RESERVATIONS GALoRE.-The In
diana Soldiers Monument bids fair
To be delayed in its completion by
the designations Of those having the
work in charge. McMonnaies, the
designer selected for the groups to
surround it, got mad because he
was not permitted to dictate the
character Of the groups, he wanting
to substitute Naval group instead
of one illustrating Peace, pro-
vided by the law governing the
erection of the Monument,-and so
he resigned. Langsdale, President
Of the Monument commission, did
not like the proposed cutting of Of
salaries, and so he resigned. w.
H. English, who is rich enough not
to care for the salary, got mad at
the criticisms Of some jealous as
pirants for his place, and now he
has resigned. With all these
changes at one time, it is doubtful
if this big extravaganza will be as
we'll completed as it should Ike for
the money the taxpayers pay for il.
RIDICULOUS To all
who are well acquainted with DR..
a. J. Thomas. Supt. Of the Evans
vile Insane Hospital, the report Of
Senator Boyd to the Indiana Senate
accusing the DR.. with "oyer indul-
gence in intoxicating liquors." as
an excuse for a recommendation for
his removal, will be viewed as the
meanest kind Of low down PARTISAN
ship. His acquaintance all know
the DR.. TO be entirely guiltless of
such a charge. While it is prob
able he may sometimes indulge in
social glass, no man can truth
fully accuse him Of drunkenness or
incapacity. The reports Of each of
the State Insane hospitals show that
under his kind and judicious skill.
full treatment, larger proportion OF
patients have been restored at the
southern hospital than at either Of
the others. 1t is burning shame
for Senators to try and blacken the
character OF good man just be-
cause his place is wanted for some
friend. Turn him out, if you must
have the ils,-but do not USE
lessly injure his lifelong and hard
earned reputation.

ANOTHER MAINE MURDER.

The latest Maine murder occurred on
sunday, December q, at a camp near
Millinoeket station on the Bangor and
Aroostook Railroad. The victims were
Spsniard named Enacio Csmillio, who
owned the camp, and Charles Langley.
a Frenchmsn, who was temporarily at
the camp. The perpetrators, who were
promptly arrested, were Joe Gabriel and
Newall Gabriel. two Indians belonging
at Old Town, who were in the woods on
hunting expedition. Ii Is thought
from the evidence that can be gathered
that the Spsniard was killed by the
Indians, who then set the camp afire,
and Langley, who was drunk in his
bunk, was burned 10 death. The posi-
ton of the bodies in the ruins corrob-
crates this idea. A large quantity Of
liquor came into the camp the night be-
fore, and all the parties were considers
bly, under its influence. The Indians are
described as peacesble when sober, but
fiends incarnate when drunk. They do
not talk freely as yet.
The latest stories told by the two
prisoners make IL appear that Joe
Gabriel did the job while his brother
Newall was outside the camp. There
was drunken row, and there IL no
doubt that all the parties were drunk at
the time.
