He had just left his wife and two little children and started for his work when the accident occured. South Pend Times When William Wood was arrested here he told the young lady in the ollice to tell Dr. Eastman on his return that he had gone out to attend a post mortem, which will go a good ways toward showing what a cold blooded specimen of a villain Wood is.

All the portraits at Ryan A; Joseph's, Today and Monday Among the "classic" names given to j towns in Indiana by its early pioneers are such as the following: Tailholt is in Poone county, Henpeck in Cass. Puckerbrush in Wabash, Toadleap in Hamilton, Suuankum in Hendricks, Pughep in Johnson, Pugtovvn in Posey, Possumtrot in Prown and Lickskillet in Morgan. A special to the Michigan City Dispatch tells of a 20 year old daughter of a farmer near New Pullalo, as approaching death. It is said that lier brother was a cigaret liend and died from the use of them. Circumstances point to this being tho cause of the young lady's sickness, as she has wasted away to a mere skeleton. Those interested in the late Fourth ward atTair have, so wo are informed, tiled a waiver with the court at Indianapolis and the matter has been certified back to the clerk of the court here, t hat the case has been reversed in all its bearings. This, of course, makes it necessary for those interested in the matter to commence proceedings for a new hearing in the circuit court here. Smooth roadway. (Juick time. Perfect passenger service. Uniformed train porters for the convenience of first and second class patrons. Through sleeping cars between Chicago, Pullalo, New York, and Poston. Unexcelled dining car service. No change of cars for any class of passengers between Chicago and New York City via. the Nickel Plate road. An exchange says: "If people wolud purchase green coffee and brown it in their houses, there would be fewer cases of dyphtheria, scarlet and typhoid lever The aroma arising from the browning berry is one of the best agents in disinfecting dwellings of impure air. It is easier to buy coffee already browned than to prepare it, but to prepair it once a week saves health and doctor bills. Tho doors should be left open and let the aroma pervade each loom. A.L.Fisher, of the Inhki'IIXIikxt force, lost a pocket-book containing quite a sum of money last week on the train near Crown Point. Ho did not discover his loss until that evening. The thought of recovering it was remote, and he received a surprise in the shapeof a letter from Cincinnat i stating that it was there at the superntendants office. He immediately forwarded a discription of it and yesterday received it all right. Tuesday a large number of our young men went to Argos to show the boys how to conduct the secret work of the Princes Orient. It seems that some dissatisfaction arose regarding the work, and the Plymouth and a large number of the Pourbon boys returned home without attending to the important work. Those present from Plymouth were: Pert Harris, Lew Suits, Frank McKinney, Carl Peynolds, John Klinghamer, Polio Pennett, Floyd Punnell, Lee Kendall and L. II. Vanscoick.
