W"wk.y did It!" Our local coining this morning tell the story. It is not the fanatics howl, but a plain truth a woman walks off of a train while in fall speed, down to death; her mangled body is found, the hus--band arrested for murder, and by a mere accident proves himself innocent. Bnt the saddest sight of all is to see a few men, and they the servants of the law, convey to the grave the mangled form of a strange woman, no relatives to mourn not even a friend; and she is 'buried as

the law would hide awav a beast of

the field; then forgotton, only as the terrible remembrance of the sad occasion lingered in the niinct Is it not said,"the wages of sin is death"?

Deliver the country from dudes and dudeses; from the young man or the young woman who is "bom" better than their companions; from the cod-fish aristocracy that go about witk noses pointed- to the moon and their veins filled .with "blue" blood.

But of all other living tilings may we always be delivered from the "smart alex" that gets in to town and no sooner gets a starvation clerkship than he turns himself about to laugh and sport at his old friends from the. country. True, the clothes they wear may not be so fine, but beneath that home-spun coat there is a heart that throbs with kindness and knows not deceit. Of a like specimen of young man, an exchange says truthfully: "When a young man leaves the oM farm for the city, and succeeds in getting a fortune ,by some nook or crook, especially by crook, and is ashamed to have his old father and mother visit him because they don't dress in the latest style and are ignorant of the ways, of fashionable society, he is a contemptible ingrate, and ought, in the phrazology of the plague stricken West, to be "kicked to death by grass-hoppers." Money is a good thing to have, and we only

wish there were more of it in the world, or 'that a few bushels more of gold dollars had fallen to our lot; but when abank bill is so large that it hides your old father's face, and is so long that you cant look over it when standing on tip-toe and see your old mother's proud and anxious look, it is too much for any man to have. The money that makes you ashamed of the humble homstead in which you were born is counterfeit coin and not worth your toil to tpos-sess.

Tire campaign just closed in Ohio has been a peculiar one, defeating the entire Republican ticket and everlastingly burying the Prohibition expectations. They had in thati State an amendment to prohibit the sale of intoxicants, known as the Second amendment,, in itself a good thing, but considering the circumstances and now the result, a measure that for utter foolishness has no equal in political history. Its Advocates sought to prohibit intoxicants, and elected a Legislature 4

that is pledged to repeal every law that temperance people have obtained for twenty years. Not only this, but by tra ling temperance Repub hcans voting the Democratic ticket in exchange for a vote for a cipher amendment the party that thus far has fought all their battles, that passed a high license law, that gave these same people an opportunity to vote for the amendment, is fearfully defeated, while the amendment is gone by one hundred thousand majority. More than this, no political party will ever submit it again. The Republicans received the thanks of defeat; the Democratic party is liot guilty of such acts, as the people of Indiana can willingly testify. And whenever a Democratic Legislature does any thing for temperance please let us know. Also send us word when Prohibitionists do any thing for theJEiepublicans. The Telephone is always joyed to publish such articles as the following. It is from London: "At the

Grand Theater on Saturday evening during the performances of Miss Minnie Palmer, the American actress

a large bouquet was thrown to her

from a private box occupied by three dudes. As she picked it up a note dropped from it and fell upon the stage in full view of the audience. The lady secured it as she was leaving the stage, and turned it over to Mr. John R. Rogers, her husband and manager. It proved to be an invitation to Miss Palmer, couched in suggestive language, to take supper with the three at the German Embassy. After .the performance -ur. Rogers entered the box, seized the biggest of the trio, thrashed him soundly, and ejected him from 'the theater. The crowd out side took the fellow in hand, upon learning the nature of his offense, stripped him of his clothes and pelted him with mud until he finally escaped. The other two, fearing Mr. Rogers return, and the indignation of the audience, incontinently bolted."

In speaking of the result of the Ohio election the Cincinnati! IVmea an independent paper, says: "The immense vote for the Second Amendment is one of the surprises of the election. The temperance people seemed to have worked in the country districts with tremendous energy. Other issues were lost sight of. In many localities little attention was paid to the party tickets. This must be considered as having an important bearing on the vote for Governor. It shows that from a strictly political point of view, the result has no great significance. The battle of next year has not been decided in advance. It must be fought next year, On issues that were not conspicuious in yesterday's election."

It is "this" story, because it seems all to be tlte same story, and that is the story of alcohol. Running under the thread of woe or wrong there is a stream of beer or whisky. We do not seek to depict a drama called "drink" nor to preach a "temperance" sermon, as fanaticism would, which finds the root of all evil in the one thing it hates. There is a little more thau

An exchange has ' the following which puts in a proper light a matter that is generally misunderstood: "We are willing to give place in our local columns to mention of any visitors, the absence of any citizen, his wife or his daughter, but at the same time we would be glad to have items written out and handed in, or mention made of it at this office.

No visitors is more welcome to our sanctum than one who brings in an item."

the "song," the carouse; and so following the black brood that troops under sin's bannerj last of all comes death dawning its inspiration from drink. In most, if not all, of -these cases drink has nerved the murder's arm. There has been one grievance and another; business quarrels in some cases, jealousy as seemed to have entered into this last case, flowing from sexual w rong doing. But in each case where the cause has found lodgment, it has found irritation in drunken imaginings, and added to itself the huge proportions of the spectres which float on the fumes of alcohol. Are we to pass unheeded this awful record and devote ourselves to cries of more "libesty" and Ifcss restriction for the drink traffic? It seems to us it is time to think and more than time to act iu drawing closer the rule of law which shall hedge in license and enforce a sense of obedience to the rights of humanity. We have surely dwelt long enough on humanity's privileges to consider somewhat the rights it has to protection; rights that are found only in a strict maintenance of law.

The skeleton of C. J. Guiteau, asassin of President Garfield, has at last been placed on exhibition in the Army Medical Museum. It is displayed ih a new case in the north end os Museum Hall, which contains in addition the skeletons of a boy, a negro girl and an Indian chief. The two former are labeled, but the skeleton of the assassin bears no mark except the small letter "D" on each distinctive section' of the frame. The skin of Guiteau's head is stuffed and preserved in a large jar of alcohol, in the curator's office, and is in an excellent state of preservation, the facial expression being perfect. One of the principals of the museum stated that tlx e flesh was not thrown into a sewer, as has been stated, but was cremated in the museum hoiier at noon of October :30, 1882. There will doubtless be a rush of spectators to see the skeleton next week.

In the Louisville Courier-Journal of Saturday, the following marriage notice appears: "Leavenworth Campbell In this city, on Thursday October, II, 1883, at the, residence of Mrs. L. V. Maury, by the Rev. S. K. Barnwell, Mr. F, P. Leavenworth of the University of Virginia, and Miss Jennie C. Campbell, of Topeka, Kansas." Miss Campbell is a daughter of Prof. M. M. Campbell, a former resident here, and in 1870 represented the Indiana University in the State Oratorical Contest. Frank Leavenworth was a member of the same class.
