Comrades, rest, thy warfare o'er, Dream of battlefields no more. They did their duty well and may Old Glory float over their graves every 30th of May so long as our government stands. Darke County Boy. Robinson's Big Circus Coming August 13. The last time Robinson's circus was here a great rain visited the city, and the woman in the Dolly Varden 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 Varden - den Varden with large red roses, a white chiffon hat covered with blue bells and carried a white crea tion in chiffon called a sun shade. She came to town early, looking as fresh and trim as a newlv 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 of her port bow was an object which if found in a farmer's barn would have been taken for a Datent rat traD. but when nlaced before a dress- & A maker's convention would have assumed the role of the latest pattern of a health bustle. 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 a spongy mass on the back of her neck J while the blue water from the blue bells dripped serenely down her back. The Dolly Varden 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 20,000 just such pictures. But, nevertheless, John Rob inson is coming back in all his glory and the same woman here with a new Dolly Varden. The small boy will be up all night in order to see "if 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. Men's.

600. AND $1.00. Our Hoosier Budget. Portland, Ind., Aug. 5, 1907. It is very quiet in our city at present, as a few of the dogs have been muzzled on orders of our mayor. Hydrophobia is fear feared - ed feared 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 cqrner 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 lor Jamestown and other eastern cities. We have warned the good wives that while they are absent we would make a col ection of, hairpins and hand them over as souvenirs ot a hamw time. Ten days for the wife to be absent will seem a long time to "batch" it. : About all the oats is on shock, wnicn is aoout an average crop i i i in this county; some wheat has been . delivered to the elevators and mills, which is yielding quite well. 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 country - try country cousins, and we hereby noti notify - fy notify Pat Shields and wife to keep a soft bed and full larder in read readiness, - iness, readiness, for we expect to indulge the full time of the fair. If John Wilt and Mr. Lyons at attend - tend attend your fair treat them well for they are wheel-horses of the Jay county Democracy, and both swear by Congressman-elect Ad Adair; - air; Adair; 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 baiting 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 Nashville, - ville, Nashville, Tenn., with her sons Ovid and Brenton, were visiting with Dr. Brown and wife last week. Mrs. Collins is a niece of the Doctor's. She will make quite a visit with her father. . W. B. Brown, of Versailles, Ohio, be before - fore before returning south.

BY LEO. It was generally believed and expected that the state central committee would give their voice in favor of making Secretary Taft the Republican candidate for the, presidency next year. It was done, and although our two senators lifted up their mighty voices against endorsement at mistime, tne committee near- ened not to the voice of the char- mers but rather chose to obey the behest of their constituency. Ohio, as every careful reader of the papers well knows, is on the Taft side. The general senti- ment throughout the state proved more potent with the committee than the eloquence of Foraker or the whining of Dick, And why not? Are these two ' men the owners of the Republi can party in Ohio? Are they not rather servants of the people? The voice 01 tne people is not ai- ways the voice of God, but it is more to be trusted than the voice of any two persons out of har harmony - mony harmony with the trend of their party. Our two senators are making themselves rediculous these days, especially the senior senator. He is very angry and spiteful and without sufficient cause. Why does he feel so hostile to Taft? Is there any reason than because Taft is in better favor with the Republican voters? Senator For aker declares that he himself is not a candidate for any office; very well, then why not let oth ers eo their way in peace? Sec retarv Taft is a candidate for the 4-i ;0rKl the next Republican national con- ; Sanatm. PW ker is not, why does he show so much anger because Taft is likely to receive the coveted prize? The Republicans of Ohio are bent on having an Ohio man in the White House the next term, and in Wm. H. Taft they seethe most available man for the place. They mean to have his name go before the convention as Ohio's choice. We see nothing in all this to make Senator Foraker justly hostile. He could not pos possibly - sibly possibly pass muster himself at this time, because he is out of har harmony - mony harmony with his party's trend. This is obvious. His party may be wrong and Foraker absolutely right; but still the party rules, not the senator. Senator Foraker resents the idea of being eliminated; well, he is doing more to bring about his elimination than any one else. Why does he rave against the president and the war secretary? They are doing him no harm. He is really harming himself. He wants Taft to enter into a public debate with him on politi political - cal political questions. The secretary has no time for thai He is too busy a man attending to, the duties of his office. If ; Foraker wants a public debate why does he not accept the challenge of Senator Tillman of South Carolina? The pitchfork man is keen for such a fight, and he is a man of real ab ility, a man far worthy of Sena tor Foraker's keel. In such a debate,' if it could.bebrottght a- bout,-we Venture to say that Sen ator Foraker " would prove more than a match to the radical "fire eater" of South Carolina. But a public debate with Taft might result differently. ; For while the secretary is not an eloquent man like Senator Foraker, he is a man

In arranging a summer's 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 dresses - es dresses that grace evening entertain entertainments, - ments, entertainments, it cannot be said that the latter is neglected. In this gay sojourn, yachting suits are of the first importance, and sensible styles predominate; plaited 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.
