MESS, THIS
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois at
Variance.
BOUNDARY LINES IN DISPUTE
Two Hundred Thousand Of Indianas
Population May Belong to Ohio.

The Worlds Fair Site Said to BE in In
diana Surveyors Brlbed by the Early
Traders Twelve Thousand square Miles
in the Territory in Question-A A Compli-
cation That is Likely to Cause Much
Trouble.
WASHINGTON, Nov 9.-Word is re-
ceived here that the report Of Professor
Mendenhall, chief Of the surveying
party sent out by the National govern
ment to locate the boundary line be-
tween Ohio and Indiana, is ready for
submission. This boundary line has
been in dispute for some time
The facts found by the surveyors are
as heretofore alleged, that the true line,
as declared when Ohio was organized
into State, commences IL miles west
of the present boundary line at the
north and runs directly south to the
present line between Ohio and Indiana,
thus making strip 200 miles long and
of an average width Of six miles, 200
square miles-to which the State of
Ohio lays claim.
The strip described includes the cities
of Fort Wayne, Rchmond, and Union
City, and has population altogether of
about 200 900.
| An inquiry into the causes that led to
| the juggling of these boundary lines is
closes that at the time Ohio was made a
| State there were post traders located at
| Richmond at Fort Wayne whose trade
with the Indians was very profitable
If the line had been run correctly
| these posts would have been taken in to
the new State of Ohio and the occupa.
tion of these traders would have been
gone The post traders it is said,
bribed the survey party which located
the line, and Richmond and Fort Wayne
were left on the Indiana side.
The question is a very important and
complicated one, for should Ohio's
claims on Indiana be enforced, Indiana
would, on the same grounds, have cause
of action against Illinois.
The organic act of Ohio fixes the west
ern boundary by line drawn due north
from the mouth of the Great Miami
The Ohio officials claim that line nortl
would run into Indiana, taking the citie,
of Richmond, Butler, Union City and
strip of territory from few inches a.
the Ohio River to ~ miles at the north
ern boundary, throwing half of Steuber
County into Ohio and about one third o.
Allen County.
1t is also claimed that the boundar.
line between Illinois and Indiana is to-
far east, and that when it is correc ted
large part of Chicago, including tn
Worlds Fair site, will be in Indiana.
Last winter Governor Campbell
brought the matter of the disputed
boundary before the Ohio Legislature
and resolution was adopted askini
that the United States Coast and Geo
detic Survey run the line over.

NEW AND FATAL DISEASE.


Asiatic Black Tongue Makes its Appear
nnce la Indiana.
FRANKFORT, Ind, Nov. "a new and
dreadfully fatal disease has made its
appearance near Mirklin, Ind.
A few days ago one Of the children in
the family Of John Wyman was attacked
with peculiar disease that baHled all
medical skill and in As hours the child
was dead One after the other the chill
dren out of a family of four contracted
the disease and died. Two days ago
the mother, Mrs Wyman, died. The
father and husband is left a raving
maniac
The description of the disease is al e
most too dreadful to realize For the
first few hours the patient is afii ctel
with a mild fever, the tongue then be-
comes inhamed and assumes huge pro-
portions The organ then turns very
black in color, decomposition sets in, and
in the paroxysms of the most intense
sufferings death ensues.
Physicians say the disease is known to
them only as it is described in medical
books and that it's home is in Asia,
where among the natives 1t is as fatal
as cholera. They call it Asatic black
tongue and confess their utter inability
to combat its deadly work. Later news
from the affected district says seven new
cases are reported beginning with the
same symptoms.

GLAvE's ALASKA EXPEDITION.


Back After sovon Years of Exploration
Valuable Discoveries.
WASHINGTON, Nov. "a. J. Glave,
late of Stanley's exploring expedition,
who has been in Alaska for the last seven
years, has arrived at Victoria, b. O..
after attempting to discover the head
waters of Alaska River. He located the
source about l 10 miles northeast of Mt. St.
Elias and has, by his expedition, demon
strated the fact that the whole of the
country east of Schwatka's field of ex-
plorations, is available for pack horses
He himself took and brought back
four horses in perfect condition Here
tofore nothing but manual labo has
been employed in the country trayersed.
He has discovered and taken photo
graphic views OF the whole country ly-
ing between North Yukon and the base
of the st. Elias Alps, and finds it more
suitable for traffic than was ever im-
agined.
Glave is coming direct to Washington
to ask the United States government for
an appropriation to enable him to open
up trails next season. Mr.. Glave's 8
party was composed of himself and a
friend named Dalton. 1t was the small
est party that has ever traversed tho
region. They took 400 photographs aud
report having discovered an enormously
rich copper mine.

can step on the handle and have it turn
with him at a most unfortunate time.
She gets the broomstick entangled with
her husbands legs, which makes him
swear.
She tries to lift two bushel basket of
crockery, and finding she can't do it,
tells the carman she is not so strong as
she used to be, and then contents herself
with carrying down an old wooden
chair which has just been brought up
stairs to be used in removing things
from the walls, and which has to be
found and brought up again by some one
else. But it is in loading that she
makes herself conspicuous. She brings
out ten inch looking glass and wants
it laid On the bottom of the cart, and
she don't want anything else to go on
until she can get her workbasket, She
thinks the stove and bedroom set should
ride together, and is quite confident that

| the cart as it does it will never again be
fit to be seen. The carman steps on her,
and walks over her, and is swearing all
the while down in his throat, but she
| don't mind him.
She knows that that load isn't put on
as it ought to be, and that there is room
for lots of things yet She brings on a
clock, and a length of damaged stove
pipe, and a pair of old boots covered with
mildew, and a small basket of empty
| spice boxes, and an old gaiter, and the
back Of a wOrnout vest, and wants them
all put on the cart. She says there is
| plenty of room, and the things will
| come useful some time, and they don't
take up any room anyway; and, just as
| the cart is moving away, she rushes
after il with secondhand peach can
stuffed with debris, which she success
fully introduces into the load, and then
comes back in triumph. And while the
carman is gone she is just as busy as
she can be telling the woman next door
that she can put just three times as
much stuff on that cart as is on it, and
if she has got to move again she be-
lieves she'll give right up and die

HOW A WOMAN MOVES.
SELECTIONS FROM THE WRITINGS
OF THE DANBURY NEWS MAN.

A Woman Prepares Herself for the Aw-

Beartrending.
copyrighted by Lee g. Shepard, Boston, and
published by special arrangement with them.l
A woman's idea of moving is to wear
a pair of odd shoes, her husbands linen
duster, a damaged hoops5irt and a last
years jockey turned hindside before.
Thus formidably attired, with a pocket
full of screws, nails and picture cords
and a Timber bladed case knife in one
hand and a broom in the other, she is
prepared to believe that something is
about to be done The first move she
makes is at the parlor carpet. She takes
up two tacks in about fifteen minutes
puts them in pint saucer, and sets the
saucer in the middle Of the floor where
it win not be in the way Then she
goes into the hall to tell the carman to
be careful in bringing down the large
rocking chair, as her mother gave it to
her
After that she darts into the kitchen,
stops suddenly in the middle of the room,
and says, Now, what is it was going
to dor" and then races up stairs with a
great hustle on suddenly remembering
that pair of vases were not packed
away with the bedding But they were
packed away, and when she discovers
the fact she comes back, saying that she
has so much to do she don't really know
what she is about Afterward she draws
out the glassware to put it in a barrel,
and after packing away a couple Of tum-
blers and salt cellar takes down her
dresses and examines them with as
much care as if she was going to a ball
and the carriage was already at the door.
In the midst of this survey she sud
denly thinks of something else and rushes
off to attend to it, the caseknife in one
hand, the broom in the other. When
the stove is taken down, she is there
when the bureau is being lifted she is

up on the best chair to take down a

Tim Harrington WIN Make Matters Warm
for William O'Brien.


DUBLIN, Nov 9. Timothy Harrington,
in an interview last night, said that he
had just come into the possession of tho
original copies Of Mr. Parnelrs date Of
the late leaders, parlcyiugs with tho
representatives Of the Mccarthy faction
at Boulogue These, Mr.. Harrington
said he would certainly publish within
twenty -four hours
He added that the documents would
prove very unpleasant reading for Mr..
O'Brien and his Liberal friends, and
would confirm fully his own aud Mr..
Redmond's statements Of what had oc-
CURED at Boulogne, which they had
made from memory
Mr.. O'Brien, Mr.. Harrington declared,
had wilfully suppressed letters which
would vindicate Mr.. Parnells motives
and explain his position.
The originals would show that Mr..
Parnell's object was to obtain such as
surance from the Liberal leaders as
would render it impossible for them to
backslide from Home Rule. Mr.. O'Brien
really represented the Liberals in the
conference, and informed them by letter
from time to time of the progress Of his
treatings with Mr. Parnell
The final failure Of the conference was
not due to the obstinacy Of Mr. Parnell,
as had been represented, but to the re-
fusal Of Mr.. Gladstone and his coll
leagues to give any assurance OF their
adherence to former pledges. Mr.. Glad
