Would le a Great Improvement. EDITOR REPUBLICAN:—Perhaps there is no improvement which the city council could order that would be of greater importance than the laying of a brick walk from the corner of Dr. Judkins' office to the depot. This is really the only street leading to the station and during the kind of weather we had last week it is almost impassible. The immediate attention of the council to this matter would be considered a great blessing to every one.

Court Notes.

Mrs. Mary L. Rice, of New Palestine, was granted a divorce from Benj. F. Rice and allowed SjKioO alimony.

Hon. Eugene Bundy, of New Castle,was holding court Tuesday and Wednesday in cases in which Judge Martin was interested as an attorney.

The case of the State vs. J. Patterson for illegal voting in "the November election of 1884 was continued until next term of court on account of a witness for the State, John C. Shoemaker, being sick and unable to attend the trial.

The case of the Richardson Drug Co. vs. Elijah B. Grose el. al. was continued until the next term of court.

He Signed tlie Note.

A stranger called upon a farmer living near Eureka a few days ago representing that he would introduce a machine this fall for cutting corn and shocking it. He then produced a pin eight inches long with a double eye, which, by extra twist of the wrist, would tie with a cord the shock of corn in fine shape. He gave the farmer one and agreed to allow him and his boys to run the machine and make lots of money. Then, of course a receipt was signed, large letters showing one needle free. The small letters underneath proved to be an order for one gross and an agreement to pay $286. The farmer has the needles and the note is in the bank. The case will be placed in the hands of an attorney and contested.—Frankfort Times.
