THE GRAND JURY

consisting of 10 of Allen coun-

sion in lola this week. But
then probably you know that.
Probably the sheriff has been
around and informed you of
the fact. Anyway whether he
has or not, it is a matter of in
terest to you. The Grand Jury
Is called for the purpose of in
vestigating certain persons
who need to be investigated.
1t is an awful thing to be in
vestigated (sometimes). But
then sometimes you can't help
it. Now for instance take the
firm Of ID. Ewart & Co. 1t
seems to us that every body in
Allen county are witnesses
against us in the matter of
our cost sale. Now the REG
IsTER is acting as our sheriff
and if you read this you may
just consider it a legal notice
that you are to come and see
us while we are selling all our
dress goods, clothing, capes,
jackets, shoes, boots, hats,
caps, underwear and every
thing else AT COST. The
way to know whether you are
getting n bargain or not is to
see the goods. We have 'em.

RAILROADS IN CHINA.
A MIssionary's Account of the DIM
culties Under Which They
Arc Conducted.

A missionary writing from China to
a friend in this city recently described
the difficulties under which the newly
completed railroads are conducted in
that country, says the New York Sun.
Passengers in the first-class coaches,
he said, exhibited so strong a desire
to carry off various articles from the
cars as souvenirs of their trip that the
coaches were speedily stripped OF those
things that con tribute to the comfort
of the passenger. They took away with
them hat and bundle racks, mirrors,
lamp brackets, hooks, small tables, and
even doors. They were considerate
enough to leave the car frame and
wheels. And the purloiners were gov
ernment officials and people belonging
to the wealthy classes.
The stations along the railroad over
which the writer travelled were rude
sheds. very unclean ard without
chair or bench. The cars, too, were
very dirty. While this was especially
true of the second-class coaches, which
were oftentimes crowded with half
naked, unwashed people, the first-class
coaches also became very unclean in
"A short time. 1t soon became necessary
TO take out all the upholstery and re-
place it by plain seats. -
When the railroads were being built
reports were spread that the foreign
contractors were stealing Chinese chill
Gren and burying them in the roadbed
so as to propitiate the god who rules
over railroads. These reports greatly
excited the people, and in one instance
q mob attacked two missionaries near
Peking and would have killed them had
not a detachment of soldiers rescued
them. Under guse of these reports
children were really kidnapped and taken
into the cities for immoral PURPOSES.

TRAINING CATS.
A Trainer Says Kindness and Pa
tience Go n Long Way with
the Feline Species.

Says trainer of cats: How do 1
commence training them? Well,
don't care exactly about making my
method public property, but am not
averse to telling you this much-that
cats meat and milk form two of the
most important factors in the opera
ton. 1t is a common superstition that
cats are stupid animals do not think
so. They certainly are not so intelli-
gent as dogs; neither are they so So
ciable. But once they get to know
what is wanted of them they are easily
induced to do it to the best of their
ability. Kindness and patience go a
long way with cats. A little whole
some correction is often good for n
dog, but use whip to cat for one time
only, and even ever so sparingly, and its
value as trick animal is destroyed for
ever. Cats nre simply bundles of nerves
covered over with fur, and even an un-
kind word or glance from anyone they
love will cause them acute suffering.
Another secret in training cats-or, in
deed, any animnl--is never TO disap-
point them of their promised reward.
1 remember once, while performing in
the north OF England some time ago,
walking five miles at ten o'clock at
night in a binding snowstorm to get
my happy family its regular supply of
milk. So much obedience, so much
cats meat-that is my rule, and never
vary it,"
