E. Carey, justice of the peace in Harrison township, received a type-written letter from New York ottering him inducements to invest in "green goods." The letter was very carefully worded, and inclosed in the envelope with the letter and instructions was an alleged newspaper clipping, giving an account of the arreat and trial of a man for counterfeiting, in which tbe man was discharged because the counterfeit bills were as good as the genuine and could not be detected by experts.

Orleans, Dec 1, Marion Wood, a wealthy farmer living three miles eouth of town, was arrested this afternoon and taken to Paoli on a ehargo of murdering John T. Webb, a prominent farmer of this township, on Nov. It A preliminary hearing will be given him to-morrow. A dispatch from Paoh Bays: The affidavit was sworn out by the widow of the murdered man seven days since, and was lodged with the justice yesterday. Wood was brought before 'Squire Hudleson this afternoon, but the State not being ready be was committed to jail to await a hearing next Friday. The State is represented . by T. 13. Huskirlc, L. C. Wright and Deputy Proteootmg Attorney Mavity. The defense will be made by Thomas Furrell and attorneys Spanph and Lawler. There was an ett'ort made at the coroner's inquest to fasten the crime on Wood, but not enough evidence could be found to warrant an arrest. Wood and Webb had trouble, and each had made threats against the other, and, as a consequence, the general public - at once accused Wood ol the crime, and a clamor for his arrest was raised. There . appears, however, to be only evidence nough against Wood to cast a dark suspicion. The State professes to have made come damaging discoveries. In the meantime, the accused lies in jail without haying had any kind of a hearing. Wood came to this county three years ago from Monroe county, Indiana, and married a wealthy young widow.

A quarrel has been brewing between the members of tbe congregation of the Mount Tabor Baptist Church over the possession cf tbe church property, consisting of a common frame building and one acre of ground seven miles eouth of this city. The case has just been heard in tbe court here for the third time. , It originated from the fact that some of the members were determined to become more liberal in their views as to taking in new . members, and a split in the fold was the resalt, both factions claiming the place of worship.

BELLICOSE CATHOLIC PRIEST. Be Didn't Want Tolw Erected in Front of His Church and Fired at tha Workmen. erecltl to tbe Indian poll JonrnaT. Newark, K. J.. Dec. 1. Trouble has been brewing for some time between Father Kerwin, pastor of St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church of East Orange, and the othcials of tbe projected electric railroad, which is now in course of construction. Poles for the operation of the road are being put in position, and as the system is to be run through the thoroughfare in which the church is located, it was found necessary to erect poles in front of tbe church property. Father Kerwin decidedly objected to this, but the officials of the new road were determined that they should go up. Early this morning a gang of workmen went to the church and immediately began to set the poles in position, working, of course, as noiseless as possible. But the priest evidently was expecting such a move, for the men had not proceeded far with their work when" he appeared at the window of his residence, pistol in band, and deliberately tired three shots at the gang of workman. His aim, however, was poor aud no ono was injured. There is great excitement in the town over the all air. s - MUST PAY DAMAGES. Railroads Responsible for Injury to Persons Ridinjj on Free Passes. Special to tbe Indianapolis Journal. Albany, N. Y., Deo. 1. The question of liability on the part of railroads In cases of injury to persous riding on a pass was settled to-day by the Court of Appeals, in the easo of Ira Porter, respondent, against the New York, Lake Erie &, Western Railroad Company, appellant. Appeal for judgment to general term, second department, affirming a judgment for 52,725.35 in favor of plaintiff. The action was brought to recover for injuries receito.i while riding on a tram of defendants' cars in May, 1883. The defendants sought to avoid liability by alleging that plaintiff was ridiogona pass, and that its servants were not guilty of negligence. The Court of Appeals holds that the decision of the general term awarding damages should be sustained, and this practically decides tbe question that railroads are liable for accidents to paea-holders. ai BYNtm LAID OK THE SHELF. They Believe In the West that He Was Called Off by Cleveland's Friends. San Frsncisro CLrcuide, Congressman Bynum, of Indiana, who has been very prominent as a candidate for the Speaker of tbe House, has withdrawn in favor of Mills, of Texas. The ostensible reason for his action is that Mills, as the great apostle of tanti' reform, will bo able to keep the farmers of the Northwest in line and carry out the policy which ho (Bynum) says the elections of lbi'O indicated to bo desired by tbe farmers; but it isoasyto read between the lines and see that he does not sive the strongest reason for bis withdrawal. The truth of tbe matter undoubtedly is that Cleveland and Mills bavereacbed a definite understanding. Mills is to drop his free-coinage notions and Cleveland is to throw his influence for him for Speaker, and then Mills in turn is to assist Cleveland to his nomination for the presidency. This means, of course, that tho West has given way to tho East on tho silver question, in so far as the Democratic party is concerned, and that free coinage is to be let sevefely alone. Nothing else could be possible with Cleveland in the held and shaping tho policy of the coming House of Representatives. We cannot imaiuo the author of the Warner letter and of the numerous anti-silver messages Htandinx upon a freecoinage platform. Tbe inconsistency wonld be too startling even for Cleveland himself, who is not easily disconcerted. Of course a free-coinage bill woulddispn.se of ttie matter, but it would not helo Cleveland if, he were believed to have been responsible' for the action of the House, as he certainly would be. The same considerations will probablv take Springer out of the tight, for Springer is a great mau for expediency under any and all circumstances. McMillin. of Tennessee, isnot developing any groat strength so the contest will probably benarrowed down to Mills and Crisp, with the chances in favor of Mills. His election will mean an assault upon the McKinlcy bill, for he is pledged to what he and his admirers are pleased to Oil tariff reform. The House is numerically strong enough for free trade to carry any measure of the sort, but whether it will do soor not will bo a different matter. It may not be farout of the way to conjecture that a bill will be introduced and debated, but not carried, or attempted to be carried, the real purpose boing to make political capital for the campaign of Women's Business Methods. Detroit Freo Press. I know a married man who was recently called upon by his wife to pay a little bill of about 10 for a lot of small wares purchased at a dry-goods store by that wife, lie paid the bill without question, but he told me privately and with much glee, that flie artics costing SO had been "made up' by bis wile into various fancy nick-nacks, which wee contributed to a fair at their churcV'.;''And how much do you suppose they sola for!" he asked. Of course, I had no idea and he continued. "Well, my wife and her sister worked on the things the better part of a week and they sold readily, being nseful and very pretty, indeed. The prices asked were paid and the net profitabove cost of material was 52." Then we both laughed like the brutes we were. Mi!k-Condeninjc Factories Sold. Elgin, 111.. Dec. 1.

HOLIDAY AND OTHER BOOKS.
Receive! through the Boiren-Merrlll Company, Indlunaiioli. "Ideals of Beauty" is the title given to a new publication which comes strictly under tho head of holiday gift books. It is a collection of choice poems by celebrated authors, interspersed with fac-similes of water-color drawings of different types of female beauty. There is no particular connection between the . poems and the sketches, but both, are ideals of beauty in their way. The various types of American beauty are very distinctly representld. The fact that this fart of the work is done by Miss Maud lumphrey is sufficient guaranty of its artistic excellence. Their resemblance to water-color drawings may not be as strong as is claimed, but they are none the less beautiful for that. Tho work is printed and bound in elegant style, and will attract the attention of those who are looking for Christinas presents. Price, 57.50. New Vork: Frederick A. Stokes & Co. "Makers of America'' is the title of a series being issued by Dodd, Mead fc Co., New York.

The volumes already issued are biographies of "Thomas Hooker," an early preacher of tbe Massachusetts and Connecticut colonies, by George L. Walker; "bir William Jobnsnn aud tho fcix Nations," by William E. Griflis, and "Life of General Sam Houston," by Henry lirice. All these works have literary merit ana historic value, having been written apparently with a full appreciation of the importance of preserving in the best possible form the fadiug records of early American history. . "Adventures of a Fair Rebel," is the title ot a novel by Matt Creeu. Probably this is a pseudonym, and there is some internal evidence that the author is a woman. The 6tory .delineates life in Georgia duriug ,the late civil war, and is marked among other works ot fiction bearing upon that epoch by its ingenuous frankness in dealing with Southern thought and motive. The characters introduced are for the most part broadminded and generous, whose patriotism is unmixed with bitterness, and who bear their sacrifices with the fortitude which becomes such character. This dominating leature gives tho story its distinctive quality. The plot turns on the complications resulting from a love affair between a Southern girl and a Northern soldier. New York: Charles L. Webster & Co. A curious and interesting book is ''The Sabbath in Puritan New England," by Alice M. Earle. It is a very industrious compilation of historical facts illustrative of tbe manner in which the Sabbath was observed in tho New England of tho seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. One is at a loss to understand where the author could havo collected so much curious information ou the subject, and yet it is evidently all gathered from authentic sources. The pictures which it affords of early New England life possess much historic value, and the local coloring, aud personal anecdotes are .remarkably interesting. It is a book to be read by alt New Englanders and their descendants. Cloth, 1.25. New York: Charles ScriDner'e Sous.

In "White Slaves,' or. tho Oppression ot the Worthy Poor," oue finds a graphic picture of the hardships and sufferings of the unfortunate poor. The author is the Rev. Dr. L. A. Banks, who, before writing the book, made a personal and searching investigation into the homes of tho poorer classes m Boston who were willing to work and who were neither criminal u r vicious. The facts given are such as to startle the public, showing, as they do, tho depths of suffering that exist in our large cities, even without intemperance or yico. Cloth, $1.50. Boston: Lee & Shepard. Mr. Thomas Nelson Page is among tho most popular short-story writers of the day.

A new novel by her, called "A Sister to Esau," is published by Dodd. Mead & Co. It is a strongly written and interesting story. Carrying the Idea Too Far. Puck. It is all right to "bring the church into the home," bnt when a man will stay there all the morning reading his Sunday newspaper because bis clock has a "cathedral chime" the clergy may think that tho thing is overdone.

DAILY, SUNDAY
The Journal is first of all a newspaper. Its primary object is to pub lish the news, and to secure this it spares no pains or expense. Besides the service of two great news agencies, which cover foreign countries as well as the entire United States, it has a corps of Special Correspondents, who give attention to those events and occurrences that are likely to be of particular interest to the Indiana public. Its Washington bureau was established for the purpose of looking after matters in which tho State and its people are concerned, and is under the management of an Indiana man well acquainted with the local business and political issues. It haa a correspondent in every town of importance in the State, and is constantly increasing its facilities for obtaining information from every quarter. Its staff of city reporters is large, and its local departments are unexcelled. As a newspaper it is far better equipped than any other in the State, and welcomes comparison with its contemporaries in any. and all of its departments. ' With all it endeavors to be accurate and trust worthy, printing the news, whatever it may be, without personal or partisan bias. But while the Journal is non-partisan as to news, it is a Republican paper, and sets lorth Republican principles. It is important that tlie people shall read the truth about these principles, and it was with the orject of putting everybody in the way of doing so that the price of the DAILY JOURNAL
Was reduced to-
15 CENTS
No other method of securing a Republican victory at the polls is so certain as the circulation of Republican papers among voters. Since tho reduction in price thousands of subscriptions have poured in from all parts of the State, showing that a need was supplied. In order to havo the proper influence and effect upon voters seeking for trustworthy information the Journal should go into their hands at once, and not next spring or summer. Clubs are being formed and agencies established wherever daily mails reach and as rapidly as traveling agents can visit til places, but Republicans in each and every locality cannot do their party greater service than to interest themselves in circulating the Journal. THE SUN DAY JOURNAL Is a paper that gives more attention to miscellaneous literature than the other editions, and contains in its sixteen, and often twenty, pages a va riety of CHOICE READING MATTER That satisfies the most exacting taste. The same reasons that call for the immediate extension of the daily circulation apply to the weekly. This is carefully edited, with a special view to the wants of Indiana readers, both in its general and political news. Its subscription price, $1, with reduction to clubs, places it within the reach of all, and no campaign contribution can be so effective as when spent in furnishing this paper to readers who need Republican doctrine.
