A RECEIVER APPOINTED.

Judge A. D, Thomas Appointed Receiver of tbo Original Water Works Company. This morning at the convening of the circuit court Judge Harney announced that ho was ready to rule on the question of appointing a receiver for the Crawfordsville Water Works Company. He decided in favor of the plaintiff. Clow & Son, of Chicago, and appointed Judge A. D. Thomas as receiver, fixing his bond at 810,000. The receiver is appointed to collect some unpaid stock subscription amounting to several thousand dollars. The original stockholders, John S. Brown, R. B. F. Pierce and Judge Martindale, are the parties who are affected by the decision, which, of course, is directly opposed to their interests. Crane & Anderson, the attorneys for tho defendants, notified Kennedy it Kennedy, who appear for Clow ,fc Son, that the case would 1m? taken at once to the supreme court.

Tho appointment of a receiver score* [tiite an advantage for the plaintiffs, and unless tho supreme court reverses the decision will cause several thousands of dollars to change hands. Tho plaintiffs claim that the original Water Works Company issued 8200,000 in stock and $150,000 in bonds, that the three original stockholders transferred $107,000 worth of stock to the Construction Company of Cominegys Lewis. This company immediately transferred 1,000 shares of this stock ($50,000 worth) back to the original stockholders and the rest to other interested parties free of charge, the deal merely being made to show that stock had been sold. The $150,000 worth of bonds were then sold at a large discount and the works put in with tho money thus raised. Commegys &. Lewis taking a mortgage on the plant. The mortgage coveted the full value of tho plant, about 870,000, and Clow & Son, of Chicago, who furnished piping, and other creditors were shut out of payment or there debts. Clow & Son got judgment for their claim and then asked to have a re ceiver appointed to collect enough of the 8197,000 of stock, which they 11 dm was unp iid, to satisfy their claime. The receiver has been appointed

Got Off Too Easily.

The trial of Tadie Ring occurred i»t Frankfort last evening before tho Judge of the circuit court, the luxury of a jury being dispensed with. Newel^ and Prine gave strong evidence for the State while Tom Piatt and Top Porter gave "the whole truth" in behalf of the complished Tadie. This afternoon The Journal received the following telegram from Frankfort announcing Tadie's fate:

Fkankfoiit, Dec. 10.—Tadie Ring was arraigned this morning before Judge Doyal, found guilty of assault and battery and fined $10 and to stand committed until paid. He is in jail and will lay it^out.

A Clumsy Thief.

Last night John J. Trissel, a young man 23 years of age, was arrested on complaint of Birch Brothers and lodged in jail. He camo here about a week ago from Noblesville, and went to work for Birch Brothers ns a gas fitter. From the first they missed gas fittings, stop cocks, joints, etc., and finally so bold did Trissel become in his peculi arities that he was arrested. This morning Birch Brothers searched hio room at the Jackman boarding place and found over $20 worth of stolen property. It was also found that he had sold some of the purloined article to Williams Brothers, the pump men and had sent some away. He confessed his crime to officer Grimes at the jail this morning and stated that ho had wife and widowed mother in Noblesville, Tho goods had been found before he confessed, however, so Birch Brothers swore out an affidavit charging him with grand larceny and he now lies in jail with blooming prospects for a trip over the road. TriBsel acted like a perfect fool all the way through and is evident ly a novice.

Of Unsound Hind.

This lvorning in the Circuit Court Mrs. Allen Simpson, of Waynetown, was, declared of unsound mind and a guar, dian will be appointed. Mrs. Simpson was raised by Tom Courtney, of Wayne town, who last year deeded her fifty acres ho had long promised her. It seems that an attorney named Darnell managed to get around her and induce her to believe he had been instrumental in getting her the land. At any rate she turned over 17 acres of the land to him. When the Courtneys found this out, they, knowing Mrs. Simpson's weak mental condition, resolved to have a guardian appointed for her and have done so. He will go after Darnell and again get possession,of tho 17 acres which Darnell now holds.
