Tlie Coroner 1 nvp-stv,alius tlie Jeatli of Ciias. Shaiier, of Fort vine.
The coroner, Dr. J. FI. Justice is at Fortville today to take up and examine the body of Charles Slnff»-r who WMS found de.'icl on the side walk near Roberts & Eakes' livery birrs on the morning of Dec. 7th, He was found by Elam E ikes, Frank Duz in and Frank Jarrett.
Shaffer was a saloon keeper aud a hard drinker and when the cofouer investigated the case at that time he pronounced that deith came from heart failure caused by the excessive use of alcohol and not by any means of violence ou the part of anyone. The citizens of Fortville were not satisfied aud hired a detective to investigate, the case. They now think that Shaffer was killed for the purpose of robbery and died from his neck being broken.
Shaffer was a man 39 years old, 5 feet and 5 inches in height and would weigh about 200 pounds. He was in good health up to the time of his death and much surprise was caused among his friends by his being found dead. The coroner will make a thorough investigation today. The grandjury examined a number of witnesses in the case at their recent session.

Obituary.
Jemima Caroline, dau^hler of L^wis aud Eb'za Tyner. was born iu Greenfield, Ind. Feb. Grh 1832. Died Feb. 20ih i8!)6. Age 64 years aud 14 days. She was married to Agustus Dennis in the yevir 18-17. To them were born seven children, five daughters aud two soii3. Two of the daughters and the two sons have preceded her to the Spirit world. The husbaud and three of the daughters yet survive. She was well and truly converted to God at. Giiboa M. E church in the year 18G1, living in this chu-ch for -ibout 20 years at which time the church membership weut down and she and her husband moved their membership to Western Grove Friends church. Since her first counec tion with the church she had lived as near a consecrated christian life as possible mortals to live. While her afflictions for toe past five years have been great, she bore them with great fortitude, and when she saw that the tirae was near at hand for her to leave this world of sorrow, she not only manifested a willingness, but was anxious to go, and was trying to be patient until the Lord would take er. At the last moments, nst before the breath was leaving her, sfie exclaimed that there would soon be sweet rest for her, over there, and said to her family the Lord would bless them. The funeral services occured at the M. E. church Sunday last being conducted by Rev. M. E. Nethercut of this city and Rev. J. O. Binford of Knightstown. After which the remains were laid to rest in Park Cemetery.
TheW, B. C. and G. A. B. Bean Supper. The Womans Relief Corps gave a bean supper last night to the G. A. R. and their families at the G. A. R. Hall in honor of Mr. John Davis, a member of the Post who is going to move from this city to near Charlottesville. A large and jolly crowd was present and after filling up on beans the fun began and the evening was spent in playing games and listening to the excellent music given by Mrs. Elbert Tyner and others. Rev. Gard, of the Christian Church, was present and gave an address. The evening was ended with a cake walk aud the evolutions and revolutions gone through by the old soldiers were great until cautioned by R. A. Black that they were in danger of losing their pensions on account of exhibiting too much agility, as Hoke Smith had a detective iu town with a pocket kodak.
The committee, consisting of George Duncan and Dr. King, awarded the cake to W. A. J. Ross and Mrs. Nathan Meek.
The Hoosier Evangelist, John T. Hatfield, 11 Scottsburg.
Scottsburg, Ind., February 28.— What promises to be one of the greatest revivals ever held in this town began a few nights ago in the Methodist church, under the charge of Rev. T. J. Jones, the local pastor, and the Rev. J. T. Hatfield, of Greenfield, known as the Hoosier evangelist. Services are held every night and afternoon, and the large church is inadequate to hold the great crowds who flock to hear the sermons.
At the beginingof the meetings, Mr. Hatfleld was very unpopular with the members of the congregation, and much opposition was encountered, owing to his plain speech and unrelenting
