It is not necessary to be a craok in order to be a good business man. “# ‘ Admiral Dewey's new uniform will deprive him of one habitual feature of his every day dress—a negligee shirt. The Indianapolis News was sold to L. M. Jordan, of Cincinnati, last Wednesday, for $936,000. Jordan bought it for C. R. Williams and Dullivan Smith. The Mishawaka Democrat has now entered its ninth year. It is a good, lively newspaper and Bro. O'Neill well deseves the success he is meeting with. S —— . The WarkerToN INDEPENDENT is on our table once more. Bro. Endley is still its editor and the paper is still one of the very best local newspapers in the state. This is as it was ever since he published it; the only difference we observe is that the paper has grown with [ the town.—Warsaw Union.

Hobson now has to take a back seat and listen to the ways of his successor, the Kissing Bug, which has gained ivsi way to the lips of the fair damsels of eastern cities. This bug seems to be doing as good work as Hobson did and is fast gaining the atteation of the young ladies and old maids. With this issme the IwpEPENDENT closes its 24th year and the 13th year under the present management. The paper has quadrupled its job printing and advertising business and doubled its size and its circulation in the thirteen years and is now one among the best newspaper properties in northern Indiana. RB AT SRR S General Funston, the gallant Kansas hero, expresses the true American sentiment when he says: “On general principles I am not an expansionist, but | I believe that since we were, by an unfortunate train of circumstances thrown into this thing, we should stay with it to the bter end, and rawhide theeel bullet ed Asiatic ruffians until they | yell for mercy. And after the war I want the job of professor of American history in Luzon University when they build it—and I'll warrant that the new generation of Filipinos will know better .“thlnb‘gggtt in the way of the band‘wagon of 'Arnglo-Saxon progress and decency.” I S SRRSO An inhm%;t:tement of the export ~ “trade of the U States is made by hd Commercial Times as " follows: “Exports of American manufactured goodgduring March amounted to $36,025,533; an average of $1,400,000 ~ for each working day. This is a new - record, indicating a remarkable expansion of our foreign trade, and prospects | are the gain is permanent. For the first time our exports of manufactured goods amounted to a third of our total exports. A remarkable fact in this cennection is that over half the sales of manufactures were made in the great manufacturing countries. OQur exports of manufactures during nine months ending with March exceeded our imports of manufactures about 20 per cent.” Common Sense, | It is sometimes said that common ‘ sense is the most uncommon of all ad-i mirable qualities, and yet we continue to denominate it by a title that implies that it is so widely diffused that almost every one not an idiot possesses it, says i a writer in the Farm Jonrnal. | The reason that common sense is so | unusual is evident the moment you re-!; flect that it largely consists in seeing | things as they really are. Most of us look at the facts with which we deal through colored spectacles. We have our prejudices, and the worst of it is that we are not conscious of them, and therefore can not rid ourselves of them by an effort of will. We are constitu-| tionally hopeful or foreboding, courage- | ous or timid, and this predominant§ mood colors our judgment. This twist | in our perception just robs us of that; sanity and correctness of view which belong to ihose rare beings who have com- | - Probably it is impossible to help peo- | ple o acquire this faculty by any ad nition or training. Fixperience is the best and almost the only teacher But you have conferred a lasting benefit on the average man when you have su ceeded in creating a wholesome s picion in his mind that it is just possible that the goodness of the comm n sense people is not measured by his ow: ideas of things. Bring in Your Huckiberries We are in the market for huckle berries. Bring them in. We pay th highest market price. Brubaker & Blaine L

Herman M;);—r:‘;\ll)o:\ruld lad, of Michigan City, was badly injured Thursday of last week by a horse. While taking a pail of water to the horse, he stumbled and fell in the stall. The ' horse, being scared by the water dashing ‘on his legs and the rattle of the pail, began to jump around, trampling the voy

lundurfunt and kicking him. He may not live. Quite a little pleasure and excitement was caused by the horse buyers Monday when they tried to bring their steeds from the B. & O. stock yards up town. As every one knows, the western horses are of a changeable disposition. This was very clearly shown by some of the horses that day, some taking a notion to set a fast pace for a while and then refusing to go altogether. While a crowd of men and boys were coaxing one of the horses into M. D. Leßoy's livery barn, another man came up, who had just succeeded in getting his horse into the barn. When asked how he had got along with his horse he said it was very gentle and he had no trouble in getting it into the barn, but he! would like to have the crowd go upl and take the rope off the animal.

DEATH RECORD, MRS. CATHERINE MARTIN, Mrs. Catherine Martin died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Maggie Blake, in this place Tuesday morning, July 11, at 8 o'clock. The funeral services were held at the Catholic church Thursday morning at 9 o'clock. The remains were taken from here to South Bend and laid to rest in the Cedar Grove | cemetery at Notre Dame. The deceased is survived by two daughters and two sons—Mrs. Maggie Blake, Mrs. Dempsey | and James and Joseph Martin. Installation of Officers. Excelsior Temple, No. 168, Rathbone Sisters.met in regular convention on Monday evening. After the usual business was over they conferred the work of the order on one candidate. After the initiation the installing officer took charge and proceeded to install the following officers who had been elected the last meeting night: P. C., Rebecca Koontz, M. E. C,, Kate Williams, ' E. S., Maggie Martin, E. J., Flora Ball, M. of T., Ida Farver, M. of R. and C., Ella Turner, | M. of F., Nancy Hudelmyer, | P.of T, Addie Strang, G. and O.

Quite a goodly s | number of Knights were present, a speeial ! invitation having been extended to alli | l’ members. | All seemed to enjoy the evening and were loth to leave. During the social { hour the lodge was entertained by vocal { and instrumental music. IS IT RIGHT For an Editor to Recommend Patent Medicine? From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, N. C. It may be a question whether the editor of a newspaper has the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet as a preventive of suffering we feel it a duty to say a good word for Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known and used this medicine in our family for twenty years and have always found it reliable. In ~any cases a dose of this lremedy would save hours of suffering ‘whilea physician is awaited. We do | not believe in depending implicitly on | ’any medicine for a cure, but we do be- ‘ ilieve that if a bo.tle of Chamberlain's | iDiarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand |and administered at the inception of an ;attack much suffering might be avoided t (and in very many cases the presence of %a physician would not be required. At ' |least this has been our experience durJ ing the past twenty years, For sale by ’ B. E. Williams. ‘ CAPT.

The greatest failures in every neighborhood are made by the men and wom‘len who feel the business of their associates resting heavier on them than | their own affairs.—Rochester Sentinel. When the railways, the greatest wage payers in the country, begin to feel the pinch of the trusts in decreasing freight receipts, then see a war on the trusts that will send them tumbling into ruin. —Shelby viile Republican. The Mishawaka Enterprise says “the city officials are earning their salaries.” The average city officer earns about double the pay he receives for his services while the county and state officers get double pay.—Goshen Democrat. : | Gen. Aguinaldo does not miss his | brass band. His trousers legs, remarks | an exchange satirist, keep up such an incessant fllapping in the mountain breeze that he couldn't hear the snare drum if he had ons.— Lafayette Call. To put foreign products of the kinds manufactured by the trusts in this country on the free list as a remedy for trust evils would be jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. It would be to substitute for one evil another one ten times as great. It would cause the discharge from employment of ten times as many wage earners as the trusts will. It would establish free trade, which has always been ruinous to this country.—New Albany Tribune. Competition carried to excess breeds combination and trusts. Business must | live, and when driven to the wall seeks better conditions for life, and that often recklessly. And then again prosperity breeds speculation, and speculation ! seeks the best outlook for profit. This | year a class of speculators and promoters | thought they saw in trust combinations a good outlook for big money, easily made, and trusts are multiplied as never ! before in the same length of time. Next | year they will see something eise to| specalate in.— LaGrange Standard. 4 AUGUST FLOWER.
