TAYLOR'S WHEREABOUTS.

The Defaulting Treasurer of South Dakota is supposed to be Located 'Squire Overton Tkinks He Can

Find the Man.

Everyone will remember the account the defalcation of South Dakota's Treasurer. \V. VV. Taylor, formerly of I Lalayettc, and which appeared in the pa purs over the country three weeks ago. Taylor has a father residing near

CRAW FORDS VILLE, INDIANA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 2i 1895,

Lafayette, and also some relatives near Alamo, and naturally he was suspected of having conn: this way with the cold cash amounting to more than .00.000.

In fact his description including his picture was forwarded the police together with a reward S-.00O for his capture. 'Squire I.(J. Overton. Justice of the Peace. now conies forth with the sensational declaration that he can locate the man desired, and further states that he is confined to bed with a serious illness Nothing more definite could be learned through him as he was very eager in pursuit of the .$2,000 reward. Overton claim? that his information regarding the absconder's whereabouts was obtained through a combination of cir cnmstances lies' known to him more than that it was throng the gravest accident. He was approached by news paper men. but was "dead to tInworld" on th" information so i^jif for

All day Friday he was a most popular man in the .say of being run after. lie left for Lafayeeteat noon yesterday and it was thought that the man would be placed under arrest iasiu. jiit. but such svas not accomplished and not having seen Mr. Overton since we are unable to give our readers the result of Ins trip. Taylor ssill surely be caught whether it be in New York, Indiana or Rockville. It is very doubtful as to whether he has paid this State a visit in his hoste am? sve are compelled to credit our latest ^notoriety to a false alarm.

.Mlkr Slid Through* .Mike O'Neal, of the quart shop, was acquitted by the court on Thursday morning of the charge of selling liquor to a minor. The evidence showed that a lad named Waiker had, upon the command of his ma, purchased the foaming while she waited svithout for him and therefore it svas the mother svhr» bought the beer. .. ...

POUND TO BE TRUE.

Investigations Prove the Assertions Made by A Crawfordsville Business Man A Word in His Behalf.

Listen a moment: "Here is somethine that I want yon all to hear. O.uher your chairs up and pay close attention whi.e 1 reait you this article in THK RI VIKW and by that time supper wili be ready. In Crawfordsville, our county seat there resides a man, who owns his home and an active profitable business as well. Now there is nothing strange about that for there are many such men in that city who are in the same conditions, yet there is something about this particular man that enlists public notice. For a number of years he has carried on a boot and shoe business in Crawfordsville and has enjoyed a tirst class trade. During this time his health has heyan to fail and he i8 compelled to dispose of his immense stock in order to recuperate. Ho lately began to advertise a cost sale of all his

to the letter E"°ds, but as so many such sales have

to of

been advertised but very little confidence svas placed in it by persons other than his regular customers. However all suspicions are now knocked into a cockrd hat as an investigation has revealed. The sale svas found to be strictly as advertised and not a man, svoman or child can help but discover tho same by merely pricing his goods. The man in question is J. S. Kelly, the Mam -treet boot and shoe man and as an evidei.ee of the publics appreciation of such sale as the one ho is nosv holding, his store is crowded svith great If and "umbers of customers daily. Children we II all go down tomorrow and buy splinter new fool svare of Mr. Kelly.:

The I.HtcM l-"nd.

A i.ew scheme originated by residents of the "Star city" is as follows and may bo introduced here: "Trinity church has adopted a new plan to increaso the size of its already great congregations, and next Sunday this plan will be put ou trial. Pastor King announced yesterday morning that there were many mothers svho would like to come to church once in a while, but cannot cause they have infaut children to take care of and because they cannot, as sensible women, take tho little screechproviders to church. Now Trinity has thought of a way to obviate this unfortunate condition to a certain extent, and has appointed three ladies, Mrs. Simler,

Mrs. Keiper and Mrs. King, to take care of all babies brought to the chape' of tho church next Sunday. These ladies svill have charge of the little ones for an hour, during which time tho mothers may sit out in front and enjoy the sermon, the music and other people's clothes. In the Sunday school room the committee svill play tag and sing lullabies for the infants, preventing in every svay possible the first approach of rivalry to tho singing in the front part of the church. This iB an admirable idea, and will prove a great blessing to the infant troubled mothers who want to go to church." What a superb thought. That would be, too good for any UEe. The world is advancing every day.

Loaf the Case.

Hie case of Jake Freel against the trustees of tin public schools svas tried this week before Judge Raub and was brought to a terminus on Wednesday before the jury could take the matter in hand. Paul A-. Bruner, the attomes f.^r the defence begged that the jury be instructed to find for the tie fense on the grounds that no responsibility rested on a school corporation tor the neglect of those under its employ. Judge Raub then called the case to a hault and excused the jury it will not end there however but will be carried to the Supreme court for final action.

This was the second trial and both times

was the plaintff defeated. The damages asked by Fred were for &r),000 for the loss of a leg caused by falling oil' a ladder while a work at the center school building sometime ago, injuring him in such a manner that amputation was neccessary.

It I.onk* in Though War was Inevitable. Our Short Horse scribe caps the climax this sveek by challenging the Possums (.5lory pencil pusher to a duel also giviiig him tho choice of weapons. We looked for this soma tune ago but not until nosv has the disgraceful affair made itself emminent. What Air. Rhodes svill do in the matter sve cannot say, but suppose that he will accept the challenge. Both men are natives of Kentucky and svill put up a tierce battle should they be unfortunate enough to come together. We trust no blood svill be shed.

Tlic Liidnmii Nocin! Club.

Ladoga has a social club known as the "A 1 Hanibra," which is composed of seventeen of our neighbors best young men, They have lately rented the room formerly occupied by thu Leader und have placed therein elegant furnishings until it now closely resembles a palace. Frequent receptions are given svhereby their lady friends are permit ted to temporarily take possession of their quarters and transform the same into unlimited mirth, The boys are a jolly crowd and know how to spend the dull hours advantageously.

In the Brazil Court on Tuesdsy the old Midland railway company svas restricted from crossing the Big Four at Carbon, lnd., on the grounds of having violated a contract made svith the latter company for such a purpoae. The order granted tho Big Four by the court svas only temporary and the Midland svill likely come out of the big end of the horn yet. The day svill come svhen Providence will cast both optics on her and she will make them all bite the duBt.

l,ul»'«r Scurcc. No less than a dozen persons have approached us this sveek in their endeavor to sight STork of some kind and no less than that 6ame number was turned asvay unsatisfied. Not a man among them was in the least an indolent person or one whom a person could not trust, but to the contrary all were worthy and deserving of employment yet they were unable to find any. We trust that the spring may tind theiu all occupied.
