Au Unlucky Horseshoe.

Tuesday as little Zack Mahorney, the son of Alex Mahorney was trudging gaily homeward through the snow in the sportive innocence of youth he throw a snow ball at Jim Morgan, the Park House drayman. It hnppened to strike the savage fellow who instantly turned and recklessly hurled a horseshoe at the child. It struck him just back of the ear knocking him to the ground unconscious. Blood poured copiously and mrny who witnessed the «ct at first thought the child was killed but he soon rallied and was taken to his home on College street on a sled. While badly hurt his injuries are not dangerous. Morgan was invested but as Mr. Mahorney refused to prosecute he was released and will probably go scot-free.

The Okahumpkian.

Harrie Pontious is in receipt of a sample copy of the Okahumpkian, a newsy independent paper published at Okahumpka, Florida. The paper has juRt started under the most favorable auspices and Sam W Irwin, of this city, is one of the publishers.

A Tougher Lot.

Copt. McOlaskty states that the present gun? incarcerated in the jail is the toughest which lias beou there since his administration began. There are three chicken thiivts, a murderer, three prize fighters, bandit Charley Roberts and one or two other thugs of lesser note.

The Oontract Tlehyered. A. Goodwin cme over from Indianapolis on Monday and delivered the oontract for the removal of the hub and spoke factory to this city. A call fur 25 per cent of the stock subscribed for the Land and Improvement company is made to help pay the expenses.

Will Ship Ice.

Wm. Martin & Son nave about given up hopes of being able to cut any more ice this peason and the supply is still short. There are now about 1,000 tons in the house and about thirty cars or 600 tone of fine lake ice will be shipped down from the northern regions next week to help oat the supply for the coming season.

For Shooting Quails-

Irwin Buchanan and Eph Miers have been arrested on a grat,d jury indict ments for shooting quails after the law proteoting the birds began t© be observed again. Both deny the charge and say that while they were hunting rabbits in front of Levi Martin's place a oovey of quails got up nn 1 this led to the charge. They gave bond for $50 for their appearance at the next term of court. ',

Private Opinion Made Public. Thomas E. Bowles: I have no patience with these prize fighters and trust that they will every one be prosecuted to the full extent of tho law. 1 think this great lazy Cory is responsible for the greater part of late disgraceful affairs in Montgomery county, and I have no heBitency iu saying that if a good short horn calf had been born in his place old Montgomery would have been much better ofl- to-day,

Wants An Inventory Taken. Last week the retiring Superin tondent of the county asylum, George Myers, in company with Capt. G. R. Brown made a little call on Mike Price. Mr. Myers demanded that as he was now retiring that the county commissioners make a complete iuventory of the property which he leaves behind. Mr. Prioe fiually consented to the demand and the inventory will be made next Monday. The meeting between Messrs. Myers and Price was polite but not cordial.

He Goes Forth-

Nat Goforth, one of the juvenile Ladoga chicken thieves, appeared before Judge Snyder and pleaded guilty to the charge.' The judge decided to send him to the reformatory until he became of legal age, and so ordered Young Gofcrth pleaded liis own case and after the crowd dispersed approached the court and said: "Say, inister, just let me go wont you? If you will I'll never hook even a pin again. Say just let me go wont you?" At this time the lad broke into loud lamentations and was hustled back to jul. His two companions will shortly come to trial and will probably receive the same treatment.

Ojmplains of J!aike Price.

William Zaohary has been discharged from his position of road superintendent on the John Line gravel road Mrs, Ztichary called at THE JOURNAL ollice ou Saturday and stated that her lius^ band had been turned off by Mike Price. His work was always thorough so JUike gave for his excuse that as Mrs. Zachary had done the washing for the poor farm, that she and her husband had made enough off the county. Mrs. Zachary washes every Monday and is paid either iu meat or else fifty cents for each wasi ing all of which are large. The pay has been dearly earned and Mrs. Zachary complains bitterly of Price's action. Sho lays some very grave charges at his door, and pictures him as any thing but a good character.

ORAWFORDSVLLLE, INDIANA, SATURDAY, MARCH 7,1891 NI:MBEH 10

He Knocked Out Mat HainesA good story is related of llev. Dr. Post, of Jacksonville, iils., who lectured at Center church on Sunday evening. Ho was in college at the same time with Rev. M. L. Haines, of Indianapolis, and at a time wheu athletics were on tho boom. Mr. Haines

waB

the champion boxes of the college and nothing delighted him more than to get hold of some unsuspecting victim and "do him up." Mr. Post, new Btudent, was duly ushered into the awful presence one day and induced for a pastime to put on the gloves with Mat Haines, who "was just learning." Nothing loath young Post did as requested and before he knew what was tho matter he lay on his back from a well directed blow on the nose. He immediately doffed the gloves aud quietly retired. But the affair was not ended for Post at once went into regular training and put himself under the tutelage of a skilled pugilist. His training was heroic and kept as still as death. Some three months after the first little encounter champion Haines was surprised to witness the whilom victim appear upon the bloody sandB end astonished wheu he oonsented to "put on the gloves Grinning a ghastly grin the chumpion cracked his heels together and prepared to chew up his man in the most approved style.

Joyously he bounded toward his prey chuckling with glee. The erstwhile victim made a finntand catching Haines off his guaid planted a terrific blow on his nose which literally lifted him off his feet and landed him several feet away. Mr. Haines did not come up when time was called and Post, though couquerer, forsook the manly art then and there.

Another Jrugilist Oaged-

On Saturday "Friday" Clark was up betimes and for a social call upon Ed Cory and Chueky Fell meandered down to the jail. Copt. MoClaskey did not have the honor of his acquaintance and admitted him into the tearful presence of his distinguished guests. A sad interview followed and Mr. Clark withdrew and retired to Skid Galey's saloon to refresn the inner man and drive dull care away. Unfortunately however, officer Brothers, who has been carrying a warrant for his arrest since Monday, agreeable to a indictment returned by the grand jury against him for seconding a prize fighter, saw him leave the jail. When Mr. Brothers entered the saloon and gathered Friday in it is safe to say a more surprised youu $ man never drew breath. He imagined that he was perfeotly safe until the next grand jury Bhould investigate his New

Richmond escapade and by that time he expected to be working in other fields of labor. He is now repining in limbo under 8300 and will probably stay there until the present show goes off and the grass has grown enough to make good grazing.

The Fayerweather Will.

The New York Tribune of i('ob. 2(3 presents the Fayerweather will in full or more properly speaking the deed of gilt of the three executors as residuary legatees under the will. The list of items is quite long but it embraces the follow ing which will be of interest to the friends of Wabash College: "Wabash College $50,000 in addition to the amount given by the will." The sum named in the will was $50,000, so that the amount Wabash will receive is #100,000. This sum muht be used for some distinctive purposes—erection of buildings, establishment of scholarships. No disposal will be made ol the fund until the trustees meet next June. It is t'ue general impression, however, that probably half of the bum will be devoted to tho erection of a beautiful chapel named in honor of the college's benefactor. Several of the professors have expressed this wish and belief and it is not unreasonable to suppose that the project will be consummated.

,} Tiun the Ross on JerryThe iubject of the paper at the Ouiatenon last week being reciprocity in the talk that proceeded tho story was told about Jerry Simpson receiving in Washington a call from a ludy who was rude enough to ask her to see for herself whether it was true that he did not wear socks. "Madam," replied Jeremiah, gravely, "I believe in reciprocity. If you wear socks and will show me yours, I will show you mine." This was Judge Thomas' opportunity. Said he: "She ought to havo turned the on him."

Franklin Township Again Indulging In An Educational Kacket of Large Proportions.

Franklin township is tho center just at present of a bitter school war which has only just started, so tho aggressors state. Some time siuoe charges wore prefered by the patrons of one of tho schoolB against Wm. T. Wright the teacher. Finally the case came to trial before Trustee Owsley and iu tho presence of Supt. Zuok. A number of witnesses testified that Wright could not manage the school, that vile and obscone conduct on tho part of certain pupils had not been punished, and that Mr. Wright's metLods of instruction iu nowise ooiucided with their views. Dr, Owaley having heard the evidence dismissed Mr. Wright, who at onoe took au appeal to Supt. Zuok. For tho past two weeks the Superintendent's ollice has been a literal battle field, upou which two angered factions contended for the mastery. Mr. Zuok finally announoed that he tvould render his decision Satur day evening and at the appointed hour a large crowd assemoled to hoar what it would be. The Superintendent lea rod his throat aud announced that Mr.

Wright's appeal was sustained and that he should oontiuue to weild the gad in Franklin township. The opposing faction wont wild and all sorts of throats were indulged in. One influential man stated that ho was in possession of facts which if divulged would cause tho arrest of Zuok, and further expressed his intention of divulging them. It was a dire sight and tho end is not yet as the defeated pui'ty loudly proclaims.

The row in Franklin township over the reinstatement of W. P. Wright in his school still continues to assume proportions. The patroDs who stand arrajed against the teacher have employed Johnston & Johnston to carry the matter to the State Superintendent and endeavor to persuade him to overrule Zuok's decision. William Lyuch threatens to have Zuok arrested. Ho claims tuat Zuck took the evidenoe in the original trial before Owsley and afterwards wilfully destroyed the same, thus rendering hinuelf oriminally liable Zuck iB getting angry too and au interesting scrap may be looked for.

Uohoon-Whitaker-

Thursday, Feb. 26, at 1.30 o'clock -floss Cohoon was united in nlarriage to Miss Laura Whitaker at the home of the bridVs mother, corner of Franklin and Elm streets. Rev. G. W. Switzer performed tho ceremony in his most happy manner in the presence a number of invited guests. A large number of suitable and hanlsome presents were delivered and all present united in ex tending their congratulations to the bride and groom who left immediately after thy ceremony for Indianapolis. They returned to tho city to-day and will go to house keeping at once on south Green street. The whole community ox ton da congratulations to the happy couple, both of whom are well known and highly esteemed by our citizens. Mrs. Cohoon is a most estimable young lady, accomplished and possessed of many noble traits of character. She is in every respect worthy her newly made husband. Mr. Cohoon is one of our most enterprising and prominent business men and is honored aud respected by a large circle of friends. The match is a most felicitous one and that they may lead long, happy and prosperous

Judge Everett Postpones His Decision iu the Doherty Oase Until Next Term. On Friday Attorneys Crano and Olodfoltor made a trip to Lafayette. Judge Everett had sent word that ho WIIB ready to give his decision on the suit to set aside tho conveyance of real estate by Fisher Doherty to Mat Doherty. It was expected that the oourt would rule for tho defendant and when he started it seemed that ho would. Mr. Crane, however, oalled his attention to several glaring errors ho had made in reviewing evidence and thereupon the court baoKed down aud announced that ho would make no decision until next term. At that time further arguments will be heard and tho case bo ultimately decided. The case is a very complicated one and has caused Judge Everett to do some lively head scratching.
