RCsHvILLE, Ind, May 24.-The residence
of James Dawson on Yes Hilligoss' farm, six
miles southwest of this place. burned Satur-
day night with all its contents. Two OF Mr..
DaWson's children perished in the flames.
Dawson was awakened by a cracking noise,
and found his house on fire. He and his
wife occupied the lower room, while his two
daughters were sleeping in a room on the
second floor. On running to their room he
found them in q fiery furnace, unable to
leave. With that bravery and love father
has for a child he rushed in and extricated
both of them-the oldest, aged thirteen, was
literally burned to a crisp the flesh ready to
drop from the bones, while the youngest,
six years of age, seemingly, was not so
severely burned. The first-named lived un-
til yesterday morning, suffering the pain no
anOdyne has power to relieve. while the
younger died to-day. Mr. and Mrs Dawson
each received very serious injuries.

A Mysterious Poisoner.

LIMA, o., May 24.-The Grand Jury, which
was discharged Saturday, investigated case
which has been of vital interest among the
farmers living near Conner, this county. For
a number OF years past valuable horses be-
longing to some of the wealthy farmers of
that locality have from time to time died of,
from the effects Of some kind of poison given
them by an unknown person at night.
Among the farmers who have suffered loss of
animals at the hands of the poison fiend are
William Bowers, w. j. Ward and w. Will
Jams Theil loss ranges from S400 to 81 200
each, according 70 the number of animals
lost. No less than twenty valuable pieces of
horsehesh have died from poisoning up to
the present time, and although vigilSnt, the
farmers have been pOWerless TO stay the
hand of the pOisoner or find ont who he is.
His form has been seen after dark after he
fed his stuff TO the animals, and he has been
shot at several times but no one has seen his
face. He mixes his preparation with oats,
and it is a liquid not unpleasant to the ami
mails as they eat it readily. Suspicion
pointed TO a certain person who bears a bad
reputation, as ne swOre vengeance on one of
the heaviest losers seven or eight years ago
for some wrong done, but no has been
found against him. Reuben Harpster was
the last victim, az he had horse poisoned
couple Of weeks ago. His horse was valued
AZ 500.

LESSEPS ON ROUSSEAU.
The Great Frenchman Speaks Lightly of
the Adverse Report.

PARIS, May 23.-M. de Lesseps, being in
terviewed on the subject of NJ. Rousseau's
adverse report on the Panama Canal, said
that NJ. Rousseau naturally took pessimis-
tic view, "but," added NJ. de Lesseps, 1.-THE
worst that even NJ. Rousseau can say is that
great difficulties have yet 10 be overcome in
the cutting, and that the cutting was con-
tracted for below what the work will actually
cost" Commenting on this, M. de Lesseps
said: "The contractors will have to suffer if
what NJ. Rousseau says be true, and not the
company. / adhere to my belief that the
canal will be completed in 1889, and am
ready to furnish the Government with all
the information and documents in my
possession which confirm me in my impress
SION"
NJ. De Lesseps pronounces the whole Rous-
seau incident a thing of but little impor
tance. The canal company's engineers held
a consultation day for the purpose of pre-
pairing statement in rebuttal of NJ. Rous-
seau's report.
NJ. De Lesseps says that if the Government
refuses him permission to issue lottery bonds
for the purpose OF raising sufficient money TO
complete the Panama Canal he will get funds
by other means and elsewhere than in
France.

some imprudent conduct in the store, she
went to the store window. There she saw
her husband offer a bottle to one of the
women. Becoming enraged, Mrs. Yakey
entered the store and seized the bot
tie and threw it away. Mr.. Ysk5y
was so embarrassed as well as mortified that
be endeavored to persuade his wife to leave
the store. Failing in this, he then took her
home, where she refused to remain, but went
to the home of her sister. Mrs. Homer Law,
and stayed until next morning. Mr.. Yakey
then went to a drug store and purchased
eight grains of morphine, stating that his
wife and daughter were indisposed. This
was done at IL o'clock on Thursday night.
He returned home, and in an upper room
took the fatal dose and placed himself on
bed from which he never arose again, dying
shortly after.

he proceeded a half mile further to the
house of another neighbor, told them of his
wife's sickness, and left for home on
the run. Reaching his gate, Mr.. Wills fell

and there is still a chance for her recovery.
Mr.. Wills is about thirty years old, and has
been married four or five years. Among the
roots which they dug and brought to the
house were some from a species of wild hem
Ieck (conium maculatum) and it was this
which caused Mr.. Wills death.

WASHINGTON, May pa large number OF
petitions have been received of late urging
upon the Judiciary Committees of the Sen
ate and House, the necessity of providing
Federal code of procedure. Bills for this
object are now before these committees, pro
viding for the appointment of the Federal
Code Commission, and extending an invita-
ton to each State and Territory to appoint
one or more representatives to advise with
this commission. 1t is hoped to make the
Federal Code acceptable, not only to Con-
gress, but the Legislatures OF all the States
and Territories, aud to secure its voluntary
adoption by each of them. One uniform
practice will prevail in all the Federal, State
and Territorial Courts.
Justice Miller, of the Supreme Court,
writing of the present situation for the
American Law Review, of st. Louis, says:
''The Federal Judges and the practitioners
in the Federal Courts are left to grope their
way in this mingling of Federal law with
that of thirty-eight States of the Union,
and the enactments of Legislatures of eight
Territories and the District of Columbia
The condition of Justices of the Supreme
Court of the United States, who are bound to
take Judicial notice OF all these different
laws, and are expected to ascertain what
they are, can well be imagined"
