A suit that has for its object the taxation oi stocks and bonds of railroads and other corporations operated in Ohio and other States in the hands of Buckeye citizens, was commenced, Wednesday, in the Supreme Court. If successful, the Buit will be the means of relieving the present tax payers to the extent of

The California Insurance company sued Lamport and Bishop, Joliet wire mill owners, to recover the insurance paid on their mill which burned in 1883. J. M. Whyte, formerly superintendent of the mill, testified that he set it afire for the

the jury , didn't believe him and gave a verdict for the defendants. Whyte will be prosecuted for peri ury . Investigation has developed the fact

that the late Chas. Albert Kebler, the

Cincinnati . attorney who committed

suicide on Wednesday, was driven to

deed by the approaching revelation of heavy forgeries committed by him in the management of estates and trust funds committed to his care. An esti

mate is made that the liabilities thus

incurred amount to about $175,000,

while the value of the property left by Mr. Kebler will not exceed $60,000.

his own family and friends. The astonishing revelation discloses the mo

ANOTHER IRISH BOW.

Police at Limerick Assault an A&gemnily - tn Honor of Martyrs. An attempt was made in Limerick, Ixland, Sunday, to hold a demonstration in honor of the Manchester martyrs, Alien, Larkin and O'Brien, and was suppressed by the police. The unveiling of a statue to commemorate 'the hanging of the men was set down as a portion of the programme. Fearing inerference with the statue, a guard surrounded it during the night. Mr. McInerney, of New York, who was chosen to preside at the demonstration, was on the ground and addressed' the people. The people then drew their batons and made an onslaught upon the crowd. This was answered by stone throwing. The crowd was dispersed subsequently. Wherever groups were found assembling, the police charged upon them and seised the flags. In these encounters a

Tuesday the well was deepened, producing a considerable flow of oil. In about twenty wells drilled in that county this is the first one that has shown any indication oi oil. The establishment of a large glass factory at Dunkirk has been secured by a donation of grounds and $$,500 in money. Although Dunkirk is only a town of ljOOO inhabitants, ihe citizens are'wide awake. This factory will employ 800 hands and double the population immediately. j Patents were issued for Indiana inventors, Tuesday, as follows: Alfred A, Bernardin, Evansville, bottle cap; James F. Hatfield, Dublin, grain separator. Wm. H. McCrew, assignor of one-half to J. Myers, Peru, wire and picket fence; Peter Rader, Kirklin, coupling for cultivators. A grand jury at Indianapolis, composed of five Democrats and' one Greenbacker,bas returned indictments against Bepublicans and an ti-Coy Democrats, one, it is said, being against Perkins, the

'chief witness against the alleged tally-

duck shooting grounds in the world.

The marsh is no v dry, and the docks

which are now qoming from the north,

circle over it and go south. The drain

ing will have the same effect as the recent ditching of the Sangamon bottom in Mason county, Illinois, which has

destroyed about 200,000 acreB of ducking

ground.

When toe uerauw will case was

called in the Circuit Court at Now Albany, Tuesday, the attorneys for the

additional paragraph to her complaint,

in which it is charged that the execution

of the will was procured by fraud and

undue influence, and that, after the

will was executed, some one unknown to her, had erased from the instrument

a elause bequeathing to the plain tift

$10,000. On these grounds the case was

then passed, and in view of the fact that there are about twenty-five jury cases

carried over from the la3t term, which have precedence over this case, it is probable that, it will not have a hearing a, this term of court. Fran Miller and wife Alice and Simon Mull started from Vincennes last Saturday with a jug of whisky, for their home in the river bottoms. They stopped at the farm house of Geo, Hedges, where Miss Priscilla Grier was visiting. She wished to go to 'Squire Staley's, but did not desire to go with that crowd. She was overpersuaded, ad left, and that is the last time she wa seen alive. The remains were found next morning, mangled and burned and the ground soaked with blood. Miller and Mull claim they know nothing of her death, and sa. they were so drunk they don't know what happened during the night. The body was found on Sunday morning by Mrs. Miller, who went to look for a dollar she had lost. The Millers and Mull are under arrest. The report of a shocking case of poverty and neglect comes from Grant county. Last Saturday Henry Lockwood and wife, residing ten miles from Marion j were summoned before the prosecutor to give evidence in a criminal ease. They are wretchedly poor, and their three children, aged eight,four and eighteen months, were left aloue in a hovel that admitted the snow that accompanied the blizzard tnat broke Saturday morning. On their way home Saturday evening Lockwood and wife were nearly frozen and stopped with an acquaintance on the way. On their arrival home Sunday morning they found the younger child, a little girl, frozen to death and the other two so badly chilled and frost-bitten that they could scarcely

move or speak. The eldest boy said he

awoke during the night and found his

sister out. in the snow beside the bed,

and that when he pulled her in she was stiff. She was doubtless dead then. The sixteenth annual report of the

managers and officers of the female reformatory were made to the Governor Wednesday. The board of managers,

Mesdames Heud ricks, Walker and

James, in their report show that there

are fifteen officers and employes in the institution and they add: "The management has always been humane, judicious and economical," There are fifty-

two inmates of the penal department

and 120 of the reformatory proper. There have been three deaths in the

penal department during the year, and

the gross earnings of tiie institution have been f 3,810.58, and the coat of

materials $1,291.01. During the year $29,991 53 have been drawn from the State treasury on account of the institution, $3,501 paid out for permanents and

$1,339,07 paid in from various counties;

leaving the total cost of the institution to the State, for the year, $10,519.88. The managers say that the institution

greatly needs a hospital, a chapel, and a

high brick wall inclosing the grounds.

The Republicans of the House will east a complimentary vote for Thomas B. Reed, of Maine, for the speakership.

rue Anil-Prohibition. uta G&try th City

by 1,300 Majority.

jiuii uie most nearea contest on re

cord in the State of Georgia, Atlanta

Saturday, voted against; prohibition.

iJie n $ in Las been a peculi arly oitter

one. For over a month the citizens have been engaged in the contest. Meetings

were held al most eve ry ni ght and local speakers and foreign statesmen stumped the countyferom almost every curbstone in the city aud every cross-roads in the county. Early in the campaign the Pro hibitionists leased the largest warehouse in the city and fitted it up with to seating capacity for 8 000 people. Almost nightly that building has been filled,and such scones of wild enthusiasm are rarely witnessed. Almost every minister in the city preached prohibition from his pul pit Sunday after Sunday. Both sides had full campaign funds, and managed their respective caucuBOB for all they were worth. The negro vote was the bone of contention, and was the balance of power. Each side made the most strenuous endeavors to secure it in every way possible. The negroes were con

siderably divided on the subject-though

the majority of them voted with the anti-prohibitionists. One of the features of the contest has

been the active part taken by many

women of the city. Several of the

churches organized committees from

among their female members, who took

an active part in the campaign. They organized the women of the colored

ihurehes into societies, and! met with

them and prayed with them day after

day. The result of their work was

shown by the appearance of large num

bers of women at the polls with blue

badges. They served hot cofiee and sandwiches at every polling place, and

conducted prayer meetings and singing crusades in the open air.

Fulton county, in which Atlanta is

situated, voted, two years ago, on the

same question, and went for prohibition

by a majority of 228 out of about 8,000 votes. The registration this time ex -

ceeded that of the last election bv 2,000

votes. The principal fight made

on promotion durin.? tne camnanm

was that it did not prohibit, aud that

intoxicating drinks could be openly

purchased in anumberof places through

out the city which paid taxes to the

United States Government for the sale of whisky. Thousands of gallons have been sent in each month from cities

around Atlanta, from which it was almost as easy to get a jug as it was at

bars in the city. The antis claimed that

prohibition in jured the city, wh ich was receiving 110,000 a year for whisky

licenses without decreasing in the

slightest the amount of whisky sold in

the city. The Prohibitionists, on the

other hand, claimed that Atlanta has never had prohibition; that while it was

so voted, two years ago, the licenses

then existing did not expire, some of

them, until almost a year ago, and that since that time the domestic wine clause

in the local option bill allowed many

places in the city by which the law could be easily evadei This was, how -

ever remedied, bv the last Legislature,

which put a license of $10,000 on all wine-rooms, which license will go into

eftect after Jan. 1. The city has gone

"wet" by probably 1,200 majority.

and "Jira" Renforth, champion scuHer

and swimmer of England and of the

world, was stroke in bhe Engl'eh shell. Excitement was at fever heat.. ... But three hundred yards of the courae, had been covered wben the Englishmen noticed that their rival, were creeping away. , "Give us a dozen, Jim." &ai& the vet

eran Harry Kelly, e;-cbampion of Eng

land, who was pulimg No. 8 oar. "I can't, boys. I'm done' said Renforth, and with chesu words he fell for

ward, an inanimate heap in trie boat.

"He has been poitoned by book-makers." was the cry, and belief Everything that science and skill

could suggest for his restoration was

tried; hut after terrible straggles of

acony,the strong xusn, the fldweir of the athletes and pride of his coontrymen,

passed away. The stomach1 was analyzed, but no sitjn

or trace of poison could be found therein, though general examination showed a very stranue condition of the blood

His wonderful strength onlv made big

champion of that cc untry, is a powerful j

fellow, who probably understands the

fleo rivery at the crossing of two great systems of railroad the Louisville & Nashville and the East Tennessee, Virginia A Georgia. The very eligible loca

tion of the city has resulted in there being located herein the last six months over tbifty'fi ve large manufacturing es-

tapnsumente ?na new ones are coming every week.' Fine blocks of business houses have been built, a eomplote system of sewerage and drainage has been put in, and water works to supply 3,000,000 of gallcns of water daily are in process of erection. In aldition te these

several uiiles.of streets have been graded,.

electric light and telephone service are in pronation and street car lines have bean laid and the cars will be running within tetn days. , The residence .portion' of the city has b sen laid out in the high est; and test style df the landacaije engineers art by Catain N. E. Barre tt, who; laid out Pullman, Illinois. The city will, therefore, not onlv be a fln9 place for all Kinds of business and manufacturing industriefr, but will be a pleasant place for residence for all who desire a home in a mild, pleasant and 'equable climate, . fi What is there to bufld up a great city at Decatur? is a natural inquiry. This may be answered in a few- words.' Its eligibility of location on a navigable river, and as ths center of a railroad system, gives it unequaled- facilities for transportation both for the raw material and the. manufactured product, i.djacent; to the city are inexhaustible stores , of iron and coal, dp and down the river are immens forests of the best kinds of timber, Vhe valley of the Tennessee river contains some of the beat agricultural lands in the United States. These, combined with a delightful climate, pre sent; advantages for a solid growth and a material prosperity found in low other places in our broad land. j ' tS;Fpr..an oppori unity for investments in

; real estate there is no point now in the

south or West that offers greater inducements, while i.le stock, of the Land Com pany promises another attractive field for those desiring to receive larare roturns .The Ltind Company hSiVe 5,600 acres of town lots, and 50,000 ucreo of

mineral , lands. They have sold and given away about 160 acres only and received a sum of money equal to what was, paid for the - whole. Tliey have some $25,000,000 worth of property yet to dispose ..of; and at the minimum price

at which any of it has been sold it will

make, the ptock worth $500 a share. It now sells at f ;7 a share; having been originally issued at $20. ' Tlaat it is an excellent purchase at ; prevailing prices any one will be convinced who will investigate the subject.

In conclusion, the writer will say that he has visited all the new towns in the South and he believes that there is no one which has as brilliant an outlook as Decatur. A 11 persons desiring to change t ieir location sliouid look carefully into il s advantages. A visit here is the best way to find out ail about it. eeing is be)ieving,, and no one who conies here to investigate but is convinced of the truth of all we have written.
