Overproduction of Hogs.-We heard
a prominent Indiana breeder say not
long ago that hog cholera last season
was a blessing in disguise. If all
those hogs had lived, and the usual
proportion Of them Bred" said he,
you could walk from one end of the
country to the other on the backs of
hogs next fall" He lost several thou
sand dollars through the disease. but
he believes his loss from deprecated
values would have been about the
same had there been no disease in
the country. While the hog rightly
managed may be made one of the
farmers most certain sources of profit,
thee is no other stock that will in
crease SO fast, and with which he is
SO likely to become oversupplied.

IT Is SETTLED.
Hope School Disagreement Decided
BY the Attorney General.

The splitin regard to school matters
at Hope has been under consideration
by the attorney general, and that in.
dividual has just rendered his opinion
upon the matter in the following let.
ter to the old board. As told in the
REFLECTOR at the time, ii was decided
by citizens of Hope to establish a
graded school, and it was thought
necessary to elect new school board,
which was done. The old board re-
fused to retire, and sought an opinion
from the authorities. The opinion
was written under date Of August 20,
aud is as follows:
"From the manual enclosed it APP
pears that the school in question was
substantially graded school prior to
the action recently taken for the pur-
pose of establishing the new school,
Whether any legal action had pre-
viously been taken for the purpose
you do not say, but ! infer there had
been no such action. But whether
the action of the meeting lately held
for establishing a graded school was
legal or not, their action could not
supersede nor displace the old school
district board nor take from them the
possession of the property under the
control of said board nor demand
their books. The old school district
could not be abolished by such action.
Its school board seems to have been
regularly elected and qualified, and
unless they see fit to resign they must
continue in the performance of their
legal duties for the district Just the
same as if no action had been taken
for the establishment of a separate
graded school,"
We hope this will end the contro-
versy as no good can come to the
schools through disagreement among
the patrons.

ESCAPED FROM JAIL.
0rville Mitchell Is Helped Out Of
the Bastile.

Sheriff Robson has more griefs than
anybody. Upon arising Wednesday
he found that Orville Mitchell had
escaped from custody. Young Mitchell
was arrested June 26th at Enterprise,
being implicated with the Morgan
gang of harness thieves and promised
to testify against them at the coming
term of court. He was confined in
the northwest room, which was de-
signed solely for insane persons and
women, for the purpose of keeping
him away from Morgan, who occu-
pies cell in the cage. The windows
were first removed from the frame,
the bottom frame broken and side
pried over. Then some one from the
top of the tool shed, under the win
dow on the outside, dug the brick
away from the end of the bars until
the boy could crawl out.
Jas. McNaspy says be heard noise
about o'clock but thought nothing
Of it as the rats have been making
much noise recently. 1t is probable
that the escape occurred at this time
and that the prisoner boarded the
$3.50 U. P. train and is many miles
away. kilograms have been sent to
points in all directions and it is vet
probably that he may be recaptured.
The sheriff's residence is considerable
distance away and no noise was heard.
County Attorney Kane says that
the prisoners absence will cut no
figure in the prosecution Of Morgan,
as strong case is made without this
testimony.
Sheriff Robson telegraphed to June
for the bloodhounds, and persons
have been kept away from the Jail so
that they may have fair trial.

ing Missils

As thethreshers on the Barnes farm
four miles northeast of the city, wer,
moving for resetting, the engine ex
ploded, seriously if not fatally injur
ing VIM. Smoke, the engineer, and in
tlicting painful bruises upon D. Gotten
berger, Tom Jones and Ed. Brooks.
The outfit was the property of d.
Coffenberger the engine being one Of
the first traction engines brought to
the county, Mr.. Cotfenberger only
having purchased it this summer. 1t
had been repaired with new flues, new
fire box and other repairs, and was
tested at that time with l20 pounds
Of steam. The explosion occurred
under the fire box and to the front,
blowing the crate md door in many
pieces and hundreds of feet. On the
engineers box stood VIM. Smoke,
guiding. Attached were the coal
wagon and separator. Mr.. Shook was
blown over the coal wagon and thirty
feet away, and was picked up nncon-
scious. carried into the house and a
doctor hastily summoned.
DR.. Ketchersid dressed the injured
man and found all his teeth gone but
one, lip cut, big cash over the left
eye, body and arms severely scalded
and bruised, and one leg broken be-
low the knee. There is only small
part of the back that did not suffer
from the escaping steam. There is
great hopes of saving his life, but the
outcome is in doubt.
D. Cotfenberger was walking beside
the separator and received several
bruises on the right side Of his face
from the flying coal.
Ed Brooks was riding on top of the
separator, threw himself back and
was but slightly scalded on the legs.
Tom Jones also received some slight
bruises from flying coal.
James Stiles was walking beside the
engine and was stunned for a moment
by the shock, but Immediately re-
covered and started to find Shook, be-
ing the first to reach him.
The front door of the engine was
blown a hundred feet, barely missing
the house, while the SCOT covered the
trees and side Of the house.
Pieces of the CRATE and door were
hurled with terrific force in many d.
rections, and it is almost miracle
that more persons were not seriously
injured or killed outright.
The engine carried 100 pounds of
steam at the time of the catastrophe.
