1T LOOKS VERY SUSPICIOUS.
Fifteen Sacks Belonging to the indianapolis
POstotfice Found in Papsr-MiIl.

A transaction attended by some very suspi-
cious circumstances came to the knowledge of
Journal reporter yesterday and, though the
matter appears to affect the personal honesty
of some one connected with the Indianapolis
postof6ce. as far can be learned no action has
been taken upon it Several days ago Romus
r. Stuart, postofice inspector, made a hasty
visit to Brcokville, Franklin county aud upon
reaching that point he called upon r. D. Tenn
pleton and told him the object of his visit, say
in number. had been shipped to
the paper-mill at Brookville, and that
he had come down TO take possession of them.
Templeton accompanied him to the paper mill
and the sacks were found without difficulty, as
no attempt was made to conceal the fact that
they had been received Stuart Immediately
ment. and the proprietor Of the mill surrendered
them, saying as he did 50, ''If they yours,
take them, but paid my money for them"
Stuart then took them to the Brookviie office.
and there registered them for this city, where
thev belonged.
The proprietor OF the mill said that the paper
had been purchased OF a dealer in this city and
he had paid for the sacks at the time, weighing
the paper and the sacks in which it was pur-
w ere apparently new, or at least gave evidence
of having been used but little. 1t is presumed
that they sold with the paper from this
Office, and the dealer turned his purchase over
to the Brookvile party just as he received it
from the original seller. The fact that the
sacks were registered back to this office indi-
Gates that they originally went out from it.

Suit enjoin township ana supervisor from
interfering with and obstructng a, highway. 1t
was alleged that certain of the defendants had
petitloned the board of commissioners to chang o
the location of the highway their own lands.
Such proceedings were had that the change was
ordered. 1t is charged that the order void.
After the landowners had dedicated their land
to the public use and the public authorities had
accepted it the dedication. even assuming the
proceedings to have been invalid as a statutory
change. could not be revoked by this proceeding
If landowners whose lands are affected and the
public authorities fit to recognize the pro-
ceedings valid, SO far as they affect the lands
of the owners, strangers cannot complain. 1t is
not ground for Injunction to show that after
such dedication the supervisor had called or
would call out the road labor of the district.
The plaintiffs having stood by until the defend
ants expended their money cannot now invoke
equity interference.

collars J.-When an entry made by q county
board, after the time set for the hearing of the
petition and report of the viewers a drain,
shows that the report having been duly read.
and no person objecting thereto. and the board
being satisfied that the ditch is necessary etc
and that the same had been duly advertised,
according to law, it is therefore adjudged, etc,
such finding sufficiently shows that the required
statutory notice had been given. In such case
the Supreme Court will assume that the posted
notices were in all respects in compliance with
the statute, no PROOF TO tue contrary. z While
Section IL OF the drainage act contemplates a
separate letting of the work allotted to each
landowner. yet the letting to person is not
more than irregularity. and appellant with
knowledge that the work was being done, and
stood silently by until after the work was ac-
cepted by the board, cannot overthrow tho con-
tract in collateral proceeding. 3. The board
may accept such work at called session 4

A Chantcr on Dress.

The necessity of thick dressing that follows
upon living i'll half warmed houses is seldom
regarded as an injury, but is one which tells
most on 4 woman when she needs every point
in her favor. Few women reach 80 or s.
without spinal strain, from having children,
or from accident or over e~xertion in some
shape. Nerve ailments and "workiue on
ones nerves draw directly ON the spinal
chord and exhaust it, one marked effect of
which is that compression and weight of
clothing become intolerable. A spirited,
active, healthy girl feels good in her slug

But when the drafts of life havo told o.

haps, will be the unbcarable weight of
clothes, of bedding and boot heels, while n
close lifting glove is enough to cause faint
ness. This comes Of no fine lady airs, but is
a well recognized effect of that spinal dis,
order whose outcome is locomotor ataxis and
