Arithmetics— Elementary,7 cents; complete, 11 cents. Geographies (except Indiana edition)—Elemen tary. 11 cents; cents Or to put it in a difierentway: Five cents and the old first reader in use bups a new first reader.

A tramp named Smith was up before Justice Morgan Tuesday morning charged with cutting Tom Akers, a crippie 14 or 15 vears of age, over the apex of the heart with a pocket knife. The knife penetrated the boy’s vest and shirt and madej a slight wound. It is supposed the knife struck a rib and thus prevented causing a wound that might have resulted in death. The tramp was captured a few miles south of town by Constable Wood and Marshal SiuiDson, and identified by the boy. He was held to the circuit court in the sum of 8500. Smoke the Mascot.
