A Peculiar Accidanf.

Mildred Romig. the 3.year-old daugh.
ter of Oscar Romig and wife, met with
q peculiar and dangerous accident
Thursday evening. She and the little 5
year-Old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geo
Hindle were playing together and col.
lided. There was curtain hanging
between two rooms and the children
ran together, not seeing each other on
account of the curtain. Mildred's head
struck the breast of the Hindle child
and she fell back instantly, striking the
floor with terrific force. Her screams
could be heard several blocks away and
soon after she went into commissions,
remaining 80 for more than four hours
DIR. Viets was summoned and at once
recognized that the injury was very
dangerous. The child is better today
and it is thought she will recover.

A special correspondent writes a
New York paper from Havana
saying that that city is the worst
governed city in the world. This
correspondent says there is not an
American official in Cuba who does
not place the wishes of the admins
tration above the desire for the
good of Cuba, and the result is all
kinds of extravaganza. Neeley's
stealings were known as early as
January, but he was unmolested for
at least three long months. Thus
we are given an idea of the wrongs
that are bound to be committed
against people when placed at the
mercy of politicians who can see
nothing above spoils in a party.

from Noble county some years ago tt
the childrens home at Mishswaks
The matron of the home found family
in Kansas who we're childless that would
adopt it and the proper papers were
made out and the little girl became the
child by adoption of these people. The
man was banker and wrote back to
the commissioners OF Noble county
every year in regard to the child. He
finally died and left his property to his
wife and this child. In q few years
the wife died and the property was ell
left to their adopted dsughter-some
$80OO0-whO is now, If living, about 10

SUNK THE MERRIMAC.

One of the Cannon Received at Delphi
The Spanish cannon secured by Con
gresham Lands from the w ar Depart
ment has arrived at Delphi from
Washington. Mr.. Lands is in the
West at present, and the exact disposi-
ton of the gun will not be decided un-
til his return. 1t is probable, however,
that the cannon will be placed in the
northwest corner of the court house
yard. A handsome $4,000 soldiers
monument ornaments the southeast
corner.
His gun is of the rapid-fre pattern,
and, dismounted, weighs 800 pounds.
1t was made in 1861, aud was one of
the few modern guns possessed by the
Spanish at Santiago. 1t was part of

ticket and a candidate for president
on the prohibition ticket. There is
nothing meek about Wooley.


The prohibition party platform is
vigorous document from first to
last. 1t criticizes the administration
in scathing terms. Among other
things it says:
ave deplore the fact that an add
ministration of this republic claim
ing the right and power to carry
our flag across the seas and to con-
quer and annex new territory should
admit its lack of power to prohibit
the American saloon on subjugated
soil or should openly confess itself
subject to the liquor sovereignty
under that flag. We are humili-
ated, exasperated and grieved by
the evidence painfully abundant that
this administrations policy of ex-
pansion is bearing SO rapidly its
fruits of drunkenness, insanity and
crime under the hot-house sun of
the tropics, and when the president
of the first Philippine commission
says it was unfortunate that we in
troduced and established the saloon
there to corrupt the natives and to
exhibit the vices of our race.
awe condemn the present admin
istration at Washington because it
has repealed the prohibitory laws in
Alaska and has given over the party
civilized tribes there to be the prey
of the American grog shop, and be-
cause it has entered on license pol
icy in our new possessions by incor-
porating the same in the recent act
of congress in the code OF laws for
the government of the Hawaiian
islands,"

Many readers will remember that a
year ago last January, Harry Warvel,
youngest son of l.. III. Warvel and wife,
of North Judson, left home secretly,
leaving no clue as TO where he had
gone. He was about IL years of age
and an unusually steady, well behaved
boy, and his going away ss he did
nearly distracted his parents. They
have since that time used up what
property they had In fruitless search
for him, never having heard word or
getting any trace of him until Monday.
On that day Mr.. Wsrvel received let
ter from the boy, VINO is now serving in
the Philippine islands, having enlisted
last September. His parents were over
joyed to bear from him.-Starke County
