OF

.Many Attended the Funeral of Elijah Hunt at Westland, in Charge of the Grand

Army of Republic

Elijah Hunt, a veteran of the Civil War, was buried Sunday at Westland, in honors of war, by the Grand Army Post of this city. The body was taken from the home on Broadway at 8 o'clock, the funeral cortege going to Westland church. There were about fifteen members of the Grand Army present, and they gave their ritualistic funeral service at the church. Jeffries' four-horse hack was secured to convey the old soldiers to the church. The funeral was largely attended by the old neighbors there of Mr. Hunt, who was loved and respected by all who knew him.

DUMPED A CARCASS INTO SIX-MILE CREEK.

Farmers South of Shirley Aroused and Prosecutions May Follow Dastardly Act—Carcass in Stream a Week.

The ire of farmers below town is greatly aroused, and rightly, too, over the dastardly act of someone throwing the carcass of a horse in six-mile ditch where the stream crosses the county line road, says the Shirley News. The animal had been skinned and is a grewsome sight in full view of travelers as they pass the place where it lies in the water.

The carcass was thrown into the stream sometime Thursday night of last week and was evidently dumped from a wagon, as blood spots can be seen on the floor and banister of the bridge. The men who have the contract for building the county line road were here last week prospecting for gravel, and it is reported they met a wagon on which was a dead horse, and while it was after nightfall and they did not recognize the driver, it is said, they have a fair description of the team. The authorities were notified and an investigation is being made and an arrest may be made at any time.

The carcass has now^been in the stream over a week and unless soon disposed of will cause an awful stench, making it dangerous to health. One man is reported to have taken a drink from the stream a short distance below the bridge. Farmers are keeping their stock from the fields, not wanting them to drink from the stream.

Why He Was Late.

"What made you so late?" "I met Smithson." "Well, that is no reason why you should be 'an hour late getting home to supper." "I know, but I asked him how he was feeling, and he insisted on telling me about his stomach trouble." "Did you tell him to take Chamberlain's Tablets?" "Sure, that is what he needs.

Mrs. J. A. Rhoades is the guest of her sister, Mabel Clark, of Sheridan Indiana, who has been critically ill. She will also attend the state convention of the W. F. M. S. of the M. P. church which meets in Indianapolis next week.

Mrs. E. F. Schultz, Fort Wayne, Ind., says: "I suffered severely with kidney trouble, the pains in my back were almost unbearable and the kidney action was irregular and painful. I took Foley Kidney Pills and in a short time I was completely cured." M. C. Quigley.

Quick Crop of Potatoes. Isaac M. Crawford, of Sullivan, age 85 years, won a two-bushel sack of potatoes a few days ago by shouldering it and carrying it from the grocery store to his home. The grocer who lost his wager, offered him $4 for the potatoes he had won.

Dr. King Alone is Left. Dr. W. R. King, of this city, is now the only survivor of the Morton Monument Commission, since the death this week of Rudolph Schwarz, the sculptor who designed and modeled the Morton monument.

RINGLING CIRCUS.

At Indianapolis Great Spectacle of "Joan of Arc" Added To Their Show.

Ringling Brothers' Circus and a newly added S500.000 spectacle of "Joan of Arc" will exhibit in Indianapolis on May 6th. The spectacle in itself is an attraction that should bring thousands of visitors from the surrounding country. It is beyond question the greatest production of its kind ever seen in America.

The world's most skillful scenic artists, costumers, property-makers chorus directors and stage managers were engaged to mount the production. A stage bigger than a hundred ordinary theaters was built and made portable so that it can be conveyed from town to town and erected each morning in the main tent. Thus the circus proprietors have made it possible for those who live in contributory towns, as well as in the large cities to see this magnificent wordless play with its cast of 1,200 characters, a ballet of 300 dancing girls, a grand opera chorus of 400 voices, 600 horses and a train load of special scenery, costumes, properties and mechanical devices for producing such stage effects as thunder, lightning, storms, fires and the sound of battle.

In the old market place of Rouen, France, there now stands a monument by which the French of today have sought to redeem their part in the execution of Joan of Arc. who on May 30th. 1431. was burned to death on the false charge of heresy, after having delivered her country from the English and having restored the crown to Charles VII. History records but the meager facts of this strange heroine of eighteen years, who led the armies of France victorious through English invasion, and then, deserted by all, even the indolent monarch whom she preserved, died by the cruelest torture known with the name of the Master upon her lips. Unsung in poetry, the name of this simple peasant girl has come down through the ages to be revered as that of a saint, and whose wonderful powers and whose bravery are verily believed to have been of divine inspiration.

On the triumphant incidents, the victorious engagements, the final defeat of the English armies, and the coronation of Charles VIT. all achieved by the frail Maid of Orleans, has been founded the inspiring spectacle which gives Ringling Brothers' circus a new significance and makes an attraction such as the world in searching for amusement, has never been before found.

The regular circus program is more than ever attractive. Its company of 375 foreign artists, its double menagerie, and its new street parade will prove a great surprise to those who attend from this city. The event is one that should not be missed. d&w

CAUTHAGE MAN KNEW THE ALLENS IN VIRGINIA

Frank Brooks Was Intimately Acquainted With Mountain Outlaws Who Cleaned Out

An Entire Court.

Frank Brooks, of Carthage, is well acquainted with the famous Allen family, members of which murdered the judge, state's attorney, clerk, sheriff, one juror, a spectator, and wounded several others when a member of their clart was placed on' trial at Hillsville, Virginia, says the Carthage Citizen. Mr. Brooks was horn and reared in Southeastern Virginia, and for years operated a ferry on New river between Max Meadows and ML Airy.

At that time the Aliens were farmers and tobacco growers, and in good circumstances. Mr. Brooks says that apparently they were pleasant people, but like all mountaineers, they were hot headed and quick to take revenge for real or fancied wrongs. They always carried guns on public days.

Mr. Brooks kept a wagon yard at the Jackson Ferry, and says that Sidna and Jack Allen have many times remained over night with hifti.
