To Our Subscribers. Every subscriber of Tna Demo crat who desires to see this paper occupying a home of its own, can do much to assist its proprietors by fending a helping hand in the payment of all arrearages on subscription, and availing themselves of our advance rates. The Democrat is almost twenty-four years old, and after many trials and troubles through the years past, it has arrived at an age when it should set up house-keeping under its own vine and fig-tree, so to speak, and we feel assured that every one Of our patrons will give us all proper encouragement in that direction. The location has already been secured, six doors east of Hoover drug store, on Marxet street, and it is our purpose, with the assistance of kind friends to erect a suitable building in the course of a few months. This has partially been made possible through the encouragement received since the paper passed into the hands of its present control, and certainly Our friends will feel a pride in the matter after so many years.

To this end the above request is made with the fond hope that our most sanguine anticipations may be fully realized. I The Huntington County Sunday. School Convention. ine. annual convention or ine an a Huntington County Sunday School i Union was held in the Methodist I church, in this city, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.

The hour at which we go to press, prevents us giving anything like an extended re port of the proceedings. Considering I the inclemency of the weather the days upon which the convention was i held, the attendance was good, repre sentatives from all parts of the coun ty being present. The session opened Tuesday after noon, Bev. Geo. Kline, the president, in the chair, and the programme as printed last week was carried out.

A heavy rain set in and there was but a light attendance at the night service, but after the opening exercises, and the report of the secretaiy and treas urer, splendid addresses were deliver-. ed by Bevs. A. P. Aylesworth, Presi dent 18th Indiana Sunday School Dis trict, and E.

A Bsusell, of White Pigeon, Michigan, and those who did not bear them missed a rare treat. We are unable to give report of yesterday's proceedings in this issue, but will endeavor so to do next week. Altogether, the session has been one of much interest and profit to the Sunday school workers in attendance, and the suggestions made by and the opinions interchanged between those taking part in the exercises cannot fail to be productive of much good in tts. Sunday school- work throughout tla county. i a sad; cAsd Death.qfan Emigrant WJiile Parting Through the One of saddest occurrences Khlch we have, had to record took place in this city, last Sunday morn- ing.

and the story while In all the details most pitiful once shows the earnest and constant devotion of wo- mani For several years past Chris tian W.Webber has been a resident of Ypsilantl, Michi'gan, and also years has been affilcted with that dread disease, consumption. Of course, all efforts to stay the progress of the disease were unavailing, and a physician advised" a change of cli mate as the only possible remedy. Prior-' to moving to Michigan the couple had resided in Hannibal, Missouri, and have now relatives living in that place, and thither it was re solved to go. -They were also in- formed by their physician, that thei consumptive would not be able to en dure the journey by rail, but overland the air' and climate might do him good, so gathering together 4 his rects, bis brave wife placed him in a wagon, and acting as driver, with her afflicted husband, started on her long journey, alone and unattended. The start was made two weeks ago last Monday, and for some time the husband seemed to rally, and one strange feature about the "affair was that once getting in the outer air, he could not again endure the close confinement of the house.

This was shown when in one instance a kind farmer. at whose house they stopped for a something, prevailed upon them to consent to stay a week or more to but on being conveyed in 'the room, the man grew so much worse that be had to be borne to the wagon again and the lady proceeded on her Meanwhile the husband worse, and Saturday evening last, the emigrants arrived near the residence of Mrs. Fisher, east of the city, and there remained all night. Starting out Sunday morning, Webber was so much worse that when reaching the stable of Kintz Berry, in this city, it was deemed advisable again to stop and rest a short time. This was accordingly done, but hi the course of an hour the journey was again be-' gun When near Cold Spring grove, west of the city, Mrs.

Webber spoke to her husband and he answered her, and no further conversation was attempted until near the Eisenhauer farm, west of the fair ground, when the lady again called to her husband but received no answer. On endeavoring to ascertain the cause of the silence, she found the body of her be loved one cold in death. What must have been her terrible anguish in this hour! She soon called help, however, and a messenger was sent for Trus tee Eisenhauer, who had the body conveyed to Q. Kenower's under-! taking establishment and cared for, and on Monday morning the remains were interred in the Gephardt cemetery, east of the city. Throughout the heavy trial she was compelled to undergo, the lady conducted herself in a most calm manner, and her lady-like demeanor impressed itself upon all who saw her.

In conversation with her several facts were elicited which showed her to be a woman of almost more than ordinary courage, and her devotion was something that could but be admired. About five years ago, the deceased' was afflicted with cancer of the stomach, and he re paired to Worcester, Massachusetts, for His means were limited, but while there he desired to study medicine; and to encourage and assist him in his laudable purpose, his devoted wife worked in a factory to earn money to insure their support, and thereby allow him to carry on his studies. During his last sickness she has most devotedly cared for him, and after his" death the deep, silent grief which came upon her, caused pity to swell many strong hearts. The deceased was about thirty-seven years of age, and had been married about twelve years, but had no family. All the money that was left when arriving at this place was $10, and our people yesterday, attempted to manage whereby railroad transportation might be given her to her destination.

Sbe announces her intention of shortly sending for the body of her husband, and having it interred at Hannibal, and, no doubt, She will carry her plans to a successful end. i'f Van' Amburgh Co.s "great and only" pitched its tents here last Saturday, and gave a couple of performances to large audiences. The city was filled with people, and for so vast a crowd, a remarkable quietness was observable. But little disturbance anywhere and: the street was kept remarkably free from street hawkers and fakirs, and for this, the city officials are deserving of much praise, Cv The parade at ten o'clock in the morning was nothing -out; of the usual line of such processions, but a large number of wagons'' and some nice horses were to be" seen In the procession. For the most fcart the entertainment, was equal to the average performances; some deserving considerable praise while other acts were decidedly stale.

Taken as a whole the show was passable but noth ing unusual or extraordinary. The troupe remained here over Sunday, and Sunday night departed for Wa bash, whose citizens they amused and delighted in the highest possible Married, on June 2d, 1881, at the residence of the bride's mother in Blufiton, by J.

It is to be hoped his lesson will be a wholesome one to him. The Building Boom. During the past month two The Democrat has repeatedly made men tion of the buUdjng boom which is pervading our city, and the great number of new buildings which are in course of construction or of the new structures under contempla tion.

Instead, of any decrease in this direction, there seems to pervade the entire city a genuine spirit of im provement, and every day new move ments are to be noted, and the amount of building now being done is so great that our carpenters, builders and mechanics are so crowded with work that they can scarcely at tend; to all their calls. Nor is the building confined to the erection of dwelling-houses alone, but already a number of new business-blocks have been erected or are under course of construction and the end is not yet. During the past week negotiations have been made whereby the proper ty on East Market street, more familiarly known as the Clark and Carney property, has passed into the hands of a company of gentlemen, who will at once proceed tq erect fine bus-in ess blocks thereon irhich will be completed iyet this season. The buildings will be six in number, for business purposes, elegant in design and finish, and will be a credit to the city as well as the owners and builders thereof. The first building to the west will be built' by Hilligass Craig, of The Democrat, and when completed.

The Democrat will have a home of its own, thoroughly equipped and as nicely arranged as any similar institution in this part of the State. The other buildings will be built at the same time, the owners being In the order named: Dr. D. S. Leyman, Arnold Dr.

A. H. Shaffer, S. Lavey, Major II. B.

Sayler. We understand a movement is also on foot looking to the building of yet other business rooms, in the same locality, but no positive plans have as yet been matured. During the past week, the Trustees of the Christian church have also let a contract to Paulina Fasnacht for the erection of a church "building on their lot on East Franklin street. The edifice will be brick, forty by sixty feet, with one room and a gal lery, the cost to be 944 00. we con gratulate these people in thus being able to obtain a church building.

which will be a credit to themselves and a benefit to the city. Work will be commenced on the new structure at an early day. The old building has been sold to Charles who will remove it from its present loca tion. A Pleasant Anniversary. A pleasant birthday anniversary was, held at tne residence ox u.

Sutton, near the city, on the Hunt-t ington and Warren road; the 5th the occasion being the twenty-fourth anniversary of the of. Maggie niece of Mr, and Mrs. Sutton, who makes her home in the family. A great many friends and invited guests were present on the occasion, many from the city being; in attendance, and the day was 'passed in the most agreeable manner. The young lady is highly esteemed for her many good qualities by all who are acquainted with her, and her friends can only wish' for her a happy 'aiji prosperous future.
