HEWS OF THE WEEK, The Cause of Suspension of Veterans Pensions. The Fee and Salary Law Again K in Trouble. Tartans llems of Sews—Rational, State and Countj. I Clear, Concise and True statement* of Ike Happening*. f HE KEPBLICAN CLERKS Alleged to ke Ue*pon*lbie for Pen* sion Bu»pensions. Congressman Taylor, of the First Indiana district, is^camping on the trail of the republicans who are holding office in the pension bureau. Several times during the debate on the pension appropriation bill Mr. Taylor took a hand asking questions and making statements all tending to confirm the aliegations.in his resolu-1 tion introduced a few weeks ago to j investigate the bureau. j “My attention was first called to j the fact that 6ome systematic plan prevailed iii the medical division for the purpose of discrediting the administration by the threatened suspension of several worthy-pensioners in the First district,” said Mr. Taylor. “I made an examination and lound that the clerk, iu briefing the evidence, had either corruptly or ignorantly misstated the facts, and had marked the cases for rejection, when it was not satisfied by the eyidence on file. I called the attention of Judge • Lochran to the fact and he promptly • restored the person-^whose pension was uuder consideration to the rolls. I deemed the hiatter worthy of sojne investigation, and in the examination found that in the division where the rejections, suspensions and reductions were made there were 144 ex

a m i Users. Of this number 116 were! republicans, some of them tho chief officers iu the division. I found that this proportion of republicans would hold good iu every department ol the pension btireau. These republican employes are held there uuder the rules ol the service, and when their attention is called to these errors, plead that it is a mistake and not au intentional wrong.” “Many other tacts are now in my knowledge indicating a systematic attempt of republican employes to discredit the administration. I do not care to forestall the investigation to be made under the resolution I introduced last week. Suffice it to say, that I believe that facts will be 'Oipated sufficient to convince one of ordinary judgement that these injustices complained of by pensioners is the work primarily of republican and not democratic officials.” STORMED TI1E LODGE. PLotiters. Wives, Daughters and Sisters Surprise the Kuighls. Last Thursday evening the Knights of Pythias had a very interesting meeting made so by the very untfsual number cf Knights being present. v But that was not all. At half past eight o’clock there was an alarm at the outer door and a number of persons were there who were without the password or any other means of * gaining admission, but they were uot to be put out and crowded into the outer room without word or hindrance, the doorkeeper being powerless to help himself. This intrusion was reported to the lodge at once, aud it was agreed to let them in. The doors wore opened and in came the 'mothers, wives, daughters and sisters and sons of the Knights bringing with them baskets filled with all the delicacies of the season. Then followed * reason of music and a general good time, wheu the ladies began to make preparations for the feast. Lapboards were brought forlb gnd distributed among those present jaden with a nice lunch and icecream which was devoured by the hungry Knights, gs none but they can on an occasion of this kind. Speeches followed the luuch, in. which the ladies were highly praised for the complete surprise which they had successfully completed on the members of the lodge. Col. Henry Hiatt, of the Sixth brigade U. K., of Washington, being fiipeept installed the ofljeers of

tersbiirg division No. 40. The division were in full uuifoint which made a very appropriate close of the evenings pleasure. j In this connection it is bnt just to say that the ladies can keep a secret -from their husbands as well as the husband from the wife. The surprise was complete, but three of the members of the lodge being taken into the confidence of the ladies, iu order *hat a full attendance of the members might be induced to attend on that evening. We are forced to admit that theiadies can keep a secret. The occasion wiy be long remembered by the K.of Ps as one of the most pleasant occasions iu the history of the lodge. . j WANT A REHEARING. The Fee and Salary Law Again In the supreme Court. The fee and salary trouble has come to the front again in the Supreme court ou 1. petition for a rehearing in the original case of Sheriff Stout, of Vigo couuty. Fifteen days are given the attorneys, to prepare and file briefs. The petition holds that the supreme court erred iu its decisiou in finding that the law was not a violation ot the constitution, which declares that the subject of the law shall he given iu the title, and that the act is special. It is also contended that the la\V is not uniform m its operations, and that it caunot be upheld in part aud defeated in part. Another fee and salary suit came op toj the supreme court yesterday on appeal from Lake-county. The suit is brought by the state on the relation of Thomas McCoy against John F. Krost, recorder of Lake county. In his decision Judge Gillette, of the Lake circuit court, held the law to be unconstitutional. It is asserted that the lower court erred§in overruling a motion for a new trial and for this reason the decision should be revers-. ed. Attorneys on both sides have asked that the court hear oral argument. j TEN FEARS.

Perry Debry Pleatln Guil ty and Goes to fj»e Penitentiary. Perry Debry, who attempted to assassinate Ed McAtee at his home near Oatsviile in Logan township, Thursday, January 11th, plead guilty to the charge of attempted murder before Judge Welborn last week aud on Thursday the court sentenced him to the penitentiary lor ten years. He is but nineteen years of age, yet he has been in several scrapes before. Last October he was tried iu the Gibson circuit court for larceny, but his youthfulness secured for him light punishment, but not being satisfied he attempted to assassinate McAtee by shooting him six times, nOue of the shots being fatal, although they were very paiuful wounds. He waived all formalities of a trial and plead guilty before the court on the charge. Sheriff lvinmau took the young mau to the penitentiary Saturday evening lust. nOKE SHOOTING. Clay Towuship Has u Little Fracas. -M* Oho Hurt. Last Saturday evening at the residence of John TV. Merrick, who lives on the road between Oatsviile' and Union, occurred a (little shooting scrape between Frank Merrick and Elmer Smith, in which the latter fired a revolver at Merrick, but luckily the bullet'flew wide of the mark. Just how the trouble arose is not known, only that it was over Smith going with Merrick's sister who is about fourteCu years of age. Sunday Merrick came to the city and sworp out a warrant for Smith’s arrest. The papers were placed in the hands of Constable Stone aud Marshal Battles who made the arrest the same evening and brought the prisoner to this city ar.d placed him in jail. Ha will likely he tried at this term^of the circuit court. TOWNSHIP TAX. Decision off the Supreme Court in Relation to Taxes. ; The supreme court has passed upon | the question of taxing city property ! for township purposes. The case was I an appeal from Carroll county. Tbe opinion was by Judge Hackney. He said that if there was such instances where both the city and toww^Kp would derive mutual benefit from such taxation it could be imposed, but, so far as he could discover, there are do mutual benefits that could result from it. The township trustee can not, therefore, raise revenue within a city by taxation for improvement of roads and for the support of schools in the towuship outside of the city. H. H.

Three days is a very short time In which to cure a bad case of rheumatism; but it ean be done, if the proper treatment is adopted, as will be seen by the following from James Lambert, of Xewbrunswiek, 111.: “I was badly afflicted with rheumatism in the hips and legs, when I bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It cured me in three days. I am all right today; and would insist on every one who is afflicted with that terrible disease to use Chamberlain's Pain Balm and get well at once.” 50 cent bottles for sale by J. K.

All druggists sell the Balsam. 44-8 “The people of this vicinity insist on having Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and do not want any other,” says John V. Bishop, of Portland SIMs, Indiana. That is right.
