No Evidence Against Mrs. Osborne.

LONDON, Feb. 8.-Mrs. Florence Ethel
Osborne, who was arrested at Dover,
upon landing there from the Calais
steamer, charged, in connection with the
famous Osborne Hargreave's stolen
pearls case, with obtaining tho sum of
1850 from Messrs. Sphinx & Sons, jewel
ers of Bond street, the amount alleged
to have been paid to her for the stolen
jewelry, was brought up q prisoner in
the Guild hall court. The lord mayor
OF London, the Hon. David Evans, pre-
sided. Mrs. Osborne, who was deadly
pale, and In a fainting condition, was
escorted to a seat at the solicitors table,
After much delay the treasury depart
ment announced that it did not intend
to offer any evidence against Mrs. o.
borne, and the lord mayor, after recov-
ering from his astonishment, dismissed
the prisoner from custody.
She Was Rearrasted.
LONDON. Feb. 6.-Later in the day it
TRANSFERRED that Mrs. Osborne was rear
rested shortly after leaving the Guild
hall, and that she was taken in a cab
and was driven to Bow street police
court, where she was formally charged
with perjury. The prisoner was crying
bitterly when placed in the dock at
the famous police court, but sven in that
trying position she was supported by
her husband, Captain Osborne, who &C.
companied her to the Guild Hall and
into the prisoners dock at Bow street,
doing his utmost to console his suffering
wife. Mrs. Osborne was formally re-
manded for a week without bail,

POSTPONED
To October 18th Is the Hearing of
the Beaver Creek Ditch,

"In the matter of the proposed county
ditch improvement No. 627 will say that on
account of several interested parties not be-
ing notified, the hearing will be postponed
until October 18th" from President of the
Board of Commissioners Zierolf abruptly
terminated decidedly stormy scene at the
commissioners Office Monday just after din
ner.
The Beaver Creek ditch had been in course
of hearing all morning and both the commits
sioners and auditors Office were crowded
with excited and in many cases enraged
farmers.
Then when the words of the president cut
short the proceeding there was more than
one sigh of relief.
The proposed ditch is one of the argest
ever contemplated in the county. For quite
distance its conrse is near the Wood coun-
ty line. The land in that county therefore
receives as much benefit as the adjacent Hen
rycounty land. Notwithstanding this, Wood
county has refused to make the ditch joint
one-a refusal characteristic of that county.
On account of Woods obstinacy the estab-
llshment of the Beaver creek ditch is very
doubtful.
Could the apportlonment be made salts
factory all along the route, the construction
of this ditch would be beneficial to western
Henry county.

MUST REPORT
Or the Com mittee on Waterworks
Will be Discharged by the Mayor.

Other than routine business very little
work was done at the regular meeting of the
council Monday night.
The mayor as usual asked the chairman of
the committee on Waterworks and Electric
Light to make its report. No report was
forthcoming, whereupon the mayor admon-
ished the committee to get together by next
regular meeting and submit some kind of a
report. He said that in case this was not
done he would be under the necessity of dis
charging the committee and the question
would again revert to the council for solu-
tion.
Mr.. Pierrepont was present and siren
uously objected to the construction of a
man hole to the Clinton street sewer in
front of his residence. No action was taken
in the case.
On accent of complaint made by property
owners on Haly Avenue the sewer commit
tee was ordered to investigate catch basin
near the trunk sewer. 1t seems that the out
let of the catch basin in question was con-
structed before the Haly Avenue and Clinton
street sewers were built, and is only inches.
The inlet, since the construction of the two
sewers in question, has been increased to L
inches, thus leaving difference of four
inches and making an impossibility for the
8-inch outlet to dispose of the water con-
veyed by the 12-inch inlet. If such is the
condition it will be remedied at once.
Albert Bradley on behalf of the Electric
Light Company said that the contract ex.
pires the 21st and asked what should be his
course. He was instructed to continue un-
der the old contract until further notified.
The usual number of bills we're allowed.

A Broken Heart.

Mr.. and Mrs. Shoner and daughter Ted
were in Waterloo, Ind, Tuesday, attending
the funeral of Miss Della Shoner. twill be
remembered the deceased visited here short
ly since and made many friends among the
young people. Her marriage with Mr..
Edw. Mcdaniel was to have been solemn
ized month ago, but the sudden death by
accident of the prospective bridegroom
abruptly terminated such joyous thoughts.
Although inIgood health Miss Shoner's grief
was so great that she steadily pined away
and died-the victim of no disease but bro
ken heart. The death was one extremely sad
and the intelligence will be greeted by her
many young friends here with regret.

All We Want.

"Has the South side Sufficient water to
supply the town ?" was asked e. T. Barnes
recently.
Certainly" was his reply. "Let the
council select place at some point where
the vein of water is positively known to ex-
ist, then dig reservoir Of say 4ox4o feet
and the supply of frst-class water right
from the gravel will be much more than
enough to furnish Napoleon with all she
needs for an indefinite time. Add to this
the fact that the territory thereabouts is
clean, and we'll drained, then why need
the question of water supply In the most re-
mote way bother those seeking it,"

A Curse.

The destructive cigarette it seems has
come to stay. There is hardly one of our
young men not victim to the detestible
habit. They all cast of an aroma of the
vilest opium den and if cigarette smok ng is
INDUCED in it is only matter of time when
the opium habit will be resorted to.
Ifsaid young men must do something let
them drink whisky, benzine or rough on
rats but for the sake of self and friends give
the demoralizing, n-consuming and
physical destroying cigarette wide berth.
It is as fatal in its results as any scourge
known to medical science.

The Most Disgusting of Crimes At
tempted in Napoleon.

A week ago peddler named Brown struck
Napoleon and did fourishing business in
sort of cleanser. He rented rooms and
employed several small boys to paste labels
on his wares.
The boys tell tales too disgusting for repe.
tition and which lead to the fellows arrest.
Monday his case was heard before the
Mayor who thought the evidence sufficient
to give him fine and sentence in the Toledo
stoneyard which will aggregate 80 days.
He was taken to Toledo the same day.

Small householders and in fact all those
of small purses will scarcely receive the news
of further advance in the price Of hard
coal with equanimity. Anthracite coal is
now from $l.25 to $3.50 atom higher than it
was last year at this time, and additional
advances of % cents ton are ordered nearly
every month. It would not be at all surpris-
ing if the price reached $3.50, maybe 80
pefore winter fairly sets in. The only
chance the consumer has to get even with
the coal barons is to pray for mild winter,
and this unfortunately is not what the
weather prophets predict.
