AN INDIANA HoRRoR.-The scene of
the tragedy is-a log hut, containing only
one room, on the bank of Anderson
river, two and q half miles from Troy.
On Saturday morning the owner of this
hut, Mr.. Geldreich, left home, going to
Troy, where he renamed until afternoon,
attending to some business. Upon his
return in the middle of the afternoon lie
was unable to open the door of his cabin
He raped several times, but no one
came, and finally he burst the door open
and was Mortified to witness tho scene of
blood that had been enacted there. Be-
hind the door he found the ghastly corpse
of his son, aged ten years, whom he had
left bright and happy in the morning,
now cnt and mangled. Twelve gashes
were cut on the head, neck. and shoaId-
ers of the boy, and he lay in pool of
blood. Near bureah on the opposite
side of the room, lay Mrs. Geldreich, in
a great pool of blood. In addition to
three pistol shot wounds, one ball enter
ing the left eye and lodging in the brain,
another the left cheek, and third above
the ear, on the same side, there were
thirteen gaping wounds about the head,
neck, and shoulders Of the murdered
woman. The shots were most probably
fred i'll rapid succession, and for fear life
was not extinct, sho was mutilated with
hatchet
The youngest child, aged four years,
was found in one corner of the room with
two serious wounds. made by the same
hatchet. one on the neck and the other
in the shoulder. The murderer or mur
derers doubtless thought they had killed
the little one. The recovery of the child
may lead to the identification of the
murderer.

the right to manufacture and sell It
In certain counties In this State had
been purchased by our friend, Melvin
Richards. After making the purchase
Mr.. r. got up set Of new patterns,
making several material changes In
It's construction, and a lew days since
the improved article was brought into
the market. They are now offered to the
public In the fullest confidence Of their
superiority over every other pump.
The working parts being located at the
bottom Of the we'll or clstern, It Ia i'm
possible for them to freeze; and as the
pipe Is made OF galvanized Iron there
can be no corrodIng, and consequent.
ly no dlscoloraLion nor unpleasant
taste communicated 10 the water. The
universal sentiment expressed by those
who have seen this pump operate, Is,
that 1t Is superior to anything of the
kind ever offered for sale In this region,
Orders for them will receive prompt
attention by addressing Mr.. Richards.

DEATH OF A PROMINENT MERCHANT.
We regret that 1t Is our sad duty this
morning, to record the death OF one OF
our prominent merchants and highly
esteemed citizens. We refer 10 the de-
mise Of Mr.. P. G. HIldreth, which sad
event occurred at his late residence on
Centre street. last Saturday morning
about four o'clock. Mr.. II. complained
the previous evening OF slight indIs.
position, but the application Of a
simple remedy afforded immediate re-
lief. He retired about his usual
hour In apparently good health, but at
three O'Clock was seized with violent
crampIng pains In the stomach, which
continued with more or less severity
until after four, when death relieved
him from his sutierlngs. Mr.. Il. had
been engaged inactive business In this
city for a number Of years, and had &C.
quired a iaIr competency OF this
worlds goods. In all the relations Of
life he was esteemed for bis excellent
qualities, and his early and sudden
death Is sincerely regretted by large
circle OF relatives and friends.

COMPUTATION FOR OFFICERS SER.
vANTs.-An important decision was
rendered In the Supreme Court OF the
Unltee States, last week, involving the
question Of Communication for officers
servants. AS many OF our readers are
personally Interested In 1t, we give the
following abstract Of the opinion:
The case OF the United States ps. Gil
more, decided on Tuesday In the So.
preme Court, involves question OF
great interest 10 all the officers OF the
late army, and its history is worth a
brief recSpitulatlon. By a law passed
In 1916 officers OF the army were allowed
for each servant the pay, rations and
clothing Of a private soldier, or money
IN lieu thereof. On the 9th OF August,
1861, the pay OF privates was raised
from Sll to $l3 q month, and a law
passed July II, 1852, prohibited cons
struction that would Increase the emol.
ument Of the commissioned officers OF
the army by allowing additional pay
for servants. The pay of private was
again raised by the law OF June %,
1854, to SIC per month, without any
prohlbltory clause, and 1t was claimed
that the restriction of the act Of
July II, 1862. no longer applied,
and that officers were entitled to Sl6
month for each servant. Comptroller
Brodhead held that the acts OF April
q, 1851, Aug. 6. 1861, July II, T762, and
June 20, 1861, were all In pari ndtertd,
and must be construed with reference
TO each other, and that the act Of 1864
In this view merely amended the act Of
1861 by giving the soldier $40 Instead Of
slS month, leaving In full vIRor the
prohibition In the act OF 1902 that n
re-enHctment OF a former law could be
assumed from the omission 10 renew
prohibition; that the law which per.
mIts gives away TO law which for
bids, and that the prohibition was not
repealed expressly, nor by necessary
implication. Claims Of the kind were.
therefore, disRllowed. Tho case was
brought before the Court OF Claims,
which gave judgment for the claimant.
bat an appeal was taken to the United
States Supreme Court, which has aus.
tanned the course OF Comptroller Brod>
head, by which millions are saved 10
the Treasury. The Paymaster General
computed the amount which would be
required II this claim had been sus~
tained at 1000, 900.
