Death of James Vancleave. James Vancleave, one of the best known characters of the fcounty, was found dead in bis roomj" in the Miller block, on Market street, last Saturday nnming. He retired] Friday night about midnight iu bi9*|usual.*2health. Saturday morningjhe failed to arise aa usual, atd about noon Mrs. Billmao, who has charge of the rooms, became apprehensive and getting a step-ladder she looked over the transom into his room and saw him lying on the floor, bhe summoned Officer O'Neill who forced open the door and found Vancleave to be quite dead. He was dressed in his underclotheB, and had either fallen out ot' bad or had attempted to arise and fallen in the effort. Death had evidently been instantaneous. Sheriff Canine took charge of the remains until (Joroner Ball could be summoned. After the inquest the Coroner's verdict was to the effect that the deceased's death was caused by heart failure. James Vancleave, or "Jim," as he was familiarly known, was about fifty years of age. He was born and raised in this county, and was Jthe son of the late Jesse Vancleave, a pioueer of Brown township. The deceased was quite prominent in local politics and was at one time a deputy sheriff^ under the lata Alex Harper.

The remains were taken to New Market on Sunday from which place the funeral occurred on Monday.

After the Machines.

The slot machine war is on at Shelby vil'e. W. T. Groom, of the Christian church, on last Sunday turned} himself loose, and there was a general shaking of the earth. He accused the ^better element of being in sympathy with violation of law, men who are willing to permit crime in one place and crv for its suppression in another quarter. He says there are a number of church deacons in Shelbyville whoj slip about under cover and hunt for toddy. He advised the business men to take the slot machines from their counters and thus set the pace for the "tenderloin." The sermon created a sensation, and developments are looked for.

Death of Jed Snyder.

After a painful illness of nearly four years Jeremiah Snyder, Jr., died at the home of his parents ou west Main street last Friday night. He was 33 years of age and was born and raised in this county. He was a young man of sterling character and until stricken with the fatal illness he led an active, industrious life that was full of promise. He was a patient sufferer and never complained of his condition but accepted it with Christian fortitude. The funeral occurred from the family home Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. H. L. Davis officiating. Interment at Oak Hill.

Great is Gas.

The colder the weather the lees gdB— but the money has been paid and the promise made not to quarrel with the company, eo what can a fellow do but grin and bear it, wrap up his stove in buffalo robes to keep it warm, with his family on the front porch warming by a pile of icicles. The people will probably lay in a supply of wood and coal next winter, and cease freezing. There ought to be some way to make a corporation give value received to its patrons, but nowadays the corporation rules the roost.

In Honor of Santford Gray. The Horse Thief Detective Companies intend to erect a fine monument over the grave of John Santford Gray-, the originator of the Horse Company organization. Each company will donate to purchase it. At a meeting of tne Covington company Saturday, they voted to donate $25 toward it. Uncle Rant Gray wag a good man deserving such a tribute to his beloved memory. Veedersburg News.

Ed. Hayes in Trouble.

Ed. Hayes, a Crawfordsviile boy, is in trouble in Indianapolis. The News of Monday says: "Edward Hayes, custodian and door keeper at English's Opera House, who is under arrest on tie charge of grand larceny, waived examination in the police court today, and was sent to the grand jury. The friends of Hayes say he is the victim of circumstances. He was handed a brooch that had been picked up in the theater several days ago, and put it in hiB pocket without examining it. When asked if he had received the brooch, he aaid he had not. Later, when told that the janitress had handed it to him, he remembered the circumstance, but could not find the pin. It was reported to the theater management that Mrs. Will E. English had lost the pin which was set witb a diamond, and this led to Hayes's arrest.'" No one in this city believes Ed Hayes guilty of any wrongdoing. While a resident here his reputation was above reproach and his friends feel satisfied that there is a great mistake somewhere.

Fair Directors fleeting.

The regular monthly meeting of the fair directors was held in the small court room last Saturday morning and considerable business was transacted. The secretary was voted a salary of $175 the treasurer, 150 the chairman of the fair ground committee $22 and the superintendent of privileges $25.

Stockholders were requested to present their certificates to the secretary and receive their passes.

J. J. Insley was continued as super" intendent of the Bpeed ring and authorized to use $3,000 for purses.

A committee composed of M. B. Waugh, W. F. Hulet, J. L. Davis, J. J. Insley and J. C. Hutton was selected to revise the premium liet. Sam Shafer was appointed assistant marshal.

Still After the Lynchers. Another anti-lynching bill is before the House, Senator Drummond, of Marshal county, is the father of it. The bill provides that the Govenor shall have power to declare vacant the office of sheriff in any county where a lynching occurs, and that the bondsmen of tfce deposed sheriff shall be held responsible to the family of the lynchers' victim for damages. This is more drastic in its provisions than the defeated bill. It is hardly,likely that the bill will become a law. Itj is too tough in its provisions and under it the sheriff's office would go begging for an occupant There have been lynchings iny Indiana and elsewhere when the shriff was unable to help himself.

The New Review.

The Crawfordsviile REVIEW came out as "THE NEW REVIEW" last week, and presented a handsome appearance. It was full of intereresting news matter and well displayed advertising. The ownership of the paper has changed, Mr. Luse having sold his interest to E. A* Cunningham. Will Ilenkel.still retains his interest, and is the senior partner in the firm, lie is an able and experienced newspaper man. We are not acquainted with Mr. Cunningham, but those who know him speak in terms of praise concerning him. The Leader extends to THE NEW REVIEW its best wishes.—Ladoga Leader.

W. D. Jones has been appointed administrator of the estate^of Wm. H. Keeney, deceased.

Kind Words From an Old Friend. The .Tribune regrets the retirement of Fleming T. Luse from the CRAWPORDS•ILLE REVIEW. Not that the new editors and proprietors are unworthy successors, but we naturally feel that one who has been BO long identified with the editorial fraternity should continue in it as long as possible. Mr. Luse has been our fellow Democratic editor for some fourteen years, and during that time we have had occasional passages at arms as to party policy and other subjects, but we can say with absolute truth that he has conducted his side of the debate with singular good nature and with marked ability. It is a curious fact that in all this time we have never met him. save throughjthe columns of TheRnview. Mr. A, B. Cunningham and Mr. W. E. Henkle aie old friends of The Tribune editor. When they were employed on the "Parke County Signal," in 1880, the writer was local editor of the Tribune under J. H. lieadle. They are men of considerable newsp ,per experience, and have our best wishes

for

success in THE

REVIEW.—Rockville Tribune.

Anti-Trust Law.

Indications points to fact that the Republican legislature will effectually bar the door against an law aimed at the trusts and combines. The antitrust law pissed by tne 1 ist session w«s a farce, so much so that no attempt was ever made to enforce it. The Republicans did not put anything in their platform about trusts in 1898, and hence re chived the aid, moral and financial, of those things. The prop 3 pd new anti trust law is being fought tooth and nail. It provides that, articles upon which priceB are fixed by a trust be prohibited aale. and counted contraband in this State. Of course it will be knocked out. The Kepublican party cannot aff .rd to smite the trusts, for they are sources of profit about election time.

A Terminal Elevator. 0:

Crabbs & Reynolds, of this city, are interested in a company which is preparing to build a large terminal elevator at Michigan City and to ship giain east independently of Chicago. They have already purchased dock room and the enterprise is one of great pripcrtions. It is of especial interest hereabouts as the plan will save great expense in shipping east®, and will thus enable the grain men interested to pay the farmer a higher price for his product. CrabbB & Reynolds state that it will mean a good deal of mocey in the pockets of the Montgomery county farmers.—Journal.

"Foremost" Is Right.

Will II. Eltzroth, representing THE NEW REVIEW, gave us a pleasant call yesterday. Mr. Eltzroth states that the daily edition of THE NEW REVIEW, will make its appearance about Feb. 20. The weekly ndition will be swelled to 12 pages and it will undoubtedly be the foremost Democratic paper in Montgomery county—New Richmond Enterprise.

With Push and Vim.

Fleming T. Luse has sold the Crawfordsviile REVIEW to A. B. Cunningham, Ernest A. Cunningham and William E. Henkle, who are now in possession of plant. The new proprietors are starting out with push and vim and are editing a paper which the citizens of that locality cannot help but appreciate. —Peru Morning News.

A New Agent.

Mr. Will Lofland is now one of THE NEW REVIEW'S new agents. Mr. Lofland will make a thorough| canvass ot Franklin and Sugar Creek townships in the interest of this'gpaper, and any favors shown him will be duly appreciated by the management of the paper.

Midland Ry. Management. R. C. Conklin is now general manager of the Chicago & Southeastern Railroad succeeding Harry Crawford, who becomes Vice President of the concern. Conklin comes from Decatur, 111., and is said to be what the C. & S. E. needs, an experienced railroad man.

Death of Jacob Schenck. Jacob Schenck died at the home of his son-iu law, O. W. Bratton, eight miles south-east of the city, last Friday night at tne age of G9 years. The funeral occurred.3 Sunday at Finley Chapel.

Death of James Rooney. James Rooney, an old settler, died at hi6 home near Cherry Grove last Saturday at the age of 74 years. The funeral occurred from St. Bernard's church Monday. Interment at Calvary cemetery.

Perry county nas developed a magic healer in the person of oue Peter Weidon. He cures everything from headache to small pox by "laying on of hands." There are hundreds of the superstitious flocking to the faker for healing.

The Curfew.

The RoukvilleTribune opposes the passage of the curfew law by that town. It admits the evil which the ordinance ia designed to remedy, but opposes the law on the ground that it is a relic of feudalism, and an abridgement of the "natural and malienablo right of a man to go and from his own dooryaro whenever he sees fit to do so." It argues that if children annoy the public there is a way provided by which such annoyance may be stoppod, but the State has no riifht to put a ban upon those who are not guilty and perhaps never will be and that a muncipality has no right to interfere with matters belongingentirely to the realm of family gover iment.

Tramps to be Vaccinated. TLe county commissioners at a special' meeting discupsed small pox in all its different phases. The Board recommended that all the school children be vaccinated at the expense of the parents. Dr. Barcus thought that the greatest danger to this city lay with the tramps passing through. So the Board gave the doctor authority and power to vaccinated every "weary Willie" who comes to town, the county to pay for the virus* So the doctor will put a patent clotheW pin on his nose and get down to bus* iness.

Judicial Changes.

The proposition to make one judicial circuit of Boone and Hendricks counties is stirring up the natives of both Lebanon and Danville. They declare it shall not be, while the Hendricks representative, Mr. Barlow, a smug and happy re-' former, declares that it shall be so. So far, Mr. Barlow has been successful in his moves but no one can see the end* The passage of the law would leave Mr McCormuk, the newly elected prosecutor of Hendricks, and Mr. Cofer, the appointee to succeed Judge Hadly out of a job. Hence the roar.

A Red Hot Paper.

The Crawfordsviile Review has been sold by Fleming T. Luse to Rev. A. Cunningham, E. A. Cunningham and Wm. E. Henkle, who are now in full pos&ession of the plant, and they aver that in their continuence of TIIE REVIEW, which is now in its 58th year of existence, that the paper will be a strictly 'd-hot democratic sheet. The new firm's first issue under the heading of "THE NEW REVIEW" came out last Saturday.—-Waynetown Dispatch.
