And the Names of the Lucky Parties Announced,

About ten days ago this paper announced that on April 3rd, a license was granted by Clerk John T. Woodward, and that the same had not been put on record. An invitation was extended to our readers to guess the names of the fortunate parties, and as a result this office was deluged with all sorts of missives. They came from Blooming-

ton, from the out townships, aid in several instances voles were rast by persons who formerly resided in this county, but who now reside in other counties and states. Most of the votes were cast by p ople in this city, and it was amusing to hear them argue that their guesses were the correct ones. The names of the persons whose marriage license will now be placed on record are Absalom Storms and Miss Laura May, to well-known young people living southwest of the city. On April 3, Clerk Woodward was asked to issue a license to these persons, and as they desired to surprise their friends, t he re quest was made that it be nut put

on record for ;t few weeks. Among the several hundr. d vote? cast was one tor Mr. Storn:s and Mi?s May, by attorney Thomas J Sare, ahd he is entitled to, and will receive one year's subscription to this paper. We regret that we cannot announce the marriages oi all the good looking and eligible young men whose names appeared in these columns, but we will live in hope, la!:y believing that To lesson one's carps mid take i.wuy strife. Every young niun should gi't himself a 'ife Agent Helton worked hard for the excursion's success, ai;d was greatly pleased over the patronage given In Monroe Co. people.

BOBBED THEIR TAILS.

And As a Side Issue Cat Harness Into Shreds,

Saturday night Judge Cunning delivered his famous lecture, "Ram

bles in Europe," atHindostan to a large and appreciative audience. The Judge hired a horse at May's livery stable to transport him to the place of his lecture early in the evening. The horse whose name is "John," is a fine appearing sorrel

and valued highly by his master,

I "Uncle Johnny" May. The Judge j hitched the animal near the buildjing where he was to deliver his

lecture. There was also a number of other horses hitched in the vicinity. After the lecture was con-

j eluded and the Judge had dismissed ! the audience he went forth to get his steed. But lo! the Judge could hardly recognize the steed he had previously hitched to a post. He was minus a tail. The Judge was at a loss to account for the transformation scene until examination proved that some miscreant had maliciously, felouiosly cut or caused to be cut the aforesaid horse's

tail. Said tail had disappeared also much harness had been, disp iled,l:y knives in the hands of parties unknown. Other parties presen1; who owned horses made an inspection of their equine 's tails and found seven more missing. Whoever wer? guilty of the act did their work well and if caught ought to lie given a free pass to ' 'Jeff' ' good only return iug ten years hence. Uncle Johnny May is inconsolable over the loss of his favorite horse's tail, and said he would not have had it happen for a fifty dollar bill. He is at loss who to proceed against fcr damages and is now receiving advice from his friends in that line,

no one method being presented by any two persons.

Mrs. May me Eckmau of Indianapolis and Mrs. John E. Steele of Ellettsville will attend the Oolite reception next Thursday night.

Mr. Will Feltus, contracting agent for the Pennsylvpnia railway company, was in the city Saturday night, the guest of his brother, H. J. Feltus.

Dr. Joseph Swain leaves this morning on a week's lecturing tour to county institutes at Martinsville; (ireensburg and Shoals.
