Why is it so many boys about town are out of school. This should not be, and parents are to blame for 'them not obtaining an education instead of roaming around town and in all kinds of devilment.

There has beeu a great deal of talk here for a year about our taxes being so very high, owing to tho high appraisement. One man from this place said that when ho paid his it was not neur so high as last year.

Billy Thompson and Berza Kashnor

were married on Thursday of last week at the Presbyterian church by Elder Trotter in the presence of a large crowd who had been invited to witness the beautiful ceremony. May happiness, prosperity and peace be their faithful attendants through life is our sincere wieh.

Shannondale can vote a tax for Franklin township to buy an old worn out gravel road, when Darlington and the north side of the township did not have a chance to vote. But you could not have carried the election in any pother way, as the talk here was that it would oaly oost four hundred dollars to purchase the road, but I see it cost five hundred. Is there any justice in this way of doing? If there is we fail to see it that way.

Darlington is going to be on a boom in the spring and summer. Several residences will be erected as soon aB the weather will permit. It is rumored that a man from New Richmond is coming here to build a hotel. Come right along and we will welcome you, and if a hotel is started in this place it will be a good investment. We have needed Buch an accommodation here for several years and now is the time to make a start. The business of the town demands it and the traveling public are longing for the time to come when they can. stop at a regular hotel in Darlington.

fS IN A BAD LIGHT.

Judge Everett Says the Wabash Valley Protective Union Practice fraud and Deceit.

Judgo Frank B. Everett haB just handed down a decision in the superior court that is of great moment and financial interest to all policy holders in the Wabash Valley Protective Union. This insurance company has been operating at Crawfordsvillo with N. J. Clodfelter as secretary and general manager. The company issues a joint policy to husband and wife payable at the death of either and the money with which to pay these policies is secured by an assessment-

The rules and regulations of the company provide, that in case an assessment does not provide the indemnity, then the policy holder is entitled to an amount not exceeding 5 per cent, of the reserve or mortuary fund, this amount to make good the shortage of the assessment. The rules also provide, that an assessment shall not exceed §5.34.

Hugh B. James and Annie James, of Montgomery county, took out policy No. 940 for S3,000 as husband and wife. Mrs. James died July 30, 1889, and Mr. James at once furnished proof ot her death to the company, showing that death resulted from involuntary causes.

The defendant, the Wabuwh valley protectivo union, exhibited delay in paying the claim and finally ga\e Mr.

James

S600, claiming that assessment No. 17, the one made on tho death of Mrs. Jemes had only realized S513, and that there was no mortuary fund on hand. Mr. James accepted tho 8600 and then brought suit against the company to secure the remainder of the policy, $2,400. The suii was filed in the Montgomery county circuit court, was venued to Fountain county and theu came.to the superior court at Lafayette.

Judge Everett's findings are very concise and place the insurance company before the public in a very unenviable light. He found

First—That assessment No. 17 made on policy No. 940 realized to the insurance company before 82,835.92, instead of 8513, as represented by the company to Mr. James.

Second—That there was a surplus of 8832 in tho hands of the company as a result of assessment No. 1(5.

Third—That at the time of the death of Mrs. James and thereafter the company had a reserve or mortuary fund of at least 815.000

Fourth—That tho company delayed the payment of the policy and represented that the assessment for Mrs. James' death had only realized 8543 and that tho company had no reserve fun1consequently tho 8543 was the only fund they had with which to satisfy the claim.

Fifth—That all the representations made to the plaintiff by the defendant were false and fraudulent and were made for the purpose of defrauding the plaintiff, and was consummated by deceit and fraud, and that the defendant in consummating such settlement was guilty of fraud in fact.

Sixth—That the plaintiff was damaged by this fraudulent conduct of the defendand in the sum of 82,400.

In closing his very forcible and unmistakable findings the judge held that the complaint was good in all of its issues and rendered judgement for tho plaintiff in tho sum of 82,662.40.

The attorneys who represented Mr. James have 'four similar suits ready to file against the insurance company, and, if Judgo Everett's decision is sustained there is likely to be an avalanche those suits.

Judge Everett rendered judgement on his findings and tho attorneys for the plaintiff intimate that, if the judgementf is not satisfied, they will institute criminal proceedings against the tnombern of the company.—Lafayette Journal.

CRU8HZD IN A WBKCK.

CHICAGO, Feb. 11.—A Fort Wayne passenger train running 30 miles an hour crashed into a Thirty-fi-st street cross-town car filled with passengers Wednesday noon. Eleven passengers •were injured and one killed. John Maylan, of No. 25 Elburn street, WM the name oi the latter.

A Death-Trap.

There are ten tracks at the Thirtyfirst street crossing. The east track is used by north-bound passenger trains and next to it is the track for southbound trains. At 13:20 west-bound cross-town car No. 403 approached the tracks. The gates were down to allow a south-bound train to pass. After it had passed the gate man, Frank Tryanck, raised the gates, which was notice to teams and street* cars that the track was clear. At the same moment Conductor James Coughlin signaled the driver of the street car to go ahead. Coughlin was standing on the tracks when he gave the signal. The driver, John Howe, started the car, but had scarcely got his horses by the gates when they were let down upon the car by the gateman, who saw a north-bound passenger train approaching and attempted to shut the car out, but too late.

Struelr by the Train.

The in-bound train, running 30 miles an hour, crashed into the rear end of the street car like a shot from a cannon. The car was lifted up and landed 60 feet away, a total wreck. Some of the passengers had seen the train coming and made a wild rush -for the front door of the car, but only two or three succeeded in getting out before the crash. The rest were bruised, cut with glass and crushed so that they were badly hurt internally. Some who proved to be the only slightly hurt were so stunned by the shock that they had to be assisted to rise.

Passengers Shaken Up.

A switch engine backed a train of empty coaches down upon a Northwestern suburban train Wednesday morning, wrecking the smoking car and severely injuring several of the passengers. -P

The accident occurred almost within the Northwestern depot The suburban train, which was from Highland Park, was struck by the backing train and one side was torn out. The passengers were thrown to -the floor and cut with flying glass.

CHICAGO,

Feb.

11.—James

Couch, one

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.—A score or mora of jewelers in Maiden Lane claim to havti been swindled out of £50,000 worth of loose diamonds and from $30,000 to $50,000 worth of jewelry. Substantially it is the old story, of a firm building up a fair credit, buying stock heavily on time, and then a suspension, followed by a mj'sterious disappearance of the assets and books. This is what the suspended firm of D. Gundling & Co., jewelry merchants, No. 45 Maiden Lane, are accused of doing. David Gundling, the senior member of the firm, was arrested and lodged in Ludlow street. jaiL Gundling's bf.il has been set at S10.000.
