The directors of the Commercial club, Indianapolis, held a meeting 1 and discussed plans of raising the 150,000 more for the G. A. R. encampment by voluntary subscriptions. The funds, it is thought, can be secured easily. Fred Peters was killed by the flying pieces of a broken buzz saw, near Valparaiso. Mrs. J. D. Parkington was killed in a runaway near Milton. f? Wm. C. Towle was promoted to the position of assistant cashier by the T. Hammond Co., at Hammond, and before he had been in that capacity twen-ty-four hours absconded with about SI, OOO of the company’s money. His father is a wealthy broker in New York city. The sheriffs of about one-third of the counties in the state met at the Grand hotel, Indianapolis, to consider the fee and salary law and its relation to them. The meeting authorized the employment of attorneys to bring suit to test the constitutionality of the law. The meeting and its proceedings are in accordance with a plan agreed upon at a conference held during the session of the general assembly, when it was decided not to insist on the legislature amending the law, but to keep quiet until the adjournment, and then bring a suit to test the law. It was stated by delegates to the meeting that it had not yet been decided in which county the suit shall be brought

, Paul Atzpodien, an Evansville reporter, ridiculed Judge Gough and a jury of Boonville. He will be punished for contempt On a flatcar in the Pennsylvania yards, at Columbus, the other day rested the largest wood-split pulley in the world. It is a part of the Reeve’s Pulley Co.’s exhibit which will be made at the World’s fair, and will be shipped, together with other appurtenances to Chicago. It requires two and one-half kegs of nails and 100 pounds of glue to unite the 2,800 pieces of wood, of which it is composed. The pulley is eighteen feet in diameter, has a face surface of four feet, and will be fastened to a shafting eight feet in diameter. The movement to establish a state soldier’s home at Noblesville will not be abandoned because the legislature failed to make an appropriation for it. Eck Burke, a cigar-maker of Logansport, was shot in the neck by Marshal Lunsford, and perhaps fatally injured. He was trying to escape arrest for a minor offense when shot. The annual school oratorical contests of Montgomery county will be held at Crawfordsville, April 29. Every electric light in .Brazil was extinguished by a stroke of lightning a few nights ago, and Mrs. Linck’sbarn was demolished and burned. A peculiar gas explosion occurred at the Spencer hotel, Marion, the other night. The porter, Lyamas Meachern, had gone to the ice-chest and struck a match, when the explosion followed, throwing him several feet backward. His face, neck and arms were burned to a crisp. His eyes were burned out. The chest and the walls of the building were shattered. The Brazil Mining Co., composed of capitalists of Greencastle, Terre Haute, Louisville and Reedville, the other day began sinking a six-hundred-and-nine-ty-eight feet shaft on the Relsvil farm, near Brazil, where gold, silver and zinc were recently discovered. Experts say the output of the mineral will be very great Capitalists of Colorado' have been in Brazil for several days assaying the ore and trying to purchase land. The find has created quite a stir in financial circles.

Wabash county commissioners have authorized the issue of $25,000 of bonds for funding the county indebtedness and to pay for public improvements now under way. They were sold to a Cleveland firm for $25,000. A Stranger arrived in Lebanon a few days since and sought out Prosecutor Dutch, to whom he related that, while passing through the county in 1860, he had broken into a store at Jamestown and stolen some clothing, making his escape. He desired to atone for the crime in pleading guilty and paying a fine. He was informed that the statute of limitation ba.rred prosecution and that he could go free. At Richmond, William Marshall sued Henry Ganen for money lost at cards, and the court has ruled that the latter must tell whether or not he is a common gambler, and does not keep a common gambling house. ■

PANIC DOWN SOUTH.

Intense Kxcitement in Nashville, Tenn.— Three Banking Instltations Have Failed with a Total Involved of Over •3,000,OOO—More Failures Anticipated. Nashville, Tenn., March 38.—Monday there was great excitement on the streets where the banks are located. At 9 o'clock, the hoar the banks open, quite a crowd had gathered at the corner of College and Union streets, in the vicinity of the b.anks, and when the doors were opened a small run was made on the First national, bat the depositors got their money so rapidly that they became convinced that their fright was an error and in nearly every instance rede posited. Two of the smaller banks, both doing business understate charters, at an early hour took advantage of the privileges given them by the law and required sixty days’ notice of the withdrawal of deposits. Both of these banks had savings departments connected with them and upon these two banks the principal runs were made. One of them, the Bank of Commerce, doing a small business with deposits amounting to about 850,000, suspended payments, though it might have availed itself of the sixty days’ notice from depositors. It made a general assignment under the state laws for the benefit of all creditors. This failure is a bad one. The Mechanics* bank, another state institution with a savings department and having many small creditors, opened its doors as usual, but soon it was evident that a run was being made npon it, and the directors met and decided to take advantage of the law re quiring sixty days’ notiee frem depositors and suspended payments. This bank will in all probability resume in a few days. The liabilities of the Bank of Commerce are $97,000; capital stock, $27,000. Asa result of the suspension of the Mechanics’ bank Lewis T. Baxter, the president, made a special assignment Monday for the benefit of the bank and other creditors. The excitement growing out of the failure of the Commercial national bank in this city Saturday night continues to be intense. There are many rumors afloat and it is expected that there will be some startling developments when the affairs of the bank come to be inquired into by the official examiner. Criminal prosecution may follow. Other institutions of the city are thought to be involved in the collapse of the Commercial bank and that of Dobbins & Dazey, which wm the primary cause of the troubles. Afore failures are apt to follow. Over $3,000,000 is involved in the failure of the three banks mentioned above, and at least a dozen small banks in adjacent towns are in temporary financial straits.

A DARING RAID.

Two Unmasked Desperadoes Rob a Kansas Bank of About £4,000. Kansas City, Mo., March 28.—News from the little town of Caney, Kan., tells of a sensational bank robbery there at 3 o’clock Monday afternoon, when three officials of the bank of Caney valley were surprised by two unmasked outlaws who covered them with their revolvers. One was a half-breed Indian, Ed Newcomb, an outlaw, and the other was a white man recognized as the notorious Henry Starr. Cashier Perry Hollingsworth, Assistant Cashier H. A. Scurr and Judge McEnery, vice president of the First national bank of Coffeyville, were the covered officials. Assistant Cashier Scurr went into the vault and closed the door, but Starr ordered Hollingsworth to open the vault, which he did at the point of a pistol. The cashier was then forced to put $2,000 in bank bills and SI,OOO in gold in a sack which Starr held. Then they went through the cash drawers and •ecured SI,OOO more. Seven customers came in while the work progressed, but no chance was offered to alarm the people as each one was made to throw up his hands and line up. Many passed on the street, but the bank was supposed to be closed as it was 3 o’clock. After completing the robbery the two bold highwaymen marched the seven customers and three officers into the baek yard, which has a high board fence. They turned the ten men loose there, and, locking the rear door of th* bank, walked quietly out in front, jumped on their horses and rode away. They were recognized by a dozen citizens. The robbers rode rapidly south into the Indian territory, whicl is but 2 miles away. It was thirty minutes before the town was alarmed, and then a posse was organized and put in pursuit. Five hundred men were rushing horseback over the level prairie toward the nation in an hour. Nothing has been heard from the chase.

Royal Baking Powder Is Absolutely Pure \A7HILE there are so many alum baking pow» ' * ders in the market, the use of which all physicians decide render the food unwholesome and liable to produce dyspepsia and other ailments, housekeepers should exercise the utmost ca're to prevent any powder but the Royal from being brought into their kitchens. In the use of Royal there is an absolute certainty of pure and wholesome food. The official State Chemists report: The Royal Baking Powder does not contain ammonia, alum, lime, nor any injurious ingredients. It is absolutely pure and wholesome. The Government reports show all other baking powders to contain impurities. In the use of any baking powder but Royal there is uncertainty if not actual danger. • It is unwise to take chances in matters of life and health.
