For tha Progrws.1 ie lamAbout the beginning of General Jiekson'a administration Oat. John Kt tcham was one of our law mak er, and was repeatedly in Ike Lgklitiire. If my memory served dm. the per diem aoi mileage was ei T tluMi a'vAnt-k anil van W JL wr 7 Nt---. at Indianapolis while the Legislalatore was in session. Col. Ketcham waa a man of commanding appearance and great influence. L-tter he was a candidate for Senatorial honor, the district at that time heinv maMmttd of the eonnries "of 0en, Greene and Monroe. Col. Ketchaea was a Jackson roan, and bad atrone friends both in Owen and Greece conntie. that urged him od, and he made a thorough and. very exciiinz canvass. James Wbiteomb bad eome from Ohio, and was practicing law in Bloomington. Mr. Wbitcomb, politically speaking, waa also Jack son tan. He enteral toe campaign with Mr. Ketcbam on horseback There were- no railroads then, Col. Ketcham bad been an Indian ranger and fighter of undoubted hr.ggrr and mtearitr. In the election that followed Whiteomb defeated CbL Ketcham, and Whitcomb then went to the Senate. A boat 1843 Sam uel Bigger was Governor of Indiana and .was a candidate for re-cleetion. Bigger Kvedithe White Water v-tley near uoanersvuie, ana was very pnpelar. And it came to pass that the Democrats:eoaeivedthe Idea of electing a Governor though Indiana was largely ,ia the majority for the eld whig party. The Democrats met all over the 8tate and nominated James Whitcomb of Bloomington for Governor, -and Jesse I Bright of Madison for Lientenant Governor. These men were eoneidered among the ablest lawyers in the State. Wbttcomb met Gov. Bigger, flashed with the Governehip daring the previous fonr years, and confident of being bis own successor. But Wbitcomb proved himself to be competent to the task that bad been assigned bim. The issne was the bank and' tariff. ' Whiteomb wrote and published a pamphlet, the title page Jwas Facts for the People." This he scattered broadcast over the State, and on the stump be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the people that a tariff is a tax and the eonraroer pays it. The result was the defeat of Bigger and the election of Junes Whiteomb, Governor of Indiana. The victory was the greatest and most triumphant in the history of the State. The State had now been in the hands of the Democrats four years. Tie Whig Party made another effort in the person of Joseph G. Marshall, a talented and able law yer of Madison, a relative of Dr. Joseph G. McPheeters. Marshall was an able man. He bad moved from Kentucky and settled at MadWbiteomb and Donning carried the State. Dunning was in his palmist days, ana W nitcoroD was more than a match for Marshall They spoke in Bloomington. I heard each- one of them. Marshal was a fine looking man about six feet tall, fair complexion and belonged to the MarthaUs of Kentucky, the most talented family and the greatest orators in the State. But Wbitoootb was more than a match for Marshall, and his second election was a complete triumph for the Democracy. Marshall died long ataee at Madison, Indiana. Wbiteomb went te th Senate of the United Stales and died. Paris C. Dunning succeeded Governor Wbttcomb and was Governor of Indiana. So much for some of Indiana' oUen time statesmen and law makers. W. N. Rosjcbeby. What office are you a eandi date for T' inquired the reporter, who was making bis hasty rounds of the town. - "Me?" exclaimed the man leaning up against the door frame. "Thunder, I ain't running for anything. I was born in this county and State."

J . Tfce Men on Change Effected. The committee consisting of John Greenouzh and Geo.Samuel Thom as completed the examination of the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago property last week. John Greenough- who attended to the examination of the finances, returned on Thursday, and Gen. Thomas who examined the physical condition ot the company returned on Friday. The Directors of the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago met to receive the report of the examination on 'Friday, but there was apparently some hitch, for no announcement waa made by the syndicate as to whether the syndi cate would carry out the agreement to advance 32,000,1X10 necessary to relieve it from its pressing debts. The Directors met again on Saturday,, but without aclinii'.' Monday, March rfU, tne syndifeate announced its readiness to make the- loan, and, in accordance with the conditions already agreed to, the entire board bandied their resignations over to John Greenough. The resignations of eight of the old board were received, and the following Directors were elected in their places: Gen. Samuel Thomas, John Greenough, Calvin S. Brice, Frank K. Sturgia, James E. Grannis, W. A. C. Owen and E.R, Sibley. The old Directors who hold over are : W. L. Breyfogle, H. H. Campbell, John B. Hughes, Hubert B. Shaw and E. D. Hawkins. Dr. Breyfogle resign! from the office of President, and Gen.Thomas was at once elected to succeed him as President of the company. John Greenough was elected Vice President, and Dr. Breyfogle .was then made assistant to President Thomas. It is stated that the syndicate obtained control, hot by buying bonds, but simply by lending 52,000,000, of $2,800,000 of treasury bonds and f 1.4000,000 of stock. Ii is also stated that the East Ten nessee company provides $1,200,000 of the total loan. Berabardt's Indianapolis En gagement. Sarah Bernhardt, the greatest actress of the age, and, in all pro bability, the greatest actress ol any age, will ply at Indianapolis, luesday and Wednesday evenings, April 14 and 15, presenting Victorean Sardou's two greatest plays, "Fedora" and "La Tosca," with the same oast and scenic accessories as are employed in New York The advance sale of seats will be gin on Monday morniug, April. 6 From present indications the demand will be the greatest ever known for an amusement event in that citys When a woman arrives at the unquestionable distinction of being the greatest actress in the world, there is, naturally enough, a very strong desire to see her, especially when that woman ia Bern hardt, who has been more written and miked about than any other actress of her day. The company will go there by a special train from Detroit, and go from there to St. Louis. The local manager in in the latter city offered Dickson & Tatbott $1,000 to cancel her engagement here, so that she could play there longer, but the oficr was declined.

m Murder and Suicide. Terrible Deed of an Insane Man. Sills His Mother and Himself. On Friday afternoon last the people of Bloomington were horrified by the announcement of a double tragedy on west 6th street, near the railroad. In a long, one-story brick bouse resided the family of D. L. Demaree, consisting of a wife and six children, the eldest, Ward Demaree, aged about 24. Ward had always been peculiar shunned society, had no associates and but few acquaintances. He was a book worm when not at work he was reading, and would consume the entire day and the greater part ot the night in poring over books. He worked three years for John C. Dolan and was watchman at the stave factory before Mr. Dolan closed out his business. 8ome time last Fallhe acted in a very singular and irrational manner, and was hard to control. Finally he left borne and went to Johnson county, where he stayed aud worked among relations some three months. A fter his return beseemed to be better, and his conduct more rational. Ihis winter he has been cutting wood on a piece ot land out near John Cory's farm, bis - father bav ing contracted with the owner of the land (Rev. Minton) to take off the timber. Some ten days ago Mrs. Demaree and her son were both attacked with la grippe. Mrs, Demaree was waited upon by Dr. Weir, who tried to induce Ward to take, medicine this he refused to do. Mrs. Demaree was quite sick and had been confined to her bed more than a week. At about half past three last nday afternoon a report was circulated on the streets that two persons had been murdered in the Demaree house, and of course crowds begun to flock to the scene of the tragedy. There Mrs. Dent aree was found lying dead in her bed, in the nor tf east comer of the west room, the bed clothing satur ated with blood, and her throat cut ; Ward lay npon the floor, his throat cut in the same way, and also dead, and a razor that lay near the suicide told the story. JJr. Maxwell, tne uoroner, was sent for, but owing to the excite ment, adjourned the further hearing of the evidence. Mr. Demaree was sick Saturday rooming, and when Dr. Maxwell spoke to him he re plied ; "Oh ! Doctor, I have been atraid ot tins t ' XUe evidence,. 89 Coroner Maxwell secured it waa as follows; The little 9-yer old girl, Minnie, usually goes to school, but she staid at home Friday aud remained in the room with her mother. In the afternoon she was sitting in chair some distance from the bed and was reading a book. Her brother, Ward Demaree, was sit ting in a chair between her and the bed reading a newspaper. Her at tention was attracted by an unusual noise at the bed and looking up she saw Ward pushing down on his mother's face as she thought; she caught a glimpse of blood, her mother's arms tossed about, and without knowing what was the matter, the little girl ran out of the room, crying. She went to the east room of the house and asked Mies Heed (a young lady student who rooms in the Demaree house) if her si6ter, Anna Demaree, had come. Miss Keed said "not yet, but she'll be here soon, I think." Without telling Miss Reed anything Miuoie ran around aud peeped ioto a

Hur- . .... all rying out at ne west uoor, sue went to the Louden bouse, oppo site, where a Mr. Shaw resides. Some boys who were there saw her crying aud thinking she'd been punished for something i. begun to tease her, and -she went back and staid around in the yard, crying, till her sister Miss Alius Demaree, returned, when notioine that something unusual was the matter j ... i with the little girl, she went to her mother's room at once, aud almost crazed by the terrible scene, hurried over to the residence of the neighbor, Mr. Shaw, and gave the alarm. NOTES Nothing in the way o.f a letter or note was left to show that he had bceu conteoinhuine the deed. The cuts were deep the windpipe, carotid artery aud jugular vein ot each being stvtred. Mr. Demaree had gone after a load of wood when the, 'tragedy occurred. All the children, e.xnept Ward and Minnie, woie at sehiol. The mother and son were very fond of each other, iu laci it was a matter pi common remark that the young man almost idolized his mother. The funeral services were held at the residence, on Sunday afternoon, Rev. Vlmtler officiating, and the attendance was very large. The Demaree family came to Bloomington from Johnson comity, some fifteen years ago, aud are highly respected by all who know them, This was the second time in the history of Bloomington- that two hearses were employed at one funeral the first beiug atntbe burial of Dr. Dodds aud wife. - An examination of tho pockets of the suicide's coat revealed a small sack of chipped beef, a package of tea and a banana. He may have intended to leave after committing the deed, but did not carry out hia purpose. It was in the east room of this house that E. T. 'J 'ay lor, about sixteen years ago, stood before a looking glass, and unbuttoniug his vest to locate the heart, sent a ban from a pistol crashing' through his body,-dying instantly. Wobd OF THANKS.

To all person who are hauling over the Pike roads of Monro county : Since th re have been many complaints made at the Auditor's office within the past few days about people hauling heavy loads over the pikes during muddy weather, I deem it ray duty, as Auditor of the county, to call the attention of all persons interested, to the act passed by the legislature of 1889, concerning said question, which is as follows: aeo. 1, pages 378-379 "Beit enacted by the General Assembly, of the State of Indiana, That it shall be unlawful for any person to haul over any turnpikes or gravel roads ttt any time when the same is thawing through, or is by reason. of wet weather in condition to be cut up and injured by heavy hauling, a load on a narrow-tired wagon of more than twenty hundred pounds, or on a a broad-tired wagon, of more than twenty-five hundred pounds, and aay person violating tne provisions ot tnis act snail be fined not less than five dollar nor more than fifty dullun for each load so hauled." I do this so that no nuc can take offense at the county oommissioiiera in cane any indictments are found against teamsters or others for vio lation of the above act. Respect fully, Wm. t.
