Public Works of the city OF Indianapolis,
being an office of trust and profit under the
laws of the State of Indiana. contrary to
the form Of the statute In such cases made
and provided and against the peace and
dignity OF the sstI1y State Of indiana, ID acsnoN
The affidavit was prepared by Deputy
Prosecutor Holmes and Henry n. Spaan
and signed by Mr.. Logsdon late yesterday
afternoon. 1t is drawn under Section 2009
Of Horner's Revised Statutes and will be
substituted for the affidavit: made by De-
tective Colbert against Smith on Monday.
TRIED TO UNMASK HIM.
1t is understood that the prosecution will
be able TO show that when Smith first
went to Logsdon. Logsdon demanded TO
know Of Smith, or Stahl, what "creden-
tials'' he had. Logsdon's purpose was to
unmask the detective as fully as possible.
Stahl told Logsdon that he could have his
company telegraph authority or to identi-
fy him.
He then left, and later the telegram was
delivered Ivy a messenger to Fred Heiers
saloon. where it was addressed TO Stahl
under the name of Smith. 1t is under
stood that the prosecution will be able 10
show that this telegram was written by
member of the Citizens League who was
possessed OF Western Union receiving
blanks and envelopes and who manufac-
tured a fairly good counterfeit telegram.
The intent and purpose of Mr.. Logsdons
affidavit is understood TO be a charge
against DR.. Hunt that he furnished the
telegram and that all these arrangements
were made with the knowledge and as

Henry n. Spaan, who prepared the affi-
davit, has been retained to assist in the
prosecution of the charges against Stahl.
1t is understood the prosecution is we'll
provided with testimony which will be in
troduced against Stahl in the preliminary
examination. This testimony will disclose
just how Stahl was engaged and by whom
and the prosecution thinks its testimony
will show that the Indianapolis News was
interested in Stahls employment and other
developments that will alter many impress
sions now strong with those who have not
had all the facts.
Stahl's character has been the subject
of inquiry. The ST. Louis police do not
speak we'll of him and their opinion was
hardly received by Superintendent Taffe
until the following telegram was received
from Richard Sylvester, chief of police at
Washington, ID. c.

compelled to resign: not considered reliable

Beat the Great Northern.

The case Of Thos. Campbell
and j. r. Fortune VS.. the Great
Northern railway company was
decided in favor of Campbell and
Fortune, in the district court
last week. Those gentlemen
have valuable claims near Glen
burn. When the company Eek
tened it's line from Granville,
they took five and nine-tenths
acres of Campbell's land and /,
little more from Fortune for the
right-of-way, They offered them
twenty-five dollars an acre, but
Campbell alone asked for 500.
The jury decided that Campbell
should receive 1915 and For
tune 1895. The company may
carry the case up, but it is doubt
full. LeSueur & Bradford were
attorneys for Campbell and For
tune.

engaged in depressing the people about
Cork. so naturally. when he planted
the potato on his estate at Youghai,
near Cork, the people were suspicious
of it despite its palatableness. Cob
bett cursed the root as being the ruin
of Ireland, declaring it a device Of Sax
on ingenuity brought into their midst
to tempt and eventually to weaken
them. Sir Walter ate quantities of po-

the people of their harmlessness. Now,
with commendable gratitude, the tour
list is shown the very spot in the gar
den where Sir Walter planted the pota-

have a lesson for US. In their nightly
bath and morning wash the water il

not as it can be borne. To foreigners
this habit seems very surprising. but

The cold taking which, it is suspect
bed, must follow it is not found to occur
II the water has been hot enough, This
heat is maintained by a little furnace
beneath the bath. In the bath the
bather or bathers take a prolonged
soaking, the washing proper being done
on the bathroom floor; then follow a
second and final soaking, drying with
towel and a lounge in bathing
This habit seems to promote s%oftness
and suppleness of the skin and by nor.
