AMerrill Tyler is at his home suffering from wounds received from George Healy, who assaulted Mr. Tyler, coming upon him from behind and bruising his head and neck.

We understand that the tax-fer-rets hope to have from $40,000 to $50,000 turned into the county tre;. mry as a result of their investigf rion, and the above figures allow for several thousand dollars whi ii may be explained away. It is said that the old Church estate at Remington is owing about S9OO, as shown by the records. Of course, a portion of this may be explained away. The administrator of the estate was C. W. Hartley, now of Good land. There are numerous others who appear to owe considerable. One prominent farmer of Carpenter tp., was here Thursday, in response to a notice received, and we understand will resist payment. We will venture the assertion that this investigation will cause lots of commotion in Jasper county during the next few months.

Mr. Tyler went to Rose Lawn Saturday morning but at last reports was still confined in bed. Sunday he is said to have put iu a very bad day, having high fever and complaining greatly of his back, the injury to which appears to be giving him the most trouble^
