ADDITIONAL TODAY’S LOCAL HAPPENINGS.

See my 1% yard lengths in blues and greys as they are the swellest yet. TUTEUR. Dennis McNally, age thirty-five, a Lafayette blacksmith, is dead from injuries received when he was struck by a Wabash train Saturday night. Claude Dailey, a young farmer, was found dead by the side of a road over which he had started to drive home from Terre Haute. He had received a fatal blow on the head. * Francis M. Allen, of LaPorte, will leave this week for London, to claim a part of the estate of William Wellington Allen, a multimillionaire brewer, who died recently and whose principal heirs have been located in this country. James Sprigg, of Pleasant Grove, was in Chicago yesterday accompanied by his local surgeon. He is considerably better than he was before his operation of several months ago, but lately has been feeling poorly again and his trip to Chicago was for the purpose of having an X-ray photograph made, in order to try to locate his exact trouble. I guarantee all coat fronts to hold their shape, and will reline any .garment where the linings or trimmings do not give entire satisfaction. H. B. Tuteur. Lee Jessup has sold his cement block house on Division street, to Wallace Sayler, whose father, W. D. Sayler, will occupy it. Mr. Jessup and family will visit for a time in the west and he may decide upon a location there. He will store his household goods here and may decide to return here to again take up, his residence, although it is .probable owing to Mr. Jessup’s poor health that ; permanent home will be established in the west. Why pay $1.75 for flour when you can buy the best flour ntade—Aristos, Gem of the Valley, and Lord’s Best, for $1.50 a sack, at John Eger’s. Hartley Church arrived in Rensselaer Monday night to be present and testify yesterday before Master in Chancery Edward Daniels in the Cheadle-Hollingsworth suit. Mr. Church is engaged in private civil engineer work and is getting along very nicely. He is at Berkley, Cal., and reports that his wife and little son are enjoying the best of health. Mrs. Robert Parker and daughter Twonnett are at the home of Mrs. Mabie Templeton at St. Louis and they are also in very good health. Fancy Northern-grown sand Potatoes, for table or seed, in two and one half bushel sacks, at $1.25 a sack, at John Eger’s. The Ft. Wayne municipal lighting plant in the one year and three months of its existence has lost $29,000, according to the report of Expert Accountant H. O. Page, of Baltimore. The largest loss is lighting, it is declared. Mr. Page says the city sells its commercial current for 6.1 cents a kilowatt, while the cost of manufacture is 8 cents a kilowatt. By the presence of mind of Harley East, a farmer living several miles out of Bedford on the Southern Indiana railroad, in making known the finding of seven runaway cars yesterday, a passenger train was saved from being wrecked. Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, has evolved a plan to have the churches of the state observe “Tuberculosis Sunday,” April 24th. The plan, as adopted by a num-. ber of cities, is to have the ministers talk on the topic and to present explanations of ravages of consumption and best known methods of prevention. and cure. The day will be observed generally throughout the United States.

While there never has been any doubt that Hans Wagner would play with the Pittsburg team, a sigh of relief went up from the fans of that city yesterday when it was announced that the big shortstop had agreed to terms and would sign his contract Friday. Wagner will not go to West Baden with the team, but will join them at St. Louis for the southern trip. Miss Mary Harrah, known in some parts of the west as the "financial queen,” yesterday at Davenport, la., was acquitted of the charge of defrauding Mrs. Flora A. Evans of 82,000 in a land deal. Miss Harrah is credited with promotions involving thousands of dollars. . _'7X’
