How Aljont Free Vikos

The present law gives the people of Center township the right to vote on making the pikes free iu this township. Wl cannot the Board of Trade look after this matter at once. Free pikes leading into Greenfield would do more for this town than any manufacturing establishment that we are likely to secure soon. The toll roads leading into Greenfield practically prevents thousands of dollars each year from coming into this town. With free roads, Greenfield would soon become a trade and business center surpassed by few in the State, aud every one in the town and all persons trading here would be benefited thereby. Agitate the free pike question.

Two Peculiar I-Iogs.

Mr. Editor—Sir I have two of the greatest curiosities ever known in Brandy wine township. Two hogs one sow, 9 months old, which has six perfect feet, four in front and two behind. The small one comes out at the knee-joint on the front legs, and they have toe-nails as perfect as are on her other feet. The other is a pig two days old which has a nose resembling that of a fish's bill. There is no division between the nostrils,and when the mouth is shut, its snout is almost hid from view, and its chin resembles that of a monkey, broad and rounding. The same can be seen at my residence four miles south of Greenfield, Hancock county, Indiana.

Sante, was born near this city June 5th, 1868 was taken sick with Erysipelas, April 26,1889 and died May 3rd, 1889, aged 20 years, 10 months and 28 days.

Samuel DcWitt sivej\

Di r:n:—On Wednesday at 8 p. m., Samuel DeWitt, aged 4 years and months, the youngest child of DeWitt and Mary Sivey, died from cerebro spinal meningitis. He was taken sick at 6 a. m. of the day he died. The funeral services were conducted by Father Hugh Wilson, of the Presbyterian church, at the residence of Mr. Sivey at 3 p. m. yesterday. The interment was at the Old Cemetery. The pallbearers were Riley, Abijali, Charles and Will Davis, the first three were uncles aud the last a cousin of little DeWitt. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of the community in their severe loss. The little child was beautiful, bright, precocious and lovely. As he lay iu his little collin at the funeral fairly covered and imbedded in roses and other beautiful and sweetly scented (lowers it was a beautiful yet sorrowful sight and brought tears from many sympathizing eyes.

John Dudding's House Hurned.

On Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock the cry of "fire!" "fire!"' was heard, aud it was soon discovered that John Dudding's dwelling on Swope Street was on fire. By the time the hook and ladder company reached the scene the goods had about all been removed from the house, and the building was beyond saving. Other houses in the neighborhood were protected and Mr. D.'s house soon fell in. The fire originated near the kitchen fiue and probably burned for an hour before it was discovered, as the gas fire had been turned out by Mrs. Dudding after dinner. The alarm was given by Airs. Dudding and Simon Martin, who was just across the street painting, was the first on the scene. The kitchen roof and loft was all ablaze, but with a few men to have helped him, Mr. Martin could probably have put the fire out. When the force arrived the fire had too much headway. The house contained three rooms and a large closet or pantx-y adjoining the kitchen. The contents of this room and the kitchen were largely lost. The loss on contents is considerable, as Mr, Dudding only had $75 insurance on elie contents. Ou the house there was $350 insurance in the Northern Assurance Company of London, Eng. Mr. Dudding will probablo re-build at

Walnut Ki»- Gas Well.

The farmers in the vicinity of Walnut Ridge, just over in the edge of Rush county, have struck an A No. 1 gas well, at a depth of 891 feet. The blaze shot up to a distance of 30 feet or more. We congratulate the substantial fanners of the neighborhood who had the enterprise to drill a well for their own comfort and benefit.

White Caps in IJrown Township. Tuesday night at two o'clock the house of the Huffman's in Brown township was burned, also the barn. Two women and five children were thrown into the yard together with the household goods before the house was fired, and the night was spent under the trees. Th. mob claimed that two of the girls are of questionable character. The Huffman's on Tuesday had a lawsuit with a man by the name of Lockridge over the possession of the land they were on. It is indeed a bad piece of business that will be thoroughly investigated.

Some I^overs of Music—The Gilisiorc (and Concert at Indianapolis.

There was a large number of Greenlieldians attending the Gilmore Concert at Indianapolis Wednesday afternoon. They were Mrs. E. T. Swope, Mrs. D. B. Cooper, Will Cooper and wife.

Circuit Court Business.

Judge Study, of Rushville, is acting as Judge this week in the trial of causes in which Judge Martin was acting as counsel at the time of his election.

DR. COLE.

White Cloud's Chief Medicine Man Arrested on Monday.

Last Monday an indictment was returned against Dr. Cole who had charge of White Cloud's Medicine Troupe at this place for practicing medicine without a license. The Doctor did not stand trial but skipped the county. White Cloud himself was here Tuesday and made "big speech" Tusday night to the atteir1':!.^ palefaces and said he was arrested once and it cost the man $16,000. White Cloud failed to say just how much of the $16,000 he bagged. We have not learned just how much it will cost the authorities for getting after Dr. Cole but presume it will be less than $16,000. Dr. Edmunds, the medicine man who came to take the place of Dr. Cole, repaired to the County Clerk's office and secured a license for the practice of medicine as a starter. There is nothing like obeying the law. The troupe are holding forth every night opposite Brown's Riuk on Main street and it draws big crowds. There are very few purchasers of medicine however.
