PROFESSOR TYNDALL AND BIS LECTURES
It is with no surprise that re learn from New
York that Professor Tyndall, who recently be-
gan series OF lectures there, Is filing the
Cooper Institute every night he appears. The
New York journals, with 3 rather puerile display
Of egotisa, regard the distinguished ecientist'a
SUCCESS as remarkable, because he had the
temerity to make his debut in this country out
side Of the metropolis. incidentally, then.
Professor Tyndau has done q social service in
demonstrating that real merit does not require a
stamp Of approbation from Gotham to secure a
proper recognition elsewhere in the United
States His New York audiences are described
as not merely unusually large, but unusually at
tentive'; and it has been noticed that the OPEN
ing Of his addresses is not interrupted BY the
late entrances that arc common IN en-
tertainments OF more popular order.
The interest which he excites is not OF g
light or temporary description, such as may be
felt in the lectures delivered By 3lr. Wendell
Phillips or Mr. George William Curtis; but it
springs from the opportunity Of gaining in-
formation in rapid and eenly-intellgent man.

language is almost as vivid IS the practical e1-
periments With which he illustrates his lec-

persons who would ordinarily never DO sqs-

subjects.
Professor Tyndal is one Of the most perfect
representatives Of modern scientific thoughts

makes them mutually dependent, and Viylties

much a ss1f-made man in the line OF science

OF English parentage, he YVES born in ireland In
1920, and is, consequently, only in his SD year

As we are entering upon an indpor=
tant political campaign-ohe upon
which the future destiny of our coun-
fry depends-we cahiiot devote as
much space to local items as has been
customary of late. There is nothing
like instilling into the minds of the
people sound Democratic doctrine
Get their heads level and they will
vote right. We intend to make the
DEMOCRAT a terror to radical thieves
and corruptionists from this time I'M
i'll the close of the campaign. Every
Democrat in the county, not already
taking the paper, should send us his
name as a new subscriber, with the
CASE IN ADVANCE. You will then be
kept posted as to what is transporting
The campaign will be a warm one.
Every Democrat is expected to do his
whole duty.

Rail Road $forress,

1t is expected from recent informa-
ton that the Board will be convened
in a very short time, when the entire
Road will be placed under contract
for construction and equipment. Mr..
Willard, Engineer in charge of the
Chic Division, was telegraphed from
New York on Saturday last, at Lib
erty, Ind, to move with his corps to
B~ellefontaine at once, and commence
the permanent location Of the Road
from that point. On Monday the
whole party passed on the early train
on the Pan Handle route to the point
designated. The location commenced
at Bellefontaine for the purpose of
saving the $4,000 tax voted by Lake
township.
The two proposed routes between
Eaton and Gr%eensburg, Ind, the N
by Sugar Valley Fair Haven and
Brookville, and the other by Concord
and Liberty, have been surveyed and
the estimates will soon be made pre-
paratory to a final location of this
survey of the Road. The other por-
lions of the line in Ohio may now be
considered substantially located from
two to three corps of Engineers are
now locating the Indiana division be-
tween G~reensburg and Evansville.

Dead Heads.

Railroads occasionally complain OF
the dead-heading, but no institution
suffers so much from it as the press.
A sensible writer says: "The press
endures the afHiction of dead-heading
from the pulpit, the bar and the stage,
from corporations, societies and indi-
viduals. 1t is expected to yield its
interests; it is required to give
strength to the weak, eyes to the blind;
clothes to the naked, and bread to the
hungry it is asked to cover infirmi-
ties, hide weakness and wink at
quacks, bolster up dull authors and
fatter the vain it is, in short, to be
all to men, and if it looks for pay or
reward it is denounced as mean and
sordid. There is no interest under
the whole heavens that is expected to
give SO much to society without pay
or thanks as the press.

Painful Accident.

Our correspondent at Camden in
forms us of a painful accident which
happened to a little son of S. j. Dan
ser, of that place, on Monday morning
last. 1t seems the little fellow, who is
only about 10 years of age, climbed a
large tree on the opposite side of the
Creek from the town, to watch some
men setting out tobacco plants, and
either went to sleep or lost his balance
and fell to the ground, breaking his
leg above the knees He lay in this
condition until picked up by Mr.. Jes-
see Brown, who was passing by and
heard his cries for help. DR.. Brown
adjusted the fractured limb, and the
little sufferer is getting along quite
comfortably.

The 4th Of Iniv.

We suggest to our citizens the pro-
priety of making arrangements for The
celebration of the anniversary of our
independence. Who of our patriotic
citizens will lead off in inaugurating
reremonies for the occasion, that will
be interesting to the old and attractive
to the young? Let some kind of an
entertainment be provided for the
benefit of the whole county, and make
the day a grand social jubilee. By
all means let us celebrate the "Fourth"
as was celebrated in eye olden time,"
and show the unmistakable evidence
that the spirit of '76 still animates the
public heart.
