An Ola Crime Recalled.


The Jeffersonyille Times says that among the
many eccentric and singular beings who con-
fined in the Southern prison is William Hamlin.
For twenty-si years he has been a convict, and
sixteen years Of that time has been passed in one
CELL He presents a weird and unprepossessing
appearance. Huge masses of matted hair fall
over his shoulders and long snow white beard
adorns his face. All day long he stan&crsyith his
bony fngers between the bars. looking vacantly
at the opposite wall, and sometimes for months
not deigning to speak to anyone. At other times
he will repeat long chapters from the Biole with
surprising accuracy. The crime for which Ham
lin is serving life sentence is one of the most
fendish in the annals of the State. In 1860, he,
with two brothers, Peter and Saul Bennett. we're
employed by wealthy farmer living in Jeffer-
son county near Madison. The farmers family
consisted of himself his wife and Eve little chill
dren. He was reported to be quite

and the farmer and his family sat before hugo
log fire, which blazed cheerily on the hearth
Hamlin and the two BENEFITS entered bearing
an ak in his hand. With one blow Hamlin
dashed out the farmers brains. His Mortified
wife was then killed in a similar manner. The
little children screamed agonizingly, and chung
to the bodies of their murdered parents, calling
for that protection which could no longer be
given. The inhuman brutes frenzied by the
work they had done, rained blow after blow
upon the little children, killing all Of them The
murderers then searched the house for plumber
but found only $40 in the farmers pocket. To
complete their horrible nights work, the bodies
were piled together, the house set on fire and
burned to the ground, unnoticed by any of the
neighbors, owing to Its isolated position. Hamlin
and the BENEFITS we're arrested on suspicion,
and one of the latter made full confession. At
the trial Hamlin defended himself. and attempt

Northern Indiana Normal School.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal
VALPARAISO. Aug. 9.-The Normal school at
this place has just closed it's thirteen year. For
the past two weeks commencement has been in
full blast The graduating performances in the
various departments have been unusually inter-
esting The number graduating in the various
departments is as follows: Law, seventeen; elo-
cution and oratory, twenty three; musical, four
teen; scientific, seventy six; classic, fifteen; to-
tal one hundred and forty five. This is perhaps
the largest number completing a course during
the history of the institution. The enrolment
here during the past year has reached over two
thousand. There are representatives from nearly
all the States and Territories. Many OF these
are teachers seeking greater efficiency, others
asprants of that honorable calling, while others
still searching for knowledge on account of
the pleasure in the search and the certain joy in
the possession.
The Northern Indiana Normal is the largest
school of the kind In the United States. This
fact speaks for itself. Fifteen OF the county
school superintendents of Indiana have received
their education here. State Superintendent
John w. Holcombe was teacher here prior TO
his election, and said recently in speech to the
students here: 81 believe this institution is do
ing more good for the cause of education than
all other institutions of the kind in the State"
During the present summer vacation Of three
weeks substantial improvements will be made to
tl6 cOIlego buildings. Lu0 entlf0 STRUCTURE Will
be overhauled, recitation rooms modified. and
the various divisions changed and enlarged.
This has become necessity from the large at
