Wants a Divorce.

Last Monday Mrs. Mattie E. Stephenson instituted divorce proceedings against her husband, Ira B. Stephenson. The couple were married in '86 and separated in '88. She says her husband is a worthless scamp who abandoned her cause. She therefore asks the care and custody of the child, and the restoration of her maiden name, Mattie E. Harper.

La9t Saturday evening Rev. A. B. Cunningham entertained his large Sunday school class of young ladies. The evening was most pleasantly and enjoyably passed by all present. During the evening the mandolin club tendered the class a delightful seranade and being invited in helped to pass away the time until the hour of twelve.

Anew firm has been formed in this city. It is composed of It. S. Thomson and O. C. Irwin, and their shingle will read contractors and builders of electric light plants.

Death of Robert Oarson.

Robert Carson, aged 71 years, died Saturday evening at his room at the Hartley house, on south Washington treat. Ho had been a sufferer from Bright's disease fpr some time. The funeral occurred Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. G. P.Fuson. Mr. Carson was unmarried bitt has relatives living in the country. Of l^te years he has been in no business, but once owned a grocery here and amassed considerable property. He was a quiet, unobtrusive citizen and had the esteem of all who knew him.

A Lady Miller.

The miller's daughter has become almost an historical character but we seldom hear of the miller's wife. For all that she is occasionally strictly in it and Crawfordsville has a miller's wife who is a miller, or rather a milleress, herself. J. W. McKeen in addition to being a practical miller is also one of the best mill-wrights in this vrt of the country. His services are in coi

ant demand and

accordingly he is awaj rom home most of the home. During absence the business at the mill is conducted by Mrs. McKeen who superi rants the work to perfection, she being a splendid miller. At 8 o'clock in the morning she assumed control and oversees everything until evening. The flour turned out under her supervision is most excellent and when Mr. McKeen is away from home he knows the business is moving on smoothly as though he himself was present.

SHOT THE THIEF.

William Evans, of New Koss, Fatally Wounds a Horse Thief. Special to 11io Journal.

NEW ROSS. Sept. 18.—Last evening N well dressed stranger alighted from the Midland local at this place. He gave liis name as J. .T. Lincham and began to wander aimlessly about the streets. He acted in a very peculiar manner, as though suffering "from mental aborration and stated that he wished to go to Danville, Ills. About 8:30 o'clock William Evans arrived in town with his road cart, and hitching it proceeded up town to transact somo business. When no one was observing him, Rhineham untied the liorse and driving around the town and started rapidly in the direction of Indianapolis. When Evans returned a few minutes later he missed the horse and at once gavo tho alarm. A party of men was organized at onco and started in pursuit. Mr. Evans and Dr. Bronaugh, coroner of Montgomery county, got on a hot trail and when a short distance above Lizton they met the thief coming back toward New Ross. He seemed unmindful of his surroundings and when Mr. Evans leaping from the buggy seized the bits of the stolen horse, Rhinelinn persisted in driving on. Seeing that he would be unable to hold him Mr. Evans hastily drew his revolver and fired point blank at to thief's head. The bullet entered the corner of his left eye and ranging downward found lodgment somewhere in the head. Rhinehan fell from the cart as if dead and lay senseless by the roadside. Mr. Evans and Dr.Bronaugh put him in tl cart and drove back with him to Lizton where they and a local surgeon examined his wound. They pronounced his wound fatal and death only a question of hours. Messrs. Evans and Bronaugh with their party returned here this morning. They had consulted tho prosecuting attorney of Hendricks county and he would havo nothing to do with Mr. Evans.

The liorse thief who was shot in the eye by Wm. Evans, of New Ross, night before last and whoso death was expected all day displayed unusual nerve on Friday night. He lay in the hotel at Lizton apparently sinking with a 38 calibre ball in his head. When the night passenger train west bound stopped at the station the thief suddenly arose and staggered out of the hotel and onto the street. The constable refused to arrest the man and'he boarded the train and was carried on west. Reinhan, the wounded man, stated that his home is in Indianapolis and that he has a family there.

John Linehan, the man whom Wm. Evans shot near New Ross for stealing his horse and who arising from what appeared to be his death bed to board a midnight train, is now in jail having been captured in Indianapolis. He Bays that he was out of his head when he took the horse and that his good character can be proved by hundreds of people in Indianapolis where he lives. Linehan appears to be a very good sort of a man and makes a neat end gentlemanly appearance. He has retained Johnson & Johnson as his attorneys

WASHED THEIR FEET

The Dunkards Hold Their Semi-Annual Meeting for the Washing of Pedal Extremities.

There was a mammoth Dunkard feet washing last week at the Dunkard church, six miles south of the city. There were over one thousand persons present and over 150 took part in tho beautiful and impressive service. The audience room of the church had been cleared of benches and was occupied by eleven tables. These were loaded down with good thing.? and at the appointed hour tho members of tho church marched in and sat down about fourteen to each table. The mon sat at tables to themselves and the women at others. The women all wore caps made of some white gauzy material and which set off '••heir native beauty to good advantage. When all was in readiness the man or

v,oman

at the head of the table arose

and tied about his waist a long white apron. Then picking up a small foot tub full of water he knelt before the person next to him at the table and proceeded to wash his feet in a thorough and satisfactory manner. He would then dry them with tho towel and the washed person arising would don the apron ard taking up the tub of water proceed to treat his next neighbor as he had been done by. No talk was indulged in during the ceremony and neither was the water changed, but as nearly all the people had washed their feet before coming the water was not very dirty when the last man had received the holy bath. When all were washed grace was said, a song sung and all went to eating in a most hearty manner. The guests were all treated to a good square meal in the basement and all went merrily along. For genuine heartiness, impressiveness, beauty, simplicity and good food commend us to a Dunkard feet washing.

THE GALLANT TENTH.

That afternoon a reception was held at tho Y. M. C. A armory and au address of wolcome delivered by Mayor Carr, to which comrade B. F. Allen, of Frankfort, fittingly responded. After this tho now band escorted tho visitors to the college campus where tho time was passed visiting tho museum and other points of interest.

All those eight hundred chairs in tho Y. M. C.A.auditorium were tilled Friday night by tho membeiT of the 10th regiment and their friends who eamo to listen to good old fashioned camp fire. After music by the band, which by the way is winning golden opinions on all sides. Comrade John Laurino mado everybody feol in a good liumor by singing a song about General Maneon and his soldiers. Rev. G. W. Switzer offored a prayer and the band played again. J. W. Ramsey, our groat five minute talkor then spoke. A male quartette sang "Tonting on Tho Old Camp Ground" and then Gilbert Gray, president of the mooting, announced that on account of General Manson not feeling well Gen. Lew Wallace would take their old command or's placo on the programme. Gen. Wallace in his very first sentence raised a storm of applause by saying that the very presence of Gen. Manson was an inspiration to him.

(lE.N'UHAL MANSON.

Recitations were givon by two littlo girls, Mamie Edwards and Toodie Hurt. Mr. and Miss Sanders, of Waynotown' sang "The Old Camp Kettle," and O. Travis made a short address. After recitation by Miss Lulu Hunt soveral old comrades favored the audience. Judge E. G. Snyder delivered one of his Bill Nye addresses, Elisha Littlo, of Warren county, read a poem describing the experience of an old soldier who had three sons killed in the war, and Jim Price, of Clinton county, recited apiece iu his inimitable way. The programme was so varied that time glided swifty away and no one got tired.

On Saturday tho old veterans mot in a body at the armory and marched to martial music out to the home of Gen eral Manson. The General received them cordially and passed around tho cigars. A photographer then took a picture of the soldiers as they were I grouped about the home of their old commander and the regiment then repaired to tho armory again for the transaction of business.

The visitors began lo leavo by tho afternoon trains for their homes and but very few now remain in tho city. There were about 150 to register and tho rounion was a success in every particular

It has been glorious timo for tho Bnrvivors of this famous regiment which stands so high on the immortal scroll of the nation's defenders. The Tenth Indiana was organized for a three year's service at Indianapolis on September, 18, 18G1, and was mustered out on July 25, 1865. Immediately after organization it was sent to Kentucky and Tennesoe and participated in such engagements as Mills Springs, the Seige oi* Corinth and Chickamauga. It marched with Sherman to Atlanta, fighting all the weary way. The regiment has a glorious record behind it and itsJreunionB are always attended with the greatest interest.

A Dunkard College.

There is said to be a movement on foot among the Dunkards of Indiana to establish a college in this State and not only in this State but in this county. The Dunkards are very powerful in the south part of Montgomery and at the late soup festival there were present representatives from every Dunkard community in the State. The talk is at present to purchase a desirable piece of property in Ladoca and then establish an institution of learning.

THIEVES OAJfTURED.

A Ooupie of Oircus Men Lodged in Jail For Robbing Holmes Saloon.1 Sunday morning a couplo of circus men had an olovating tight in front of low nsloy's music storo. Tho smaller or tho mon attracted oonsidorablo attention as he was gloriously drunk, had a wounded hand tied up in a handkerchief and carried his coat ovor his arm. Whon tho fight was over tho mon wont north on Green street. At noon Terry IJolmoB when on his way home from church opened tho door of his saloon, and was Btartled whon these two worthies rushed out and past him. Entering the saloon ho found the money drawor robbed of $11, several pints of whisky gone and also a pair of shoes. These latter belonged to George McClure, whom Marshal Ens..linger sportively designates as "The' Sunday Clerk." The thioves had left behind them a coat, however,and from a letter in it the fact was ascertained that the owners name was W. H. Donnelly, and that he was a trapeze porformor in the oirens. The thieves kept low during the day, but at night they wore captured on the court house corner by officers Brothers, Ensminger and Connors. One of the men was wearing the stolen shoes, so there was no getting around the question of their guilt.
