John Mcfarland. of Maxenkuckee


/, one of the best fellows in that region,
renews his subscription, brings US the
names Of two campaign subscribers,
and leaves with the devil" who was
alone in the Office at the time,
peaches enough to enable him to d.
vide with all hands. Come again,
John.
We are now satisfied that while
Nebraska can grow good peaches,
that it can't hold a candle to North
ern Indiana. Two yellow peaches
left on our table last week by Mrs.
Charles Andrews, were certainly the
finest we ever saw, while number OF
others would compare favorably with
those grown anywhere else.
The Bremen Greenback meeting
last Wednesday night was huge af-
fair. The moving spirit OF the occa-
sion was "old Bill Ault." Said a prom
inent citizen of Bremen a few days
since, "it was really too bad that the
citizens of Bremen allowed Wood
ward and McDuffie to come here and
hold meeting under the auspices of
such man as Ault without telling
them what his character was. To
have two candidates for important
Offices speaking as the representa-
tives OF such man would ruin them
in Bremen or anywhere else"
w. III. Flagg and L. Stanley, of
Argos, e. X. Butler, Of Donelson,
James Spencer, of Bourbon, A. L.
Metcalf, of Plymouth, J. W. Shafer,
J. H. Robertson and Willis Logan. OF
LaPaz, are among the staunchest
supporters Of their county paper, and
have given US substantial encourage
ment this week. Our campaign SUBJ
scribers are too numerous to mention,
but we thank you all. and will try TO
give you as good county paper as
is published anywhere.
L. H. Andrews, one Of the old
time anti-slavery men of Marshall
county, called on us Monday. He
was a Democrat OF the olden time,
and said, Il thought, when the
slavery question was settled, that I
would go back into the old party.
But / am satisfied now that the ques-
ton is, shall we have a government?
shall men be allowed to exercise the
rights of freemen? And until that
right is accorded to citizens OF every
State, 1 shall vote with the Republi-
can party, the party that believes in
equal rights, and is willing to accord
the people OF the South the came
rights that they ask for themselves
and no more. y
/-Throughout the county men are
complaining Of high taxes, and there
is feeling that something Is wrong.
many DCuuOcidto SiNO tiilo do q icd-
son for voting the Greenback county
ticket. They say that they want a
change in county officers; that every
thing may be going on just as It
should. but they think that a change
would at this time benef1t the people
of the county, regardless of party.
This is undoubtedly true; but there
Is no hope OF lettering affairs by
electing the Plymouth GreeDback
ring ticket. The Republican ticket
Is composed OF men who, IL elected,
will come fresh from the ranks of the
people; every section of the county
is represented on the Republican
ticket; every man is the right man
tor the place for which he is candi-
date, and every man. be he Republi-
can, Democrat or Greenbaker, who
consults his own interests, will vote
the Republican ticket.

RAISING TONS OF SOLID FLESH.
The Deep Hole Out Of Which One Of the
Elephants Helped TO Get Herself.
New ork sun


Gypsy is the largest Of Mr.. Barnum 5
six elephants now at the Hippedrome.
She is also the most intelligent, and in
ring feats and all the tricks for which
other elephants have been famous as
well as unnumbered others that Gyp-
sy's trainer claims rs her own, she is
remarkably clever. Gypsy is possessed
Of wonderful sagacty; but never until
yesterday morning has she had occa-
sion to demonstrate how little she owed
to her education, when it became neces-
sary for her to act promptly for her
self.
She was ordered out for rehearsal at
II o'clock. She followed her keeper
from the stall in the menagerie, to the
gate opening into the circus. AT this
point there is Il level bridge Of thick
plank, covering u subterranean apart
ment twenty-five feet square, in which,
in times past, it was customary to house
certain mysterious animals until the
exigencies of "Bluebeard or other
pantomimes required their presence in
the upper world, when they were shot
to the surface through the ordinary
trap.
Gypsy was nearly across the bridge
when, with Q crash, the heavy timbers
gave way, and down into the cavern,
fifteen feet below, the ponderous beast
fell, fiat upon her side. The circus
hands were Immediately on the spot,
and various unsuccessful attempts were
made to get Gypsy out.
AT last Mr.. June bethought him Of
the natural sagacity Of the animal, and
ordered number Of bales Of hay to be
brought. One by one these were rolled
into the cavity, and as these came down
Gypsy placed her fore feet unon it and
waited patiently for the next, taking
care to place it in position before she
attempted further ascent. She was
soon able to mount to the surface,
where she was met with cheers. She
suffered no injuries more serious than Il
slight abrasion of the skin on her side.
You'll never get Gypsy to cross
that bridge again Mr.. Keeler, show
man Of thirty years experience, said,

an accident, it will forever afterward

by u strong wooden bridge, but it was
not strong enough tosupport the ee-

der her five tons of solid flesh, and she
fell into the creek. We had Nico-
demns' own time in getting her out.
Three years afterward we were about to
enter the same town. Meantime the
bridge had been made level with the
street, houses had been built right up
10 it on either side, the bridge was
covered with dirt, and none of us knew
that it was within mile. Empress
did know. We tried all sorts Of ways
to get her up the street, but she
wouldn't bulge; and ut last we were
obliged to take her around the town
and lead her in BY another road. She
went like lamb"

Among the Penguins.
/, hamher's journal.

x gentleman who passed some days
sletching in the Falkland Islands had
many opportunities Of observing the
penguin population; and lie declared
them to be the most intelligent, impu-
dent and inquisitiye Of the feathered
tribe. He planted his camp stool in the
densest part Of their rockery," where
they crowded about him, picked the
buttons off and frayed the tails Of his
coat, walked about his drawing mater
ials, and altogether behaved themselves
rs IL he had been sent for their special
entertainment. Fear there was none,
or, rather, it was NIL on the side of the
man; for nothing but an occasioualyig-
orous use ola walking stick enabled him
to maintain his ground and finish the
beautiful series of water-color drawings
which we had the pleasure afterwards
of examining.
The structure Of these birds should
not be passed by without word Of

their mode Of life. The fore limbs

tracing 50 much attention by its bril-
liancy, the gas people are showing what
their product can he made to do when

been made whereby light Of 150-candie
power can be produced from one
burner. The result is almost as dazzling
as the electric light itself. Gas was thus
fearlessly burned by its champions III

exhibition there Of the electric-light.

two Of tho triple llame-burners, rs they
are called, will be sufficient to light the
room for all purposes. a burner Of

power, is now on exhibition ut the

rumbling sound made known that a
dreadful storm was imminent. A mas
siye black cloud was extending a whirl-
ing finger toward the earth and sweep
ing with great fury whatever came be-
fore it. Jennie-a girl who was working
at certain hotel here-was busy
at the stove preparing for the next meal.
Hearing rattle at the side door, Jennie
went to the door and opened it. As
she did so she was caught from the
doorway by the whirlpg wind and car
ried over the house. turning round and
round in the air as she went, and after
approaching the ground on the other
side sire again arose and was taken by
the whirling wind over the stores and
dwellings distance Of three fourths OF
mile, being lowered 50 that her feet
could touch the ground as many as
eight times during the trip. Exhausted,
but in m erect position, she was at last
lowered to the earth as lightly as n
feather would fall, having received no
material injury, though almost frantic
with fright. The storm proceeded on
its way, leaving her in sight Of the
town, and in half an honr she again put
in an appearance at the hotel, where
anxious friends were bewailing her sud-
den and mysterious departure.
