The when and the Air ships.

Prof. Arthur Barnard, inventor of the air
ship which is being successfully operated
at the Nashville centennial may bring his
aerial vessel to indianapolis and make sew
eral flights. A few days ago negotiations
for that purpose began, the Indianapolis
parties being the When Clothing Company
and John S. Thurman, a mechanical en-
gineer, who has Office in the When build
ing. The only obstacle in the way is that
the directors of the centennial may object
The When building affords a fine starting
place for the air ship. An interesting
feature Of the affair, il is claimed, is that
Mr. Thurman has a friend, Il. Framli a
scientific Hindoo engineer in Bombay who
has invented an air ship. Framji wrote a
short time ago asking Thurman to arrange
for an air ship race between him and the
American inventor. If this can be arranged
the contest between the air ships of the
Orient and the Occident will be held in In
dianapOliS.

In THE COURTS.
A Husband with "a Tomahawk.

Sarah Jane Rowland, who asks for di-
vorce from Edwin r. Rowland, must have
had a queer matrimonial experience with
the defendant. The plaintiff was married
to him in September 1896, and they sepa-
rated during the present month. The plant
if says her husband would go away from
home, remain for an extended period, and
on his return would scold and curse her.
Sometimes he threatened her. He would
display, she says. razor and occasionally
an Indian tomahawk. She interpreted this
these weapons on her. The plaintiff says
Rowland, since their marriage, has not con-
tributed to her support and she has had to
give him money His delight was to tell
her he cared nothing for her and only mar
ried her for her money. Mrs. Nowland
wants her maiden name, Sarah Jane Nor
ton, restored and asks to have the defend
ant restrained from molestinR her.

JOHNSON OFF TO PRISON
THE BANK wRECKER TAKEN TO CO.
LUMBUs, o., YESTERDAY.
If He Is a Good Prisoner He VIII Only
Serve Seven and one-HaIf Years
His Wife's Plans.

John F. Johnson, the Logansport ma
poleon of Finance left for the prison at
Columbus, O., yesterday afternoon in
charge of Deputy United States Marshal
Jerry Foley to serve cut the term of ten
years imposed upon him in the Federal
Court yesterday for looting the State Ma
tional Bank of Logansport. If Johnson is
good during this term in prison and in all
probability he win be. he will considerably
lessen his sentence The law for good time
deductions provides that in the first year
one month shall be taken off, in the second
two months, the third three months, the
fourth four months and the fifth and all
succeeding years five months. This would
bring Johnson's term down to about seven
and one-half years.
Johnson was escorted from the Jail at
noon by Deputy Marshal John Foley and
taken to the marshaFs office in the Federal
building. Here he was met by his wife and
together the two were taken into the mar
shals private room, where they remained
undisturbed until o'clock. This will be
the last time they will be together for near
ly ten years and whatever of scene there
was between the two it was unobserved
and when Mrs. Johnson left the building,
at 8 o'clock, there were no unnecessary
tears or lamentations.
Johnson announced his readiness to Mar
shall Kercheval to go, and the marshal, his
deputy and the prisoner walked to the sta
ton. Johnson was clean shaven and dressed
in modest dark blue suit and carried a
grip in his hand. The deputy also carried
grip and the trio looked like a trio of
drummers instead of prisoner and guards
When the station was reached the Big
Four train had not backed in yet and this
necesstated a wait of five or six minutes.
During this stay not half a dozen people
in the station knew that the bank wrecker
of whom they had read so much was in
their presence. During the wait Johnson
recognized Banker Joseph l. Irwin of Co
lumbus, Ind, and shook hands with him.
The two talked together for q couple of
minutes, bidding each other goodbye.
Nothing was said of the serious plight in
which Johnson had got himself
When the train backed in the station
Johnson and his guard boarded it after
bidding goodbye to the people who had ac-
companied them. the journey promising to
be an uneventful one.
After her last parting with her husband
Mrs. Johnson went to the home of the
friends she is visiting on North Pennsylva-
MIA street, where she will stay for a few
days. She will then return to Logansport
and live in her residence with her child
This home is the only thing reserved of the
Johnson possession in Loganspor.

consent TO the payment of the employees out

amount to about s., 500 month.
