DR.. ]. H. Matthews, 1ho for several years

A few weeks since we gave an account of
the trial of Jacob Eberle, charged with as
assault on his neIce, which consisted in kiss
Ing her against her wishes. AS stated at the
time he was fined SO and costs, amounting
to about $50, but the afterclap seems 70
bring more woe to Jacob than the original
blow, and is not vet ended. 1t seems in re.
talistion for being prosecuted he swOre out a
warrant for breach of the peace against Jacob
Knoetie, the husband, snd VIII Krlel. the
father of tee young bride. They were duly
trieo and acquitted, and right here was The
surprise III store for Jake, for the laws of the
great State Of'IndiAna make the plaintiff lia

Constables attempted to collect Being re-
fused payment yesterday, Jacob Seidel was
going TO sell his share in the grist mill, but
there was no bidder. The mill was
Just started about two months ago, ald
owned by Mr.. Eberle and his wife,
she having a three-dfths and he a
two fifths interest Today the same
constable went to the mill aud
presented delivery bond for
the signature of Jacob, so his share of the
mil could be taken, the now thoroughly en-
ragged Jacob took the bond and tore it ~
For this we hear charges are also preferreH
Later the dauntless constable entered the mill
and, seating himself on piece of machin-
cry, signi6ed his intention of ssizing it, but
be agsin demurred, and by placing his hand
on bis hip pocket gave the officer an invi-
tation TO Leave, which he accepted forth
with; for which, also. charges are preferred.
They will all be sifted through the Justice
mill. Taken all in all. this is great deal Of
trouble over a kiss and we sympathize with
Jacob, but hope that hereafter he will kiss
his own wife.
