Alonzo's cash had g-one to make fatter the exchequer of the liveryman but still his best girl called for more. lie made an engagementto take her buggy riding-the Sunday following- the theft and like a true knight he would have kept that engagement had not he been plucked by unrelenting officers.

Deputy l". S. Marshal Grant Agnew came over from Indianapolis Fr-day and arrested Jake Sprow, the Wabash avenue blacksmith for misusing the I'nited States mails. It is charged that on February "J3 Jake wrote a letter to Mrs. II. 1). Neisdadt in which he made sundry decorated statements. In the choice language of the brothel he accused Mrs. Neistadt of all sorts of indiscretions and ailments. The letter was a filthy and abusive one and at its end Sprow signed his name. Mrs. Neistadt promptly sent it in to the postottice department and the arrest to-day is chapter two. Jake was taken before Commissioner Van lluren at Indianapolis that afternoon and bound over to await the action of the federal grand jury which will meet about next Mav.

Death of II. C. Wheeler.

Horace C. Wheeler died on Tuesday, March 20, at his home in Lebanon. He was an old resident of Montgomery county, and has many relatives-and friends to mourn his death. The following is from the Lebanon Patriot:

The death of Horace C. Wheeler, a well-known and highly respected citizen of Lebanon, occurred at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Charles W. Johnson. at o'clock Tuesday evening, March 20. atThorntown. lie had been feeble for several years on account of repeated strokes of paralysis. Mr. Wheeler has made his home with his daughter, Mrs. Dr. Scull, of this city, but had been visiting Mrs. .Johnson for about three weeks when he was taken suddenly worse. The funeral services were held on Wednesday afternoon, at the Presbyterian church, at Lebanon, conducted by Rev. J. A. Pollock, assisted by Rev. Hanta and the pastors of the several churches of the city.

Horace C. Wheeler was born in Ohio, August 4, 1823 came to Indiana and settled in Montgomery county in 183,r, and on February 4, 184(i, lie married Miss Martha A. Dunn, a daughter of Nathaniel A. Dunn, of Crawfordsville. To them were born five children: Mrs. Elizabeth S. Hamilton, wife of Rev. S. L. Hamilton of Louisville. Ky. Mrs. Emma A. Johnson, wife of Charles W. Johnson, of Thorntown: Mrs. Alice A. Scull, wife of Dr. D. C. Scull, of Lebanon Miss Mary E. Wheeler, of Denver. Col.: and Charles L. Wheeler, of Wichita, Kansas. His wife and children all survive him. He has been a resident of Lebanon sincc, 1803, coming here from Darlington. As a Christian, he never wavered. In his early youth he became a member of the Presbyterian church, of which, for many years, he was an active elder. He was an earnest, conscientious church worker, doing- what he could for the Master.

A Cemetery How.

There is a healthy cemetery row on hands at Darlington. Some time ago the Odd Fellows passed a measure to make an addition to their cemetery on the side nearest town and two acres were accordingly added. Not nearly all the Odd Fellows favored the plan and there was a decided sentiment in the town against it. An ordinance was passed forbidding it and the law cited to the effect that it was unlawful to establish a cemetery within one mile of any city or town. The managers of the ajlair went ahead, however, and platted the ground. Yesterday an attempt was made to have an interment in the addition but it was prevented by threats of an injunction. Considerable bitter feeling has been engendered by the difficulty.

Tou^li on Tramps.

All the tramps who strike the town are promptly arrested, taken to the. jail and vaccinnated. Thus far about twenty-five have been put through the process to their horror and disgust. They wail and kick outrageously but all to no effect, and when a dirty fellow gets particularly g-ay or obstreperous he is vaccinnated in two or three places for good measure. Last week a couple of tramp printers, giving the names of Frank Hrennan and Joe Adams were put through. They claimed to have worked on the Indianapolis Journal and to be intimate friends of Charley Casad. Even this failed to touch the stony heart of Dr. Chambers, who quickly gouged great chunks of flesh from their arms and inserted the virus.

For Truntee of Brown.

Last Saturday the Republicans of Urown township met and nominated a candidate for township trustee. There were three names before the convention: C. A. Klieser, Samuel McNutt and M. L. liutcher. Mr. Klieser was elected on the second ballot, receiving 117 votes out of about two hundred. He is an excellent and eapablc man and his nomination affords the greatest satisfaction throughout the township.

THE POOR BRIDE.

Sln» IK YUIIUIMI I 'p llcforc tho Clrrmt Court by ll«»r lldt'iil Irs* Iv\-11 tisbaud.

The very roniant.ii: marriage of J. W. Stone, of Iowa, and Mrs. Rose Nixon had quite a thrilling sequel. Last Friday afternoon Harry Nixon, the exhusband of Mrs. Stone, came before the circuit court with a very hilarious job all fixed up to.spoil the honeymoon. He stated that he was the father of Master Freeman Nixon, the five-year-old result of his domestic infelicity with Rosa. He averred that she and her new husband were about to remove said result from the jurisdiction of the court and he didn't propose to stand it. He had a habeas corpus writ issued and Sheriff Davis went out and took Master Freeman into custody in spite of the frantic efforts of the young gentleman to bite off his knee caps. This morning Mrs. Stone and her mother and Mr. Nixon all went before Judge Harney and fixed things up. It was agreed that Mr. and Mrs. Stone should not take Master Freeman away but should leave him with his grandparents, W. P. Daggett and wife, who have cared for him for the last two years anyhow. So little Freeman got cheated out of taking part in his mother's bridal trip to wild and wooly

Iowa.

Kor Commissioner, First District. John Peterson, of Sugar Creek township, is announced in to-day's JOURNA i. as a candidate for renomination for the office of Commissioner from the First district before the Republican convention to be held on Saturday, June 2. Mr. Peterson is now serving his second term as Commissioner and therefore has had large experience in conducting the public business. His administration has been characterized by a painstaking conservatism and a careful management of county affairs. In other words he has sought to manage the people's business just as he has managed his own during his long and sue cessl'ul career. He is one of the most substantial citizens of the county, is one. of the heaviest tax-payers himself, and therefore has great interests in the most economical methods. He is popular with everybody and his nomination is equivalent to an election, as was proven at the last election.

Fee and Salary I.aw Decisions. Interest in the fee and salary law under which State and county officers in Indiana are serving is revived by the decisions of circuit court judges that the act is unconstitutional. Judge Gillette, of the Lake circuit court, has held the act to be invalid as it it concerns county auditors, treasurers and recorders. Judge Wiley, of the lienton circuit court, has rendered a similar opinion, and ii is expected that another circuit court, in the State will make a third decision next week to the same effect. The case from the Lake circuit court has been appealed to the Supreme Court. 'I'lie attorneys will ask this week that the court advance the cause and give it an early heaiuig.

llal 11 IH reunion Cut.

Jesse T. Rush, of New Market, who was a soldier in the 40th Indiana Regiment, and a pensioner at §:.'( a month by reason of disability, has been made a victim of the Hoke Smith policy and had his stipend cut to 817 a month. Mr. Rush's disabilities are so great that he. made an application for an increase and instead of getting an increase he got a decrease.

The i. A. lJ. I '.iii'ainpment.

Never in the history of the State of Indiana has there been such an immense gathering of the people as will be at the State Encampment. of the G. A. Ii.. April -tt.h and Mil at Lafayette, Ind. The preparations are all on a grand scale. The triumph arch at headquarters, corner Fifth and Main streets, will eclipse in Ix-auty and grandeur anything that has ever been attempted in this State. It will extend from curl) to curb, in form semicircle, twenty-five feet high. The words on it will be: "Welcome G. A. Ii. Welcome."

On the top of it is a shield on which are 13 stars and IS lights in blue representing the 13 original States. On the same shield are 34 white and 31 red lights. This arch is the same on both sides and has a grand total of 425 electrict lights in all. This is the work of Mr. J. S. Hill, the gentlemanly and popular superintendent of the electric street railway company, who furnish this light gratuitously.

It will be in position and lighted the nights of April 3, 1 and 5. The court house will be also decorated as neTer before—bunting, Hags and evergreen* in great profusion.

II o\v Mart Kernoodle L)icl.

The Clarlisville, Ark., Herald. speaking of the assassination of Mart Keruoodle, late of this city, says:

There are many conflicting re porta in regard to the difficulty, and it is dillicult to get at the matter. From the best information it seems that about noon on Saturday, Rogers and Kernoodle had a few words in the barber shop about something that took place at a dance the previous night, that Rogers passed out of the shop remarking as he went that any one whe said anything about him was a d—n rascal. When he liad gone Kernoodle remarked that he would have to swallow that or he would cut his throat from ear to ear with a razor. Some one reported this threat to Rogers,who immediately went home, armed himself and returned to the shop. lie called Kernoodle out in front of the shop, and, after passing a few words.

Kernoodle. some say, struck Rogers: others .-.ay lie did not. At any rate, t.hey c'inched. and while in this posture Rogers drew a pistol, punched it against, the breast of his adversary and Herd. Kernoodle turned and ran into the shop, and as he'Went in Rogers fired a second shot into his back. He fell and expired in a few seconds, both balls having gone entirely through his body. Kernoodle was quite a fleshy man, and while waiting for a train Sunday night the body was found to be so decomposed that it was considered impracticable to ship it, and Kernoodle was buried about midnight on Sunday night.
