Columbia. City.

The Commercial says that one of the
most atrocious outrages that has ever
been perpetrated upon the citizens Of that
county, was committed by an individual
who delights in the name of D. A. Goss-
horn, and who disgraces the medical pro-
est lights, the particulars of which we
will briefly state as they were given to us.
Gosshorn has been for some time the
family physician of VIM. Shifferts, of
Washington township, in that county,
and has become quite fovorite with the
family. About four weeks ago he called
at the house OF Siffcrts and stated to the
parents that he was about to leave for
Cincinnati to attend medical lectures and
would like to have their daughter Mary,
girl about seventeen years of age, go
and stay with his wife during his absence.
To this the parents gave their assent and
the two started, as the family supposed,
for the residence of the said Gcsshorn,
and knew nothing to the contrary until
some days later when the old gentleman
called at the house of said doctor to see
how his girl was getting along. His sur
prise can better be imagined than rea-
Used when he was informed by Goss-
horns wife that his daughter had not
been there. Instead of going home they
started for Columbia City. after they got
some distance from the house, Gosshorn
made known his intentions to the girl,
said that he had procured divorce from
his wife and wanted to marry her. The
girl at first objected bnt finally agreed to
go with him. They came to town, hired
person to take the team back, took the
first train east, and going as far as FIT.
Wayne the first night put up at the Har-
mon House, registered as D. A. Gosshorn
and wife. From thence they went direct
ly or indirectly our informant knew not
which, to Pennsylvania and remained for
a number of days with Gosshorne's moth
er, who knew not but the girl was his
WIFE At length his victim grew home
sick and would give him no rest until he
agreed to accompany her home, which he
did with the understanding that she
should keep perfectly quiet. They re-
turned home on Saturday last and on
Sunday night Gosshorn was arrested on
charge of felony and brought before his
honor. G. W. LAMB, j. P, in this place,
for trial on Monday He waived an ex-
animation and the court bound him over
in the enormus {? } sum of $500 to ap-
pear for trial at the March term of Cir
cult Court Perhaps the Squire knows
his business" but the majority OF the
people think it an outrage that Gosshorn
should be released ON SO small a bond.
We would doubtless be justifiable in giv-
ing the Doctor a very scathing notice.
but in as much as he now stands bound
over, according to law for trial, prudence
dictates the better plan is to let the rascal
off for the present with this brief state
ment Of facts

Mr.. McDo nald said he should be more

WAGES OF TEACHERS. BY MR- sox1h-
Teaching required thought. Coulc
teachers do anything at educating them
selves for two dollars per day? Es
thought they could not He could not see
why teachers should not hav better
wages. There must be competent teach
ers.
There are more school houses now thar
necessary; but there was not sufficient
interes: in those already built. Trustees
had been to the school house door In Ar
gos-no farther during his teaching. We
should induce parents to visit schools.
Did not know that he could effect any
thing by going tor the Legislature. Trus-
tees did not do their whole duty. Implied
that the people were too close Hoped
the teachers of Marshall county would
raise the standard of examination by some
kind of union Wages in Marion county
are 1925 per day. Had taught four years
in this county. If he had depended on
this, he would have starved two years
ago If he did not work some in the field
he could not attend the Institute Mar
shall is more wealthy than some other
counties who are paying more. If ali
who wished higher wages, would form
a union they would getit. Teachers who
did not expect to get their pay Nh this
world; but expected compensation in
another world for their labors here, would
soon go to that reward. (Applause.} }
The teacher must be q moral man. The
Teachers calling was the highest on
earth. Teachers are obliged to form the
minds of the little ones. Unless teach
er be a moral man he could not with
truth explain question asked by little
ones. Believed that ladies should have
the same wages as men ifthey did the same
work When a union was formed they
could raise thewages. Bestplan TO uniteand
govern themselves first before they could
govern others. Indiana has one Of the
largest school funds in the west.
Mr. Mcdonald said the Trustees did
the best they knew how. They were not
highly educated men. Wages were about
as high as they would be.

Essay on Physiology-by j. II. Beiler.
Mr. Baldwin asked how pupils who had
not studied Latin or Greek, could asso-
ciate the meaning of words and their use,
Mr.. Beiler said they could resort to
Webster's In lbridged Dictionary.
Mr.. Chase asked if he believed III com
mitting geographical names, without
knowing the meaning. Did not think he
could make children understand how
they were derived from Latin and Greek
Mr. Beilcr said he did not believe geo
graphical names need be learned in that
? way but would try to teach the defini-
ton, associated with use. 1t would be

MILK As F'ooD.-An investigation

MILK As FooD.-An investigation into
the hutritive quality of milk, and tho
reason for its disagrecing with many
adult persons, has been made by DR..
Wiggin, of Providence, r. l., and report
ed in the Journal Of 4Ptlied Chemistry
The results will seem novel to those
who have looked on milk as a sloppy
diet, not to be compared with the more
solid articles We choose in preference for
our good. For example, milk contains
eighty-seven per cent. of water; but then
a rump steak of beef contains seventy
five per cent. of water, and eggs contain
sixty eight per cent.
In fact, it turns out that milk, even at
twelve cents per quart, is the cheapest
form OF animal TODD. DIR. Virgins says
that sirloin steak, including the bone, at
thirty-ive cents a pound, is as dear as
milk at twenty four cents per quart, round
steak at twenty cents per pound as dear
as milk at fourteen cents: eggs at thirty
cents per dozen as dear as milk at twenty
cents corned beef at seventeen cents as
dear as milk at fifteen cents.
A great obstacle to the use of milk as
an important element of food is to be
found in the aet that it cannot be used
by all With impunity, often producing
headache and biliousness. The cause cf
this seems to be that the milk undergoes
in the stomach a process similar to that
which accompanies the manufacture of
cheese that is, it is solidiied or formed
into nearly solid "curd," the potash and
soda in the milk, which were needed to
render its caseine soluble in its water, be-
ing taken up by the acid of the stomach,
The temperature of the stomach also IA
vors the change
This mass of curd. which is probably
manageable by the healthy digestion of a
child, or person with whom milk has
always been used as an article of diet, is
hard nut for an unsound stomach to
crack. The depraved gastric juice of an
adult sinner finds difficulty in penetra-
ting its gummy Businesses. The con
tents of the stomach, only half prepared,
pass on into the intestines, making dis
comfort and troubles as they go. All
this may be avoided by mixing with the
milk some farinaceous food. such as rice,
bread, or corn pudding. The farinaceous
particles will be SO mixed through the
mass of the curd as to destroy its cohe-
sion. and to make it easy for the stomach
to manage it. Even with this precaution,
milk should be used sparingly at the out
set, and the digestion should be accus-
toned to its new work-for the easy di-
gestion of milk is trick we put aside
with our childish things.

ANEcpoTE OF ETuAN AILEN-El

ANECDoTE OF ETHAN ALLEN-Ethan
Allen once passed up through the Hoo
sac Valley and spent the Sabbath with a
friend in Willamstown, attending church
with him and his family. The first and
second Presidents of Williams College
were square toed in their orthodoxy, hav-
ing far more faith in Divine wrath and
justice than in his love and mercy, aud
their sermons gave evidence of their obe-
dience to belief On this Sabbath the
text of the worthy President Fitch was,
And if the righteous scarcely be saved
where shall the upgodly and the sinner
APPEAR"
Firstly-He laid it down as a fact be-
yond question that not more than one in
one thousand would be saved.
Secondly, thirdly, to twelfthly-He
said that not one in fifty thousand could
be saved
Ethan Allen took his hat and cane and
prepared to leave His friend said, Dom
leave now"
Seventeenthly dropped from the Presi
dents lips, who said he had col.ie to the
conclusion that of the counties millions
OF men, not more than one in a hundred
thousand would be saved.
The old soldier had been growing un.
easy uuder This rapidly sliding scale, il
VIII -ch the blanks so multiplied and the
prizes faded from view. He grasped hi.
hat and cane, when his friend said to him
Don't go out. He will be through soon
He's now up to seventeenthly."
"Oh no matter" said Allen, "any o.
you are welcome to my chance, if It's as
slim as he tells of" and left the church

In the Ohio Educational Monthly for
November is an article on the schools of
Switzerland, in which the interesting
statement is made that lin the village of
Illgow. containing 1890 inhabitants, not
one individual during the last twenty
three years, has been brought into court
as prisoner or sued for debt" The
Swiss believe in the industry and dignity
of labor, and spend seven times as much
on education as they do on pauperism and
crime, and hence have far less criminality
among them than prevails in England,
where the government spends five times
as much on pauperism and crime as il
does for the cause Of education,

A DISGUSTING sELL.-Quite recently in
the goodly city of Spencer. Owen county,
a railroad meeting was held for the pur-
pose of extending aid and comfort to the
Terre Haute & Cincinnati Air Line Rail-
road Company. The "vox populi' was
not as the voice of one man in support of
the movement, and as sligat expression
of their disgust the disaffected boxed up
a skunk and sent it to the meeting, where
it created quite a sensation and some
smell. 1t is said that some of the rail
road party camped out that night, their
better halves expressing decided aver
sion to the hair Oil in vogue just then.

Eight others were punished with twenty
lashes each, and several, in addition, stood
for an hour in the pil]ory. The offence
of each was petit larceny.

How to Grow Rich.

why the country accumulates wealth so
slowly. No people in the world are more
industrious than these people, and It
seems to me that l never saw a harder |
working people than the people of Mar |
shall county. They are up early and
work late. No season too cold, and none
too hot for those hardy sons of toll Still
we hear the cry of hard times" "heavy
taxes" 'few improvements" and "slow
progress" and, considering the fine soil,
rich harvests and large exports from this
county, it is worth while to ask what
goes with our surplus capital? Our
''heavy taxes" will not solve the mystery.
Now, come honest men and sons of toll,
and complaining mortals, let us figure
awhile on this problem:
The population of this county is about
$4,000 men, women and children. We
think it safe to say that 5000 ofthis num-
Der use tobacco, and the average expense
to each one is fifty cents per week, or
t'renty-sir dollars per annum. Now
twenty six times 5000 equals $4,000.
One hundred and thirty thousand dollars
for tobacco. This is clear loss without
any gain Now let US suppose that 5000
use, as beverage, Intoxicating or malt
| liquors. Let us also set down the cost,to
each one at twenty-five cents per week,
or thirteen dollars per annum. Thirteen
times 5000 equals $1,000. lSiHy-foe
thousand dollars for useless drinks. Now
let us suppose that 5000 women spend
five dollars per annum fordress more than
necessity or good taste demands; and the
| same number of men do the same, and we
have fifty thousand dollars for dress. AL
so, let US suppose that 5000 spend five
dollars per annum for useless and injuri-
Gus luxuries of diet, and we have $4,000
Now lastly, let us suppose that 10000 ex
pend five dollars each for useless or injur-
ious amusements. and we have $4,000
! Now. guess We have as much as we
can bear this time. Letus see:
| Tobacco. ........... SI30,OOO
| DrlnkS. b0,uUU
| l ScleSS Dress. ............... 10000
| FOOu. 21,UOU
| AmuSements Observation-Disclosures. $4,000
Total. S32U,OOU
Now let US add to this a few items that
follow these figures. Let us suppose that
800 men are employed making and selling
tobacco, drinks, &c, and that their wages
are worth to them $500 per annum, max.
ing $4,000. Then 200 more men are rem
desed useless to the community by drink
worth $500 per annum, making $4,000
Now let us add 100000 for difficulties
personal, legal, medical, &c, growing out
of these, and we have the net sum OF
$550,000. We will say nothing Of the
fth from tobacco, sorrow and distress in
the home of the drunkard, ignorance en-
tailed on families for want Of means, the
wealth hat would flow to us but for thi.
misery and poverty we bring upon our
selves. Now if our figures are Just twice
as large as the facts, what sum lost ev
cry year. Take these figures, my brother
and think about them, and see if you car
fiud where they apply to you. Let every
man spend some time thinking about this
and when the New Year begins, turn ;
new leaf, and see how much he can do
Do this and you will make yourselfriche
and happier, and every body else richie
and happier. G. W. \.
