Hiring the Roller.

The city has hired out the road roller for use for 30 days for 8100 to J. A. Foster, of Attica. This monumental piece of foolishness—tho roller—the purchase of which brought about by a corrupt council, will rarely be of any benefit to the city, and if it could b»i sold for one-half its first cost the city would be the gainer by it.

PRESSED BRICK COMPANY.

A New Organization to Engage In

the Manufacture.

[he manufacture of pressed brick begun two or three ysars ago at the yards north of the river did not prove a paying investment, although the bricks turned out were of good quality generally and gave satisfaction. A new company has taken hold of the works, men better skilled in the work employed, and all the necessary machinery purchased for making bricks in large quantities and of tho best material, '1 he following directors and oflicers have been chosen:

W. E, Nicholson, A. E. Reynoldp, W. F. llulet, I[. R. Tineley, lien Mverp, 13. F. Orabbe, Win, Martin. A. F. Ramsey.

From these the following officers were elected for the first year: President—A. F. Ramsey.

Vice President—A, E. Reynolds. Treasurer—P. C. Soraerville. Secretary—\V. F. llulet.

He Needs the Job.

Ihe republican ring of Crawfordsville has not for pome years had any use for Dice. lie is a thorough republican,but that made no difference, they slighted him all the same. He Bought to be a delegate to the McKinley national convention, but his aspirations were soon knocked out. Charles N. Williams defeated him. Dice, however, has been wanting a job. He probably needs itHe is reported to have come to this county when his term as reporter of the Supreme Court expired with the sum of over 810,000 to his credit in bank and in other valuable property. lie has not, if reports are correct, got anywhere near that i!»uount now, and an office might help him. The Enquirer correspondent from Washington says: "Frank M. Dice, of Crawfordsville, who is generally believed to be slated for one of the auditorships, is supposed to b° a protege of Col. Perry S. Heath.

While he has been endorsed formerly by some of the Indiana delegation, his strongest "pull"' is believed to be the part he took for McKinley in the Indiana State convention. Col. Ileath and Mr. Dice were very close to each other during that struggle between the Harrison and McKinley men."

Coates College Insolvent.

Coates College, the Presbyterian female school, at Terre Haute, made an assignment Monday to S. M. Reynolds. Prior to the assignment all its real estate, valued at 840,000, was deeded to W. R. McKeen, who held mortgages against it for that amount. The school has been run at a loss for years and has gradually accumulated an indebtedness of 858,000 which Mr. McKeen cleared away last year, taking the mortgage in. stead. He offered to let the mortgage stand without interest as long as other debts were promptly met, but this proved impracticable. A number of suits on accounts were tiled last week-i which precipitated the assignment.

superintendent to

succeed J. S. Z-»k, the present, incumbent, will l,e eleett) .Monday week. Ol the eight or nine applicants for the position, all republicans. Ward Walkup, of Walnut township, would seem to have the inside track, this of course depending on the support of the democratic trustees of whom there are five. There will be no democratic teacher to be a candidate, and of course some republican mtiFt be chosen. The vote of Minnick, the republican trustee of Walnut township, who is tirm for Walkup, by the aid of tho live demoera ic trustees will secure the plum for Walkup without further contention.

Many Suicides.

There have been five cases of suicide in Clinton county within that many weeks. The last one was on Monday when a young fool, madly infatuated with a young girl who failed to reciprocate his affections, shot himself. His name was John H. Harlan, twenty.eight years old, who was found at 9 o'clock last Monday night lying at the roadside, three and one half miles northeast of Frankfort, in front of the home of Strauder Devault, with a bullet hole in his temple, put there by a twenty-two caliber revolver. When William Finley and George Taylor discovered the body there were signs of life. Tho dead man was a Bon of Joel W. Harlac, a justice of the peace of Frankfort. The cause given for this rash act iB disappointment in a love affair, the object of his infatuation being the daughter of

Mr. Devault, in front of whose house he killed himself.

No Settlement Yet.

Although the commissioners and ex treasurer John Ilutton met on Tuesday, nothing definite was decided upon or determined. Mr. Ilutton now claims through experts employed by him that there is yet over 8500 due him from the county after allowing all charges that the county claims ia due it from him. It would seem that about all the way out of it is a suit in court which would Eettlo the matter of which party is in debt to the other, and it is possible that this may bo institufed soon.
