They took him to Sheriff W. H. Pauley, who kept him over night gave him his breakfast and turned him out in the morning. He was much pleased with his treatment and said he thought Mr. Pauley run a mighty nice hotel. Some of the people about Philadelphia had become alarmed at his strange actions bnt there were no charges against him.

He is unbalanced in some way and acted queer but did not seem at all dangerous. He was and rapid and continuous talker. He said he was wearing his father's haj and the Initials J. L. Doll were found in it. The family live in Indianapolis and the boy started to walk home and the rate he was going as he left Greenfield would get him home in three hours.

Good horses in this County as else-where will begin to become scarce in a few years as their are not many yearlings or two yaars olds coming on. Farmers who have good stock should begin to raise colts again as the prices are bound to be higher. Under uo circumstances raise scrubs. Prices now range fox good horses frnm $50 to $100, very few at the latter price. Plugs from $25 to $50.

Ml'EKS ALIVE.

Dr. Cox is Head But Thomas Myers is Alive And

In

Ohio.

Last June a great sensation occured at Gem this county. Dr. T. A. Cox and F. A. Burnett reported that Thos. Myers, a fish monger, died there from typhoid fever. None of the neighbors were allowed to see him, but they claimed that they took him to Clifford, Ind., and buried him. When a representative of tie Order of Foresters of El wood, which was carrying $8 500 insurance on Myers' life in favor of CJX, went to Clifford to investigate, he found tha body missing. Cox claimed it had been stolen. As he and Bnrnett were accused of murdering Myers, Cox disappeared and only returned when about to die. His death occured this winttr at his old heme, Marietta, O., and Myers, it seems, came lo his uncles' funeral and has since remained about Marietta. The insurance on Cox's life wae not collected as he had let his dues lapse. Thus is settled one of last year(s great sensations.

Those going to Indianapolis today were: Chas. Vaughn, Gus Wagoner, Grant Gorman, Mrs. W. B. Cuyler and Mrs. Bnrdge.

Tbe entertainment to be given at the Presbyterian church en tomorrow evening by the members of the Blind Institute, will begin promptly at 7 o'clock to enable them to return to the city on the 9:45 train.
