A BATESVILLE SUICIDE
John W. Crow, Well Known Citi- zen, Died From Overdose
 of Morphine.

John ". Crow, we'll known in tbis section, committed suicide at Batesville last Friday, the follow ing account of which Is taken from the Bee of the 9th inst:
 The people of our city were much surprised and shocked last Friday to learn that Mir. John W. Crow had ended his life by taking morphine. It is supposed that worry over his wife's health, which has been bad for some time, and financial difficulties caused him to take the fatal step.
 4 short time ago MT. Crow sold his residence property and he and his wife had made preparations to go to Denver, Col, for the latter's health. They were to leave on the afternoon train Friday, August 1, and their trunks had been sent to the depot. Mir. Crow was down in town in the forenoon and at- tempted to borrow some money to arrange his affairs for the trip, without success it is said. He purchased 20 grains of morphine, saying he wanted 1t for sieK horse.
 He then went to C. W. Max fields, at whose residence he and bis wife were staying, and about noon took the poison and after wards a bath, apparently prepar- ing for their departure. When called and told that it was time to start to the train he came down stairs and complained cf feeling badly and immediately fell Tn q faint. He never regained con- sciousness and the end came about 7 30 in the evening.

The negroes of North Carolina are to be educated with the money derived from their own taxes, if a movement now on foot in that state is successful. If this is un- dertaken, the chances are the neg roes will get very little education unless their white friends in North Jarolina come to their aid.

Amt Carrie Nation

Aunt Carrie Nation says she
 would sooner kiss a spittoon than man who smokes. " We don t think there is any danger of Aunt Carrie being Hobsonized, for if she looks anything like her pie ture, the average man would as soon kiss the pelt side of q dry skunk hide as Aunt Carries face.

The reason some men never do anything wrong is because they never do anything. If q man is a worker, if he is active and pro- gressiye, if he takes 8 lively inter- est in public affairs, as he should, he will most certainly do some thing wrong sooner or later; but remember, the man who works and makes mistakes is far better and worth more to the communi- ty than the fellow who never does anything.

TOHAVE WATER WORKS
Council Decides That Newark Will Have Waterworks Plant
 of Her Own.

At the council meeting Monday night the water works question was taken ap and thoroughly dis cussed. After a good deal of dis cussion pro and con it was finally decided to put in water works. A petition Was presented to the council some time ago asking that certain blocks in the business DOT ton of town be made an improve ment district for the purpose of putting in water works, but final action on the matter was deferred until last Monday night. The pe- tition was signed by all, or nearly all, real estate owners in the dis trict, but the council very wisely laid the matter over and appoint ed committee to investigate the cost before taking final action.
 The question has been thorough ly discussed privately and every man in town has perhaps express sed himself one way or the other. Members of the council no doubt took this fact into consideration III making up thelr mind on the subject, and now that the council has reached a decision in the mat ter there is no doubt but that we will have water works. Bonds will probably be floated to meet the expense.
 A committee composed of s. C. Beane, W. T. Magness and T. Il. Dearing was appointed to se- feet d location for the tower ard arrange other preliminaries.
 Other matters to receive atten- tion were, the election of J. w. Barnett as street commissioner to succeed Ell Magness. whose re- signation was presented and ac- cepted.
 The office of nightwatchman was created and ". j. Freeze who has been employed by the business men as nlghtwatch, was elected nightwatchman.
 The matter of erecting q bridge across the drain at the alley back of $. C. Beane's place of busmess was referred to the street and al- ley committee with power to act.
 A. X. Henderson desired an ex- pression from the council as to whether that portion of town wherein he and number of others reside would be annexed to the corporation should a petition he presented asking it. The council expl essed itself as willing to an nex that territory if it was the desire of the citizens affected and a petition asking that that terri tory be annexed wlll probably be presented at the next meeting of the council.
 There being no further bu3i- ness the council adjourned.

LEARNED SOMETHING NEW.
Colonel McCaskey listened attentively to
the mayors remarks and when he closed
said: I'VE have made number of inquiries
since we came and learned several things
but we have learned something new to-
night. I judge from what you say, Mr.
Mayor. that the arsenal grounds are not
worth more than s125OOO or $4,000" Mayor
Bookwalter nodded assent.
DR.. Dickey said he wished to state for the
information Of the board and the citizens OF
Indianapolis that Major Shaler did not give
an estimate Of the value Of the arsenal
property. He said he heard the major say
were worth $4,000 100000, but that he
did not tell the secretary Of war that II was
estimate or even his opinion
Judge Gavin told the board that among
the things II ought TO consider In placing an
estimate of value on the arsenal grounds
was the demand for the property. he said
only about half the lots in Woodruff Place
have been taken.
Colonel McCaskey asked IL any one else
wanted to talk, saying that the board
wished to get all the information available
to submit TO the secretary of war. He then

COST OF CRIME In MONEY
STATISTICS GATHERED BY THE
BOARD OF CHARITIES.
A Subject of General Interest Is the
Number of Arrests in Indiana
for IntoxfcntiOn.

The Board of State Charities is collect
ing accurate information regarding offend
ers and the cost Of crime The daily
changes in the population OF the Indiana
jails is given in the regular monthly re-
ports now received by the board A subject
of general interest is the number of arrests
for intoxication. The board says: These
reports show that for the six months end
ing April 80, 1902, there were confined in the
county jails for intoxication 1896 persons
157 women and 5,079 men. In comparative
ly few of these cases do we know that
these were rearrests Twenty-four males
and two females who were sixteen years of
age and under are reported to have been
arrested for intoxication. The great num-
Der falls between the ages of seventeen
and thirty-five-1.91 males and eighty-six
females. Between the ages of thirtyfve
and sixty years there were 1,739 men and
thirty-two women; 237 are reported as six
ty years and over and 1913 men and IS
women do not give any age.
THE expense of caring for these 1886
persons is much greater than that Of car
ing for the tramps for the same period. AS
reported by the sheriffs, 1t amounted TO
s15,OSS.36-s2. 1880 in fees and $12.5ssS6 for
board. This, of course, is the smallest part
of the total expense to the public. The
largest number of persons confined for in
toxication is reported in Grant county,
599 men and seven women, total 6O6 They
cost the county $1,152.91. Vigo county comes
next with 1894 men and thirty-six wom-
en-; cost, s1,SSO.S0. Miami county reports
297 persons confined for intoxication-two
women and 295 men. The cost to the county
was $7s430 Madison county gives 2S1-
twelve women and 269 men; expense, $9262O
Cass county reports 201. all men. at ex-
pense of $571.10 st. Joseph county cared
for 100 men under this charge. The ex-
pense to the county was s90295 Franklin
Hendricks, Newton, Pulaski, Spencer and
