Monday
Great surprise was caused afternoon, by the news that John Riley, the South End merchant, had made an assignment. James T. Denny was made the assignee, and is now completing the invoice of the store. The liabilities are less than $3000, and it is thought that the assets will more than cover that. Mr. Kilty does not assign his home as that belongs to his wife, buttransfers lots in Vigo county and in Kansas for the benefit of his creditors.

Deserted. On Tuesday evening a lady hunted up the police and told them a motb pitiful story. She told the marshall that she was married last December in England to Thomas Wilson, who had at one time been a resident of the U. S., that a short time ago they concluded to come to Greencastle and that she bought tickets for both of them from Liverpool to Greencastle. They arrived here at 9:4-1 a. m., Tuesday and walked up the street, when Wilsm turned olT at a corner telling his wife that he was going to look for some friends and would soon be back . She waited, but he returned not. She waited until late in the afternoon when she concluded that she was deserted and sought the authorities to give her aid. She told a StarPrkss reporter that her husbaud had $700 of her money when he left her, and that she did not have a cent. The officers took her to the National House and began the search for her heartless husband. As yet no results are reported. Mrs. Wilson says that she has a mother in England who will send her money to return to that country just as soon as a letter can reach her. In the meantime she is willing to work for her living. Trustee Graham is investigating the matter.

George Black’s Big Opening. The Star-Press announced in its last issue that G. W. Black had bought a half interest in the Dell Arena Auction Commission and Sale Stables, of Indianapolis. The firm name is now Warman, Black, Chamberlain and Co. On Tuesday they gave their big opening at which nearly 400 horses were sold. The sale began promptly at ten o’clock, and for nine hours, there was the grandest hustling ever witnessed. It did not take long to sell a horse either, for their were bidders there not only representing every part of the United States but also Scotland and England. The auctioner would have no sooner sold one horse, than another would be trottled under his nose. He had no rest, men were there to buy horses and horses were there to be sold. It was the biggest sale Indianapolis or even Indiana ever saw. Horses sold well ’oo considering the present market. One horse brought $290. All brought as mnch or more than they were worth. The finest horses were bought by Watson Bros., of Scotland, and within 18 days will be across the water with their meins clipped and their tails cropped, driven by the cockneys. Many good horses went South to Alabama and Georgia. It was an exciting scene and a splendid sight to see 400 good acting horses brought to the block. It looked like business. The Star-Press wishes Mr. Black success in his new enterprise. Those attending the sale from Greencastle, were Sheriff Glidewell, G. M. Black, Jim Allen, Dick Lloyd, Andrew Black, P. F. Stoner, Dick Gillespie, Ed Peck, John Cawley, Chas. Kiefer, W. P. Wood, Dr. Evans, Geo. Cooper, W. B. Vestal, Bill Durham and the Star-Press man.

We, the members of the Womans Club deeply deplore the loss of our friend and co worker Mrs. O. T. Langsdale. As one of the charter members, when the clul) was struggling for existence, Mrs. Langsdale was sure aud confident of success. In Mrs. Laugsdale we always found truth and justice and her presence gave an uplift and inspiration to the meeting. If she was absent, those who knew and depended on hot judgment, „e(e biueriy disappointed, while if she were present they feL sure ot oue kind linleuer. ■ he met every obligation cheerfully and to the new member w as especially kind and encouraging. Since she has gone awav earth has lost a mighty link bin.liiVg us to ft and heaven seems nearer now that we feel .’he u mere.
