Several physicians practicing in Hancock county have been indicted by the grand jury for failing to make proper death reports. Drs. McCray & Hess of this place are in it.—Morristown Sun.

All persons owing me, will please call and settle their accounts at once, as I am in need of money W. I. GARRIOTT. 49tf. Warrington, Ind.

The Cleveland men intended to do great things in the Democratic State Convention but th^y got left. Hancock Countys delegates were largely in favor of the Cleveland program and so were the head pushers who went along, but Stokes Jackson was an ardent Gray boomer and succeeded in landing the Gray slate right along. The Gray men got their nominee for Governor, the best of the resolutions and the big majority of the delegates to Chicago, while the Cleveland boomers got "hooks." C. S. Offutt, Eph Marsh, Chas. Downing and other Cleveland supporters are not jubilant over the convention, while Stokes Jackson editor Wm, Mitchell and the Gray men are delighted.
