Auburn, Ind, Dec. ,,Steubeneounty

county In the state having a spot OF
land upon which vegetation absolutely
refuses to grow, while the surrounding
soil 10 apparently productive. This
place is located about mile south OF

and 10 the subject of strange tale
told by many old settlers, In a grove
at the head Of the lake is circle OF
earth about 15 feet in diameter, OH
which no vegetation. will grow. The
cause assigned by tradition for this is
that this grove was the torture ground
Of the Bawbeese Indians and that II
was in this circle that the stake was set
up. It fs believed that the ashes of 80
many murdered human beings has rem
dered the place accursed and hence
this dearth Of vegetation.

Placed In the Cemetery While
lie Lives.
The Great Granite Block Is One Of the
Largest In the United
Ststes.

Doylestown, o., Dec. 6.-Father Lin
desmith, who is still living and resides
here, has exercised the good judgment
of placing his monument in the Catho-
lie cemetery at Dungannon while he
yet lives. This handsome and massive
monument. was recently placed in the
cemetery by Cleveland parties and 1t
is supposed to be the largest granite
block in the county. II was shipped
to Kensington by rail and then con-
veyed to the cemetery at Dungannon
on a vehicle constructed for the pur-
pose and It, required twenty-four
horses to pull the monument on level
ground and when hill was reached
the appliance known as blocks and
tackle had to be used 1t took three
weeks to move the huge granite block
from Kensington to Dungannon, q
distance of four miles. The lettering
on the monument IL made on a bronze
plate which is firmly set in the granite.
Father Lindesmith was born and rear
ed near Dungannon and since his young
manhood he has been doing church
work as - priest in the Catholic
denomination. He is a learned and a
pious man. He Is rich in knowledge
and pure in heart.

USED TO LIVE IN CANAL DOVER

Canton, Dec. 4, 1900.
Editor News Democrat: / was much
interested in the article published in
the News Democrat, Monday Novem-
Der 26, headed Mrs. Quantril in Canal
Dover" 1t brought to my mind many
recollections of my boyhood days
was born in Canal Dover and lived
there until ] was seventeen years old.
Quantrill family.
My father made the brick for the
school bJii6ing that Thomas Quantrlll
taught In just before he died ] was
going to school there at the time of
his death. He was highly respected,
and his death was mourned by parents
and pupils, the whole school wore crepe
for 80 days after his death.
I knew Thomas Quantrill's son, the
famous guerilla, Bill Quantrll well
when he was boy. He was three or
four years older than I. He was one Of
the leaders of the boys Of his age in
all their plays and schoolboy pranks.
He was mischevious and had a rather
adventuresome nature. He liked sports
of all kinds.
Once, recollect, just after the first
Indian show that came to Dover. he
organized about 20 OF the boys of his
age into an Indian tribe, he being their
chief. He had them dressed in Indian
costumes and paraded the streets every
Saturday for several months.
At another time, he and a son of DIR.
McMeafs gathered together all their
fathers old books and had a lottery,
selling the tickets for six marbles each.
1 drew sevral of the books. He and
young McMeal were great croneys,
often going nutting fishing and hunt
ing together. Once they ran a kite shop
together in the doctors barn. They
made kites and sold or traded them to
the other boys for anything they could
get. Quantrill was, however, good
student and had fair education when
he left Dover, which, as near as I can
recolleot, was in the fall of 55. He
was then about 20 or 81 years old. He
had two brothers who, when they were
boys, were noisier than Bill. One of
them, think, enlisted in the Union
| army. .. N.
When the Fifty-first infantry was or
ganized In Canal Dover I heard many
of the boys swear vengeance on Bill II
they would ever catch him.

Special to News Democrat.
Carrollton, Dec. 4.-This city is at
present stirred up over a war that Is
going on between Joseph V. Lawler,
editor of the Chronicle, and George s..
Tinlin, ex-auditor of the county.
In September q new auditor went in
to Office. Since his advent, not only he,
but Editor Lawler and number Of
others, with detective proclivities, have
been pouring over the auditors books
between stubs and entries, with the
hope of finding something that will re-
fleet against the ex-auditor tits said.
Pay dirt was struck early in the
prospecting. It is reported. There is
sald to be q stub on the order book for
$500, and another for which no amount
was found in the commissioner journ-
al. The investigation was carried fur
ther. and the Chronicle charged ex-
Auditor Tinlin with some very ugly
things. 4 ..&t.
When the paper fell into. Tinlin's
hands he is said to have waxed angfts,
He threatened to thrash Lawler on
sight, it is runaored. t5~ saj''
After waitingieome time, Tinlin got
j. M. Westfall, another ex-auditor to
accompany him'to LAWYERS home on
Oak Hill Tinlin's friends assert that
he made the air lurid with tiradei Of
abuse and threats, which he Is reported
to have heaped upon the editor. r,
Tinlin claims to have told him that II
he published anything further, deroga-
tory to him, he could prepare to meet
his God" a
Lawlertis a member of the CatholiZ
church. Tinlin is said to have referred
to his religion in a rather uncompli-
mentary style. The ex-auditor is o
Methodist, and the feud has got into
the churches, 1t is said. Sunday night
the Methodist minister. In his sermon
referred to the Catholics in rather Sc
we're terms. and 1t Is said that the ami
mus of the attack grew out of the fight
between Lawler and Tinlin.
The last issue of the Chronicle was
awaited with bated breath and a fever
Of anxiety. When 1t appeared, under
scare-head lines, and in a double col
umn. was a statement of what Tinlin
had drawn from the county during the
last thirteen and one-half months he
was in Office. More than $1,000 was
shown by the books, vouchers and stubs
to have been the amount so drawn ac-
cording to the Chronicle.
Tinlin met the last attack without
any show of violence. Lawler was not
sent to meet his maker.
The ex-auditor is tabulating a state
ment of explanation. He will seek re-
dress through the columns of the Re-
publican Standard.
Neither Of the local Republican pa
pers has very vigorously defended
Mr.. Tinlin. One has been silent, while
the other has made only a feeble effort
In his behalf.
Ex-Auditor Tinlin Is the cashier oi
bank In this city. He Is quite prom
inent In politics.
The undertakers have ceased tc
watch the contest with their first ex
pectancy. 1t Is now thought that nc
gore will be.spilled.
