It is the composite opinion of leading financiers all over the country that the financial flurry is about over. AT SRS RIS S ~ The trial for disbarment of Attorney Henry C. Dodge from the practice of jaw, which has been attracting a great deal of interest in the Eikhart county _ eireuit coutt, was conciuded last week, © the dofendant being declared guiltless ~ of the charges proferred against him. " Ex-President Harrison is said to lead " avery quiet life in Indianapolis. He is very seldom seen on the streets, and never goes in society. He has not renewed business relations with his old partners, Messrs. Miller & Elam, but has a desk in the oftice of Howard Cole where he transaets his private business and works on the lectures which he { will deliver at Stanford university this fall. : f e v s i The Topeka Capital interviews a| populist assessor who says: “Since ]i have been engaged in the work of as- | sessing the railroads 1 find they are { assessed in excess of almost any nthm"l class of property.” This is doubtless | an honest fact. It is a common thingi for cities and counties to give “a bonus” | to build a railroad, and as soon as it i reaches them and begins business they ‘ treat it as an open enemy and & foreign | corporation and pile on eyery burden | the law allows. Men whose lumlsi have been doubled in value because | of the railways--—as is the case of Kan- | sas—have been loudest in dvn(mm'ing‘ railways as inimieal to the farmers’ in- l terest. Itis high time the railroads | were given the honest treatment given ‘ all other properties.—lnter Oceaun. ‘ A T——— | A rise is predicted in the prices m‘? « American grain. The crop news from Xurope grow more diseouraging, says

the National Tribune. Eugl:md.‘ JT'rance, and . Germany -arve suifering from a severe and prolonged drouth, which has completely destroyed the grain over large areas, and reduced the productioneverywhere. The situation is so bad that an early repeal or suspension of duties on wheat, maise, barley and rye is regarded as certain in Grermany and France. This means a big demand, at good prices, for American grain. As soon as the financial situation in the interior of the conuntry eases up a little, which it promises to do every week, there will be a rapid rise in prices of all agricultural products. | RS S 0 LSO R RTN W Hicks J uiy Weather. ] Pleasant summer days for the most part will prevail at the opening of July. t By the 4th a warm wave will be well | defined on the western side of thc; country.

THE FOURTH. | e Observed in Walkerton with a nice Little | Celebration. : ~ July 4, 1893, which marks the 117th anniversary of the birth of American independence, was duly honored in this place with a program of exercises embracing a trotting race, bicycle race, fireworks and other amusements. While there was nothing of an elabor‘ate nature on the program, yet it wasl quite interesting and seemed to afford considerable amusement to the large crowd of people that thronged the streets. In fact, everybody seemed to enjoy himself and to be well pleased with the day’s attractions. The crowd was one of the largest ever congregated in this place, but notwithstanding this there was little disturbance or fighting, and the day’s festivities passed off with but one fight and one | incarceration in the cooler to record as the day's list of eriminal happenings. At 2:30 o'clock the trotting race was | flma stie panas gi A R half mile stretch. = The horses entered | were owned by M. D. Leßoy, Cole Woodworth, Will ILeßoy, Frank Thomas and Nel Harschberger. The race was tvo best ont of three hents;z ,l‘zrst money, $6; second, si. It W:ls; quite an interesting race and aruusvdl some enthusiasm. Myron Leßoy woi | first money and Cole \\'uod\\'m‘th! second, Will LLeßoy taking third place. | The bicyele race was the most inter E esting feature on the program. This | took place at 3 o’cloek. The muh-sl-i ants were Walter Atwood, Chas. M. | Stephens, 1.8, MeDatflie, of this pl:h'!‘.? and George Lesh, of Teegarden. Race | two best out of theee heats, one and an eighth mjle track. The first heat | was won by Chas. M. Stephens and the two succeeding ones by Walter At- | wood, who took first money. In the third heat an unfortunate aeccident | I«wvurx'm{ to Stephens, who ran against | a person on the track and was thrown off and quite severely bruised up, being ‘;u!mhlu to enter the following heat | But for this aceident he would have I\\'“n second money. The fourth heat ‘l\\';m run for second and third money : | being won respectively by I S. Me- | | Duffie and George lLesh. The (first | 2 prize was $lO, second §3 and third $5 %'l‘m- race aroused great interest ;n.:l; | enthusiasm and some betting was done ih.\' local sports on their respective fa- | VOT'LLES.,

Follpwing this was a number of foot races for prizes in which quite a representation of the rising generation participated. R In the evening there was a fine display of fireworks together with balloon races, and the display was kept up in two or three different parts of town for two hours at least. In addition to the general display A. C. Hardenbrook and John Braden each had neat little exhibitious of fireworks in front of their places of business. During the day the Walkerton cornet band furnished music at intervals from the band stand and their playing was excellent and praised by everybody. Walkertor has had greater celebrations than that of last Tuesday, but taken all in all it was quite satis- | tactory and in a measure, at least, re- ’ paid the people for their trouble in l coming to Walkerton to spend their Fourth, : | PRI AR HAMLET, | Rev.

After the program refreshments were served, and just as everybody was busily engaged in disposing of the ‘many good things which bad been pro- | vided, an alarm of fire was sounded, i, and one of Dan Haley’s hay stacks ! | was seen to be on fire, but by hard | ' work on the part of everybody the fire i | was Lept from spreading bevond a l | single stack and even a partof that was | saved, Had it not been for the large number of people present several | hundred tons of hay and twolarge hay barng with their presses would lx:n"v | been swept away - Joe Welsh is painting his house and | saloon a pea green color, trimmed with sage, | The dance in the grove was well - f patronized and everything went quiet I ly and nice, ; 3 Not a single fuss heve the 4t 1, , o , LBemember that Dr. Dowell extracts ! teeth without pain by the use of vital | ized air.
