Another enactment of the proposed new law prohibits the solicitation of a divorce case by advertisement, circular or otherwise, and prescribes for such an offense a fine of not more Ilian $1,000 and imprisonment of not
more than one year.
Annulment of the marriage contract as distinguished from divorce will be made for the following
causes:
Impotency, consanguinity, existing former marriage, fraud, force or coercion, Insanity and illegal age. I Divorce, it Is provided, shall be of Iwo kinds—absolute and divorce from 'jbed and board. Under the first classification the grounds shall be adultery, bigamy, conviction and sentence for crime, followed by two years continual desertion and habitual drunk-
enness for two years.
The same causes will prevail in the second class, with the additional cause of "hopeless insanity of the
husband.”
No divorce shall be granted if it appears to the satisfaction of the court that the suit has been brought to by collusion or that the plaintiff has procured or connived at the offense charged or has condoned it, or has been guilty of adultery not condoned. The new law also makes some important changes in the practice and procedure necessary in divorce cases
nd their trial.

Movement for the Increase of Rural Route Carriers Salary or Salary.
Efforts probably will be made at the coming session of Congress to secure an appropriation which will justify an increase in the salaries of the 36,427 rural letter carriers. Three days ago Mr. Hitchcock, First Assistant Postmaster General, put in a plea in the form of a recommendation for an increase of pay for post office clerks and carriers in cities, and now comes Mr. DeGraw, Fourth Assistant Postmaster General, with a plea for the rural carriers, whose pay was Increased in the fifty-seventh Congress. It is strongly urged In behalf of the rural carriers that they are entitled to a greater compessatlon and that It might be in the form of an allow-
ance for horse hire.

Ben Lee and George Rankin, former colored policemen of Indianapolis, returned last night to that city, from a trip to Kentucky, where they had been iu search of Jesse Coe, the negro murderer of Patrolman Russell. Lee could uot be found last nlgbt and Rankin was much averse to discussing the man hunt. The men, who are colored, were formerly Indianapolis policemen. When asked if they had seen Coe Rankin would neither deny nor affirm. Finally he said that he and Lee had been on a farm of about 100 acres owned by the Coes. He also said that they had seen the mother of George Williams, who killed Patrolman Pettlcord, and had talked to her, but would tell nothing of what was said. The two men went down to Kentucky about ten days ago. Asked what he thought the chances were of capturing Coe, Rankin said that he thought it could be done if not put off too long, but that a posse should be organized that

W. C. Duncan, slate statistical agent of the department of agriculture of the United States government of Columbus, Ind., was in the city today gleaning what information he could of the crop conditions. He held a conference while here with James Wilson, who Is the reporter for this county. He stated to Mr. Wilson that the wheat crop of the state was looking fine and the acreage is much larger than usual. Mr. Duncan makes about three counties per day until he canvasses the whole state.—Crawfordsvllle Journal.

Trust Company to Administer on their estates after death. One of the most popular features of this company is Its Savings Department, which has more than doubled in the past year. Anyone wishing to open an account can do so by depositing one dollar or more and have the Interest computed and credited to their account January and July 1st. They have sold within the past two years, more than one hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth of bonds of various kinds, all of which have been promptly paid at maturity, and this department of the business of the Company is developing strength and vigor. The people of Putnam county who may have need of such services as can be secured from the Central Trust Company of Greencastle can consult the officials with confidence and with the assurance, also, that business committed to them will receive the best and most satisfactory attention.

One of Greencastle’s druggists, who is quite an enthusiastic fisherman—we won’t mention any name, but he runs a little store up by the University—decided the other morning that it was an Ideal day to go to the creek and get a string of base All morning he hurried along with hls work In order that he might get away early after dinner for hls little expedition. During hls Idle moments he got hls fishing tackle and other neceseities together, so that when the time came to leave he would have nothing to detain him. Soon after 1 o’clock he started for the creek. It being a fine day he decided that he would get some much needed exercise by walking. He chose the north route and was soon plugging down the road toward the pumping station. Reaching the creek, he walked down It’s bank until he found a place where ttie bass were sure to be . UnwrapIng hls tackle, he was about to prepare for an afternoon’s sport, when he suddenly remembered that he had failed to put hls fishing rod In hls package. It is said that Walter, lets call him Walter, went home by the way of the 80 acres. He now says that he went more for the exercise, anyhow.
