The accident accupied such a short space of lime that the engineer was un.ableio a'op the train, and but for the proirpt action of Mr. Abbott the lady would undoubtedly hare been killed. She was removed to her home, a few doors distant, where the application of restoratives soon brought her to consciousness.

HUSTER'S ROBBfeRY.

James Hunter's ^tore Entered Through the Basement and a Trap Door and Between $360 tad $490

Worth of Goods Taken

How It W« Bone, Etc,

From Taesday's Bally

When the salesmen opened James Huntei's furnishing store this momiug they fonnd the floor partly strewn with goods.the jewelry case rifled ot all nearly its contents and a trap door leading to the basement open. The cash drawer at tbe rear, used for the Uundry, was pried open and the contents, only about $6 or $7 in change taken. Chief Police Fasig has taken vigorously hold of the case and the public will awhit developments. The manner at effecting the entrance was peculiar and will furnish a hint to merchants and others to take the necessary precautions closing entrances to the baseme&ts, LOW that the burglars have adopted thai mode of entrance. The men came iu unobserved through a grating on the alley at the rear. They evidently did expect to find a trap door as the main one has long since been closed up and the base burner stands on top of it. They came provided with a brace and bit and a obise) A number of auger holes were borai through in a straight line and the intention evidently was to cut out a place with a chisel large enough for a man to enter. But this plan was abandoned on finding that the place they had selected was an old trap door. Some goods were piled on and also the end of one ot the long counters rested on it, but these they pried off and entered the store. They took all but two or three of the boxes containing cuff and collar buttons, watch charms and other of the more valuable goods of the character, amounting, in all, to between $350 and $400.

taken. All the others were un

der linen goods in the cases and were either not seen or were not cared for. The cases robbed ate on tbe west side of the room and the elaborate "trim" in the show window and the fact that the cases are high, enabled the burglars to work without being observed from tbe street.

The brace and bit and the chisel were left in the basement. Their departure seems to have been hurried, for they did not take quite all the goods laid out. A tray of pearl goods they threw on the floor and scattered the rontents.

Once admitted to the basement, it would be easy for a similar robbery to be commi'.ted in almost any store in town, and it behooves every one to see that their side and back gratings are fastened. It is scarcely likely any one will attempt to enter from the front.

THE TERRE HAUTE WESKLY

AN OLD, OLD STORY.

Tiilie Wortmftn'8 Fall From Grace and Snbseqntnt Disappearance.

A week or so ago, It will be remembered, a young man arrived in this city from Carlisle, Sullivan eounty, in search ofhissistrr, Hiss Tiilie Wortman, who disappeared from- her borne on the 9th inat. Miss Wortman was a pretty and vivacious girl, aged aboat sixteen, and hadbeen going with a young man named Ed Pifer, a son of a leading oitizen of the neighborhood of Carlisle. Their in timacy, however, was not of the right sort, for at tbe time of her disappear ance she was known to be in a delicate condition. On tbe 9tb inst. tbe girl was last seen in Piret's company at tbe depot, where she boarded the uieht train, going north. She oame to this city, Piftr either coming with her or following her, for nere he deserted her and returned home. She was seen here by the police in tears and in terrible distress, and she lelt the city on an Eastern by train just about the time her brother arrived here in search of her. She has not since been seen nor heard of by any person who knows her. As soon as the brother could return he procured the ar rest of Pifer and another young man named Ol Kabls on a charge of kidnapping, and they have been held to $400 bond. The affair has created, considerable stir at Carlisle, where the parties are well known and of respectable connections. The young lady's friends fear she will do herself barm. Intense feeling prevails at Carlisle against thr young men, to whom Tiilie Wortman's sad fallis attributed.

The GAZETTE of Saturday contained a notice of the fact that when the midnight express from Evansville arrived here Friday night, the bloody remnants of a man's check shirt were found on the forward tracks of the locomotive. Subsequently it was also stated, the mangled remains of Thos. Fitzgerald were found on the track at Decker's station, which established the identity of the victim. Fitzgerald was a resident of Johnson township, Knox county, and Friday evening he was arrested at Decker's station for intoxication. He was much given to dissipation. It is supposed Fitzgerald committed suicide, as he went Out to the railroad about two weeks ago and laid down on the track, saying that he would let tbe train kill him, but he was pulled off. Sheriff Kackley, ot Vincennes, who took Fitzgerald's bond Friday evening on the charge of intoxication, says at 9 e'olock that evening be was not drunk and that he seemed to be perfectly sober. When last seen he had started home with a jug of coal oil. When found the re. mains were maDgled fearfully. The body was stripped nude, even to the boots. The sum of $14 in money was found in his clothes. The theory is that be committed self-destruction while slightly under the influence ot liquor. ,,,

Divorce Suit. -il

Louise E. Smith has entered suit in the Circuit Court against Abraham M. Smith for divorce, alleging that they were married on the 25th of October, 1866, and lived to-gether until the 19th of February, 1888. She avers that she performed all tbe duties incumbent upon her like a true and faithful wife, that for tbe past three years he has failed to make reasonable support for his family that he is an habitual drunkard, and that his treatment of her for the last ten years has been cruel and inhuman. She asks for the custody ofCbas.M. Smith and Harry £. Smith, aged respectively fourteen and sixteen, as she claims he is not a proper person to have charge ot them.

What Makes a Gentleman. The colored literary society at the Third street A M. E. church will debate this subject to-nigbt.

Resolved in thafmoney is the ptincipal element that completes the character of a gentleman."

Thos Gulherie will "whoop up" the argument on the side of the affirmktive, being convinced that shekels count in this country and J. H. Mitchell will contend that there are other and stronger influences. There promises- to be a warm time among the bretheren.

Senator Vo^rbees last night returned from Paris, Ky., wheie he defended J. Hooker Stivers for the mnrder of Ber Scully, the well known turfman, last October. The trial occupied the whole of last week. The jury brought a verdict of involuntary manslaughter, and fixed his punishment at ten years in the penitentiary. The crime was committed on October 31, 1882, Scully having whipped the younger Stivers for insult" iug Scully's sister. Hooker Stivers came into town, and finding Scully, shot him down without a moment's notice.

The light punishment is mainly due to tbe effoits of Mr. Yoorhees and the othei distinguished counsel in the cas

Saturday afternoon about 1 o'clrck a man probably about 30 years of age, well dressed and a stranger, got a bay mare pony at Fouts & Hunter's livery stable. He represented that he was goimrout around town to collect coal bills for a firm here. He has not been seen since, nor has the pony. The animal is a relic in tbe Hunter family and the loss is greatly missed. Tbe pony is 14 bands high, scant, blaek mane and tail, with saddle marks, and is 12 years old. A liberal reward is offered.

''"'THE WAR

Of 1882 to be Fought Over/

The Honorable Jaues A. Marshall, in his little piece in Saturday's Mail, I see, has eome to the conclusion that I am certainly immortal.' About aix years ago be wouldn't have thought of such a title for me, for at tbat time, tbe people well remember, he aod his corps of agents said I would not live in IVrro Haute six months, or in other word.#,

The officers tie ribbons and then oome out thryugb the columns of tbe papers and aay they were not authorized This is done and isn't it rather strangef And then what prompted this committeeman to tie the ribbon on the White? I can tell you. He said, when it waa tied tbere, tbat the machine deserved it, and tbat it bad merited it, and it was justice tbat be gave it tbe ribbon. Any one reading the statements made denying the authority of the award or ribbon, it appears tbat the officers of the fair were fighting me. and comiugout in the paper?, raging in bold relief that

I was practicing

fraud and deception by advertising tbat I got the ribbon at their fair, when they don't deny tbat one of their committeemen tied tbe ihbon on the White Sewing -machine. How is this that they say one of th6ir exhibitors practiced fraud and deception,. when tbeir committeeman gave the awanhto them, and at the same time expressed himself tbat bethought it justice that their goods badf merited tbe award. It their committeeman ties ribbons as awards, and theieby causes the exhibitor to advertise it, by what authority do they accuse tbat exhibitor of fraud and deoeption They say it was through an error on the part of tbe com mitteeman. It was, bey I got tbe ribbon on the White, and advertised it now I am aocused of fraud, because—as they say—of an error of tbe committeeman. am responsible for the aotion of their committeeman, I suppose. *V ell, if this is the case, I will new aay to the people at large that if they- should ever in the future think of exhibiting anything at the Vigo eounty fair, to remember that it ie possible that their ribbons may not be authorized, and if they make any display of the same, this association taav accuse them of being frauds and deceivers. Now, I will tell you what I think about this, and I am not the only party that has come to this conclusion: In tbe first place, if it is my competitors agitating this question, tbev are doing it under tbe name of tbe officers of this assbciation. while 1 have in every instance used my own r.ame and the officers ot1 tbe fair are our best men of tbe country, while the man that caused this bubble in the arrangements of these men is so very small in principle, finance, stature and in every way, ready and willing at all times to serve his master In any capacity, that it is hardly possible an almighty dollar was the eauae of this error when tbe understanding at tbe commencement of tbe fair waa tbat the sewing machines should be passed on all tbe same, whether entered or not, and now they come out boldlv and say there was no passing on machines, notwithstanding tbe ribbon was tied on tbe White, and by the eonimitteemen, too if, after that little jugcier spoke to them about it, it was the intention of this body not to tie any ribbons, they should have had all parties better posted, and this scheme perhaps wouldn't have been detected. Tes. this mistake was a bad move. However, after all my competitors' schemes of sophistry and misrepresentation, the White got the ribbon, and now that this old war is to be fought over again, notwithstanding our readers may be disgusted. I am ready and willing to battle for my rights, and intend to do it at all haazards. 1 am immortal and go it fearlessly. More anon.

The Cora Crep

Yesterday afternoon Mr. Theo. Hudnut left for Mt. Vernon for a few days stay. When af-ked about the corn crop by a GAZETTE writer he said it was unusually large down about Mt. Vernon, and the best corn he ever saw. The yield everywhere is good.

(*There

corn enough to be cheap but I do not know whether we will set it except in

uhand

to mouth quantities" said Mr. Hudnut. "The agents of the Chicano grain dealer are scattered all over &e country and they tell the fanners not to sell. They advise one way or the other according as their interests run and while the farmers are not influenced absolutely by them they frequently receive impressions that cost them something. They are letting a little corn go now at a lower price than they could have received for it a few weeks ago." "What is corn worth inquired the writer.

As to the Vigo County Fair of 1882, what 1 have said 1 have nothing to take back, but repeat it. got tbe red ribbon at that fair, and any statement to the contrary Is false, notwithstanding the numerous statements made by officers of said fair.

A great dial has been said about the ribbon that was tied on tbe White Machine at the Vigo county fair, and tbe parties or officers whose business it was to attend to the tying of ribbons where they were merited have been very free to sign statements or articles where the statements or articles seemed to be det rimentai tothe White,and why do they do this Tbe ribbon was tied' on tbe White, which has been admitted by the author! ties, and it seems to be pinching those unscrupulous men that have no regard for tbe truth, and are void of everything pertaiuinr to the principles of a man and now I want to know if anyone can tell me bow any person is going to know when tbe awards are authorized when given by thia society

O'Neal. O'Neal, though cf good family, had served a term i- the p«uitentiary ai.d was generally garded as a very tough citizen. The facts iu the case, if the deed was committed at this time, would have resulted in Instant acquittaU as it was plainly a case of sel(-de-jense but the temper of the people at tbat time waa greatly aggravated by another murder case that was worrying along, and he was indicted. Tbe case was taken to Sullivan couuty on a change of venue and was transferred back here without anything being done in the matter.

Tbe case was sst for last Friday, but the Proseeutor- was not ready, and the case came up again this morning. As it was plainly evident tbat a case couid not be made out, and therefore it would be unnecessary to plunge tbe county into another oostly trial, Prosecuting Attorney Shelton used the authority sriveu him under tbe statute to enter a nolle prosequi in the case, which he did this morning, tbe motion in writiug being as follows: Vigo Circuit Court, September Term, 1883. State va. Joseph Montgomery, Murder.

Comes now John W. Shelton, the Prosecuting Attorney, and asks leave of the court to enter a nolle prosequi in this case. Since the last postponement of the case be has made diligent inquiry and has not been able to find evidence for the state sufficient to warrant a conviction. The trial at this time would inevitably end in acquittal, and the Prosecutor is unwilling to consume the time of the court and incur the cost of a trial.
