Joseph Henderson, an old citizen and prominent attorney of South Bend, died on last Monday night after a protracted sickness. Mr. Henderson was the oldest member of the St. Joseph county bar with the ‘exception of A. S. Dunbar and George \V. Mathews. Not the O'Riley that kept the hotel, but it was Wm. Riley of Elkhart, who | thought he discovered a burglar in his \ room the other night sitting in his arm 1 chair.

Two sharpers are again in the field selling wind mill territory, says an exchange. A contract is signed which - obligates the puarchasers to sell $125 , worth of wind mills. By tearing off one end of the agreement it turns out to be an iron clad promissory note, such | as has been used with such telling ef- | sect in the west. It is an old scheme % but gets its vietims this year the same |as last. They have been doing finely ’ in LaPorte county. The Libby Prison War Museum. Os the many attractions outside of the World’s Fair in Chicago, there are but few in which there is so mueh interest centered as there is in Libby Prison War Museum. In 1889 this celebrated prison was removed from Richmond to Chicago and converted into a War Museum. The project was undertaken by a syndicate of the best ‘l known business men of the city whose ‘(‘Xlti'!'i)l'ifit" - \-\'Z\S conceived in a com- | mercial spirit, but has attained a na- ‘ tional reputation. A project such as | this was never before heard of. To iu}uvc a brick and stone building the { size of Libby more than a thousand g miles, across rivers and mountains, was an enterprise that many of the { best known contractors in the west re- | fused to undertake at any price. But \ the move was made with sucecess. g'l‘ku‘n the famous old structure was filliml with war material that represents | the wot 1 of a lifetime and the expendi-

ture of half a million of dollars. The great collection is conceded to be second to none in the country and includes much of the most valuable material that the greatest civil war the world has ever known has left to pos- | terity. The collection includes { thousands of relies of every des- | eription, many of which form important links in the history of the mnation. The building itself is fraught with interesting memories and the story of the celebrated tunnel escape of Feb. 9, 1864, never fails to interest the visitors. One hundred and nine Union officers made their escape through that tunnel, which formed one of the most thrilling lcvcuts in the history of the war,

Prace | The Michigan City News says that a ; first-class murder or suicide sensation | was spoiled in that city a few days ! ago all on aecount of the lack of a corpse. 1t was roported that a Mrs. | Johnson was lying dead in her house f in the sand hills and that her husband i had not returned. Oficers went to the house to investigate and peering ; through the window saw a form lying on the bed. Repeated calls failed to ' bring a response from the inside and l they forced the door in. On going teo the bed and removing the cover from the supposed dead person’s face they found it to be a large doll baby, which was lying on the pillow by the side of ' a feather tick, rolled up lengthwise and | extending the full length of the bed, i resembling very much the form of a { person. The ofiicers and others who ! went to the house were greatly dis- ' i appointed at seeing a sensation fall go | flat, but enjoyved a good laugh over the i ridiculous outcome of the affair. 1 BINDER TWINE | Eight to twelve cents per pound. _ : Call at my office.
