alleging failure to provide. Plaintiff also prays that tho cugtody of
their child be awarded to her. A Now Swindling Scheme. In Northern Indiana a new way to
rob the unsuspecting is being successfully practiced. A salesman for th: Curtis Balance Churn Companj’, of Louisville, Ky.,” arrives in town and proceeds to business. Hisolferis to give the agency in a certain territory to a farmer to sell thirty churns at such a price as will insure $150 profit, one-half of which is to be kept by the agent when the churns are sold and the other half to be paid back to him as his share. While this is not to be paid until the proper number of churns are sold, yet by smooth talk the local agent, as though to protect himself from having to pay them more than he agreed to is induced to gives his personal note for $75 to the swindler. Of course no time is lost in selling the note. In a few days the man who has taken tho agency begins to mistrust that probably there is _ trick in the game which was not observed, so ho writes to find out about the churns, only to have his letter re turned uncalled for, or to be informed that there is no such company in existence. The next thought is where to find the alleged Hoffman, but he has tnto new fields of conquest. ing contracts out of their line of busi-
ness, especially to strangers.
The Koachdale News discussing a chestnutty subject, says: We have heard so much about "Putnam’s old Court House" that we fully expected to find an old shanty built of logs and chuck and hearing the names over its doors of some of tho early missionaries or Jack ion Democrats, but its a brick building and it has several rooms, its windows are large, but we did not observe many easy chairs to loaf on, perhaps that is why some people "kick” so about a new Court House; well we have not much to build a Court House with so we will just offer a contribution in tho way of a suggestion and that is that if some of the nuisances of the Court House yard were removed, (there is one viewed from an outsiders standpoint that is a shame to Oreencastle and a disgrace to the

That Bonanza Mine. The Terre Haute Express has been interviewing the Terre Haute stock holders in the Putnam County Silver Mine, and prints the following: Numerous exaggerated rumors have been rife during the past few days concerning Mr. Louis Duenweg’s find of lead and zinc deposits on tho farm in Putnam county. There is some foundation for such rumors, but like all statements made by the invisible somebody, must bo considered with the proper measure of allowance. A representative of the Express called on Mr. Duenweg yesterday and obtained the following facts concerning the probable find: Attention was first attracted by the “crop” of a surface vein of a mineral peculiar to lead and zinc ore, lying in the bottom of a small creek. The vein was traced about one hundred feet until it reached a bill where it began to get .♦bicker ard is b w twe feet thick. At the beginning of t he vein the rock is hard, showing little mineral, but as the tracing progressed the rock became softer, showing a richer yield of better mineral such as “jack,” “sili,cate” and zinc blend, bearing great similarity to the profitable mines of Missouri. Mr. Duenweg says that tho jjresentjndications are good, but as to the probable result of the prospecting he is unable to say. Hi announces that so long as such favorable results are realized the prospecting will be continued. Men are at work following the deposit, and will not stop until the experiment
More rain, more rest; hence there is plenty of rest now-a-days. W. E. Horn was appointed postmaster at Cloverdale on Tuesday. D. B.

Concussion of the brain resulted, and he remained delirious for about twenty-four hours. Dr. G. C. Smythe gave him needed attention. Report has it that Assessor Jas. Denny, while interviewing property owners a few days ago, visited a house on the corner of Crown and Elm streets, walking in from Elm street; he made the necessary assessment, and departed; later as he worked on Crown street, he saw the same house but failed recognize it, and made a second assessment of the same person’s property.
