A social sensation from Ladoga became a matter of court record Tuesday afternoon when Andrew E (.juilliatns filed a damage suit for 52,000 against Mareellus Pope, a society gull of Ladoga. Mr. Quilliams' complaint is a touching one and if established will doubtless touch Mareellus for the sum stipulated. Quilliams sets forth that he and his wife were living as happily together as a couple of pigeons, when in January last the defendant put a mean job on them l'ope it is alleged looked with longing eyes on the charms of Mrs. Quilliams and cast about for means to secure her separation from her husband. He accordingly proposed to them that in return for his board and lodging, they come and live in his house. They could have it rent free, along with the use of the furniture, the garden, the cow and a lot of the chattels the plaintiff can't recollect in his present harrowed state of mind. This was such a dead easy thing that the Quil liams grabbed at it eagerly throwing up a $200 contract with other parties

Soon after they took up their abode in the Pope mansion Mrs. Quilliams was taken sick and during this time while the plaintiff was away the defendant would tell the false stories of the plaintiff's perfidy and neglect. Not only did he do this but he made it a point to go to the plaintiff's mother-in law and her friends and tell similar stories, adding that the plaintiff treated his wife ii a most cruel and inhuman manner. All this he did hoping to secure a separation of Quilliams and his wife. And he was successful for Mrs. Quilliams' relatives and friends went to Quilliams and advised him to skip at once for parts unknown, de claring that a party of men had been organized to take him out at night and hang him. Terrified by these rev elations Quilliams ran off and remained away some days. Finally, however having had time to reflect and being braced by a consciousness of innocency he returned to Ladoga and going to

Pope's house demanded to see his wife Pope and Mrs. Quilliams' mother re fused this and the plaintiff was 6ub jected to great insult, humiliation and mental agony. His wife was true to him, he alleges, but her mother forced her to silence. The complaint seems to set up a rather sensational state of facts and when the case comes to trial it will likely attract considerable at tention.

Grand Fair Circuit Meeting The secretaries of the Grand Fai Circuit of Indiana met here Wednesday There were present representatives of the Lafayette, Lebanon, Sheridan Bainbridge and Boswell fairs. The secretaries of the Covington and one or two other fairs in the district were unavoidably absent so no definite action was taken.

A special from Washington says: Congressman Landis lias been receiving a large number of applications for appointments as cadet at the Naval Aeademv, fie says there will be no vacancy in his district until June, lS'Jii.

Congressman Landis received a protest from one of his constituents this week concerning the appointment of a postmaster in his district. It read: "Why did you appoint postmaster here? Nobody can read his writin', and he can't read nobody else's."

One of tha most interesting characters in the new House is "Buck" Hin richsen, of the Sixteenth Illinois district, former chairman of the Illinois Democratic committee. His name became quite familiar in the last campaign, aud he is an object of interest to all the people who visit the Capitol. Congressman Landis was introduced to him a few days ago. The Indiana member seemed surprised when it was suggested to him that Mr. Hinrichsen was his colleague.

From what State do you hail, Mr. Hinrichsen?" inquired Mr. Landis. "Illinois," was the reply. "Are you 'liuck' and Mr. LandiB hesitated and blushed as if he had made a mistake. "Yes, I'm 'Buck' the leopard can not change his spots, even by coming to Congress," said the fat politician from Illinois, laughing heartily.

The two Representatives at onco became good friends and Mr. Hinrichsen began giving the young Indiana member some fatherly advice on how to deal with patronage. Mr. Hinrichsen has something of a reputation as an orator in his State, although by pro fession he is an editor. But he has de cided, he says, to make no speeches during his first term in Congress. He deems it more discreet to keep silent during his first term.

Johnson Clore is having liis immense room on south Washington street, formerly occupied by Horace Kings's wholesale grocery, transformed by the use of paint and plaster and will join it to his present store by an arch. When these improvements are completed, which will be about May 1, he will move his stock of dry goods into the big room and rent the remaining space in both rooms to those who wish to conduct other lines of business, thus making a department store to all intents and purposes except that it will not be owned by one man. The new enterprise will be watched with interest

A Surprise Dinner.

A few of the comrades, together with many friends and neighbors moved in a body to the home of Jonathan Rice, of Possum Ridge, Thursday, March 25th. W. J. Miles and wife preceded the crowd in order to allay suspicion aud to decoy Mr. Rice away from the house. This gave ample opportunity for everyone to hide the vehicles, carry in the baskets and get warm. The ladies with Mrs. Rice,who had been apprised of the plan,proceeded at once to arrange the table, which was of the regulation size and strength. At 11 o'clock the "surveying" party returned. Nothing unusual attracted the attention of the deceived brother until he opened the kitchen door, when the table and many laughing faces told that for once he was really captured.

After the dinner, which all present will remember as a "feast of good things," a short programme was tarried out, consisting of good music and short talks by comrades and neighbors. A number of war incidents were related, both humorous and pathetic. Comrade and Mrs. Rice both responded, thanking all present for their krndly remembrance. All departed feeling that the day had been pleasantly spent. As Mr. and Mrs. Rice leave the neighborhood, where they have lived so long they carry with them the wellwishes of a host of friends. They will spend the summer at Kankakee, after which they will permanently reside at Franklin, Ind.

Lebanon Reporter: H. C. Moore, one of the stockholders in the "Shades of Death," the Montgomery county summer resort, called upon Nicholas Bennett to-day and asked him to submit a bid for the management of the place this season. The stockholders want to lease it entire for a cash consideration, but if this cannot be done they will hire someone to run it. Mr. Bennett declined to lease the place but signified his willingness to run it for a reasonable compensation. Mr. Moore left with the promise to confer* with him further about the matter.
