A Busv Bee-Hive,

1t was pleasant and interesting sight, in
these days of almost universal complaint of
business depression, to watch the vast throngs
of people that have been constantly passing
through the doors of the Model Clothing Compa-
ny since Tuesday morning last 1t was on Tues
day that the much-talked-of sale of the large
stock of fine clothing bought of the assingee of
one of the largest clothing manufacturers of
Rochester N Y, began. The desire to get first
class, well-made and finely fitting suits or over
coats for men and boys, at less than one-h half
their value, brought such crowds to the store
that, with a largely increased force of statesmen,
they were unable to wait upon all their custom
ers.
This sale is now in progress, and is attracting
attention from all parts of the State Mail or
ders received daily, from all quarters of In
diana, ana are most carefully filled Many lines
of suits, overcoats, and pants are being sold at
less than half the first cost of manufacture

4 Nervous Shock that Caused Dr Collects
Hair to Turn White During Night.

ibid it ever occur to you that DR. Collett the
State Geologist, looks like the picture of Father
Timel" remarked gentleman during casual
conversation in the reading-room of a leading
hotel few days ago. 81 do not know of a
man, he continued, who has a more strikingly
venerable appearance. Over six feet in height,
with perfect physique, and hair and long
beard of snowy whiteness besides being
man of wonderful information,
he is the kind of a person that even
stra niger feels like going to for fatherly
advice, and there are many people who do con-
suit him upon almost everything that they do"
How old is he}" was asked
Fifty years old, was the reply "but he
looks vigorous seventy. His hair and beard be-
came white in a single night. Several years ago.
when he was living on his farm up along the
Wabash river, he came down to the railway sta
ton one day as the train which he intended to
board was starting off He ran and caught on
the rear, but was unable, from loss of breath,
to swing himself up to the step of the
car. He lost his foothod just as
the train, with increasing speed, started over
bridge and to loosen his grip until the other side
was reached would be fatal. He was dragged
across, but he held on, and his perilous position
being discovered, he drawn up to the plat
form of the car. The nervous shock was so
great that it caused his hair to turn perfectly
white in a few hours"

at New Albany. The messenger boy failed to
find Jewett at his Office and left the telegram at
his hotel He was out of the city at the time,
and did not receive the telegram until several
days afterward. The Supreme Court holds that
Jewetts residence at the hotel constituted the
clerk of the place his servant, with the same
authority to receive letters or kilograms ad-
dressed to him as if he were a servant in charge
of his private residence The Judgment of the
lower court awarding damages to the plaintiff is
therefore reversed.
