FRIDAY'. DECEMBER 30, 1898.

Presented a Cane.

Last Saturday Sheriff Canine was presented with a handsome gold headed cane by his deputies.

New Trial Kefused.

Last Saturday in the circuit court Judge West overruled the motion for a new trial in the Central Union telephone case and the defense took an appeal to the supreme court.

Warlike Neighbors.

James Henderson and Will Patton were arrested Saturday for fighting. The Henderson and Patton clans had some trouble about stray horses and they argued the question at issue with fists and clubs.

Bis irlrst Trip.

James Thompson, of Yountsville, went to Indianapolis Saturday. Apparently there isn't anything so remarkable in that but there is when it is considered that this is his first ride on the care. He is seventy-two years of age and never before rode behind a steam horse.

Salt Creek Bridge Repaired. The Monon passenger trains are now able to pass over the road again direct from Louisville to Chicago. The Salt Creek bridge was repaired last week, and a passenger train was the first train to go over the new structure. When this train reached the bridge last Thursday the bridge carpenters thought it not yet safe, and consequently the train was held two hours, finally proceeding about half past seven o'clock.

Collected by ISairil.

Lebanon Reporter: Baird Saltzgaber has shipped home to his mother, Mrs. Josie Saltzgaber, a fine collection of corals and shells obtained on the beach near Savannah, Ga. He shipped the collection just before his regiment sailed for Havana. The corals and specimens are very beautiful, being large and of varied design. The whole collection makes an exceedingly acceptable Christmas present and Mrs. Saltzgaber prizes it highly.

A New Trial Granted.

Judge A. W. White, of Rockville, was in the city last Friday and granted anew trial in the case of Hutton vs. Cunningham. The new trial was not granted because of any acknowledged error in the first trial but because the law provides that in cases where the title of real estate is involved the losing party can by furnish ing bond for costs demand and have a second trial of the cause. The plaintiffs in this case furnished the required bond and asked a rehearing.

Charley Worrail's Plan.

Bloomington World: Col. C. R. Worrall states that although the big Bloomington fair was a failure financially this year, another fair will be given the coming year under anew association. It will be entirely a horticultural or agricultural fair with no horse racing whatever, except probably a county race. Arrangements are now under headway and a meeting will be called soon to determine upon the matter. A representative farmer from each township in the county will be a member of the new association The gate receipts will be used in pay ing premiums on hogs, cattle, sheep etc. The buildings at the fair grounds are the property of Mr. McDaniel, of

Bedford, and they will be transferred to the new association for a special consideration. Ninety per cent, of the fairs over the state this year were fail ures, and already many announcements have been made that the fairs will be held again next year. Secreretary Kennedy, of the state fair, has announced that the state fair will be held at Indianapolis next year, although the association lost 810,000 thiB year.

For County Reform.

Wm. Dudley Foulke has prepared a bill on county reform for the legislature. This bill provides that the auditor of state shall prescribe a method of keeping accounts which shall be adopted in every county and thus have a uniform method throughout the state. The auditor, or a deputy, shall annually, and without notice, make a thorough examination of the books and accounts of each county in the state and 6ball report all illegal allowances or payments to the attorney general, the prosecuting attorney of the county in which they are found, and to the president of the advisory board of the county in which they are found. Refusal to give him access to the books and papers or to give him information is covered by a fine of from $100 to SI,000 and imprisonment from thirty days to one year. The oill further provides authority for the auditor of state to appoint one or two additional deputies for the extra work.

Mr. Foulke said in explanation that in Wyoming they have such a state examiner, who re^'ves a salary of S2.000 a year, but that his first year he saved to tbe different couaties SG0,000. He said that he was told that but one additional deputy would be needed in the auditor of state's cilice to attend to the increased work.

HERE ARE SOME NEW PRICES:

THE NEW MILITIA.

lMans to be Kea«ly Before January 1 Governor's Ideas.

Before the first of the new year the formation of a new Indiana National Guard will be far under way. There is'a provision of law that the initiatory steps toward the formation have to be taken before the first of the year, and Governor Mount is at work on the question, and within a short time will be ready to announce definite progress in the movement. The question of appointment of a brigadier-general will be settled. The place has already been offered to Nicholas R. Ruckle and James R. Ross, but both these men felt that other interests compelled them to decline thB honor. The governor feels that General McKee is probably the man for the place, but inasmuch as he is "tied up" in the federal service, he is ineligible for the appointment. The governor anticipates no trouble, however, in finding some one for the place.

Bids are being received from numerous firms for the equipment of the new troops, and the contract may be let before the first of the year, or early in January. Already word has been sent to the different congressional districts that each would be expected to furnish a company for the guard, but the cities which are to be called on for the companies are not yet known. The governor believes that there should oe an equal distribution of troops, and that one district should not ba allowed to furnish four or five companies, while other districts,which are anxious to furnish a part of the troops, should ba entirely left out of the call.

The three batteries which will compose the artillery division of the gaard are now thought to be known. They are Battery A, of Indianapolis the Dana battery, which failed to be mustered into the federal service, and the Attica battery, not an old organization, but one which has strength.

The governor has some new ideas regarding the formation of the new guard, and he expects, by the help of congress, to be able to see his hopes accomplished. He thinks that the troops should be well equipped, for the first thing, and that they should go into camp once each year, and while in camp they should be under regular army rule and should be made to conform to this rule. He does not believe that the food should be furnished to the troops by caterers, but that the new soldiers should learn how to draw and prepare their own government rations and live exclusively on them. He is also of the opinion that as soon as the state troops have been formed and properly equipped, they should be mustered into the federal service, and that thereby they would gain strength and learn greater descipline. Under this rule, he thinks, there would be less of the unpreparedness that was shown when the troops assembled last spring,

Will Take a ltest,

Walter Sparks, who has been suffering with ill health for some weeks, went to Cincinnati last Monday and will there sever his connection with the American tool works company.( The position Mr. Sparks has held is a tine one but is too hard and his health has been seriously impaired by traveling from one to two ihousand miles a week and never resting except on a 6leeper. He will rest awhile and will then take one of several oositions that have been offered him.

Notary Public.

Edgar Watts, the editor of the New Richmond Record, has been appointed notary public at that place. His bondsmen are E. T. McCrea and Geo. W. Washburn.

Death of an Infant.

The infant child of Mr, and Mre. Bert Benson died Saturday night at their home on Lafayette avenue.
