Tod Sloan Wriles q Bit Of English
History In q Few Words.

Tod Sloan was presented to the
prince Of Wales, Thursday by Lord
William Beresford. Sloan was not
tlcstered in the least. Here's what
he says:
81 always heard the prince OF
Wales was great dresser, and |
paid some attention to his clothes.
| am not going around the world
singing Yankee Doodle" at every
quarter, you know, but you see
thousand better dressed men at the
Suburban in New York, every
spring, than the prince. He amt
really built to show off good togs,
bu; one thing III say for him that
| won't say for any other English
man, and that is, his clothes don't
look as if they hurt him. ."-Indi-

Cassidy Claims the County yet Owes
Him Six Hundred Dollars

The County Commissioners, who
have been going over ex- Sheriff Cas-
sidy's hooks with the county attor-
neys, report that he has overdrawn
his salary about ~, 400, and have
given him until the 18th Of this
month to make satisfactory settle
ment.
A representative for the INDE-
PENDENT saw Mr.. Cassidy Wednes-
day, and was informed by him that
instead Of having overdrawn his
salary to the amount of 50, 400 the
county still owes him 5000. He
says that the commissioners and
county attorneys, in "running" the
books. claim that he had been al
lowed fefs for the care of insane at
the rate of 81 a day, when he
should have been allowed no more
tnan for taking care of criminals.
This item alone accounts for nearly
81 900 of the 81, 400 claimed to be
overdrawn.
Mr.. Cassidy is not satisfied with
the nvestigation made by the at
torneys for the county, and after try
ing to get the Commissioners to
employ man 10 run the books that
would be acceptable TO both sides,
which they refused to do, he has
employed Atty's Milourn and Kean
to 60 over his books at his own ex-
pense. Mr.. as-idy is satisfied
that his books are all right, and the
matter will, undoubtedly, have to
be settled in the courts.
While the county commissioners
are in humor to investigate, would
it not be good idea to investigate
the records Of all the county Off
cials?-Huntingburg Independent.
The Commissioners would be
found without a clear legal record if
that was done-though probably the
county has not been injured by it
at all. But the milk-in- the e-co-c Goa
nut in Cassidy's case is the possi-
bility of good sized lawyer fee for
the county to pay-no matter which
side gets judgement finally, pro-
vlded the new county council can
be made subservient to the attor-
neys.

The Evansville Courier SAYS since
st. Louis has had the Nashville her
thirst for war vessels knows no
bounds and st. Louisans are clam
oring for the Oregon and all the rest
OF the fleet to come up the Missis-
sippi. The Globe Democrat says:
The Mississippi is still rising,
and there will be high water
Throughout the month. 1t is not
yet quite high enough to let the
Oregon sail up to St. Louis, but the
top figures of the rise have not been
reached. There is a probability in
deed, that the Oregon will no; come
to the Worlds Fair of 1903, but
several war vessels are likely to
visit us at that time, and England,
France, Germany and other nations
will probably be represented in the
naval display here on that occasion.
