When the southern storm of wrath swept o'er the Northern coast. From South Carolina's treacherous hords and from its Rebel hosts The swiftness and the terror of that fearful reckless blast Shook from the shores of Southern lands the friendship of the past. We'll quit you said a million men of loyal hearts and true, Since you have shown your cloven foot we'll teach you what to do, And o'er the solid North there came a bugle blast of war That stirred the great heart of the North that ne'er was touched before, In the darkness of that awful gloom that shrouded heart There was a mighty multitude came up from every part. They spring from every nook and corner of the north. Spontaneous seemed the growth of that army coming forth, With banners flying.

loyal. hearts were cheering on the fray, Fron early morn 'til even -they marched the live long day. "Strike while we may, the fight is on. this is no time to stand, The Rebel horde of Southern "lords are marching on our land," We hear the booming cannon, 'we see the sickening gore, The fields are painted crimson now where all were green before. And une neaps of dead and dying lay bleeding on the fields.

Their loyalty and freedom with their pree. ious life blood seals. The smoke of battle rises, the storin of war is o'er. The lashing of the musketry, the deafening cannon's roar, The melody of music that led us in the fight. All tall I is over now, the darkness all in light.

And the white winged angel with message all of love, In all its dazzling brightness fresh from the fields above. With words of cheer and comfort that flashes o'er the land Seeking the homes that recked -recked bs. a traitorous hand. -Anonymous. How to Succeed.

This is the great problem of life which few satisfactorily solve. Some fail because of poor health, others want of luck, but the majority from deficient grit -want of nerve. They are nervoss, irresolute, changeable, easily get the blues and "take the spirits down to keep the spirits up," thus wasting money, time, opportunity and nerve force. There is nothing like the Restorative Nervine, discovered by the great specialist, Dr. Miles, to cure all nervous diseases, as headache, the blues, nervous prostration, sleeplessness, neuralgia, St.

Vitus dance, fits and hysteria. Trial bottles and fine book of testimonies free at ruggists. 2 Harry, the two-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Bud Lowther, died Friday afternoon from Membranous croup.

BETRAYED. -From my premises November 27th 1890, milch cow. with long horns, 12 years old, giving milk, color red with few white spots on her body. The Ander will confer a favor by letting me know so that I can get her. FRANK GALLIMORE, Hortonville, Ind.

How a Man Helped His Wife. Out here in Michigan we had pretty good sleighing for a week or more, and Monday evening a crowd of went into the country by sleigh loads to spend the evening. We arrived our destination about 7 p. m. and while waiting tor supper to be served I amused myself by watching our host take the week's washing from the line.

There was a chilling breeze blowing, and the clothes seemed frozen as stiff as a rolling pin, and thought there was a rebellious feeling in his heart, for he tried to entangle his wife in an argument, but failing in this he snatched up the basket and went out into the yard with it, rapping it against the sides of the door with as ush vigor as if it were not purely accidental, and we could hear his well-known voice consigning various objects to eternal suffering, long after he had disappeared. There is no levity in a line of frozen clothes. Every article is as frigid the Cardiff giant, and the man who wrenches the pin off and then holds the basket in expectation of seeing the piece drop off the line of its own accord is too pure and simple for this world. But this man wasn't of that nature. He caught hold of the garment, with his chilled hand, sought to pull it off, but it didn't come.

then yanked it upward, then downward, then sideways, and when did come off it maintained the shape it had been all the afternoon working into, which permitted it just readily to enter the basket as to shoved through the key -hole of a rise. The first article he doubled with his hands, and there was faint semblance of carefulness packing them away, but after that he smashed them down into basket without any ceremony, and crowded them down with his feet. He used the same care in taking down a fine cambric handkerchief that did in capturing a sheet, and made two handkerchiefs of each one. When he had gotten far from basket he allowed the articles muliply in his arms so as to save steps. and when he had his arms full of awkward and miserable things, whose sharp, icy corners job him in neck and tace, he came to an article hat refused to give way on one end.

ne pulis and shakes desperately at nowling and screaming in his rage until he inadvertently steps on the dragging end of the sheet then down ne comes, flat on the frozen snow, but bounds up again grating eeth and hastily depositing the bundle in the basket, darts back she refractory number and, taking hold of it, fiercely tugs at it while airly jumped up and down in the remity of his anger and cold. Then it came unexpectedly and with it part of the next article and over goes again, this time on his back and vith violence. With the olothes gathered up ne takes the basket his livid hands, thus bringing the op of the articles against his already rozen chin, and thus tortured he pelled his lifeless limbs into the house. His wife stood ready to tell him to close the door for the company might feel the draft, although she didn't think it very cold out. And now dear John please smile I am going to call the ladies in supper.

Lu H. WAGNER, Monroe, Mich, By innumerable cures, Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup has won for itsel a most enviable reputation. Pve been suffering for the past three weeks with a strained wrist. tried Salvation Oil, and find myself after having used one bottle, entirely cured.

CHAS. KEYSER, 199 Mulberry Baltimore, Md. Night Hucksters. Sunday morning Wm. Osborn missed some chickens, and as he had suspicion he followed it up and found his chickens safely cooped.

Warrants were issued for Robert and Mitchel Reel and Jacob Hickey, who were arrested and placed in jail. The Reel boys were separated from Hickey, who is considered the leader of the gang, when they weakened and gave the whole business away, stating that their band had been operating through the country, principally in Pall Creek township, and hauling catches to Anderson and Indianapolis where they were sold. They are bad lot, but will doubtless be allowed to go on a "floater." Poor Farm Superintendent. Solomon Cropper, of Fall Creek township, has secured the appointment of Superintendent of the Poor Farm for the year commencing March 1st, 1891. HELLO: What Is This?

VANCE Big Grocery AND BAKERY. No. 15. South Side A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. A Noted Hotel Lapped Up by the Fiery Element.

-A Total Loss. The new hotel, peanut and fried chicken stand, near the spring, was discovered to be on fire about 9 o'clock last Friday night. The flames spread rapidly and before the department could be called out the entire building was one solid sheet of flame and those who discovered the fire concluded it was useless to rout out our brave firemen. In less time than it takes to write this article, the building was only a heap of smoldering coals. It is believed that no human life went out in the seething flames.

The loss is total, 88 there was no insurance whatever. It was the property of Esq. Venable and represented nearly all of his wealth. The loss will approximate fifty cents. It is believed to have been the work of an incendiary, as there had been no fire in the structure for several days.

A Chance to Make Money. I bought one of Griffith's machines for plating with gold, silver or nickel, and it works to perfection. No sooner did people hear of it than I had more spoons, knives and forks and jewelry than I could plate in a month. The first week I cleared $31.30, the first month $167.85, and I think by July 1st I will have $1,000 cash, and give my farm considerabie attention, too. My daughter made $27.40 in four days.

Any person can get one of these machines by sending $3 to W. H. Grimth Zanesville, Ohio, or you can obtain cireulars by addressing them. You can learn to use the machine in one hour. As this is my first lucky streak, I give my experience, hoping others may be benefitted as much as I have been.

Yours truly, M. O. MORRHEAD. W. J.

In the trial of Hickey and the two Reel boys before the Mayor Monday a great deal of conflicting testimony came to the surface. Robert and Mitchell Reel both plead guilty to the charge and in doing so plainly implicated Hickey. He, however, successfully proved an alibi and was consequently set at liberty.

The two boys were held to answer in the circuit court for chicken stealing, the gravity of the offense making it unbailable. The injunction suit against the City of Noblesville, brought by G. E. Hicks, has been sustained by the circuit court. It was a rather complicated suit, in regard to the improvement of Conner street.

The widening of the street took all of Mr. Hicks's front yard and he was not satisfied with the amount of damages given him, hence the inJunction. Wheeler Nelson shipped a load of stock Saturday. R. E.
