LAWS RELATING TO NEWSPAPER

Subscriptions and Arrearages. The attention of all penonf receiving the Oazette la directed to the laws relating to newspapers and Subscribers which we publish herewith. There are, however on the Gazette's list of subscribers, it is to be hoped, ne perrons who will not promptly respond to our Just and lawful request for money due, as set forth In what follows:

Subscribers wlw do not give express notice to the contrary, are considered wishing to continue their subscription. 2. If subscribers order the discontinuunce of their periodicals, the publishers may continue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals from the office to which they are directed, they are hrld responsible until they tiave settled their bills, and ordered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers move to other places without informing the publishers, and the papers are sent to the for ma- direction, they are held responsible. 6. The court*- have drcided that "refusing to take periodicals from the office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud.' 6. Any person icho receives a newspaper and makes use of it, whether he has ordered it or not, is held in law to be a subscriber. 7. If subscribers pay in advance, they are bound to give notice to the publisher, at the etui of their time, if they do not wish to continue taking it otherwise the publisher is authorised to tend it on, and the subscribers will be responsible until an express r^otioc, with payment of all arrears is sent to the publisher.

THE Democrats of Lost Creek Townskip will meet on Saturday, March lltb, at 1 o'clock in the afternoon at the Township House for the purpose of electing a member of the County Central Committee and nominating A ticket for the comieg Township election.

Tint Republicans held ibeir war meetings to select delegates for the Harrison Township convention on batarday. Hie convention proper meets next Saturday. There will be little if any opposition to the renommation of L. Finkbiner. He has made a good Trustee and it would toe apiece ot folly which the Republicans will hardly be guilty of for them to take up ano*.her man now. 't

THE Democratic County Cential Committee met on Saturday. The attendance was large and great interest was exhibited by all the Committeemen present and by other Democrats who were in attendance. The proceedings in detail are published elsewhere. The party is prepared to make a vigorous fight in the various townships and county this fall, and with a good ticket has excellent prospect*

PENSIONS.

To the Editor of the GAZETTE: Has the law granting pensions arrears been repealed If so, when? What the law now in regard to them, etc

The payment of arrears on pensions expired July 1,1880. On claims filed before that date arrears will be allowed. Claims filed since July 1,1880, will be paid from the date of filing.

A CARD from A. J. Kelley, criminal prosecutor of Vigo Couaty, in the form of an interview procured by him with a

i^reporter

of the GAZETTE and in relation

*io the release of the bank robbers, Simmons and Hunt, will be found on another ^page of this issue. It gives the views of

JMr. Kelley on a question which is exciting prufound interest in this community and concerning which there is very deep feeling. He is certainly entitled to an explanation of his connection with the turning loose, and so promptly too, oftwo

fgentlemen

whoee guilt is about as well

Pawned as anything in this world can be, by their alleged payment of $1,650. There

A paper by Miss Nellie Stevenson on what has been accomplished by the teach ers of the township at the institute, was very good.

This was followed with a paper by W. Jones on "Which will probably be the Universal Language of the Future." His paper was remarkable for its brevity, yet he gave all the points that could be made upon a subject of so speculative a nature. His conclusions were that the English language would be the one. President Jones gave some very interesting points upon fee same.

After this excrcise the chairman announced that i* was time for adjournment for dinner.

Institute convened at 2 p. M., when President Jones gave quite a little talk upon the two points, punctuality and morality, in which h^paid a just tribute to the pure and noble character of onr Hon. R. W. Thompson,

Then followed a paper on spelling, diacritical mark, etc.,by Charles A. Jackson, which was very well prepared.

Mis9 Mary Rankin read a paper upon the "Prose Writers of Gfeat Britain, which was Very well read and was an entertaining paper.

are not at the present time, in all of Vigo County, two other men who would pay $1,650, if that is the amount tbey paid, or $6.50 or the the thousandth part of cents to be released from jail on an indictment for being accomplices in that robbery. These men paid because they were mixed up in it.

Now we understand that there might have been, as Mr. Kelly says, some difficulty in proving this on them. Well suppose there was. There was some difficulty in catching them. It would have been decent, at any rate, to have held them until the very last moment, to obtain proof of what everybody is morally certain was trbe. If Mr. Kelley hasn't known to amoral certainty that these men were paying their way out of the difficulty, and by so doing confessing their guili and showing their fear that Mr. Kelley would stumble on proof, then he is not posted and has not been posted for the past week. In this matter he ought to have had a tithe of the regard for the people of Vigo county and the trust they confided to his care and keeping,that Mr. Patrick Shannon is alleged to have shown for his stolen dollars. It is drawing a fine distinction when there is proof of guilt against parties sufficient to make them disgorge to an individual more than they stole, as it is alleged, but not sufficient to hold them for a trial before a Vigo county jury for their crime against tbe laws of Indiana.

Mr. Kelley ought to explain his explanation.

Otter Creek Township Institute. To the Editors of the GAZETTE. Your correspondent, by invitation, had the pleasure ot attending the closing exercises of the above named Institute. We expected to find a lew teachers gathered for the purpose of edifying each other with the massive and

lengthfy

essays, etc.,

upon the various topics essential to school matters But judge of our surprise as we neared the Denny school house, to see some eight or ten buggies and wagons in tbe vara surrounding the school building. Thinking, pel haps, that we had stumbled upon the wrong place, our heart stood still from sheer fnght, but the fates were with as for, on enquiring for that genial gentleman, Dr. Watkins, the trustee, we found that he was pre3ent, and being ushered into the presence of a large assemblage of ladies and gentlemen we soon recovered that degree of tranquility for which reportorial gentlemen are noted. Casting our eves around we beheld the laces of ex-Presides Jones, ol the State Normal, and wife, Mr. Irwin, Miss Pratt and others whom it had been our pleasure to have met before. feeling of contentment having taken possession of us we were eager for the fray.

At a few minutes past eleven the Institute was called to order by the Trustee. Minutes of previous meeting read and adopted.

Report of the different schools for the month of February were read by R. B. Davis, showing an excellent degree of attendance, Ac.

A paper by Miss OUie Perrin. of school No. 5, on the steps necessary to elect a President of the United States.

The paper was brief but the facts were stated in a very clear manner. The paper was discussed by President Jones and R. B. Davis.

R. B. Davis gave a short talk on defects of our school system. Miss S. K. Pratt, read a general report from the term ending February 24th. Per cent of attendance seven^-sevan. Teachers having largest number ef visitors Miss Pratt, thirty-nine Miss Stevenson, thirty-two. Miss Irwin's paper upon "How physical causes the effect to locate cities," was brief but good. On motion a committee was appointed to draft resolutions thanking the trustee and teachers for their efforts to make a succcss of tbe institute work. We could not.clase this sketch, without a word in fiftor oPDr. Watkins, the trustee. To him belongs much of the credit, in having so ably aided the teachers in their woik. Never absent from the institute, taking a deep interest in the matters educational, untiring in his efforts to fulfil to the letter his duty as an officer. Surelv he is the right man for the place and fatter Creek township is to be congratulated on having so good a roan for the place. Your correspondent desires to return through these column his thanks for favors received.

A

f** COURT HOUSE ECHOES

From Wednesday's Daily.

The court room during the progress of tbe trial was principally taken up by colored men who were anxious to hear one ot their own race plead at the bar. Considerable curiosity, too, was manifested by those of Caucasian persuasion, but it must be admitted that tbe curiosity of the latter was no more than a morbid desire to have some fun with the importation. Mr. McCowan is a young man and m«y make a lawyer some day, though at pre-'-ut the outlook is a little cloudy. .NKW SUITS—CIRCUIT COURT. 12.973—S S Early and Harriet E. Van Wyck vs. John B.

A "Find" of Pieces of Skull and Brains Over the River*

GREAT CRY AND LITTLE WOOL.

From Tuesday'8 Daily.:

This morning a farmer named Webb Bay less discovered blood and what seemed to be portions of human skull and brains on the grade between this city and Macksville, or. to more accurately locate it, about three-quarters of a mile from the county bridge, near the trestle work. He instantly reported the facts to police headquarters, bringing with him such pieces as he could pick up after a hasty survey of the scene. Chief of Police Russell and Policeman Buckingham started to investigate tbe matter. They found apparent

that extended from the south side of the

f'lenty

rade down to the edge of the water, of blood was scattered around promiscuously, and also several hairs that put the officers in doubt as to whether they belonged to a hog or a human Some of those present advocated the theory tha* there had been a hog killing there last night, and that that accounted for the "find." Others, however, were of the opinien that there had been foul play that the portions of the skull and brains were evidences of

A TERRIBLE MURDER,

in which the victim resisted until he was overpowered and his body thrown into the river. Chief Russell dragged the water in hope of finding a body, but was unsuccessful. After searching around the scene for a considerable time for a clue the officers returned to this side of the river in a skiff. Then, in company with a GAZETTE reporter, they started in quest of a phvsician to examine the portions of skull and brains which were wrapped up in a newspaper. On Ohio street Dr. Swafford, who was driving by, was stopped and he and Dr. Gifford, after an examination, gave as their opinion that the portions of the skull were those of a humaa being. Dr. Swafford suggested that if tbe pieces were taken to his office he would put them under a glass and state definitely in regard to them. As to the brains, the doctors stated that thoee of humans and animals could not be distinguished apart. However, the identity of the brains are of course the same as that ot the skull.

DOES IT CONNECT?

c-f sm

About 11 o'clock Frank Lee, proprietor of a saloon in the West End, called at the police station and stated that a boot covered with blood had been found in the rear part of his premises. He also gave further information which is not divulged at this time, as it might inconvenience the officers in their efforts to unravel the affair.

Our heart falters. Our hand refuses to write any farther. The mystery is solved. The corpse has been taken out of the water. It was tenderly laid on the bank bv loving hands and as tenderly scrutinized. It was a dog.

Railroad News. From Tuesday's Dally.

Will wonders never cease? The C. & E. I. Ry. whiah, though it is almost daily reported to have been swallowed bv some line still continues to prosper under the same excellent management, is now said to have been turned over to the Chicago, Danville and Vincennes. The following startling dispatch from Chicago is selfexplanatory:

CHICAGO, March 7.—Under the decision of the United States Supreme Court yesterday the management of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois is transferred to the Chicago, Danville and Vincennes railroad. The decision declares invalid the foreclosure and sale under the mortgage, and reinstates the old bondholders, whose bonds have of late been practically valueless. It also invalidates all acts of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois directory, makes null and void the bonds, stocks and securities, and as the road under the late management has greatly increased in value, the old bondholders will now be able to pay off the mortgage by retiring the money on the securities.

THE ZIKWS HERB.

Mr. H. L. Bushnell, of the C. «fc E. I. at this point, was sought by the GAZETTE interviewer, but was out of town at Wabast, Indiana, and Mr. Palmer, hie chief assistant, was not informed further than just what this dispatch states. There is no appeal from a United States Supreme Court decision so that all the C. & E. I. consolidation schemes will probably be null "*:!I THE ILLINOIS MIDLAND.

For the time being all traffic on the Illinois Midland railway is stopped entirely. From and after this date and until further notice neither passengers nor freight will be received for transportation over the road. This is attributed to the fact that about a week ago the Peoria & Pekin Union railway, a corporation which has monopolized all tbe grounds and railroad tracks in the citv of Peoria and over the roadway of which the Mid land and all other roads running east out of Peoria have hitherto entered the city, passed an order forbidding the Midland to use the tricks except on a condition with which it was impossible for the management ef the Midland to comply on so short notice. This practically shut the Midland trains out of Peoria and has so disorgan ized and interfered with business that tbe trains have been kept running only with the neatest of difficulty. To this today is added a further complication in the striking of the engineers end firemen on the freight trains. It has, therefore, been deeidba for the present not to ran trains except a passenger from here to Decatur and return, and in this condition the matter will be left until tbe United States court has passed on certain matters to he brought before it by Mr. Geais, Receiver of the road, touching the snap judgment of the Midland taken by the owners of the road over whose track an entrance is made into Peoria.

BtOSCOE COCKLING.

Lord Boscoe Conkling was born at Albany N. Y., October 30,1829, and is, consequently, in his fifty-second year. He early studied law, and in 184v removed to Utica, where he followed its practice with success. In 1850, he became District Attorney for Oneida County, and in 1858, was elected Mayor of Utica. In 1855, he was sent to Congress to represent his district, ana was re-elected three times. In 1867, 1873, and 1879, he was elected to the U. S. Senate, where his term would not have expired until 1885 had he not with his caudal appendage, one Thomas H. Piatt, of limited but malodorous reputation, jumped, so to speak, out of the windows of the Senate chamber to escape the threshing which their pestilential insolence invited and deserved. It was given out that this remarkable acrobatic feat was performed for the purpose of securing a vindication at the hands of the Legislature of New York. But after crawling around on his abdomen, cajoling, coaxing, wheedling and threatening the Legislators he was knocked down and dragged out of that arena as he had been out of the Chicago Convention the preceding summer. This seemed to finish him, but Mr. C. A. Arthur has lately given him his prize in the lottery of assassination, ot which he and his malignant quarrel were tbe provocative occasion though not tbe responsible cause. He has been nominated by his friend Arthur to be a Justice of the Supreme Court and by the monumental blundering of the Senate I has been confirmed. His insufferable irritability, his arrogance, his supercilious insolence, his pompous intolerance and bis general cussedness will be transferred to the Supreme Court and be

8le

iven an opportunity to blossom and bear fruit of bitterness and partisan malignancy in tbe highest tribunal of the land. Arthur is apestilent politician and Conkling is his prophet. Judge Conkling! Phew!! Let the nation hold its nose!!!

HEAVY PURCHASE '"f

Of Fine Boots and Shoes By J. R. Fisher.

Sir. J. ft Fisher has just bought the extensive stuck of boots and shoes which were in the store of J. B. Lodowica on the corner of Sixth and Main, when that house went on|of business/This stock wa» a very extensive one and particularly so in fine goods. It wss the stock which the Messrs. Ludowici, not intending to continue in the business hsd on their hsnds. They offered it as a whole to Mr. Fisher at a great bargain, and he, with the push and energy which characterises him it all his enterprises, took it in.

He has had it breught to his boot and shoe store at No. 329 Main street and added it to his already large assortment in store there. These two lane lots ell' goods crowd the store beyond its capacity aud it is Mr. Fisher's purpose in fact it is absolutely necessary with hisa on account of his room, to close out by a big sale a considerable portion of it That he has determined to do. And he proposes to do it by marking down the goods to the lowest possible notch and giving his customers a share in the splendid bargain he made in this large pur. pose. He will sell boots and shoes of all grades snd qualities, rubber goodsy slippers and in fact everything in that line for the next thirty days st prices lower his competitors can bsgrihe same1 grades of goods in the East

All be asks is to have the people oT Tern Haute,\igocounty sad the sur-i rounding country call at his store, examine the goods and learn tbe prices.

Remember the place, No, street.
