Overman, aged forty-five, and her daughter. Mrs. Nora F. Maiklan l, aged twenty-three, and her daughter, Miss Maude Markland, aged one ytar and seven months. This, the Salem Democrat says, is supposed to be the only family in the county, and perhaps in the state, which can boast of five generations in a direct fcmile line. Another curious thing about the group is that the three grandmothers are widows. Attorney J. P. Cox Monday cos-d up his arguments f..r appealing the Cyrus Brown murder cas to the supreme court. The complete transcript of the evidence made ont and type-written by Miss Male! Gray was a model of neatnejss ai:d elegance, and contained "'. pages of lepal-eap size. The bill of exceptions contained twenty-five pages, and the clerk's transcript of the proceedings forty-two pags, in all 4.50 of record.

It is too early yet to determine what effect the recent sudden and violent cold Fnp had on the fiuit. While the preceding weeits of comparatively warm weather had swelled some of the buds and started the sap in grape vines, it hail doi:e so only in a few warm spot.-?. It Is probable that In some cases the buds were injured, although that is uncertain, us the rain. slee. and snow preceded tho freeze and so put the fruit in good condition to withstand It. liven if some buds and sprigs were killed, therewill probably bo enough left to bear more fruit than the trees nd vines should be permitted to ripen. Now Albany Ledger. The people of Fairniount are anxious for the .Marion street railway to exlend their line to their own little quaker city. Many, people from Fairniount take advantage of th" street cars running from Jonesl-oro to Marion, getting off the cars at .1 nesKro and coming to Marion on the street cars, returning the sann- way In the evening. To those who make the trip three or four times a week the saving amounts to a great deal. A round-trip ticket from Fairniount to Marion costs ...', cents. A round-trip tieket trom Fairniount to Joneshoro costs " tents, and 10 cents for street car fare makes the trip cost via street railway and Jonesbro U" cents. Marion Chronicle. The Mishawaka Knlerprise observes that the destitution in Klkhart must he heart-rending. One poor, family that is being clothed and fed by the charity of citizens was actually obliged to buy a three-dollar dog to keep the wolf from the door. Another poor woman had her feelings hurt by being offered a supply of plain brown sugar. She haughtily informed the donors that she never used anything but cut loaf sugar. It is reported that free bread has been traded for whisky, used by families that gave dinners to friends with roast chicken, and where a man fed It to his horses. No doubt there are cases where charity is greatly abused, and no doubt many cases of this abuse am greatly exaggerated, some cases probably existing in Imagination only. One of those little rows which will always occur as long as there are girls and tboys took place Monday night, and is to be aired In police court when the proper parties are arrested. It seems that William Boyes has a pretty sister, and she attended the revival at the Third methodist episcopal church last evening. After the close of the services Frank Chapman approached her and wanted to take her home. Boyes came up and objected, telling Chapman he had better go about bis business. There were hot words and some one struck Boyes. He was struck with such violence that he fell, striking his head on the icy walk, and being rendered unconscious. He was taken to his home and Dr. Hopkins called. It wa feared at first that he was seriously hurt, but he is now all right. Richmond Palladium. There has probably never been a time "within the re-xllection of oldest inhabitants," when, horses could be purchased at prices for which they may now be obtained. Fxtra good horses wlil not bring J100 in the Oakland market, while fairly good farm horses may be had any day for one-fourth that figure. A couple of good driving horses, seven or eight years old, and sound, were offered yesterday at JiO each, and found no buyers. This cannot be long and if men who have money to spare and a place to keep the animals, would only Invest now in horses and colts, a big profit on investment awaits them within two years. The Horseman advises Its readers to put all their surplus cash Into weanling and yearling well-bred colts, and the feed neeessary to keep them for two years, and asserts that they will treble their money. Try it. Oakland Ledger. There Is a lady residing not far from Rising Sun, Ind., who has spent over sixty years of her life on the came farm, and yet has never seen a steamboat, a train of cars, or even beheld the river that has rolled all these years within a few miles of her rural home. Nor has she ever attended a county fair, or visited th two cities. Rising Sun ahd Aurora, that are situated on each side of where she was born, and where she has resided for more than three score years. Children and grandchildren have grown up about her, and. while all delight to honor and revere their maternal ancestor, no Inducement could ever persuade her to leave tha house where her domestic duties and family tares restrained her. and which she regarded as the only spot on eartn where her presence was needed and where a sweet contentment bound her.

Saturday's Democrat contained a sad story of destitution about a man who 5tole a sa.-k of flour from a grocery store in this city. The merchant was alleged to have sent a clerk to Hie man's house aftr the flour, th- clerk returning with Ihe report that his heart would not thermit him to fetch the flour, as he found the man's children eating it out of the sack. It appears that the incident was not located properly. A drvinmer told the story a.s having occurred at Indianapolis, and being handed around it was finally related -s Ixlng related a.s having ha ppoiied at a well known More here.

Christ Schnider seems to have become the scategoa t cf the xvhite-cappers, at least he seems to b the most unfortunate one of the lot. His motion for a new trial in his case was filed Friday, but on account of its remarkable nature the prosecutor had to have time to look into and consider it, and as yesterday was the last day of the present term of court it went, over to the next term, which begins the fourth Monday of next month.

This morning Janitor Roberts of the city building picked up a piece of gas pipe about two feet long that had been carefully laid near the entrance of the station house, to the rear of the city hall. The gas pipe Is an Inch In diameter and was securely etopped at both ends, while from one end protruded a long piece of wire that had the appearance of being placed there to be kicked and thus explode the inner portion of the affair. Janitor Roberta, having read books on anarchy, came to the conclusion that the gas-pipe affair was a bomb. He didn't like to monkey with It, yet he couldn't bear to think of leaving it where any person might kick and thereby kick themselves into the land of sunsldne and wings. After holding an argument with himself he concluded to pick the "business" up and take it to the engime house. He did so and the whole department took to flight. Finally, Frank Caster volunteered to make an investigaUon. The wooden stopper of the pine was taken out and Frank dug avay the contents for a half hour and the result was a pound or more of metal was taken out. The metal had been molded to represent "stick dynamite." A quantity of mercury was also found. The bomb was placed where It was found by some joker, but such Jokes are not appreciated generally and there is a law against bomb-niaking, whether the article is real or a fake. Richmond Item. Coroner Sherill held an inquest on the body of William II. Brown last Tuesday, who was shot and killed by Martin Alexander the evening before. The coroner found that Brown came to his death from Wounds feloniously Inflicted by Alexander and the latter will be held in Jail to await the action of the grand jail to await the action of the grand jury. The tragedy occurred at "Nlggertown," a small settlement of colored people, on the hill just southeast of Corydon. From the testimony given at the inquest it appears that Brown started to town Monday afternoon and that he met Alexander's wife on the railroad trestle over Little Indian creek, just above the iron bridge south of town. Some words passed between them and when Mrs. Alexander reached home she told her husband that Brown had cursed her and threatened to throw her off the trestle. This enraged Alexander and he armed himself and awaited Brown's return. About 4 o'clock Brown got within ser-t enty-five yards of his home and stopped to talk with William White, better known as "Bill Black." when Alexander was seen approaching with a club In his hand. Seeing that Alexander was enraged. Brown went into White's house to get out of the way, but Alexander followed him and overtook him just Inside the door. A few words passed between them about what had occurred on the railroad bridge, and then .Alexander reached Into his blouse pocket and

up in a handkerchief. He fired at short range and Brown staggered and fell. While he lay groaning on the floor Alexander walked up to him and commanded him to "shut up" and at the same time fired another shot into his body, lie then walked outside and remained a short time, when he again entered the house and looked at Brown. Being satisfied that he had fully accomplished his purpose, he went home and afterward came to town and surrendered to the authorities. Corydon Democrat. A statement appeared in the Ft. Wayne Journal of Mondav morning to the effect that the Rev. Dr. Wolpert's resignation as presiding rider of this district of the methodist episcopal church was not due to ill health, as claimed, but was a result of a plagiarism which has been lodged agalnyt him. It Is claimed that a sermon delivered by him at (Joshen recently was taken down in short hand, and when compared with some noted minister s sermon was identical. The iviort. whether true or false, will no doubt have a damaging effect upon him. We understand, however, that like most things of this character, tin's has two sides to it, and it would be well for every one to withhold criticism ami judgment until the other side can be presented. AVh have, of course, no means of knowing tho facts, but. many excellent men have leen charged with a similar offense and suffered no permanent or Lusting Injury. The thoughts of men sometimes run in similar channels and bring forth conclusions very much alike. To any one acquainted with Dr. Wolpert it would be lälo to say that he would be obliged to use th words, thoughts or arguments of another. It is an easy charge to make against a man, and sometimes J such charges are the work of jealous hands. There are many things to be considered lefore a person occupying his position should be condemned. Wait until he fully recovers from his sickness. Kendallville Sun. He's here. He's been here three days. He came from somewhere in the Fast and his business is to stimulate the A. P. A. business. This is what he has said to a number of members of this order. Including business men, and thev tell it to the Bulletin. The fellow is a tall, spare built man of rather pleasant address and black eyes and mustache. Here is the way he reports the standing in Anderson. There are now 40 A. P. A. voters in the city and a ladies' auxiliary is forming. The convention in session, at Bloomlngton, 111., this week Is stimulating the order In Indiana, Illinois, Iowa. Missouri nnd Wisconsin. He claims that there Is no especial need of an A. P. A. movement here now. There has been no demand upon the part of any one for an interference of this character, but the fellow lelieves if he is to bo believed that the eye of the Protestant should be kept upon the Andersonschools, and he insists that he and his "400'' will keep their 800 eyes on the schools. In the meantime there has. been no complaint made of our public schools. The teachers are considere'. ompetent and efficient. No teaching of polities or sectarianism has been complained of. The only trouble Is to head off one fellow from driving little children Into the snow to eat their noonday lunch and the taking off of shoes in another school In the search for four pennies. Up to date the catholic church or pope at Rome had not been accused of being responsible for these things. But here's the rub. The A. P. A. in Anderson has set politicians thinking. President Smart continues to be overrun with letters of sympathy and offers of assistance from every quarter. Indicating the widespread interest felt in Purdue university and solicitude for its prosperity. Among these, additonal to those prexlously mentioned, are letters from Dr. John L. Irwin, superintendent of schools. Ft. Wayne; ex-President Joseph F. Tuttle of Wabash college, the Rev. John T. Coyle of North Adam, Mass.; the Rev. F. K.Dewhurst of Plymouth church. Indianapolls; L. M. Crist of Thorntown and Acting Regent D. J. Burrill of the Illinois state university at Champaign, whose telegram has already been published. Dr. Burrill said they were hard worked, both students aod professors, at Champaign, but would like to know if they could help in any way. and if so, to command them. Dr. W.

The architect is already at work on plans for the reconntructlon of the laboratory building, and they will be ready in a week. Th wood shops will be ready probably next week to resume work. The Call has asked Dr. Smart to make a definite statement of the exact situation of affairs and what the university must have, and at once, for the information of tbe public, and he has promised to do so at the earliest possible moment.
