accidents Due to the Ice-s.orm.

For the first time this season the telegraph
service here was interrupted by the weather.
Early yesterday morning the lines along both
the Vandalia and I. s. ST. L. railroads sue
cumbed to the heavy load of eleet, and were
broken i'm several places between here and
GreencastIe Had it not been Sunday the run
ming of trains would have been seriously inter

were on they able TO make their runs,
though little delayed. Linemen were sent
out last evening" and all the lines will be in re-
pair By this morning.
During the forenoon the ambulances were
called to take several persons home who had
been slightly hurt By falling, but no serious ac-
cidents were reported. Hacks were IN great de-
mapd all day, Citizens who own conyeyances
of their own were unable to use them on ac-
count of their horses being unable to stand on
the icy streets Quite a number of horses that
were taken out without being rough shod fell,
and were seriously injured. Late Saturday
night Chris Hickman, superintendent OF the
water-works company, started TO drive to fire,
and his valuable gray mare was badly hurt by
falling.

He caused q sensation In Memphis.

A young man who gave his name as w. W.
Prouty, and Indianapolis as his home, has been
creating sensation in Memphis, Tenn. Several
months ago he appeared in that city and spent
money layishly. He announced that he owned
a big ranch out West, and had stock in several
banks, besides being largely interested in sever
al gold and silver mines. He opened real es-
tate Office. and in short time got on familiar
terms with all the agents in that line Hewas
introduced on Change and to the banks. and
had large mum her of houses placed in his
hands for rent. At the end of the month, it is
charged. he failed to turn over the rents besides
securing small loans from nearly all his friends.
On the 18th of this month he did
not appear at his Office. and some checks he had
given his creditors on banks were found to be
worthless. An investigation showed that dur
ing the short time he was in Memphis he col
lected about 81. 900 which his creditors would
like to have. He has not been heard of since he
left Memphis. 1t is reported that his departure
partly due to leading merchant of that city,
who armed with a revolver, looked for him on
account of an interference in the merchants
domestic affairs. No such name as Prouty APP
pears in the Indianapolis city directory and it ia
probable that the gay young man does not belong
here. II he does he Is travelling under

HOUSEKEEPING INTERESTS.
Indiana Supplies One-Half the Fastest
PAGERS Produced in This Country.


When the first com pination sales were held
here last year, very few breeders and dealers
thought the experiment worth trying. They
were skeptical beyond any possibility of being
convinced that the enterprise could ever be
made a success. 1t, however, not only met the
anticipations of the managers. but has revived
an interest in Indiana horses. Last year Jay
Voss, in his SALE" said horse-fancier. last
night, Offered 167 head only eight of which
came from Kentucky. The rest with
few exceptions coming from Michi.
gan and Ohio, were Indiana horses. On
an average these animals brought better prices
than were realized at the Woodard s. Hsrbi-
son sale held last week They had Kentucky
farms in this State Voss's horses brought
average price of $3.50, or 1900 in all. Wood
ard g HARRISON for their Kentucky stock
got only an average of $245 per head, or $40, 900
for the 200 sold. The sale of Indiana horses at
the Lackey & Harmony sale In Cambridge
City the other day, brought the average of $40
on It's head. They sold PAGERS for higher
prices than were ever offered before. showing

Result OF a sohOoIboy,s Dependency.

The investigation By the coroner into the
death Of young Harry Heath, Saturday night, so
far as it has gone, indicates that the shooting
was not accidental, but that the boy committed
suicide in fit of childish dependency, or anger.
During last week he had considerable trouble in
school, and depressed in spirits because
some members Of the class outranked him. In
stead of the pistol being purchased for him, as
at first reported, it seems that he purchased it
himself. Friday, and afterwards said in the
presence of some of his sehoolmates that he in
tended to kill himself. Another thing indicat-
ine that the shooting was not accidental is that
while he had gone 10 his room, ostensibly for
the purpose OF bathing, he had made prepare
tions for the bath when the shot was fired The
case is creating considerable comment on ae-
eount of the age of the boy
