THE POULTRY SHOW.

The annual exhibition of the Indiana
Poultry Association is now in full blast at
Masonic Hall. The display of choice birds
is the finest that has ever been given in the
United States. The entries include some
$50 prize birds, which includ Asiatic,, Ply
mouth Rocks, Games. Hamburg Family,
Polish Bantams of all kinds There
were on exhibition birds that
weigh from nine ounces to fifteen pounds.
The display of buff Cochins is said to be, by
those who undoubtedly are capable OF
knowing, the finest ever seen in this coun-
try. There are to be seen bronze turkeys
that tip the beam at forty pounds; geese
that weigh twenty pounds. There are birds
that are valued at from s. to $3.50 on exhibi-
ton. The coops contain many imported
birds from England that attract the attention
of all who visit the hall. Mr.. Sid Conger.
of Flat Rock, has the largest and
finest collection of Plymouth Rocks that
were ever gathered together in show of this
kind. "Old Chicago" who was imported
from England four years ago at a cost of $50,
and who has won numerous prizes in thi S
and the old country, is on exhibition, and
taking all in all, this is the finest collection
ever seen in this or any other city, and
should draw large crowds. Indiana stands
at the head of the list as holding more and
better shows than any State in the Union,
and owns the finest chickens in the United
States and more of them.

The Whitaker Court Martial

WASHINGTON, Jan. Sit is said on
high authority that Judge Advocate Gen
eral Swain, in reviewing the Court
Martial proceedings in the case of Cadet
Whitaker, has raised the point that
the Court was illegally constituted because
1t was ordered by President Hayes without
any request from the Department Com
mander, and that therefore all proceedings
were void. 1t is argued that the power of
the President to order an Army Court Mar
tial is not inherent in him as the Com
mander-in Chief, but is conferred solely by
statutory authority contained in the seventy
second article of war, which reads as fol
lows:
Any general officer commanding the Army OF
the United States, separate Army or separate
Department. shall be competent to appoint Gen
eral Court Martial either in time of peace or In
time of war. But, when any such Commander is
accusor under his command, the Court shall be
appointed by the President. and its proceedings
and sentence shall be sent directly to the Secre-
lazy OF War. by whom they shall be laid before
the President for his approval or orders in the
case.
This article, it is contended, confers no
power upon the President to convene an
Army Court Martial except in contin-
gency specified. The question will probably
be referred to the Attorney General for his
opinion. The view above indicated is APP
parently strengthened by the fact that Con-
gress some years ago expressly authorized
the President to convene Court Martials in
Navy cases without restriction.

We would suggest that the writer of the
above paragraph look up little on his
French before attempting to use word from
that language. The three words, debut"
debutant" and 'debutante," have become
mixed in Nultures extensive vocabulary,
and he has only vague idea of the mean
ing of either OF them. For his benefit we
give Webster's definitions of their meaning.
and advise him to cut them out and paste
them in his hat for future reference.
Debut-A first appearance.
Debutant-A person who makes HIS first APP
pearance before the public.
Debutante-A woman making HER first APP
pearance before the public
The above extracts clearly show Vulture's
mistake. Debut" was the word he should
have used, but as "debutante' is larger
word, and Nulture has weakness for large
words, he thought it would answer just as
well. When We think that a bright and
shining light of the Senior class of our High
School could have been guilty of making
such gross mistake, we almost involuntari-
ly exclaim "Why can such things be, and
overcome Us like summer cloud" STAR.

Exit the old, Enter the New
How the old year was sent
out. an the new uShered

The time honored custom of "praying'
the old year out, was pretty generally obser-
we'd in the various churches of the city, and
when the bells rung out the tidings that the
eventful year of 1881 was numbered with
the past, thousands rose from Bonded knees
and sent up glad shouts and loud praises,
tokens of thankfulness that they had been
| spared to see the dawn of another year. The
first day OF the year being Sunday, the reg
ular New Years day festivities did not oc-
cur until Monday, and on that day business
of all kinds was suspended and everybody
gave themselves up to enjoyment. Many OF
he ladies remembered that the gentlemen
expected to call and pay their respects, and
they in return prepared to receive them i'll "A
hospitable manner. The ladies of the Royal

street the ladies had made extensive prepa-
! ratlOns to receive, and it seemed favorite
resort for the young gentlemen. The table
was replete with tempting viands, and
hearty welcome was bestowed on all who
called. At Miss Lille Smiths, 4OS West
North street the same scene presented itself
as at other places. The ladies were hand
somely attired, the lunch was excellent, the
wines rich and hearty "Happy New Years"

Douglass St. an elegant repast was set and

the grand center of attraction seem ed to be

been gaily decorated and arranged in differ

young ladies' The parlors were remarkable
for the exquisite taste displayed in arrang-
ing them, and the young ladies for their
sweet smiles and handsome costumes. TAX

able to chronicle less of disaster and more of
prosperity than has made noted its predeces-

The Street Car Accident

An investigation into the causes of the
death of Sister Assumptia was begun We'd.
neslay by Coroner Maxwell, the first witness
being William Darby, the "spotter," who
was Oh the street car before the accident.
His testimony did not differ from the state
ments made in yesterdays Sentinel He
said the driver attempted to stop the car by
putting on the brakes, but as it slid along
the track he whipped up to get across in
front of the train. After the accident he
said he examined the brake and found it in
working order. No other witnesses were ex-
amined. The Street Car Company are rep
resented by an attorney at the examination.
The testimony will be resumed this morn
ing. 1t was Professor John Young who was
passenger on the car instead of Mr..
Brown as stated. He attaches the blame to
careleSsnesS on tie part of the driver. Sis
ter Assumptia was buried yesterday morn

Chatard delivered the funeral sermon
and the ceremony was of very beautiful
character. The relatives of the unfortunate

MISTAKEN FOR A MANIAC.
A Sane Man Overpowered and Taken
to the Asylum as Lunatic.

Rather bungling mistake was made
Thursday by which sane man was taken to
the Insane Asylum instead of the right man.
Last Friday man named William Gabb,
whose home is at No 100 South East
street, was declared OF unsound mind,
and papers for his admission to the Hospital
for such people were made out and filed.
An order for his removal was received yes
terday, and Deputy Sheriffs Bradley and
Conway went after the man. Instead of
securing the right individual they arrested
one William Knapp, German, who has
been doing work around the saloon of Chris
Scheiter, corner of Delaware and South
streets. Being able only to speak broken
English, Knapp could not explain to the
Officers that he was not the right man and
not crazy. Finally he became excited and
on resisting was overpOwered and placed in
carriage after being handcuffed. Near
the Court House he Jumped from the car
rage TO the street, and the bailiffs summoned
the assistance of several men to regain
possession of the supposed lunatic.
The man shouted Justify and strongly re-
sisted his captOrs who at last bound him
with ropes and in this manner took him to
the ASYLUM. Upon arriving at the Institu-
ton the Deputies were astonished at
learning they had brought the wrong
man. and were told to bring him
back. This they did, and liberated Knapp,
whose hands were badly bruised and other
! injury sustained in his endavor to obtain
freedom. Knapp. after being brought back
to the city, created CONSERVATION by going
into a saloon to wash his hands,
where he was recognized by one or two of
| those present, who took to their heels from
/ fright Later be was met by a reporter,
| whom he informed that for seven weeks he
was an inmate of the Asylum, being suf-
| ferer from epileptic fits, and was released
on the 2Tth OF December. At present he is
making an effort to get into the Soldiers
Home at Dayton, o having been soldier
OF the late war. 1t IS supposed the deputies
were Mistaken on account of bis recent re-
lease from the Asylum, and the sim
ilarlty of names. Knapp's experience was
rather bitter and equally as strange, but he
does not blame the officers, as he realizes they
were honestly mistaken. He was anxious,
! however, that a correction be made. 1t is
needless TO add that William Gabb the
! right man, was afterward arrested and err
ceived at the Asylum.
