Burned to Death.

The relatives and friends of Ed. Hig.
gins were startled on last Saturday by
the arrival of telegram in this city an.
nouncing his death, at Anderson, Ind,
by fire.
Surmises of every nature were INDUCED
in by all who felt an interest in the sad
news. Excitement was intensified by a
Sensational notice in the Cincinnati Post,
of Saturday evening, in which foul play
and murder were freely mentioned. The
bare facts in this sad case are about as
follows:
Last Friday evening at late hour Ed.
Higgins, by Which name he was best
known, had retired to his room in the
house where he and his wife had been
living for some time. Being alone it is
supposed that he had sat down to read
before retiring for the night. Becoming
sleepy he had lain down on the bed not
undressing and leaving the gas burning.
Whether leak of gas occurred, or a
higher flame from increased pressure
after other jets had been turned off, on
this local jet, thereby causing such heat
in its vicinity as to ignite the wood, will
never be known. But the facts as told
at the coroner's inquest were that the
charred remains of Ed. Higgins were
found in his room, his death having
! ben caused by fire. The fire having
originated from accidental causes.
Joseph E. Higgings was we'll known,
and greatly respected in this community.
He was man of more than ordinary
vivacity, being the life of most any com
pany into which he was thrown. He
spent nearly all of his life in this county,
having only removed to Anderson, Ind. :,
a little over year ago. Eight years ago
he was united in marriage to Miss Mamie
Littler, daughter OF Harvey Littler, form.
-rly of this place. The widow in this
more than ordinarily sad bereavement
has the tender sympathy of the entire
community. His aged parents are also
spoken of in tenderest accents in the
loss of this their last boy.
The funeral took place last Monday
from the residence of Mr.. Lttler, the in
terment being in the Greenfield GENE
terry. The services at the house were
conducted by Rev. DR.. McSurely, of the
Presbyterian Church, of this place, o.
which church Ed. was member. The
services at the cemetery were conducted
by the Odd Fellows in very impressive
way. They also took part in the services
held at the home of Mr.. Littler. Th,
large gathering of people at both home
and cemetery attested to the high esteem
in which Ed. Higgins was held.

The Dog Days are supposed to be
past, yet Old Ignorance has another
spasm this week and fairly froths at the
mouth about the Gazette, filling the col
umns of the NEws-HERALD again with a
lot of abusive slush concerning this
paper. In the mass of idiotic diatribe
the only ray of intelligence is seen in
the fact that he has discovered an inter
esting subject to fret about.-Gazette.
We are glad to hear that dog days
are past It's an old saying that every
dog has his day, and old Gazzie has GER
tainly had hers. Her own admission
that it is past will be quite relief to
many worthy people who have again
and again been the victims of cowardly
assaults from the kennel she disgraces.
She may find satisfaction in proclaiming
herself an interesting subject. Heaven
preserve us from more of the breed !!
It's not what we want She's sheep
killer and shin bitter. She hasn't the
courage of a bull dog or the intelligence
of poodle. She snaps and sneaks. She
never stands to fight, hut yelps when
you hit her, and crawls to cover. Yes,
thanks to retributive Providence, her
dog days are over.

COntemptible Trickery.

The Democratic party is desperately
hard up for campaign thunder. They
have abandoned all attempt at argu-
ment, and are resorting to falsehood and
personal SANDER all along the line. An
instance of this is the article in the
Hillsboro Gazette under the head of
"Butchered to make Mckinley Holi.
day." A more outrageous perversion of
fact could not have been invented. The
bold assertion is made that Ohio day
was simply Mckinley holiday, and
that the soldiery were marched through
the hot sun to glorify Mckinley. When
Cleveland opened the Worlds Fair, it
was not denounced as political move
by Republicans, and when Gov. Altgeld,
of Illinois, and other Democratic gov.
ernors appeared by virtue of their of.
fee, upon various state days, the Re-
publican press did not denounce them
as political schemers. Yet, in every
case, the soldiers marched as far and
continued to march as long, and in no
case was there more genuine modesty
shown than by Gov. VIM. Mckinley
When the programme was laid out it
was not understood that the weather
would be so warm. And the march, 30
the papers say, would have been much
shortened, but for the Democratic colo.
mel of the l4th regiment Be that as it
may, Gov. Mckinley had no more to do
| with it than the editor of the Hillsboro
Gazette. Such miserable falsehoods, SC
! far. fetched as these only serve to show
the desperate condition of the Demo
cratic cause. The Republican party is
willing to go before the people in just
and fair argument on the merits of the
political issues. But the Democratic
party, from Larry and Bill Also dowr
to the rum soaked heelers, are trying tc
divert attention from their wild cal
revenue tariff intentions by an avail
anche of personal abuse as false as it is
villainous. In connection with this sol
dier question, we want to call the atten
ton OF the Gazette to the fact that there
was time when our soldiers were
"butchered," not for three hours, but
for four years by an armed array o.
traitors, everyone of whom was Dem
ocrat. We haven't heard that the Ga
zette objected then, or has ever since
found fault with that state of affairs.

Goodall building, Cincinnati, yesterday,
Tuesday, evening. He was engineer,
and in the absence of the proper at.
tendant, was called to work defective

he tried to get on to stop it, when the
speed suddenly increased, and he was
caught between the platform and the
ceiling, crushing all his ribs and driving
them through his lungs.

The Injured.

OF those injured in the railroad wreck
at Manteno, last week, We have learned
the following:
Miss Olive Patton, who had only some
minor bruises, returned last Friday.
She says on boarding the train they
were unable to get seats until they had
gone clear forward to the smoker. The
conductor afterwards told them of seats
in the rear coach, and they went back.
Miss Patton sat down ON the right
about the middle of the coach. Miss
Templin sat almost opposite on the left.
Mr.. Jackson got place farther to the
rear, with Misses Jackson and Bellison
on seats seat or two in front of him.
Miss Patton was 80 exhausted that she
Immediately fell sleep. The first she
knew of the accident was when she
found herself on her hands and knees
alongside the railroad in the midst of
the debris. She Immediately began
searching for her companions. She
found Miss Templin with spine injured
and other terrible hurts crying for water.
Somehow, she got the water for her,
but doesn't know how. She found the
others and did what she could for them,
except Mr.. Jackson. She never saw
him after he sat down in the car. She
learned from others that after the crash
he was found with his skull crushed,
and holding the hand of his niece, Miss
Jackson, who occupied the seat in front
him.
Miss Jackson was not so desperately
injured. Her shoulders was fearfully
crushed, but she has so far recovered
that she is expected home today.
Miss Belleson was most seriously in
jured OF all the survivors. Her skull
was broken, her face terribly lascerated,
all her lower teeth knocked out, both
collar bones broken, and sustained fear.
ful cuts about the back. Her condition
was considered hopeless. In spite of all
that could be done she screamed with
pain, until her skull was trehpined and
clot of blood removed, since which
time she has been improving, and may
recover. Miss Belleson is at the St.
Luke Hospital, in Chicago, under the
most skillful surgical care and best
medical treatment.
Miss Templin is at Kankakee, still un
able to walk, but improving rapidly.
In connection with this matter we
would add that Mr.. Powell, of New
Vienna, was horribly mangled. His legs
were cut off near the body. His arms
were severed, and one of them was
never found. His head was crushed
and it would be hard to conceive of q
human body more horribly butchered
Mr.. Jackson's injuries were not SC
frightful to look upon, although he was
badly disfgured.
Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Scholter, young
couple from Ripley, were both killed
Mrs. Scholter died in the crash. Mr.
Scholter was taken from the wreck, and
though he survived several days, and
pleaded piteously for his wife, no one
