two looked on in great glee, they having
been excused from the ordeal by reason
OF blooming scars they bore and evil
IDENTIFY of recent date. The average
tramp hates vaccination almost as bad
as he hates water or work and now that
the news has been spread abroad con-
corning the diligence of our county ply
sician, IL is safe to say that the hobos
OF the unvaccinated variety will give
Charlottesville a wide berth.-Crawfords

The Big Four railroad company will
be the defendant named In a ten-thou-
sand-dollar damage suit that is now in
the process of preparation. Mrs. Frank
Booze is the plaintiff and the suit grows
out Of the fatal accident which befell
her husband last June while in the
employ of the railroad. The deceased
was riding backward on the pile-driver
car when his head struck the overhead
timbers at the covered bridge across the
Wabash river a short distance west OF
COvington. The injuries were such that
death resulted in a few hours. The
widow thinks that the accident would
have been averted but for criminal neg
ligence on the part of the company and
accordingly sues for 100000 the amount
as limited by law.-Crawfordsville Argus

The fate Of LOttie Raymond of Elk
hart. whose attempt at suicide Saturday
night is the direct result of leading a
life OF immortality, should be warming
10 the thousands of women and young
girls who with full knowledge of the
direful results of unchastity are plung-
ing headlOng into the abysmal depths
of disgrace and eventual perdition
Goshen has them-every town is infested
10 certain extent with this class Of
girls and women, and who is 10 blame?
The libeTtine who first ruins the char
acter of a young girl, goes on in So
clety, holding his head above reproach
while the girl whose honor he has de-
spoiled goes down TO her grave with no
kind word 10 induce her 10 desst in
her course. 1t Is the way of the world.
When will these wrongs be righted?-
Goshen Democrat.

1t would be before the line would be
built through Terre Haute.-Terre Haute

Efforts TO unravel the gigantic rail-
road swindle are being vigorously prose
cuted and many points have been gath
cred that add much to the peculiar ma
chinations in which the bold scheme for
swindling Englishmen out of 100000 was
successfully carried through. Among
the sensational disclosures is the fact
that the alleged Indiana coal and rail-
road company was Incorporated in this
state April /, 1881. There is a record Of
the Incorporation at the secretary Of
states office in indianapolis on the
record book, but the articles of incor-
poration are not to be found There had
been no inquiry for the articles since
they were filed until Mr. Harry D. Emer-
son Of Cincinnati asked for them few
days ago Then it was discovered that
the papers had been stolen from the
vaults, evidently by the swindlers who
placed them there, with the intention Of
covering up their tracks.-Terre Haute
Express.
