He wrote to Constable Flaid about the horse some time ago, giving a description of the animal. The officer found a horse tallying exactly with the description, and wrote the owner accordingly. The latter came up yesterday, and with the constable visited the farm of Edwin St. George Rogers, where the horse was being worked. Adams identified the animal as his, and sent for his son to corroborate his statement. Mr. Rogers purchased the animal in 1880, of a man who claimed to have raised it.

THE RAILROADS.

Captain G. freight agent of the E
E. E. South, the newly appointed agent of the I. & St. L. in this city, has rented a house on north Sixth street and will move his family from Shelby ville immediately.
The time, it is believed, is not far distant, when the different southern system of railroads will change their gauge from five feet to four feet, eight inches, or standard gauge.
Engineers on the W. St. L. A P. now make $4.50 a day, an average time of nine hours each day. The business of the company is steadily on the increase both in passenger and freight traffic.
The Vandalia yard conductor at Indianapolis narrowly escaped a horrible death last night, while making a coupling. He slipped and fell, the bumpers of the cars inflicting a scalp wound.
Among the patents which expired in 1882, specially applicable to railroad devices are the following: One of the Miller platform and coupler patents, and the patents upon what have become known as Wright's stop wedge, Goodale's brake, the Christy and the Sellers & Rhodes brake shoes, and Wharton's switch.
Os Reynolds, car tracer of the Vandalia, went over to St. Louis yesterday, ostensibly on business. It is said, however," that the real object of his journey was to arrange for a talking match between himself and a steam talking machine of that city. Michigan talking machine bursted boiler some time ago in a futile attempt to out talk Mr. R.
The books of the secretary of state show that during the vear 1882 tuen ty-four railroads were incorporated in Indiana, including consolidations and extensions. The total mileage of the new roads, as estimated by the incorporations, was 1,450 miles. During the year Indiana built 528 miles of road, indicating the completion of a very largo per cent, of the roads organ ized.
H. L. Bushnell was in Indianapolis yesterday attending a meeting of the freight agents of all roads running north and west from Cincinnati,Louisville and Evansville, for a revision of tariff on all classes of freight. The general freight agents of the roads which bring south the lumber of the northern pineries also met to straighten some irregularities in the lumber rates which recently went into effect.
Indianapolis Journal J. N. McCullough, vice-president of the Pennsylvania company, yesterday, in company with President McKeen, Colonel Joseph Hill, superintendent, and N K. Elliott, master of transportation of the Vandalia, came over on the "cyclone" express from St. Louis. Mr. McCullough speaks in very complimentary terms of the Vandalia, more especially was he struck with the solidity and Vmoothness of the track of the middle division.
The Western Railroad association which held its annual meeting in Chicago day before yesterday, has membership of seventy-eight comp^ nies, operating over 52,000 miles of road, over 250,000 cars, and over 8,000 locomotives. The executive committee's report on membership contained the following paragraph: One company, the Evansville & Terre Haute, will not hereafter appear on our list by rea son of its consolidation with the Chicago & Eastern Illinois railroad company, which latter company is a member of the association.
The New Kallroadg.
There are some very close observers, men of experience, who do not think the business of building railroads has been overdone to the extent many have been led to believe. It is pointed out that there is a vast difference between the character and aim of much of the 12,000 miles added to our railway system last year and the railroad extension of 1873 that while great portion of the work of 1873 was unprofitable for years, and the capital invested almost as good as lost for time, the greater portion of the newly built roads are either parts of great trunk lines already in more or less successful operation or they are branches and feeders of great and financially powerful railroad systems. They are immediately useful and, in most cases, directly or indirectly profitable. The money invested in them, therefore, is not, as it was in a great measure liefore 1873, thrown into the sea and for the time being at least completely wasted and lost, but it is capital productively employed.
By Associated Press. Dealing in Tampered Tickets.
CHICAGO, Jan. 10.—C. G. Lincoln, ticket broker, has been arrested by the Wabash managers here for alleged dealing in tickets that had been tampered with. A large number of pec'uiar tickets were found, and Lincoln will be prosecuted.

charge.- The lour claimants were examined, and testified as to the worth of their services. An order was made in the beginning of the suit for the payment to the plaintiff by the defendant the sum of $400, and in the examination Mr. Mack, with some emphasis, charged that the money had
ger
one principally into the pockets of lawyers, ana said they were trying to get paid twice for the same work.
The motion Was argued and taken under advisement by the court. During Judge McNutt's address be was approached by the defendant, Clutter. The attorney paused in his remarks, and turning to Clutter, ordered him to sit downt statins that he could not be intimidated. He added that it was never his custom to enter a court room armed, but that he had been menaced by Clutter in the forenoon, with a revolver, and that on account of this he had come prepared for self defense. The bailiffordered Clutter to sit dowb, which he did, and Judge McNutt continued without interruption.
Just after he had completed his remarks he stepped into the consultation room, and was there confronted by Clutter. The latter applied an ap-
Ektter
robrious name to the attorney, the retaliated, and for a few minutes the air in the room was quite heated. Both parties went down into their clothing in a search for their artillery, but at this juncture Sheriff Cleary stepped in and enforced a cessation of hostilities. A few minutes after, Clutter was seen promenading Ohio street, expressing in no very mild terms his opinion of the legal gentlemen who had acted as his wife's attorneys.
AMUSEMENTS.
Wm. J. Scanlan In "Friend and Foe.' The opera house will be occupied this evening by Wm. J. Scanlan, the talented Irish comedian, and company, in his new play by Bartley Campbell, entitled "Friend and Foe." The New York News says: "This young comedian is very like Joseph Emmet (Fritz), possessing the same clear-cut profile, winsome smile, sweet voice, graceful manner and won derful magnetism—gifts rarely vouch safed to mortals either on or off the stage. Mr. Scanlan possesses a fine physique, pleasant face, roguish eye, ana a touch of the brogue that made doubly pleasant his nch voice, the tones of which were all. melody. His Carroll Moore is evidently a study from life, for while it was a quiet performance there was just enough in it of the reckless, rollicking, impulsive, warm-hearted Irishman to give it spice and make it a true picture of a character that has been too long misportray ed upon the dramatic stage. His clear enunciation of the lines and the effectiveness with which he gave the brilliant wit and humorous sayings of the part, added greatly to the beauty ot ithe performance. His singing of number of songs was In accordance with his acting—charming and heartwinning—his famous "Peek-a-boo" song creating a furore. He sang it in the last act, and again as the curtain descended, making a delightfully pleasing ending to the play. "Friend and Foe" may be ranked among Bartley Campbell's greatest dramatic successes, and Mr. Scanlan's Carroll Moore entitles him to the very front rank of Irish comedians, either of to-day or of the past thirty vears.
Notes.
Boucicault is sixty-one. Miss Bessie Darling will soon take the road with a new play.
On the 19th "Pinafore" will be sung in German at Allentown, Penn. An English artist says of Arabi: "His legs .are as unattractive as his face." As Arabi does not propose to come to America and play "Rosalini we fail to see what that artist is driving at. "The Wife's Revenge" is anew play. The plot is simple. Because the heroine's husband stays out late of nights at the lodge, she buys a $59 bonnet and has it charged. Tableau when the bill is presented.
A conclusion of the Boston Advertiser is that "the strictest Puritanism need not scruple to give the right hand of fellowship to Mrs. Langtry in society or anywhere else, for she certainlv is not an actress."
A BAD FALL.
A Farmer is Bun Over by His Wagon, Producing Fatal Injuries. A farmer named Knieriem, living south of the city, while driving home with a load of manure, late Tuesday evening, fell off his wagon, and one of the wheels ran over his chest, producing dangerous internal injuries. The accident occurred a half mile south of Idaho grocery„ He was removed to his home, and Dr. Kuester was summoned to examine the extent of his injuries. The physician pronounced the injuries fatal. Knieriem lingered until yesterday afternoon, when death put an end to his suffering. He was fifty-eight .years old,land was the father-in-law of Henry Hofl', the gardener.

OPERA HOUSE SOLD.
Wilson Naylor Becomes Owner of the Property, Faying Thereto the Sam of $75,(XX).
One of the largest real estate transfers ever made in this vicinity was consummated Tuesday afternoon, by Riddle, Hamilton & Co. This was the sale of the Opera house building and property to Wilson Naylor, the veteran grocer of this city, the purchase price being $75,000. Mr. Naylor drew his check for $55,000 of this amount.
Riddle, Hamilton & Co. have had control of the property for nearly twe years past, as agents for George P. Bissell, who held it in trust for the Travelers' insurance company. The latter company came into* control of the property in 1874, in a foreclosure of mortgage. The property sold at that time for $85,000, in round numbers. The cost of its construction, including the ground on which it was located, was $180,000.
There was an offer made a year or so ago by M. H. Spades, the Indianapolis merchant, to purchase the property, but the negotiations fell through on account of a failure to agree on terms. Mr. Naylor has been negotiating for the purchase for some time. The deed filed in the recorder's office yesterday bears date of December 18, 1882, but the formal transfer did not take place until Tuesday.
With the sale of the property is transferred the lease on the theater proper, held by Brooks & Dickson for a period of iiye years, at an annual rental of $2,000. A part of the lease is a proviso by the lessees to expend annually a certain amount on repairs. This provision will be fully carried out, under the immediate direction of T. H. Riddle, who has had charge ol the transfer. Among the improvements to be made is that of raising the lower floor. These changes will probably not be made until" during the next summer vacation. Some $2,000 or $3,000 will be expended on improvements during the time the house is closed.
The property is likely to prove paying investment to Mr. Naylor. The annual rents of the building, including the lease of Brooks & Dickson, amount to nearly $10,000. The corner store room occupied by Espenhain & Albrecht, alone rents for $2,000 a year. It is the intention of the new owner to make some material improvementsin the exterior appearance of the building, which will tend to strengthen its reputation as one of the most beautiful theaters in the west. It is peculiary fitting that the ownership of the property should once more revert to a citizen of Terre Haute.
A PLEASANT OCCASION.
Treasurer—Mrs. Maggie Kercheval.
Mrs. M. M. Riddle, in retiring from the office of Noble Grand, delivered the following address:
Some of the members of the lodge have requested me, in retiring from the chair, to make a speech. As I profess no gifts that way, I have written out a few thoughts which have suggested themselves to me at different times and will now read them for your consideration: First, in tracing back sixty-three years ago the history of Odd Fellowship, we find it was born among the working men near the close of the last century. The founders of the order were poor men of no influence, only five in number, but they were inspired from ttiat throne from which springs all good influence. This order has steadily increased, until we now number 60,000 ladies who have taken the degree of Rebecca, and we may well feel proud that our state of Indiana has the honor of establishing this degree. The principles of our lodge are friendship, love and truth. There is no sphere so difficult to fill as that of friendship. We scarcely are conscious that friendship is the very development of the gospel it has in it the sanctity of the divine example, and is the fruition of heaven upon earth. There "is such a thing as friendship, deep, lasting and beneficent. And yet how much there is of friendship that is bogus, counterfeit and false. Love is the outgrowth of a pure heart. We are commanded in the scriptures to "Love one another." Truth. "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor," is a divine command, and although not always obeyed, is no less binding. We as a body represent these three grand principles: Friendship, Love and Truth. Let us, brothers and sisters, be true to ourselves, true to each other, and live in accordance with our principles.
At the conclusion of the installation ceremonies, a fine collation was partaken of by the members and visitors.
