NEWLIN'S CASE.
Mattoon Paper Criticizes Lawyer Crowley Who Has Been Retained for Defense.
The Mattoon, Ill., Journal says: "Tim" Newlin, the man who murdered Walter Gossman in Terre Haute by hitting him over the head with a heavy iron cuspidor, knocking his brains out, is to have a strong defense. Our used-to-be congressman, Joe Crowley, of Robinson, Ill., promises to take a number of doses of Peruna and go into the Vigo county circuit court like a raging lion and clear Newlin.
The crime is of local interest in Mattoon, partly because it was committed in the gambling house of "Slim" Keeth, a former Mattoon sport who left this city about two years ago, locating in Hoosierdom.
The defense Crowley will make is that Gossman used such vile and insulting language to Newlin that he was provoked to madness and hit him, not intending the blow to cause death.
Crowley says that Newlin comes of an old and respected Cumberland county family and that there are a hundred voting members of it. Not one of them, heretofore, has ever been arrested for a crime.
Newlin was formerly a Big Four brakeman and is known among the Mattoon railway men.
The prevention of consumption is entirely a question of commencing the proper treatment in time. Nothing is so well adapted to ward off fatal lung troubles as Foley's Honey and Tar. Sold by all druggists.
Housekeepers are sometimes importuned to buy other powders because they are "cheap." Housekeepers should stop and think. If such powders are lower priced, are they not inferior?

TWO LODGES MERGED
EXPLANATION OF NEW MOVEMENT OF JUNIO ORDERS.
OFFICIAL NOTICE ISSUED
Believed That More Effective and Satisfactory Results can be Obtained in One Lodge.
Chauncey Rose.Council No. 68, Jr. O. U. A. M., will not continue longer to exis as a separate organization. It. has been decided to merge with Lincoln Council No. 08 of the same order, and the last regular meeting of the old council was held Tuesday night. Lincoln, Council will retain its name and number. The reasons for the change are embodied iti a statement issued by tlie council, which reads as follows: "We unite with our sister council not because we cannot stand upon our own resources, but because we feel the work of the junior order can be better pursued united in one strong organization than in two bands. We feel a pride in our own little organization. We feel we have accomplished much in the short, period which we have lived' as juniors, and that we are the better and stronger today to cope with the many problems which confront us, and we must say there is a sadness in our hearts when we think of the associations which have been our lot to enjoy, as only brotherly love and true friendship prevailed among the brothers, covering the membership like a mantle of peace, good will and charity. "The mission of Chauncey Rose, N. 08. is now drawn to a close and it has not been in vain: we have labored for the good of the order. "When or wherever the name of Chauncey Rose will be called, a thrill of pride and a blush of gratitude will pass over each and every one of us. As Ave sever our local bonds to unite with our big brothers let us grasp our lianas in one last fond grasp of .brotherly love and fellowship. and with the blessing of the Almighty upon our heads and His truths in our hearts let us elasp the hands of our new brothers an.rt pledge to them our best effort. the support of our influence and our ability to its fullest capacity. "That the banner of the junior order may reach all the cities and towns in western Indiana until every American citizen shall inscribe his name upon the roll of the Junior Order United Americans."
Tt was through the efl'orts of W. H. Church that the Chauncey Rose Council was inaugurated on May 16, 1000. There were twenty-four charter members and the lodjre was instituted by Councilor Nick Ottenberge. In the two years since not a member has been removed through death and only one claim for sick benefit lias been made, it extending over a period of three weeks. The following are past commanders of the council: T.' King, W. A. Church. F. Kelloirg. II. Newberper. If. VanBrunt. Leo T. Smith and Charles Cook. The merging of the two councils will give Lincoln a membership of over 400.

ECHO OF SENSATION
HARKNESS REPLEVINS HIS SHOE, PICTURE AND BIBLE.
GOODS BROUGHT TO' STATION
Writ of Replevin was Issued by Ju? tice Brown Last Night—Kersey will Sue for Divorce.
Late last night Edwa.rd Harkness, who figured in the sensational escapade Tuesday night with Mrs. W. P. lversey, held a consultation with his attorney, Frank A. Rawley, which resulted in his swearing out a writ of replevin for the articles confiscated by the wronged husband. Justice Brown issued the writ last night and Mr. Kersey, in compliance, delivered the goods to the police station this morning. Among the goods taken by Kersey, after Harkness had escaped, was a watch, a pair of trousers, an overcoat, one shoe, a picture of himself and a bi ble. When the goods were piled out 011 the table at the police station, this morning, the bible was not amongst them. When Harkness came in he asked that his bible also be returned. Word was sent to Kersey and a few moments later he came walking in with it. Kersey said that he did not question Harkness' title to the goods, but only wanted him to conic for them himself.
Harkness denies that there was anything criminal between himself and Mrs. Kersey. Mr. Kersey says that he had frequently accused his }vtfe being too intimate with Harkness and that Harkness had threatened to sue him for slander for making such accusations.
The woman is still at the home of her mother, Mrs. McGlone. 011 North Third street, and bears the marks of the beating given her by her husband. She will not return to her home, and KerSey says that lie will at once sue for a divorce. He has possession of the children.
Several of Harkness' letters to the woman have been found and are as follows: !)-G-'02. My Own Kathryn: sincerely hope yoti got through nil right last night. It certainly was a close call, but at no time was T. one bit nervous or uneasy. When he was talking so short to you I so much wanted to take your part. Am going for your skirt and wrap and will bring them to you at 11 o'clock.

FREIGHT STRAIN RELAXES.
Holidays Followed by Light Business and Men Catch Up in Their Work. "The first day in which freight may have been said to be light since the great rush commenced two months ago, was yesterday." was the statement made this morning by the agent of one of the roads running through Terre Haute. Tt is probably due to the fact that many of the traveling men have been "laying off" during the holidays, and merchants have not been buying goods.
The fact that a day should be lighter than 'usual would carry no significance with it but yesterday was decidedly light for any time of year and that means that at least the worst of the great rush is over. Of course the coal trains continued to roll through as regularly as ever, but the other traffic was reduced to a minimum.
SECURE NEW QUARTERS.
Ute Tribe, Red Men, Will be Installed in Swope Block in the Future.
Ute Tribe, Order .of Red Men, met yesterday evening in their hall on South Third street and decided to lease new quarters in the Swope block, with the Odd Fellows. The lease will be for a term of from one to -four years. The meeting night was changed from Wednesdays to Tuesdays also. The Red Men will use the furniture of the Odd'Fellows. The application of Wiiliam Horseley was received and will be acted on at the next meeting.
The Religious Debate.
Dr. W. R. Mattox and Elder E. Dailey met again yesterday evening to talk over plans for their religious debate to be held at the Armory next week. Each contestant is inviting a number of interested friends to be present and the meetings will be open to the general public. James H. Oliphant, an evangelist of Crawfordsvllle will act as moderator for Dr. Mattox. The chairman, as alreadyannounced will be C. M.
