The new law authorizing the election of women as school officers has no emergency clause, consequently it will not go into effect until the general distribution of the laws throughout the State. The results of the new jury law and its workings are watched with interest, as it makes important changes in the manner of selecting jurors. Hereafter they will bo drawn by two persons of opposite politics, select'd for that especial purpose, and called jury commissioners. The new system is expected to operate to the detriment of professional jurors, which in many places have !■(.- come a great nuisance. A small tax is also put upon the luxury knowm as the right of trial by jury, it being provided that the losing | arty shall pay a jury fee ot f4 50 to tho county as part of the costs in the case.'
George C. Hardin of Indianapolis, is dead. Peacg to his ashes. He joined the host beyond at OeiO Sunday morning last. About ten days before lie received a fall on Pennsylvat ia stive!, ami sustained a severe injury, widen continod him to his bed. Added to thi.-, he wis afflicted with erysipelas and troubled with his dig'stive organs, which led to bis death. The deceased was the best known newspaper in the State, and was rioted especially for t! it L-rso, pointed, brilliant and aggressive style of writing peculiarly his own. His lo»s wdl be keenly felt by the host of people w o really enjoyed the fruit:, of 1 i- pen. Tho last newspaper venture of the ih ceasd, The Saturday Heview. in the publication •of which he was associated with Mr. Ghat,. Dennis, has been unusually successful, and will be cuiitii ued by the surviving partner. The railroad meeting last Saturday developed nothing pattlcu'ariy new in re gnrd to the project, save that a corps ol surveyors would go to work next Monday, starting (rom this city, to run tidal lines for the roadway. The position of our citizens in re gat d to the subsidy asked was talked over, aud the truth came out when Judge Brown asserted that this township wanted the shops, tind the do nation could not bo reached without them. Greencastle is not a mendicant, begging that a railroad be opened up to give her communication with the outside world. Few cities are better supplied with shipping and traveling facilities,but we are open to conviction that we need more. How badly we need them is a matter for serious consideration. It is questionable whether we can afford to give $<JO.OCO and the right of way for (he unknown benefits to be derived by securing one terminus of 85 miles of radroad. If, however, the gentlemen who build the road will guarantee the location and maintenance of the machine and repair shops in this township, the outlook ts more favorable, »»d the issue would bear canvassing among the people.

Aioust Kicbteb, the Indianapolis man who recently swapped wives with Dr. Baumueller, the latter getting 41,000 In the trade, was thrown from his carriage by a runaway horse a few days ago and fatally Injured. Joseph Patasin.ki has sued several Hebrew eitizens of Indianapolis, vlaiming 110,-
rehlcles. During the recent earthquake the • windows and crockery in less massively constructed Luild'iig. rattled very sensibly, whereas there was no audible sound in the hotel. Since the earthquake shock, howJ ever, this state of things has changed entirely. and every vehicle passing the hotel causes vibration in tho whole building. The singular part of this change Is that the effect produced by the vehicle Is tbe same as that accompanying the earthquake. It is not ajar us previously produced m other buildings, but a sawing motion similar to that felt in the late sh ok. This movement is so great as to cause pictures to sway backward and forward on the walls. The hotel Is ono of brick, covered outside with mastic, which would show at once any crack In the walls. However, there Is not a crack in It. Hence it is thought this change in the solidity of the structure appears to lie duo to some effect produced In the earth underneath the building by the shock ol earth-
quake.
A Touching Incident of the Frontier. The miner, Anderson, of whose death in Summit notice was made last week, bad u romantic trip from Summit to Dol Norte. Fourteen men drew the body lashed to a sled to the top of tho divide, and e.ght men came on from the divide to the toll-gate with the corpse. From the toll-gate to Del Norte the trip was mate In wagons. Here is an Incident of frontier llte well worth pondering upon by our Eastern readers. We reprint it from the /‘nwpectur ns an instance of that unfailing friendship which exists In tbe breasts of men whose exteriors may lie rough, but whose humanity would Impel them to wade through tlames to pay the last tribute of respect to a fellow man. Picture the procession wading up the snow-clad mountain, silently drawing the body upon a rude vehicle. Above timber lino, where silence reigns supreme, tbe cold almost unendurable, those friends, stalwart, good :uid true, puisne their toilsome way over the snow crust, to be rewarded only by the consciousness thu, the remains of their comrade shall find Christian sepulture in dedicated ground. Some account of this kind act will, doubtless, go aoroM the sea and reach, pet-baps, some cottage in Sweden, where tho old parents shall read the letter, and, amid th or blinding tears, thunk God that in far off America the b >dy of their son, whose soul went out of this world from the loneliness of h cabin—tor Anderson died suddenly, with no one near—was cured for unit decently buried, bo may i, be with all of us, and not, ns in many eases in these rugged mountains, where the al! ingulfing nvultiiich > sweeps the miner to sudden death, and an unknown and unknowable tomb.
