Con Cunningham, of Crawfordsville, is here to-day. He came over just to give his friends the bonetit of his presence, and that there is not, ho says, the least bit of political significance attached to his visit. Mr. Cunningham was one of the faithful who went to Washington after an oflice—consul to Belfast, Ireland—but he is not proud and is willing to take some other position. Notwithstanding reports to the contrary, Mr. Cunningham has not retired from the race. "I haven't been at Washington for three weeks, but 1 am still in the light, and think my chances are as good as any one'B else. In fact they are a littlo better, I think and I feol certain I shall receive an appointment. We must watch and wait, you know."'—Indianapolis News.

A HOEKIBLE DEATH,
Mrs. Margaret Thompson Meets an Awful Fate Kicked to Death by a Horse. Mrs. Margaret Thompson, reJict of tho lato Amos Thompson, met a horrible death under tho foot of a maddened liorso iast Wednesday evening at her homo nine miles northwest of the city. About half past six o'clock in the evening Mrs. Thompson went into the stable for the purpose of gathering oggs. About the same time Alex. Strobe, tho hand, went into tho mow to pitch down hay. In a few minutes Strobo hoard a noiso in the stalls below—and on going down to learn tho cause was horrified to see tho body of Mrs. Thompson lying under a largo work horso while the animal was viciously stamping her with her rough shod hoofs. Jumping over tho manger Strobo attempted to lift the lifeless body from its position when the animal turned upon him and drove him from tho stall. Ho made a second attempt to rescue the bodywhen tho horse kicked him twice on tho leg and hip. He then yollod lustily for Cyrus Thompson, son, who was only a short distance from the barn, and after a hard struggle succeed in getting tho old lady out. She presontod an awful sight. Hor head and faco was stamped beyond recognition. Her clothes woro torn almost from her body whilo her body was covered with gashes and bruises where tho crazed animal had driven his iron hoofi. Death must have come to her relief quickly for lifo was extinct when Strobo first soon and called to bor. Tho animal is a common work horse and has always boon considered gentle. It is presumed that when Mrs.
Thompson entered tho stall tho horso failed to recognizo her and became frightened. Ho evidently 6^:in operation by squeezing hor to tho side of tho stall after which he got her under his feet and finished his work of death. Sho certainly uttered no scream as either Strobo nor Cyrus Thompson would have heard her.
Mrs. Margaret Thompson was born in Butler county, Ohio, in May 1820. Sho came to this county with her husband, Amos Thompson, now deceased, more than 50 years ago and settled on the farm on which sho died. Fivg children was born to them, all of whom yet live Samuel Newton, Mrs. Isaac Jones, Cyrus and Walter. Mrs. Tompsou was one of the best known ladies in tho county. Her friends sho numbered by scores. Possessed of a happy disposition and a lady of many Christian virtues none knew her but to lovo her. Her untimely death was a terrible shock to her family and friends and the heartfelt sympathies of all go out to the griof stricken children.
McOlellan's Downfall.
'Tho mantle of disgrace has fallen over the c.'ark and shadowy form of McClellau Washington Jones, oro of tho thirteen heirs of our esteomed colored citizen, Burrell Jones. For sometime past McClollan has been serving in the capacity of chaplain of tho "Neverswoats,'' and that order has now gone into thirty days mourning over the downfall of their rovored brother. It appears that ono night last weok seven choice young turkeys disappeared from tho roost of farmer West, who lives on tho Dovan farm, on tho Attica road, and some evil disposed person had the temerity to lay the cause of their untimely taking off at the door of young McClollan. Be that ah it may Mc. was arrested Saturday night and ruthlessly thrown into tho body of the jail where he yot languishes. He loudly proclaims his innocence and swears he will make his traducor sweat blood when ho is once more at liberty.
Latbr—McClollan was arraigned in the Mayor's court Wednesday and proved beyond doubt that he was innocent of the charge. He is again free and the spot from his character removed.
