1t VIII be seen that, with out Two
exceptions, the majorities in this State
were Away very small and these ex-
ceptions simply prove the rule. They
were in 1864, during the war, when
Democracy" in Indiana was synony-
nous with "Copperheadism.,' Itwas
that year that the Democratic party,
in its National platform, declared the
war to be a failure) and in 1872, when
the bottom dropped out, so to speak.
OF course as the State increases in
population these majoritics become
relatively smaller, and there is little
wonder that politics are SO hot in In
diana when you look back as far as
1852 and find the greatest majority,
with the exceptions named, to be 5000
votes, and the last little over 5000
out of total of about 100000.

The Cramming process in Education is

The faculty will remain, as 1t has been for

THE BIRMINGHAM TRAGEDY.
Antecedents of Halves, the Man Accused
of Numbering His Wife and Children.

Antecedents of Halves, the Man Accused
of Numbering His Wife and Children.
NEVADA, No, Dec. 13.-The news of the
Halves tragedy at Birmingham, Ala, and
the further fatalities inflicted upon the
mob that undertook to hang him, have
created considerable interest among the
old settlers of the county because only a
few years ago Halves lived at Deerfield, in
this county, about ten miles west of here;
and during his residence there kept a drug
store and was arrested upon one occasio on
for selling liquor i'm violation of the State
laws and fined quite heavily in the Circuit
Court. A short time after this he went
from here to Alabama and nothing more
was heard of him until the murder at
Birmingham.
Halves was originally from Owensboro.
Kv., and married Emma Throckmorton.
The Throckmortons were an old and
wealthy family and connected with many
other old families. Collin Throckmorton's
wife was a daughter of Zsby Ward, of
Louisville, who built the celebrated Gsult
House of that city, and a sister of Mat
Ward, who killed Prof. Noble A. Butler,
the author of Buffers English grammar.
Governor Throckmorton, of Texas, was a
cousin of Collins. So it will be seen the
family was well connected. Emma
woman and shortly after her marriage to
Halves on one occasion ran up shop bill
of 8, 900 in a single day.

RuMoRs ABOUT STANLEY.
Feafs Entertained That the Great EK.

Fears Entertained That the Great EK.
plorer Has Been Captured.
LONDON, Dec. 15.-In letter received at
Suakim from Osman Drgna, and which is
supposed to have contained the announces
ment that Emin Pasha and q white
traveller (presumbly Stanley had fallen
into the hands of the Mahdi, were enclosed
copies of dispatch from Dervish leader
at Lado to Khalifa Pasha, giving the
date of Emin Pasha's surrender as Octo-
Der 10 and a letter to Emin Pasha from
the Khedive which the latter handed to
Henry NJ. Stanley when ne was at Cairo.
1t is rumored that Osman Digna in his
letter expressed a willingness to surren-
der Emin Pasha and his white companion
provided Egypt would agree to abandon
Suakim. II this proposal is not accepted
it is believed that both captives will be
killed.
In the House Of Commons this after
noon Mr.. Smith the Government leader,
replying to Mr.. Wilfrid Lawson, said that
SO far as was known to the Governments
the letter written by Osman Digna an
nounced the surrender OF Emin Pasha and
q white traveller. The Government had no
means of knowing whether those allega-
tons were we'll founded. Along with his
letter Osman Digna sent several Snider
cartridges which, he alleged. were taken
from the white traveller. The Zanzibaris
in Stanley's expedition were armed with
Snider rifles, but there were none in the
possession of the Dervishes.
LITTLE DOUBT OF THE CAPTURE
General Grenfell, the commander at
Suakim, recognized the letter which
Osman Digna had inclosed as the original
one which he had drafted for the Khedive.
Thus Stanley's capture is virtually placed
beyond doubt.
There can be scarcely any doubt that
the white traveller mentioned as surrender
ing with Emin Bey is Stanley, as every
thing thus far tends to confirm this opin-
ion. The balance of opinion among Afri-
can experts has, for some time past, ac-
cepted the theory that Stanley had been
working toward Emin and, if not actually
with him, was near him. Intense interest
is felt here in the fate of the intrepid ex-
plorer and no one for a moment believes
that the Government will allow his life to
be sacrificed in order to hold Suakim.
The Emin Relief Expedition Committee
are doubtful of the genuineness of the
Osman Digna letter. They suggest that
the khedive's letter may be copy stolen
at Cairo, but they think it more likely that
Stanley sent on runners to Emin with let
tiers and these runners were captured.
Osman Digna's letter was a reply to
Major Rundle's request of last August for
news of Emin Pasha. The letter asserts
that the Mahdi has conquered the whole Of
the equatorial provinces One white man
escaped.
Refugees ut Handoub confirm the state.

OFFICIAL REPORTS.
The Kansas State Treasurer and Audito
Will Mako Some Useful Recommends

The Kansas State Treasurer and Auditor
Will Mako Some Useful Recommends
tions.
TOPEKA, Kan, Dec. 14.-Most of the
State officers in their reports make recon.
mendations which will undoubtedly be
brought to the attention of the Legislature
this winter. State Treasurer Hamilton
refers to the necessity of an act which
would be general in its nature, al
lowing counties, townships, school
districts, boards of education and others
who have bonds i'm the Treasurer's office,
and held by the different funds, the priv
ilege OF paying them at any time they may
have funds in the treasury to do so. He
also calls attention to the fact that SSI, 900
of the State bonds will fall due July L,
1889 and states that q small increase in
the sinking fund levy will take care Of
this amount.
Auditor Mccarthy announces that some
sections of the tax laws seem to have been
misconstrued by the assessors. Section
SIS provides ''that the several township and
city assessors shall meet at the
county seat in their respective coun-
I ties on the first Monday of March in
each year, and then agree upon an
equal basis of valuation of such property
as they may be called upon to assess. II
shall be the duty of the county clerk of
each county to notify said township and
city assessors at least ten days previously
of the date Of each meeting" The assess.
ors in many cases construe this action to
mean that they may agree upon basis Of
assessment very much less than the value
Of the property in money. In some
cases they agree upon a basis of 40
per cent. of the real value, in other
cases they make the per cent. SO or 80.
He suggests that the Legislature empower
the Governor to appoint some suitable per-
son to assess and make returns of property
in all cases where the county authorities
fail of their duty.

KILLED THE CASHIER.
A California Bank Cashier Shot for Refus-
Ing to Cash u Check.

Ing to Cash Check.
SAN BERNARDINo Cal, Dec. 1.-Two
strangers entered the San Bernardino Ma
tional Bank yesterday morning and one Of
them presented a check and asked that it
be cashed. E. H. Morse, the cashier, told
him he would have to be identified, and
some words followed, when the stranger
drew a revolver and shot Morse through
the body. The latter returned the fire
and put two balls into his assailant. Six or
seven shots were fired in all. The two
strangers ran away but were arrested and
lodged in Jail. 1t is believed that the
men intended to commit robbery. Cashier
Morse died half an hour after the shoot
ing. The man who did the shooting
gave the name of john Cakes, but refused
to talk. 1t is said that a third man who
has not yet been arrested was seen trying
the side door of the bank while the shoot
ing was going on. Cakes was shot in the
arm, ear and back, but it is believed his
wounds are not serious. John Cakes who
did the shooting had been working on the
railroad here about a month. His COM
panion was deputy sheriff from Arizona,
but there is no reason to believe that the lat
ter had any thing to do with the shooting.
Cakes went into the bank yesterday and
asked to have q check cashed and was told
he would have to be identified. When he
presented the check this morning Cashier
Morse told him he would not cash it until
he was properly identified, when Cakes
said: '1'll make you," and fired imme-
diately. Morse was shot through the
lungs. Cakes wound is not serious. When
he was arrested letters were found upon
him showing that he recently had been in
an insane asylum i'm Nevada. Physicians
who examined him pronounced him insane
at the time of the shooting.

The Seventh Finished Him.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Dec. IA. Land
seidel, a steel worker of Allegheny, and
his wife had not been living happily to-
gether and yesterday morning quarreled at
breakfast. and Mrs. Landseidel left the
table and went to the cellar for wood.
She was followed by her husband who
fired two shots at her, one of them slightly
wounding her in the right arm. He then
placed the revolver to his head and blew
his brains out. Landseidel was promi-
nently identified with the Anarchists Of
this section and had been married seven
times, all of his wives being still alive.
The present Mrs. Landseidei was a niece
of the late Arch Abbot Winner of St. Vim.
