Rinkaril Will Hang. Wabash special: At 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon a verdict of murder In the first degree with the penalty of death was returned in the Wabash circuit court, in the case of John Rinkard, the wife murderer. The verdict was a surprise to the people, who, however, almost without dissent, gave their indorsement to th« punishment for one of the most brutal murders ever perpetrated in Indiana. The crime for which Rinkard will doubtless pay the death penalty was the most horrible and cold-blooded ever recorded in the history of Indiana. Rinkard, who had separated from his wife, became incensed over the division of a small life insurance collected after his daughter's death. Arming himself he went to the home of the woman’s brother and fired upon his wife through the window while she was standing at an ironing board. She managed to drag herself to an adjoining room and fell upon r. bed. Rinkard ran into the house and standing over his prostrate wife, heedless of her piteous pleading that he spare her life, fired three more shots into her body and ending her life. He then placed the revolver to his own temole and pulled the trigger. The ball entered the right temple, blew out his right eye and came out at the comer of his left eye. nearly destroying it. He was loaded in a wagon and started for the morgue, for it was thought he was dead. Hut on the way it was discovered that his pulse was beating and he was placed In an ambulance and taken to a hospital, where he was revived ;Kid finally recovered, or as nearly so as he ever will. An Anti-Cigarette Crusade. A crusade against cigarettes was launched at Roberts Park Church, Indianapolis. Sunday afternoon. The organization is known as the Anti-Cigarette Heague, ami its purpose is to get boys to sign a pledge to refrain from using tobacco in any form until they are 21 years old. The pledge reads: "I do hereby pledge myself, upon honor, to abstain from smoking or using tobacco in any form, at least until I reach the age of 21 years, and to use my influence to induce others to do the same.” At a recent meeting of the Epworth Reagues of the city it was decided to organize an anti-cigarette league, and Sunday's meeting is the result of the scheme. Miss Flora Miller was appointed to superintend the organization and had charge of the meeting. The names of nineteen boys and youths were enrolled and they all signed pledges. Attached to the card are coupons for the signatures of parents or guardians. The membership is not to be confined to Roberts Park Church, nor the Epworth League, but is to be extended wherever there is an opportunity. While the paramount principle of the league is to abstain from the use, of tobacco, it will also act in the capacity of a committee to see that the cigarette laws are enforced. Each member is to keep a lookout for violations of thi« kind.—Indianapolis Journal. Supposed Kidnaping Proves to be an Elopement. Marion special: The disappearance of Minnie Hultz, the daughter of James Hultz, a farmer living at Arcana, Grant county, has developed into an elopement instead of a kidnaping case. The girl has been located at Niles, Mich., whe re she went with John Marlow, the man accused of kidnaping her. They were married. The girl’s father objected to Marlow keeping c-ompany with Miss Hultz, because of the youth of both. The young man is not yet 20 years old, while the girl has just passed her fourteneth birthday. When informed of his daughter's marriage, Mr. Hultz was reconciled to the turn the affair had taken. The chief of police at Niles was notified to hold the couple and they were placed In jail an hour after marriage. When the father learned they were married he notified the police to release them, which whs done after they had been several hours in Jail. South Bend special: John Marlow, who eloped with Minnie Hultz, of Marion, the couple being married at Niles. Mich., is in jail for making a false affidavit. He swore before the Justice of the peace who married them that both w« re over IX years old. while the bride Is only 14. Marlow will be held until the Marion officials come for him. A Plucky Little Ft. Wayne Girl Fort Wayne special: Isaac Slater was shot and dangerously injured by his Ki-year-old daughter Monday night. The girl shot to save her mother from being killed at the hands of the husband and father. Slater had been in the habit of abusing his family and frequently threatened to kill his wife. Monday he was drinking and Bessie, the daugnter. fearing trouble. hid his revolver. At 10 o’clock Slater went home and trouble followed at once. Mrs. Slater attempted to assuage her husband's rage, but he seized her by the throat, and throwing her down, choked her with both hands. The girl screamed for help, but no one was within hearing, as the house is in the suburbs and is isolated. She tried to loosen her father's hold and, failing in that and seeing her mother, as she thought, dying, ran to the cupboard where she had hidden the revolver and taking out the weapon shot her father in the back. She was arrested, but immediately released. Mrs. Slater was not dangerously Injured. Slater is at Hope Hospital in a precarious condition. Notable Expansion.

Dealing with Crimes in Canada. (From the Chicago Tlmes-Herald on Jan. 12, 1901.) The citizens of the Dominion of Canada have just cause to be proud of their record as law-abiding people. The annual report of the criminal statistics of the Dominion, which has a population of over 0,000,000, shows that there were only twenty-five indictments for murder in 1899. of which only two were left without final action. Eleven of those indicted were hanged, nine acquitted aud three confined as insane, Canada is a country of vast proportions. Its people are scattered over a wide stretch of territory, making police surveillance particularly difficult and In many districts impossible. Yet a city like New York or Chicago alone furnishes a far greater criminal list every year than the whole vast stretch of territory from Quebec to Vancouver. The Canadians ascribe their immunity from crime to the promptness with which punishment is meted out to offenders. When a man Is caught redhanded in the act of robbing another lie is not released on straw bail by some justice of the peace from the slums, to go out and repeat the offense. Sharp and sure justice is meted out to criminals of till kinds, the result being that when the guardians of the public peace succeed in bringing a thug to the bar they are seldom called upon to hunt him a second time. Furthermore, there are few court delays lu Canada when a criminal is brought to lx>ok. They have no Dreyer cases over there. There are no methods whereby Canadian criminals can have the proceedings stayed from mouth to month and from year to year or after being convicted, appeal from one court to another until witnesses die of old age or opportunities for corruption can be found. Nor does this swift method of treating with wrong doers in Canada leave the Innocent unable to properly defend themselves. They have all the opj»ortunities aud privileges that our own laws extend to them. The extent to shield the guilty is lacking—that is all. The al>ove taken from the editorial column of the Times-Herald gives some idea of the immunity from crime that exists in Canada, and this is one of the many inducements held out for Americans to settle in the district known as Western Canada. The season of 1901 will see a few new sections of the country opened up for settlement. They are attractive in every respect. It is understood that one of the best Indian reserves in the famous valley of the Saskatchewan will l>e opened up tills year, and an invitation is extended to those desiring homes to make Inquiries. The price of the land is said to be nominal. Besides these lands, the several railway companies have lands to sell; also the government. For particulars write to the agent of the government, whose advertisement appears elsewhere.

A Remedy for the Grippe. Physicians recommend KEMP’S BALSAM as a remedy for patients afflicted with the grip, as it is especially adapted for the throat and lungs.

KEMP’S BALSAM prevents this by keeping the cough loose and the lungs free from inflammation. All druggists sell KEMP’S BALSAM at 25c and 50c.

CASCARETS quietly, positively stop fermentation in the stomach, make the liver lively, tone up the bowels, set the whole machinery going and keep it in order. Don't hesitate!
