Long before this it was evident that he was sure of the nomination. Marion county's vote made him a total of TJ5, and when Perry was reached her thirteen votes made his total JwS. one more than enough for a choice, thus giving him the nomination. The roll call was continued till Posey county was reached, when an effort was made t3 have the call dispensed with, but thft Chair ruled that it could not be done under the rules. Mr. 'Henry had kept a tab of the vote as It proceeded, and as he saw that his opponent was already the nominee of the convention he withdrew his name and moved to make the nomination unanimous, which was done. This was the quietest roll call of any during the day, with the possible exception of the first, which was taken before the delegates were stirred up. There was an entire absence of work among the delegates. The two candidates seemed to be either patlsfled that they had done all they could in the way of work, or else had agreed that they would allow the ballot to be taken without any effort on their part and abide the consequences, whatever they might be.

After the nomination for Superintendent of Public Instruction it was erroneously announced that the next ballot would be taken upon State Geologist.

It was now midnight. The follow ing names were read by the secretary Capt. John Worrell, of Clayton; J. V. Egnew. W. F. Axtell. of Washington; S. J. Thompson, of Shelby ville; Hiram Hlnes, of Noblesville. Before the balloting was be gun the name of J. W. Egnew was with drawn and the ballot proceeded with the others. During the count the vote of Hamilton county was challenged. The county had cast 21 votes for Hlnes, and a delegate from the county challenged it.' and said he wished to vote for Thompson. The chairman ordered the delegation polled, but before this was done the contest had been settled In the delegation, and It cast 3 votes for Thompson and 21 for Hlnes.

Very poon after the second ballot was begun it became apparent that the result would be for Thompson. Axtell received but 13 votes and the delegates left the support of Worrell by counties and voted for Thompson. The roll was completed, but before the result could be announced Axtell moved that the nomination of Thompson be made unanimous, and the motion was seconded by Worrell, who said he deemed It no discredit to be defeated by a man who had lost a leg in the defense of his country. ci.osi; hack Foil jvixii:.

VERSAILLES, Ind., April 23.-IIenry Borgman is in jail here for cutting his sister's throat In the country near Napoleon, this county. The crime Is the result of a depraved condition of the morals of the young people.

The family is a large one, there being several children, of which Henry is the eldest. Old man Borgman, who owns about three hundred acres or land, has not permitted Henry to stay at home for several years, so he has had no real home, but "bached" around. It will be remembered that a few years ago the White Cajvs waited upon the senior Borgman and notllied him that if he did not take his old mother home and properly care for her he might expect vengeance. He had forced the old lady to leave, and she was then keeping house for Henry. SHOT HIS SISTEH. Marion Penrce, of Greentown, Xevcr Forgave an Elopement Eplnotle. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
