MERELY INDIANA SUMMER.
The Thermometers Best Mark Yester-
day Was 81.

Some irresponsible Thermometers in various
parts of the city brazenly announced yester-
Gay afternoon that the temperature was
anywhere between hundred and two hun
dred degrees in the shade. but the dispas-
sionate. unexcitable mercury at the Office of
the Weather Bureau refused to be tempted
TO break its record for honesty, and stopped
at the 91-degrees mark at $50 i'm the after
noon The day was warmer than any of
the preceding days. but, as clerk at the
weather Bureau said, What can you ex-
pect but warm weather in summer time?''
The truth Is" he continued, that the last
two or three weeks have been unusually cool
Tor this time of the year. This is true In
diana summer weather. and If you declare
that you've never been so hot in all your
life before. It shows that you have a bad
memory. The forecasts are for two or three
the climatic conditions.

working" THE TRUSTEES.


The printing supply houses have been SELL
iLg large bills of goods to township trustees
and many of them have sent out circulars
to the trustees stating that the new town.
ship law requires them TO purchase blanks
of all kinds for the use of justices of the
peace AS a result many of the trustees
have purchased blanks enough to last the
justices for years and many of the blanks
purchased have been such as the justices
would have no call for Blank mortgages,
deeds, leases and releases have been sold
in great quantities and other blanks of the
same chara cter. 1t is probable that the at
torney general would rule that trustees
would only have to purchase dockets unless
the justices were on salaries, when the
township would probably be expected 10
purchase the blanks necessary for use in
the office. In such cases summons, sub
poenas and blanks of like character would
be required and not the mortgages. deeds
and other blanks which are now being sold
all over the State.

Some time ago Auditor of State Hart sent
an inquiry to the Postoffice Department,

from ]. N. Tyner. assistant attorney gen.

that the only statute which might cover the

be sent to him on which he could pass. Tie
request will be complied with, and Auditor
Hart will send a specific case and all CORE

UNION TRUST COMPANY possesses all

thanks.
I'm concluding. ! wish TO say that the
promptness with which the Union Trust
Company has paid legacies and settled the
estate is especially commendatory of the

THE UNION TRUST COMPANY,

Monday afternoon the negro drtv- er of one of Brewster x Henslee' s public carriages left his team unat- tended at the Iron Mountain depot and the result was u runaway and smashup. During the negru's ab- sence the team became frightened at the passenger engine and dashed away at a wild speed. They ran straight sintn q telegraph pole near City Cotton Scales Na, I. and tore the front part of the costly vehicle into spinters. The harness was torn from the horses backs and lhey con tiuued their wild race. The damage done amounts to about $45 or $50.

 This morning Chief Phllpot and his day force succeeded in capturing a negro who has evaded the Georgla authorities for che past two years. Hls name is Frank B ack well and the crime for which he is wanted is abduction. Oyer two years ago Black well abducted young white girl from Gainesville, Ga. Several months after his crime he turned the unprotected child into the woods and left for other parts. The giel was soon found, but in half starv- ed condition.
 Owing to the excitement which now prevails in Georgia oyer recent lynehings in that State, it would be a very risky move for the officers to take this brute to hat place,
 Another badly wanted man was taken in here this morning. Chlef Philpot and Deputy Constable FranK Stewart are to be congratu- ated for the good work. A few days ago the Cbief received 8 telegram from the Shreveport, La author igies stating that a white man by tine name of T.

Their tedious duties came to an end this morning, when the sighted their man on Nair street and his arrest resulted.
