BEWARE OF IMITATIONS.

H00S1ER SHIP CANAL.

Prof. Campbell, of Wabash College, Has An Embryo Scheme.

Indianapolis Journal: A tall, slender man, with keen blue eyes and a stubby gray beard,lounged about the corridors of the Denison Hotel Christmas morning. fie was Prof. John L. Campbell, of Wabash College. Professor Campbell for years has been interested in the geodetic survey of Indiana. He conceived the plan of removing the Momence rock from the Kankakee river, and successfully accomplished the task. He is familiar with every curve of the Kankakee channel, and knows every foot of the marsh land lying in the northern part of the State Four or five years ago the Professor startled his friends by a proposition to furnish the city of Chicago with water from the Kankakee river, but the scheme is yet in embryo. Prof. Camp bell is now nursing the hobby of a ship canal through Indiana. He believes it is only a question of a few years when ocean steamers will be plying between the seaboard and the great lakes, and expects to witness the sight of an ocean schooner plowing its way through the Hoosier State. "The demand for a ship canal through In :.iana grows greater every day," said the Professor. "Other States are agitating the question, and Ohio is preparing to get an appropriation through Congress for the purpose. I have talked to Governor Matthews about it, and he is highly in favor of the plan. I think that a ship canal through Indiana should follow the course of othe old Erie canal, which touched Huntington on the north and Vincennes on the south. There is no reason why the Indiana farmer should not load his grain on board an ocean vessel right here at home. I have figured that a ship canal through the State would save the farmer 5 cents a bushel on his wheat alone. I think that in a few years a canal will be built from the Atlantic ocean west to the lakes, and Indiana should get the benefit of it. Of course it will require a great deal of money to get the movement through, and it would have to be done by Congress."

Professor Campbell's plan to furnish Kankakee water to the Chicago people is a novel one. He says that a line of pipe could be run from Baum's bridge in Porter county to Chicago, a distance of about sixty miles. He thinks that the Kankakee and its tributaries could furnish the city with an ample supply of pure water.

Somebody to Blame.

Judge Harney states that when he allowed Messrs. Anderson and Haywood 82,000 for prosecuting the Pettit case in the Supreme court that it was with the distinct understanding that Tippecane county had agreed to foot the bill. Mr. Haywood waited on Judge Harney and assured him that such was the case. The Tippecanoe county officials evidently proved recreant to a promise made Mr. Haywood.

Mr. Nicholson Reads.

On Saturday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Elizabeth Binford, Mr. Meredith Nicholson, of Indianapolis, entertained quite a large company by reading an admirably written paper entitled "Sappho and Her Sisters." The affair was for the benefit of the Episcopal church and netted a neat sum.

Evans and family, of Rising Sun, Jeff and Robert with families, Peter Stephens and wife, of Cason, and Mr. Stencil and family, of Shannondale.

ICY GETS THERE.

She Comes Off Victorious in the Salt Against Her.

It is no joke to remark that it is a cold day when Icy gets left. Naturally it would be a very cold day.

The trial of Miss Icy Alston, the piquant little birch wielder of Bristle Ridge, occupied all Saturday afternoon. Icy was charged with being too warm with Ota, the seven-year-old daughter of George Charters, having used Solomon's oil in undiluted condition on not only the back but also the face of the said Charter's child. Several witnesses took the stand and with their good right hands raised to heaven and their pants in their boots solemnly swore that they visited the Charters mansion several days after the "lickin" and saw the red marks on the child's face. It seems that the child's parents had inaugurated a sort of an Eden musee with the little girl as star attraction and that the whole neighborhood had flocked in and witnessed the show.

Miss Icy swore that if she struck the child in the face that it was wholly accidental.

The cause of the administering of punishment was set forth at some length. It seems that little Ota is a sort of a "Klep." She had developed a morbid penchant for the property of the other scholars and nailed everything in sight. Before Miss Icy took up the deadly gad little Ota had been detected in several rather shady transactions. In the artless simplicity of childhood she hooked a big "cookie," stuffed full of raisins and caraway seed, from the desk of an impotent neighbor and then made a foray on the apple supply of another. At the time of the whipping she had branched off into the confiscation of slate pencils and other amotions incident to the moulding of the plastic mind of youth.

The jury wrestled with the issue a short time and then returned a verdict for the defendant, vindicating her before the law.

There have been several teachers tried for whipping pupils in this county lately and they have almost invariably been acquitted. Montgomery county juries are ardent believers in the eternal efficacy of a good hickory gad.

Death of Charley E. Petticord. The death of little Charley which occurred Dec. 22, was the first link broken in the golden chain which united the happy family of Mr. and Mrs. John Petticord, of New Ross, Ind. Charley was an unusually bright little boy. Although not five years old he seemed to realize death was near and told his weeping parents he was going to heaven. Death is sad when it enters any home but it seems especially so when this sad messenger enters our home for the first time and bears some loved one away. Mr. and Mrs. Petticord have the sympathy of the entire community in this their greatest bereavement. We commend them to the Great Healer above who is now tenderly caring for their darling child and who will in the end grant them that everlasting pleasure of living with their loved boy again where parting wifl be no more. M. S. E.
