Wabash College is located at Crawfordsville, Ind., the Athens of that State, and the home of Lew Wallace, Maurice Thompson and other literary celebrities. Secretary Gresham is an ex-student of the college and at present one of its trustees. The address of Capt. IS lack referred to a most interesting period, as the war almost closed the college. He and his brother. General lSlaclt, went to the front from Wabash College, and many other students under the command of General Lew Wallace. Members of the association were especially anxious to make the occasion pleasant to the venerable former president of the college. Rev. Joseph F. Tuttle. D. D.,wlio did so much to build it up from a struggling institution to one of the foremost colleges of the West. A hearty welcome was also given to his successor, Rev. George S. Burroughs, who recently came from Amherst.

Jteddinger Kouted.

The story of a one sided but bloody scrap is wafted from Whitesville by the soft and vernal breezes. A slight freight wreck occurred there the other day and among the spectators who flocked out was Pierce Reddinger, the neighborhood oracle, whose brains arc such a load that they have rendered him bow-legged. Pierce, whose popularity could be incorporated in a pint pop bottle, undertook to explain the cause of the wreck to the gasping throngs about and while demonstrating his theory came in contact with lid Long, of precious memory. Edward is a brakeman bold and soon was engaged in a violent controvesy with the rough and ready Reddinger. The whole thing ended in a fight. Reddinger was knocked out in less than two minutes and pounded almost to a jelly. When Long had finished him Reddinger was picked up by the neck and heels and tin-own into the ditch, from which he crawled like a drowned hop toad from aliorse pond. It is said that the neighborhood heartily endorsed the trouncing awarded Reddinger, who frequently announces that lie feels as big as a horse. lie felt about the size of a very diminutive member of the mule tribe after his escapade with the burly brakeman, however.

SMITH GETS NO RAKE-OFF.

Siipei'inteiKlciit Yories Talks About School Balance Mutter.

the

In commenting on the effect, which Tuesday's decision of the Supreme Court, holding that the statute requiring school officials to pay into the State treasury the unexpended balance of their school funds, will have upon the public •school system, State Superintendent Vories said Wednesday: •'The opposition to the law was natural and was confined entirely to sin element that profited very much by the old system. The trustees for many years have, as custodians of the funds, loaned the money in their keeping to loan associations and the like, receiving 8 per cent, interest or such a matter. which thev invariably pocketed The new law will prevent all that and will prove one of the best measures ever enacted. The report that Attorn-ey-general Smith receives a "rake-oft"' in handling the funds is entirely false, lis doesn't get one cent and the opponents of the statute raised that cry in order to build up their case."

The statement of Superintendent Vories is so much fudge. It is a well known fact that the law was conceived in the brain of Green Smith and solely for his benefit. Suppose it were true that the trustees did pro lit by the old system, which is extremely doubtful, is it not also true that the. State Treasurer will profit to a much larger extent by loaning the money by the same methods, which he invariably pockets?

THE A. P. LUSE ESTATE.

Row Over tlie Unpaid Bequests—Mrs. I'nderwooil Objects to Proposed Method*.

An associated press dispatch from Chicago sends out the following which will be read with interest in this city: "Lively litigation over the estate of Ananias P. Luse "is in prospect. All specific legacies and debts have been settled, and there now remains $21:s.000. The available property consists of stock in the American Type Founders' Company, which, owing to the uncertain financial condition, was sold at a sacrifice. The executors find themselves without sufficient means to comply with all requirements of the will, and it is proposed to pay bequests as far as the money will go. leaving the remaining bequests unpaid. Of the unpaid bequests is one of $50,000 to Aletliea 1L Luse, now Underwood. Aletliea Un derwood objects to this method of procedure, and will demand a pro rata division of the money.*'

the part of the

Republicans, the occasion being the presence of Hon. W. 1). Owen in the city, who delivered an address to a splendid audience at the court house. The Morton Club met at the small court room at 7 o'clock and headed by the band inarched to the Robbins llouse to escort the speaker. In numbers and enthusiasm the occasion equaled an ordinary campaign just before an election, livery seat in the large court room was occupied and many were compelled to stand. Mayor F. C. Handel, as President of the Morton Club, presided at the meeting and introduced the speaker, who for over an hour entertained the audience in a most happy effort, lie discussed the tariff question and presented it in such a way that a child could understand it. The enthusiastic applaust which punctuated his speech gave evidence that it was greatly appreciated and enjoyed. Mr. Owen litis a warn, place in the affections of a Crawfordsville audience as for several years he was the popular pastor of the Christian church. He is a candidate for

Secretary of State before the State convention and it will be difficult work to prevent the Montgomery delegation from easting tlieir twentysix votes for him when it comes to announce the vote in convention.

For Township Trustee.

William ISromley is announced in today's JouKNAi, as a candidate for Trustee of Union township before the Republican convention to be held June 2. Mr. ISromley has lived in this county since 1828, and for the last tliirty-five years has been a resident of this city. He is known for strict integrity and great probity of character, lie has gone in and out among the people here during all these, years only to be spoken of in the highest terms as a neighbor, a citizen and a Christian gentleman. Politically he is known as thorough-going and true-blue Republican, and has always been instant in season and out of season to say a good word and do efficient work for the Republican party. He served as postmaster from 'till to '(id and was removed by President Johnson because he refused to endorse "my policy." In 1882 he was elected Trustee and served one term being defeated by W. W. Morgan for re-election. His administration of the office was characterized by painstaking care and rugged honesty. No man is more deserving and should he be nominated he will run a swift race.

A Protest from Coal Creek. There is a State law against stock being allowed to run at large but about seven years ago the Montgomery county ISoard of Commissioners passed an order allowing milch cows and sheep to meander at will. This order was displeasing to many at the time and is now very objectionable in some parts of the county. A petition with over fifty names has been brought before the ISoard asking that the order be rescinded as far as Coal Creek is concerned. Two remonstrators against the petition also appear from Coal ('reek in the persons of tayless Alexander and Steve Ross. The ISoard will take

A well-known citizen and his wife were, called in by the. landlord, who stilted that a couple in his parlor were in "deep trouble." The citizen and his wife entered the room and were, considerably surprised to behold an old friend in the act of hugging a sorrowful lady of uncertain age. The, old friend is a prominent merchant of Jackville and as he is a married man his position was considered compromising to say the least.

Mr. Fullen opposes tiny action at till. He says the former ISoard never had a right to set aside a State law anil that the allowing of stock to run at large is as illegal now as it was before the permissive order of seven years ago was made.

ORATORY AND ATHLETICS.

The Slate Oratorical Content and Meets of the Several College Associations Friday at I lulianapolis.

The State oratorical contestoccnrreil at Indianapolis last Friday and l)ePauw won as usual. I. U. was awardsecond place as unusual. Mr. Travis, the representative of Wabash, acquitted himself excellently well but was not in with the judges so well as some of his competitors, although it was generally conceded that DePauw deserved the place she received. The Saitim'l, speaking of Mr. Travis, says:

Claude. Travis, of Wabash, spoke of tin "Hero of the Reformation." Luther was of course the subject, the orator making a bitter attack upon the Catholic church of Rome and portraying in strong l-nguage the massive intellect. iron wul and inflexible determination of the reformer.

The Indianapolis Jnurntil contains a synopsis of his oration together with those of the other orators.

The inter-collegiate athletic associations also met and arranged the schedules. The discussion over the base ball schedule, which was arunged, was but slight. With a few minor changes the schedule was adopted as follows:
