BIQ HONEY IN THE CASE. The Famen ScotUI Will Matter Settled at Sluncie. Mcnctk, Jan. 20. Special. Judge O. J. Lötz today rendered his decision in tho famous Henry county Scoville will case, thereby deciding a case of much importance, which involved an estate valued at S 150,000 and important legal technicalities. A few years since L'zra Scoville, a pioneer of Henry county, died leaving an estate valued at about $40,000, which he bequeathed in a will to hia wife during her life and after her death it was to be divided equally between his heirs and her heirs. The widow and John Morris of Knightstown executor of the will managed the business so successfully that during the ten years she lived the estate increased in valuo until at her death it waa worth $150,000. Scoville was married the second time. His second wife was a widow. Each had a family of children when they married. No children were born to them individually, leaving no direct heirs. The cape was brought up in the Henry county courts, but came here en a change cf venue and was tried at the December rm. Seventeen attorneys, representing the b6t legal talent in the state, were interested, and it was surmised the attorneys would get tbe major part of the vast at?m involved. la his finding Judge Letz decides that

the estate accumulated by Mrs. Fcovillo after the death of her husband should go to her nearest kin, as no trust in the property in controversy ha3 been established. This gives Mr. Scoville's children one-half of the $10,000 estate and the remainder to the children of Mrs. Scoville, all providing that her right to the estate was well established. SNOW LIKE DARK ASHES. Rather Queer Occurrence In the County of Laporte. La porte, Jan. 22. Special. A very extraordinary nieterolosrical phenomenon occurred in tho eastern part of this county by the recent fall of about one inch of Very stran;e looking scow. It was of a darker color than ashes, and looked like mill-middlings or shorts. This snow, when melted, makes a very muddy water, and when allowed to settle deposits a very tine sediment, which to the naked eye presents four ditlerent appearances, viz: two powders, one of a gray and the other of a black color, among which are mixed ragged flakes that look like sawdust and others that look like scales of mica orcopper filings. When 6een through a microscope the gray powder appears to be the debris of myriads of broken-down, pmi-traneparent cells and fibers. The black powder, which is about live times as coart-o und about one-tenth as numerous, appears to be pear-shaped, bug-like animalcule. The copper-colored scales are of hard substance, and when magnified become tr-nsincent and appear to be of a librons, cellular structure 01 a dark purple or blood-like color, in which are et the little blark, bug-like creatures before describe I. This is considered the original life substance from which all the other is derived. The little ragged, eaw-dust-like Uakea are but the former in process of disintegration, and look like white, fleshy, iibrotie. cellular tissue, in which the little black objects are set like reeds in a fig. This peculiar looking enow can easily be found, as it forms a uniform dark crust like stratum with a considerable depth of ordinary snow, both below and above it. The fall extended over quite an area of country and has attracted a pood deal of attention. The m itter is doubtless worthy of a thorough scientific investigation. FOUNDATION DAY. An Interesting; Orcnston at tlie Ir.rlinna State University. Bi.oomington', Jan. 21. Special.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. A IiEADEn, Frankfort, Ind : Tho Bering sea controversy will be settled by arbitration. The trouble grew out of the seals of St. Paul and St. George islands, situated in Bering sea. The eeals leave the islands ia the fall of year to winter in some unknown placo in the Pacific ocean. They return in the spring to breed on the islands. On their return trips from the Aleutian islands to the old rookeries of St. Paul and St. Cieork'e a largo number of English "poachers" make it a business to hunt tho seals for their skins, killing the females and yearlings. Tho Russian government always claimed Pering as a closed sea, ami when Alaska passed into the hands of the United States our government maintained the claim. The privilege of killing the seals waa sold to a company for twenty years. Two years ago when the contract expired another company secured the privi.ege for tbe same number of years. To prevent the extermination of the seals only 100,000 males above the age of three years are allowed to bo killed under the supervision of government agents. Tbe killing of seals by English or other hunters is a violation of this, and several English vessels engaged in the poaching business were seized a year ago by the U. S. jjrovernment. The I'.nglish government contends that Bering ia an open sea and that the United States has no monopoly to it. This ia the controversy to be settled. A Reader, city: The word "reciprocity" is defined as meaning "reciprocal advantages, obligations or rights." A reciprocity treaty "is a treaty concluded between two countries conferring equal privileges as regards customs or charges on imports, and in other respects." Mr. Blaine's policy is to arrange with a few Spanish-American countries of small population and slender wants, and which do not compete with our manufacturers for the free interchange of certain commodities. At the same time he proposes to maintain a tarilT, prohibitory in many respects, against the wealthy nationB of Europe, which are already our beet customers. Democratic Friends, Tippecanoe City, U. : (I) Leon T. Bagley is secretary oi the state board of agriculture and can give any information desired about the new grounds.

These are the net results of today's deliberations of the democratic national committee. Indianapolis made a good fight for the convention, and on the eighth ballot lacked only two votes of enough to fecure tbe convention. But the two votes never came. However, the convention is to bo held in the West, and that's a cood deal ot patisfaction to the out and out tariff reformers, and that is the kind of people the lioosiers are.
