THURSDAY. MARCH 3., 1887 The Duuham Murderer Interviewed. • Nothing new has been developed in the Dunham murder affair near Oswego, Kosciusko county. Mrs. Dunham, from the latest reports is recovering from her injuries, and, it is believed, will bo able to give a full account of the horrible crime. The editor of the Indianian-Republi-can interviewed Joseph W, Plew, the murderer, last Saturday a week ago, in ihe jail. The editor says: We found Plew in the enjoyment of good health, and apparently about the most unconcerned man among the inmates of the jail. On making the inquiry. he informed us that lie would be twenty-five years old on the 14th of next May. He was born in Elkhart county, and when a very small boy, along with his parents, came to this county, the family settling in Tippecanoe township. His father is still living, but his mother died nine or ten years ago, his father marrying a second wife, who is still living. In answer to our inquiry he stated to us that he worked for Henry Dunham about fifteen weeks, quitting his service about three weeks ago. Never had any difficulty with Mr. Dunham, but did have a little squabble with Mrs. Dunham, over the fact that she set no plate for him at dinner. Plew thereupon refused to eat, and afterwards asked her husband what the matter was, and he stated that she was angry because he did not work in the forenoon. He quit the Dunham farm on that day, which was a couple of weeks before the tragedy at the Dunham residence. That was tho only difficulty. Plow claims, that ever occurred between himself and the family. In answer to the inquiry as to whether he could prove an alibi, the latter term being explained to him, Plow stated that ho was confident that he could do so; and that he can satisfactorily prove his. whereabouts for the twentyfour hours preceding the murder of the Dunham family. He seemed to be perfectly confident that he could do so, And we are forced to acknowledge that for a man accused of so terrible a crime as Joseph W. Plew is charged of committing, he is the coolest prisoner we ever saw, unless it may have been a woman who was accused of the same crime having been committed in Etna township, a number of years ago. He certainly possesses a wonderful cool aspect under charges so grave, and is sociable, and quite ready to talk on the subject of the late tragedy, or any other. Plew informed us that he was 5 feet 8£ inches in height, and has lived in this county dearly all his life, having only been out of it two or threo times —going to Fort Wayne on one occasion, and to Goshen once or twice. Plew is of a dark complexion, with heavy eyebrows; very black hair; low-browed, and physically well put up, and we should guess rather powerful for one of his age and weight. He, of courffl;, declares his innocence, and says he will be able to prove it whehrHie comes to trial, where everything, he claims, will be explained, so far as he is concerned. He pronounced the story that has been published in the distant daily papers to the effect that he treated his wife badly on her dying bed as wholly false, there not being a word of truth iu tho tale from first to last. We found Plew perfectly willing to converse and ready to'* tell his side of the case. It must be borne in mind that in all such cases as this the newspapers always give the statement of the statement of the side of the prosecution; and often —very often—the side of the accused is never made public. We therefore decided that it would be no more than fair to give his version of the case—as a matter of right, for what it is worth. The statement of Mrs. Dunham, the only surviving witness of the terrible crime, is most anxiously awaited by the people, as much is expected from it, and which, if given clearly, will almost settle tho guilt or innocence of the accused. So far as we have been conversant with criminals in our capacity as a newspaper reporter, we arc free to acknowledge that when the enormity of the crime; the hideous details, in all their aggravated forms, are taken into consideration, we must say that Joseph W. Plew is the calmest, coolest and most nonchalant prisoner accused of murder we have ever seen, or with whom we have ever conyersed. The same paper contains this account of Plew concerning his arrest: “The day after the murder Plew was in this place and paid J. F. Bookman a small account, and also purchased a knife and purse, and changed a fivedollar bill to pay for the articles; he also paid I) H. Carpenter, undertaker, $5 on a coffin for his wife, who died three years ago, and whom he treated so cruelly on her death bed that there was strong talk of lynching him then. He left town about noon Tuesday, and ate dinner at Mr. John Willard’s, two miles west of this place; from there he went to his father's home, where ho stayed tilt about 4 o'clock, and then went to Wm. Waggoman’s. in Turkey Creek township, where he was placed under arrest at 10 o’clock Wednesday night by the party in search, ably assisted by a number ot others who joined the party. When Plew was taken he denied having more than $4; but $89.70 was found in his possession. H e had been at Syracuse that day, and was lavish in spending money in treating and in other ways. He bought a watch and chain of S. L. Ketring for $9 for himself, and a music box, and a set of silver knives and forks and spoons, which he expressed to his affianced at Sidney, this county, and who we understand, is a very respectable woman. Mrs. Waggoman, at whose home he was taken into custody, informs us that he had her count his money, telling her he had earned and saved it since last Summer. She said he had sll2.7Saturday Constable Scott and S. D. Junkin went to search for a cap and vest he wore on the day of the murder. The vest was found, but not the cap. He wore a hat when taken.’’ . . • - ■- A. Woolley & Son, Druggists, Warsaw, Ind., report the demand and sales of Frazier’s Distemper Cure for horses increasing rapidly, and giving general satisfaction in ail cases, where it has been used.

The Woman’s Column. Queen Margharita, of Italy, has a j strong preference for women physicians. Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris will spend ; the remainder of the winter with her mothor in Now York. We believe in electing women to public offices, and are glad to see that voters generally are willing to accord that privilege to the weaker sex. But wo notice that they generally get the office that has no salary attached. —Boston Post. Richland Centre, Wis., is about to have anew municipal charter, and nearly two-thirds of the inhabitants of the town have signed a petition to the Legislature. asking that athe new charter shall give the women of Richland Centre tho right to vote at municipal elections. Rev. Mrs. Danforth, of Ohio, who has been spending a few weeks in Boston, is pastor of two Universalist churches in her own State, one At Huntington and one at Flint. They a¥b\a hundred miles apart, but Mrs. Danforth has cared for them both very acceptably for the past six years. Miss Fairweathor, M. D., of Chicago, has been offered the post of lady doctor at the Medical School for women at Agra, and the number of pupils has increased from six to sixty. The Female Hospital at Allahabad has made an excellent start, and Lucknow is doing its best to rival the neighboring capital. Women physicians are appreciated in India. Miss Mary McCormic, who has just started, in Chicago, the “Girls’ Cooperative Clothing Company,” tho first institution of its kind in the country, is described as a short, sturdy young woman. with a ruddy, healthy eolor, and resolute gray eyes. She says she has been earning five dollars a week running a “tackor” to fasten the pockets of pantaloons, as long as she can live on that amount of wages, and if there is any virtue at all in co-operation, she proposes to see whether women cannot reap the benefit of it. The w’orkingwomen of Copenhagen have founded a benefit union for mutual help, which already counts 1,459 members. Many other women’s unions have been lately founded in Denmark, both in the country and the capital. Among the chief of these is the Women’s Union for Progress, which was established last November, and works in a democratic direction. Its object is to awake public opinion on the subject of “women’s rights,” and to excite attention to all questions of social or political interest. Lectures and discussions are held twice a month. Mrs. L P. Lowe has been elected State Librarian by the Tennessee Legislature. There was an exciting contest between the five candidates,- all estimable ladies, and Mrs. Lowe did not win until the twenty-fifth ballot was taken. She is the widow of a Methodist minister, who left her penniless. Mrs. Lowe took the money she received from the insurance on his life and paid it to settle his debts, saying that not one blot should be left on her dead husband’s name, “even for the sake of a living wife and eight living children.” Since then, Mrs. Lowe has earned a support for herself and family with her own hands. ■*® 1 • Born Without Eyeball*. William and Anna Armstrong of Coal City, Owen county, Indiana, have a daughter named Nellie, about 1 j years old, who was born without eyes. The external parts of tho eye, the eyelids and the cilia, are perfect; but the eyeball, or globe, is entirely wanting. The eyelids are closed normally, never opening voluntarily, but they may be separated with apparently little effort. The shedding of tears when crying indicates the presence and normal action of the lachrymal glands. There is no defect in any other organ of sense, either structural or functional. When but a few days old tho child betrayed an appreciation of light by turning her face toward tho window or open door. Her sense of touch is so acute that she is able to distinguish the different members of the household in this way. Although healthy she has not matured as rapidly as most children do, and for the first six months of her life she retained the appearance of a new-born babe. She is, however, mentally bright. —Chicago News. Bargain In fftualc.

The Big Couleo Country. The country between Devils Lake and C’ando, Dak., is one having many points of interest. Once away from the town we have to our left the briny waters of that remarkable body of water, Devils Lake, and to the right, nine miles away. Freshwater Lake, surrounding which is a most excellent country well occupied by industrious settlers. This lake, as its name implies, is of pure fresh water and quite large, with a fine growth of timber along its shores. Here is a favorite resort of the disciples of the rod and gun. Geese, ducks and brant are plenty in season, and the ruffed grouse, or prairie chicken, as they are called here, tire abundant at all times, as indeed they are all over Dakota. We soon come to Grand Harbor, a thriving little village built since the track was laid in June. The country hereabouts was about the first taken in the Devils Lake land district, and is well settled White farm houses have already taken the place of the tar paper shanty and sod shack, and a general appearance of solid thrift is observable.

Arriving at Church’s Ferry, nineteen miles from the lake, we leave the cars and take a private conveyance, for though a branch of the Manitoba Railroad is graded to Cando, the rails are not yet laid. Soon, seated behind a spanking team, we are rapidly lessening the seventeen miles between us and onr destination. One mile north we skirt the shores of Lake Isabel, a body of water four and one-half miles in length, and through which the Big Coulee runs in time of high water. Here are extensiye natural meadows, from which much hay is taken every year. Three or four miles to the northeast is Lac Aux Morts the Lake of Deaths, so named from a catastrophe, which, many years ago overtook a company of half-breeds who, wintering on an island in the lake, ran short of provisions and perished from starvation. Their graves can now be seen hidden among the tall grass, which annually covers the island. Strange, that under civilzed dominion, this is now one of the most prolific parts of the country for food production. We are now in the midst of the Big Coulee country, which has tlie name of being one of the best farming sections in the Northwest, and well does it deserve its reputation. The land spreads out in long, levei lines, to the limit of vision, and is, if possible, richer than any we have yet seen. A ride of two hours and we are at Cando, the capital of Towner County. We are here but fiftylive miles from the Turtle Mountains, which indicate their proximity by the quantities of good body oak wood from their slopes, for sale here at $5 per cord. This county being heretofore remote from the railroad, lias settled more slowly than other sections, the population by the last census being 750—nearly all in the southern part. Public land is abundant, and can easily be had within two or three miles of the eouuty seat. Whole townships of land in the north part the county, of the best quality, have not au acre taken. Lake Des Roches, twenty-five miles north of Cando, is twenty miles long by two or three wide, and many good farms can be taken along its banks. Returning, we curved out to the west, to get out of the line of settlement and see the public lauds. We found the country decidedly more undulating than that passed over in the morning, though with the exception of a boulder here and there, the soil seems quite as good. Lakes are met at frequent intervals and hay meadows are on nearly every quarter section. With the railroad now assured, and within two or three miles distance, the end of the coming year wifi doubtless see much of this land taken by sturdy farmers from the East, bent oil securiug themselves homes in a country where land equal to the best to be had in their country can bo had for the asking.
