A Well-Known Indian! an Passes Away. James H. Kice died at the Grand Hotel, Indianapolis, at 5 o'clock Wednesday morning For several days his condition ! appeared to Improve, but Tuesday after- ! noon ho began to sink and became gradually worse until death came. Mr. Rice had not been in good health for a year or more, He had long been afflicted with

s JAMES IT. KICE.

asthma, which about eight weeks ago assumed an aggravated form. From this attack, however, ho appeared to rally and gave marked evidence of improvement until he contracted pneumonia, which' despite the best professional treatment and nursing, resulted in a persistent decline of his energies and finally caused his death. James H. Rice was a native Indlanlan, born in Now Albany In 184:i. Ho served In the army, was afterward a merchant, a member of the legislature. Deputy Stale Treasurer, and Auditor of State for two terms. After his retirement from the of ; flee of Auditor of State In 1887 ho devoted himself to his private business, which was extensive.

Judge Taylor .Stops the Officers From Levying on Railway Property, At 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon Judge Taylor, of the Marion County Superior Court, granted the restraining order prayed for by the Union Railway Company at Indianapolis. In giving his decision the Court said that he granted the injunction because It seemed to him plain that the assessment of the Union Railway Company for taxation by the State Hoard ■ Tax Commissioners is illegal. It is il-

1 Prat, he said, because the Un'on P:iilv—y i Company is not a concern operated lor profit. j It was not understood from the decision : of the Court that the reasons given for issuing the restraining order in behalf of tiro Union Railway Company would bo applicable to other railway companies which are operated for profit. The Union Railway Company’s tracks are assessed at $1,500,000 a mile, and tho plea of the company’s officer’s before tho lax commission was that tho property should uot be taxed high, as It Is operated for the convenience of the public rather than the profit of the railroad. TENNYSON DEAD. Kagland’a Aged Poet Layi Sown Life's Labors. Lord Tennyson died at his home in London at an early hour Thursday morning. Tennyson’s Illness has produced a remarkable Interest in his personality among tho people of rural districts, where ho has lived for twenty years almost unobserved by them. Except Professor Tyndall, who lives at Uyudhoad, and a few of the poet’s wealthier neighbors, the people herelofor 0 have paid little attention to his coming and going. Wednesday, however, the simplest of his neighbors made pilgrimages to Aldworth to gather meagre bits of information of tho poet’s last hours. Lady Tennyson is nearly heart-broken over hor husband’s death. She boars hor deep j sorrow with admirable fortitude. j A remarkable case of the preservation of the human bqdy after death was discovered Saturday while an undertaker was removing some bodies buried sixty years ago on a farm to reinter them in a Louisville cemetery. One of the coffins dug up was very small and was metallic. Tho lid was removed, and an unusual I slghtwas presented to those who stood by- | In tho casket lay a beautiful child of | about oue year. It appears as though it had been nursed to sleep, except for a slight hollowness about tho eyes. It wtl not petrified, and the checks bore the “ flesh ” color, the hair was natural and the white shroud was in a perfect state of preservation. Pinned on the right breast was a half blown yellow rose, looking almost as fresh as if it had just been plucked from the bush. The child’s name was Archie Cooke, and many rclalives of tho family still live in Louisville* A pretty Ontario school teacher could not control tho bad boys, so sho went home i and committed suicide. Emmet Dalton, one of the Dalton gang ■wounded at Cofleyville recently, will, It is believed, recover. THE MARKETS.

POLITICAL. Genrgi; wen Democratic by 80.0M. Florida „ Democratic by more than 30.000. David D. U1I1 will speak In Indiana before close of tbo campaign. Ills reported that Walter Q. Gresham has signified his determination to support Cleveland. Wayne McVeagh, an ex-member of Garlield's Cabinet, has written a letter declaring for Cleveland. Senator Roger Q. Mills has almost entirely recovered from his recent Indisposition and expects to fill his Illinois appointments. 3 An estimate »f the Indiana vote by counties made by the election commissioners shows that it will be many thousands greater than four years ago. It Is estimated that lit toon thousand people attended the northern Indiana barbecue at Plymouth. Ex-Governor Gray and Claude Matthews wore the principal speakers. A now campaign feature has been intro ducod at Edinburg. The town board passed an ordinance which staled that any one who blew a tin horn within the corporate limits of that city should lie subject to a lino. Thus the "campaign ol education” progresses. The Kev. Myron Reed, who some weeks ago was nominated for Congress by tbo Populists and also Indorsed by one faction of tbo Colorado Democracy, lias sent a letter to the State Central Committee of the People’s Party declining the nomination. It is reported that the leaders of Tammany Hall are considering Congressman Ashbet P. Fitch as an available candidate for Mayor of New York. It is said that he is willing to accept the nomination if it should be tendeted him. Ex-Senator Ingalls has offered his sorv I ces to the Kansas Republican State committee. lie lias decided to spend ills entire time until election day iu that State’ and lias written to the Republican committees of New York and Nebraska do dining to speak In those States. The Idaho Democratic committee Wednesday withdrew its electoral ticket and idorsod the electors of the People’s Party ticket. This is understood to be in accordance with a general plan to be pursued in the Northwestern States, under the advice of the national committee. Ills understood that the Populists will cut thei r own candidate for Secretary of State and vote for the Democratic candidate. Itl 8 reported that tho Democrats will cut their candidates for Governor aud Congressman and support, the Populist nominee. Franklin McVeagh, an intimate friend of Judge Gresham, in an Interview ex plains the Judge’s position in politics Judge Gresham's change of faith, Mr. McVeagh says. Is solely duo to tariff issues, and while he makes no secret of his intention to vote for Cleveland, the traditions of his position as United States Circuit Judge are opposed to Ills taking part in the campaign, and for that reason lie will not write a public letter, nor will be permit himself to bo Interviewed. The flop of the Topeka Democrat on Saturday last is causing great consternation in tho ranks of tho fnslonists. The editorial explaining why It has lot down the People's Party State ticket has already created much bitterness between tho leaders of the fusion aud anti fusion, element of the party. The loss of the 'Democrat, which is the official organ of the Slate committee and tho leading Democratic paper iu Kansas, will virtually destroy the organization of tho fusionisls. Thoro is no longer any doubt that a now State committee will be elected at the coming convention, and from that mo ment there will bo a light for supremacy iu the good wlllof the national committee The sentiment of tho rank and tile of the antis is to put out a ticket. M’GILLICUDDY’S FEARS. Thinks the Pino KUIgo Indians Are Preparing 1’or an Outbreak Next Spring. • Dr. V. T. McOlIlcuddy, of Rapid City, S. D., well known as one of tho best posted men In tho country on Indian matter, is in Omaha, having just come from tile Pine Ridge agency. Talking to a reporter, ho said: “Ido not want to cause an alarm, but the situation at Pine Ridge is not ail satisfactory just at prosont, and there is no immediate prospect of it Improving. The Indians are sullen, and in many ways show a resentful fooling, and unless something is done to counteract this there is danger of trouble next spring. The Messiah spirit Is not dead, and tho whites must not depend on tho statement that the Indians are no longer considering tho promise made by Sitting and other medicinemen, who led the trouble two years ago. While thoro is no open dancing, there is a quiet discussion of tho subject, and the announcement that tho Messiah would come after two springs, whicli would bring tho time iu tho spring of 1813, is being carefully kept in their mind by tho Indians. Tho Government recently paid tho Indians at Pine Ridge ?85,030, aud this is used as an argument that the Great Father fears his red sous, else why should he seek to buy them off? Then the return from Fort Sheridan of Short Hull and Kicking Hear added another disturbing element to Urn already deeply stirred state of affairs at Pino Ridge. The moat significant thing is tho fact that there have been communications between the various tribes of a secret and apparently Important iialm. during tho summer. Thoro is a lino o' communication well established and constantly used between the Indian Territory and Riitlsh America, and the Indians all along tho line understand each other.
