ROMANCE OF A CONVICT.
A STORY OF THE SOUTHERN PRISON. General Indians Xewi Th. Taylor Murder Trial Ended DePauw Student Kejoice Damaging Horm in Wapl Highway llobbery Minor State Items. Jekfersoxville, Deo. 12. Edward Grayiili waa released to-daj from the southern prison. Graybill, some months ago, was arrested in New Albany on the charge of stealing a sack of flour. On the trial he pleaded guilty, fcut.iid his family was atarTinjr. There is Eomethinjr of a history connected with this man. At the close of the war a child was born, and after a lapse of several days was carefully packed into a basket, together with sufficient clothing and money, and quietly taken to what is known as the "Halfway house," where it was left on the doorstep of the residence. Appended to the handle of the basket was a note learins the inscription. "Name mybaby Eddie." A man named Graybill resided in the house where the infant was left, lie was the first to discover it, and on taking it into the house he consulted his wife, and it was decided that they take the child and rear it. The boy was named Graybill and the name "Kddie" prefixed, as requested in the note. When Graybill crew to manhood he left his adopted home and started oat to shift for himself, lie at one time was employed as brakeman on a railroad, but lost hi place and could not obtain another. He waa then forced to steal. There are two or three stories as to who Graybill is. A prominent eld citizen of Jetiersonville says he is the child of a prominent ettizen of Chicago. On May 14, IStil, when Fort Sumter was tired on, a yount; rut. a and Tounz lady of Jellersonville were engiCcd to be married. Lincoln's proclamation was issued, and the younj man took a fond farewell of his sweetheart and went to war. A few months later this waif was found on a doorstep. After the war ended th soldier came back, claimed his promised bride and moved to Chicago, where he is now a wealthy man. For obvious reasons the child was never claimed, but it is said the mother always kept an eye on her olTsprinjr, and that she paid a lawyer $0,000 to work for and obtain the pardon. Datios Fnltlifully Discharged. B&AZIL, Dec. 13. Special. At the final mass-meeting of tlock-coal miners the report of the committee appointed to audit the accounts of the relief fund was accepted and approved. The account was honestly kept and the fund faithfully applied. Much credit is due to the executive committee for the scrupulously exact discharge of the responsibility and dnty assigned. The publto regards it a faithful stewardship on the part of a public pcrvant under heavy bond, who receives and disburses SiVXa) with no loss to the interests involved. Hut here was a committee of men, having nominally no property, under no sworn oblication nor official bonds, who received promiscuously from far and near more than $2.i,lM), every cent cf which, says the auditing committee, has bteu honorably and legitimately applied. The meeting adopted resolutions of t ruin Its to all papers which save them moral find substantial aid during the strike. The Sequel to an Alleged Crime. Frankfort, Dec. 12. Special. Harry Fisher and Dr. D. K. Cripe have been arrested for committing a criminal abortion on the person of Ma'inda Sharkey Monday evening. Dr. Cripe is ia jail and Fisher has Riven bail for his appearance. There is also much talk of t.ro of our prominent business men being indirectly implicated in the crime. The girl's mother has broasrht suit for damages for assault upon the pirl, and the outcome promises some sensational developments. The defense claims that the whole thin? is a scheme to blackmail, while the plaintiä as strongly contends tbat an outrageous crime haj been committed. The girl who was at first reported to be dying has recovered. It is now ciaiiued that she was not injured. This is the second charge of the kind against the doctor. The girl is only eighteen years old. Both parties are represented by able attorneys. Mr. Fettit'n freüm nary llenrin?. Lafayette, Dec. 12. Special. W. Fred Pettit, the ex-methodist minister charged with the murder of his wife by strychnine last July, was admitted to bail this afternooD at the close of his preliminary hearing. Bail was fixed at f 10,000 and Mr. Pettit was remanded to jail, in default The decision of the justice of the peace is the only one in the history of the criminal annals of the state and was made without precedent. Evidence introduced by the prosecution was not strong, but it wished merely to introduce sufficient evidence to warrant holding him. Had proceedings been on a writ of habeas corpus, and Pettit had been admitted to bail, nothing would have been thought of it. Attorneys and all conversaut with law pronounce the decision the most remarkable ever mude in a murder case. Turning the Tables. Cicero, Dec. 13. Special. During the campaign of 's3 Daniel Warren, of the high protectionists, was placed in charge of a large sheep, -which was a symbol cf protection to American wool industries. With this sheep he proceeded to Xoblesville to a republican rally, bince the induration of Harrison the famous sheep has decided to work in the interest of free wool. While Daniel was crossing the pasture recently he was suddenly sent forward with a territic butt. Immediately recovering from his undignified position he perceived with horror that the old sheep of 'tH was now wreaking vengeance for the outrage upon it during the last campaign. Daoiel at once made trucks for the nearest village, receiving at every step a butt I'roru the democratic sheep. The Oldest Pensioner. Anderson, Dec Ii Special Col.

FOR REFORM OF TARIFF.
ORGANIZING IN MARION COUNTY. Vice-Presidents fur the Various Townships Klrcted An Kzecntive Committee Chosen The City of Indianapolis Soon to be Organized. The tariff reformers nro rapidly increasing in numbvrs and their principles are echoing throughout the breadth and width of the state. Tho movement, started lap t October, to form a club has met with hearty co-operation from loyal citizens in Marion county, and the influence of that organization i3 constantly spreading. The meeting called by the Marion county tariff reform league at the courthouse Saturday afternoon was attended by a largo number of enthusiastic representatives from every portion of the county, and tho expressions brought out were enough to indicate a fine orderly movement in putting down the monopolistic tariif that i.s now oppressing the republic. The delegates bad arranged to meet in the criminal court room yesterday afternoon, but when the hour arrived the tribunal was etill busy with regular routine matters, and after waiting until 3 o'cock the members assembled in court room No. 2, and were there called to order by President Kealing, who stated to the reformers tbat the body was expected to perfect an organization of the outlying townships. Pefore any recular business was disposed of the following resolution was introduced and carried unanimously: Whereas, The Marion county reform league has been informed of the sudden and untimely death ot our esteemed brother, Mr. Erauk Hoi 'mau, and. Whereas, Mr. Iloflman was a charter member of this organization, and always ready to further the great cause for which this league was organized, viz., tariil reform; therefore, be it Kesomd, That we have lost in his death a faithful member, a true friend and brother, and a useful member of society. Be it further Resolved, That a copy ot these resolutions be sent to the members of the bereaved family and The Sentinel for publication, and also that the resolutions be spread in full on the records of the association. The first step in perfecting township organization waa the appointing of vice presidents, and the following were named and chosen without opposition: Washington township, Cortez Rlue; Center, F. L. Savior; Decatur, William Yeager; Pike. J. Ä. Swan; Lawrence, Samuel Mu.lenkoff; Wayne, George B. N. Ilanch; Warren Kichard Senour; Perr, Chris Grube; Franklin, Harvey R. Matthews. The above list of vice-presidents, topether with President John V. Kealing and Secy. Thomas J. Hudson, were, upon the motion of Mr. Hudson, declared the executive committee. William George of Decatur township ppoke in favor of having two vice-presidents in Center township. He said that the township was wide and needed more than one man to meet the inhabitants and influence them to unite in the tariff reform movement. While the request was coneidered reasonable, it was not thought best to appoint another man at present. STILL DOING DIRTY WORK. The Operations 9f a Hook Trust Runner at Shoals. To the Epitob Sir: An emissary of Van Antwerp, Prasrg & Co. has been making himself conspicuous in this county for the last few days. He ii devoting his energies chiefly to republican school officers and to school ma'ams, who are making their record on their first six months' license. Ilia mission among the teachers seems to be to elicit opinions adverse to the geographies furnished by the school book company. He tells them that wherever the matter has been submitted to the courts the school book law has been held inoperative, and tbat it is only a matter of a very short time when the Indiana books will be displaced by the old books. That all the best educators of the state, with the state superintendent at their head, favor their displacement and the return of the old books; tbat the next legislature will repeal the law, when the worthless books of tho Indiana company will be relegated to oblivion. Whether his mission here will amount to anything is not yet known. He has, however, succeeded in getting permission from a republican trustee in Loogootee to write an opinion fof him, which is very unfavorable to the Indiana books. It is not the opinion of the trustee. Indeed, no one who knows bim would accuse him of harboring an opinion upon any educational subject. He has also elicited opiniotis from some of our lady teachers, one of whom has considerable fault to find with the geography, be says that since she commenced using it she has been unable to arouse, any enthusiasm in her class. That may not be the book's fault. She also tells us that "the study of geography is a science." I'ATEOX. bhoais, Ind., Dec. 13. Denjnmin Come to Judgment. Muncle Herald. B.
