Reason Together!
If ready made clothing is good, stylish, cheap, perfect in fit and durable, where's the sense of paying extravagant prices for custom made
And if Warner's Clothing represents better materials and keener tailoring wit than the average, where's the economy in buying the second rate?
But you don't knowwhether so is so. You can learn. Courteous salesmen stand ready to show you hundred? of suits and overcoats and to explain quality differences. This retail market knows nothing better than the

A GREAT SOAK.
Thought, It Was Trenton IBook But it Proved to be Limestone. Special to Tho Journal.
NEW BOSS, May 24.—The gas drilling machine came to a sudden halt Saturday evening. Chris Masters, foreman, said they had completed their work and were 50 feet in trenton rock as specified in the contract and arrangements were being made to move. The directors protested and Masters sent up a great roar. Prof. Charley Beechler came over from Crawfordsville and pronounced it limestone. Dr. King and Beechler went over to-day to see the State geologist, who also said it was limestone. In the meantime drilling was resumed and a vein of water was struck at 800 feet which proved to be a gusher. Business is suspended at present.
A Slander Suit.
Mrs. Jenni Swedenburg has filed suit in the circuit court against Monty Slauter for 85,000 damages for slander. The complaint avers that Monty kept a store at the classic village of B-rille until March 10, when he suddenly pulled up stakes and went to Kirkpatrick where he now holds forth. He stated that he left B-ville because his clerk, James Slauter, was criminally intimate with Mrs. Swedenburg. Mrs. Swedenburg denies the soft impeachment and thinks that she has been damaged by the statement to some considerable extent.

THE WORLD AGA1BST HIM.
The Great and Only Hugging Oase Tried in the Circuit Court. The case of the State of Indiana against Johnny Doherty, charged with attempting to hug and kiss Miss Lovie Surfaoe, was tried in the cirouit oourt to-day. The solemn, sad eyed witnesses were grouped about the blushing, sweet faced defendant and the relentless lady who was alleged to have been squeezed. A hush and silence th(it could almost be felt settled down upon the crowded court room aa the manly young defendant arose, and with his finger pointing to the starry heavens pleaded "not guilty," in a voice vibrating with conviction "and congealed tenderness. A jury of twelve men, good and true, the defendant's peers, was sworn in. All sized up the prosecuting witness and

two or three looked as though they scarcely blamed the jaunty John for his wicked rudeneBs.
Miss Lovie was the first witness presented by the State and she told the interested congregation of the righteous all about it. She was employed in the home of J. K. P. Thompson last March and Johnny Doherty was a frequent visitor there in his official capacity of nephow to Mrs. Thompson. Johnny admired her greatly from the start, and winked and grinned about in a great way. On the evening of March 14 he very generously offered her $10 to walk around the block with him and supplemented tho munificent offer with a loving hug of about eight horse power. Miss Lovie very properly shied china saucer in his direction and Johnny skipped. The next afternoon he came in with a cold rush and found her in the sitting room curling her bonny brown hair. No one else was present so be rudely encircled her and attempted to glue his ruby lips to her little roBebud mouth. Lovie drew the hair brush, however, and whacked him over the head until he went away. She then left the house and went to the home of her cousin, Mrs. James Stump. Mr. Stump and wife testified as to Lovie's coming to their home in a state of agitation bordering on hysteria.
For the defense John entered a general denial. He swore that he neyer attempted to kiss Miss Lovie and never entertained such an unholy thought in regard to her. Even it he had been disposed to salute the fair maid he would have had no opportunity as Mrs. Thompson was in the room all the time. The cross examination limbered Johnny up little but his evidence was in the main corroborated by Mrs. Thompson and his brother.
After stirring appeals to the jury by Read Hanna and Prosecutor Moffett, Judge Harney gave his instructions and the twelve good men {retired. At 1:30 o'clock this afternoon they returned a yerdict of guilty and assessed Johnny's fine at $75 and costs. His bond WHS raised to$200 to insure the costs in the case and the fine. It was furnished by his grandmother.
The jury were evidently of the opinion that Miss Lovie had been improperly kissed. Some of them wanted to fine Johnny $500.
The Jury Disaereed.
The suit of Ervin T. Bible against the Monon road for $2,000 is over for the present. Mr. Bible claimed that the orew of a freight train at Linden maliciously frightened his team, causing.it to ran off. Paul & Bruner appeared for the plaintiff and Senator McHugh for the defendant. The case went to the jury last evening and the jury disagreed. It stood seven to five for the plaintiff all the way through.

MURDER AT NYESVILLE-
TIE CUTTERS ENGAGE IN ADRDNREh" QUARKEL.
Lew Puett Nearly Severs the Head From the Body of John Thomas "W ith a Broadax,
Spoolul to Tin* Journal. HOCKVILLE, May 2-1.—Nyesville, a village about five miles northwest of this town, was the scene ot a most shocking and bloody murder last night at about eight o'clock. Some men who are cutting ties for the Midland railway are baching in an old house near the coal mines, belonging to the road. Two of the men, Lew Puett and John Thomss, became engaged in a quarrel. In the fracas Puett struck Thomas across the neck with a broadax, which nearly severed his head from his body. Thomas died in less than two hours afterward. Arch Hennis was in the room and is the only witness to the bloody deed. Both men had been drinking. Puett has been arrested and is now in jail. He has a bad reputation and has been in trouble before. S. D. Puett, of this city, a prominent Democratic politician and attorney, is his brother.

.' EMERALD MINING.
Primitive Implement* Used lu the Andes Mountains. "Tho emerald mines," says Albert Millican, in Travels anil Adventures of an Orchid Hunter, "lie in a basin surrounded by high mountains In the form of a circle. These mines are now tho property of the government of Columbia, which rents them to a company employing five or six overseers and about four hundred native workmen. "The means used for working- them are very primitive, but they yield every year a larg-e amount of precious stones, which are immedately shipped to Europe. "The band of rock containing tho precious crystals is more than a thousand feet high, formed of blaelc shale veined with pyrites of iron. Very few emeralds are found in the black stone, but by cutting down the face of the immense precipice veins of white stone are uncovered: this is known as calcite, acrystallized form of carbonate of lime. Tho emeralds are sometimes embedded, and sometimes found in hollow cavities, and the work of cutting down tho side of the rock is done by natives, mostly with a crowbar. "A piece of rock a yard wide is selected, running the whole length of the mine, on tho top this Is cut. down a few yards, and then another level of the same is begrun again at the top, until the whole breast of the rock appears to be a monster staircase, the broken rubbish having been thrown down to tho bottom of the precipice. "On the opposite bank from tho spot where tho emeralds are taken out a stream of water is kept running by means of sluices in a reservoir, and as the sluices are opened, every fifteen minutes, the water is allowed to rush down the rocks with great force, the torrent clearing away all the broken Mono thrown down by the miners sineo tho last discharge."
