... A Police Alarm.

Chief of Police Fasig says that the police department is laboring under great difficulty since the telephone Btrike begun. In several of the districts there are no telephones.

If the system should be established here it would undoubtedly be an excellent thing. Business men would place burglar alarms in their stores, and if a burglar attempted to make an entrance he would give himself away at police headquarters

THE TERRE HADT1 EXPRESS. TUESDAY MORNING. JANUARY 8 ISP4

AWFUL IilARB.

Truth Snatched Bald By Two of th« "Oldest Inhabitants."

"I tell you, it's mighty cold," said an old man, as he came into a Justice's of* fice, yesterday. "But it's not as cold as I have seen it, though, not by along ways." "Nor me nuttier," said an old gentleman sitting back by the stove. "I've lived in this county nigh onto forty years, and yon better believe I've Been weather that would freeze the hair off a brass monkey." "Now," said the first old gentleman, "we are both getting old, and its useless for us to prevaricate before these young gentlemen. The rising generation has a little sense, and its no use for us old fellows to impose upon them. For my part this is the coldest weather I ever experienced in Indi' ana. But in Vermont, where the thermometer goes down to the 80's and the 40's very frequently, it's nothing Why, sir, I've saw ice sixteen feet thick there. I've saw the rivers frozen solid I've saw Lake Champlain frozen over, and railroad trains running over it, carrying excursion parties."

By this time a big crowd had gath ered around the story-teller, and were listening to him with mouths wide open. The one addressed as Sam sat behind the stove, all attention, but with a smile of contempt on his face. "You Hoosiers, you native born Hoosiers, don't never experience any cold weather. Talk about this. It's a little cold, I'll admit, but as compared to cold weather, it's like comparing an April shower to a March gale.

Sam scratched his head and looked at the Vermonter. "Bill," said he, "if you wern't such an infernal liar, might believe you, and this crowd of honest, virtuous citizens might take some stock in you but they don't, and what's more, I don't. Now, I've saw more cold weather than ever you did, I know I've lived nowhere but in Indiana, except the year I was drafted and went into the army, but I still stick to the story that. I've experienced cold weather. Let me see. It was in the year '53,1 think it was. Yes, that's the year I lived on Lost creek. Well, that winter was simply cold. The winter opened early. It was a bright day in September, and it was warm, too. Mv boy. _Tqp°T won-fr iiii ii iui) 61 utner boyS) ftud while they were sporting in the water it turned cold all at once, and before the youngsters could get out they were frozen stiff in the ice. And there they staid all winter, through the sleet and the snow, till May. I thought Tom was dead, but just as I was gettin ready to plant corn the boys thawei out and Tom come home."

The old man looked up to see what effect the story would have. The room was almost vacant. The audience, with the exception of an Express reporter, had left him in his glory.

The Key-Renaud Wedding. Army and Navy Jeumal. There were twenty-seven mariage certificates signed at the ratification of the civil contract in advance of the religious marriage ceremony between Miss Hattie Key and Captain JohnLeon Benaud, of the French army. The groom, whose mother by the way is an American lady, seemed as if he coald not make the bond secure enough to shower enough presents on his pretty American bride. When he came to ratify Ihe civil contract be bought her along silk stocking filled with small gold pieces as a Christmas sift. He also gave her a pair of solitarie diamond ear-rings and a gold band for the frout of her head, on which are set rosetteB of diamonds. This he put on himself after she was dressed to be married Captain Bernaud has never visited this country or seen his Americn relatives until he came here to be married. He and his bride spent Christmas in Georgetown, D. C., and sailed for Europe on Wednesday.

The price of admission will be 15 cents and rent of skates 25 cents an evening. In the morning from 10 to 12 admission will be free to ladies and children.

ASSIGNED.

Mr. John Paddock, the Boot aud Shoa Man. Makes an Assignment for the Benefit of His Creditors.

Mr. John Paddock, the boot and shoe man,'made an assignment, yesterday, to Mr. Philip Schloss, for the benefit of his creditors. He attributes his failure to the dullness of trade, and the large amount of bills he has been unable to collect. It is said that his assets will reach about $25,000, which will be sufficient to cover all indebtness. He makes preferences to the amount of $6,000. Mr. Wm. Mack will be his attorney. Every one will regret Mr. Paddock's misfortune, and hope that he will pull through all right.
