RIPLEY'S 0ID HEN.
Shakes the Township Prom Center to Circumferenoe. Bound Over in $200. One of the most disgraceful feuds that ever darkened a page In the history of good old Ripley township is at present at white heat. As is unusual in such cases, the very best people of the towuship are iuvntved which signifies that litigation will be long and bitterly contested, and, after it is settled in court will leave a gapping wound that time alone can heal. That which tends to lend flavor to the sensation is the fact that the defendant is a very beautiful young lady scarcely twenty years of age and one of the leading society belles of that part of the county. It is a case where neighborly friendship of near twenty years standing is sacrificed for an old black hen and a speckeled pullet The facto in the case are about as follows: The people of the township have been somewhat annoyed of late by the petty theft of chickens and other small articles of value. Jacob Beam has been one of the chief sufferers, and, on Wednesday morning, the 21st day of May, he awoke to find his hennery robbed for the fourth time this season. He at once determined to investigate matters, and going to Fruit's store where the chickens of the neighborhood are sold he left a description of the stolen property. He soon received word that the chickens In question had been left there. They had been left by Alice Follick. Fruits stated that when she brought them she stated that they were part of them the property of her married sister, Rose. As Mr. Beam was positively able to identify his favorite hen, "old speck" and "long neck" among those left at Fruits', he at the instigation of the Horse Thief Detective Association finally consented to swear out a warrant agalUBt the daughter of his old friend and neighbor. This was served last Friday by Marshal Ensminger, and an effort made to get the girl to confess. She positively denied all knowledge of the affair and was taken in custody. The case came up Wednesday in the small court room before Esquire Cumberland before a large crowd. About fifty witnesses were sworn, but not more than half that number testified. The defense put up a very strong case while the prosecution worked theirs for all there was in it. Isaac Follic, father of the girl, testified that his daughter was at her home the entire night on which the poultry was taken, and that she wai too ill to leave her room until the following morn ing. Miss Follic testified that she had not been on Beams' farm for a month and that the chickens sold were her own.
The general impression among the people in the community and those who heard the tistimony is that the youug lady did not steal the chickens. A member of the Horse Thief Company who is urging the prosecution says that he did not think the girl guilty, but that she knew who the guilty parties were. In the face of the evidence Justice Cumberland bound her ovc to court the sum of $' It is to be regreted that the scandal was ever brought into court, but both parties are determined and it Is war to the knife and the knife to the hilt.

"There's something rotten in Denmark," exclaimed an irate citizeu the other day to a REVIEW uiau, Upon being questioned as to this ill oder lie replied: "Why, haven't youheard of t,lie decision of the board of public improvements in regard to these road scrapers? No? Well th it is the meanest thing you ever heard or. You sea the city council had ordered the purchase of a road scraper and demanded that each machine be given a public test before a purchase was made. Three machines appeared on the day set for trial, Tinsley fc Martin having one, Zach Maborney another and an imported one by LaFayette pq ties. The lest was made and each' scraper di} .about the same amount of work in the same time, each doing its work about the same, iu fact the .machines were so equally matched that the judges could not decide as to the superior one. Then it only became a matter of price. The Tinsley.Martin and Lafayette machines were offered at $215-each and the Mahorney scraper at ^210. ftiw, what do you suppose they did? They bought the Lafayette machine, thus robbing our owh citizens and tax payers and sent the money away from home, and these same men cry hard times aud why do you go away from.
