A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLFE.

A 12-year-old boy named .Ben Stohl, while stealing a ride on an E. fc T. ti. freight train near the blast furnace on Tuesday evening, fell under the wheels and had bis left leg mangled in a terrible manner. He was removed to his home on College avenue, where the injured limb was amputated. The little fellow never rallied from the shock, and died on Wednesday morning.

The most complete volume of general information published in this country is The World Almanac, a book of 464 pages, dealing with almost every subject upon which the general reader desires information. It is the most valuable work of its kind extant, and costs only twenty-fiye cents. For sale by E. L. Godecke, of the Opera House Book Store.

The talk of a change in ownership of the Electric Street Railway company was revived this week, and it is alleged that the deal will be closed in a few days, if it has not been consummated already. The purchasers are eastern capitalists, being the same parties who are after the Muncle lines, for which Russell Harrison has been dickering. General Lew Wallace was here in the interests of the syndicate on Wednesday. It is said the deal involves something like $200,000.

The coal operators along the line of the C. & E. I. railroad have been notified not to ship any more coal over that line for the present, because the tracks between Momence and Chicago are blocked with coal. In Vermillion county this is causing considerable embarrassment, nearly one thousand men being thrown out of employment in consequence. The blockade is caused by the great rush ef coal to Chicago, and the sudden change in the weather, which has cheoked the demand.

Among the appointments made by the governor this week were the following Terre Hauteans: Paymaster general with the rank of colonel, Lewis B. Martin commissary general with the rank of colonel, Daniel Fusig adjutant of the staB, A. B. Mewhlnney. The sam6 announcement promotes Col. McKee, of the Second Infantry, to brigade

mander, which virtually gives him the iv" management of the legion, and makes Col. John W. Ebol the ranking colonel, giving his regiment the right of line.

J*r«miah Courtipl, 28 years old, a tinner's helper, fell from the top of the new JE^ulmnn building, where he was at work, yesterday uiornlna:. The fall was nearly ninety foetand the Injuries sustained caused his death in a half hour. The aocldent was caused by stepping on a loose board. Courval had only gone to work yesterday morning. He was a }stranger here, arriving in town from

Ylncennes on Wednesday evening. 11 home was in Streator, 111., where his parents res'de, and where it is said his lather lost both legs in an accident last Monday.

A representative of a Chicago firm, manufacturers of canning factory supplies and builders of complete plants, was in the olty this week conferring with the Vigo Real Estate company with a view of estab^shing a plant in this olty. His proposition is to ereot a two story building 60x100 feet, with all the machinery necessary to carry on the business, for about $8,000, and to take 91,000 stock In the same. The real estate company at once responded with au offer to donate the ground, and if the .stock can be secured it^will be a go.

With its characteristic enterprise the company is also going to erect a large feed mill on Highland Place.

The township assessor will commence getting tn his deadly work for another year on Saturday next. In Harrison Assessor O'Connell has selected his deputies as follows: For the outside township, Sam .Shields for city, Martin Biel, James Wallace, Fred Mullan, James Mullan, Goorge Davis, Joseph Rauch, Daniel Lynch, Joseph Watson, Lon Foster, E. S. Erney and B. Q. Grover, Last year Lon Foster had charge of the office work, and will probably occupy the same position this year. E. 8. Erney will probably give his attention to the assessment of improvements, which generally evade taxation to the tune of several hundred thousand every year. The work will commence April 1st and must be completed by June 1st, too short a time to insure efficient work in a city like this.

It will probably be the middle of the summer before the suit to test the constitutionality of the apportionment act, passed by the last Legislature, is filed. It was the intention to Ale the suit within a few weeks, but on Wednesday Senator Wishard, in looking over the act I discovered that there is not an enter*

the apportionment act goes into effeet. Mr. Wisbard says the suit will be filed soon after the taking effect of the act. It is understood that there will be a meeting of the Republican State committee some time in April, and that arrangements to bring the suit will be completed at that time. Jt has not yet been decided in what county the suit will be brought, but it will not be brought in Marion county, nor in the county of Henry, where the former ..apportionment suit was instituted

The executive committee of the state college athletic association has arranged the schedule for next fall's foot ball games as follows: Oct. 14, Bloomington at Purdue, Butler at DePauw, Rose Polytechnic at Wabash. Oct. 21, Wabash at BloomiDgton, Rose Polytechnic and winner of DePauw-Butler game at winner's grounds Purdue and leser of same game at Indianapolis or Lafayette. Oct. 28, Purdue at Rose Polytechnic, Bloomington at Butler. Nov.3,DePauw at Bloomington, Wabash at Purdue. Nov. 11, DePauw at Wabash, Bloomington at Rose Polyteohnic. Nov. 18, Butler at Wabash. Nov. 25, Rose Polytechnic and loser of Butler-DePauw game at Butler or DePauw. Nov. 30, Purdue and winner of last game at Indianapolis. State field day was set for May 29, and the games will occur in this city.

At Is last meeting the city council, if its proceedings were correctly reported, adopted a resolution that the city police be ordered to suspend for the present the enforcement of the sign ordinance. It has only been a very short time since a vigorous kiok was made at a council meeting that the police were negleoting their duty and were enforcing nothing. Now that they have been doing their duty they are requested to let up. No one can deny that the enforcement of the sign ordinance has worked a wonderful improvement in the appearance of the streets. Many have been to considdiable trouble and expense to remove obnoxious signs, and it would hardly be justice to tbdm to stop the work now and allow the others to remain. If the signs are to be allowed to remain after all that has been done the city should replace those whose removal it compelled.

On February 27th last August Nlppert, a former resident of this city, died in San Francisco, Cal., at the residence of com-| his son, Paul M. Mr. Nlppert will be remembered by the older inhabitants of this city and surrounding country as one of the pioneer merchants and a man of sterling social and business qualities.

In. the year 1371 he moved to Pittsfield, Ills., where he remained a few years, when he moved with his family to San Francisco, Cal., where he engaged in various business enterprises. He was a brother of Firman Nlppert and they at one time were in business together in this city. He was a native of Lorraine, France, but left that country at an early age to join several of his brothers and sisters who had come to this country some years before. Ever since he left this ty, Mr. Nlppart was a constant reader of The Saturday Evening Mail and regarded it as a welcome visitor to his new home.

The Standard Wheel Company will move Its general offices from Indianapolis to this city as soon as office quarters can he obtained here. The general manager was here last week and was negotiating for the old Hedden boarding house, No. 071 Ohio street. The stock of the wheel company is owned in this olty, and it Is this that causes the removal. The company has about a dozen plants, located as far east as Sandusky, and as far south as Memphis and Humboldt, Tenn. There Is one at Indianapolis and one here. The output this year is estimated at thirty thousand sets of wheels. The offices are now located In the Lorraine building, on Washington street, Indianapolis, and there are about thirty employes who will accompany the firm to their new home. The change will be made just as soon as suitable quarters can be secured. Here is a fine chance to rent a large number of rooms in one of the proposed new buildings to be erected here this summer.

The sheriff's of about one third of the counties lo the statu held a meeting in Indiauapolis on Thursday to consider the fee and salary bill in its relation to them. Sheriff Fredericks, of Lake county, presided, and Sheriff Rickarts, of Vatiderburg county, acted as secretary, A general discussion of the law! developed the fact that there is great unanimity of feeling that the law is unjust to the county officers affected, and it was said that in many counties the sheriffs have paid out more than their salary amounts to, and are actually running in debt. The testimony was that the law has many points on which it may be attacked in the courts on the ground of unconstitutionality, and it was decided to retain attorneys for the purpp9* of testing the law.

were not prepared, it is said, to give an opinion at once, aud said they would investigate the fee and uaiary Jaw of 1891, and let the committee know what their conclusion is. The meeting adjourned to meet at the call of the secretary.

The superintendent of insurance for the state of Ohio has issued a license to the Ohio Farmers' Insurance Company of Le Roy to do a mutnal insurance business for the current year. The company prior to the fail of examination transacted insurance on the stock plan, |ut after the repot of the department commissioner business was suspended. Several questions involved were submitted to the Attorney General for his opinion, who held that the company might be lawfully operated upon the mutual basis. The license is issued upon the opinion and upon the state ment of the company as issued on De« 31,1&92. In this city the company carries at this time nearly $100,000 insurance. The sum was much larger, but when the authority to do business in this slate was revoked by the state auditor many can celled their polioles and reinsured in other companies.
