I'm going back to Posey county
as soon as | can raise the price" says
Bill Jinkins this morning, The
hustle and confusion Of Middle Val
ley will give me nervous prostration.
| used to think if there was place on
earth where q man could end his
days in peace it was here. but it's
got tangled in the spokes of the
wheel of progress and there's no
stopping it,
This was always quiet peaceful
dale till a few short weeks ago.
Generations before Columbus grand
father even had formed any definite
opinion as to the shape Of the earth,
Middle Valley lay, broad and
peaceful lake, surrounded by fringe
of green like pearl embedded in
an emerald Here prehistoric man
rested, meath the shade of the fig tree,
or fashioned his rude canoe with a
new broad axe from Pittsburg Here
the mastodon roamed undisturbed
along the shore browsing the succu-
lent palm that grew near the melting
edge of the glacier. The polar bear
padded around the waters edge seek
ing species of clam that were ex-
tinct before the creation of tie world
and the crocodile basked in the moon
light upon a block of ice wait
ing for an opportunity to take part
in settling the race question, and SO
on as far back as the records 90, and
further we find it always quiet. 1t
is not certain just when the first
white man set foot IN the valley, but
it is thought to be the same yeaI
that the Nez Perez chief took his
first drink of s'fre- water and traded
his last bear skin for half pint OF
our civilizing influence. But that
didn't hurt Middle Valley, the white
man came and settled They went
about their work by day, and when
"The shades of night were falling
fast the cows came home, the
chickens tucked their heads and one
foot under their wings, and s'All the
air a solemn stiffness held. y
But now all is changed, everybody
wants to get ahead of the other
fellow
The struggle for supremacy is
fierce and relentless. The merchants
are taking the lead. The wire fences
that used to serve only as windbreaks
are now covered with placards till
they have the appearance of family

the doctor. Hello, says |, who's
sick? Nobody, says he, I'm going
out in the country to change our ads.
The other house has raised cent on
eggs and it's our ante.
A herder who has been out three
months don't know his home town
when he gets in. Let him swallow
a gill of ''tranter juice. He hears
the busy hum and imagines he's in
Portland. The only way to get the
idea out Of his head, is to take him
to the different stores and let him
price things. Then you have to
wait till he sobers up before you can
convince him that he isn't attending
a sheriff's sale in New York. Every
thing except Standard Oil and post
age stamps is cheaper here than in
Boston. don't know how it's going
to come out, but one of them is sure
to win. | hope they all will, but
let come what may, the Middle Val
ley hen will win in a canter.

A BALL PITCHING MACHINE.

Remarkably ingenious Is the mechanical
baseball pitcher patented by Charles Ed
wards, Brooklyn man. It is a machine
that throws balls at suitable intervals in
succession, to a batsman who takes his place
at the proper distance away.
Special arrangements are embodied In the
device which enable 1t to deliver the balls
at the height desired by the batter, and to
recover them promptly in order to throw
them again. .-
The machine is placed at one end of
small building the sides of which are of wire
net, so that people may look through, while
the ends and the roof are of wood. motor
causes wheel to revolve by means of a
belt and thus actuates a powerful spring
which holds a small cup at its extremity.
The balls run along chute and drop into
the cup one after another, whence they are
discharged at Intervals of fifteen seconds
or so.

Queer Way To Kill Fish.

Natives of the Torres Straits have an
original method OF killing fish. In places
where turtles and large fish are wont to
congregate they erect platforms and as
soon as a great turtle or fish appears the
man on the nearest platform throws
harmon and almost invariably strikes the
animal.
After this is done one of the other men
jumps from his platform with rope
which he fastens around the tai OF tne
captured fish One end of this rope re-
mains tied to a platform, and thus the
fish or turtle is soon safely secured.
1t is likely, however, to plunge about
good deal, and, therefore, those men who
are within reach of the rope are obliged
to take care that it does not trip them up
with it.

This specimen is figure of an Indian
