A Hrlef Sketch of His Life—The Funeral Service*.

Thomas J. Francis died on July 31, 1894, at 4 o'clock p. in. The deceased was one of our best known citizens, and was born at Boone Creek, Clark county, Kentucky, May 25, 1814. He emigrated to this State with his mother, two sisters and one brother, when but a boy and settled in Lawreuce county. His father died when he was quite small, and of the live that came to this State he was the last one to pass away. When a boy Mr. Francis carried the mail on horse back from Vincennes to Indianapolis, lie learned the blacksmith trade aud carried on that business successfully at Bedfdrd and Bloomington until 1807, at which time he moved to this city, where he engaged in the same business until old age and feeble "health caused him to retire. He was a man of strong constitution andonotwithstanding his old age has fought a hard battle with that dreaded enemy, the grip, to which he was finally compelled to surrender.

The funeral services were held this afternoon conducted by Rev. G. P. Fuson.

The pall-bearers were: C. W. Eltzroth, Loren Miller, J. V. Kccran, Hence Coleman, Win. Enoch and Joshua Mclvinsey. Interment was made at Oak Hill.

I'or tlie Montgomery Guiinln.

To the Editor Journal. In your issue of July 28, ult.. our fellow townsman, Mr. T. W. Lawson, appeared in a short article opposing the very popular idea of the city bearing the expense of furnishing uniforms for the military company which has been organized by Gen. Lew Wallace. and known as Co. of the Montgomery Guards. Granting all that Mr. Lawson says about our city being small (I suppose he means in population only, for we are larger in many ways than more populous cities) and that our citizens are orderly and quiet, aud that our factories employ no anarchists, etc., etc., let us see whether our city would be "throwing money away for buncombe," as he says by assuming the small obligation of uniforming the company.

Before the war there was a military company in Crawfordsville known as the Montgomery Guards, of which Wallace was the Captain. This company was a Godsend to the country at the outbreak si the rebellion, aud furnished to the country many valuable officers for service at a time when trained and disciplined men were sadly too scarce and our imperiled nation needed them the most. That old Guard was the pride of the city and of the State. In 1877 another company of younger men was organized by Gen. Wallace, thoroughly drilled and disciplined by him, and gained for our city the renown of having the best military organization in the State, and was in demand to attend Fourth of July celebrations even outside of the State of Indiana. On account of Gen. Wallace being sent as Governor to New Mexico, and subsequently as Minister to Turkey this last company suspended, but did not abandon its organization. Its members are now of the age. aud surrounded by such cares as to require an honorable retirement from the labors and duties of an active military company but each one feels a laudable and patriotic pride in seeing the old Montgomery Guards perpetuated aud glorified by the infusion of young aud vigorous blood in its ranks. I give the above brief summary of the Montgomery Guards more especially for the information of Mr. Lawson. for he lias not been a citizen of Crawfordsville long enough to have become inspired by and of the city's cherished traditions, nor of that urbanity which should prompt every citizen to seek to preserve whatever renown and glory she has attained. If our new comer can find any legal objections to the proposition now before the City Council, he should strike this enterprise in that way. It would present him to the people amongst whom he has come to reside in a better light.

The taxable property of the city is four millions of dollars (S|,OCN).UIOI. Supposing the cost to the city to uniform the company was 81,000, the proportion which Mr. Lawson would have to pay according to his taxes last year, would be seven and one-half cents. Should his taxes the coming year be ten or a hundred times more, every cent he. would have to pay would be for the bettermeut of himself, his property, his neighbors, the city and the State. A man with 110 public spirit, one who would shrink from the mere pittance of a few cents rather than have the town of his adoption alive and progressive, and up with the day and age ought to live where his taxes would be applied to mowing the dog fennel from the streets and burying the carcasses of defunct grumblers.

Beat* Its Own Time.

The Monon passenger from the north has run in here ahead of time for three days and passed the train going north here instead of at Cherry Grove. This may seem strange to some persons, yet it is a fact. On Monday it was 17 minutes ahead, Sunday 10, and to-day 7. The train north, however, was a few minutes late, and by the south-bound train not stopping at Cherry Grove, and a few more turns of the wheels per minute has enabled the train to come in ahead. But it does not leave here until the regular time, so no person will get left on this account.

HE TOOK TIE CHILD.

DHVUI Xewlami Before the Mayor for Taking HI* Child from HU Former Wife.

The case against David Newland, Zeph Newland and Will Newland, all of Smartsburg, was up for trial before Mayor Bandel this morning. George D. Hurley defended the accused. The trouble arose over a four-year-old boy of David Newland aud Mrs. Michael Lourie, who live near Darlington. Mrs. Lourie was formerly the wife of David Newland, aud on June 21, 1893, Newland aud Michael Lourie signed a contract, drawn up by S. S. Martin, of Darlington, Iud., that Newland could take the child and keep it and he would not molest him in any way. On July 11. 1S94, Mrs. Lourie went to Mrs. Zeph Ncwland's, her sister, and got the boy and took him home. Then that night the three Newlands went up and recaptured the boy and this is what caused the trial.

Mrs. Lourie testified that she got the child because her sister had said she hated him and did not wanted to have him around. That the same night the three Newlands came to her house, forced open the window with a liatehet, crawled in and demauded the boy. That Zeph Newland had held her on the bed and choked her, while David Newland, her former husband, had forcibly taken the child from her. That when the men were in the house they took the lamp, carrying a revolver, and searched for her husband, who they said they were going to kill. Her husband, however, had fled out the back door and thus escaped injury. She said that the child said he had not been fed enough and was always hungry. The testimony of her husband was about the same.

The Prosecutor here called John Newland, who said he had not been summoned, and did not want to testify. But he was brought forward and denied telling the Prosecutor and Mrs. Nettie Rlioades, that David Newland had told him that he had entered the house through a window. Mrs. Rhodes then testified that John Newland had said this before her and Prosecutor Moffett since he had entered the Mayor's office.

The defendants testified that Mrs. Lourie had taken the child from them, aud that they went up there after him the same night that they knocked at the door aud Mrs. Lourie opened the door. Then David stepped inside and demanded his child. Mrs. Lourie went to the bed and gathered the lad in her arms and did not want to give him up, but lie took the child from her. That she said her husband was in the back room, and that they had no revolvers. Tliey all deny breaking in the house.

At the conclusion of the evidence and the speeches of the attorneys, the Mayor lined David aud Zeph Newlin So each, with costs in each case of ?17. The case against Will was dismissed. Zeph was taken to jail until lie pays or furnishes a bond.

During the progress of the case the little boy would go to his mother and ask for something to eat. or a drink, and she would go out and attend to his wants. She also had a child about a year old. Mrs. Lourie said that she always did want the boy. and had nothing to do with the agreement. She has stolen him twice in the last vear.

A Surprise.

On Monday evening, Mrs. John Skidmore entertained a number of friends in commemoration of the thirty-sixth birthday of her husband. There were thirty couples present and there was no event to mar the enjoyment of the iruests.

LESS RANT THAN FORMERLY.

There I. Now a More Quiet System in th Practice of Uv. "There is as much learning here in the. legal profession as ever but it Is not on exhibition," said & lawyer to a Philadelphia Record man. "In the first place, the courts will not countenance its undue display. In old times an advocate was allowed great latitude. Formerly, in a case of damages caused by a neglected sidewalk, the attorney would be allowed to expound not only the laws relating to damages for neglect but he might stray off into the realms of medical jurisprudence at groat length and even perorate with an allusion to the. magna charta. the constitution and the American eagle. At present a lawyer must confine himself to the real merits of his case. The machinery of our courts has grown too costly to permit such waste of time.

It follows that there is less oratorical skill displayed than in former days, especially at the period when some of our leading lawyers made a specialty of criminal defense. Now few lawyers of eminence either in Philadelphia or the east generally undertake the defense In a criminal case. "To-day the practice of law, like other professions, is being more and more specialized. A law office Is simply a business office, as you may discover by visiting some of the new handsome office buildings down town. I know of one office, where there are several partners, that would remind you of a banking office and where a bookkeeper and a cashier are employed to pay off clerks, typewriters and other employes. You will, however, still find veteran members of the bar pursuing old-time methods in a cozy, quiet oftlce, sitting at a baize-covered table amid a wilderness of well-thumbed books. They cfirry a dark green bag filled with briefs when they go to court, precisely as all lawyers did fifty years ago and as London barristers still do. "As to young lawyers, however talented they may be, if without social prestige their struggle to advance in the profession is sure to be a hard one.

Practice now is often inherited or transmitted in some other way. I could point out to you in Philadelphia law firms that have been confined to the members of one family or its collateral branches since the revolution."

Joit What Ilo Wanted.

A man who was not exactly a tramp, and at the same time not exactly a thrifty citizen, applied for a job at a certain wholesale house. "I'm very sorry," apologized the head of the firm, "but I'm afraid I can do nothing for you." "Why can't you?" asked the applicant, insistently. "Because I've got nothing for you to do." "That's no objection at all," was the cheerful response. "That's the kind of a lob that would suit me best."

And he didn't get it neither did he get the dime he asked for as a compromise.—Detroit Free Press.

A MEL0MANIAC.

How Capt. Tavernier Was "Transferred to the Thirteenth."

The pupils of the Polyteohnio School of Fraflce have a queer way of expressing the fact that one of their number has become deranged. They say of the afflicted man that he is "Transferred to the Thirteenth"—for it Is statistically true that every thirteenth man succumbs to the severe mental strain required for a successful completion of the prescribed course.

Rene Tavernier graduated at tho head of his class, and was consequently free to embrace the civil careea. To every one's surprise, be preferred to enter the artillery. In all soientlflo requirements he ranked preeminent, but his records for military tactios and horsemanship were deplorable, as was also his. want of neatness ,and discipline. He would appear on parade without a collar or mlnuB his buttons, whloh usually only olung to him by a thread. He would answer roll-oall long after the drum had ceased beating, and then wonder why his appearance should create such a disturbance.

In his opinion the oaptaln had a queer way of instructing tho men, "Mr. Tavernier,' you will report for two days under arrest. Return to tho line. You do not know your lesson." "Permit me to remark, oaptain, that this is hardly the way to teach it to me." "You may take four days more." "Delighted, captain, to see that you appreciate the justice of my remark."

Why this singular fellow had ohosen a military career was a mystery to his companions, who even then considered him "slightly off."

Once assigned to a regiment, matters were infinitely worse. Arrests rained upon his indifferent head, for ho whiled away his hours of captivity by solving intricate problems destined for publication, works which gained for hito complimentary letters from the leading mathematical lights of Paris.

When I met Tavernier, lie was with the Eighth artillery, stationed at Metz. Ho seemed placid enough, but his wideopen eyes had a somewhat restless glance, and his eocentricities had already become proverbial in the regiment.

He occupied an apartment consisting of a small bedroom and an enormous parlor, scantily furnished with a grand piano placed between two windows and a round table in one corner. This arrangement of things removed all useless obstacles which Tavernier might have enoountercd In his endless walk up and down. On the table were invariably placed a bottle of absinthe, one of sirup, a decanter of water, glasses, and plates heaped with sweets and cakes. His orderly had instructions to replenish these provisions every morning, for each afternoon they were consumed by a bevy of pretty actresses, chorus giels, and ballerinas, whom the "crazy captain," as they called him, invited to a "live o'clock.

These ladies, in more or less startling gowns, seemed to enjoy these gatherings, where they dissected their neighbors' reputations, chattered, nib':d cakes, and imbibed sweet wines, while their host, hands clasped behind his back, walked through the long extent of the room.

In summer he wore a long coat of light, figured material in winter, a wadded silk kimono. Turkish shoes curved up at the toes, and a smoking cap, jauntily poised upon the back of his head, completed his singular attire.

Passing by each group he had a word for each fair friend. "Dear lady, why did you not come yesterday? I was so uneasy about you." "My dear, you are positively bewitching in that hat." "Couldn't I persuade my charming friend to nibble just one more little cake?" eto. Then, relapsing into his habitual silence, he would continue his walk, completely absorbed in thought.

Nothing ever occurred at these somewhat equivocal gatherings that would not have been considered perfectly correct in tho best society. Only once the usual calm was disturbed by a little variety actress, who, in a spirit of fun, had brought a Turkish fez with her. As the captain passed her, she whipped off his cap, and, substituting the fez, exclaimed: "Behold tho pasha!"

A general laugh greeted this sally. Tavernier, at first surprised at tills lack of respect, tore off the offending headdress. He grew pale such a terrible expression crept into his eyes, that the light-hearted culprit trembled in fear, and her companions no longer laughed.

At length, pointing to the door, Tavernier thundered forth these three words, which sounded like an anathema from heaven: "Leave my presence!"

At the stroke of five, Tavernier brusquely stopped in IIIB walk. "My dears," 6aid he, "it breaks my heart to Interrupt your conversation, but I am forced to beg for five minutes' silence."

He opened the window, sat down before the piano, played for two or three minutes, then leaned forward, anxiously listening to the sounds without.

Evidently satisfied, he returned to the instrument, and again executed several bars, then closed the window, and rapidly wrote something in his notebook. "Now, my dears, pray continue your charming chatter."

His feminine friends had not failed to comment upon the apparent coldness of their host, whose friendship they would have been willing enough to meet more than half way. He, however, was evidently satisfied with their multitudinous presence, and had never evinced an Individual preference.

In fact he was desperately in love. Opposite his house lived M. de Veimon, whose young wife was the object of Tavernier's adoration. Strange to say, he had never spoken to her and had barely seen her. One evening her pretty silhouette had appeared outlined against the curtains—that was all.

But the sounds of her piano had often reached his ear aud soothed his poor sick brain. He was satisfied with that ideal language which she and he alone might understand. He never doubted that her confidences were sent to him through her music and that she alone understood him.

Her piano told him all her life. She was unhappy. She was married when very young to a young man whose despotic nature blighted her life. She thankedhim forhislove itwasherone consolation and hope. He, on the other hand, swore an unending devotion, wished to live for her alone, to bo her savior, to free her from her loveless life.

Every night Tavernier Indited his imaginary conversations in his notebook. The last leaf was found.in his apartment after he had left it for good. It read as follows:

HE—I could not closo my eyes all night. At the thought of your unhapplncss, my soul's desire, I wept. 1 must save you. Say the word, and I am at your Bide. 1

SHE—My life has become unbearable! come, my beloved. I await you. HE—Thank you—thank you, 1 will eaaia to you at ten o'clock, Ta$ oarrlagr will wait at the corner.

OCUUl .Wlllu. uu Ul IliUU S UOOl. "Announce Capt. Tavernier," said he to the servant.

M. and Mrae. de Vermon were seated near the fire. She was embroidering, while her husband read aloud. "To wlint may I attribute the honor of your visit, captain?" asked M. de Vermon. "I have come for miulame." "You have come for my wife? How dare you! Captain, if tills is a joke, I swear to you—" "It is no joke. I am aware of madame's sufferings in this house— besides it is all arranged between us." "What! My wife asked you?" "Madame herself has said nothing to me, but her piano has spoken."

It was then, for the first time, that M. de Vermon saw the restless look in his visitor's eyes, and he took in the situation in a glance. Reassuring Mine, de Vermon, who clung to him, frightened, he instantly added: "Very well, I consent. My wife shall go and make her final preparations for departure. But before she leaves, captain, will you allow me to give her a little advice?" "Certainly, with pleasure.'1

M. de Vermon led his trembling wife to the door of her room and said, in a low voice: "Toll Pierre to call an officer immediately."

Then he returned and sat down near Tavernier. "So, captain, you are persuaded that my wife is unhappy here and you hope to better her lot by taking her with you. You are positively noble in your devotion to her." "Not at all—not at all. I love her with all my soul." "Where do you propose going?" "FirBt to Italy, then to Spain, and finally to Jerusalem." "Splendid! But for such an extended trip I suppose you have ample funds?" "Of course," aud Tavernier poured seven or eight five-franc pieces, the entire contents of his purse, Into his hand, exclaiming: "Judge for yourself!" "You are Indeed well provided in that respect," said De Vermon. "One more question are your papers in order?" "I have no papers," said Tavernier "besides, if any difficulty arises, 1 shall simply say that I am captain in the Eighth artiller3'—that will suffice." "Still, I have my doubts."

At this juncture there was a knock at the door, aud the officer entered. "I am glad to see you, sir," said De Vermon "here is Capt. Tavernier, who proposes to abduct my wife, only his papers are not in order." "Then the captain will not be able to go very far without annoyance. If he will acoompany me, I will procure the necessary passport." "Very well," said Tavernier "but be quick, for the carriage is waiting."

Just then his eye fell upon the piano. "I should like to notify madame, so that she will wait a few minutes." lie struak several chords, then followed the officer.

After they had gone, Mme. de Vermon entered and threw herself trembling into her husbaud's arms. "Ho was mad!" said she. "Mad for love of you," said M. de Vermon, tenderly kissing her. "Poor Gabrielle, I had no Idea you were so unhappyl"

The next day, accompanied by one of his friends, Tavernier loft for Paris. l"hey had persuaded him that the sanotlon of the war department was absolutely necessary for his trip. He was first taken to Val-de-Graco for treatment. He became worse every day.

If you visit the hospital at Charenton j'ou may see in tho main ward a poor maniac incessantly walking, his hands elasped behind him. Whenever ho reaches a window he runs his fingers over the sill, as on the keyboard of a piano, leans back and listens, then again resumes his walk.
