Disappointed in Love Oscar McNeely

Seeks Peace in Death.

Oscar McNeely lives in Indianapolis but for some time past has been visiting the Hosier family in Highland. Oscar hadn't been here long however until he fell a victim to the pretty charms and blandishments of a certain Athenian belle. Things seemed to run along smoothly enough until a few days ago when the young lady in question grew suddenly tired of Oecnr's attentions and told him he could no longer be her "bunch of cherries." The blow almost killed Oscar and he concluded to get even with her by killing himself. Consequently Tuesday morning the young man found a soft spot in the hay of the

Hosier barn and after drinking several ounces of chloroform layecl down to die. When discovered he was unconscious. A physician was quickly summoned and only by the hardest, kind of work sucji'i'ih in resuscitating him. He's sorry n.».v l..j di 1 it and .sweiirs he will never irv it again.

WAR INTELLIGENCE.

Preparations For The Contest Still Going On.

About 2.500 men with vast quantities of munitions of war were shipped to Admiral Dewey at Manilla last week. They will arrive at their destination near Juno 20th. Other troops are to be Eeril soon, and it is the intention to retain the Philippine Islands until peace is declared. Manilla is blockaded tightly. The insurgents on the islands are kint: i. »nrm lor the Spaniards, and frt-queiit- engagements are reported.

This week interest seems to center over the positions of Admiral Schley in the vicinity of the harbor near Santiago. It WUB reported that he with his squadron was engaged in aiming to destroy the fortifications over looking the harbor nounted with cannors and guarded by Spanish soldiers. Reports had it that a number of Spaniards had been killed and the forts destroyed, also that some oi the Americans vessels had been injured. Reports are so contradictory that it is difficult to Ki.ow what to consider authentic, aud the reader of war intelligence is compelled to wait a fewdays for the affirmation or contradiction of most of the reports now daily sent over the wires Troops are already being sent by many ships to the island of Cuba, aud within a few days intelligence of bloody encounters between the con'ending foica will be announced.

One regiment of Indiana soldiers has been sent to 'lampa, Fla., to ernbarke for Cuba, while the remaing Indiana soldiers stili remain in camp at Chick--unbuga.

A BOOM FOR CAPT. ALLEN.

Comrade Cheadie Violently Opposed

by Several Democratic Papers!

A special from Frankfort says: "A congressional boom is being worked up fur Capt. David F. Allen, of this city, now at Chickamauga with hiscommand, and there is a probability that he will be the democratic nominee in this dis trict. The Lebanon Pioneer is openly supporting Captain Allen, and the Delphi Times, which is violently opposed to "Comrade" Cheadie, also favors Allen. Williard Morris, chairman of the district committee, is similarly disposed, and it is said that the convention will not be called until Allen's nomination is assured. Clinton. Fountain and Montgomery counties, however, through their respecive conventions, nave de clared in favor of Cheadie, and three weeks ago apparently he was assurred of the race. Another paper violently opposing [Cheadie is the Tipton Tim°s, which is largely respoi sible for the disaffection now apparent everywhere."'

Thn statement that Montgomery county has instructed for Cheadie is untrue. It is a well known fact that a majority of the county's delegates are anti-Cheadle men, and will not support him under any circumstances. Tbis is particularly true of the Union township delQgates,of whom there are seven. Only one of this number will support Cheadie at the convention.

Death of C. L. Ganine.

CorneliuB L. Canine died at hia home two miles north-west of Waveland, Wednesday night at the age of 72 years. Mr. Canine was one of the county's pio neer citizens, and was held iu the highest esteem by all. He was a life-long democrat and was at all times alert to his party's interests. He was a man of splendid character, kind, gentle and charitable, a man who made friends and retained them. His death was a sad blow to the community, and the bereaved family has the sympathy of all in their bereavement. The funeral occurred at Old Union Baptist church Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'cloek, Rev. Moffett officiating.

W. C. Stewart bad a horse ruined this week in a lot in the east part of town by the animal getting into a barbed wire fence.

UGLY PUQS.

Ed Cory and Jack Lyons Meet and

the Latter Is Vanquished.

Late Saturday afternoon the quiet tip went forth to a select few that a lively "mill" was to take place in the dead hours of nigtt between Ed Cory, the Indiana fighter, who has been working in this city for the past three months as a plasterer, and one Jack Lyons, "touted" as a scrapper from Pennsylvania, but whom those on the inside knew to hail from Marion.

Between the hourB of 11 o'clock Saturday eveoing, and 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, hacks, carriages, cabs and buggies began appearing on the streets, and they all drove in various directions, but a man stationed west of town would havd thought a basket meeeing or a picnic was in progress south of the city, for strangely enough every one of these wandering rigs in the course of time headed south on the Thorntown gravel road.

The procession kept steadily on until the Boone county line "vas crcssed, and the rippling waters of Sugar creek, on whoso banks many a bloody battle had been fought in the past, were reached. There at the foot of the hill under the friendly shade of the trees at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the ring was pitched.

It was 3 o'clock in the afternoon when Cory and Lyons stepped into the ring to do battle for S47 GO, and the applause of 200 "sports" gathered from Cliuton, Montgomery and Boone counties, and who surged around the ropes calling for the battle to begin. The two fighters were apparently well matched, and the first two rounds were decidedly favorable to the Marion man, but in the third, fourth and fifth, Cory made a chopping block out of him, claret flowed freely, vicious lunges and drives which should have satisfied the lou lest of the sports, came in rapid order, and the victory of Cory was =o decisive in the fifth and last round that the referee gave bim the fight to tho general satisfaction of the crowd which returned here at 7 o'clock yesterday evening. Lyons maintained that he injured the bone in his right arm in the second round, and is again anxious to get on another bout with Corv.— Frankfort News..

The isSth's Mascot.

"Murphy," the mascot of the One Hundred and Fifty-eighth Indiana is a brindle bulldog of unknown pedigree and doubtful antecedents, but he is a native of the Hoosier state and therefore eligible to adoption into the One Hur dred and Fifty-eighth. He was inducted into tho military service at the state camp weeks ago, so he is probably the ranking mascot of Camp Thomas.

IIis immediate guardian and foster parent in the regiment set about inculcating in Murphy a proper spirit of patriotism and hatred of the Spanish colors by industriously "sicking" him at yellow cloth. He was rewarded in time by having Murphy soon learn to distinguish the color and tear it to pieces wherever he saw it. All this went very well at the state camp, where Murphy came into contact with infantry officers, but down here there is every arm of service represented, and Murphy almost brought his career to an inglorious end by uemonstrating his patriotic hatred of the Spanish color. He made an unfortunate choice, however, picking out for the object of his attack the yellow striped legB of a cavalry officer, and it took the influence of the entire One Hundred Fifty-eighth to save the mascot.—Chattanooga cor. Chicago Chronicle.
