DeBaun's beautiful maple grove, one quarter mile northeast of Middletown, September 17, 1886. Good speakers will be present and deliver addresses, among whom are Mr. John Chaney, Elders Fuson, Cutsinger, etc. The Prairie Creek Sunday Bchool will render a splendid program, Consisting of suitable vocal music, essays, recitations, etc., supplemented by the various Sunday school organizations which have been invited and will be present. Prairie Creek Cornet Band, under the leadership of Prof. Wal Evans, will do justice to the occasion by interspersing the various exercises with some of its latest and best music, thus lending a feature which will make this the grandest picnic of the season. All persons are cordially invited to be present. Come early and stay late. Put away your cares and enjoy yourself alike with hundreds of others. [The GAZETTE is glad to print the news of all suoh gatherings. It is glad to believe that it is the great medium through which all the people of Vigo and surrounding counties of all political and religious faiths may commuriioate with one another, in times of joy and of sorrow, whatever may seem to be for the general welfare. It is desirable that there should be one paper which all take and through which all the people in a given neighborhood, for instance, as in this case, may be reached, and the GAZETTE is glad and proud that it is that paper.]

1HE OLDSETTLERS.

This Morning's Session/1

The third meeting of the Old Settlers Association of the Wabash valley is taking plaoe today. The first of these meetings was held in 1875 when the association, thanks to the energy of the late General Steele and others, was organized. A book was prepared in which the old settlers wrote their names, the places of their nativity, their ages, and the year when they came to live in the Wabash Valley. This list, and the account of the past meetings, with the_articles of association in the hand writing of Gen. Steele is a very interesting record. Some of the old men and women were too advanced in years to write their own names and some never learned how to write their own names, schools not being numerous in early days, so that this service was performed for them by the clerk, but most of the signatures are genuine autographs and the collection is a most valuable one. The names and the articles of association have already been printed in the GAZETTE.

After the organizatian no second meeting was held until ten years had elapsed and in June 1885 the old settlers met again at the Opera House in this city and after most interesting exercises, presided over by Col. R. W. Thompson, adjourned to meet again at the oall of the committee. It was decided to have another meeting, of the Vigo members more particularly, at the Fair Grounds,which are now beautifully clean and well kept, today. The morning was pretty chilly and the crowd was small. There were about as many old ladies as old men Col. Thompson, who was expected to preside, did not arrive and after considerable delay Capt. James Hook, whose clear memory retains reminisoenses of nearly all the pioneers of fifty years ago and who has himself always taken a prominent part in Terre Haute's advancement, arose about noon in the absence of a chairman, and called the meeting to order. He moved that Mr. Woolsey Barbour be elected chairman which was agreed to unanimously. Mr. Barbour suggested an adjournment until one o'clock in order to let all dine. It was a basket meeting and those who came unprovided were cordially invited by the others to share their provisions

Rescued From Death.

William J. Coughlin, of Somerville, Mass., says: "In the fall of 1876 I was taken with bleeding of lungs followed by a severe cough. I lost iny appetite and flesh, and was confined to my bed. In 18771 was admitted to the HospitalThe doctors said had a hole in my lung as big as a half dollar. At one time a report went around that I was dead. I gave up hope, but a friend told me of Dr. William Hall's Balsam for the Lungs. I got a bottle, when, to my surprise, I commented to feelbetter, and today I feel better than for three years past.

Jasper Newton Woods.

A correspondent from Pieraon township writes us that Jasper Newton Woods has bought anew buggy. The GAZETTB rejoices at this evidence of prosperity on Jasper's part. It also rejoices because it knows that now, having the means of riding to town, Jasper will at once ride up to the GAZETTE office and pay that old subscription bill, just as all the persons who owe for the paper are doing. We hope by next week to announce that Jasper has paid and then will try and jog the memory of some other person who owes us. It takes money and lots oi it to run a paper.

'The ProperStudv of Mankind is Man," Says the Illustrious Pope. If he had included woman in the list, he would have been neaier the truth, if not so poetical. Dr. R. V. Pierce has made them both a life study, especially woman, and the peculiar derangements to which her delicate system is liable. Many women in the land who are acquainted with Dr. Pierce only through his "Favorite Prescription," bless him with all their hearts, for he has brought them the panacea for all those chronic ailments peculiar to their sex such as leucorrhoea, prolapsus and other displacements, ulceration, "internal fever," bloating, tendency to internal cancer, and other ailments.

Thieves at Sullivan.

THE SHOCK IN mpiANAPOLIS.

A Distinct Quiver Which Was Generally Noticed and Caused Some Excitement.

Indianapolis Journal:—At 8:56, last night, a distinct quiver, recognized as an earthquake shock, was felt in this city. Unlike the shock of nearly two years ago, it did not exhibit a rhythmic motion from west to east and, returning, from east to west, but was simply a shiver, with no markings as to direction, either in its coming or going. It lasted, with brief intermissions, fully ten seconds.

There was no little excitement at the Denison House. In the upper stories the guests, in alarm, ran out into the corridors, and some found their way down to the office. One of these, A. L. Mason, informed a number of gentlemen of the shook, which had not been felt ou the ground floor, and Pool Commissioner Doherty stepped outside to look about. As he did so, the tremor continuing, the key-stone of one of the second-story windows fell, coming within five or six feet of striking him. The stone weighed about twenty-five pounds, and Mr. Doherty's escape may be considered a lucky one.

PERRY MANIS.

He is Dying and He Wants Out of Prison.

Perry Manis, who killed Mrs. Nelson near St. Mary's three years ago and was sent to the penitentiary for life, has written to Judge Mack, who was his lawyer, along letter stating that he is about to die with consumption and wants to be pardoned. The murder, as our readers will recollect, was one of the most villainous ever brought to light. Judge Mack wrote to him that he could not help him in the way of a patdon.
