ANDERSON, Ind, Sept 10.--Mr. and Mrs.
Baxter, of Fort Wayne, are in this city,
effecting the organization of an Order of
Lincoln, for the collection and preservation
of all that is of interest of the martyred
President. Here they found Louis WEIGH
man, the roommate of John Surratt at the
Surratt home in Washington, who was the
Nations principal witness and whose testi-
mony sent Mrs. Surratt, Payne and
others to the galows. He is liv-
ing very quiet life, and but seldom speaks

principal witness and the only one that
was of great Importance he has been lost
sight of altogether by those handling Lin
coins history. He is at present a college
professor serving after the trial as a repor-
ter in New York and other Eastern cities.
The Order of Lincoln will be instituted in
every city of Importance in the land, says
Mr.. Baxter, and the object will be to collect

each State separate museum of its own.

The Shakers Idea Of Medicine

Nowadays when a man goes TO his doc
tor he is usually told that he has some un-
heard-of disease with long name, and
when he leaves the office he does not know
whether it is st. Vitus dance or consump-
ton that is gradually undermining Lis
health.
1t is therefore refreshing to talk with the
Shakers for their very simplicity COM
.nands confidence and respect. and we have
the further satisfaction of knowing that
they have devoted themselves 20 the study
of disease and its cure for more .han a
hundred years.

CLAY CITY, Ind, Sept. 10.-Further de-
velopments in the murder case of Robert
r. Taylor. the wealthy citizen of Bloom
field, report of which was published yes
terday, of most startling character.
The coroner has just returned from the
home of Grief HILL who lived on Mr.. Tay-
lor's farm, few miles south of this city.
He brings the information that Mrs. Ella
Fulk, a daughter of HILL has confessed.
She states that her father and Taylor were
in an upstairs room settling up their bus
mess affairs, when a dispute arose and
Taylor called him vile names. Instantly
her father seized shotgun and killed Tay-
lor on the spot. In support of the woman's
confession Coroner Clifford sawed blood
stained board from the floor in the room
where the murder was committed. The
murder occurred about 2 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon, but the body was not removed
from the house until after nightfall. 1t
then taken by a lonely road through
Eel river bottom to the Brunswick bridge.
There the murderer tied the body in the
buggy, turned the horse in the direction of
this city and fed from the scene. The MUIR
derer is thought to be in hiding in the river
bottoms Bloodhounds were secured and
placed on the trail this evening. Hills cap
ture is almost certain and it will require
much watchfulness on the part of the OFF,
GERS to prevent trouble when he is taken
into custody. Hill has always borne a
good reputation in this vicinity. but since
the murder it has developed that he is an
ex-moonshiner from North Carolina, COM
ing to this State year ago to avoid ar
rest.
A dispatch from Worthington says the
funeral of R. r. Taylor, who muir
dered near Clay City on Tuesday, took
place there to-day from the Nj. Z. Church.
