Judge Lowry, of the Superior Court
at Fort Wayne, has rendered an opinion
holding that the FIRST section OF the law
known as the Suspected Felon act is I'M
constitutional, on the ground that, I'M
der its provisions, defendant can be held
and put on trial without a written COM
plant, and can also be virtually COM
PEELED to testify against himself. both of
which are in conflict with the constitu-
ton. The law was drafted after the Il

A Queer Case.

Carpenter, the mesmeric performer
who has been giving exhibitions in the
town hall for the past week was put
under arrest last Tuesday night on the
charge of trespass on the person of
Peter Bibeau who lives on Maple street.
At the first of the exhibitions Carpenter
called for volunteers to come forward
and be mesmerised, and among those
who went upon the stage was Bibeau, a
young man about twenty years old, he
was gotten under mesmeric influence
and with others was put through vari-
Gus kinds of performances that evening
and the next, after which he was taken
sick with stoppage of the bowels, and
it is not expected that he will recover.
Bibeau's father sues Carpenter for $4,000
damage for trespass and he is now IN
der charge of Deputy Sheriff Humphrey
1t is said that the young man has been
previously troubled with the same
disease and was not feeling well at the
time he was mesmerised and his friends
claim that the strain put upon him in
some of the performances produced this
dangerous attack, it is not clear to the
public mind yet though how Carpenter
can be held accountable for it if such
are the facts.

The Y. M. C. A. lecture course will
open on Monday evening next, Oct. z,
with lecture by Joseph Cook of Bos-

Cook is the one lecturer most sought
for at the present day, and as he has
never been in this vicinity, we shall ex-
pect to see full house.
After Mr.. Cook, the lecture commit

additional lecturer to be engaged.
With such a course, we feel sure the
public will be both instructed and en-

tickets should be sold at once. The
course tickets are put down at $1.50,

Peachann.

Peacham.
The young men of this town INDUCED
in an old-fashioned squirrel hunt on
Thursday and Friday of last week. Mr.
F. E. Palmer and Mr.. Geo. D. Mears
were the leaders of the respective sides.
All wild animals and birds good for
food or of mischievous prOpensities,
were on the list of game, ranking in
the count variously from 10 to 1000.
The count of both sides amounted Il, :
26O, Palmer's side leading by less than
200. The highest count of any one
hunter was made by Mr.. Palmer, the
contents of his game bag amounting to
l $50. The defeated party invited their
opponents to a most excellent oyster
supper prepared under the auspices OF
the ''Young Peoples Social" and many
friends of the hunters, of both sexes,
joined in this most interesting part OF
the program. Good feeling prevailed,
and one hunter on the victorious side
in his enthusiasm declared that the
''hard times" had passed when he could
get square meal for two days work.
VIM. Kicker had $3.50 in silver come
by express last week and the Peacham
people are getting their pockets filled
with silver dollars.

hear of men who have to dig three hills
to get two potatoes.
