SHORT CHANGE ARTIST AND TICKET SUPER
Taken Into Custody and Given Fine and Costs of $11.00—Had Been WTarned.
A short change artist and ticket scalper at the circus grounds Monday night was arrested and his fine and costs amounted to $11.00. When the circus came, Acting Mayor W. A. Hughes issued orders to the police to allow no ticket scalpers to operate their game on the grounds.
When the crowd began to gather in the evening a scalper began his work near the entrance to the show grounds, and Mr. Hughes was near when he sold a young man from the .country three tickets, charging sixty cents each. Mr. Hughes had a policeman to warn him to stop the practice, and the scalper was quite independent, saying he had bought the tickets to speculate on and would sell them at sixty cents if he pleased. The acting mayor ordered him arrested if he sold any more, and he was taken into custody later on a charge of provoke, and left $11 as a token of his visit to Greenfield.
It was evidently a surprise to the scalper to be interfered with in skinning the people, as it was the first instance we know of in the state where they were made to shut up shop and then pay a fine.

FOUR COUNTY HERALD, ONLY PAPER PUBLISHED ON RURAL ROUTE, COMBINED WITH
BROOKVILLE PAPER.
PAPER WAS FAR FAMED
Because of Its Uniqueness and the Quaint and Homely Sayings of the Editor in Short Paragraphs—Had a Large
Evchange List.
At last tre Amkrsonville Herald, which has be^n fnmed all over the United States as I cing the only paper which was published on a rural route, has passed out of existence, says the Rushville Republican. It has been bought by Editor Bridgeman, publisher and owner of the Brookville American, and will be combined with that paper at Brookville. The above was confirmed by the Rev. F. Wilson Kaler, the preacher-editor of the Four-County Herald, who was in the city today. It was first reported a few months ago that he had sold the paper, and it later developed that the plant had merely been leased to the Brookville American.

Barrett owning the other half.
Both young men are hustlers for business and have had business training and expe^nce. They will be active in the management of the business and work of the elevator and mill, and Mr. New's father, Andrew New, who has had over a quarter of a century's experience in milling and handling grain, will also be at the helm and do business with his old friends, who sold to and bought of him years ago. Mr. New is glad to get back into the business again, and says he thinks he will feel at home.
The new members of the firm took full charge of their departments today.
AGENT HET01ST0 GIVE UP MONEY
Adams Express Employee at Shelbyville, Who Made Getaway With $5,000 Returns and Pleads Guilty.
Bronson Walker, employed in the oflice of the Adams Express Company at Shelbyville, who recently made his getaway with $5,000 of the company's money,, has returned from Chicago and plead guilty before the Mayor to grand larceny.
He brought back with him $4,500 of the $5,000 he took. He has been sent to jail to await the action of the grand jury. He had been in Chicago since leaving Shelbyville, and succeeded in eluding the people who were searching for him.
He attributes his downfall to fast life in Chicago where he had visited, but ten days in that city produced a longing for home that he could not withstand.

SELLS OUT AT LUST FOUR YEAR OLD BOY
The Rev. Mr. Kaler's paper was knowrn in many parts of the United States on account of its uniqueness. His quaint sayings and homely wisdom in brief paragraphs won for him an audience of large scope, and his paper was known in many places by reason of the publicity it was given by metropolitan papers. Several New York papers were on his exchange list.

WILLIAM PAUL, FOUR YEAR OLD SON OF MR. AND MRS. JOHN BISER, SUFFERS BADLY
SHATTERED HIP.
MOTHER RAN TO BOY'S RESCUE
And Was Attacked and Severely Bruised By Heretofore Gentle Cow, Which Became Angry
At Dog—But Little Hope of Saving Boy's Leg. 1
A terrible accident occurred in the Curry's Chapel neighborhood on Thursday afternoon, when William Paul, the four year old son of Mr. and Mrs. John Biser, who live on the old William Taylor farm, was attacked by an angry cow and suffered a badly shattered hip, which leaves but little hope of saving the limb.
The cow has a calf, and had always been as gentle as a kitten, allowing the children to milk her and play about her feet. Thursday afternoon, Mrs. Biser turned the cow into the barn lot to get a drink, and the cow became enraged at a dog that barked at tier. The little child, William Paul, had followed his mother into the barn lot, and when the dog ran out of the cow's path she attacked the child, breaking its right thigh bone, near the joint before Mrs. Biser could run to its rescue. When she ran in and picked her son up, the cow turned on her and knocked her down inflicting some bad bruises, but no dangerous injuries.
Ed Trees, who was putting up hay in a nearby field, ran to the scene and when the cow saw hina come into the barn lot, she left her victims and ran back into the field opening into the barn lot!
A number of people gathered and the injured child and mother were taken to the house, and Drs. Milo Gibbs, of this city, and Trees, of Maxwell, were summoned. On account of the bone being shattered so close to the hip joint, the doctors were compelled to put the lower part of the child's body in a plaster of paris cast that extended down over the broken bones, and they have not promised that the child's limb can be saved on account of the nature and location of the break. They are doing all in their power, however, for both the child and its mother, and Mrs. Biser's injuries seem to be more in the nature of bruises, and the terrible nervous, shock. .1
