The management states that the outlook is for the finest lot of speed horses ever seen, at a county fair in Indiana. There will be big racing every day, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Those people who are always seeing evil in every bit of harmless amusement that ordinary folks in-4 dulge in, must have peculiar minbs. There are those in the world who probably think it wrong for the sun to shine and for the birds to sing, while others will find cause for lamentation and woe in the happy laughter of a little child. What a queer, world this would be if all the men and women in it were as gloomy and depressing in their views as some of the critics who occasionally arise to heave rocks at all the little pleasures the rest of us indulge in . . The Big Bloomington Fair at Bloomingon Indiana September 24 to 28 is now a guaranteed and assured success. The Secretary writes that there is no question but that it will be the biggest fair in southern Indiana. The Secretary has been traveling for three weeks in the interest of the fair and has obtained several interesting at'ractionf. The Streets of Ca;rf Midway and other attractions will be given exactly as they were given at the Great World's Fair at Chicago. A Wild West Show and balloon ascension has been contracted for and are second to none in Indiana. Considerable expense is attached to getting these attractions to the fair.
THE MOST STYLISH DRESS
IS HE GUILTY?
That Is the Great Question in the Hinshaw Trial. The great Hinshaw murder trial continues at Danville with renewed interest. Special seats have been provided for the ladies, several hun:ed of whom throng the court room daily. The state will consume ten more days in introducing its evidence, the defendant's attorneys will require a like amount of time, and three days will be given for the final pleadings. It is a good job for the lawyers, Mr. Duncan alone being paid $1500 for his services. In a few days the state will introduce some racy testimony to prove that in this case, as in many others, there was a pretty woman, at the bottom of all the trouble- The examination of Dr. Strong was continued. The coroner's evidence showed that Dr. Strong had testified that Hinshaw had told him that his wife had placed her arms around him and said. "Is this you, Will ?" After a wordy passage, the Doctor stood by what he had told at the coroner's inquest . Hinshaw told him that they strugu v i nt .. house. He found himself near the Tincher fence, and was holding the man in a position in which he thought he could break his back across the fence, when the other man shot him. He found himself on the ground, but he did not know how he got there.

uiau, juo UMici nan ouui. Dr. Strong, after some questioning, said that Hinshaw told him that he had struggled with men,, and not a man in the dining room. Mr. Duncan, on cross-examination, drew out of. Dr. Stroug that Hinshaw asked him if he was going to di, and felt very much alarmed about it, and said that he was bleeding internally.There was a large crowd present, and many questions were asked amidst a great deal of excitement, and many persons got sick at the Bight of the bloody wounds. "It affected you a little, did it?" "Yes, it did. I served three years in the army, and I never had anything affect me as that did." Dr. Strong choked, and tears came into his eyes. It was several seconds before he could say anything, and his actions created a hum throughout the court room. Hinshaw's eyes filled with tears. The Doctor's Confusion, When Dr. Strong broke down there was a sensation in the court room. It was evident to every one that there was no attempt at stage effect on his part. During ail the time that he was testifying Dr. Strong was very nervous and very much embarrassed. The difference between the statement he had signed for the coroner and what he testified to verbally on the witness-stand annoyed him. He explained that the notes of the coroner's inquest were made by a clerk, bat Mr. Spaan came back at him with the merciless question, if he had not s'gned the report, and he had to admit that he had. The point the State was trying to make by Dr. Strong's testimony was that it would be impossible for the woman, wounded, as she was, to place her arms around her husband and talk to him as she did while he was fighting as ho was with the men in the dining room. Another point was to discredit what the Doctor said by showing that the testimony in court was
the coroner. Dr. Frank Morrison Testilieg. Dr. Fraik A. Morrison, of Indianapolis, was placed in the witness-box as an expert in anatomy- He related his fifteen years' experience as a physician and surgeon. He said that in making a post-mortem of the brain, exact and porportionate measurements were necessary to decide the nature of the wound. It is necessary to describe the arteries that have been cut, and also a description of the convolutions should be given. Dr. Morrison detailed the motor area and told of its functions. The dried brain that was used on the first day was used to illustrate the Doctor's testimony. Dr- Morrison said that the brain shown on the witness-stand by Dr. Fletcher had been furnished by him. The witness related instances of great injury to the head and brain, such as a crow-bar being driven through it, a breech-pin being sent into the brain, and others. He told of a young man of Indianapolis on whom he had operated and had removed a portion of the brain, and who was still alive and well. It did not depend so much on the kind of injury, but the part of the brain that was hurt. Paralysis always follows . an injury to the motor center there is no deviation from the rule. A Hypothetical Question. Mr. Spaan asked the same hypothetical question he had given Dr. Fletcher, describing the wound in Mrs. Hinshaw's scalp and the injury to the brain. He inquired if a woman receiving such a wound, lying upon her face when the shot was fired, could talk intelligently and say, "I am shot," go through several rooms, put her hand on her husband's shoulder or her arms about him and say "Will, is this you," have a struggle with a burglar, go out a back door and fall on her back. "lnat would be utterly lmpossi''The areas that control voluntary motion were cut and other convolutions iujuredso that she could not talk intelligently.'' Dr. Morrison said that if the description of the wound as told in the report of the post-mortem was correct, Mrs. Hinshaw could not do as was related by her husband in his account of the battle with the burglars. This answer of the witness had a decided effect on the people in the audience, and there was an uneasy shuffling about. Dr. Morrison gave his testimony coolly and deliberately A Wltnest for the Stats. Thomas White was called to the stand by the State, He has lived in Bellville all his life, and knows the defendant in this case. The night of the tragedy Mrs. East came to his house and awakened him. Hinshaw was found in the National ioad sitting dowu, with his knees drawn up and his elbows resting on them. He I wore a suit of red flannel and was bare-foot. The defendant told Mr. White that he was cut and shot all to pieces, but did not know who did it. That two men had been in his house. One of them had a mustache. He was heavy-set and of dark complexion, and wore a cap, not with a bill, but with a roll, pulled down over his ears. The other man was taller, slimmer and had a lighter complexion. This was about 1 o'clock in the morning. Mr White assisted in carrying Hinshaw into the house. Hinshaw said that the men had gone south.

MAKING ESTABLISHMENT IS
A GREAT DAY,
The Boys In Blue and the Boys In Gray Talk Over War Days. The second day of the great encampment has came and gone. The big parade is a thing of the past, and it was one of the leading features of the week's festivities. It was impossible to count the veterans that participated in and marched miles. It was estimated that not less than 125,000 passed the reviewing stand, where Commander-in-chief Lawler, Gov. Brown, Mayor Tyler and other noted G. A. R. men stood with bowed beads as they looked upon the battle scarred and time worn veterans who f jught four long years in storm and sunshine for their country. Side by side marched the Blue and Gray on that long line of march. Many hundred of new arrivals came in last night and the sireeis are simpiy a pertect jam o sweltering humanity, Jeffersonville can't surely support many more Louisville hotels are crowded but they handle their gueBts in a credit. able manner. The Press Club headquarters oi Jefferson Street is proving to be a popular place for the visiting newspaper men who all register and are presented with a badge and given the freedom 01 tne city. tteiresnments nere are to be found in the shape of good old Bourbon, that runs down a parched throat like tree molasses. Mayor Tyler issued a proclama tion prohibiting vehicles and bicy cies from being on the streets from ten a. m. to 2:30 p. m., owing to the danger that would likely occur during the parade. The Bloomington, Scottsburg, Vincennes and Jeffersonville militiamen are camped in Barmores old ship yard. They will do escort duty during the week. Gov. Mtthews is holding forth in Jeffersonville and is meeting with a warm reception. At the prison South this morning the convict veterans are are enjoying the reunion allowed them by Wardea Hert. It will continue tonight and tomorrow. St. Paul and Denver are hot in the fight for the next encampment with the chances a little in fp.vor of the latter. Delegations from both cities are here and hustling. There must be at least one hundred bar ds of music here and you can hear the sweet strains daily. The twenty second Regiment held the first camp fire last night and it was a success. They are quartered at Jeffersonville. At 6 o'clock yesterday morning four of the Legion's boys and a negro driver were blown to atoms by the explosion of a caisson, and many were seriously injured. AFTER ELI. Bloodhounda Tackle One of Our Lawyers, Marks Fashion. Davis' Uncle Tom Cabin company that showed here Monday and Tuesday nights, had two fsrocious bloodhounds, that are used to chase Eliza across the ice, (stage), and incidentially one of them tackles Marks the Lawyer (in the play) and throws him to the ground greatly to the amusement of the "gallery

gods." Evidently the aforesaid hounds think it to be their boundon duty to tackle every disciple of Blackstone he meets from his actions Tuesday night. The com pany's car had been on the siding opposite Hon. E. K. Millen's law office, where that gentleman during the warm summer months reposes during the silent watches of the night. Tuesday night Mr. Milieu had not yet retired and was wending his way to his office when he was set upon by both hounds. Quickly drawing his revolver he sent a shot in their midst to frighten the dogs. They didn't scare worth a cent, and nothing loath Mr. Millen pulled the trigger again and the shot was answered by a yell from dog that told he was hit. Mr. Millen made a beeline for his office and did not ascertain just how badly the dog was wounded. When it comes to chasing mem bers of the Bloomington bar with bloodhounds, (Marks fashion) they draw a line and strenously object to being sacrificed upon the altr of fame La Uncle Toms Cabin. SLEEPINC. Miss Clara Spencer Palls Down' a Fi ght of Stairs. Miss Clara Spencer, daughter of Barton Spencer, living at the corner of Fourth and Rogers street, met with a painful as well as a peculiar accident Tuesday night. She had retired as usual and about ten o'clock she slipped out of bed and began walking aound the house in her sleep. Her room being ou the second floor hIio started to descend the stairs, but losing her balancoshe fell down the flight, head foremost, receiving very painful injuries. Her right oar was almost torn from her head, and her IN THE NEW
