SHELBYvILLE, June 13.-tSpecial IA colt
was born to-day belonging TO Arch Evans. who
lives west of here, that is a freak of nature.
The colt has but two legs, and those behind.
There are no front legs nor any signs of any,
and not even any shoulder bones. The neck
commences where the ribs end. Ii has to be
held up to nurse. but will soon learn to balance
itself. Several hundred people have seen il
to-day, and hundreds more viii view it to-
morrow.
What you need is a medicine which is pure,
efficient, reliable. Such is Hoods Sarsaparlls.
1t possesses peculiar curative powers.

Since the above was put in type theory
has been presented to the writer which
seems plausible Gov HovEY, it appears,
has senatorial aspirations. So have other
republicans who are in Gov. HovEY's con-
fidence, and it is limited that they are en-
couraging him to continue in his course
of folly and madness in order to disgrace
him before the people, and render him an
utter impossibility in the senatorial race.
Certainly cleverer adaptation of means
to ends was never made. Atty. Gen.
MICHENER's name is mentioned in this
connection. He is a shrewd and unscru-
pulous politician, and entirely capable OF
resorting to such expedients to destroy a
Dolitical rival

great public interests is disgracetul. 1t is
too bad that there is no agency. under our
system, by which it can DE promptly pun
ished. It's results have already proved
very serious. Confusion and democrat
ization prevail in the blind and the deaf
and dumb institutions. The discipline is
relaxed, the old boards of trustees
naturally enough-are exercising but
perfunctory supervision of affairs; the
new boards are without authority, and
everything is. so to speak, at skies and
sevens. If the governor succeeds in his
efforts to stave off the Riley case until the
supreme court adjourns, this lamentable
condition of affairs will continue until
fall, and perhaps longer. The legislature,
at its last session, made liberal appropri-
atoms for additions and Improvements to
these institutions, the early completion of
which is urgently demanded. But these
appropriations cannot, of course, be utll-
lied until the deadlock is broken, and it
cannot be broken until HovEY comes to
his senses, or finds every expedient OF
delay and obstruction exhausted.
The trustees of the insane hospital have
entered upon their duties; have appointed
new superintendent and reorganized
the entire official staff at the hospital.
The governors action in attempting to
dispossess them will produce the same
condition of affairs at this institution that
prevails at the deaf and dumb and blind
institutions.
1t is difficult to account for Gov. Ho-
vEY's actions upon any theory consistent
with his sanity and integrity. 1t has
been suggested that his mind is affected,
and the suggestion is plausible. But if
he is crazy, there is certainly method in
his madness. If, on the other hand, he
is mentally responsible. he is either the
most crafty and INSCRIPTIONS demagogue
or the most obstinate and wrong-headed
individual that ever sat in the executive
chair of Indiana. From any point of
view, he is certainly most unlovely fig
ure to contemplate.

which he sounded the praises of the
club and gave it's members his hearty
good wishes. He said that Hoboken
had no social club of any prominence,
except the German Club, which was
exclusively for Germans. He was glad
to see such a large body of young men
gathered for sociability's sake. As the
membership increased the club would
certainly be an influential body.
Mayor Grassman, Recorder Melon
ough, Mr.. Seth Jacobs and several
others followed, and the time passed
away merrily.
Songs were well rendered by Messrs.
Smith and Conkling, and Mr.. Guide
