Right you are Brother Russell

whole truth and acknowledge
that the luck of the farmers
dates from the Sth day Of
November, 1896. the day upon
which the people of this country
registered their disapproval of
the fiat money system that the
Mining Journal has been in the
habit of advocating. Tho
farmers have been paying of
their mortgages ever since.

CONVICTION. Ind. Jan. 22.-The ceie-
brated Shanks case is being revived, with
an interest that bids fair to rival the old
murder case. There has been filed in the
Office of the county clerk a new COM
plant for $4,000 damages by Miss Maggie
Keller. of Jackson township, who was one
of the defendants in the Clara Shanks muir
der case tried in Terre Haute about two
years ago. The case was taken to Vigo
county on change of venue from Parke.

are all well-known citizens of this county
and of Parke. They are George V. Thomas.

ward. The attorneys for the. plaintiff are
Lamb & Beasley. of Terre Hsute, and G.
NJ. AIcCabe, of this city. Nebeker & Simms
have entered their appearance to the ac-
ton for the defense. The cause will be
tried at the February term of the Fountain
Circuit Court The case is causing much
comment, almost as much interest being
shown as when Miss Keller was acquitted
of the murder.
The complaint sets forth that by reason
of false and malicious prosecution sensa-
tional accounts concerning the plaintiff as
defendant were published in newspapers all
over the country, and that she was thereby
made the object of morbid curiosity and
suffered great humiliation and disgrace;
that she was compelled to spend a large
sum of money in her defense, and was for
long time deprived of her liberty and made
to forego the amenities of her home; that
her fair name and reputation were de-
stroyed; that her health is permanently
impaired and broken down; that her life
and prospects arc blighted and ruined, and
that, therefore, she demands judgment for

MUNCIE, Ind, Jan. 22.-After two days
elaboration the jury tonight returned
verdict allowing Marion Collins sos dam
ages in the 5000 suit against Policeman
George Benadum. The costs in the case
will amount to nearly $40O more. There was
a family quarrel and the policeman shot
Collins in the arm while the man was run
ming away from the Benadums' house. 1t
was claimed by the policeman that the shot
was fired in the air and that the bullet
glanced from telegraph wire and struck
the man. In his instructions Judge Rooms
read the law to Muncie officers, instructing
them that there was no defense for arrest
ing man without a warrent. except on
the charge of larceny or murder The court
also said the man should be fined for shoot
ing in the corporate limits if the shot was
only for the purpose of frightening the man
wanted. One of the jurors stated that near
ly the whole amount would have been al
lowed had the case been tried in a court
out of Muncie, where the principals were
not known.

How DO Mice See In the Darks
New York Post.

/ have been much annoyed by mice lately
and oft in the Silly night. when slumber' S
chains have bound me-" / have walked to
hear them gnawing and running about in
the walls of the house in which live. This
has led me TO wonder how mice and rats
and other nocturnal creatures find their way
about within the walls of houses in the
dead of night, where. to human eyes, there
must be absolute darkness. Have scientific
men any theory regarding this matter, or
have they made any investigation into the
structure Of the eyes of nocturnal crea-
lures which would explain the ability of
these creatures to move about in perfect
darkness A few years ago a scientific man
in Europe stumbled unexpectedly q fancy
fact. never. l believe, until then suspected
by man, namely. that many substances be-
lieved to be opaque are more or less trans
lucent under certain conditions. Has it ever
occurred to anybody that the creatures
which move about in what is to our eyes
total darkness may possess a visual power,
by which substances entirely Opaque 10 hui
