STRAY INFORMATION.

The supreme court of this state is BO far behind with its work that the condition ia attracting the attention of attorneys in all parts of the state. Some attorneys say that the court ia between three and four years behind the docket and that the new cases are gaining on the court. Others say th^*jt is about two and one-half years tfttllnd but all agree that the cases undisposed of are growing more numerous. The attorneys of lioganeport recently held a meeting to discuss the situation and we^e almost unanimously in favor of an appellate court for the relit-f of the supreme court. Not ooly is this the prevailing opinion in Logansport but in all parts of the state. It is commonly believed that the legislature will take some action to relieve the eupreme court —in fact it is believed that that body must do something in that direction ber cause the delay caused by the large number of cases virtually thwarts justice in appeal cases on account of the extreme delay in passing judgment. The attorneys of the state have called a meeting at Indianapolis for January 7tb, at which meeting it is expected that some recommendations to tbe legislature will be drafted.

The Logansport attorneys spoke strongly in favor of an appellate court. Some thought that the court should consist of five judges that the state should be one district, and that the legislature should determine at what cities the court should sit, and how long at each place also, in what classes of cases the decision of said court should be final. They opposed the revival of the commission on account of the commission not being responsible for decisions and, therefore, indifferent. They opposed an increase of the number of judges in the Supreme court because an amendment would have to be appended to the state constittuion for such an increase, and that would require too much time. They favored an appellate court because it appeared to meet the demands of other sta'eg and would, no doubt, prove equally beneficial in this state. The Logansport bar suggested that the legislature could and should determine by law what class of cases might be appealed from the appellate court to the supreme court and what class of cases should be disposed of finally in the appelate court.

Some of the attorneys here were seen by an EXPRESS representative and in part favored the appellnto court. Mr. John E. Lamb said that the appellate court would alleviate tbe embarrassment but had not given the question sufficient thought to determine whether or not it would be the best method of bridging the difficulty. He was of the opinion that the recommendations snggested by the Logansport bar would be very good, if not tbe best. Other attorneys thought that some such method should be employed to revive tbe present pressure and that cases which should not involvea given sum of money or its equal should be eliminated from those appealable to the Supreme court by law. This suggestion was offered upon the ground that unscrupulous lawyers would appeal small casas to the Supreme court for a very small fee and to get their names to appear in the Supreme court reports. The attorneys here have not held a meeting upon this question. Judge McNutt was aakod concerning the matter and ventured an opinion, although he had not thought of the question particularly. The judge thought that there should be no more intermediate courts, because the time required to get a final decision upon appealed cases is too long now, and the appellate court must be, in part, an intermediate court, because the cases which could not be appealed from it to the supreme court must be determined by law, and the cases which could not come within the jurisdiction of the supreme court must be likewise determined. Therefore, some cases would naturally go through both the appellate and the supreme courts. He was of the opinion, however, that something would have to be done, because the delay of securing justice was too great, and was growing. He spoke favorably of the reorganization of the commission—that of the temporary reorganization. He said that the commission, which consisted of one commissioner for ertch supreme judge, of whom there are five, had been tried for some years, and had brought the court up with the work, and that the number of cases had augmented since the expiration of the commission. He said, "I think the commission should be revived for a short time, say two years. That would afford time for a constitutional amendment to be passed. I am not certain that the commission would be strictly constitutional, but it has been tried, and, I suppose, could be tried again. As to the constitutional amendment, I think it should be to increase the number of judges on the supreme bench. I have not thought of the matter muoh but should think that the number of supreme judges should be increased to nine that one of them Bhould be the chief justice in fact that the remaining eight should be divided into two independent courts and that i.he chief justice should preside over each of these two courts. The decision of either of these courts should be final and should not be influenced by the opinion of the other nor should its decisions be qualified by the other. It seems to me that such a method would alleviate the pressure in the best manner because the commission would afford immediate relief. The two years would afford time to secure the constitutional amendment and the creation of another supreme court would be permanent relief. Yet one of them being chief justice and presiding over both courts would preserve the unanimity." "Do you think a meeting of attorneys here should or will be called?" "Yes, I think a meeting should be called and that it probably will be called, although I have heard nothing of such meeting yet."

Superintendent Dial), of the gas well, haB tested the confined pressure of the flow of artesian water from the well and found that within ten seconds after the test had begun the pressure rose to six-ty-five pounds. Preparations for a complete test had not been made and it wai let off at sixty-five pounds. The well now has two pipes in it, the outer pipe being the original outer casing of the well. The inner pipe was spread at the lower end so that itjgould barely slip down within the larger piping. In this way almost all of the water was made to enter the smaller pipe. Then a large leather bag made to completely surround the inner pipe was let down within the outer pipe until very near the bottom of the inner pipe. The bag was filled with flax seed and the water swelled the seed until the space about the inner pipe was almost closed. Then shot was poured into the

space about the inner pipe, also iron fil ings and sand. In this way the inner pipe was very firmly fastened and all water excluded from the space around the inner pipe. Iron straps will be extended from the inner to the outer pipe and riveted so that any teat may be safely made, let the pressure be ever ao great. When this is done the pressure of the earth against the larger pipe will be sufficient to resist any pressure that mav be brought to bear upon it. It was a surprise to the managers that the pressure should be so great within so short a time.

Two years'aao on Christmas day four young men of the north end organized themselves intA committee to see that all their associates in that part of town who should be sick on that or succeeding Christmas days should not be neglected, but remembered with something's the way of gift. This same four last Tuesday found their way to the home of Lawrence Kretz, exchief of the fire department, who has been sick for some time, taking with them copies of Milton, Shakespeare and Longfellow, handsomely bound, which they presented to him as a reminder that they knew how it was to be eick on Christmas day.

DESERTED WIFE AND BABE

For the Society of His Young »II1 Attractive Sister-In-Law. Special to the Commercial Gazette.

CRAWFORDSYILLE, Ind., December 30. —Qsite a sensational elopement that occurred east of here last night has come to light to-day. Wallace Peterman, who has for the past five years held a responsible position with the large dry goods house of Campbell Bros., in this city, eloped last night with his sister-in-law, Mies Pearl Freeman. Mies Freeman is not quite 18 years of age, and was still under the care of her guardian, who has 81,200 of her money. She is a very attractive- and pretty girl. Peterman is 25 years old, and was always considered quite a Sunday-school boy. He was mirried abont five years ago, his wife being some older than himself, and quite a plain woman. Since ttieir marriage, or for thr6e years paet, Miss Pearl has made her home'with her sister, as she had no other. About a month ago the wife caught her husband kissing Miss Pearl, and became very angry, but he assured her it was only a true brotherly affection he had for her, so the matter was patched up by the sister returning to her former country home with her guardian.

Last Thursday Mr. Peterson gave up his keyes to the store, as well as his position, stating that he was going to Canada, and left last night. To day it is learned that Miss Pearl joined him a few miles west of here, and that the two have skipped to parts unknown, leaving the broken hearted wife and young mother to mourn the loss of the wayward father and husband.

At a recent meeting of the American Ornithologists'union, Ernest E. Thompson, of Canada, said that some birds, especially sparrows, have ventriloquial powers. Birds, when surprised in the act of singing, will be silent for a moment, and then give forth a faint song that seems to come from a distance, though the singer be not further than ten feet away. Thrushes and robins, the lpcturer said, also have this power.

iZab) the borraife fisherman," who lived a lonely life near Stonington, Conn., has amassed a fortune of $50,000 from an annual incomft of from 8300 to $500, which he has made from his fishing boat during the past forty years. He started with a capital of $90, which he invested in a dory, and his annual expenses, food and all, have rarely been more than $25.

John M. Glover has been appointed postmaster at Judson. George Buchanan, who has been postmaster since Buchanan's administration, had to give up the office on account of ill health.

Mrs. Mary Teller, a pretty woman living at Spokane Falls, W. T., has been tried three times for murder, although she i^only 21 years old.
