Till Knights ol'Sl. Joint.

One of the most pleasing things on last week's teunion program, one that called forth expressions of admiration from the hundreds of witnesses, and 0110 that will bo talked about most flatteringly for many months, was tho splendid drill given by the Knights of St. John, of Crawtorilsville. The company is a lino looking body of- men, each every inch a soldier in appearand). Their tnanly bearing attracts attention from the moment they form in line, and when they btgin to execute the difiieuit movements of tho drill, tho one who 6ees them is astonished to know that such precision, such harmony of motion can bo attained oven by many days of practice. Tho Knights of St. John have made many friends hero not O'dy by their excellont drill, tho equal of which has never been seen on our streets, but also by their gentlemanly conduct during their entire stay.—Ladoga Leader.

From Da villo he went to Evansvillo, whoro I10 became superintendent or the public schools at c'2,500 a year.

Should the Man Bribed Go Back

011 His Contract--The Case from

Gibson County is Affirmed hy the

Appellate Court- A Blow at Cor

ruption.

Mark Hanna's millions will not he of much use in Indiana under a decision

of the appellate court handed down yes- 3rd. al 7:30 p. m. tenia). The use of money in earn-

paigns for tho purpose of inllufncniir

voters will practically be ilore away with, as the person unscrupu ons enough to sell his vote can accept a proposition and then turn around am! sue for and recover the statutory limitation, £300, from tho man who attempts to debauch tho ballot by purchasing his vote.

Those who handle the money will be very careful not to pay 8300 for voters as they would be very expensive at tins price.

The dr-cisior, of the appellate court, as written by Judge Ross, was given in the case of Charles 'I hompson vs. tho State on the part of John McKinney. The case was sent from Knox to Gibson county on a chango of venue and there tried, and an appeal was taken to the appellato court, whero it waB held that AlcKinney had right of action against Thompson for attempted purchase of his vote, notwithstanding that I10 had voted and then brought suit. Tho defense in the case attempted toprovo that Thompson was not liable, as McKinney had voted. The parties to the suit live in Vincennes and the complaint stated that in the presidential election of 1S91 Thompson attempted to influence Mc. Kinney to vote for tho republican candidates and offered him 65 to do fo, or, if not to vote for tho republican Candida tep, to remain away from the polls. McKinney accepted tho 35 and went to the polls and voted, and then sued Thompson to recover £300.

In the opinion handed down by the court it was held that when one hires a man to vote a certain way or hires him to refrain from voting the person offering the bribe becomes liablo to the penalty set forth in the statutes, and the question of tho agreement, it was held, does not enter into tho case. The lower court bel! this, and also held that. AlcKinney had the right of action against I hompson. Tho appellate court sustained the opinion of the lower court in the following language: "When tho appellant gave the relator ?-r to refrain from voting, and tho latter accepted tho. money agreeing not to cast his vote, tho hiring was completed, the appellant fmE filled his part of the contract, tho stat ute was violated and tho right of action accrued."'

I r\V!t!-('miiilcll. Promptly at 8 o'clock Wednesday evening at the home of the brido on south Green street Dr. Samuel G. Irwin and Aliss Edna Campbell wore united in tho holy bonds of matrimony, Rev. S. 11. Creighton, of the Christian church performing the ceremony, which was very impressive. Tho brido was dressed iu a white satin dross trimmed with pearl beads and presented a charming appearance. After tho ceremony the couple led tho way to tho dining room which was beautifully and artistically decorated with smilax, where a sumptuous wedding supper was served to a largo number of invited guests.

Dr. Samuel G. Irwin is a man of excellont qualities, honest and upright and a physician who ranks amongst tho best in the State, and is well known. MisB Campbell has for a number of years been a school teacher, and there •vero few better, boing very intellectual with a good disposition. Dr. and A1rs. S. G. Irwin start to housekeeping at tho homo of the latter, where they are at homo to their many friends. Wo wish them success.

They claim there nover wero any candidates assessed such amounts, and do in.' understand what they want with so much money, unless it is to buy votes or for tho benefit of some individuals. It is said tht the republicans have commenced to uso money now.
