The ride through the grand canyon of Lamospa was grand. Its beauties and wonders are really Indescribable by me. There are places that are thousands of down and thousands of feet up. There is one place where no steam is usecj for seventeen miles, and if the road was straight one might go down in tee minutes; but the brakes are set an( the time is one hour and twenty seven minutes. This Is for safety At the beginning of the canyon it ii said you can see the rails beginninj to bend down, that is at the other end for we are beginning at the botton and going up. The train has stoppei howevea before we reached thi grand canyon, to let us visit som< famous spots. The first is Ch©y Cave We climbed down about two hundred steps to it, and it was well wort! the effort. The cave is about 200 feel high, and the subterranean river whirl urns through it is nearly a hundre( feet deep. Our next stop was at E Salto del Abra, where we walked through a passage or tunnnei cut ii the rock and came out near a oiscadi three hundred feet of a fall. Ciiffi thee thousand feet above us drapei with the rarest and most beaulifu foms and orchids. A wonderful plan to see. Another stop was at Punenti de Dios the “Bridge of the Gods." Wi walked through a coffee plantatioi down e bout a thousand steps to when a rushing mountain stream laps to i great cascade to a deep green poo passes under a stone natura bridge, and takes another leap. A1 this time w e are climbing up the moun tains. Sometimes we can see oiu track winding so it looks like sit tracks. There is so much to tell yot shout my trip I must not spend mor« time on this.

MRS. MORRISON. ■ ■ ■ o—--IST DEGREE MURDER Is Charged Against Him by the Grand Jury—Chain of Evidence Complete Van Wert. Ma:ch 17. —The special grand jury in the court of common pleas, filed its report yesterday afternoon. The jury was called for the express purpose of investigating the death of Mrs. Martin Brown and tu that end examined upwards of sixty witnesses. Martin Brown, the husband of the dead woman, who was arrested on suspicion, after the first day of a hearing before Dr, Riehisou, county coroner, is held by the juiy to be responsible for her death. The charge placed against him is murderj in the first degree. His crime was one of the most heartless ever committed in this section.. and with intent to get rid of his wife that he might be free to seek the affections of another woman, he gave his wife strychnine powders, when she was suffering from the grippe. Mrs. Brown was Adams county. * ——• — HE WAS ARRESTED Julius Haugk Filed Affidavit Against Him Charging Provoke Kirt Johnson, the young man who just recently received his discharge from the Jeffersonville reformatory, after being out on parole for several months, has again gotten into trouble. Last night he proceeded to load up with bad whiskey and went into one of tae saloons, where he indulged ia abusive talk to Julius Haugk. Johnson demanded that Haugk buy a drink and Haugk informed him that he was not buying presents for everybody. Johnson became angry and called Haugk names that were not at all complimentary. Mr. Haugk went before Squire Smith and filed an affidavit against the young man. for provoke. It seems that Johnson has not profited much by the punishment he has received as he has had every chance in the world to make good. The people of Decatur have reposed much confidence in him but if he persists in this kind of work, It will not be long until he will relinquish his claims. Johnson plead guilty before Squire Smith and was sentenced to ten days jfc Jail.
