The Ice Factory.
Greenfield's new ice factory is now in full operation, and a complete success. A very fine article of clear, clean ice is being turned out. The machinery is all new, first-class, anr? of the latest designs. The water is put in zinc vessels and the freezing process produced by ammonia gas being carried through pipes in contact with the vessels. It took forty hours to freeze the first ice, as all the tanks were filled and frozen at the same time. Hereafter a block will be lifted every fifteen minutes. The factory runs night and day so as to lose no coldness. The factory is a good thing. Patronize it.
Decoration Day at New Palestine.
Decoration Day will be observed as usual at New Palestine, under the auspices of the C. A. Kirkoff Post, G. A. R. Program will consist of the ritual service, speeches, songs and music, decorating the soldiers' graves by the children. We respectively invite the New Palestine Lodge K. of P., and other Knights that wish to attend and the citizens to lay aside their busy care of life, and turn out and witness the children decorate the graves of those comrades who helped carry the flag of our country to victory. They have been mustered out and have gone to answer roll-call beyond the River.
COMMITTEE.
Wilkinson Toll-House Burned.
The toll-gate on the Warrington and Knightstown turn-pike, adjoining the uorthern limits of Wilkinson, was burned at an early hour last Sunday morning. The gas-house and regulator near by, belonging to the Wilkinson Gas Company, was likewise consumed. The entire town had to cook breakfast with wood fires. It was the work of an incendiary. Loss *{250 no insurance. The road recently elected new officers, and as it is the only toll-road in the county, they propose to collect toll. There are some cases in court now over the status of the road.
The Barbers' Union.
The barbers of our city have entered into the following agreement which explains itself:
GREENFIELD, MAY 19, 1891:—This is to certify that the barbers of Greenfield are to close their shops at eight o'clock p. m. each evening, except Saturday night, when they will remain open until 12 o'clock midnight.

The Hartley Industrial School for Girls.
Industrial schools for girls are an acknowledged necessity and have been more or less successfully established in many States. The State of Indiana has never established such an institution, but the W. C. T. U. of Indiana has had a valuable farm donated for the purpose, and will solicit the citizens of the State for money to erect the building. The undersigned is one of the authorized solicitors, and will solicit in city and county, without respect of persons, sects or parties, as it is in the interest of the whole State. The farm on which the home will be built is situated near Hadley station, it contains 110 acres of good land. The man who gave it has only 60 acres left, he and his wife are life long workers and practical christians. The undersigned has collected $29 in Greenfield and leaves Miss Alice Carter to complete the canvass. To all who have favored the cause by their donations, may blessings be multiplied.

Handicap Race of C/clera.
The talk among wheelmen now is about the five-mile handicap race for three goldmedal prizes which will take place on the pike between Cumberland and Greenfield, with the finish at Greenfield. The entries thus far are Ellis Hunter, Thomas Hay, George Dickson, A. Koerner, George Lazarus, Clark Tuttle, Walter Ribble, Bert Willitts, Edward Eads and George York, with II. T. Hearsey and W. G. Hunter as judges and Frank L. Bingham and Herman Weinberger as timers. These and a number of others who will enter are now in training, riding hard every day, and as the rivalry is strong it is likely the best time ever made over the road will be brought out in this contest. Hereafter this road race will be an annual event, to take place en each recurring Decoration day. Fifty or more ladies and gentlemen will take their wheels over on the train to Greenfield, hold a picnic, witness the finish of the race, and ride back on their cycles in the evening, a pretty run of twenty miles. Others will accompany the racers. There will also be wheelmen present from Coanersville, Knightstown, Rushville, Shelby ville and other neighboring places, and a pleasant ,e is expected.—Indianapolis Journal.
THE GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, FRIDAY, MAT 22, 1891.
Items of Interest from the Tempie of Justice. County Treasurer Barnard settled with the State Treasurer Tuesday, paying in $15,763.39, and getting in return $9,518.22. Hancock pays in about $5,000 or $6,000 more than she gets back. We have evidently more wealth than children.
The delinquent taxes from the city of Greenfield are coming in quite rapidly. Collections will not be made from the farmers until after harvest, then look out.
AUDITORS OFFICE.
The Commissioners court meets the first Monday in June. The first business in order will be the election of a county assesor. The names of G.W. Parker, P. J. Bohn, Wm. M. Lewis and H. C. Garriott and others have been mentioned for the position. The officers name will probably be George Washington Parker. The office is for four years' work limited to sixty days each year at $3.00 per day.
The probability is the county tax levy will be lowered, but taxes will have to be greater than at present,for several reasons. The amount of the levies for county purposes has heretofore not been sufficient to pay expenses, and the commissioners have been compelled to borrow money, and pay considerable interest. The levy will surely have to be high enough to raise enough money to pay expenses. The State levy was raised from 12 to IS cents and as the tax duplicate will be increased at least one third, State taxes are just exactly doubled. The levy for school and endowment purpos3s is 1Q}4 cents on the $100. so that with the increased duplicate it will be per cent higher than last year. The fact is very apparent that taxes are high, but they are going to be higher.
CIRCUIT COURT.
Judge Wm. R. Hough was appointed by Judge Martin to try the case of Emma Moore vs the estate of Benjamin Reeves, in which $728. was involved.
In the case of Charles E. Leaman of Charlottesville vs the C. St. L. & P. R. R. Co., who was injured in the Raysville wreck a year ago, the plantiff secured a judgment for $3,000. His attorneys were Offutt & Black and Marsh & Cook.
Marion Steele also received a judgment against the C. St. L. & P. R. R. Co. for $90.00 damages on account of stock damaging some of his corn along their line of road. Marsh & Cook were hi* attorneys. The rail road was represented in each case by Atty. no. L. Roup, of Richmond, and Hough & Hough of this city.
In the case of John Prince who was sueing for a divorce the Judge refused to grant the same.
On Tuesday in the case of Oscar Reese of Charlottesville against the C. St. L. & P., R. R., for damages for injuries in Raysville wreck, taken to Newcastle on a change of venue, a judgment was secured for $1800. HG was represented by Offutt & Black and Marsh & Cook.
