Water is now running in the Canyon
Canal Co.'S ditch. but we understand
that those who own land on the
bench will not use it, as 1t will reach
them too late to be of much benefit
this year. The recent rains we're
very beneficial to those who were
deprived of water.

THE AWAKENING HAS GONE.

Caldwell enjoys moral awaken
ings with a regularity and persist
ency that is marvelously remark
able. These awakenings are so Con
sistent in their persistency," that they
excite comment. Just before every
election we have an awakening. These
awakenings formerly arrived annu-
ally, but with the change of the law
they are now a biennial plant This
shows the efficacy of the law. At
e,ery election we have the same evils,
the same appreciation of them and
the same promise to eradicate them
Ii. a reckless moment last spring The
Tribune ventured the assertion that
n compromise would not regulate or
dedicate the evils. This assertion
brought down on our head the de-
unciation of Caldwell's only simon
pure reformer. We, in company with
several prominent men, were branded
a libertine, scoffer and what-not. But
the compromise was effected and the
moral redemption of the city is now
on. What matters it that the police
officers complain that Caldwell is over
run with dainty iA-.- 80
fecte I "'' -.M-plts' anu IN
with "old cats?" Is not the
same redemption in progress now as
was In progress the two years be-
fore? 1t must be a source Of con-
slant and unremitting pride to moral
rcformers and compromisers to deep
ly ponder Cald&ell's moral regenera-
ton. 1t must fill the hearts Of all
to learn that evils are not regulated
and there Is no danger OF their being
regulated for some time to come.
Regulating unavoidable evils Is a
hopeless crime. A proper regulation
would put a quietus on the whole
reform movement, and then what
would the reformers do. The issue
is the life blood of moral refOrmers.
IL is always we'll to save the issue.
An emergency may arise at any mo-
ment, and without the issue what
could we reformers do? 1t gives us
all a chance to swell up with right
eous indignation. 1t gives us chance
to damn our opponents and inwardly
congratulate ourselves. You know,
that we reformers have little to con-
i graduate ourselves upon, except dur
lug the municipal campaign, when we
assume 1.-THE holier than thou" atti'
tude, and lay down the ordinance that
will do the work in a jiffy. In get
= down to the point we wandered
a long way. What we wanted to say
was that Caldwell's biennial awaken
ing happened last spring on schedule
time, and the redemption of the city
is now In progress. We want to In
form our readers that If you are look
ing for vice that you may find a pit
fall, but are absolutely safe from gild-
ed bells and scarlet dens. In our a
.akening we knocked of the trim
uinCs, and trust we have dealt old
Nick a staggering blow. The appear
ance of the thing Is what counts any
how. The regeneration is on, and
Caldwell will go her way unit
another awakening strikes us. Oal
last one has come and gone, and al

tho doctrine at any cost. For those
fe5toi they will defend and hold tc
who entered polygamy before the
manifesto, The Tribune has nothing
but sympathy, If they have the good
sense to unostensively live their lives
and fulfill their destinies. We would
not prosecute or prosecute them. We
would not interfere with their family
relations, or even challenge the puri-
ty of their lives. We have no quar-
rel with them. But for those, like
Elder Brigham H. Roberts. who con-
| tinually parade their defiance of law
and decency, we have no patience.
Why should Elder Roberts stand up
n the tabernacle and brazenly parade
his peculiar views on polygamy? Why
should his remarks be approved by
the First Presidency and applauded
by the people, unless both are in SYM
pathy with them? Why should the
Mormon Church continually hold up
for the edification of her people, the
lpolygamists? Why should she con-
tinually honor them? In the behalf
generation since the pronunciamento
of President Woodruff's divine revel-
alton, is it possible that the Mormon
Church has not produced or devel-
oped man, who is not a polygamist,
sufficiently capable of defending the
Mormon church? IL so the curse is
lcertainly bearing it's bitter fruit? 1t
may be natural that the older men,
bers of the Church should still cling
to the doctrine. We think they do.
They honor their polygamists with
the view that the dying belief may be
rekindled in the hearts and minds of
the youth of the church, in hopes
- - = Idture date, the doctrine
may be re-established as living
tenet. If this idea animates them,
they sadly misjudge their people. The
young men and women of the church
do not believe in and never will
practice polygamy. This relic of
barbarism can never be re-establish-
led on American soil. 1t is gone for
ever. Leaders of the church are
laying up shame and grief for them
selves and their people in trying to
keep 1t alive. II the First Mormon
Presidency should authoritively speak
one sentence and then live up to it
this so-called Mormon question
would vanish in "a hours. Let Pres
ident Joseph F. Smith say: Twenty
years ago we believed in polygamy,
but that belief is gone forever;
henceforth non-polygamists Nor
mons will be entitled to and receive
the same honors in the Church as
polygamists; henceforth advance
ment will depend solely on fidelity,
truth, devotion, character and ability;
henceforth we shall, in the spirit as
in the letter, live up to the law OF
man." Then let the Mormon people
quietly throw overheard two or three
of their law-defying high priests and
peace will come.

FASHIONS IN NEW YORK

In arranging summers outfit
the girl of today gives more time
and thought to her various outing
costumes than to her full-dress
attire; although in view of the
exquisite lingerie and lace dress
es that grace evening entertain
ments, it cannot be said that the
latter is neglected. In this gay
sojOurn, yachting suits are of the
first Importance, and sensible
styles predominate; plated skirts,
with tight-fitting or cutaway
jackets, or else box coats, trim
mings being an individual mat
ter. The cardinal point is, that
the yachting suit should be white.
Fancy silk braid, embroidery
to any extent, or black velvet col
lar and cuffs with handsome but
tons comprise styles favored by
the fashionable contingent. The
new Panama hat turned up in any
way that suits the wearer, and a
plain hat-band of the color of the |
favored yacht, is a sufficient gar
niture or a fringed scarf complies
with fashions requirements.
Soft felts are also in order or lin
en- hats which have the advan-
age of being very cool. Yacht

Another lingerie dress worn at
the Casino by a stylish young
matron had an embroidered ruffle
with scalloped edge at the bottom
Of the skirt, above which were
six-inch squares of the dress ma
terial, embroidered at the CEN
tres and edged by German Val
lace. These were set on the points
and touching, forming a beauti-
full heading to the embroidered
ruff1e. Rows of lace insertion
from the waist were turned into
points, which were carried about
an inch deep into the squares.
Similar ornamentation is disposed
on the waist front, and a belt of
embroidery did not iniure the
Princess effect. The short sleeves
were composed of embroidered
ruffies, and rows of insertion
were on a sort Of second sleeve,
appearing. just below the ruffle.

ton arises, is the Eton to pass

now reached it's eliminating
point. A stylish rain and motor
coat is an indispensable adjunct
to a summer outfit. 1t is quite
evident that the Priestly Crave
nette represents "the survival of
the fittest" in waterproof mater
ials. Others have come and gone,
but the newest of these fabrics
are unquestionably the choice of
the elect for the smart, trim, be-
coming yet practical waterproof
coat or suit of the season. Care,
however, must be taken to see
that the circular trademark Crav-
enette appears in some manner,
as limitations are but too frequent.
A simple yet charming lingerie
dress, worn at a private house in
Bellevue avenue, was made
throughout of alternating rows
of narrow tucks, and embroid- |
cred bands in circular shape, |
which suited the slender girl
wearer to perfection, but abso-
Iutely prohibitive to a stout per-
son. An amethyst cross suspend
ed by a chain around the neck
was the only ornament, and in
his connection it may be men
;ioned, that nothing in jewelry

ing and tennis shoes are about
the same, rubber-soled, whether
or not of the Oxford style.
AS tennis is a favorite diver
sion here, white linen suits are
in the majority, made either with
a short jacket, or blouse waist so
as to leave the arms perfectly
free. Here again, embroidery
may be used to an almost unlim-
tied extent.
For bathing suits at THE
Pier" taffeta silk of brilliant
colors in plaids or checks, is the
leading fabric. Polka dotted
stuff, or mohair in white or black,
is also worn by persons of quiet
tastes. Blouse and skirt are made
in one, gathered at the waist,
and trousers or tights are sepa-
rate. Square necks and short
sleeves prevail, trimmed with
white braid. Taken altogether,
the bathing suit of the present
is a gay, and sometimes not a
very modest-looking affair.

observed the evolution of the
waterproof coat for several sea-
sons past, will agree that it has

RObinsOn's Big Circus Coming
August IL.

The last time Robinson's s circus
was here a great rain visited the
city, and the woman in the Dolly
Warden got the worst of it. We
smile when we think of it. We
can shut our eyes and see sights
fit for the gods. One woman
stands out prominently above all
the rest. She wore a Dolly Var
den with large red roses, a white
chiffon hat covered with blue
bells and carried a white crea-
ton in chiffon called a sun shade.
She came to town early, looking
as fresh and trim as a newly
launched schooner. She left town
late in the evening resembling a
water soaked coal barge flying
the stars and stripes. Hanging
on the star board side other port
bow was an object which if found
in a farmers barn would have
been taken for a patent rat trap,
but when placed before a dress
makers convention would have
assumed the role of the latest
pattern of a health hustle. The
rain, which had been falling in
torrents all day, had played hav-
oc with the blue bells to the ex-
tent that Solomon could have
guessed in three guesses without
the aid of honey bees THAT they
were false.
The chiffon hat had melted a.
way and lay in spongy mass on
the back of her neck, while the
blue water from the blue bells
dripped serenely down her back.
The Dolly Warden roses, supposed
to be American Beauties had
suddenly decided to change their
personality into Virginia Creep
ers, and they proceeded to creep
for all they were worth. The
dainty trilby's clad in snow white
kid dippers, resembled Missis-
sippi dredge boats, while the
gauzy hose assumed a flesh color.
This was one out of 10000 just
such pictures.
But, nevertheless, John Rob-
inson is coming back in all his
glory and the same woman here
with a new Dolly Warden. The
small boy will be up all night in
order to see 1T" unload and en-
gage himself to carry water to
the elephant. The license is paid,
the lot rented and all contracts
made, all we have to do is to buy
tickets and see the wonders.

Our HooSier Budget.
Portland, Ind, Aug. 5

Y present, DIS d lew OF Cne QOgS
r have been muzzled on orders Of
5 our mayor. Hydrophobia is fear
ed during the dog days along the
Wabash and Salamonie rivers
where fever and ague formerly
: struck the natives, for which
quinine mixed with whisky was
| the specific. A few of the dead.
: ly microbes come down stream
yet from the head of the Wabash
river, in the northwest corner of
Darke county, Ohio, and some of
us need a sip of whiSkey to for
tify the system against them and
to withstand the malaria!
J.W. Tanner and wife of Welsh,
Louisiana, are here with us, and
his wife and mine start tomor-
row for Jamestown and other
eastern cities. We have warned
the good wives that while they
are absent we would make a COL
lection of hairpins and hand them
over as souvenirs of happy
time. Ten days for the wife to
be absent will seem a long time
to batch" it.
About all the oats is on shock,
which is about an average crop
in this county; some wheat has
been delivered to the elevators
and mills, which is yielding quite
we'll.
Our people are fixing things
for our county fair. We receiv-
ed a note recently from our old
comrade, Isaac Jay, inviting us
to attend the Darke County Fair
and expect to be there to greet
some of our old chums and coun-
try cousins, and we hereby noti-
fly Pat Shields and wife to keep
a soft bed and full larder in read
mess, for we expect to indulge
the full time of the fair.
If John Wilt and Mr.. Lyons at
tend your fair treat them we'll
for they are wheel-horses of the
Jay county Democracy, and both
swear by Congressman-elect Ad-
air; and if J. Sharpe Williams or
''Pitchfork" Tillman were here
they would be happy indeed.
Many of the young people of
our city are attending the expo
sition or are out of town along
the lakes batting mosquitoes. I
am staying at home like a good
boy, but will probably spend the
winter in the south again.
Mrs. J. Clark Collins of Nash
vile, Tenn, with her sons Ovid
and Brenton, were visiting with
DR.. Brown and wife last week.
Mrs. Collins is a niece of the
Doctors. She will make quite a
visit with her father, W. B.
Brown, of Versailles Ohio, be-
fore returning south.
Health is quite good here, but!
the little ones are suffering to
some extent with summer COM
plant. One or two deaths have
been. reported. .i
Now is coming the time of year:
when old settlers meet. Several.
meetings will be held close to our
city. At Ridgeville the pioneers
of Randolph and Jay counties
will meet soon. Say, comrades,
won't J. .B.s>Hiller be right in it
at Ridgeville where he lives? If
he makes a speech ! will try to
