Death of Ex-Mayor White, of Madison.
Special to the indianapolis journal.
MADISON, March 3.-M1 Alex. White. the
well-known carpenter and lumber merchant, died
at his residence in this city at l o'clock last
night, after an illness of one week. Mr. White
came to this city years ago from Richmond, Va.
He was for many years exclusively engaged in
the carpentering business and. in that line he
was very successful building some of the most
substantial business houses and private resi-
dences in the city. OF late years he has been
engaged in the lumber business extensively.
Mr.. White was a good Republican, but not a
bitter one, believing that others had a right to
their opinions. He was nominated by the Re
publioans for mayor in 1874, and although the
city was then, and had been for years, Demo
cratic stronghold he was elected to that office
after hotly contested canvass, and served until
1876

New CASTLE, March 3.-One of the boldest,
most brutal, and shocking outrages ever per-
petrated in eastern Indiana occurred on Satur
day afternoon, at o'clock, a short distance west
of Middletown, this county. Mrs. Trout, a
highly respected married lady, wife of q
farmer living a mile from Middletown, was
walking to town with basket of eggs, coming
along the track of the c., St L. & P. railway.
When about half way between her
home and town she was met
by Clint Mclaughlin, trifing
village loafer, who, without ceremony, seized
the basket of eggs, and struck Mrs Trout a
heavy blow with his fist, knocking her down.
The woman screamed, whereupon Mclaughlin
grabbed her by the throat and told her that he
was going to outrage and then kill her. He at
once proceeded to carry out the first part of the
threat, in which act he was overtaken by a
freight train from the west The head of Mrs.
Trout was so close to the railroad track that her
bonnet was cut by wheel of the engine The
train was stopped as quickly as possible and on
being backed to the scene, the train men dragged
Mclaughlin away and assisted Mrs Trout to
arise, placing both in the caboose, and taking
them to Middletown, where Mclaughlin was
given over to the officers, who brought him here
seriously injured, and FRUSTRATED by the fearful
outrage Mclaughlin has long had the name of
being a hard character, and years ago, when at
the county asylum, was horsewhipped for
knocking a woman down.

carefully Guarded against. The love

being the root of all evil, but all peo-
