Spirfsuniism Declining.

Ithas beenth general observation that for some years past spiritualism has been in a gradual decline. This is the law with every thing that is not founded on true merit.

Catholics and Lent.

The United States now shares the
privilege heretofore enjoyed only by
Spain of being the only country where
Catholics are accorded a special dis
penSation from lenten abstinence. 1t
is Archbishop Ireland who obtained
this notable concession from the Pope
The archbishop relates that when
walking TO his home one day at the
noon hour he observed party of Ia
borers who had been working at an ex-
cavation sitting on the sunny side of
fence eating their midday meal.
They were Catholics: it was fasting
season and their repaSt was bread:
with little ,condiment. Within an
nour he had written TO the Pope pc
titIoning him 10 relieve American
workingmen of the Catholic faith from
the law Of the abstinence from meat
during lent and suggested that they
might, as compensation, abstain
from intoxicating drinks during the
same period. In an autograph letter
in reply Leo XIII congratulated Arch
bishop Ireland on his jealous interest
in the working classes and granted the
requested diSpenSatiOn.

Big Locomotives Cause Wrecks.

A new cause for railroad wrecks has
been discovered in the monster loco
motives that are now being used SO
extensively by all railroads.
While being hauled from their
places of building to. the roads for
which they are Intended lit has been
ascertained that the giantgengines
have been playing havoc with the
tracks of the lines over which they
have passed. Reports have been re-
ceived showing where the unconnect-
ed drivers of the monsters have
been broken and others have been so
badly injured that they have snapped
under pressure of following trains.
superintendent, roadmasters and
others are of the opinion that not a
few of the recent wrecks that have
been attributed TO defective track may
now be traced TO broken or injured
rails resulting from the transportation
of these engines in an. unfinished
state. The trouble has become SO seri-
Gus that an order was issued by the
Rock Island road today requiring all
''deadr locomotives received for trans
portation to be equipped with the
side rods in position and coupled

Peaches Nearly all Killed.

w. B. Fleck, secretary of the In
diana Horticultural society, has per-
fected arrangements for a cystem of
reports OF fruit conditions in this
state. The first report, just received,
shows that apples and pears promise
fairly well. The fruit buds are not so
strong or numerous as last season but
are healthy. Peaches are mostly, if
not all, killed. The dry weather and
the abundant crop of last year left the
buds iu weakened condition and they
could not withstand the cold snap of
last December. A few buds are re-
ported alive i'm favored localities in
the central and northern parts of the
state.
Plumes and cherries favor a light
crop if favorable weather conditions
prevail. New strawberry beds have
"a poor stand and many old beds were
entirely burned out by the drought.
Altogether the conditions seem to
favor good prices for fruit, especially
small fruit for this season.

Hypnotism at Delphi.

A special from Delphi. Indiana. says
a demonstration of the application OF
hypnotism as an anaeSthetic was made
at the office of DR.. +. B. Cochrane
Thursday afternoon. The patient
was John Maggart, young farmer,
who was placed in hypnotic condi-
tion by V. L. Rickett, a business
man. Maggart took a seat in
the dentists chair, and, after being
placed under hypnotic influence, the
dentist began to drill and chisel the
mans teeth, working for thirty
minutes. During the time there was
not sign from Maggart that he was
conscious. A large cavity in tooth
was filed, but without the use of a
rubber dam, as there was no flow of
saliva. During the operation Mag
CART followed suggestions from the
dentist. When Maggart was aroused,
he was told to come back to the Office
next Thursday, take his seat in the
chair, when he would go TO sleep'with-
out Ricketts, being present.

canvas wheels compress and polishing

ishing machinery, engines, FORCES,

fact everything manufactured by any
other factory of the kind in the world.
Mr.. Miller has purchased the Mar

Promoter and Bonus Chaser.

The Indiana State Board of Com
MERGE which has closed two days
session at indianapolis, discussed a
number of important topics. w. IL.
Duncan was one of the principal
speakers and among other things he
said: 1.-The promoter is another gen.
tleman who is always lowering around
the haunts of the bonus giver. Mod
eSty isn't one of his traits. He is out
for everything in sight and while he
may have been created for some good
purpose. very few have been able to
discover just what it is. Generally
speaking, the promoter is a good man
to let alone. HeiS that class of mid
dleman who is in it strictly for cash
and against cash other arguments and
advantages have no weight with him.
The bonus chaser is another crea-
ton of the bonus giver. The bonus
chaser is willing TO locate factory
anywhere from the equator To the
north pole if only the inducement is
large enough. Natural advantages
have no attraction for him without
bonus. Disadvantages cannot daunt
him when bonus is thrown in. Give
him the cash and he will build any,
where, but usually operates nowhere,
or for short time only. He is an adj
venturer in manufacturing circles,
turning up in unexpected quarters to-
day, and turning down again with
equal certainty tomorrow. You are
all acquainted with him, and as he sell
dom is able to impose himself upon
communities he does little harm.
