Butler. He well dresaeel and! of good appearance.

He repaired here a day and night and 2e-veiopn ents showed that he had come to this city search of a wife, He, it seems, had advertised in a New York 4ellow" weekly for a youngl good looking female who was willing to marry an elderly gentleman of considerable means. A lady in this city, residing on California street, answered the advertisement and this was the cause of the' old man's presence here.j As ibe story is told, the old man wjent to see the lady and she proved to be exactly to his taste and liking. He isj reported to have asked as a final question whether or not she? conld make good pie. She responded in the affirmative and he straightway said jhe would' take her to Louisville and marry her. She refused to leave this city until the legal contract had been ratified ajid soj a hot argument ensued which resulted in the old man paoking or home Without her.

The lady was going to be on the safe side before she left her happyj home for him, but he, it appears, couldn't appreciate her side of the case. At any rate the Columbus lasses are not going to get lost in the woods in the winter time especially by an old man of three score years. 1 Graln-O! Graln-O!

natoilat Honors, i The State "Love Feast" of the Indiana republicans which was held at the Denison Hotel in Indianapolis yesterday was perhaps one of the largest gatherings of the kind ever held in the capital city. Republicans were present from every county in the state, and the feeling throughout was most enthusiastic. The greatest of harmony prevailed and it was truly a "love feast'' in every sense of the expression. It is the opinion of Senator W. W.

Lambert that Charles F. Remy will be renominated for reporter of the supreme court without doubt. L. V. Nash, of Tipton, a candidate for the office which Mr.

Remy holds, says that he knows he will be nominated. He does not think that Mr. Remy will be re-nominated for the reason that the party- will not give such a valuable office to one man for eight years. Senator Lambert attended the "love feast" and is confident of Mr. Remy's renomination.

He does not believe that Nash will be "iu it" for a second. The present state officials will likely be renominated at the state convention. The meeting of the republican hosts was called to order in the afternoon by Chairman Hernly, who made a short address. Senators C. W.

Fairbanks and i A. J. Beveridge spoke. The following gubernatorial candidates were present and made addresses: John L. Griffiths, Gen.

James S. Dodge, Frank B. Posey, W. S. Haggard and Cfcarles B.

Landis. Congressman Jesse Overstreet made a well balanced and a well received a fitting close to the afternoon festivities. The following republicans are announced as candidates for governor: John L. Griffiths, Col. W.

T. Durbin, Gen. J. S. Dodge, Frank B.

Posey, Charles Landis, Charles Shively, W. S. Haggard and E. S. Hogate.

The candidates for lieutenant governor are: Frank B. Shutts, J. Suddath, W. Watson, T. P.

Newby, H. C. Duncan and J. W. Baker.

Among those present at the "love feast" from this-city and county were: Senator W. W. Lambert, W. J. Beck, Postmaster W.

A. Stevens, Arthur Overstreet, John M.Villiams, W. H. Dowell, County Chairman W. E.

Springer, Commissioner Henry Harris. James Petree, Will G. Irwin. Lincoln Jackson, Ex-Representative William Aifcin and Augustavious Miller. "Grasp All and Lose All." Many people are so intent on "grasping all' that they lose strength of nerves, appetite, digestion, heilth.
