DRISCHEL IN TROUBLE
Cambridge City Minion of the Law May Lose His Position.
PROSECUTOR TAKES HAND.
Prosecutor Jessup has filed an affidavit against Marshal Dan Drischel of .Cambridge City, charging him with assault and .battery on William Armstrong, a driver for the Starr Piano company. The prosecutor states that Jie will appear before the town board of Cambridge City and demand that Drischel be discharged from office because he attempted to "graft" an illegal fee In connection with Armstrong's arrest for damaging a rig belonging to George- Schaefer of East Germantown. According to the statement made by Jessup, Armstrong was arrester at Centerville Monday by Marshal George Saunders of that town, and at the instillation of Marshall Drischel. Drischel arrived in Centerville shortly after Armstrong had been arrested and demanded of Saunders that Armstrong be surrendered to him. Saunders informed Drischel that Armstrong was his prisoner and that he did not intend to deliver him over to the Cambridge City marshal. He stated that the Starr Piano company would stand good for the damages done the Schaefer rig and that he intended to allow Armstrong to return to Richmond. When Schaefer was asked the amount of his damages, Prischel answered for him, stating that it would cost $20 to have the rig repaired. This amount was. as a guarantee of good faith, placed in the hands
of a Centerville liveryman by a friend of Armstrong. Tuesday Drischel returned to Centerville and again demanded the custody of Armstrong. This time he informed Marshal Saunders that the damages to the rig would only amount to $10, but that he must be paid a 2 fee for his services. Saunders refused , to pay him. Prosecutor Jessup states lhat the actual amount charged by Andrew Rigle for repairing the damaged rig was only Sr.. Drischel insists that Rigle told Schaefer the costs would be more. The charge of assault and battery has been placed against Drischel, because he roughed Armstrong tip considerably Monday, while attempting to take him from Marshal Saunders.

FLOOD VICTIMS ARE ILL.
Princeton, Ind.. Feb. 22 The ,real suffering from the Hood has begun. Entire families have become ill and are shut off from medical aid. In some cases, according to reports reaching Princeton today, there Is danger of starvation. Families are crowded together in the houses which are out of reach of the food. SutTounded for several days by
water ranging from twelve inches to en feet deep with only a limited supply of provisions and fuel and with no boat available, the families of John
Stewart, John Roberts and Allen
Lyles, colored, were sorely afflicted
They dressed in heavy clothes and waded water three-quarters of a mile to the home of Robert Hall, where
they secured a wagon and team and drove to Patoka, four miles distant,
Tor provisions and medicine. Find Victims III.
It is believed there are many others
!n that section who are cut off by the water. Much sickness is reported in the vicjnity of Wheeling, this county, where the buck water from the Patoka spread over a vast area. The Jlood has broken all records in that section. Rescue parties yesterday visited the home of Ixu-enzo Morrow which is surrounded by water, where they found the familv sick.
'The Girl From Broadway." A new musical comedy from .the pen of Herbert Hall Winslow, styled "The Girl From Broadway" and responsible for its production to O'Brien H. Mack, is the attraction for tonight at the Gennett. It is a three-act comedy set to music and deals with the trials of a pretty circus rider, who, tir
ing of life in the sawdust arena, takes
French leave and between the en
deavors of the owner of the enterprise
to induce her to return, and the plotting of a flint-hearted old aunt who learns, by chance that the girl is the rightful owner to the fortune she has been enjoying, endeavors to keep her in ignorance of the same, the heroine is bustled about until she captures the heart of a millionaire artist, who rescues her from her tormentors and restores her fortune. The piece is unique, in that it is embellished with a score or more of quaint characters from that mystic palace the interior of a circus dressing tent.
of our theatre. In spite of the very xlull times, the theatre was packed to
standing room when the curtain went up on the first act. It didn't take the company long to make good, either. In the very outset they promptly captured the good will of our townspeople by giving one of the cleanest and strongest plays ever presented here at any price. This clever company begins it's engagement Monday night at the Gennett presenting "A Russian Nihilist" as the opening bill. Ladies tickets Monday night as usual.
legal he was tendered a professorship in the science department of his alma mater, and afterward by the Ohio State university. Both offers he declined for the sake of his chosen profession, the law, in which he has built up an extensive practice and is held in the highest esteem by his fellow practitioners. Although not a politician in the commonly accepted meaning of the term he is called into the councils of his party as one whose judgment is to be relied upon. For ten years he held the office of city attorney of Richmond, and was a member of the legislature from 18!1 to lSfC During his second term as representative, his party being in the minority, he received the complimentary vote for speaker of the house, which made him the floor leader during the session. Mr. Lindemuth at the very beginning joined the people's movement for better and cheaper telephone service. As a citizen and in the interest of his
sessment of state associations at

Mark Stamp the means of raising funds for the International association
Such is the man and such are his
qualifications, whom the allied Inde
pendent Telephone companies of the United States and Canada have selected to manage their common interests
during the coming year. That he will do so successfully is evidenced by the
success the Indiana association has
achieved during his two years as pres
ident. Allied with no special interest
and none of his own to serve, a practic
al telephone man of wide acquaintance
with telephone conditions, a student, a lawyer, a politician in the highest
sense of that word, we believe the In

make an experiment in its selection of its president. We owe to him our
fullest co-operation as the only re
maininK element necessary to assure
complete succes for the association
during the present year.

COSTLY DRUGS.
Soml Rr and Peculiar SubtfariMS Usd In Medicine. A writer in Wissen fuer Alle throws some interesting light ou rare and peculiar drugs. Saffron, he points out, would strike an ordinary observer as decidedly expensive at ?Li a pound (to change marks into our coiuage) until told that It is composed of the central tunair portions only of the flowers of the crocus, 70,000 of which it takes to make a pound. Attar of roses sells at $112 odd per pound, and it takes 10,000 pounds, or nearly five tons of roses, to obtain oue pound of the oil. Aconitine. extracted from the root of monkshood, is said to be Ihe very strongest poison extant, the dse being one six-hundredth of grain. It is sold at the rate of $ 108 per ounce. Turning from the vegetable to the animal world in search of rare drugs, the writer refers to the musk of the Asiatic deer, which at $24 to $30 an ounce must be a prtae to the wily hunter. In some of the tropical seas a floating, sweet smelling mass of ambergris Is met with worth at present $30 per ounce, or $4S0 per pound In the market. The ambergris is said to be the diseased biliary product of th whale. Another peculiar product in u.-- a:; a drug Is a solution of the pure v enuai of the rattlesnake, given occasionally In malignant scarlet fever.
Repertoire at the Gennett.
Next week's stock company attraction at the Gennett will be something
quite out of the ordinary according to reports. The company comes to Richmond most highly recommended. The Elwood Call Leader says: Last night's opening play, '"The Russian Nihilist," given by the Hutton-Bailey Stock company took everybody by surprise, including Manager Kramer. Of course we knew the company had a splendid reputation and we really did expect a pretty good show. But the Quality of last nUht's
performance went so far ahead of all previous stock company productions ever given here, as to make the occasion a red letter event in the history
Vaudeville at the Phillips. Management of the New Phillips will look to the Weber family, acrobats and equilibrists, for the headline act of next week. This family is reported to be one; of the most clever in
this particular line, appearing in vaudeville. It is expected they will give
the patrons of the house some features new in this style of entertainment; something so good that they will perforce sit up and take notice. Other features on the program for the week are a piano overture by Miss Eva Hazeltine; John Max. German comedian and wooden shoe dancer; illustrated song, "Here's to Our Absent Brothers"; John Woodford and Jeanette Marlboro, presenting a refined comedy playlet entitled "A Timely Lesson"; Joo Golden, entertainer; and the cameragraph shows "The Prisoners' Escape", depiction of a thrilling experience in prison life. The bill is all new, for the supply of vaudeville performers seems never to be exhausted, despite; the demand that
is made on it week in and week out, almost through the entire year. There will be the usual three points of special interest in the week's order of events a souvenir matinee for the ladies on Wednesday, a special mat
inee for the children on Saturday and : a chance for the amateurs on Friday ; night. Th3 present pleasing bill will be concluded with the performance of t-1 night. Those who have not yet seen J it will not regret doing so as some of the acts are of special interest. This
is notably true ot the Jioston terriers, who have a clever and highly amusing stunt.
St. Petersbur, Feb. 22 The frustration in this city of a terrorist plot and the arrest of no less than fifty men and women for alleged complicity was followed by the capture of several other persons implicated in the abortive attempt at assassination, who were gathered in just as they were trying to escape. The police believe that they have made the most important move against the terrorists that has been engineered in several years. The most recent plot of yesterday
came very much nearer maturity than did the last unsuccessful conspiracy against the emperor, the participants in which were tried and condemned last July. According to the police the band that started out yesterday to do murder had two victims in view. Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaievitch, son of Grand Duke Michael, and M. Chtcheglovitoff, the minister of justice. The police had been informed of what was in the air and took steps accordingly. The arrests followed. Most of the prisoners are between 17 and 21 years, well dressed and well supplied with money.
