Tom Wells is seventy six years of age. served in both the Mexican war and the Rebellion, and had a classical education, but he liarf been a besotted drunkard for many years, lie gets a pension of S12 month, and some lime ago got SI.200 back pay. We are informed that spent the money, while drunk, for property in Barnard. and then deeded the property to a worthless woman Mr. Rose will try to recover title to the property if possible.

At the Adams Express Co.'s oflice in Logansport are several specimens of the coin, while numerous other places about that town arc reported to liave a greater or less number. The aggregate sum out of which the business men of Logansport have been defrauded is said to reach into the hundreds.

WITH THE JURY,

Fate of Fair Cordelia Coleman trtitttcd to the Decision of Twelve «OM1 Men and True,

Elmer Stuckey is the son of Kate, and he heard Cordelia make threats against Colman to his mother. The ighteous Elmer was upstairs at the time and by applying his ear to the entilator was able to listen to conersation below.

Mrs. Sarah Cosby is half sister of Elmer and sister of Wes Pursee. When Wes and Mrs. Coleman had a row Mrs. Coleman got her to try atid adjust the difficulties. She failed to do so and when asked by the defendant stated that she believed that Mrs. lvate Stoolcey would take sides with Wes.

W. M. Sheets and wife testified that when the barn was burned that they ived on Mrs. Coleman's farm two miles from Coleman's place. She lived in a room built onto the house they occupied. She was in their room at 8 o'clock the evening of the lire and might have gone over to Coleman's afterwards without their knowing the fact. The next noon Mrs. Sheets went nto Cordelia's room and found her reading a Sunday school lesson. She told of the tire but Cordelia said never a word. She afterwards spoke of it to her but Cordelia would never discuss the affair.

Dan White is a fiddler tine and acts as orchestra at the country dances. On the night that the chickens were killed he met Cordelia coining down the road from Coleman's at midnight The da nee had been at Jake Hinton's place.

Tom 1'lannigah. Jesse Coyher, Wm Mclntyre and I. M. Ryan testified that Cordelia had declared she would get even with her ex-husband and that he should never prosper.

Frank Ryker repaired the buggy and thought the damage had been done with shears.

Orville Coleman is the son of the plaintiff and defendant and is about fourteen years old. Orville is a happy young calf and swore as stoutly as the redoubtable Wes I'ursce. Orville had seen his mother prowling around a few nights before the barn was burned and had seen tracks that looked like hers about the buggy shed the day before the buggy was cut. Coleman's step daughter Laura Cory, testified also to seeing the tracks.

Marion Fry testified that he lived near Mrs. Coleman and that on the night of the demise of the poultry that she came prancing over to his house about midnight and said a lot of men had dragged her out of her house and assaulted her. She was wet above the knees and had evidently crossed the dew covered clover field.

Wes I'ursee, the man who is with Coleman behind the prosecution and who is very sore at the fair Cordelia because she beat him in a law suit, then clambered upon the witness stand with his bald head shining like the dome of a Chinese temple. Wes was a vicious witness and threw the darts thick and fast into the defendant's ease. He swore that she had told him that she fed Coleman's hogs pulverized lass to kill them and had frequently begged the witness to buy her some arsenic to poison the rest of his stock

On cross examination the virtuous Wes identified as his own some very sappy letters he had written the winsome Cordelia to eorr.c and live with him. The defense drew a rather ugly inference from these as to the motive of the gentleman with the bald head. In one of the.letters he had said, "people will talk anyhow, so let them roar Let the people howl."

Julia Colman, the present wife of William, or as he is better known Ucnt" Coleman, came upon the stand like dream of Paradise. She was divorced from a former husband about the time Coleman was divorced and when she married Coleman she brought with her a very comfortable covey of Corey kids—Cory being her name by former marriage. Julia testified to seeing the tracks about the buggy house and other minor matters and was then dished up on cross examination. Julia denied having been fond of Coleman before her divorce. "Didn't you like him before you were divorced'.'"' asked Judge Thomas. "No, I didn t: retorted the lady. "Well, when did vou get so you liked him "1 reckon 1 never have liked liiin!" was the surprising rejoinder which caused her happy husband to gasp for breath and the audience to laugh. Mrs. Coleman testified to a reluctance to allowing her daughter Lucy to go around with Coleman's son Orville

Years tiie

Plaintiff Hintou,

Jake is fond of dancing and gives a hop to his admiring friends every change of the moon. He was dead certain, however, that he did not have a dance the night the Coleman chickens lost their head and that Dan White was not at his house then and hence could not have seen Cordelia in the road that night.

ISruee Moore, an oily tongued insurance agent, swore that Coleman told him that he suspected Elmer Stookey and Wes Pursee of burning his barn.

Howard Riley and wife testified that Cordelia spent the night on which the barn burned at their house. She might have got up and gone over to Coleman's, however, without their knowing it.

Marion Fry was recalled and swore to accompanying Cordelia home the night she was assaulted. He saw there men's tracks and found on the ground a man's cuff holder. .Toe Parsons testified that he saw Coleman beating Cordelia In the woods one day and that he was acting most savagely.

The defendant took the stand and stated that she did not know how old she was but thought she was about fifty. She had been married to Coleman twenty years lacking three days when they were divorced. Mrs. Coleman then denied flatly every charge made against her by the prosecution. She testified that she was at Howard Riley's the night the house burned and that her son Orville slept with her that night. Dora White was with her the night the barn burned. She explained the false face incident by stating that she had found it on the streets of Colfax and had picked it up "for fear it might skeer the bosses." She knew nothing about the death of the hogs but heard that they died as a re suit of eating the burnt horses. She denied having confessed anything to •detective" Morrison and in fact entered an almost general denial to this good man's story.

She detailed the white capping epi sode at length. She was aroused one night by a noise outside and going out was brutally assaulted by two men. She thought one was Coleman and the other his present wife's son She denied having tu'id Kate Stookey anything or ever having made any threats against Coleman before her. Mrs. Stookey she said had frequently urged her to take revenge on Coleman but the witness had replied that she wasn't the "fightin' kind." To this Mrs. Stookey said. "Naw. 3»ou caint do nuthin' but cry.'' The witness was never on the road at night and hence never met Dan White, the fiddler. Ellen Rider, the illegitimate child of Coleman had frequently beaten her after she came to live with them and on one occasion Coleman coming into the room offered Ellen S10 to give his wife a "good one.'"

On cross examination the witness was mixed as to dates but nothing startling was developed.

In rebuttal the plaintiff put on Slier in Tyson, A1 Wetherjl, Warner 11a worth, Everett and John Morrison Wm. Sheets and wife, and Emanuel Jacoby to prove the defendant as pos sessed with a bad reputation for veracity. Coleman denied the charge made against liim by Cordelia.

The defense then put on Simeon Bry ant and others who swore they had never heard ill of Cordelia.

This morning was consumed in the argument of the ease and fur was made to fly on all sides. Shortly after noon tlie jury was instructed and re tired to makeup its verdict.
