Oakland City Enterpritc: Mis* Ida Nath, twenty-year-old daughter of the widow Nash, in Pike county, eaat of the town, died at her homo, on Thursdav night, of last week, of dropsy. She was buried at Williams -r cemetery Friday. A protracted meeting has beon in progress at Sugar Ridge school house, about 4 or 5 miles south of this place, for nearly 3 weeks, hy Revs. Keer, Thomas, ' Hedge, and Powers. A great many conversions hare already taken place, and the church has beeu greatly revived and strengthened. The furhuver Campbell, of Kiuox county, who was missed about two weaka ago, turned up all right. lie Md simply gone West, left his wifs to her imagiuatiod, the neighbors to eeine the river for him and to threateu to hang three ot hie‘neighbor* for killing him. ^ Gas well No. 5, at Princeton, has proven a failure. It was sunk lo a depth of 650 feet, passed through the rocks which furnished gas to the other wells, but no ges was found. W. It. Wright, who revived the interest in gat at Princeton, has' become discouraged and has withdrawn from the Presidency of the Utility Gas and Mining Company, Rumor has it that a prize ftglit li to take place in Peteasburg iu the near fhtnre between two local would-be athletes. Those people who lisve been Condemning shows and dancing on the grounds of their being immoral, have in this something to complain about.

Charles G. Conn gave a banquet to the employes of his musical instrument factory ou Thursday night ol last week at Elkhart, I ml., and appointed six of them as a managing board of the concern, with a view tc dividing next year's net profits with the men. Conn will retain 28 pei cent, of the earnings, and the othei 72 per cent, will be paid over to tht men ou Feb. 1,1892. The mauagiug board is instructed to divide the hands into three classes—those whe are industrious, faithful and moral, who have been in coutiuuous employment ai nee January 29, 1887; thosr who are moral, faithful and industrious, who worked eontiuuouslv from January 29,1891; those whose habit! are not moral, but who are faithfui in discharge of their duty. Theii shares will be graded accordingly As the Conn factory is a paying con cern, this scheme of the eccentric pro prietor means something substantial On Saturday, February 28, the fol lowing townships in Dubois count) will vote on \ proposition tor a 2 pei cent, tax to aid in the building of tin Monon extension from French Lie! through Jasper to F.vaetville: liar bison, Columbia,~ftainbridgo, an* Marion. The sum asked from each township is: Marion,$2,947 ;_Ilarbison *5,023.20; Bain ridge, *11,018.30: Colombia, $2,829. As the railroad company asks that this tax be voted unconditionally, a good deal of strong opposition is likely to be made to voting it by the citizeus of the several townships. Madison township petitioned for the election with the condition that the road pass through Ireland. This the company refused to accept,and no election was ordered in that township. The Jasper Courier says the line is.likely to: run through Holland, and thence entirely across Warrick county, and not touching Madison township in Duboii county, or Pike county.

The new Congressional apportionment. which will doubtless soon be made a law by the President’s signature, will go into effect for the elections which will be held in 1892. Uuder it the representation in the House will be Increased from 382 to 356. The following States will each gain one member: Alabama, Arkansas, California,Colorado, Georgia, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri. New Jersey, Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin. Illinois, Minnesota, Pennsylvania and Texas gain two, and Nebraska gaius three. The representation of the other States remains as it is; no state loses a representative. Illinois, which now has 20—one loss than Ohio—will have 22 under the pew apportionment. Pennsylvania will have 30, and New York 34. Texas will have 13—the same as Indiana. Wisconsin will have 10— the same as the old Slates of Virginia and Tennessee. The Stales that will have bul one representative to their two Senators are Delaware, Idaho, Montana, Nevada. North Dakota and Wyoming. Stafford Whalen and Mrs. Lillie Hampton, of Howarrtsbnrg, Ky., eloped from that city about six weeks ago, Whalen deserting a wife and three children and Mi's. Hampton forsaking a devoted husbaud and a trio of infants. Thursday morning as the police were about to arrest Whalen, Mrs. Hampton seized a revolver and fatally shot herself just above the heart, afterwards she fired a shot at Whalen without effect, and was preparing to fire another when a policeman wrenched lire weapon from her grasp. She expressed regret that she missed Whalen, as she said she loved him so dearly that she wanted him to die with her. Wlialou was arrested and lodged in jail. Mrs. Hampton since died.

Huntingburg Argus: A committee of. our citizens composed of D. Reutepohlr, F. 11. I’oetker, A. Ramsbrok,J. H. Eggersaud C. C.Schreeder, accompanied by J. Pickhardl of the Sigoal, went to lloliaud Monday to ihterwiew the’citizens of that place, for the purpose Of securing their cooperation fci an effort to secure the Mouou extension through lliintingburg and Holland. They found the citizens duly aroused to the imporance of securing the road. The committee returned well pleased with their visit and with kind tcelings toward the citizens ol: Holland, with whom we hope to communicate by rail in the near future. A Daviess county paper aayt: James flays, an old veteran of the war aolvecl the problem of incessant toil at meager pay by giving over into his wife's hands all the property he had. Then he made application for a permanent heme in Dayton 0., prepared for old veterans. Last Saturday he started for his new home. His wife and daughter will remain here and the^ten dollar pension per month will support them. A litterary society meets at Alford, two miles east of this pJaeeJevWy Friday night. Miss Maggie Chamberlain is the President, and Miss Maud Crow ia the Secretary. The society next Friday evening will discuss the married and the single man— which is the happier? The Ladles who managed the Supper aud Festival for the benefit ol the Catholic Church dan ire to return their thanks to the people of Petersburg who aided them so generously. The amount realized was 997.00 lor which they are truly thankful. Dr. Darby, who was reported in this paper sometime ago as being in dangerously delicate health, is now said to be about to rogain hi* former good health.

THE LEGISLATURE., Evansville wants the Indiana Legislature to vote 140,000 for establishing a normal school at that place. Such should never be done, for the reason that the State is not able to do tilt is not generally known that the State has a big claim against the Terre Haute ft Indianapolis It. It., amounting to $2,000,000 or $3,000,000, which is never to be paid if the corporation can get out of it—and so far its scheme of repudiation has been allowed to go on. The legislature of 18S9 ordered the State officers to bring the road to titne, but no atteution was ever paid to the instructions—the supposition being that the secretary of state was too busy strutting in front of the mirror dressed in uniform and badges as the son ef his father, that the attorney geueral was too busy trying to run the Republican campaign, and that the governor was too busy trying to defeat every measure that the legislature endorsed. The instructions to sue the road or make it pay the debt are to be renewed by the present legislature, and as the present attorney general is a known hustler there is a prospect that the State will get its money. The Illinois Legislature continues to go through with the daily formality of a ballot for United States Senator. The same condition of affairs exists in South Dakota. Councticut still finds herself without State officers. Iu fact the records of the majority of the Legislatures thus far shows them to be perfectly barren of results.

A petition has been signed by a number of our citizens to be sent to the Indiana Senate, and also one to be sent to the House, asking that a law be passed for the purpose of regulating railroad freights within the limits of the State. It is claimed that the railroad discriminations are in favor of certain centers and are against the towns surrounding such places. For example: you can buy a ticket toward the favored places for less money than you can get a ticket from the same place even for the same distance, and factories located in towns in which railroad magnates arc not interested often must cease to do business because the railroads purposely make the freight rates so high. The Fee and Salary Bill, win a conuty like Knox, allows $3,000.00 a year to each officer. The Alllianee men who planted the seed for this bill would better be looking out for a thorough revision. They will do well, also, to look out lor that printer bill that is certain (e curse the people for a monopoly’s benefit if it becomes a law. The Democrats are, as a rule, more opposed to monopoly than any other class, aed we therefore predict that they will not permit such laws to curse the people. True, we need some changes, but the changes should lie for the better, and not for the worse. Gent’s wife whipping bill was defeated because of a lack of a constitutional quorum when it came tip in ths house. The bill p'rorided for the punishment of wife beaters by a whipping—a White Gapping as it were. The sub-committee in the legislature appointed to draft a fee and salary bill agreed upon a bill and it was introduced iuto the House. The following is a brief synopsis ot the bill.

me salaries ot the state officers shall lie as follows: Governor, $5Q|tX); Auditor of State, $4000; Tteaserer State $3,000; Secretary State ,$3,300*; Attorney General, 3,500; State ! Librarian, $1,500; Clerk of the Supreme Court, $3,000; Superintendent! of Public Institution, $2, 500; Reporter of Supreme Court, 4,000; State geologist, $3,000; Insjiector of idinet stud iuspector of natural gas, $1,200 each ; Chief Bureau Statistics, $1,500;' Secretary Board of Health, $1,200; Judges of the Supreme court, $4,000; Judges of the Circuit court, $2,500; Judges of Criminal courts, $2,000; Prosecuting attorneys receive t salary of $500 per year and fees as cow allowed by law. For the purpose of fixing the salaries of the county officers in tbs state the several counties are divided into tiiue classes, according to their popuulation as ascertained by the federal census of 1890, which classes shall be known as First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth,Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth. Pike County comes in the third class, haring a population ot about 18,600. In counties «f this class the Clock, Auditor, Treasurer an(1 Sheriff are to receive a salary of $1,500 for first 1,500 inhabitants, and $50 to each additional thousand and fraction oyer 500, so that these officers will get under the new law $1,700 each per year. The Recorder will get $1,350 for each l,500ihhabitents, and $50for each additional 1,000 inhabitants. This makes the Recorder's salary $1,450 In this county. The Co. Stipt's salary is cut to $3 a day. For particulars ^!the Indiana House and Senate, see page one.

m Oakland City £nterp)%ue: Ralph I Smith, who just got out of jail a few days ago atter laying out his fine for striking Sprinlea during the fair here last fall, filed an affidavit in 'Squire Wilhelm's court Tuesday, against Sprinkles tor drunkenness. He paid his fine and prosecuted Smith for the same offense, and on account of inability to either pay hia fine or give bail he was returned to the county bastile. The entertainment given at Fleming's hall last Thursday evening by the ladies of the Catholic church resulted in a net profit of about forty dollars. Those that were directly interested are well pleased with the result. Dave Sqnire, a negro, and Lizzie Tillatson, a Caucasian, were married in Knox co., some time ago, and seem to live together as happily as if they were of one blood. The K. P.
