COLUMBUS, IND, March 14.-Last Frida,
Martin Flanagan, an 1rishman living fou
miles southeast Of this city, died, and wal
buried Saturday in the Catholic grave
yard, which lies In the northeastern par
Of the city inside the city limits.
Yesterday afternoon some parties In 20
Ing through the cemetery, noticed tt,at
the dirt of q newly made grave WAS torn
up and scattered 10 every direction, which
naturally aroused their curiosity and led
them to investigate, expecting OF course 10
find the grave robbed BY ghouts.
Instead of this, imagine their horror 10
find q large dog In the grave endeayorinp
to gnaw through the coffin box, and which
turned upon Its intruders with cleaning
eyes and, growing ferociously, stood its
ground, nor could Il be driven away.
One Of the parties procured shotgun
and killed the beast, which had no doubt
been digging since the casket was lowered
into the grave. The occurrence is 60 hor.
ribly revolving In its character as 10 make
the blood almost curdle in anyone's veins
who looks at the disturbed grave.
Had not the persons who discovered Il
accidentally wandered into that part Of
the cemetery, without q doubt the coffin
would have been torn open and the Corrse
horribly mutilated.

gree devoted TO work, the discussion OF
the various propositions pending

small portion Of the time. As q general
