Tho first White Cap case ever tried In Perry County terminated very hard for tho defendants at Cannelton. It will to remembered that about a year ago Lewis and Otto Faulkonboruugh, Ed O’Kelth. and Hinton Carr visited the house of John Underhill, about' midnight, with the avowed Intention of whipping Un- 1 derhill. Otto broke down the door with a rail, then the four men rushed in on Underhill and gave him a terrible beatIng. At the last November term of court Carr confessed to tho Prosecuting Attorney, therefore he was made a State witness and allowed to go free, and. In conseqveuce tho defendants’ bond was increased from SSOO each to 81,000. Tho other day tho two Faulkonborotighs j pleaded guilty in open court. Otto tried to implicate a tnan by tho'nameof Marsh Land, but tho other two defendants said Land was not in .he crowd. Otto got five years and a 8200 bno. Sentence was suspended as to Lewis on account of ho being a minor at the time of the offense, but ho was ordered to pay the fine. Otto Is considered one of tho hardest mon in Perry County. He had many enemies, few friends, and ills, friends only con-, slsted of men like himself, or mon who feared him. Minor State New*. Columbus is to have a new hotel with ( 100 rooms. William C. Leonaud, a manufacturer of Elkhart, was found dead in bed by bis wife. The barn of John Hogue, near Vincennes, was burned. Five bead of horses were lost. Loss, $2,000; insurance,Sl,ooo. Andrew Lush, fireman on the Big Four, nc lived a fractured skull by a broken driving rod near Mooreland. May die. At Muncie, James Williams was accidently shot iu tho left leg by Andrew ( Catering, who was recklessly handling a revolver. Edwin Stuart, manager of the Opera House, a prominent Elk , and a wellknown actor, died athis home in Logansport of paresis. A saloon is about to be opened at Dublin. The place never had one before, and about three-fourths of the peop e are against, IL Muncie’s new city directory, which has just been completed, contains 10,722 names. The last census gives the city 10,763 population. Bedford has received positive assurances that the O. & M. Company will build a branch road from Mitchell to that city to tap the stone quarries. M. S. Littles, Evansville, has bought 600 acres of the finest coal lands in ■ Southern Indiana, near Petersburg. He will put 300 men to work in the spring. I A man has been fined fn the Carroll County Circuit Court for violating the law requiring the owners of traction engines to send a malf ahead to warn the public of its approach. Elwood is excited over what is alleged to be a big oil well. One year ago a gas well was drilled there, but a few days ago it gave out Now it has developed itself into an oil gusher. The heaviest verdict ever returned in ' Madison County for personal damages was given by a jury at Anderson in the case of Joseph Beck, of Lebanon, against tbe Big Four Railway Company. It amounted to $5,500. Alfred L. Richardson, district manager tor the Singer Sewing Machine Company at Martinsville for many years, died of cancer «t the stomach, and was ; buried under the auspices of the Odd • Fellows, at Mooresville. Henry Nelson, a workman at tho Stiuer chilled-plow works, in South Bend, was fatally injured by tbe frag-; meats of a broken emery wheel. One cheek was crushed and the right eye ( will have to be removed. Morton Jones, a young farmer, six' miles north of Frankfort, met with a : fatal accident. His horses ran away, | throwing him against a tree, in which position the rear wheel of the wagon struck him, crushing him to death. As A result of tho recent gas explosion at Lebanon the Lebanon Light, Heat, and Power Company is made defendent in a suit by Martin Hohl for $25,000} damages; $15,000 for personal injuries and SIO,OOO tor damage to his property. An infant daaghter of Mr, and Mrs. Ed Weesner of Somerset, was burped to death. The little one was playing about the house, and grasping a lamp on a stand, pulled it over. The oil took fire, and, flaming up, burned the face and breast of the child.. She died. Miss Maggie Dugan, daughter of John Dugan of Plainfield, who, with her sister, was injured last summer by a Vandalia train east of this place, is losing her mind. It is thought that the constant brooding over her injuries, which destroyed her handsome appearance, is the..cause of her dementia Miss Dugan | was a bright, intelligent woman, and' her present pitiable condition is deplored by her hosts'of friends. The other morning the dead bodies ol John Osterman,a farmer living ten miles cast of Fort Wayne, and his wife were' found in bed at their home. "At first it was supposed to be a double suicide, but on investigation by Prosecutor iColerick and Coroner Kessler it devefoped that Osterman poisoned his wife and himself. A week ago he went to Fort Wayne and stole a steam guage, and it was found in his house. It is supposed he feared arrest, and put arsonic in the coffee at supper. The old folks, both being over seventy, were destitute. The house they lived in wa« a hovel and barren of furniture. During tho past winter they suffered, not for fuel, but because the only stove had was almost worthless. There are two lawyers and two preachers among the convicts at the Northern Prison. \ The other night a gang of thieves failed in an attempt at robbery at the home of Farmer John Lindsay, near ■ Muncie. A wagon was driven to Lindsay’s barn, and over SIOO worth clover and tlmotby-seed loaded in beady to be carted away. As the men drove off the rear axle of the wagon broke in two. The thieve? wore badly scared by the noise made, hurriedly unhitched the team of horses, and left the wagon and contents. Mr. Lindsay is now searching fer the owner of that wagon.

INDIANA LEGISLATURE. Tna only business transacted. In tho LegMature Monday was tho passage of two constitutional amendments by the House. The first ‘provides that hereafter corporations shall pay taxes on the gross receipts. The second amendment provides for extending tho legislative sesalon from sixty to I(X> dave. making extra sessions when called to be of forty days' duration. The amendment providing for the'extension of terms of all county officers to for years wus defeated. The House, Tuesday, ordered the co-em-ployes' liability bill engrossed. Among tho Committee reports was one from tbe Committee on cities and towns, recommending Mr. Bodnbaugh'e charter bill tor Fort Wayno and another favoring his annexation bill. Both reports were approved. | There will lie fewer long-winded speeches in the House hereafter. Mr, Alter offered a resolution, which was adopted, limiting all speeches on committee reports to five minutes, and on engrossment ana third reading to ten minutes. I The Senate killed a number of unimportant bills tha’ camo up on Committee reports, and spent the balance of the day discussing the Building and Loan Association bill, which was finally ordered engrossed with a few minor amendments. 1 Important action was taken by the Senate, Wednesday, in engrossing the bill incorporating loan, trust, and safety deposit companies and enabling them to act as trustees of the estates of deceased persons and as guardians of persons of unsound mind. etc. Tho Senate also took approving action on the bill giving minority parties the right ot representation on election boards. The House approved a resolution looking to tho appointment of a special committee to investigate aud report on fees and salaries. 1 The House struggled for several hours over tho Senate bill providing for elections but once every four years in cities and towns and making present offices hold over till 1896. By a close shave the bill reached . engrossment. I The general appropriation bill was introduced in the House by the Ways and Menns Committee, and was made the special order for Friday at 2 p.m. ' Tho House called up the majority and minority reports of the committee on tho bill appropriating $59,000 in aid of the National Encampment. G. A. R,, and the majority report, recommending an indeflnate postponement, was approved by a vote of 51 to 45. This settles the question of State aid in the negative. A bill has passed the I House, however, empowering tho City Council to levy a special tax of $75,000 in aid ol tho proposed encampment. I The House passed the bill creating the , office of Boiler Inspector and calling for the | inspection of all steam boilers in tho State. I In the Senate. Thursday. Magee’s bill, making it unlawful for Warden's of prisons to let the labor cf convicts to contractors at I less than 95 cents a day was ordered engrossed without division. Among the bills passed in the Senate was one making it unlawful to practice pharmacy without a certificate to bo issued by the Circuit Court I Clerk on diploma from a college or school of pharmacy; increasing the jurisdiction of the Appelate court to cover cases Involving $3,500 and enlarging its jurisdiction in misdemeanorcases, and fixing the rate of interest on Congrcstional and common school ' fund loans at 6 per cent. A bill was introduced and pushed to engrossment in the Senate which is approved by the State Board of Charities, and looks to the aboliI tion of corporal punishment in the prisons, except in extreme eases. | The bill extending the time of all officers of cities, towns, and corporations to 1894. and making the terms four years thereafter, I was called up and poshed to its passage in tlie House. Evansville and Indianapolis of the cities of the State are alone exempt The Speaker laid before tho House theTnajority and minority reports, tho first suggesting amendments which exempted the I librarian, engineer, and custodian of the Capitol Building from appointment by the Governor, while the other recomended an indefinite postponement of the whole business. Debate was cut off under the previous question, and on an yea and nay vote | the Governor won by a majority of 61 to 83. ' Two important amendments were made to the school-book law in the Senate. Friday. One amendment permits the placing of school books contracted for in the hands of the local dealers instead of being I furnished directly to the County SuperinI tendent or Township Trustee. The dealer is I prohibited from selling in advance of the contract prieo. Another amendment gives . school commissioners the right to make ; changes in books, so as to bring them up to ; the required standard. Senator Boord, the youngest man in the i Senate, introduced a bill to prevent the | manufacture and sale of "hoop-skirts" in the State. The bill declares that the fashion of wearing "hoop-skiris" was revived by a combination of fashion producers and dress ■ goods manufacturers, the noops requiring more dress goods and creating an unnatural ■ demand, and that women were, compelled to wear them for fear of being ostracised by I society in general. The penalty of violatj ing the law was fixed at a maximum of I SI,OOO fine with thirty days’ imprisonment. I The House took another whack at the bill ’ wiping out the Pennsylvania Central Insurance business, and it undid tho work by I which the question of insuring with the I company was left optional with the employe. This is the second time the bill has been reconsidered, each time with different results. ) The 00-employes liability bill was passed by-the House. 69 to without discussion. Consideration of the general appropriations has gone over until Monday. Minor State Items. Charles Kohlmeyer, a young farmer of Knox County, was killed by being kicked In the breast by a Texas pony. The Wabash Hospital at Peru, has about thirty patients, the largest number that has been confined there for some time. An old maid at Martinsville presents the following argument in favor of hoop- ' skirts: "It keeps tho men at a distance.” A league of young ladies has been formed in Shelbyville with thirty-one signers up to date, who say they will not wear hoopskirts. John Heishman, near Corydon, had his loft leg so badly ernshed in a hay i press that amputation was necessary, and he died from the effects of the operation. Most of the negroes along the Mississippi river are grossly ignorant. It is said that not one in twenty lias any practical knowledge of reading or writing. Many of them got in arithmetic no further than the single record —as a memorandum—of a number which they Usually put down exactly as spoken; thus, 200502 for 252. In consequence some of their prety cotton accounts look as big as a national debt statement. A Stupendous Bridge. A bridge aercss the Firth-of-Forth, Scotland, is projected, and, indeed, is already under way, which, if finished, | will be one of the most remarkable bridges in the world. The main girder will be within a few feet of a mile in' length, and will rest upon cylindrical piers, each of which will weigh 16,000 tons. It will, cf course, be high enough for all vessels to pass underneath, and about 42,000 tons of steel will be required in its construction. The estimated cost will be $7,500,000. The Asiatic breeds and also the Plymouth Rocks are too large and coarse to fry after they attaintheir growth. The Leghorn family, however, are different, they being better when pretty well grown than earlier. The Minorcas, Black Spanish, aud Leghorns are the best breeds for eggs. The gooie lays about twenty eggs, but at times they will reach as many as forty. Four weeks are about the time for Incubation, or, rather thirty days, and the market Is more favor•w® tq geese under one year of age.

The Old Venal nn Carnival, The carnival then lasted six months, and masking *« a universal habit. It has been said that in the beginning the mask was a token of fraternal condescension on tno part of rich and noble toward their Inferiors. W leveled all ranks, like the grave, though In a more agreeable manner. But this dtopiab Justification of It aoon passed out of date. It became Instead ths very best possible vehicle for intrigue and social corruption. That fn effect was what it was. During carnival time no one thought of going out of doors except In disguise. The maid sent on an errand must first don her mask —of which no doubt, her lover, or lovers, bad the key. The mother with a child In her arms masked both herself and tbe child. W»i John Bunyan a Gypiiy? In tho St. Mary Magdaleno's (Launceston) parish register (Vol. I, fol. 74) is this entry, In 1586: "Marche the Ivth dale was christened Nicholas, sonne of James Bownla, an Egvotla rogue." This Mr. F. H. Orootne offers as a fresh link in the chain of evidence that John Bunyan was a Gvp«v. "Egyptia," he says. Is evidently "Egyptian." and "Bownia.” he asks, may ft not be Bownian? If t»o, have we not hero a veritable gypsy Bunyan? ft is a far cry from Launceston, fn Cornwall, to Elston, In Bedfordshire, ho adds, were nomads not In tlie case,and, in time, the interval between the baptism and tho birth of the "inspired tinker” is but forty-two years. New Uae for the I’lionograph. It has recently been stated tliat Super; intendent Johnson of the Deaf and Dumb Institute at Indianapolis, lias teen making experiments with the phonograph, and believes that fn connection with it he can teach tbe majority ot tho deaf mutes under his charge, to talk. He finds that tbe Instrument concentrates the sound at tho drum of the ear in such away that many of the pupils otherwise deaf are enabled to hear. Ho intends to carry the experiments further, and thinks the phonograph may become a means of teaching tho use of their voices to some mutes whose inability to speak is due to tho fact that they have never heard speech. How We Grow Ohl. The thread that binds Us to life is most frequently severed ere the meridian of life is reached in the case of persons who neglect obvious means to renew failing strength. Vigor, no less the source ot happiness than the condition of long life, can be created and perpetuated where it does not exist. Thousands who have experienced or are cognizant—including many physicians of eminence—of the effects of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters,bear testimony to its wondrous efficacy as a creator of strength In enfeebled constitutions and debilitated and shattered systems. A steady performance of the bodUy functions, renewed appetite, flesh, and nightly repose attend the use of this thorough and standard renovant. Use nolocal tonic represented to be akin to or resemble it in its place. Demand the genuine, which is an acknowledged remedy for indigestion, malaria, nervousness, constipation, liver and kidney complaints and rheumatism. How She Walked, A school teacher In one of tbe primary schools In Concord tolls me the following: Some days ago she was endeavoring to make clear to her young pupils’ mind the meaning of the word “slowly.” She walked across the room in the manner the word indicates. “Now, children, tell me how I walked.” r One little fellow who sat near tbe front of the room almost paralysed her by blurting out: “Bow-legged.”—Boston Globe. No matter how black it may look, we are never in the dark when we have God for our guide. Cleanliness, exsreise, and diet are the cardinal virtues of good health. Take care of the first two. and if you know how and what to eat you need never be ill. It is claimed that Garfield Tea, a simple herbremedy, overcomes the results of wrong living. It is probably the number ot tars on board which makes a vessel pitch. For Coughs and Throat troubles use Brown’s Bronchial Troches.— "They stop an attack of my asthma cough very promptly."—C.

Purl. ChUdleM. A lector says that Paris Is almost childless. Tradesmen wish their wives to help In the shop, and In order that tho wives may be free to do this tbe children a»e put outtonurse in the country. The same custom is genera! among all working people. More than fifty per cent, of the children born in Paris die in the baby-farmer’s hands, this correspondent declares, before they have reached their second year. Forty creches have been established fn the city, but the counter-influence of these has teen trifling. A nurse of whom no questions are asked charges 25 francs a month for the keep of a baby: those who are registered and overlooked demand 60 francs more. They find their customers among the prosperous middle classes, but tbe working people cannot afford to go to them. He Got Hl« Gold. Two prospectors at Wilkeson. Wn., came near making a remarka le strike that might have turned the tide of gold hunters from the San Juan country. As they were industriously digging away a miner camo wildly rushing upon them and began to dig Into the earth less than a dozen feet away. In a few minutes he unearthed an oyster can and started off with it, chuckling joyously. He had hidden forty S2O gold pieces fn the can on the hillside weeks before and believed it to be secure until he heard casually that men were prospecting there; The prospectors were within tenfeqtofbis "hide” and digging straight toward it when he rescued his property.

Salutations. The Chinese settlers on the Island of Sumatra have a strange and ludicrous form of salutation. When they meet each other, say after an absence of a month or longer, they do not shake each other’s hand; they smile broadly and each grasps his own hwid, shaking it vigorously fora few moments. Dangers ol the Season. The sudden changes in weather in tho latter part of the winter and early spring are a source of colds and coughs. This season is a particularly dangerous one for persons with weak lungs or of delicate constitution. A slight cold is likelv to become a serious one. and the cough that follows is thq one great cause of the many dea hs from! onsumption in the early spring.i Never neglect a cold or cough.

J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, 0 Gentlemen ; —1 desire to make a brief statement for the benefit of the suffering. I had been afflicted with catarrh of the head, throat and nose, and perhaps the bladder for fully twenty-five years. Having tried other remedies without success, I was led by an advertisement in the Sentinel-Demo-crat to try Hall’s Catarrh Cure. I have just finished my fourth bottle, and 1 believe I am 'right when I say I am thoroughly restored. 1 don’t believe there is a trace of the disease left. Respectfully, WM. BRIDGES, Merchant Tailor.

— .I* ‘August Flower” My wife suffered with indigestion and dyspepsia for years. Life became a burden to her. Physicians failed to give relief. After reading one of your books, I purchased a bottle of August Flower. It worked like a charm. My wife received immediate relief after taking the first dose. She was completely cured — now weighs 165 pounds, and can eat anything she desires without any deleterious results as was formerly the case. C. H. Dear, Prop’r Washington House, Washington, Va. ®
