The New Albany Ledger suggests that the offices of county commissioner and township trustee should be abolished. The Ledger would substitute "county judges who should have jurisdiction of county and probate business, something in order of the surrogate plan with some modifications. The schools should be managed by the superintendent and teachers, and the roads, bridges, etc., by the supervisors and a county road superintendent might be added with very great advantage to the roads." There is no longer any doubt, that the present system is wrong and dangerous in the extreme. The county commissioners can impose a burden of taxation on the people "without so much as saying by your leave." There is no such authority given to any other class of officials in .the country. The recent developments put bejond question the necessity of a change in law regarding the township trustees. The best remedy may be, as the Ledger thinks, the abolition of the offices. The powers of these officials at least must be curtailed.
The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette of yesterday makes an editorial explanation of the charges against United States District Attorney Lamb that appeared in the letter of "W.H. S.'^ast week. Tlieie is no retraction as to the.others named in disgraceful connection in the letter Lamb only is lifted out of the boat.
The Commercial Gazette says it was surprised when the local papers refrained from reproducing the article. The truth or the falsity of the charges had no weight with the Express in its refusal to print a mess of nastiness. Even if' true, and our esteemed contemporary, the. Evening Gazette, says part of it is, the letter should not have found place .in the columns of a respectable paper. Moreover, there are stronger points against the democratic rule in this district than can be found in the private lives of the lcijal leaders.
First of all, no one will dispute the statement that the changes made in the federal offices have been for the worse. We do not believe there is a democrat in the state acquainted with both men who will say that Lamb is the equal of Holstein, the ex-soldier and able lawyer, who was removed *to make room for him. So it is in each case, and those persons who are acquainted with the facts will admit as much,'and in time the people generally will be convinced that the changes were to the disadvantage of the public service.

IJPE COOPERS.—"How about twi trade in cooperage?" w# aabed yeffterdj^y of a leading employing ".Wei!, the demand for barrels is as good as at any time during the year, but it is not nearly as good as it should be at this season. I have my usual number of men employed, but were it not for a foreign call for barrels, which has just come in, I doubt if I could run with a full number of hands, or at least run on full time.^ The mills here—of course, with exceptions—are running very light. This is a fact and this of necessity affects our trade. It is not with the coo{/t rs as it is with other manufacturers. We^cannot make barrels in anticipation of orders it only pays us to run our shops when we have the orderi booked and can at once get tile manufactured stock off our hands. I shall keep my present number of men employed as long as. such a course is justified by .a demand for our work.'-

APOLOGY TO LAMB.
The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette Editorially Corrects the Statements of its Correspondent "W. H. S." About the
Ex-Congressman. Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. An Indianapolis letter in this paper of Saturday, referring to democratic disagreements and political affairs generally in the Eighth or Terre Haute district, contained reflections upon ex-Congress man Lamb, who is now United States district attorney, for the state of Indiana, that surprised Ob. Mr. Lamb, we were .aware, had represented his district well and respectably in congress he had in the election ran ahead of his ticket, and we were led to ask ourselves the question how this could have happened if he was socially as bad .as Terre Haute democrats repre sen-ted Kim to be, and this question was made still more difficult of solution when we reflected that local papers, both democratic and republican, refrained from making publications on the subjret. Our correspondent was perfectly honest in printing what he heard from democrats,
No doubt about-that. The explanation seems to lie in the fact that the distribution of patronage in the Terre Haute district caused a serious disturbance in the democratic party, snd so far as we know the scandalous reports maybe traceable to the violation ef or disregard of civil service rules that if observed would have retained the services of trained and tried republican officials. At any rate, at this stage of the proceedings, and in the light of our former knowledge of Mr. Lamb, we are not prepared to accept as evidence the reports
01
disappointed democrats
that were furnished to the public through the medium of our correspondent. In regard to the conduct of officials, whether democrats or republicans, that effect the public interest, it is our duty to criticise impartially and even severely, but beyond this it is not the province of a public journal to go. Meantime' it due to Mr. Lamb to say that he is entitled to respect and confidence until it shall be fully shown by his neighbors and associates, who know him best and a're not influenced by political disappointments, that he has done something as an officer to forfeit the gocd opinion of the community in which he resides. The Commercial Gazette will be prompt to expose anything that may ba wrong within the limits of that field which is legitimate, but at the same time we trust we shall always be careful to ba just.' Mr. Lamb's life heretofore dors not justify what has been said, and we have reason to believe that great injustice has been done him,
A POSTHUMOUS CHILD.
Sensational Will Case in MassachusettsHow He Found His Fortune—Providentially Protected—She Will Seek Another Heir.
BOSTON, Mass., September 30.—A story of real life, recalling the fictitious plot of Charles Eeade's "Griffith Gaunt," is brought to public notice by a lawsuit now before the Supreme court. George Phipps, a wealthy resident of Framingham, died in 1876. He left a son, George H. Phipps, who was then unmarried, was the dearest wish of the father's heart that the family name should be continued through the son. He, therefore, in his will made a bequest of $26,000, of which the son was to nave the income, and the principal of which, in case he had issue was to go to his child. In case he died without children, the money was -to fee divided among a large number of the testator's children, who live in Framingham and other parts of the country. George P. Metcalf, jr., was made trustee for these heirs. In 1879, three years after his father's death, George H. Phipps was married to a pretty woman ten years younger than himself. He was then about 40. After their marriage the couple lived in Medford. They had no children, it is said, to the disappointment
01
Mrs. Phipps.
Finally, in December, 1882, Mr. Phipps died, after three years of wedded life. There being no children, by the terms of the will Mrs. Phipps received nothing, To the surprise of the heirs, however, about eight months after her husband's death Mfs. Phipps presented to the world a posthumous child, which was born August 7, 1884. This child, a girl, was named Grace Montville Phipps. She lived but six months, and Mr. -John Hubert was appointed administrator of her estate. Of course if she w^re George Phipps' child under the terms of the will she inherited the $26,000, and at her death the money came into her mother's possession.
The heirs, however, claim that Grace Montville was not Mr. Phipps' daughter, and even deny that she is the daughter of Mrs. Phipps at all. Conspiracy and counter conspiracy are charged. .The eight heirs claim tbat the child is either illegitimate or supposititious. They urge that it is said to have been born in a secluded place svmewhere on the outskirts of the city,*ana that no sufficient proof is given that it is Mrs. Phipps' husband's child. Mrs. Phipps' on the other hand, charged the heirs with conspiracy to prove

Ekninent couricsel have beenemplayed on both sidesaad in legil terms a bill of interpleader has been brought by trustee Metcalf to determine to whom the $26,000 in his possession belongs.
The ease came up before the court today on the application of the administrator to have the ease sent to a jury and for the framing of issues for such-a triaL Mr. Gale, counsel for the Framingham heirs, opposed the granting of "this motion, claiming that it was a matter within the discretion of the court, and that it could be as fully and thoroughly tried by the court as a-jury. Mr. Gale stated that the evidence would be largely that of medical experts. The court has taken the matter under advisement. The case excites the greatest interest, the charges made being of such a serious and sensational nature.

A Horrible Affair.
RICHMOND, Ind., September 30.—Last evening a shooting affray .occurred south af Canterville, which is of more than ordinary interest on account of the family standing of the parties and surrounding circumstances. The -Rencks are the second wealthiest farmers in this county, arid when the old man died, a year or so ago, he left $10,000 in cash and 1,500 acres of fine land to -be divided. Among the heirs were two sons, Jefferson Renck, aged about thirty-five, and George W. Kenck, aged about forty. Under the will the homestead was left to a sister, and the two brothers drew lots to decide which of them should live there with her. Jefferson was the lucky one, and his success angered-George considerably. George tried to buy or trade for the home place, and being unsuccessful in the dicker, accused Jeff of defeating his plans, and a very bitter feeling arose between the brothers. The beautiful house on the home-place was recently bum'ed, and only a few weeks later the barn, one of the largest and finest in the state, was reduced to ashes, both fires being the work of an incendiary. Suspicion- was directed to George as the fire bug, and he was before the grand jury, which- failed to find a bill, though the evidence was strongly circumstantial. After the grand jury had adjourned the large farm scales, costing nearly two thousand dollars, were destroyed on Jeff 's place, aud he is said to have accused his brother of the trespass.
Among other property' In dispute is a certain corn Held claimed by both brothers. Last evening George Renck drove into this field, and began pulling corn. As he had but two sacks with him it is believed he did this as a test to see what steps Jeff would take against him. He had not been in the field but for a.few minutes when a pistol was fired. Renck did not pay much attention to this, but five minutes later both barrels of a shot-gun were discharged from a fence corner thirty feet distant, and George fell to the ground riddled with shot fromv his knees to hii chin. -The wounded man managed to reach his sister's house and was found to be seriously, if not dangerously, hurt He said that his attempted murderer was his brother Jefferson, whom he had seen fire the pistol and the gun, and word being sent to this city Jefferson Renck was lodged in jail this morning. He refused to talk to a Times reporter, only saying that he was presumed to know nothing of the shooting. As the crime was committed in Fayetter eounty, the trial will probably take place there.
The parties are so well'known and wealthy that the affair has made the big gest sensation of any in the county for years.
BREAKBONE FEVER.
A Terrible State of Aflkirs in. Brenham and Palestine, Texas. BBENHAM, Tex,, September 30.—Bren ham is in a very serious condition, The dengue fever has taken the town. If it continu:i its ravages much longer husinets will be somewhat interfered with, In one house visited to-day every member of the family was found down with the disease except the father and a little girl. Even the ntirse who came take care of the' sick is down and the .whole family dependent upon an old man for attention A store was visited and the proprietor found to be sick, while his wife is trying to run his business. A well-to-do lady was found at her house prostrated .in bed, alone, nnable to help herself. Her servant had gone home sick. This is a slight picture of the condition of many families in Brenham. No servants or help can be hired, because all the black people are in the country picking cotton, and we have no other system of domestic service, excepting an occasional foreign servant. The suffering of the sick is in tense, but up to this time none have died. So far as the suffering of those stricken down is concerned—growing out of the want of proper attention good nursing, etc.—the situation is worse than in Memphis in 1879. In Memphii the Howards were to be seen everywhere day and night, like angels of mercy, lighting up the epidemic gloom, while here there are no Howards, and those that are well studiously avoid the houses of the sick, hoping to escape the contagion, while a great majority of the religious people are conspicuous for their absence from the homes of the suffering.
PALESTINE, Tex., September 29 Dengue still prevails, and some of the cases have terminated fatally. Five of our physicians have been prostrated with it, and your regular correspondent has it now very bad. Nearly all the printers in the two offices here are down with the disease, and as this includes the editors, it leaves the papers in a bad fix.

It way be that I the session will be quiet, but the indications are that it will be, extremely lively, "Unless the democrats sulk there will be some pretty lively scenes in the house over direct and indirect indorsement of the administration. A number of democratic members have already annouueed shat they propose to act independently upon all subjects looking toward an indorsement of Mr. Cleveland's cabinet There is no longer any question about the intention of republican senators to inquire into the character of
nominations that have been mad& and the causes leading to the removal 01 men who filled the places previous to democratic appointments. This will alone insure some activity, while financial subiects in the house will guarantee some )risk movements there. Nothing is expected to arise in the house to attract attention throughout the country before March or April, when the important measures will have come up from the committees, and appropriation billswill begin to appear. In the senate skirmishing will begin immediately'after the holidays.

Allen, Wlnterpock, Va., writes: "My youngest child, two years of age, was taken with Bowel Complaint, which we could not cure.
