A Republican Olub at New Market. Fred Bandel, C. N. Williams, J. R. Bonnell and others will go to New Market noxt Saturday evening to organize a Republican club. Similar organizations should exist in every town nnd township of the county. Next to a good Republican newspaper in the hands of every voter, a healthy, working club is the best means of educating the people in^sound Republican doctrine.

War on Jt'ilth.

Cilv Health Oflicer Hutcliibgs and Street Commissioner McDaniel have inaugurated a war on the garbage and wasto matter both on the streets and alleys and private property. They give fair warning to the people to clean up their premises. If this is not done they will use the authority given them by the law to enforce tliT'ir demauds. In the interest of good health tho people should willingly and cheerfully assist tho officers in their work by cleaning up.

Not Discouraging.

"In 1H72," paid Captain Talbot this morning, "we planted 130 acres or corn on the old placo south of the city. The most of it was planted tho last of May and tho firet, of June. There was one Cold, however, that we did not get in until tho 2-1 Hi of June. We had a late Fall and that field was the host field of corn we had on the place, and it was all good. The present wet season, therefore, should not discourage the farmers. All they have to do is to .patiently wait."

Happily Surprised,

On last evening Mrs. Adaline Willis reached her sixty-fourth mile stone when about twenty-five of her friends assembled at her home on eiiEt WabaBh avenue about 8 o'clock with well filled baskets to have happy surprise which was a perfect success. After refreshments were served the evening was spent in conversation and music, and it reached the midnight hour before they departed for their homes.

A Love That Relented

This morning Miss Lizzie l'iiitt accompanied by her daughter, who wore one of those modest retiring red and black tourist hats, appeared before Mayor Bandel. Lizzie had large luscious tears in her dreary red eyes and requested in tho sweetest, ba.'s voice imaginablo that the caso against Mr. Jitnmie Gill, who drew a razor on her tho other day be dismissed. Poor Jim has been dodging the police bow for two days, and has become

THOMAS P. DAVIDSON.

The Distinguished Lawyer Passes Away After aLong Illness. Judge Thomas F. Davidson died this niorning at a quarter before nineo'clock after an illness of over a year. His illness which began with the grip, had been manifested in several complaints, the last of which was erysipelas which attacked him last Sunday. He gradually be same worse until this morning, when about daylight he became uncon scious and sank rapidly until death closed the scene. The funeral will be held Saturday morning at' 10 o'clock, and will be conducted by Dr. R. J. Cunningham. Interment at Oak Hill.

Thomas F. pavidson was born in Covington, February 17, 1839. He was the son of Samuel H. Davidson, an eminent citizcn of Fountain county. In his early youth he learned tho miller's trade and worked upon his father's farm attending school in the winter, and continued to work and study until 1809. He then resolved to become a lawyer, and with this end in view he borrowed b-oks from Col. S. ,C. Willson and Gen Wallace of this. city. He studied at night and when he had mastered a book he came to Crawfordsville and would recite its contents to Qen. Wallace and take back to his home another volume. In the winter of 1860-1 he taught school, still continuing the study of law. In the spring of 1861 ho settled in Covington, and in the oftico of Recorder Miller he began the study of law. His experience was that of other young lawyers and it took dauntless courage, perseverance, integrity und intellect to win, but finally the" practice began to come. On May 81, 180S, he was married to Mibs Eliza E. Tice, who with one daughter, Miss Anna, survives lrim. nis popularity nnd practice at the bnr continued to grow constantly, nnd in 1870, when only 81 years old. ho was nominated by the Democratic party for the position of Judge of tho circuit in eluding the counties of Warren, Fountain, Montgomery, Boone and Clinton. He was elected by 400 majority, overcoming a large Republican mujority, He filled the ollice six years with dignity and credit, nnd in 1876 by a majority of 500 he was elected Judge of the new circuit com posed of the counties of Warren, Fountain and Vermillion, overcoming a Republican majority of 1,000. In 1871 he was called to Boone county to try the famous case of Mrs. Nancy Clem, for the murder of Nancy Young, near Indianapolis, and he presided at both trials of Mrs. Clem, his decisions on many of the intricate questions arising causing widespread comment for their clear and forcible nature. Hib decisions have been quoted in all the leading law journals of the country and he wus frequently a contributor to thorn, especially to the "American Law Iieyister." He is the author of several admirable lnw text b:x ks which have proved of great servioo to the Indiana Bar. "Davidson's Overruled Cases" being one of the finist works of the kind ever published. In 1882 Judge Davidson was defeated by barely 12 votes in an overwhelmingly Republican circuit. He then resumed the practice of law and in 1886 removed to Crawfordsville with Hon. F. M. Dice and the two entered into a partnership for the practice of law. Later this was dissolved and Judge Davidson formed a partnership with Jere West which he continued until his death. In 1888 the Democracy of the 8th district wanted Judge Davidson to become a candidate for Congress, but as ho had promised Mr. Brookshireto support him he refused. On the duy of the Congressional Convention the delegates swarmed to him and besought him to nccept the nomination swearing thut lie was the only man from Montgomery county that they would tolerate. Judgo Davidson llutly refused stating that lie was there to support Mr. Brookshire. He learned that ho was to lie nominated over his protests und going to the leaders he declared that in that event he would promptly decline. Then at last he was listened to and on his recommon-da-ion he was not made a candidate. It was JudgeDavidson's desire to be elected to the supreme court of the State but failing health forced him to withdraw his name shortly before the Democratic State convention when the wholo district was virtually pledged to his support insuring him the nomina-' tion by a large majority. Judgo Davidson's life was nn exceedingly active one, nnd his reputation as an able jurist was not confined to his own district or State. Exact in all things jind scrupulous in his construction of the law he was, nevertheless one ot tho most popular Judges who ever sat on the bench in

Indiana. The attorneys nnd tho pooplo alike loved him for his justice, his fearlessness and his impartiality at all times and in all things. A successful lawyer and a just Judge, he was more—he was a gentleman, in the fullest and happiest sense of the word. Modest and unassuming he had ever a kind word for all and his genial lomper and his consideration for others, although it frequently lost him money, nevertheless won for him the golden opinions of all mon. He was Democrat, but ho was not a partisan, nnd through his useful public life he never did a mean or a partisan net, but considered the clainiB ot all men for whnt they really wore. Ho left it to others to bespeak his virtues and never urged a claim of his own. Ho wns more than gentleman, however, ho wns a Christian, boing a consistent member of tho Center Presbyterian church. In his death the community loses not only one of its most distinguished men but one whoso character stands ns nn example for other men to pattern.

Made a Naw Pupil.

The other day Dr. Greene, assisted by Dr. Taylor, operated on the eye of Mort Petro, of Darlington, which was put out 13 yours ago. Petro by a recont accident had almost completely lost the sight of his other oye, so it was decided to oporate on the eye first put out, its vision being lost by tho destruction of tho pupil. A new pupil was cut and when the bandages wore removed this morning Petro was enabled to seo objects about the room and the pictures on the wall. He was greatly pleasod with thn success of the operation.
