AT Danville yosterJay the jury after being out two hours brought in a verdict which found Re v. W. E. Hiushaw guilty of murder in the second degred and sentenced him to the penetentiary for life. The verdict meets the public approval.

THE Republican State Committee has reopened its headquarters at No. 17 Journal Building, -Indianapolis, and Chairman, Gowdy and Secretary, Seeds, will. be found there daily from now on. Republicans and those expecting to afliliate with them are invited to call, when in the Capital City and are assured of a hearty welcome.

TOMOKUOW the Board of Commissioners meet to select an architect aid plans for a new court house for Hancock county. It is neccessary above all things to have an honest architect. Zso matter how competent he may it na. is dishonest he wiii stand in with the contractors and dump the tax payers. The only joVs we have had in tlie county were the Couutv FMHH House •crd the

Jail. The first- cost a great deal too much

and the nil over twice the contract price. This was made possible by dishonestarchitects. We are iu favor of a new court house, but the people must be protected and get -.he worth of their money by having an honest aud competent architect look ai'trr their interests. There are honest architects. Let the Commissioners select one without fail.

JUSTICE is proverbially spoken ot a blind, but on. Wednesday she jichieved two notable victories. At Danville the jury, after being out two hours, brought iu a verdict which found Rev. W. E. Hiushaw guilty of murder iu the second degree for killing his wife, Thurza, and sentenced him to the penitentiary for life. Tr verdict was somewhat unexpected, for although thepeople were practically unanimously of the opinion tnat he was guilty, yel it was impossible to bring direct proof to that effect, as all the proof brought out was circumstantial. Byiliis conviction, however, the ends of justice have been met, as he was certainlyguilty.

The other case where justice and right prevailed was the successful effort of Gov. Charles Culbertson, of Texas, to prevent the Corbett-Fitzsimmon? prize fight in Texas. After the manager of the fight had secured a decision from the courts which said there was no law under which the fight could be prevented Gov. Culbertson called the legislatura together in special session, and Wednesday they passed a la which absolutely prohibits prize fighting and makes it a penitentiary offense. There were only six dissenting votes iu the legislature. It is a great victory for Culbertson. The law and order people rejoice and the good name of tne state will be preserved. Good government, law and order are bound to prevail in this country. The wide-open, lawless element might as well make up their minds to that effect.

There is more Catarrh iu this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed IOCBI remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment pronounced it incurable. Science has proven cattarrli to be a constitutional treatment disease and there fore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrah Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitional cure on the market. It is taken internally iu doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful, It acts directly on the blood and mucous surface of the system. They offer one hundrei dollars for any cas it fails to cure.

OH, MARGARET!

Why Did You Strike Your Husband With it lUifr^y Whip ^MILWAUKEE, Oct. 3.—Mrs. Gustav Pabst, formerly Margaret Mather, the actress, created a sensation near their home at Twenty-ninth and Cedar streets yesterday afternoon by striking her husband, a son of the wealthy brewer, several tin: ,s v.'itli a lior.sewhip. What was the cause of the trouble no one seems to know, but numerous residents in the vicinity were eyewitnesses to the altercation, which began ill a buggy in which the couple were riding, a lid which ended at the corner of Twenty-fourth and State streets, where Mr. Pabst •wrenched the whip from his wife's hand as the latter struck him a blow full in the face.

Mr. and Mrs. Pabst were driving along Twenty-seventh street about noon, when suddenly, just as they were about to turn iulo Cedar street toward tneir home, Mrs. Pabst grabbed tin whip from the socket, and doubling it, struck Mr. IVo'-t full in rho fiice. Mr. PaLwt jumped out oi the buggy and started down t-iio street. The lady drove the horse to a post, hitched it and followed her husband, overtaking him a block away, where she struck him four timss iu tlie face. Young Pabst then wrenched tne Vv aip from her hand and throw it away. But the one-sided bar tie was by uo means ended, for she then clenched her ust and planted a blow from tun shoulder square on iii.s nose. Then Ah-. Pabst moved on at a rapid pace, the ladv following. The affair took place in a, fashionable part of the city, and was witnessed by a large number of people. J^Gu.-jfav Pabst and Margaret Mather were marriod in Kmioska November, l-Sitt, but the wedding was kept a secret for several months creating a great, sensation when it iinuiiy became known. The bride soon after left the stage and has since lived quietly with her husband iu his city.

Friends of the couple gave no explanation lor the trouble, and Mr. Pabst has not been found since the encounter,

In a few minutes the imes had spread to such an extent that the idea of saving the contents was despaired of and all efforts were directed toward saving the adjoining buik'ings. which comprise tho block, but owing to the inefficiency of the fire department and the scarcity of water, the lire spread fast.

Help was telegraphed for from different places and the department from Glouster arrived at

The Banner of Light is, as every one knows,one of the most successful denominational publications issued iu this couutry.

Iu its 77th volume it is at once conservative nud bright, discussing not only modern Spiritualism, but frequently lending its influence fearlessly in matters of public imp rt-.iuce outside its principal field.

Mr. John W. Day, who is the editor and one o' the proprietors, writes in The Banner of Light as follows to the proprietors of Paine's celery compound: 'T owe you a debt of gratitude in placing OH the market such a nerve-easing aud and soothing remedy as Fairies' celery compound. It was brought to my notice by a frieud who had himself been greatly relieved by its use, as I have also been. "I have frequently taken occasion to commend Paine's celery compound to others, and I do not know an instance wherein, if faithfully tried, it has uot worked a benefit. "Yours truly, John W.Day."

ROMANCE

is made for that multitude of people who love stories in the good old sense of the word—not merely "studies in character," nor "stories with a purpose," nor "mosaics of style," but, first of all, stories that are good stories, full of life and vigor and action—the sort of thing that arrests the reader's attention at the start and engrosses it to the end.

ROMANCE

has printed stories by Robert Louis S so a E W in yard Kipling, Alphonse Daudet, Frances Hodgson Burnetc, A. Conan Doyle, Octave Thauet, Erckmann Chatrian, Moritz Jokai, Leo N. Tolstoi and a host of other famous writers of all lands. It is edited by the well-known writer, Mrs. Kate Upson Clark, and will publish during 1895 a series illustrating different varieties of the short story, which possess a distinctive charm.

Mr. Day's portrait is given above. He is a member of the Masonic, O ld Fellows Grand Army and ot'-er fraternal organizations, and is highly tsteemed by his brethern aud others in the social walks of life.

His gratitude for the good that this greatest of remedies has done him is in no sense remarkable. Thousands who have been made well by Paine's celery compound have sent their unsoclicitedtestirnenials tothe'proprietorsof the remedy or direst to medical journals or uewspapers telling for the benefit of others the results that followed the use of the remedy that is food for the nerves and brain, that enriches the blood, that make the weak strong, and is the one nervefailing specific, prescribed by physicians and recommended by all who have ever faithfully used it, for insomnia, nervous debility, neuralgia, rheumatism, indigestion and the many ills that come from de. ranged, worn-out nerves and impure blood.
