Death of "Dicl Kennedy"
IKOkomO Tribune,

Rokomo's learned crow, "Dick Kennedy
is no more. During the past winter he has
been suffering with broken leg and could
not travel around much. Recently he wan
dered away from home, and not returning,
inquiry was made as to his whereabouts,
when it was found that he had been killed
by dog. "Dick" was a prominent charac-
ter of Kokomo aud Howard county. He
was known far and wide. About FIVE years
ago, Mr.. P. B. Kennedy, while on visit
to his farm, a short distance from this
city, found Dick" lying near d tree, having
evidently fallen from a nest high above in
the branches Mr. X. took pity on the
Hedging and brought him home. The bird
soon grew stronger, and became general
playmate of Mr.. KS grandchildren. NO
pains were taken to educate Dick. He de-
veloped keen perceptive faculty from his
early youth, and it was not long before he
began to talk little. Until his leg was
broken DICK was q regular attendant at
fchool. Every morning, at the first tap of
the bell, he was off to the school yard, and
perching himself in a tree he would
cry out bad boy" to all tardy pupils II
was lamentable fact that Dick became
doubtless, unconsciously( addicted to pro-
family. He would frequently exclain 80
Lord" without seeming to be impious.
Dick was q very mischievous bird during hi,
whole life, and numerous causes could be
assigned for his clipped wing or disabled
limbs, when he would hobble home in the
evening. If a window was left open for an
hour In the morning in any part of the city,
Dick would steal into the house, and turn
things topsy-tnrvy, picking out all the
pins from a cushion, throwing them on
the floor, carrying off jewelry, and doing
other mischief. In politics, Dick was
Republican. Many of our citizens
doubtless remember the part he took in the
notable campaign of 1876 Upon every day
a Republican demonstration was held Dick
was on hand, flying around and watching
the rally" with evident satisfaction. But
when the Democrats attempted to rally
Dick would hide away in the woodshed and
mutter bad boy" all day. The children
especially were great friends to Dick, and
they will learn of his death with sadness OF
heart. OF cheerful disposition himself
Dick made happy surroundings. In very
many respects he was a remarkable bird
and his early death will be mourned
Many interesting incidents could be related
of his curious pranks Peace to the ashes oil
the poor crow He has gone TO the "happy
hunting ground" where there are no "bad
boys" to throw stones at him, and no dog:
to bite him evermore

The Hendricks Club.
New York Express. |

The formation of a Hendricks club at
Washington is a gratifying circumstance.
And it is especially noteworthy that both
tie Indiana senators, the Democratic repre-
sentatives of that State and a number of
other prominent and influential men Joined
the club at the start OF course, such club
does not necessitate the nomination OF ex
Governor Hendricks. 1t is q fitting and de-
served compliment to the ability and worth
and high reputation of a statesman whom it
is credit to support. Mr.. Hendricks has
strong points as presidential candidate;
and one of the strongest points in his favor
is the fact that he has Kept the Democracy
of his State united and harmonious, loyal to
their principles, devoted to the cause.
There are no dissensiols in that State
Strong and able men there are, who nat
urally aspire to leadership, and would
fill important offices with credit. Yet they
never swerve in their fidelity to the party,
which in that State is unit. and would give
popular majority of 10 coo to Ex-Governor
Hendricks in spite of all the Republicans
have done to colonies the State with South
ern negroes. Mr.. Hendricks hes a good
record. No man can say aught against him
His views are moderate and conservative,
well representing the Democracy of the whole
country. He has many elements OF popular
ity, and resembles Lincoln in the sturdy
honesty, simplicity and straightfOrwardness
of his nature, and his hearty sympathy with
and regard for the people. He consented to
take second place in 1876 against his will, at
the urgent solicitation OF the leaders OF the
party in all sections of the country. and the
result proved mis- personal popularity.
Among Democratic candidates for the nom.
instIon his name shines with particular
lustre

AReminiscence of the War.

In October, 1864, Lsmdin p. Milligan, q
highly respectable citizen of Indiana: Col
onel Bowles, a veteran of the Mexican war,
and one HoIssy, a hostler, were tried by mi
ltary com mission, in indianapolis, on charge
OF treason, found guilty and sentenced to
death. Indiana was q peaceful State, and
the laws had their full sway. The men be-
longsd neither to the army nor the navy,
and a grand jury OF the circuit court OF the
United States was convened In Indianapolis
at the time of the arrest. Joseph K MELON
aid, now United States senator from Indiana,
was counsel for the three prisoners Vainly
he objected to the competency of the tri-
bunal. He then went to Washington TO see
President Lincoln, Mr.. President" said
he, II don't think that you want to execute
these men,"
"No, Joe," Mr. Lincoln replied, 81 don't

as little as / do, there would be no meat
eaten in this world. Pll keep these men In
prison awhile, and tt en- let:them go.
Mr. Lincoln was about to release all politi-
cal prisoners when he was assassinated
Andrew johnson became president. He ap-
proved the finding OF the court martial, and
the nen were sentenced to be executed on
May 49, 1865. On the 10th Milligan petit

A Question of His Own Asking.

One cold winter evening knot of village
WORTHLESS were convened around a stove in a
country store in Western town, warming
their fingers by the stoveplpe and telling
stories and cracking jokes. The school
master, the blacksmith, the barber the con-
stable, the clerks and the storekeeper all
were there.
After they had drank cider and smoked
cigars to their hearts content, and when
all the current topics of the day had been
exhausted, the schoolmaster proposed a new
kind OF bitters to remove the monotony OF
the evening.
neigh bors, and whoever should ask a Ques-
tior that he himself could not solve was to
pay the cider reckoning for the entire party.
The idea took at one, and the school
master. "by virtue of his Office" called on
Dick D., whom most folks thought fool
and few knave, to put the first question.
"Wal, nelghbors," said Dick. drawling out
his words and looking ineffably dull aud
stupid. you've seen where squirrels dig
their holes, haven't you? Can any one of
you tell me the reason why they never
throw out any dirt?'
This was poser" and even the master
had to give it up"
1t now devolved on Dick to explain.
THE reason is this, that they first begin
at the bottom of the hole"
Stop stop!" cried the schoolmaster
startled out of all prudence by so monstrous
an assertion. Pray, now, how does the
squirrel get there?"
"Ah master" replied the cunning fool,
that's a question of your own asking"
The result had not been anticipated. The
"schoolmaster was abroad at that particu-
lar iuDcture.
