SHE WAS NOT BORN TO DIE.
The pint of Overton's Oow "Hose" Risea Like Banquo's Death's Head at the Feast.
The great Overton cow case is again with us. Fawn colored ''Rose," the gentle bovine who in life furnished sufficient of the lacteal fluid from which to make eight pounds of butter a week, supplied the babies of the neighborhood with nourishment, with occasionally enough left to slop the pigs, was a Crawfordsville Jersey, the property of John G. Overton. Observo the wan,
reader, for
"Hose" is dead, long since, and her bones, her hoofs and horns scattered about the commons of the Athens have ceased as objocts around which snarling ours congregated and fought—but her memory, in all its rich, rijjenees, still lives, and it begins to look like as long as court of justice exists, will her virtues be extolled. Poor Rose! In the hey-dey of happy lieiferhood--in the spring of '84, when the dandelions had begun to furnish their golden garnish to the pastures of the blue grass,—was she rudely snatched by piissing I. B. .V W. locomotive—and her s.eet face has haunted that company ever since. After Mr.^Ovorton's first outburst of grief he registered a vow that he would be compensated for his loss, if he had to devote the remainder of his life to that pursuit. He brought action at once before a Crawfordsville justice, and was awarded $125 damages. From this the company appoaled to the Montgomery circuit court—-then brought the case to this county and the jury disagreed. On a second trial the plaintiff was victorious and was given a verdict again of 8125. From this the railroad appealed to the supreme court, resulting in the verdict leing ttbl aside and the case remanded back for trial. The case was then •hanged from Judge Paige to Claybaugh and for a third time Mr. Overton secured a balm of 8125 to the memory if "Rose." Again was the case reversed by the higher tribunal and sent back for trial. On the fifth hitch Mr. Claybaugh dismissed the case, but another appeal followed, and the case on the sixth trial has been before Judge Doyal this week. Employed for the company is W. li. Moore, while H. C. Sheridan, of this city, and Mr. Clodfelter, of Crawfordsville, look after the plaintiff's interest. It may be of terest to know that during the several years which the case has been contested expenses aggregating over 1,000 have been made. When the cbbo was first brought here, Harry Sheridan, then a beardless strippling, was proud of it as one of his first casos. Now look at him a gentleman with a full beard, a good business nnd a family of interesting children.
What the present jury will do is hard to tell, but if beaten, we have it from reliable authority that Mr. Overton will "come again." The case during these years haB become so thoroughly a part of his nature, that all Le has got to do is to step out to the cow lot and take one lingering look nt the "milk 8tool" that wat. hung on the picket the morning of Hose's death, an4 he's in a condi tion to fight an army.
Whatevor the verdict may be the Xeirs

Let them follow the example of H. Horbechter, Stevens Point, Wis., who for live years suffered groatly from nervous prostrntion and sleeplessness, tried physicians ujid different medicines without success. But one bottle of Dr. Miles' Nervine caused sound sleep ovary *night and sheis feelMig like a new person.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
The President's Message—The Speakership Fight—Other Matter. [Correap. of Tins Jouhnai..]
Washington, Nov. 30, 1891.—The President's message to
Congress is com
plete, but the precautions are such that thero is not even a probability that it I will get out before it is sent to Congross. It has not been sent to the Goveminent printing office to be put in typo and there is a possibility that it may not go theie at all, as it is now possible to duplicate each type written pige of it as may times as may lie desired, right in the White House, under the eye of prive Secretary Halford and
Miss Sanger, the President's confidential stor.ographer. Your correspondent is assured by one who knows that the message is one of the ablest ever writand that it is particularly strong in matter with which partisan politics should have nothing to do.
The last week of the Speakership fight begins with a rush. More than two hundred members of tho Houho have arrived within the last forty-eight hours, which gives the friends of the several candidate material to work ujk 11 Springer, of Illinois, has the gaudiest headquarters and alBo the noisiest, although a week ago lie was not considered "in it" at all. Among his loudest shouters are a quartette of Illinoians who held office under the Cleveland ad-ministration—ex-Pension Commissioner Black Fred Winston, ex-Minister to Persia Lambert Tree. ex-Minister to Belgium, and Adlai Stevenson, ex-first Assistant Postmaster-General. Henry George is lobbying all he knows how for Mills, and he openly states he is doing it because Mills is a free trader. Crisp's friends claim that he will 1)6 nominated in the first ballot in the caucus, but they will not back their claim with cash, although men with sporting proclivities are anxious to give them tin opportunity of soing doing. McMillen says those who suppose he intends withdrawing will be disappointed. He may not withdraw, but the prediction is mad that if upon any ballot in the caucup the votes he controls will lie sufficient to nominate Mills they will go to him. Jerry Simpson is declaring that the Alliance members will flock togethei outside of the caucuses of the old parties, but the indications are that Jerrj will find it a very small (lock, ns the Southern members will it is believed, go into the Democratic caucus—they area very hungry 6et and it is only by going into the caucus that they can got even a little share of the House patronage. It is believed that Jerry himself can be induced to go into the Democratic can cus if the right sort of inducement is offered. The caucus will be held next Saturday evening and the prediction is made that if neither Mills nor Cr'sp ii nominated on one of the first three bal lots some one of the other candidates will win on the fourth or fifth ballot. However, it is at best but guess work.
Postmaster-General Wanatnaker says that there is not the slightest foundation for the statement being published, as special correspondence from New Orleans in a6 many of the big newspajiers as will sell .their news columns, to the effect that the mails going into that city are in a demoralized condition owing to their being tampered with by postoflice officials. This letter is being sent out and paid for by the notorious Louisville Lottery Company, which finds one-third of its business gone since the Un ted States mails were, by act of the last Congress, closed to it and its victims, and it takes this method of trying to manufacture a public sentiment against the law. Mr. Wanamaker says that the mails to and from New Orleans are as free from Government interference those to and from Philadelphia or any other city.
The treaty which has for several weeks been in course of negotiation between this country and Hawaii has been completed, signed by the representatives of the two countries and turned over to the President, who will, if I10 approves of it, and it is thought that he does, sign it and send it to the Senate for ratification. The treaty has not, of course, been made public, but it is understood that it will remove all barriers in the shape of customs duties in either country from the trade between Hawaii and the United States.
Whenever the Washington correspondent of a Democratic newspaper runs short of legitimate news he sends off a story about the contemplated removal of some prominent Republican official. Civil Service Commissioner Roosevelt was the latest victim, but the storv carried its own 'contradiction. It said that the Post Off!jo Inspectors who had been investigating Mr. Roosevelt's ch irges against the Baltimore postoffice officials had recommended Mr. Roosevelt's dismissal. Such a ridiculous assumption of authority is unheard of. The only truth in this story is that the inspectors have made a report, the nature of which only they and Mr. Wanamaker know.

Echoes From the Wreck.
The track was cleared at the scene of the Monon wreck last evening at eight o'clock, but tho debris cannot be gotten rid or for several days yet. While clearing last evening a derrick gave way as a pair of trucks were being lifted. They fell and section Ihjss John Elmore had his foot crushed, and John Grissan, of Wliitesville, had liis right arm S( iously hurt. Engineer Henderson passed a comparatively quiet night and the chances for his recovery aro now bright. His wife who was visiting in Lima, O., arrived this morning and is in attendance. The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers have employed Ed Sargent to act as nurfie and will render every assistance in its power. General Superintendent Collins arrived last night and is looking into matters sharply. It is probable that the crew of the local freight will be held responsible and not the telegrapher nt Lafayette, who gave the order which was misread. The accident wbb not duo to the glaring fault of tiny man nnd there was no loss of life, 60, while the loss is enormous, it is a matter for congratulation rather than lamentation, if indeed, it wus written in the Book of Fate that wre!k.wa6 to be.
