ICY GETS THERE.

She Comt'* Off Victorious In AptilnM ller.

It is no joke to remark that it is a cold day when Icy gets left. Naturally it would bo a very cold day.

The trial of Miss Icy Alston, the piquant little birch wielder of Bristle Ridge, occupied all Saturday afternoon. Icy was charged with being too warm itfith Ota, the seven-year-old daughter of George Charters, having used Solomon's oil in undiluted condition on not only the back bnt also the face of the said Charter's child. Several witnesses took the stand and with their good right hands raised to heaven and their pauts in their boots solemnly swore that they visited the Charters mansion several days after the "lickin" aud saw the red marks on the. child's face. It seems that the child's parents had inaugurated a sort of an Eden musee with the little girl as star attraction and that the whole neighborhood had (locked iu and witnessed the show.

Miss Icy swore that if she struck the child in the face that it was wholly accidental.

The cause of the administering of punishment was set forth at some length. It seems that little Ota is a sort of a "Klep." She had developed a morbid penchant for the property of the other scholars and nailed everything in sight. Before Miss Icy took up the deadly gad little Ota had been detected in several rather shady transactions. In the artless simplicity of childhood she hooked a big "cookie." stuffed full of raisins and carawa3' seed, from the desk of an impotent neighbor and then made a foray on the apple supply of another. At the time of the whipping she had branched off into the confiscation of slate pencils and other munitions incident to the moulding of the plastic mind of youth.

The jury wrestled with the issue a short time and then returned a verdict for the defendant, vindicating her before the law.

There have been several teachers tried for whipping pupils in this county lately and they have almost invariably been acquitted. Montgomery county juries are ardent believers in the eternal efficacy of a good hickory gad.

Somebody to Blame.

Judge Harney states that when he allowed Messrs. Anderson and Haywood S2,000 for prosecuting the Pettit case in the Supreme court that it was with the distinct understanding that Tippecane eounty had agreed to foot the bill. Mr. Haywood waited on Judge Harney and assured him that such was the case.. The Tippecanoe county officials evidently proved recreant to a promise made Mr. Haywood.

He Did Not Ride.

We see by the Indianapoliis News that Rilus Eastman did not participate the famous "fox chase.'" On the day of that interesting event he was not in town, having gone to Mitchell to take part in the meeting of a medical societv.

Had Stone.

Four car loads of stone for the Wabash avenue bridge arrived yesterday and was promptly refused. It was of good quality but was of no shape, being a collection of unwieldy triangles and rough corners. It will be shipped back at once.

S1ER SHIP CANAL.

Prof. Cmupbt-ll, of Wnbnoli College. IIus An Kmbryo Scheme.

Indittuupolis Journal: A tall, slender man, with keen blue eyes aud a stubby gray beard,lounged about the corridors of the Oenison Hotel Christmas morning. He was Prof. John L. Campbell, of Wabash College. Professor Campbell for years has been interested iu the geodetic survey of Indiana. He conceived the p'an of removing the Momence rock from the Kankakee river, and successfully accomplished the task. lie is familiar with every curve of the Kankakee channel, aud knows every foot of the marsh land lying in the northern part of the State. Four or live years ago the Professor startled his friends by a proposition to furnish the city of Chicago with water from the Kankakee river, but the scheme is yet in embryo. Prof. Campbell is now nursing the hobby of a ship canal through Indiana. He believes it is only a question of a few years when ocean steamers will be plying betweeu the seaboard and the great lakes, and expects to witness the sight of an ocean schooner plowing its way through the Uoosier State. "The demand for a ship canal through In iiana grows greater every day," said the Professor. "Other States are agitating the question, and Ohio is preparing to get an appropriation through Congress for the purpose. I have talked to Governor Matthews about it, and he is highly iu favor of the plan. I think that a ship canal through Indiana should follow the course of otlie old Erie canal, which touched Huntington on the north and Vincennes on the south. There is no reason why the Indiana farmer should not load his grain on board an ocean vessel right here at home. I have figured that a ship canal through the State would save the farmer ." cents a bushel on his wheat alone. I think that in a few years a canal will be built from the Atlantic ocean west to the lakes, and Indiana should get the benefit of it. Of course it will require a great deal of money to get the movement through, and it would have to be done by Congress."

Professor Campbell's plan to furnish Kankakee water to the Chicago people is a novel one. He says that a line of pipe could Vie run from llaum's bridge in Porter county to Chicago, a distance of about sixty miles. He thinks that the Kankakee and its tributaries could furnish the city with an ample supply of pure water.
