down near
Hillsboro and is somewhat addicted to the liquor habit. Wednescay William drove up to this city to see the sights. After hitching his team he lost no time in filling his
carcaBS
full of bad whiskey.
In some manner William got loose during the day and wandered far, far away. This so disconcerted the inebriated Fountain countyite that he fell to the flowing bowl with renewed vigor. About midnight he was found lying out in the cold near the Big Four station and almost frozen. Officer Huffman was summoned and started with his man for the jail. When near the Methodist church Vourhees stumbled and fell, alighting in such a manner as to break his log near the knee. A cab was hailed and tj|e unfortunate man taken to the Sherman House where Dr. Ensminger sei the broken member. Friday he was able to be taken to his home in Hillsboro. The missing team was captured east of the city and will be sent through to-day.

POOR MISS VON JJOKEY
Will Turn Over In Her. Grave And Groan —The Plot Thickens. "And the villian still pursued her.'' Had the late lamented Madame Von Rokey had any idea of the trouble her sudden demise would causo among certain members of the legal fraternity, she certainly would have foregone her trip over the Monon on the 11th day of last January. It has been nothing but a constant squabble between attorneys Shrum and Courtney as to who should possess the sparkling diamonds and glittering short-Bkirted parapharnalia in which she used to delight the bald-heads in her fantastic aerial kicks. Attorney Courtney renewed the conflict thiB week and filed a motion to have Mr. Shrum desposed as administrator of the estate. In this motion Mr. Courtney Btates that the decedent was an alien, being a native of Austria and that after her death, John L. Shrum falsely, recklessly and ignorantly made affidavit asking to be appointed administrator. He knew it was the place of the coroner and treasurer to hold the alien's effects and he acted as authority in the case. He was not the widow, widower or creditor of the decedent and had no business to tampor with the estate. He swore at the time that he believed her to leave an estate of S25 when he knew absolutely nothing of her affairs, her debtors or her creditors. Ho merely volunteers in a meddlesome manner to serve as administrator of whom or of whoso property or relatives ho knew or knows nothing. He holds the position for tho purpose of greed and gain. He has been spending beforehand in silly law suits the money he holds to obtain from an unknown estate. He has taken anew lease on legal life by filing non-sensical and annoying suits against tho affiant. The afliant declares that if there should bo an administrator for the estate that person should be a competent one. The affiant therefore aslis that tho defendant be desposed and obliged to relinquish all suits at his own cost. Mr. Shrum's answer to tho petition states that tho petition was filed by Mr. Courtney merely to vex and annoy the court. That it contained* only frivolous and foolish statements tending to stultify tho court. The petition has not yet been ruled on,

Probably Fatally Poisoned. Tho hydrophobia scare still continues in the vicinity of Now Ross. It will be remembered that the RKVIKW made mention two weeks ago that a number of dogs and cattle were killed there tocause they showed unmistakable signs of hydrophobia. Finally a human victim was added to the list, in regard to which a Bpecial correspondence from New Ross to the Journal of Wednesday' says A few miles southeast of this place John Steward had a dog that had been bitten by the wandering canine which scattered the disease. Instead of killing tho dog Mr. Steward chained him up to see if ho would really go mad. The dog began to act strangely a day or so ago and foamed at the mouth in a fearful manner. Yesterday after tugging vainly at his chain in a spirit- o£ fearful rage, the dog fell back upon the ground as though he was choking to death. Mr. Stewart, who had been observing him, hastened out to loosen tho Btrap around the dog's neck. Mr. Steward had a sore hand and in working with the dog he accidentally let fall upon this wound some of tho chewed upsaliva from the beast's mouth. AB soon, as ho could loium 10 the house ho washed tho wound but in vain. The venom had entered his blood and soon his hand began to swell. Last night his arm to his shoulder was frightfully swollon and the poor man was suffering untold agony. It is thought that his blood has been poisoned to such an extent as to preclude tho possibility of re

Gen. Wallace Wot "In It." The following republican delegates at large for tlio Slate were selected at Indianapolis Thursday: Col. R. W. Thompson, Vigo St.vunton J. Peele, Marion N. F. DoPauv, Floyd C. F. Griffin Porter. As Gen. Wallace's name was not considered in connection with the above it is jnst possible that his selection at Brazil as a delegate two weeks ago was sorving a doublo pur-', pose. Mr. Wallace was known to be an"' ardent supporter of C. N, Williams for tho county chairman and therebv engendered the eternal hatred of Dice, Brush & Co. IJo wanted to bo a delepate at large in order to moro ably support his friend Harrison, but hia chances wore nipped in tho bud by his appointment at Brazil.
