The case of White vs. Thomas for $10,000 for alienating the affections of Mrs. White, came up for trial Monday afternoon. Senator Newby, of Knightstown, is assisting R. A. Black. The plaintiff introduced a great many witnesses and considerable damaging testimony was deyeloped. There has been some very indiscrete conduct ©n the part of some of the interested parties. Though much of the evidence would make very ''interesting readin'" for some people, still there is some of it that should not be published. If husbands would give more attention to their wives, and wives give moie attention to their husbands, there would be less ground for slander and damage suits.

Mr. Gibson'sTslk on Architecture. Saturday night Louis H. Gibsen, of Indianapolis, the architect of the new Masonic Temple, gave a most interesting talk on "Architecture" at the home of Ephraim Marsh on N. State street. The talk was given before the Woman's Club and a number of invited guests. Mr. Gibson began with the earliest known styles of architecture and then spoke of the various styles in a general way down to the present time. He spoke of "Architecture" as exemplyfing the character ot a Nation or a people. America has as yet no distinct or marked style of architecture. As yet we are a composite- people with varied character, customs aEd tastes. The characteristic American architecture is to be developed later, and it is the desire of Mr. Gibson aud all truly gifted architects, to see the minds of the American people developed along those lines that will make our homes beautiful and convenient, a source of joy, inspiration and pleasure, and thoroughly harmonizing with both man and nature. The talk was an inspiring one, aud thoroughly eojoyed by those present, who all wished they had the time, the money and capacity to build and an joy an ideal home. Several hundred pictures were shown that gave an excellent idea of European architecture. Another talk from Mr. Gibson would be enjoyed by his former hearers,

the NORTHWEST
a complete life of General Indiana. Complete in
Hon. Wm
H. English, of Indlanapo(l£
Is certainly deserving of the highest com* mendatlon for hla action in withdrawing from public life several years ago in oril«Cb to devote himself to the task of writing A history of Indiana, the Introduction dv which Is now appearing In two voliumj under the title of "CONQUEST OF TH» NORTHWEST/' He 1ST a millionaire and It is therefore unreasonable to pose that his work along historical line# was animated by any spirit of selfishness or sordldness. No other nian is so well, equipped for the task he self-Imposed. He has been a conspicuous figure In Indiana almost continuously since It wa* admitted to Statehood He was secretary of the Constitutional Convention, and. bl» personality Is strongly marked in the orEanio law as well as In much of subsequent legislation. His great wealth has afforded him opportunities for devoting his entire attention to literary labor. HW Intimacy with public men and State an# Federal officials, has given him exceptiott*1 facilities for gaining access to docn* tnents necessary to Insure thorougnn««» And exactness in the preparation of h» history. After several years of ardent devotion and labor, undertaken in a spirit mt Stiifo rvrlde and for pure love of it, the publication of "THE CONQUEST OP THE NORTHWEST" will cause him to be kindly remembered as an Indianlai* whose motives have been often
m^conr*
atrued, and whose real worth as a mjUB and citizen has been often ignored by unreasonable political bi&9 Mid human BAj ture's Inherent prejudice against men Of immense wealth.—Lafayette ^Courier.
