ELWOOD Ind, Oct. 10.-Some tall hus-
ting is being done by Republicans to secure
bets on Indiana and on general results for
Mckinley but SO far few have been Sc
cured, and Democrats do not seem to be
very keen to put up their money on Bryan.
Whenever Republican starts out to find
the man who has the money TO bet on
Bryan he invariably finds that the whole
thing is a bluff. Two days ago the Free
Press of this city contained notice that
there was plenty Of money on deposit for
bets from 800 to $1,000. but when the Re,
publicans went after part of it, the mon
ey could not be found.

sENTINEL's LYING FIGURES.
II. r.. ShicI Shows How They Are Sc
lected to Suit the Occasion.

r. r. Shiel delivered an address yester-
day afternoon at Clayton, Hendricks coun-
ty. The meeting was held in the public
hall, a commodious place, which was
crowded to hear the practical thought
which Mr.. Shiel had to offer DR.. j. NJ
Doan presided at the meeting. Mr.. Shel
had expected to deliver about the same adj
dress which he made Friday night at Co
lumbia Hail. in this city, but as he was
eating breakfast his eye fell upon the edi-
torial columns of the Sentinel, and there
he found something which caused him to
abandon his prepared speech and to show,
by refuting statements made in the Senti-
mel, that the claims of the Popocratic
leaders that the prevailing low prices are
not resulting from the Acrime of 1873.
The article in the Sentinel contained the
following figures, showing the price of sew
eral articles before the decentralization of
silver and at present:
Wheat $1.OO to. s12o so to IS cents
Corn Corn 4 to to 4 4 cents 2 to q q cents
Hay $500 to $3.50 So to 50
Eggs ..............17 cents IA cents
Mr.. Shiel showed by giving figures on 9TH
er years since the demonetiZation of silver
that the supply and demand caused the
low or high prices. In years when there
were bountiful crops of wheat that product
the files of the Sentinel, which are kept in
the Public Library The first show the fol-
lowing prices in 1882: Wheat, 135; corn
l9 cents: oats, 30 cents; hay SIG; hogs
to Sc. 0
Mr.. Shiel asked the question: If demone-
tization of silver caused the low prices in
1886, as alleged by the PoDocratic organ
what caused the high prices of 1882? And
how did it happen that the price went up
in 1882 to a. point higher than in 1872? He
then quoted prices as follows from the Sen
tinel of 1892: Wheat S615 cents; corn ~
cents; hay $12.25; oats 90 cents; eggs IS
cents. These he said, were fair prices and
better for comparison with 1872 than the
prices of 1886. when the silver scare had un-
settled things. 1t was the panicky times
brought on by the silver craze rather than
the demonetization of silver that tended to
lower prices. But he was of the opinion
that supply and demand had more to do
with it than anything else. and in support
OF his claim gave the following figures
taken from the Sentinel of 1894: Wheat
5l1a cents. corn, "a cents oats So cents:
hay, Sll.53: eggs, cents.
During this year. he said it would be con-
sistent argument for Popocrat to declare
that the demonetiZation of silver caused
wheat to fall from 81 a bushel in 1872 to
6i@ cents in 1894, but what argument would
he use to fasten upon the decentralization
OF silver the awful crime of raising the
price of corn from 20 cents to "a cents?

ABOUT BITTER MILK. s; ::

Usually Caused by li-Healrh and Poor
 Condition of the Blood.
 Several readers have written com blaming that the milk of their cows is bitter after standing few hours or 8 single day and that the feed used is of the best, clean and wholesome. Some of the cows have been in but few months others will be fresh within three months.
 Cows that have been in but few months, are properly fed, have pure water, free access to all the salt they wish and give milk that is bitter with out being tainted by contact with out side surroundings, may be in ill-health which affects the condition of the blood.
 The best remedy for this trouble if produced by the blood being out of con- dition is to give pound of sulphate of soda (glauber salts) or of sulphate of magnesia (epsom salts), dissolved in warm water, by means of common drenehing horn or long-necked bottle; and after this has operated, a daily dose of one ounce of hyposulphite of soda may be given with good results, for two weeks.
 This latter is readily taken, by most cows, when powdered and sprinkled over mess of scalded bran or in other feed.-Western Rural.

Great Britain Has Fought and Conquered
 Three Great Potentates.
 The three greatest potentates of mod ern times have been England's strenu- ous antagonists-viz., Philip H., Louis XIV. and Napoleon. Of these three Ma Poleon was the most powerful, says Blackwood's Magazine, Philip the most deadly. The leaders under whom the English rallied against these world-fa- nous monarchs were, first, Elizabeth and Drake; second, William and Marl- borough; Third, Pitt and Nelson. Tie result of the first of these great hls- torlc duels was to overturn the founda- tons of Spanish empire, with it's do~ mlnlon over the seas, it's vast colonial possessions, it's claim under a papa bull to an exclusive monopoly of the new world. The result of the second was to decide which should be the residuary legatee of the deceased Spanish power, France or England;, giving in the end the succession to it's old world domin- ions to France, it's trade, maritime su- premacy and colonies mainly to Eng land.
 The result of the third was to shat ter Napoleon's hopes of ascendancy by sea, and to force him back on European conquests, upon projects which related to the old world and not to the new Pitt and Nelson did not disappear uH- til that end was attained and England $ part in the later wars of Napoleon was that, having, as Pitt said in almost his closing words, saved herself by her energy she saved Europe by her ex- ample and assistance.

 When Mir.

Although at that time everything seemed reasonably to indicate the ap pointment of Judge PecI,llam, the lady assured her questioner that his candi- date had no chance whatsoever. Sure enough, another man was appointed, and in the course of time it came about that Gov Tilden learned of the surpris- ing prescience of his fair guest. He asked her how she was able to divine his intentions so clearly in regard to this particular man. "Whv," she sa:d, that was net difficult.

LAUNDRY WAR.
Dress Shirts Are Done Up" Now for
 Three Cents Each.

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-Laundry prices in Chicago reached the bottom of the tnb yesterday. The quoted cost of washing and ironing dress shirt was 3 cents at the North side agencies of one of the largest agencies in the city. This is the lowest figure ever reached in the history of the Chicago clothes washing industry.
 There has been a laundrymen's war on for two years. One year ago, shirts, which seem to be the standard by which prices are gsuged. were marked down to cents from the regulation demand of one dime. Then by come means or other the washermen got together, and the price went back to 10 cents.
 A few weeks ago great red signs were put out in front of one agency after another stating that shirts would be "done up" properly for cents. This ruled until yesterday, when the concern which made the cut to.'4 cents 2 year ago hung out it's Scents sign.

A writer in Progress Artistique, in discussing the music of south Africa, says the races living there possess to an astonishing degree the faculty of assimilation and imitation. They re- produce with surprising fidelity the songs of birds, cries of animals and the various sounds Of nature. Child-people, they receive in their otherwise obtuse brains impressions of freshness and vivid intensity. Their long solitary wandering upon hills and prairies, unit ed with fieeting association with for eigners, results in a species of melodic nature plaints, as one might imagine, a developed monkey music.

GEORGE III. AND DEsPoTIsM.

GEORGE III. AND DESPOTISM.
From Green's ''Short History of the
English People"
George III. had at last reached his
aim. In the early days Of
the ministry (which began in that
year, his influence was felt to pre-
dominate. In it's later and more dis
astrous days it was supreme; for Lord
North, who became the head of the
ministry on Grafton's retirement in
ITO, was the mere mouthpiece OF the
king. Not only did he direct the
minister" a careful observer tells us,
''in all important matters of foreign
and domestic policy, but he instructed
him as to the management of the de-
bates in parliament, suggested what
motions should be made or opposed,
and how measures should be carried.
HE reserved for himeself all the
patronage, he arranged the whole
cast of the administration, settled
the relative place and pretensions of
ministers of state, law officers, and
members of the household, nominated
and promoted the English and Scotch
bishops and deans and dispensed 9TH
er preferments in the church. He
disposed of military governments,
regiments and commissions, and him
self ordered the marching of troops.
He gave and refused titles, honors
and pensions. All this immense pat
ronage was steadily used for the ere
alton of a party in both houses of par
lament attached to the king himself.
George was, in fact, sole
minister during the fifteen years
which followed, and the shame of the
darkest hour Of English history lies
wholly at his door"
