GUIDED BY SPIRITS Patent For an Improved Fence Applied For by a Spiritualist, SOUGHT SECLUSION TO DIE. Eomrd County Farmer Regal na Hla Land—Farmers Proclaim Their Views on the Currency Question- Killed by a Locomotive — Scott Jackson’s Friend. Other Interesting Trl-State News. Eckerty, Ind., Aug. 18.—Early last April a gentleman arrived at Branchville, who took lodgings at the Essay hotel, but ho did not register his name, and soon became known in the village as the “stranger.” Noone knew from whence he camo, and the only place he was ever heard to mention during his limited conversations was Evansville. For some time after his arrival he was able to sit up and move about. He was ! affable in his deportment, but averse to forming acquaintances and careful not to disclose his name. During the past six weeks he was confined to his bed, ! and Sunday he died. The deceased was always neatly dressed, and all bills were paid promptly whenever service was rendered. He was about 40 years old, five feet eight inches in hight, slender physique, dark brown hair and sandy mustache; hazel eyes, aquiline nose, very fair skin, small mouth, with mole on left edge. The left leg had been broken above the knee, probably many years ago, which caused a perceptible limp. There is much speculation over his seeking rural seclusion and awaiting death in a little hamlet 15 miles from railway or river connection. GUIDED BY SPIRITS. Patent For an Improved Fence Applied For by a Spirit cal lnt.J Anderson, Ind., Aug. 18.—James Shimer, one of the best known spiritualists in eastern Indiana, has made application for a patent on a fence.

He thinks the result is not due to any genius on his part, but is simply the work of the spirits through him. Th« fence possesses many good points. CHARGED WITH INTENT TO KILL. Charles Lundy Arraigned In Police Court at Cincinnati. Cincinnati, 0., Aug. 18.—Charles Lundy, who stabbed Frank S. Rothacher, was arraigned in the police court yesterday and his case continued until Aug. 27. The charge was cutting with intent to kill. Rothacher’s wound is a penetrating one, requiring an operation to secure the several parts, and the outcome is accordingly very doubtful. Lundy says he was accosted in the street car with the remark: “You think you are a lawyer, don’t you?” Then the speaker said: “My brother, Vic Rothacher, can tell whether you are or not.” It was then he recognized Rothacher. He had been attorney for Victor B. Rothacher’s wife iu a divorce suit. Lundy says the conductor stopped the wordy quarrel and that he then tried to evade, Rothacher. Lundy studied law with the late George H. Pendleton and was a protege of his.
