TRAGEDY AT NEW RICHMOND-

Conductor Smith, of the Clover teaf, Meets a Terrible Death Thursday.

Thursday at half past six o'clocka a distressing' accident occurred at New Richmond which resulted in the death of conductor E. Smith, of the Clover Leaf road.

Mr. Smith was in charge of the through freight and it had just pulled into the town and slowed up for a stop, when he attempted to step from the op of one car to another. The car on which he stepped was ice coated, a fact he failed to notice in the gray dawn, and he slipped and fell beneath the wheels. Both of his legs were cut off and it was apparent to those who rescued him from his terrible position that his injuries were fatal. A special train was made up to take him to his home in Frankfort where he died at haif past ten o'clock. He leaves a wife and two Bmall children. Mr. Smith waB one of the most popular employeB of the read. v.

WantH a Divorce.

Jacob Bennett, of Coal Creek township, has applied for a divorce from his wife, Jennie Bennett His complaint is a rather lengthy one and recites a harrowing tale of woe. It is a'leged that Jennie is a self-willed, stubborn, and quarrelsome woman, who, while living with the lamb-like p'aintiff, frequently slapped, struck, and wonded him in a manner contrary to the peace and dignity of the state of Indiana and likewise the state of matrimony. She refused to cook, she refused to wash, and refused to recog niz^ in the person of the plaintiff lord and master. She, on the con trary, treated him like a worm of the earth, and the worm has finally 'turned.
