Dsoision in tho harmon Will Case Whereby Wabash Colloge Gets 1,400 Acres of Land. 'l'ho following Associated I'ress dispatch from Chicago will bo good news to Wabash (o'.lage: ''Judge Blodgotf, in the federal eonrt to-day, rendered his opinion in a controversy between hoirs of an eccentric but wealthy old farmer named Jacob M. Harmon, over the ownership of over three thousands acres of land in Iroquois county, Illinois, and Warren county, Indiana. About fiftoen years ago Harmon made a contract with two of his nephews, Jacob and Jeremiah Harmon, which, in effect gave the old gentleman's possessions to them at his donth, providing they mado certain improvements on the lands and paid an annual rental for it. In 188-1 new agreement, which provided that the two nephews must surrender the lands at •any time the owner desired, was made. In 1887 Harmon died and left a will which disposed of 1,400 acres of the land to Wabash College, of Indiana, a large portion to different relatives and but six hundred acres each to tho two nephews. The will also provides that those last l»quests bo subject to an annuity of 25 cents per acre, to be paid to the American Hible Society of Now York. The two nephews rebelled at this and filed a bill in the Ur ited States Circuit Court to enforce the original agreement that thoy were to receive the land. The written agreement mado by tho two nephews in 188-1 was fatal to their claim, however, in the court's opinion. There was some questions in tho court's mind as to tho annuity in perpetuity to bo paid to tho Bible Society ami ilioro will probably l)o somo further litigation on that point, but the bill to enforce the original npreemc nt. was dismissed for want of equiiv."

HEW GLACIAL BED EXPOSED. An Unexpootc.d find of Glacial Deposits Made in Goal Greek Township Whioh

Give Eiie to Varied Conjectures. The following from ths Lafayette Call is not only interesting from a scientific but from local standpoint the farm of Mr. Meharry being in this county:

Alex Meharry has been overeeoing the atriaghteningjof the course of Coal Creek on his farm near tho well known Meharry camp ground. During the excavations for a new channel, at a depth of some five feet, a large walnut log was exposed. At the time five feet was uncovered, bnt the creek has since unearthed about twenty-five feet of tho mammoth tree's length. Excopt on tho immediate surface the tree is in a very good state of preservation, tho wocd being quite hard, and it is two and

half feet in diameter. At the samo depth and a little further down the creek wero found some vory largo willows. Just how theao trees came hero is a mystery, for the [country for. miles around is essentially a prairie, the present young growth having grown up within the memory of many of the old settlers, who rode through tho tall prairie grass where the modern groves stand. Tho largo walnut log probably at one time stood near where found, or else there was a great flood which,floated it in from a great distanoe. Either supposition is opon to objections. If the tree grew where found it is very ancient and remarkably well preserved. If it was floated in and lodged whoro found Coal Creek must indeed have been on a high to carry a troo trunk ovor twentyfive feet long and over seven feet in circumferencie. Just below the site where the logs were found, on a general blue clay and black top soil, but set in gravel beds at a depth of four and five feet, were found at intervals over one hundred rocks, with large bottoms and small topF. Tho bottom or base of all of tho rocks slanted southwest, and tho tops northeast, showing thorn to be of undoubted glacial origin.

"More FlyPaper"—To-morrow Might. There will bo "more fly paper" sticking to the old "hayseed" at Music Hall to-morrow night on the appearance of "A Pair of Kids." and how tho old countryman visits tho great city and unoxpoctedly finds hiniBolf running metropolitan restaurant the numerous amusing situations ho gots'into and out of which equal facility, will all be laughably and grotesquely sot forth to tho delighted audionc". Mr. Kendall's comedy is of a kind that keeps an audience in a continuous uproar of laughter from the time he stumbles upon tho atago until the curtain goes down on tho last act. Nobody who enjoys fun and plenty of it should miss the opportunity of seeing what has been pronounced to be the funniest show of the season. The musical features aro all new and rendered especially attractive by a company that comes highly couimonded.

Bepublioan Olub.

The Morton Republican club held a large and enthusiastic meeting last evening. The subject for discussion was "The President's Message," and Prof. Mount led in a yory entertaining speech of half an hour. Numerous other speeches were made which were of a highly interesting nature. It being the night for the annual election of officers the whole corps of old officers were re-elected with the exception of tho secretary, J. A. Greene, who resigned. The position was accordingly filled by Michael Fell. The new office of corresponding secretary was tendered to Harvey Wilkinson. Ton now mambers wero initiated and the preliminaries arranged for the establishment of similar clubs in the out townships. ..

To Protect tlie Streams of Water. The State Board of Health and the Indiana Live Stock Commission have united their forces to prevent the pollution of the streams of the State by the throwing of dead carcasses of animals, or offal, into the rivers, or on the banks. It has been proven that tho pollution of the streams will cause diseaso in cattle, who drink the water, and as a consequence is liable to product) diseaso in people, especially tuberculous consumption. Efforts are to be made to make it oompulsory to burn doad animals and the offals from slaughter houses, and by this means prevent the pollution of tho streams of water in this State.

He Wants to Invest.

Mr. Harris, of Springfield, Ohio, was in the city the other day conferring with the First National Bank, in reference to the purchase of the water power at the old Sperry mill. Mr. Harris represents a wealthy corporation of capitalists who are establishing electric stations on accessible streams over the country for the furnishing of power to cities. Mr. Harris visited Crawfordsville some twenty years ago and was then most favorably impressed with the water power at the mill. Ho found, however, that the creek had grown considerably smaller and whilo thore is now plenty of water flowing it is a question, if, in the dry season a requisite amount to run the station would be supplied from the creek. He said that if it could be reliably ascertained that the minimum discharge was 500 horse powei his company would not hesitate a moment to invest. It must bo assured of this fact however. In case of the purchase the electric station will be established and power furnished to do nil tho work now done in the city by water, steam, electricity rrd horse power. Mr. Harris also mad a trip to Troutman's to view that place in order to see if a dam could be more advantageously erected at that point. As soon as the minimum power can be ascertained from a reliable party the cori] poration will be heard from.
