DANVILLE, Ind., June 1.—This community stems to be willing Ho let the law take its course and the talk of lynching Harvey Moon, murderer of Constable Oliver Wilhite and Mrs. George Baldock has

died ont.

It is said the indictment trial of Moon will be speedy, soon as Corner Allred makes finding, Pilasecutor Sears will

the grand jury.

So far Moon has not consulted an attorney, and refuees to talk It is probable the court will appoint an attorney to defend him, and that an insanity pTea will be made. On complaint of his father an insanPy commission investigated MuLn's condition three weeks ago, and pronounced him sane. Attorneys say that the very fact of a commission having been apopinted notwithstanding their finding, gives a good opening for an Insanity

plea.

Talking to a friend at the jail. Moon said that he shot Obnstale Wilhite is self-defense because he thought the constable was going to kill him, but that he did not kill Mrs. Baldock—that he did not see

her.

That the Putnam County CourtHouse is widely known is snown by the fact that three men, James E. Haines, H. R. Stevenson and Lewis Roemer, of Salem, 111., mane a special trip here Wednesday afternoon da see it. The men were appointed as a committee by the commissioners of the county in which Salem is located, to come to Greencastle and get some pointers. A new (ourt-house is being built at Salem. Several months ago, Mr. Stevenson and the Judge of the Salem Clmrt were here get ing lines on the way to build a model court building. The men here Wednesday were getting information on decorations, lighting and furnishing of a legal home. James McD. Hays escorted the men through the court-house and gave them all the informatibn possible. This is not the first time that representatives of distant places have come to Greencastle to see the local building. Greencastle should he proud to have the distinction of being the place of attraction flbr counties building or contemplating the building up-to-

date court houses.

t he Local Exchange, of recent uaie, publissned at Natick, Massachutis, prints the following in regain to Dr. Morris H. Turk, a luiiner resuKut of Greencastle, *\ ho married Miss Ollie Hays daughter of Mr. F. A. Hays. ’ At the morning service at the Congregation Church last Sunnay. iNeacon' Win. R. Bigelow read letter from Dr. Barton, secretary of the American Board extending an invitation to Dr. Turk to be a member ot a connuissiou to make an extended tour of the mission n.aifjus of European and Asiatic Turkey. This came not only as a surprise to the pastor but to his people as well. It is planned that the commission shall spend at least six mouths beginning in January, 1912, in a careful examinatiou and study of complex problems of the mission work througlljut the Turk-

ish Empire.

"An ’’All Turkey” conference is planned for July, 1912, at which the various phases of the work will be reported and discussed This commission is recognized as one of the most important ever sent out by the American Board. It will consist of four or five persons who are all ministers or college professors under the leadership of Dr. Barton. This is without question one of the greatest Honors not only to Dr. Turk but also to the First Congregation church of Natick, that pastor and people may have the privilege of serving the American Board in this high calling ,of service. Deacon Bigelow also stated that Dr. Bartfon would be present at the meeting of the church and parish on next Thurs

day evening.”

The option election at BloomingIon, on Wednesday, gave an officially announced majority of 23 in favor of licensed saloons. The interest in the election was centered in the vote of the students of Indiana University. Nearly 20U students voted. At one time in the court-house precinct more than a score 'of students were lined up ready to go into the booth. The •‘wets'’ began to issue whereabouts

challenges.

The "drys” were prepared, however, and had two forms of printed affidavits ready for the students who desired to make oath that they were qualified t’o vote. They also prepared lor this contingency by having a Mg stack of bonds all tilled out and propelu> signed in the bauds of Sheriff Browning, and when the students were led clown to jail by the constables they were ushered into the jail parlor, where their bonds were all ready. It was no unconit^m sight to see a constable on the way to jail with a student on each arm, followed by a crowd of from a half dozen to twenty-five students, all anxious to

witness the outcome.

But for the aid of nearly 200 Indiana University sxvtrforne, the ‘‘wet” majority, it is believed, would have been much larger, as it is believed the ‘‘drys’’ got practically all the college vote. Two years ago the city voted out thirteen saloons by more than 500 majority, and the presence of so many ‘‘blind tigers” is given as the cause ’of a change in sentiment. Eight men have already applied for licenses and their petitions will be heard at the next meeting of the county commissioners on next Monday. The ‘'wets” received the returns Wednesday night with great elation. They did not make much of a stir during the campaign, but were much more active than the drys” today and were conceded to have the best Organization at the voting places. The “drys” assert that the “wets” arrested three students early in the day. merely as a bluff to frighten the remainder from making an attempt to vote, but it did not work. As soon as the students learned that they would be bailed out of jail promptly there was a rush for the polling places. The “dry” committee issued the following note to the students early

Wednesday morning:

'A committee of some thirty-five prominent citizens of BloomingtDn have agreed to defend any legal voter whose vote is challenged in Wednesday’s election and against whom the threat of prosecution Is used. This committee is composed of "dry” citizens win hope to counteract the influence of threats of prosecution made by the “weta.” The promise of financial aid and legal assistance is made to all legal voters without distinction.”

The funeral of Miss Agnes R. Rankin, who died Saturday night at her home at 1890 North Alabama street, was held at that place at 4 o'clock ’Monday afternuLn. The services were conducted by the Rev. Joshua Stansfield. The body was brought to Greencastle Tuesifay morning, arriving here at 8:50 over the Vandalia and taken immediately to Forest Hill cemetery, where short services were

held.

Miss Rankin had been in failing health several years. Death was due to a valvular affection of the heart, and tl> dropsy. She Is survived by two sisters, Mrs. B. Wilson and Miss Louisa M. Rankin, both of this city Four of her brothers, James A Orville, Sr. John R. and EHsha CRankin, served as volunteers from Butnam county in the civil war. Agnes R.

1 #05.

WORK OF CIVIC UNION

Tbw Times, publishes! ingtoa City, tells of a sprinting record made Paul Jones, a cousin of ence Dunbar, Mrs. W,

and Miss Emma JLi.ee of this city,

as follows:

“The great middle-distance runner of all time is a title that is today concoeded to John Paul Jones, of this city, by field and track experts who witnessed the interqpl-. legiate championship meet on Sat-

urday.

“Not Only did Jones play a most prominent part in putting Cornell in front, but he broke two records—one the world mark to the mile and the other the Intercollegiate mark in the half mile. “In 1895 Tommy Connlff ran the full mile in 4:15 3-5, which was a record which had been unheard of up to that time, and the ’opinion was freely ven ured that it vaelc^ be years before these figures were bettered by an amateur athlete. The record stood until last Saturday, when Jones, In the prime of shape, simply ran the fast field against him off Its feet and when ho broke the tape the watches of the corps of competent timers showed that he had negotiated the full distance in 4:15 2-6. While this is a but a fraction of a second off Gunniff's mark, the fact that 1 Jones is so far ahead of any runner of this time would indicate that his record will stand for many a

day.

"In the half mile he scored another five points for Corneyy by not | only winning the half mile run, but smashing all intercollegiate records by finishing in ,1:54 4-5, and In so doing disposing of such stars as Jacques, of Harvard, and Bodley, of Penn., both of whom had been expected tlo prove dangerous to the man who got his first experience in running In this city.
