A Kind of a Time.

There was a profuse scattering of blood, cuti-
Gle, hair, and female apparel in Squire Thomp-
sons court yesterday. The parties from whom 1t
was removed are Mrs. Margaret Gaunt and Mrs
Mcclure, OF Ann street. The ladies INDUCED in
a 'scrap" at the family residences, yesterday
evening, the result OF the mill being that Mrs.
Mcclure, who Is a delicate little woman, was
"knocked out" 10y her adversary. They had in
obliged in windy war on tho preceding AFTER
noon, and the quarrel was resumed yesterday
morning while the two were engaged in sweep
ing off their back stoops. After q preliminary
skirmish at long range in the course of which
they threw sticks, stones and other missiles az
each other across the Intervening fence, Mrs.
Mcclure dared the other over in her yard Mrs
Gaunt accepted the challenge, and, arming her
self with piece of plank, jumped over the fence
and sailed into her rival in true North OF Ireland
style. Mr.. Mcclure filed charges against his
wife's assalant, but, upon his own plea for LENT
ency, she was only fined small sum. A double
handful Of hair and cutice from Mrs. McClure's
person was introduced in evidence.

THE EVENING CAMPFIRE.

Installation of Observation-Disclosures by Gov
ernor Porter, General Van Der voort and
Others-Other Exercises.
The public campfire at the Park Theater at
night was largely attended, and the occasion
was highly enjoyable. The exercises were re-
ceived with enthusiastic appreciation, and the
best of feeling prevailed, from the opening with
the singing OF "John Browns Body" until
the closing with praise God from Whom
All Blessings Flow" The songs of the camp
were sung by members of the G. A. R., led by
John Kensell, of Fort Wayne, and all present
fully entered into the spirit of the occasion. The
stage was most appropriately arranged, and on
it were seated number of prominent persons,
among others being Governor Porter, General
Paul Van Der WORT, the commander-in-chief of
the @. A. r., and General NJ. D. Manson.
In a neat speech of ten minutes, Governor
Porter said that after looking overthe audience,
now eighteen years after the war, he
did not wonder at the enthusiasm
that had been manifested. Last year
there were forty-three posts of the Grand Army
of the Republic in Indiana and now there are
1856. Last year there were 1000 members and
now there are over 5000. 1t seems, he said,
that with each year the soldiers have an in
creased interest In the cause for which they
fought. We meet men every day in the
public assemblies aud In the street, but
there is acquaintance which gives
the knowledge OF men and strengthens

THE ROYALTON MYSTERY.
Milton Foreman's Explanation for Not Max
ing Known the Fact that His Mothers
Life Was Insured.

Coroner Maxwell is still busily engaged in his
investigation of the Foreman murder mystery,
and yesterday examined several witnesses,
among them Milton and john Foreman, sons of
the elder woman. John started for Illinois with
his family, Tuesday, and was overtaken at
stiesville, Hendricks county, by Constable
Plummer and brought back to the city on a
mandatory subpoena He was perfectly willing
to come, and learned with great surprise that
his brother Milton had a policy on their
mothers life. From Constable Plummer he
heard of this for the first time. The fact
develops now that Milton Foreman has not been
on friendly terms with the other members of the
family for some time, and had not
seen his mother, sister or brother for one
year preceding the murder. Coroner Maxwell
declines to make public the evidence adduced
yesterday. but released both the FOremans Mil
ton returning to Colfax, his home, and John
leaving i'll the evening to rejoin his family at
Stilesville, and continue their journey to Hi.
nois. Milton directed to forward to the
coroner, and without delay, the graveyard in
surance policy on his mothers life, and prom
ised that it should be in DR.. Maxwell's hands to-
day. He gave as his reason for not making
known the fact that he held a policy on his
mothers life that the knowledge of it would
break her heart. He induced Mrs. A. d. Moore
of Roy alton, to JOIN with him in keeping up the
policy soon after taking it out. as the premiums
were heavier than he felt inclined to pay Mrs
Moore Is, therefore, equally interested with Mil
ton in seeing the policy paid. Nothing has been

to answer for the crime

The libel suit of James E. Heller against the
Sentinel is still on before Judge pro tenn. Hord
and jury in the Circuit Court. The testimony
yesterday was as damaging to the defense as
that introduced the day before. Judge Heller
was on the stand nearly all afternoon, and testl-
fled that Donahey, the person who furnished the
Sentinel with the stories ON which the action fol-
libel is based, sent word to him by an attorney
that he had the Conformation" and would pub
lish it unless he received $4,000 for Withholding
it. Judge Heller testified further that he in.
formed the Sentinel of Donahey's offers before
the matter was published.

eers will do all tho breaking there, as
they do rCw on the passenger trains.
The difference between the automatic

pressure. aud in the new. the air is
used to keep the brake away from the
wheel. Uuder each car is a cylinder,
which is charged with air, aud IL any
opening is made to allow it to escape.
heavy springs force the brake against
the wheels. The opening is made in
two ways-one by the valves on the

reach them, aud by the train separating
