Notice of Church Dedication. —The new M. E. Church in Barkley township, on the Rensselaer Circuit, seven miles east of Rensselaer, on the Francesville road will be dedicated Sabbath, November 15th, 1885. Rev. JH. Claypool will preach at 10 a. in., and Rev. J. T. Abbett in the afternoon. Dr. M. B. Alter and family have returned from Kansas. Thursday, November 26th, has been designated by the President as a day for Thanksgiving. John B. Huger of Lafayette, has been appointed postmaster for that city. A good appointment. The Republicans in Ohio are trying as hard to steal the election in Hamilton county, that State, as Jim Blaine did to steal that in New York State a year ago. A' a special meeting os‘ the Town Board, last Monday even'ng, the resignation of John Q. Alter, as Marshal, was accepted, and Henry Wood appointed to the vacaney. '■ ♦ •» ■ ■ The drawing of Mrs. Alice Dunlap’s Silk Quilt wil take place on Wednesday of next week. It will be conducted by three disinterested parties, and in a manner which will not admit of a suspicion cf unfairness. T e drawing will be held in the Court House. The Chicago Grocery, R. F. Priest, proprietor, is now in full blast, in the Williams-Stockton block. Extensive'stock, new, fresh, and at prices that defy competition. Everybody respectfully invited to call and see for themselves. Since the President’s return from New York it is very eviden ‘suspensions” have not been “suspended” to a very great extent notwithstanding the list published in the Chicago Times, and approvingly referred to by our neighbor. Clark Price, formerly of this county, has been elected to the Re. publican wing of the Kansas Legislature. Clark is a clever young gentleman, of fine talents, and wil make his mark i he adopte broad national views and diecards the sectional demagogueries of' th# the leaders of his party. The South Bend Tribune states that ex-Congressman Ashley, the mover of the impeachment resolutions against President Andrew John on in the House of Representatives, backs up Chauncey M. Depew’s statement in regard to the Johnson-Grant controversy. Ex. Congressman Ashley was one of the conspirators to overthrow Pres’i Johnsen’s reconstruction policy, and would swear to a lie quicker than the editor of the riiune co’d say “Jack Robinson.”

Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon, from the Catholi? church, BozFather Zurubuelte officiating. The public sincerely sympathize with the afflicted family.

Wartner to Suffee Death.

The trial of Wartner for ihe murder of John Dreger commenced on Tuesday of last week, and closed with the sentence of death pronouced by Judge Ward, Tuesday night of this week. Prosecutor Walker and Ralph W. Marshall, Esq., represented the State, and F. W. Babcock, Esq., and Hon. P. S. Dwiggins, appear for the defenseThe following named gentlemen compose the jury: W. S. Coen, of Marion township; Enoch S Clark, Milroy; John Coen, Marion; Chas. E. Loshbaugh, Milroy; James W. Cowden, Barkley; Perry Marlatt, Barkley; James H. Green, Carpenter; Geo. Kissinger, Jordan; Jos. G. Hunt, Gillam; Robert F. Irwin, Carpenter; George Blaze, Gillam; Robert MichaeIs, Jordan. Witnesses for the Stat were: S. P. Thompson, Alexander Tyler, J. W. Haan, Daniel E. Fairchild, P. F. Fieldman, Witsey Punter’ Albert Brooks, Charles Dolsou’ Benj. Dolson, O. P. Robinson, Jas. W. Dout it, John Kosky, Jno. W. Gant, C. O. Spencer.

The case, briefly steted, is as follows: Wartner came to this country, from Holland, in the spring of 1883; lived in Pullman 111., one year; came to Keener township, this county, in the spring of 1884: made a precarious living by fishing and disposing of fish, and by doing odd jobs for neighbors; his victim, John Dreger, was his nearest neighbor and best friend, having assisted and accommodated him on numerous occasions; Wartner pretended t:;at money was due him in Holland, and was expecting a check for the ain’t, S4OO, with which he would purchase Dreger’s personal property, consisting of cows, etc. On the Bth October, 1884, Wartener secured Dreger to go with him to the river, a few miles distant, to bring home some fish, he claimed to have there; in the wagon he deposited the implements with which he designed to commit the crime. Dreger was that day murdered, his body weighted and sunk in the river. On returning home, Wartner took possession of the property he “coveted, claiming to have Enrchased with his check from lolland, and that his victim hiid gone to get it cashed. About the last day of Octobe, 1884, tl e body of a man was d scovered floating in the river and recognized as that of Dreger. The above are the points made by the witnesses, and in theicoaf eseion made to Mr. Douihit. Last January, on plea of guilty, he was sentenced by Judge Ward to differ de th, r but the Supreme Court remanded it. back for jury trial, and the jury, last Sunday affixed the same penally. The defense was insanity but was not sustained. On Monday moiling the proceedings were interrupted by the occu -rence of a sad accident in the family of Mr. Babcock, one of the attorneys for the defense. On Tuesday evening Messrs. Babcock and Dwiggins moved for a new trial and argued it with force and ability; Mr. Fraser, .representing the State, resisted the motion. After hearing argument the Court refu edthe motion and proceeded to pass sentence.— lhe Judge, through an interpreter, announced to the condemned the verdict of he jury, am t asked i- ; he hud anything to say v.hy the judgment should not be pronounced? He responded: “Only h.t a should like to live.” A in rt pause occurred at this point, nd the prisoner fainted, falling ii - 1 ' ■i. o t■.!< j• 1 .or. ciisaluTab■ e .-miu.'an .'cllowed.
