTRODUCTION in the through car service of the Wisconsin Central Lines and Northern Pacific Railroad is unneccessary.
