I.—John Henry Hogg, prominent farmer and hog raiser of this county, was arrested by the sheriff of Hendricks county on an affidavit charging him with issuing a note for $12,000 under false representation.

PROPOSE WHIP FOR DOPE SELLERS London, July 28—British judges hope soon to enforce the "cat o' nine tails” as an addition to terms of imprisonment to men found guilty of selling “dope” to girls. The public outcry against the dope sellers has been further swelled by the description of the living room of one of these sellers recently sentenced. Writing to the London Times, a king’s councillor says: “Picture the prisoner’s room as it was described by the police! “In it were phials of morphine, a bottle with traces of cocaine, an opium pipe, a pocketbook containing drugs and a “dope” price list, a revolver and a number of very indecent photographs. The worst of poisons, poisons which dethrone the reason and destroy selfcontrol, firearms and obscene photographs! Can anyone imagine the fate of these girls, who. in their innocence, entered that arsenal of vice?” This man was sentenced only to six months. „ The public are demanding that men of his kind should be given six years and a horsewhipping, with the “cat,” into the bargain.
