Indianapolis Journal, Indianapolis, Marion County, 9 September 1886 — Page 3

A NEWSPAPER OVER A CENTURY OLD. Some of the Strange Contents of a Journal Published Before the Revolution. “I saw in the Journal some time since,” said iliiam Wesley Woollen, “that somo one was credited with having a very old newspaper. Your article said the date waa 1795, I believe, and that it was probably the oldest newspaper to be found in Indiana. I myself have two newspapers that are considerable older.” Mr. W oollen allowed the reporter to look at them. One was “The New England Weekly Journal,” which, as it says of itself, is a journal “containing the most romarkable occurrences, foreign and domestic,” published at Boston, and dated Monday, April 8, 17£8. The eutire paper does not contain near as much matter as .two coiumns of the Indianapolis Journal. The other paper bears the title, “Maryland and Baltimore Journal and Advertiser," and is dated at Baltimore, Friday, Aug. 20, 1773. Among the notices and advertisements in the first-named are the following: Burials in the town of Boston: since our last, five whites, one black. Baptized in the several churches, nine. The History of the Rise. Increase and Progress of the Christian People, called Quakers, intermixt with several remarkable occurrences, by William Sewel. Mr.'Nath. Pigott intends to open a school on Monday next for the instruction of negroes in reading, catechizing and writing, if required; if any are so well inclined as to send their servants to said school, near Mr. Cheokley’s meeting-house, care will be taken for tbeir instruction as aforesaid. The N aturo and Necessity of Repentance, with the Means and Motives to It. A discourse occasioned by the earthquake. By the Rev. Mr. John Rogers, pastor of the church in Boxford. Sold by S. Gerrish, in Cornhil, Boston. Avery likely negro woman, wbo can~do household work and is fit for either town or country service. About twenty-two years old. To be sold. Inquire of the printer hereof. Avery likely negro girl, about thirteen or fourteen years of age, speaks good English, has been in the country some years. Inquire of the printer hereof. The Baltimore paper contains an advertisement of a runaway negro—“a tall, slim fellow who has several hacks in his forehead,” and the following: Ran Away—-On the 6th of July last from the subscriber (Barnard Reily) an Irish servant man. named Owen McCarty, about forty-five years old, sos feet eight inches high, of a swarthy complexion, 'r.as long black hair, which is growing a little gray, and a remarkable scar under the eye. He was a soldier in acme part of America about the time of Braddock’s defeat, and can give a good description of the country. Whoever takes up the said servant and brings him to the subscriber shall receive five pounds, and if out of the county ten pounds. The following advertisement would indicate that the Father of his Country waa what in this day would be called a land-grabber. It further shows that even in that time of simplicity persons who had horses to trade and land to sell knew how to present the advantages of their property in an attractive way: Mount Virnon, in Virginia, July 15, 1773. The subsefibor having obtained patents for upwards of twenty thousand acres of land on the Ohio and Great Kanawha (ten thousand of which are situated on the banks of the first-mentioned river, between the mouths of the two Kanawhas, and the remainder on the Great Kanawha, or New river, from the mouth, or near it, upwaids, in one continued survey), proposes to divide the same into any sized tenements that may be desired, and lease them upon moderate terms, allowing a reasonable number of years rent free, provided, within the space of two years from next October, three acres for every fifty contained in each lot, and proportionally for a lesser quantity, shall be cleared, fenced and tilled; and that, by or before the time limited for the commencement of the first rent, five acres for every hundred shall be laid down in good grass for meadow; and. moreover, that at least fifry good fruit trees for every like quantity of land shall be planted on the premises. Any persons inclinable to settle on those lands may be more fully informed of the terms by applying to the subscriber, near Alexandria, or, in his absence, to Mr. Lund Washington: and would do well in communicating their intentions before the Ist of October next, in order that a sufficient number of lots may be laid off to answer the demand. As these lands are among the first which have been surveyed in the part of the country they lie in,.it is almost needless to premise that none can exceed them in luxuriance of soil or convenience of situation, all of them lying upon the banks either of the Ohio or Kanawha and abounding with fine fish and wild fowl of various kinds, a3 also in most excellent meadows, many of whiv.h (by the bountiful hand of nature) are in their present state almost fit sos the scythe. * * * And it may not be amiss further to observe that if the scheme for establishing anew government upon the Ohio in the manner talked of should ever be effected, these must be among the most valuable lands in it, not only on account of the goodness of soil and other advantages above enumerated, but from their contiguity to the seat of governm ent, which more than probable will be fixed at the mouth of the Great Kanawha. George Washington.

ODDS AND ENDS. John Frary, the well-known compositor and amateur philosopher, was not at all astonished at the recent earthquake. He is only surprised that they have not occurred sooner. “My theory,” says Mr. Frary, “is that she (referring to the globe) has struck something. Why not? She has simply come against some body of greater magnitude than usual. These disturbances have nrobablv been produced by this thing of boring holes into her. Look at that hole out at Belle Plain*, la.; look at these gas wells that are being bored all over the country. Punched full of holes, she has wobbled out of her course and struck something. I think there ought to he a law passed prohibiting people from fooling with the planet. I suspect now she whistles like a top with holes in it as she spins through the ether sea.” # # The days of kite flying are nearly over. When a few more wires are strung the embargo upon this juvenile sport will be complete. A few years ago all aerial navigators, disciples of Betsy Trotwood’s Mr. Dick, had to dread in sailing their sky schooners, were the numerous trees. With a creditable amount of skill they could hope to pet safely over the trees, but there is little chance of petting by the wires. One can look along the street almost anwhere and see from one to a half-dozen wrecks fluttering upon the wires. * # Superintendent Thompson, of the work-house, had hard work to save Dock Sing’s queue when he was washed and put into his striped clothes. Mr. Sine is the Seymour Chinaman arrested with a revolver and two Malay kreeses on bis person. Up to the moment of being taken to the barber shop of the institution he maintained the calmness of a stoic. As he caught scraps of suggestions from the attendants concerning his queue he became greatly excited, almost frantic. The attendants desired his hair cropped like that of the ether prisoners, hut as the Superintendent had no desire to send him to the insane asylum, he was spared what, to a Chinaman, appears to he “the most unkindest cut of all” * * “You would be surprised,” said Attorney-gen-eral Hord, yesterday, “to see the letters I receive asking my opinion on all sorts of questions that any lawyer ought to know all about When a man takes the Attorney-general’s office he becomes the poor and lazy man’s lawyer. There are a great many lawyers who, whenever they run across a question that is a little knotty, write immediately to the Attorney-eeneral. Today a gentleman came up here from away down in Jackson county to ask me about a trivial matter that any man who had sver studied law ought to have settled for him.” Arrest of au Unfaithful Husband. John Alcida Courneau is a fresco artist ongaged at the new Capitol building. Three years ago he sent his wife and focr children to Bordeaux, France, and since has contributed to their support by sending them monthly varying sums. Last week Courneaus house, No. 263 North California street, was entered by thieves, who rifled a trunk, aod among other effects carried off S7O. He reported the theft to Superintendent O’Donnell, aud in giving his account of the matter had a great deal to say about his wife being the oily one in the house at the

time. Patrolman Thornton went to the place and heard from the vomi.n he found there her statement She referred to her husband, Mr. Courneau, several times. Day before yesterday the Superintendent received from the American consul at Bordeaux a letter of inquiry as to Courneau’s whereaboua. He wrote that his wife, living in that city, had not heard from him for three months, and the last letter she got was very insulting. Comparing the account of the robbing and the letter, the officers concluded that Courneau was living illegally with the woman at the California-street house. Both were arrested last night by Sergeant Sauers and Patrolman Thornton. The woman is Mary Myers, alias Nellie Foster, at one time employed at the Zoo theater. LAST NIGHT’S WEDDINGS. The Autumnal Matrimonial Season Happily Inaugurated Last Evening by Two Couples. A notable event in South-side society was the marriage last night, at 8:30 o'clock, of Mr. George Macy and Miss Abbie Patterson, at the home of the bride, on Prospect street.

TROUBLE WITH A TOLL-GATE KEEPER. Farmer McGhehej’s Demand fors2,ooo on Account of an Unpleasant Experience. About'two years ago Cyrus McGhehey, who lives near the Allisonville & Fall-creek gravel road, had an experience at one of the toll-gates which led to his filing a suit for damages against the company. He claimed that he had paid toll at one gate for outward and return trips, but when coming home the gate was closed against him because he refused to pay additional toll. In the trial before Judge Walker, yesterday, the defense claimed that on several occasions McGhehey had caused trouble at the gates on account of toll. In this instance the testimony showed he paid the full rate for an outward trip alone at the first gate, but refused to take a ticket as evidence of this payment to show at the second gate. When he reached the latter a dispute occurred, but he was permitted to pass. When hd returned in the evening he again • refused to pay. The pate was kept closed for a half hour, when a messenger brought the president of tha company, who told McGhehey that the keeper had no evidence of his having paid full rate in the morning. If he did not have the money, he, the president, would pay the toll and give him a ticket for passage at the next gate. This McGhehey declined, and then the president told him he would accompany him to the first gate, and if the keeper there would say he had paid, it would be all right. He refused this offer, and finally went home by a long detour over a country road. In his suit he asks for $2,000 damages, on account of loss of time, delay to business and injured feelings. At a late hour last evening the jury came to a conclusion, which will be submitted to the judge to-day, in the form of a sealed verdict. A Girl's Fall from a Bridge, Lillie Webber, aged fifteen years, residing at No. 33 Maple street, in company with several other girls about her age, was playing on the west abutment of the Vandalia bridge over White river, about 4:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon, when she accidentally stepped off, and fell thirty feet, striking the gravel and rocks near the edge of the water. Her head struck a boulder, and she was for some time insensible. She was taken to her home in au ambulance and soon regained consciousness. No bones were broken, and in a few hours after arriving at home she was a\le to bo up and walking arouud. The Keynote of the Canvass. Senator Harrison will make the opening speech of the campaign for the Republicans at the Grand Opera-house on Wednesday evening of next week. As this is expected to be the keynote of the canvass, the event is awaited with much interest. Parties living in surrounding towns who desire to attend this meeting can arrange for special rates for ten persons or more by making application to the local station agent in duo season. Fined for Helping Candidate Sullivan. Another trial in the affair of the assault of John E. Sullivan and others on Wm. C. Jones, occurred before Justice Smock yesterday. This followed from the affidavit Jones made after the trial of Sullivan, charging Jerry Sullivan, Thomas O’Neil and John Ferriter with participating in the assault. Jerry Sullivan was fined $lO and costs, while O’Neil and Ferriter were acquitted. Barn Destroyed by an Incendiary Fire. The. large barn of M. H. Spades, in Perry township, near the Canada bridge, eight miles from this city, was destroyed by fire about 4 o’clock yesterday morning. A thousaud bushel* of coru and several tons of bay we;* consumed, making the total loss about $2,000, with small insurance. It is supposed to have been the work of t o incendiary. Halford Sauce is used at all first-class hotels.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1886.

SYSTEMATIC GRAYE-ROIBING. How the Convict Dead of the Indiana Prison South Have Been Treated. Loafsville Times Just to the north of the Jeffersonville penitentiary is a small inclosure, which is known as the prison graveyard. It is a graveyard ip name only, for it is said, upon good authority, that there are few, if any, bodies buried there. In the times of the early wardens everybody was sold to the medical colleges by the hospital stewards. When the body of a dead convict was unclaimed by relatives, at least this is the way it was done under the administration of one warden, the hospital steward carefully packed it into a bar rel and labeled it “C. I. Henderson, Chicago.” Early the next moruing a light buggy would convey the barrel to the depot, and it would be expressed to Chicago to be dissected by the medical students in that city. A log of sufficient weight was placed in the plain white coffin, which was supposed to contain the body, and a sorrowful procession of convicts followed it to the grave. Every time a convict dies those of his immediate friends who so desire are permitted to attend the funeral. It is so different from other funerals that a description of one may prove of inteiest. Four convicts bearing the coffin on their shoulders form the head of the processioo. Behind them march in single file, with the right hand of each convict upon the shoulder of the man in front of him, the mourners. Two guards with carbines upon their shoulders accompany them to see that the mourners all get back safely. The chaplain, with a small Bible in his hand, brines up the rear. At the grave the convicts stand round with uncovered heads, and listen to the pravers of the chaplain as the box is being lowered into the ground. A small board bearing the name of the deceased prisoner painted upon it is then stuck into the ground, at the head of the newly-made grave, and the procession again moves towards the prison. In course of time the board rots away, and all trace of the unfortunate man who is supposed to have been buried there is lost. It has not been this way under the administratration of all the wardens; for some bodies have been buried there, but they have been removed by ghouls before the body has been underground twenty-four hours. There is a man who lives near the cemetery who makes a regular business of supplying the medical colleges in this city with subjects, and some of them have been convicts, too. He receives $12.50 for each subject, and makes it pay. Several years ago the police noticed a wagon on the ferry dock with a suspicious-looking box in it. Upon asking the two men who occupied the driver’s seat what the box contained, the officers were informed that it held eggs. The lid was wrenched off, and there in a cramped position, with the legs and arms folded together under it, was the nude body of a dead man. It was afterward found to be that of a convict wbo had died the day before. The body was reinterred, and the very next night it was stolen again. On another occasion, in 1871, the hospital steward fixed up a barrel with the body of a colored convict inside it, and shipped it to Chicago. When it arrived there the label became disengaged from the barrel, andafter lying around for about two weeks it was opened by the baggage master, whose suspicions were aroused bv the foul odor emitted from it. The head was knocked out, and there, divested of every stitch of cloth ing, was a dead negro. It created a nine days’ sensation in Chicago, and numerous thrilling articles concerning it were written up by the Chicago journalists. The hospital steward was very still about it, and the mystery was never explained to the Chicago people.

Austin, Nev., Sept. B.—A report has just reached here that the Piute Indians are getting ugly and uneasy. A few days ago a drunken Indian murdered a man named Lindberger, in the Smoky Valley, and his arrest has caused the tribe to act in a very suspicious manner. It is feared that a general massacre may take place at any time. It is said that friendly Indians have warned families living in the mountains to get out aud seek places of safety until the hostile feeling wears away. The ranchers are already alarmed and are taking steps to protect themselves. As the valley is SDarsely settled, a few murderous Indians could easily kill them all and then escape to the mountains and never be captured, as white men could not follow them. Some families are preparing te move to Austin or Ophir. The whole trouble arose from selling whisky to the Indians. Plankett's Defalcations. Hartford. Conn., Sept. &—The investigation of T. F. Plunkett’s affairs reveals no defalcation in the Union Manufacturing Company. In the silk company it is found that of the $31,000 of paper which Plunkett had, SIO,OOO was

not negotiated, and $5,000 was put to the use of the company. This reduces the amount to $36,000. of which some may yet be accounted for. Besides this, he took $25,000 worth of negotiable paper, but does not appear to have realized on it • - Western Union Passes a Dividend. Nf.w York, Sept. Q. —President Norvin Green submitted the following quarterly statement at the directors’ meeting of the Western Union Telegraph Company to-day: Surplus July 1, 1886, $4,309,833. The net revenues of the quarter ending Sept 30 inst, based upon nearly completed returns for July, partial returns for August, and estimating the business for September, will be about $1,200,000; add surplus July 1, as above, $4,309,833; total. $5,509,833; from which, appropriating for interest on bonds $123,615, sinking fund $20,000, or a total of $143,G15, leaves a balance of $5,366,218. The gross earnings from current land service on commercial messages continue to show an increase, and would be very satisfactory but for the great amount of business being done between the large commercial centers without profit, if not at absolute loss. The cable business, under the prevailing low rates, has increased largely, and it is confidently hoped that the -business will soon reach a volume that will yield a revenue equal to any ever before earned, and permanently establish cheap cable service. The executive committee recommend that uo dividend be declared. “Tell me, where is neuralgia bred? Or in the heart or in the head, how begot, how nourished?” Oh, I wouldn’t bother about all that. Cure it with Salvation Oil, which costs ony 25 cents. ” The Appetite May be increased, the Digestive organs strengthened, and the bowels regulated, by taking Ayer’s Pills. These Pills are purely vegetable in their composition. They contain neither calomel nor any other dangerous drug, and may be taken with perfect safety by persons of all ages. I was a great sufferer from Dyspepsia and Constipation. I had no appetite, and was constantly afflicted with Headache and Dizziness. I consulted our family doctor, who prescribed for me, at various times, without affording more than temporary relief. I finally commenced taking Ayef’s Pills. In a short time my digestion and appetite IMPROVED my bowels were regulated, and, by the time I finished two boxes of these Pills my tendency to headaches had disappeared, and I became strong and well.— Darius M. Logan, Wilmington, Del. I was troubled, for over a year, with Loss of Appetite, and General Debility. I commenced taking Ayer’s Pills, and, before finishing half a box of this medicine, my appetite and strength were restored.— C. O. Clark, Danbury, Conn. Ayer’s Pills are tbo best medicine known to me for regulating the bowels, and for all diseases caused by a disordered Stomach and Liver. I suffered for over three years with Headache, Indigestion, and Constipation. I had no appetite, and was weak and nervous most of the time. BY USING three boxes of Ayer’s Pills, and at the same time dieting myself, I was completely cured. My digestive organs are now in good order, and I am in perfect health. P. Lockwood, Topeka, l£ans. Ayer’s Pills have benefited me wonderfully. For months I suffered from Indigestion and Headache, was restless at night, and had a bad taste in ray mouth every morning. After taking one box of Ayer’s Pills, all these troubles disappeared, my food digested well, and my sleep was refreshing. Henry C. Hemmenway, Rockport, Mass. I was cured of the Piles by the use of Ayer’s Pills. They not only relieved me of that painful disorder, but give me increased vigor, and restored my health. John Lazarus, St. John, N.

Asa healthful summer drink, with water, milk, iced water, lemonade, effervescent draughts and mineral waters, it is the best. Mothers worn out with the cares of maternity or the household, or when weak, nervous and hysterical, should take a dose of that delicious invigorant, Sanford’s Ginger. No other remedy is so wholesome, palatable and safe for delicate women, young children and the aged. For the nervous, sleepless and mentally and physically overworked or worn out, Sanford's Ginger is a pure and safe invigorator. It eradicates a craving for intoxicants in those addicted to their excessive use, allays nervousness, assists digestion and promotes sleep, and builds up those reduced by disease, debility and dissipation. Avoid spurious “gingers” said to be as good as SANFORD'S GINGER Sold by Drug gists, Grocers and Dealers.
