STATE NEWS IN BRIEF.

coiumous.— The Hartnoiomew county jail has come la for more criticism. Nearly every report made on the jail within the last few years wis condemned it, but the only changes made have been the erection of a Bedford stone porch in front of the building at a cost of about seven thousand dollars." The grand Jury has completed its inspection of the county institutions, and While It praises the orphans' home and the county poor asyinm it condemns the jail as insanitary. There is no method of providing hot water-in 4he Jail, and as a consequence the prisoners do not bathe in cold weather. There are no bunks in some of the cells and prisoners have to sleep on the floor.

Kentland. —W. C. Robinson, the young lowa aviator, captured the American record for sustained flight across country. His flight from Des Moines, la., was intended to end in Chicago, but was feally ended here, 81 miles southeast of Chicago. The deviation in his course was due to a severe windstorm and rain. Robinson covered the journey in four hours and 26 minutes, which is estimated to be between eighty-flve and ninety miles an hour. The distance between Des Moines and Chicago by the shortest route is 300 miles and, as the aviator flew 81 miles southeast of Chicago, it was estimated that he actually covered approximately 4rtd miles. The former record for continuous flight was 261 miles, made by C. Murvin Wood on August 9, 1913.

The injured: J. E. Eminerd, fireman, Logansport, fractured skull and Internal injuries, probably will die; R. J. Crane, engineer. Logansport, bruises, not serious; Rrakeman Hatcher. Ixigausport. bruises, not sCrious. When the crash came Fireman Emmerd became frightened and jumped. He is believed to have struck his head on the rail of an adjoining track He was taken to Ridgeville and later removed to his home in Logansport. Engineer Crane and Brakeman Hatcher remained in the cab until the train had slowed down to a speed of about fifteen miles an hour,, when they jumped The injuries of both are painful. The train ran about three hundred yards before coming to a stop. Princeton. —The jury in the case of Charles Good against the L. ft N. Railroad company returned a verdict favoring the defendant.
