Indian Counting Season.
fAustin (Nev.) Reyeille.l

The Indian counting season will
open in about ten days-so we are in
formed by Capt. Sam, an Indian high
in the councils Of the Piute nation.
The Indians will then break up their
camps near the towns and take to the
hills, where they will remain en-
camped until after the spring fan
dango. This counting season-which
is the best name we can find for it
is the principal holiday Of the Indian,
and while it lasts, no money or per-
suasion willinduce an Indian, male or
female, to perform labor.

the drug business which he was con-
Quoting at the time of his death.
As man he was positive to fault
Agood neigh5or He had energy and
push, so it may be we'll said, that in
~ years he realized that life was not
a failure. He secured a competency
and assisted his children. As Chris
tain he was jealous. and for As years
he bore an humble part in the visible
church contributing largely of his
means for the support Of religious en-
terprise. AS father, kind and affec-
Sionate, seven children bear the honor
and respect of his name. As a hus-
band, constantly frightened by 81
years experience Of married life with
his surviving widow, who with him
babe adieu to eastern home and
friends, to dare the hardships and
laugh at the imp0ssibilities of pioneer
life in the forests of Indiana, to live
for each other the union though long
makes the separation short. He had
been watching the developments of
Marshall county for As years and with
great satisfaction he saw the forest
give place to the beautiful fields and
the solitude of the wilderness broken
by the hustle Of busy homes. He saw
the population Of his county increase
16O times. In the midst of prosperity
surrounded by friends like a ripe
sheaf he was gathered by the harvest
ers Of eternity. M.

4 Pioneer Of MarshalI County Gone

The subject Of the following sketch.
the late Able c. Hickman, OF Argos,
stands very prominent In the early
settlement and history Of this county.
Mr.. Hickman died at his home in
Argos on the 18th inst, and ON the
18th inst his remains were taken to
Rochester, where he was buried by
the L 0. o. F. with the honors OF the
order In their beautiful cemetery.
He was born in Harrison county,
Va, September LIST. 1906, and was
therefore nearly ~ years Of age. He
chose the profession of farmer and
snigrated to Indiana In 1882 and set
Ned on the Michigan road. two miles
south Of Argos, as the lands belong
Ing to the road were the only lands In
market. This was four years prior to
the organization Of Marshall county.
AS soon as the Government lands was
surveyed In 1886. he moved OF west
Of the road and settled on the farm
now owned by Adam BixeL Thus he
was the first actual settler on State
lands after the survey-in this neigh.
borhood. Three years after, In 1888,
the nrst society for religious worship
was organized at Mr.. Hickman's
house by the Rev. Owen, of the Meth
odist Episcopal church. Thus meth
odism was introduced into Mar
shall county. His house continued a
regular place OF Worship for several
pears. In 1874 the first house of wor-
SHY erected In the county was built
on his farm. In 1863 he moved to
Fulton county, and In 1864 to the town
OF Rochester, where he engaged In
the mercantile business until 1870
when he again resumed the business
OF farming. In 1876 he took up his
residence In Argos and engaged in

The Insult to the Jews.

On Sunday morning Rev. Fl. w.
Beecher announced that he could
preach In the evening In relation to
the jews The discourse was promp-
ted by the recent infamous order OF
Judge Hilton to exclude Jews from
the Grand Union Hotel, Saratoga.
The announcement attracted large
congregation, and there were many
unable to gain admission. He took for
his text the 34th verse OF the 14th
chapter OF the Acts: "But when they
knew he was q Jew, all, with one
voice.. about the space Of two hours,
cried out, @Great is Diana OF the
Ephesians. Mr.. Beecher said that
he became personally acquainted
with Mr.. Seligman at the Twin Noun
tain House. and knew him well. He
knew him to be an estimable gentle
man In every way and sense OF the
word. The jews formed large por-
ton OF our community, and he must
say they were not only excellent and
thrifty citizens, but an exceptionally
law-abiding people. He considered
that great insult had been put upon
them; but 1t had shocked intelligent
and refined people-those whose
opinions we're worthy of respect; that
il led the Israelites Of the country to
believe they were held in great re-
spect by their Christian fellow citi-
zens. He further remarked that they
had nover stolen $4,000, 900 from the
city and endeavored to make terms
In jail. OF all people they were the
last that should have been insulted.
He did not think it a good sign to see
man who had inherited his money
cast insult upon man who made his
estate by honest and honorable indus
try. In the end. he thought good
would come OF the insult, and he
would advise them not to hold pub
lie meeting, or put on armor to fight
mosquitoes.

when they were suddenly confronted
by force Of officers and express men,

but most desperate struggle ensued,
resulting in the capture of the entire
band. They are all young men and

Court had the temerity to express a

law. The dignity of the appellate
court was hurt, and it was necessary
to vindicate it. Probably it would be
well il the Supreme Cont would con-
duct itself as not to run foul of so

Bench two trials to get the law right

full elevation Of ground, on the b. s.

miles west Of the northwest corner
of Kosciusko county, and contains
900 to !, 200 Inhabitants. 1t is sur
rounded by one OF the best, IL not the
very best timbered districts in North
ern Indiana. Such land when cleared
always reduces largely In response
to the husbandman's toll. and hence
the elements of thrift that are exhib-
tied in the town.

A party Of Starke county natives
came to Plymouth to settle little
difficulty, and the way they settled it
was amusing. A young man by the
name Of Chawney, was charged with
rape, by Mrs. Cain. The woman
who resembles a long Michigan ~elm
peeler," her husband and young
Chawney came to Plymouth in the
the same wagon, and at once pro-
ceeded to the office OF Prosecutor
Jones, who It was agreed should be
the Solomon of the sublime occasion.
Jones heard the facts and decided
that case would lie against young
Chawney. But Cain said that Chaw-
ney was pretty good sort Of fellow
and he believed he would compromise
for $50. Chawney here now came on
the scene. and by dint OF much bick-
ering succeeded in effecting settle
ment on the basis OF $40. But to ex-
onerate young Chawney. Mrs. Cain
signed q paper averring that it was
not a rape, by way of precaution TAX
ing a confession from Chawney that
she had done wrong, and was ashamed
OF himself Thus the seething ele-
ments Of discord have been allayed,
oil has been poured upon the troubled
waters, and Starke county rejoiceth.
