INDIAN NAM ES.
London Newspapers Find Their Spelling
Matter OF Difficulty

Matter of Difficulty.
The London newspapers occasion
considerable mirth to their Indian con-
temporaries by the spelling of Indian
words 1t appears that, in reference
to the native princes and noblemcn
who were present at the opening Of
the Imperial institute, we tried to
strike out on an original line, but were
only able to spell "Gackwar" in seven
different ways, and "IIhownugger" in
four. Indian papers, it seems, are not
wholly sue cessful. We still occasionally
see Puma" and "Poona," "llindu" and
"Ilindoo," "Dacoit" and "Dakait," and
SO on, according to the taste and fancy
of the speller.
In n supplement to the bombay Gov
ernment Gazette we now have re-
viscd alphabetical list of Madras place
names, which is ITO be strictly adhered

WAS 1T CONTEMPT
Pathetic Case of a Former Dickinson
County Man,

Many readers Of the REFLECTOR
will rem' mbrr Frank ID. Waugh who
WAS IN the lumber business at Enter
prise for u long time, removing thence
to Winfield. The Capital gives a
pathetic history Of the trouble he is now
In and because of which he has flied an
appeal case 10 the supreme court. Mr..
Waugh was convicted this week OF
contempt Of court, fined $50 aud costs,
S24 90, and sente lced 10 jail until they
were paid.
lie WAS recently the plaintiff in a
garnishment suit against building
company at Winfield, iu which one OF
the banks of that city was interested d.
The case went againt Waugh aud he
wrote letter to Judge A. NJ. jackson
Of the Thirteenth district, which the
latter claimed was malicious, insult
ing aud detamatory." In this letter
waugh said:
"ldid not think IL possible that our
overlook the Interests Of poor man
and ride over him rOughsbod and de.
eide ~ favor Of h corporation just
because they pleaded that they must
have the money to open the bank with
The loss of this 81 ,225 2S will ruin me;
| am at an age that can not recover
from IL. Why must be compelled at
great cost and long process of years
10 70 to the supreme court IT, get
back To where | can even get hesringi
Now, judge, for Gods sake, IL there
hot some way that this can be avoided
and can get hearing in your court,
and | can get my money released ~
that | can open up and do bust
ness and not be- ruinedY ask this in
the name of justice; ask IL In the
name OF my creditors, and lastly
though not least ask 1t for my little
ones dependent upon me"
At the trial Of the contempt case
Waush's testimony was very pathetic.
1t haS all been fled Oh record In the
supreme court and the following is the
explanation Of the letter: The night |
wrote the letter my little daughters,
one three and the other eight years old
came to bid me good night and jumped
upon my lap and kissed me and went
to bed, and thought, "Can it be pos
sible that there is 30 much injustice
that they can take away from these
children's mouths this money and open
the bank with itp" It was too much
for me and l set about writing to ouI
just judge that he must give me som,
relief.
