At tho opening of each term of court the sheriff nornin-

ates his two riding bailiffs, court room bailiff and grand jury bailiff, wjio are appointed by the judge and an allowance made each for their services. Judge Neal justi fies his action by saying that it is a practical impossibility for the sheriff to pay two bailiffs out of the meagre salary allowed him. A test of this matter is likely to be made soon.

A severe cold wave will come behind these storms. Reactionary temperature and storms will touch the 23d and 24th, followed by returning cold, until the last day of the month, at which time rising temperature and coming storms will be the order. Don't forget or neglect the poor dumb creatures that depend upon you for food and shelter. Their suffering will be your loss.

In the circuit court this week Judge Taylor rendered a decision which has a material bearing on the state tax law. Last year after the county board had passed on the assessment returns the state board of tax commissioners took the matter up and largely increased the assessment of the First National bank. The tkx levy was made against the revised assessment, and the bank petitioned the court to enjoin the treasurer from collecting on the increase made by the state board. The court held that the state board has no right to alter the assessment made by the county board, unless the "matter comes before it on appeal. In this case there was no appeal, consequently the assessment made by the county board stands. The decision also effects the Terre Haute Brewing company, whose assessment was raised in the same way.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure Is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patieut strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address, F. J.
