~ MORE ANCIENT HISTORY = One of the Early Criminal Cases Tried - In Noble County Resulted in Ae- . quittal of Defendant.

The following letter from the pen of N. P. Eagles published years agq tolloows: : : An interesting account of one of the earliest cases heard in pioneer days. The charge was hog stealing. John Jihns of Sparta township defendant, and Jacob Spangle of Kosciusko county, prosecuting witness, Spangle testified he owned a drove of hogs that ran in the woods; that in the fall of 1836 he and his son, John, hunted for them and that some of the hogs }were missing; that they found where isome hogs had been Kkilled, a firq ‘built, and the hog’s ears burned to destroy earmarks. They then followed the track of a horse and sled to the cabins of three settlers, two of whom said, on inquiry that they had meat, and .had hogs of their own in the woods but Johns denied having pork—said they lived on venison. A search warrant was served, and a search of the premises revealed the

presence of a large trough in the pit below the puncheon floor, and in the trough a quantity of fresh pork. : i Johns was then indicted for hog stealing, and about a year later he was tried. Johns went to TFort Wayne and employved Colerick one of the leading attorneys of northern Indiana to defend him. B ‘He told Colerick of the evidence against him, of his large and dependent family of his poverty. Colerick tldd him to go home and find as many owners of wood’s hogs using the same range in the woods as he could for witnesses, also to let his hair and beard grow until after the trial. : At the trial there wads some trouble in getting a jury, the attorneys explaining to the court that every man ‘who had been in the county two or. more years had a large claim on woods hogs, whether he had lost a sow pig or not, and all the shortage or lack of increase was charged to stealing by new comers. On- the trial Spangle and his son, John, admitted that they could not locate the exact spot of killing; thai they did not know the number of section or range, or positively which side of the county line, as at the time the line had not been located. It was run and blazed through soon after this. e

For the defense, four men testified that they had hogs running in those woods, and that some were missing. They had doubts about Spangle having any hogs on that range and thought he might know something about those missing. They would as soon think he got some of them as that anyone else had. Colerick then in an able and eloquent address to the ‘jury called especial attention to the perosnal appearance of the “honest old Dunkard” before them, his patriarchal appearance, and asked if any juror. could look him in the face and for one momen believe that he would steal hogs,

No Secrets to Making : Perfect Cup:.of Coffee Perfert Caplof Coffe Can Be Achieved By Following ‘A Few Simple | Rules Says Famous Cooking Expert ¢ “ By Mildred Maddocks Bentley ‘ . 7 Formerly Director' of Good Housekeeping Institute _ :

What is the secret of first-rate coffee —the kind that starts the day right—that makes you feel “like a million. dollars”? o Literally hundreds of women—and a surprising number of men—have aske me this question in one form or an other. And it’s an important one—for what can be more blighting to domestic happiness than a cup of mnddy coffee or coffee improperly “creamed”? An on the fontrary, what can be more exhilarating than a good cup—fragran «olden, delicious? : : : Luckily there’s mno hidden secret _ab?ut making and serving the perfeet coffee—it’s just a matter of mim{ing your p’s and q's and following a few simple directions. £ '

’ Selection of Coffee , There are many excellent brands of coffee in the market—the choice of one: of these is largely a matter of individuzl taste.. But I do want to say tha usually coffee in the bean retaims it flavor longer than in the ground form: —so, if possible, buy the whole bea and grind your coffee fresh for each meal. If, however, the Breakfast hour! —or fifteen ‘minutes—is too heetic to admit of this extra step, at least keep your ground coffee in am air tight A tainer—a glass fruit jar for i >

And it's well to remember that the more finely the coffee is ground, the: easier it is to extract its full strength. and flavor—consequently finely-ground coffee is economical and time-saving. The Coffee Pot’ Connoisseurs maintain that coffee brewed in a meétal pot has a less deklicate flavor than in a-container of jglass, stone-ware or agate. Whatever kind of coffee pot you prefer—it shomld be

scoured frequently and occasionally “boiled out” with water to which a pinch of baking soda has been added—then rinsed, dried, and left uncovered., If a percolator is used, the pipe, should. be carefully washed:every day: with a brush to remove alliscum . from. the preceding brew. = | For drip coffee, if you dotnot' have a special drip coffee pot, an ordimary one equipped with a double cheesecloth bag will serve the purpose. Thescheese¢loth should be washed in ecold water after using and renewed at lemst once a week. Keep the bag alwaysimolst. - The “Creaming” | This. I eonsider quite as impeortaznt as the actual brewing. Good -codse can so

;(_uf ‘would they agree with him, Colerick, that if there was one honest man present the defendant was that may.® The jury were not long in finding Johns ‘not guilty” as charged and later explained that they had no doubt but that he did get some of the hogs that he was a fool as well as honest, if he did not, as his family were in need, and further that he could have lied out as easily as the others had if he had not been so blamed honest. John Johns was one of the three Whigs who voted at the first election held in Sparta township; Daniel Ohlwine and Hen\ry Weade being the other two. William Weade, a Whig was absent at the time. Johns was a much better man thanhe was aware of himself until he heard Colerick’s speech. From that time on he improved in morals, and g few years later he became a local Baptist preacher. , He moved to lowa in 1848 and in 1860 was one of the delegates to thg National convention held in Chicago, when Abraham Lincoln was nominated {for president.
