THURSDAY, JAN. 24, 1901.

ACCORDING to the new apportionment bill eyidently agreed upon by the republican bosses. this district will be made more surely democratic by the addition of Adams county. The new district will be Noble, Lagrange, Steuben, DeKalb, Whitley, Allen and Adams counties.

THE sudden death of ex-Governor James A. Mount removed the only remaining ex-governor and closed the career of a splendid citizen. We have always held Mr. Mount in high esteem as a gentleman and as a public officer. That he made several mistakey while in office will be admitted by even his warmest friends, but his was a clean and creditable administration. His death is a terrible blow to his loving wife, who was an almost constant companion.

THE present legislature will be called upon to pass several laws to take away the most arduous duties of the governor. We believe that the most exacting work that comes to this official can be removed by providing for a board of pardons, with power to act on the many applicati'ons for clemency always on file. The legislator who comes forward with the right kind of a bill providing for a board of pardons, should receive the support of a unanimous legislature.

THERE is an occasional man who will not allow a show of friendship or interest in anything that he does or proposes to do. These self same fellows get very angry if you do ahything that does not just exactly meet their approbation.. They will d—m you if yeu do and curse you if you don’t. They will insist that you did not do a thing when all of the circumstances point in the other direction. It is no use to try to suitsuch fellows. They are not eversuited with themselves and are best let alone. .

THERE is but little doubt but that over-work and care for the interests of the state brought on the untimely and unexpected demise of Governor Mount and Governor Matthews. The duties are too arduous, the responsibility too great for any conscientious and careful man. He must either neglect a portion of the work or go beyond the capacity for performance. He must either wreck his forces or neglect what seems to be a duty. The present legislature owes it to Governor Durbin and his successors to do something to remove the burdens that have been fatal te his predecessors. - i

NissAM BEHR, representative of the Jewish colonists in Jerusalem, is on his way to New York. He cables that the colonists are doing well in that land, the product of their land winning medals at the Paris exposition. He frankly acknowledges that some of them still receive aid from the Rothschilds’ fund, but he hopes within a few years every one of them will be self-supporting. The Jews of Europe purchased over one hundred square miles of land in Palestine,and parts of this land are placed at the disposal of colonists as they arrive. Nearly every colonist is very poor and funds are provided to tide them over the first year—until the ecrops they plant have matured. Some of the colonists have vineyards, in bearing, and frem the grapes is made excellent wine.

THE contest for the senatorship for the counties of Allen and Adams county was settled last Monday by the unseating of William Ryan. who claimed to be a hold-over by virtue of his election in 1898—a contention that was not recognized by his party who nominated Stephen B. Fleming, a popular young Fort Wayne Democrat, for the place. Fleming was elected as a matter of course, but Ryan was allowed to take his seat at the opening of the senate compelling Fleming to make the contest. The election committee was

unanimous in its finding and the vote unseating Ryan was almost as unanimous. Ryan was elected to succeed Senator Bobilya who resigned after two years service to accept the appointment as county auditor and how he got the idea that he was entitled to more than Bobilya’s unexpired term is one of the inexplicable things that one occasionally meets in politics.

LAST Monday evening at his nome in Fort Wayne, Hon. Robert C. Bell, one of the best known lawyers and democratic politicians in this part of the state, died after an illness dating from election day. Mr. Bell was an old soldier, having enlisted in the early days of the civil war. Since 1871 he has been a resident of Fort Wayne, and prominently identified with its affairs. He was born in 1844. In 1868 he was married to Miss Clara Wolf, daughter of Adam Wolf. Mr. ‘Bell was always an active and influential Democrat. He held but one office, however, that of senator from Allen. Several years ago he wasa candidate for the congressional nomination but was defeated. He was several times the candidate for presidential elector, and in 1886 presided over the démocratic state convention. Bob Bell,as he was familiarly known, was a bright lawyer, a stanch friend, and a leader among men. Widely

known he was popular and admired for his bright and cultured mind. To a friend he was always true, and to an opponent civil and chivalrous. He was a man among men.

SENATOR BEVERIDGE will find but little consolation in the decision of the United States supreme court, as rendered by Justice Harlan and concurred in by the full bench, to the effect that Cuba is a foreign country and entitled to independence. But the decision is in - perfect harmony with the joint resolution of congress before the beginning of the SpanishAmerican war, declaring in express terms that the United States had no intention of annexing the island. In view of this fact the decision referred to 1s predicated upon facts as they exist and not as some excellent people would have them, Annexation is likely to come in due time, but only with the consent and approval of the Cubans themselves. Senator Beveridge has been getting a little eheap notoriety lately by advocating an absolute confiscation of Cuban lands and a continuation of the American protectorate.

IN commenting upon Gov. Mount’s poverty in his early days the Indian apolis News makes his well defined distinction between different kinds of poverty. ‘‘There is a poverty and ignorance of cities that, dwarfing both mind and body, worst of all pinches character. After years may make up the deficiencies of early education, but they can not heal the wounds ‘that have been given to character nor nourish principle where none has been early cultivated. But the narrow means and loneliness of the farmer’s life may by its very denials work to the better advantage of him that must suffer them. It was here in this God-fearing household, where duty was the watchword and conscience the monitor at every step. The son of a Presbyterian elder, reared in the backwoods, honoring his father and his mother, is certain to become a man to be reckoned with in after life. In whatever position he will prove an inflexible quantity, conscientious and true.”’

“THE EDITORIAL PAGE.”

Noticeably few seem to understand what is meant by the editorial page and what that term signifies. The editorial page of a newspaper is that part of the paper in which it speaks for itself, of its own opinions and in its own language. It is usually made prominent either by larger type or wider spacing. The articles are mostly formally headed, the shorter ones appear as distinet paragraphs, and usually some notes or comments or small items are run in with the same type and spacing marking the whole editorial part. These, unless credited are always supposed to be original work of the editor and his- assistants.. In the leading articles it is supposed that he not only gives his real opinions on the subject mentioned, but that he expresses them in the best language and in the most effective manner at his command. When the paper is quoted as having said this, believed that or advocated another thing, the editorial column is alone authority, as that alone expresses the opinions of the paper. The reportorial part of the paper is supposed to give the news and accounts of current events and doings with explanation and perhaps side talks, giving them shade or character according to political or other views taken of them, but this is not the paper itself speaking. That speaks only through the editorial columns. The editorial column is usually headed by the name of the paper, some notice of its ownership and publication or circulation. or items -particularly belonging te the business of the paper, and a one-column date line. This is the usual introduction. The place of the column is usually on one of the inner pages, but certain New York journals have set the style of:putting the editorial column on the last page, which is wholly an innovation. Very few papers of eight pages or more put the editorial column en the secondipage. Thisis rare. It is usually on the left hand page of the paper as you open it,that is on an even numbered page. Advertisements on that page are not very common the space now occupied by editorials being filled with selected arti&l}es, orginal or clipped, for the general reader.—Milwaukee Journal.

A Horrible Accident.

Last Friday morning, Pashan, a small hamlet near Shipshewana, was the scene.of a terrible fatality. " BenLa,‘min Miller, an Amishman, with is family resided in the village in a frame dwelling. FKFriday morning at about 4 o'clock Miller arose and built a big fire in the heating stove and returned to bed. He and his wife were awakened a short time later to discover the house on fire, the ceiling already falling in. They quickly gathered the two smaller children, who were sleeping near by, and a few pieces of clothing and escaped from the burning building. horrified to find that the whole upper part of the structure, in which four other children were sleeping, was a mass of flames. The children came to the window but would not jump, and turning away were carried down by the falling floor. A search was made for the four bodies, which were burned to a crisp, and only parts were recovered. The arms and legs were missing and the heads were crushed. The main part of the bodies, which were charred and were necessarily handled with great care, were lifted from the ruins. A number of bones were also found, but ashes of the cremated. flesh had been carried away by the winds. The bereaved parénts are heartbroken and have certainly had more than their share of sorrow. Three daughters, Geneva, aged 14, Mabel 10, and Belva 8 years and one son, Eh’&ah, 12 years of age, were the children who met their sad fate. Another son, who died after an illness, was buried on last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Miller are highly respected and are left to suffer a heavy loss. The household goods, clothing and a considerable amount of money were consumed and no insurance was camed. : S

KUHNS TAKEN TO PRISON.

The Notorious Out-law Again Behind the Walls—Taken as a Horse Thief—

Caught Red-handed.

Marvin Kuhns, who has given Noble county so much netority and lately an unenviable prominence is again where he ought to be, behind the bars of a state’s prison. After weeks of unmolested freedom and loud protestations of injured innocence and honest endeavor he met the ignominious fate of a horse thief, was arrested red-handed and without hardly a struggle. The man who had so successfully resisted arrest, who had led officers of three states a merry chase and who was feared by all who were best acquainted with his past record, was caught in bed and captured as easy as a drunken tramp. It was done so easily and so effectually that many people in this part of the state would not' believe that the man in the hands of the authorities at Plymouth and the Noble county desperado was one and the same individual, and it took the strongest kind ot proof to make them believe that Marvin Kuhns had been so easily landed behind the bars. But it was Marvin and an other idol has been shattered. After all his protestations of honesty of purpose he turns out a horse thief and after all his braggadocio he develops into a dung-hill. Sympathy has been wasted upon him and it looks as if some of our people missed a golden opportunity to pull down a substantial reward for his return to his old quarters. : It seems that Sunday of last week Kuhns and two other young fellows, one of them presumably his brother John and the other a tramp picked up along the Wabash railroad got to Plymouth, where they stole a team of horses and a surry from Miles Pomoroy living near that city, and a fine fur overcoat from a neighbor. Soon after the discovery of the loss of the team, the alarm was given and a posse started in pursuit, no one suspecting that Marvin Kuhns was the thief. They .were traced through Winamae, Logansport and several other towns by ex-Sheriff J. E. Marshall and City Marshal Thos. Chaney of Plymouth. Descriptions of the thieves had been telephoned to all towns in the route the thieves were supposed to have taken, and it was discovered that they had passed through Otterbein, Benton county, a short time before. Citizens at once organized a posse, to search for the thieves, when the operator at Green Hill informed them that the men wanted had arrived there and were stopping at the little hetél in that town. At 2 o’clock Wednesday morning the hotel was surrounded and the doors of the sleeping room occupied by Kuhns was broken open and he was rudely awakened to find himself under arrest. He made a demonstration as if to reach for a re--volver when sqgmebody shot him, the ball from a smx%ll revolver lodging in his face. He made no further efforts to escape and was at once hustled into his clothes. In the meantime the other rooms were broken into and John Kuhns was awakened only to begin shooting but he was also overpowered and placed in irons. The other fellow took advantage of the excitement and leaped from the window to the ground below, escaping in the darkness. .

The identity of the men was not discovered until taken to Lafayette, where Kuhns’ wounds were dressed and when Superintendent of Police Harrison took a Bertillion measurement and found it to correspond in every detail with that taken by the Columbus, Ohio, . prison officials. Kuhns was also identified by Capt. J. B. Somers, of the Panhandle detective torce, who had known him for ten years, and by the police officials at Llogansport, who engaged in a street fight with him on the everning of Deec. 10.

In probing for the bullet received by Kuhns in the Green Hill fight, the doctor located another bullet in his back, which had evidently been there for some time, and removed a shot from his fage, but was unable to locate the nggv bullet. Kuhns also had a fresh knife wound in the abdomen in whieh several stitches had been taken and two other scars, all of which were not yet healed over. Kuhus was at once taken to Plymouth where an Ohio prison official was in waiting and positively identified Marvin Kuhns as the escaped conviet. At 10 o’clock Kuhns was taken before Judge Capron for examination. With head bandaged and wrists and ankles manacled, he was led into the eourt room between exSheriff: Marshall and City Marshal Chaney, who will claim the reward for delivering him to the Ohio - officials. The requisition of the governor of Ohio, for the person of Marvin Kuhns, was read, and the identificatien of the deputy warden effered as evideuce that the prisoner was the party named in the requisition. Kuhns admitted his identity to the court, but questioned the legality of turning him over to .the Ohio officials, in face of the fact he was charged with a erime in the state of Indiana. Judge Capron held that inasmuch.as Kuhns was conviceted and under sentence in Ohio at the present time, and the additional fact that the requisition had been made and honored previous to the coemmission of the cerime in this state, he could do nothing but deliver the prisoner to the Ohio officials. John Kuhns will be tried for horse stealing. Marvin Kuhns was then delivered to the Ohio authorities and was taken in charge by Deputy Warden Long. Accompanied by several Plymouth officers, the noted desperado started on a return trip to Columbus, where he arrived last Saturday morning after an absence of nearly two months. He was very despondent over his capture and professed that he would have fought to the death had he.been given a half a chance. He called his capturers reubs and farmers, but admitted they were to much for him. The Plymouth officials were paid the $250 offered by the state for his capture. : A Columbus paper said that Kuhns in an interview, Saturday, stated that Sheriff Harry Bell of this county had sent word to him that he had better get out of the county as he had papers for his arrest. This is denied at Albion and there seems to be no foundation for the statement. Kuhns has known all along that there was a price on his head and it is evident that he eoncluded to move toward the southwest. o

v Obituary. . Died, at his home near Wawaka, Jan. 12, 1901, Mr. Adam S. Conrad, aged 84 years, 10 months and 2 days. The deceased was born in Wood County, Virginia, March 10, 1816. In his youth his father and family emigrated to Hoeking County, Ohio. Here he grew up to manhood, and in 1839, not satisfied with the country, he removed to Ligonier, Ind. When ‘ he arrived there, he found but two log cabins where the city now stands. For a while he resided on the Hawpatch, then locating in the town of Ligonier where he liyed for a number of years, and then purchased the farm where he lived until his death. He was united in marriage to Miss Eliza May, Feb. 8, 1844, and to them was born eight children, one boy and seven girls, of which three girls preceeded him to the spirit world. Mr. Conrad was a man of great energy and decision of character. His was the privilege of being one among that magnificent host who, coming with strong physical energy and health and determined purpose to the wilds of northeastern Indiana, and by endurance and hard labor, have literally caused ‘‘a wilderness to bloom as a rose,’” and leave a legacy to the present generation that far excells the value of the property they have aceumulated; and leave by will to their heirs. | Mr.,ngrad was in poor health for some tinte, age and hard work made fatal inroads on his physieal strength that had served him so well and so long, yet he was not considered in immediate danger until quite recently. A few days before his death he called his companion to his bedside and said the day of their separation was near at hand, and that he could not linger much longer, but must go. He left arequest that Rev. T. J. Mawhorter conduct the funeral services which were held at the late residence on January 15th, at 10 o’clock, a. m., and the remains were laid to rest in the Ligonier cemetery. He leaves to mourn their loss, a son, four daughters and their children and numerous relatives and friends. | W

Michael Coleman was born in Concord, New Hampshire, Sept. 27, 1850, and died in Ligonier, Ind., on Monday Jan. 14, 1901, aged 49 years,3 months and 14 davs. The funeral was held from the Mier Hotel on Thursday, Jan. 17, 1901, and was largely attended by his fellow laborers and acquaintances. ““‘Mike” Coleman, as he was familiarly called, came to Ligonier four years ago and during these years has been engaged as a carriage trimmer, working in both the factories, his services being always in demand. As a mechanic and friend of labor he made many warm friends who were slow to sever their acquaintance, and when death at last claimed him they were first at his bier to render assistance and accord his remains a decent burial. Early in life Mr. Coleman acquired the drink habit, from which he was unable to. free himself, but seldom drank to excess while engaged in work. Kind hearted, he was liberal with his money and always shared it with his friends even to the denial of self. Honest at heart, he paid his debts and would make almost any sacrifice to meet an obligation. Truly it can be said, that with all his faults he was his, own worst enemy, while his many virtues stood out prominent to those who knew him best. . His friends and fellow workmen wish to thank those who assisted during his sickness and death. May you not go unrewarded is the wish of A FRIEND.
