A Too Wen Protected CITY.

INDIANAPOLIS, March l2.-Indianap-
oils has a double police force, two police
headquarters, and nobody can tell how
they will secure pay. The board organ
lied under the bill passed by the legisla.
ture met this morning and organized a
police force. The patrolmen of the new
board were instructed to avoid a clash
with the old force. During the day a
conference was held by the attorneys of
the new board and the mayor and coun-
Gil, at which it was decided that the new
board should file a complaint for posses
sion before Judge TAYLOR as well as the
Metropolitan commissioners.
The city will at once file an answer al
leging the bill is unconstitutional because
the legislature cannot fill offices by APP
pointmcnt and because the bills have
never been signed by the speaker of the
house and lieutenant governor after their
passage as required by the constitution.
1t will take three weeks to decide the
question Probably similar action will be
taken to test the constitutionality of the
other bills.

The Cinnamon Held for Trial.

MILWAUKEE, March 12.-The trial of
the Cinnamon CHARGED with e~nticing little
girls to their dens was concluded this
morning, after five children. whose ages
ranged from s to Is years, had been ex-
amined. The charges were borne out by
the story of each witness, and the heath
ems were held in S., 1000 bail each for trial
at the next term of court. They were
escorted back to jail under a guard of a
large detail of police, and followed by a
crowd Of several hundred persons, who
yelled and ieered at them, but no violence
was attempted.
Beyond the smashing Of windows of a
dozen laundries last highland noisy and
threatening gatherings in the streets,
there has been nothing approaching vio-
lence. There are not more than ninety
five Cinnamon in the city and many of
them have left town. There wa no dem

An Editor Murdered.

CHARLESTON, s. c., March I2.-Capt.
f. w. Dawson. editor of the Neus and
Courier. and agent of the Associated
Press in this city, was murdered this after
oon by T. B. McDow. a physician of this
city. 1t seems that Mellow, who is a
married man and father of a family, be-
came too familiar with a Swiss maid in
Capt Dawson's family, aud Capt. Dawson
visited Mellow at his office to demonstrate
with him. Words and blows followed and
the encounter ended in Mellow shooting
Capt. Dawson through the heart. The
murderer then locked up his Office and
went out Three hours later he surren-
dered himself to the police authorities and
the body of the murdered man was found
lying in McDow's office. The murder
causes intense excitement and there is talk
of lynching.
The murderer has the reputation Of
being a rake. To night the city is wrapped
in mourning and the murder is the sub
lect of discussion in every quarter of the
town. The murderer was hurried to jail
as he had surrendered himself and for the
present is safe from lynching. The entire
community is incensed.

Outrages by Robbers.

PrTTsBURG. March IL. = Mcclellan
town district, twelve miles from Union
town, in Fayette county, was terrorized
last night by a party of armed masked
robbers who entered a number of houses,
and after torturing the inmates until they
gave up whatever money in their possess
sion ransacked the houses from cellar to
garnet. The first house entered was that
OF a farmer named Anderson. The rob-
bers demanded Anderson's money and
upon protesting that he had none placed
hot Goals to his feet and compelled him to
give them $50. all the money he had.
The mex place visited was Farmer Lilly's,
a short distance from Anderson's. The
old man said he had no money and the
desperadoes tied him in bed and set fire
to it. Lilly begged for mercy and finally
gave the robbers $3.50. He was then un-
bound and the fire extingulshed.
The gang is believed to be the same
that robbed Farmer Core of franklin
township Saturday of $500. Residents
of bayette county are greatly excited, and
armed searching parties will be organized
at once to capture the robbers.

biologists say that our entire county is

coveries have enhanced interest il this

the oil is pronounced similar in every re-

Indeed, there seems TO be enough of the

thereby foster home industries and build
