General Logan is immensely delighted with a
letter he received a few days ago from a gentle
man in Little Rock, Ark. The writer, whose
name is True, began by saying that he has two
boys, aged respectively four and seven years.
The younger is a rampant Republican; the older
is an equally strong Democrat, to which party
his father also belongs One day last month
while the children were at Sunday school, the
superintendent, in the course of his remarks, re-
ferred to the Scriptural phrase, ''publicans and
sinners" Instantly the younger boy sprang to
his feet and shouted out '.Hurrah for Black
Jack Logan He's publican and SO am l." Mr.
True closed his letter by saying that he is an Of
fcer of the city government. and wonders if he
will in the future be classed as an Offensive
partisan" General Logan says there are few
incidents in his public career that afford him
more pleasure than the loyalty of his juvenile
Arkansas friend.

Quarrel Over Dog that May Result in

Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
VNcENNEs, June f4-This evening, just be-
fore dusk, three men became involved in a
quarrel at the starch factory, which will no
doubt before morning develop in a murder.
The parties were laboring men, and were sitting
around the starch works engaged in conversion.
John Stewart, young brick-layer, was caress-
i4g dog which belonged to Thomas Westfall,
another man of the group, when Stewards COM
panion George Cole, took hold of the Cog
in playful manner. Coles action angered
Westfal, the owner of the dog, who said that
the dog would bite him if he didn't let him
alone. Cole answered that he would kill the
dog in that case. Westfall became enraged at
Cole, and picked up a couple of bricks, and
ordered the two men off the premises. They
refused to go, and Westfall hurled the missiles
at the men. One of the bricks hit
Stewart on the left side Of the
skull, making a fatal wound, while Cole
escaped with broken nose and some bruises.
Stewart was taken home and his wound dressed.
DR.. Beard says there is not much hope of his
surviving many hours. Ten large pieces of skull
were taken out of the wound, and the victim is
suffering intense agony. Westfan escaped. but
the officers are on his track and he will no doubt
be captured before midnight The men were all
the worse for liquor.
