THEPKE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, WEDNESDAY, JULY’ 9, Ui90. Zachariah Stephens will betaken to the iusane asylum this week. The State Normal School at Terre Haute recently graduated forty-two new school teachers. Sixty-two counties in Indiana will hold agricultural fairs this year. There arc only ninety-two counties in the State. _ The Lafayette paper mill paid the farmers 925000 for straw last year. Why not have a paper mill here? A syndicate lias been formed at Indian Springs and will make fifteen barreles of distilled spirits every twenty-four hours. Two thousand and twelve dogs were returned for taxation in Gibson county and that is not half of them. The taxable property is <9,378,15)9. W. L. Jones, who was wounded by his partner in a dairy, Elijah MaLolt, has recovered sufficient to attend to business. The health officer at Washington has been using the law on those who refused to keep their premises in a cleat! anil healthful condition. The first steam thresher of the season passed through this town last Thursday, and without the necessary legal precaution. We would call attention to the fact that everywhere owners should be careful.

f Warren Cash, who lived near A.r-( thur, died last Wednesday from the effects of haviujf been kicked the day lieforc by a mule. Thursdav lie was Interred in Flat Creek Cemetery. / Gua. Frank is having some flue stationery prepared at this office. Mr. Frank also has a change in his advertisement in this issue of the Democrat. He is doing a good business and guarantees that he will comply with all his promises._ Monday afternoon fire broke out iu the top story of the Armstrong Furniture factory, Evansville, ami destroyed tiie factory. This was the largest factory of the kind, but two, lit the U. S., and few larger arc iu the world. The loss is almost $150,000, with only a fair per cent of insurance. Jacob Kichel has sued the Evansville Courier for $25,000 damages. He is one of those who interested themselves iu securing the right of way for the street railway in Evansville a few evenings ago. He makes it a libel suit, but will not be so “libell” to get it as he expects. In fact he has withdrawn the suit. The third annual excursion of the Petersburg C. I*. Sunday School, which takes place July 21, promises to be one of the most interesting pleasure trips of the season. The train will leave this place at 6:54 iu the morning and go to Evansville, taking on passengers at all intermediate points. From Evansville the excursionists will go to several inter-] exiting points on the beautiful Ohio river, theuoe up the Green river to the historic locks at Spottsvilte. This river is one wild and romantic View from its source to the Ohio aud is selected ou tins account as a pleasing route for excursionists. / E. D. Traylor, an aged and respected citteen, died suddenly last Thursday moruing at his home a fourth of a mile cast of Long Branch in Jefferson township. Pike county. He ate breakfast heartily as usual and went out to a fence aud was supposed to have been slieing a piece of meat and throwing (he pieces to some pigs, as a knife and a piece of meat were found that indicated as much. He evidently fell down aud died alone. For a long time lie was troubled with what was supposed to be heart disease, and often said that he expected to die suddenly from that cause. He was buried at Ihe cemeteay near Gray church on what is knowu is Ihe Thomas Case farm. / Simon W. Taylor who was elected County Superintendent of Warrick county fay a peculiar bribery is still in trouble, lie resigned, it will be remembered, as trustee of Boom township. Barney Taylor, a cousin oS his, was, by agreement, appointed in his place, by Auditor Katterjobh. By tliis means S. W. Taylor got a majority of the trustees to vote for him for Superintendent. Tim eoqimissioners refused to approve his bond, and he sued them and was beatten. Then he took the ease to the supreme court. That ceurt ruled that motion which Taylor bad made for a new trial in the lower court should have been sustained. This leaves Ihe case still Iu the Warriek circuit court. C. Pi Excursion, July 24.

Wasnington citir.cn* have been laughing in their sleeve at Petersburg for having given Marshal Myers ! of this town an unhappy turn on the glorious Fourth. They just poked fun at him for wearing his badge away from home, a thiug he had a right to 4oi But it was unfortunate for him and the town if all be true, for they claim to have made him “boozy," to haro gotten him into trouble that knocked him down—net the trouble, but the other fellow—to havo made him take leg bail to get away from the Washington Marshal who did not arrest him because he was a Petersburg marshal. There is a good deal of complaint here, not all without; cause. The serious complaint made here against Myers charges him with having been intoxicated ; of getting knocked down by a roan who objected to having his sister spoken to by any intoxicated person ; of having to dodge the Washington marshal till that officer could be talked to; of tearing his pants in his flight till they needed replacing l»y a new pair; of spoiling his looks and his feeling to an extent that necessitated his keeping his bed for a few days. These are bad reports and the marshal should clear them up or reform, for au official is always subject to criticism, and ill conduct will do more harm than his official power can undo.

Modern L'rnsoes. A few days ago Jerome Borer enierred a long since abandoned part of Ida coal mine north of Petersburg for the purpose of finding a more convenient outlet for ridding the parts of tlie mine now iu operation of water. lie entered one of the most deserted, the darkest, and Crusoe-like dens imaginable. On passing inward he came to a partition, and, by examination, he discovered a door which he o(iened, and when he passed through he found himself in a room “all fixed up” in Crusoe style, for a proper distance from the first partition was another partition aud another door. There was flooring tor the weary feet of the modern Crusoes and one side was rudely ceiled. In the room were found chisels, a saw, a pick, two counter brushes, two nickle-plated clocks, a spade, a box of chalk, some writing pens, two ink bottles, hammers, screw-drivers, and a number of articles which to mention would make the list tedious. He was puzzled as well as surprised. For sometime he had missed lumber from about that part of the bank that is in operation aud supposed that it had been stolen aud carried otf by those who would never return it. Sometime during last February a pick had been missed by one of the uiiuers. This wa8_jound in the room. A saw belonged Wo Joe Kin man* A spade was identified by S. G. Barrett. The brushes ha\4 not been claimed. The two clocks re supposed to be schoolhouse property, though this is not a settled fact. The other articles have not beeu identified. About a day or two after the find was made known Robert Patterson gave the snap away, and said that Frank Lory, Frauk Hillman, and Herman Muir were partners in the crazy patchwork that illy graces as nice boys as are the fruits of a modern Sunday school. The boys all deny having any bad intentions, and say that they were engaged together to have a place of quiet amusement where they would be unmolested. They say they got the articles at their homes and that they do not know anything about the clocks, and also deny knowing, how many of the other articles got there. This cave-living it intervals has evideutly beeu going on since the latter part of last Winter, and how they kept it a secret till discovered is a little misterious. Most of the boys no doubt had no evil intentions, but that their leader was moved by an evil spirit is certainly evident. There are few parents who can bring op a boy on our streets or the streets of auy town in the way that he should go. Novel reading, the vices of drunken meu aud the influences of a few bad women who are not compelled to earn a living legally, all of whom seldom know that there is a town marshal, town council or a court of justice, contaminates the very souls of young people and breaks them down under the evil of their environments iu spite of all that parents can do. A united effort, however, would make matters better, and this seems to be needed in Petersburg as sadly as iu many of the ns!ghboring towns. The following have been licensed to marry since last week: Florence Sliepard and Charlotte Selby, Ezekiah Colvin and Emma B. Carlisle, Henry Morrison and Alice A. Meeks, Jas M. McGregor and Mary M.

/ la MemorUu. Died, Jnne 29th, 1890, Samuel IIolion, aged eighty-eight years and tire months. The subject of this sketch was born In Mercer county (now Boyle county)1 Kentucky, on the 29th day of January, 1802. Here he spent his boyhood days and received such an education as the schools of those days afforded. At the age of tweut.v-niuc years he married Miss Sallie Beadles, and on the 18th day of October, 1831, some two mouths after his "marriage, he took his bride and came direct to Petersburg. lie spent'his first night in this place with Elias Osborn, Sr., now deceased. On the following Sunday he and Mrs. Hollou went to what is now Known as the Butler farm and remaiued with John H. Butter and family for seven weeks. About this time he built a cabin in the yard of the otd homestead southeast of town, where S. M. Holton now resides, and moved to- that place. Mr. Hollou was married but once. His faithful companion proceeded him to the better land several years. To them were born eleven children, two of whom, one hoy and one girl, died in iufaucy, aud were hurried iu the Butler Cemetery. Of the others, all but one arc

living, nicy are: iv. d. uoiion, a. M. Hollon, James D. Holton, Mrs. Octave Thomas (now deceased), Mrs. M. Price, Mrs. George Ilawkius. Albert Hollon, Mrs. Commodore Chew, and Mrs. liicliard Selby. When Mr. Hollon , camc to this county he owned two horses and a wagon, and had a hundred and five dollars in money. He worked his way in life and became as wealthy as most men of his day could, there beijtig but little value to real estate or any kind of property, though it required as good management and as much industry to acquire its ownership. Some years ago he gave each of his children in lands and money two thousand dollars, and reserved to himself the homestead which he sold sometime ago to S. M. Hollon, since which time he resided with his daughter, Mrs. Betty M. Price who took care of him to the hour of his death. February 1st, 1876, his life companion was laid to rest in the Union Church Cemetery near the center of tiie county in which they spent their useful lives, and on the 3oth day of Juue, 1890, he was laid by her side to await the resurrection call. lie was a member of the Christian church, and lived faithful to death. He was hottest iu dealing, temperate in habit, charitable to the poor, and ever lent a helping hand to the needy. They lived together as husband and wife along and useful life, aud when they came to death’s door in their old age they liugered long by reason of good constitutions which useful and temperate lives gave them, and lie side by side in the country church-yard an example to the rising generation^ The potato crop promises to be a partial failure. The Petersburg groccrymen have this Summer been unable to supply the demaud for new potat<ies, and manr of our citizens have not been able to secure a sufficiency of thatcdible. There seems to have beeu a large euough acreage planted, biit the vines simply grew iuxurientty with nothing but threadlike roots at the bottom. Potatoes are worth a dollar a bushel, and you cannot get them at that price all the time. From the preseut indications those who shall be fortunate enough to have good crops will realize a good price fur them. It is not too late, however, to plant late potatoes. Those who can fiud ground suited to the late crop would do well to plant potatoes yet, as by that means a*famine iu potatoes may be partly prevented. A Louisville attorney, II. Clair, came here on the 2d iust., and remained till this week in the interest of a syndicate that is undergoing discussion in Southern Indiana with a view to establishing a million dollar soda factory iu Jackson county. In that county are five gas wells that wld furnish a means of running sufficient power, and the same wells furnish pure salt' water—without any oils—such as all the forms of the sodas are made. At present only oneseventh of oue per cent, of these sodas are wrie in the U. S., the balance being imported. This factory would be oue of the most profitable if the material is what is claimed for it. Redemption of t'onnty Orders. Notice Is hereby given that there is mnn. ey nn hand in the Treasury of Pike County. Indiana, to Redeem all outstanding orders Issued by said county.aud that interest will cease on said orders on and after the *fch day of June 1#*>. W. 4. Bkthmuu 3w Auditor, Pike County, Itsd,

There is aduliry alleged on both sides and witnesses have been brought here to try to sustain the charges. There are about a hundred and thirty witnesses. The case is one of the most interesting divorce suits ever tried in this country and is rediculous, scandalous, and may yet be a little sensational. Judge Dyer, of Evansville, occupies the bench, owing to the defendant, Thomas Traylor, not believing that be could get justice before Judge Weibome. A Beotar&sMe Case from Illinois.
