reference to tho Hoard of Commissioners declining loaceept the bid of Jamos M. Seller *a\ act as attorney for the county, which ho offered to do for the sum ami price of per annum. Mr. Seller did 1 not make this proposition out of tinfullness of a heart which ble 1 over the emaciated condition of the pockets of

Montgomery county taxpayers. Far from it. Mr. Seller put his wits to work to see if lie could cause a howl, and has succeeded. He proposed at tir&t. to do the work for nothing, but was informed by Mr. Ilurford that a contract without consideration was not binding, and perhaps lie hud better re-consider his intention. which he did and concluded that liifi services, considering the great, deep laid, political scheme was working, would realize him profit at $2 "i per year. He was tickled with the idea of becoming a Democratic Moses whose wisdom and plans would lead to victory, but the Commissioner* developed the fact that there were no Hies on them by gently dropping on Mr. Seller's little scheme, and it died, poor thing, while in infancy, and all his One work was lost. He did enough, however, to start the howl.

The facts the case are that Mr. Seller proposed to knife the Republican party through the Roard of Commissioners and they caught him at it. Now, instead of chuckles, we have sore shins

When Mr. Seller

and heai cries of pain. proposed to do the. work for the county for $2 per year, he was the attorney for John L. Goben and defending his suits with the county. He was also attorney for tho taxpayers of three gravel roads who were in litigation with the county over the re-assessment of their lands. These fat "takes" Mr. Seller did not propose to relinquish. There was money in them. His bill there, though it came out of the pockets of these taxpayers, in pity for whom his heart was bursting I they were compelled to pay £:5U» per year for an attorney to advise the Tioard and protect their interests. He would not let go his grip upon these individuals from whom he was pocketing a fat fee. to serve the suffering county. lie wanted to serve two masters. who were opposing elements and in thenature of such things one would necessarily suffer. Hence his proposition was declined and it was wisdoni on the part of the Board to decline

it. He had two axes to grind, one for 1m pally mill ti- for himself and 1"-

A MYSTERY.

HODV OF A WOMAN IM ICNKl) IN A KKEKJHT CAK,

it Murder or bulddfl Who She and Wlirre I)U1 She Come From

Quite a startling fitoiy comes to Tub

Jovhkal

by the way of a letter from a

well-known citizen of Wnynetowii. It borders on the mysterious and sensational and hence is of interest to everyone. The uien wu king on tho section of the L. B. \V. Railway west of Waynetown on their return from work Thursday evening reported that a freight ear of the box pattern, standing on a Bide truck about three miles east ol Covington, was discovered by the section men to be on lire. The smoke was rolling out of it in great volumes. They hurried at once to the spot and attempted to put out tho flame**. They weie horrttled to find in the ear the body of woman. The body was burned so horribly th"t it was impossible to recognize the leaturfW all clew to her identity was destroved. The case has about it considerable of the mysterious, and the circumstances would indicate murder as the car door was fastened on the outside.

The following additional particular we take from the Covington Fririul: "This morning when the passenger train from the cast, on the I., B. & "NV, wan passing Troy Siding, the conductor saw smoke issuing from a freight car standing on the sidetrack. He stopped the train to investigate the cur was fastened on the outside, and on opening it he was horrified »o find a young woman lying on the floor burned to a crisp. He called the section men to hisaid and upon fui thcr investigation the woman was recognized as Angle Howies, a. woman of loose character, who lived near

Covington for some years. The inside of the ear presented a rrible sight. There was a fire burning in the car twoholes weie burned through the lloor. From all appearances, the woman had entered the car and started lire, and then lay down by it and went to sleep. Her clothing caught lire, which awakened her she thon spiang up and tore her lothing oft her cloak lay in one*1 corner, and the floor of the car was co ered with shreds of burned clothing showing that the poor wretch made a desperate effort for her lib*. The body was burned almost, beyond recognition,

I her murder. A the had been kindled in the ear on some flat, rocks and had spread to some coinstalks and straw in the car.

The torn clothing showed that she had made a desperate resistance, but, was probably too bewildered and strangled by smoke to know what she was doing. The strange part of the heorv «1' suicide is the fact, that the car door was fastened on the outside. Another theoi is that the boys with her had kindled the lire for her comfort, and on going awav had closed the doors, intending to conic baclc^ and release leT. Kither theury is weak an the general opinion is that she was murdered. The authorities will hold all who are supposed to know anything about it until a thorough investigation is

made.
