Capt. Estes in the reports
1.-THE action of Capt. Estes at Flint river

''The confederates built no more barri-

did he and his cavalry pursue them that
they didn't have time to turn around to
fire. Retreatng across the Flint river, they
tore up some planking and set fire to the

Estes and a part OF his cavalrymen dis
mounted, rushed on to the burning string

The change in the Metropolitan Police
Journal. was effected yesterday afternoon.
The announcement was made at the Gov
errors office that ID. c. Reardon's resig-
nation had been accepted and that Mark
Swayzee, a prominent merchant of Marion,
had been named as his successor.
1t is minated that Mr.. Reardon did not

Durbin would be pleased to accept his resig-
nation. Secretary Lockwood, as the rep
resentative of the Governor, declined to
discuss the matter last evening, further
than to announce the change.
The change was made, 1t is understood,
because the board has been permitting Ma
rion to be run on the "wide-open" plan, and
trolling or dominating member of the
board. There is no intimation that W.. w
McCleery, the other Republican member.
or A. Z. Gibson, Democrat, will be dis
turbed. Mr.. Swayzee, the new member, is
said to be an active. aggressive man, who
may be relied upon to stand for law en-
forcement.
Accompanied with the news of the change
in the Marion board comes the report that
Governor Durbin has declared that he will
shake up any and every metropolitan police

ernor was not here yesterday, and conse-
quently could not be seen to confirm or to

nothing to say as to the Governors posi-
ton on that point.

DEATH ENDS HER Toll
MRS. HARRIET sTOTT LABORED
HARD To PAY FAMILY DEBTS.
Successful i'm Her Endeavor, She Left
Bequest of $500 to the Holy
I~nnocents Church.

A sad story of a woman ~truggling to pay
off many debts incurred by her hard-work-
ing husband during his life was revealed
in the death of Mrs. Harriet Stott, whose
funeral will be held tomorrow from Whit
sett & Culver's chapel on North Meridian
street. Mrs. Stott was the widow of Thomas
Stott, who was at one time in partnership
with Mr.. Goddard in the stone business at
Kentucky avenue and Missouri street.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stott arrived in this coun-
try from England twenty-five years ago. 1t
was a hard struggle for Mr.. Stott to at
tain his ambition of owning his own home.
Finally he secured enough money to pur-
chase a small lot at 500 English avenue.
Later Mr.. Stott made some money out of
the stone business in company with Mr..
Goddard and erected a house. Mr.. Stott died
a few years ago. leaving some Indebtedness
on his home. His wife was an indefatigable
worker and determined that she would pay
off the Indebtedness caused by her hus-
band. She kept a boarding house, and TO
replenish her table with the delicacies of
the market often walked to save ~carfare
from the East Market back to her home on
the South Side carrying a large basket of
vegetables.
About one year ago Mrs. Stott became ill
from her arduous work. Her illness con-
tinued until death came to her relief Friday.
While she lay ill the Rev. Francis Wood
ward, of Holy Innocents' Church, and Judge
Daniel Wait Howe looked after the wants
of the stricken woman. In a Will made some
time ago Mrs. StOtt left $500 to Holy Inno-
cents Church. Another amount was left
aside for some relatives in England. She
left no children.

DEEP WELLS in THE CITY
BIG BUILDINGS THAT ALWAYS HAVE
SUPPLY OF PURE WATER.
Only Assurance of Purity Is to Sink
Wells Into the Limestone Rock
Far Beneath the Surface.

A recent statement in a city paper that
the water of the well at the ~Statehouse
had been ana;yzed and pronounced impure
led many persons to wonder il there is
such a thing as pure well water in In
dianapoIis- A Journal reporter consulted
Mr.. Charles krauss. an authority on the
subject. and learned that there is plenty
OF pure water. but IL is only found in
deep driven wells. The Statehouse well
was sunk about twenty years ago and is
only about sixty feet deep. The city is un-
derlaid by a vein of pure water which can
be had for the boring into limestone. The
old dug wells OF primitive indianapolis
were from twenty to thirty feet deep. Their
water was pure at first. but i'm time the
soI became contaminated and the water
impure. Many of those old wells have been
condemned and al of them ought to be.
Wate- nay lock clear and sparkling and
yet be contaminated.
MIR. krauss says the only assurance of
absolutely pure we'll water Is by going
far into the limestone rock which is a hun
bred feet below the surface. This rock for
nation underiies the whole city and is
found at a uniform depth. To reach it the
drill has TO pass through the soil, gravel
and clay formations which lie above. The
limestone a. porous ana supplies water
somewhat as Trenton rock does oil. Its
water supply l. iEexhaustible and pure
beyond the Utility OF contamination
Among the driven wells that have been
sunk into ths limestone are that at the
Soldiers Monument. 260 feet deep: at the
English Hotel. $50 feet: at the Newton Clay
pool building. 30 feet: at the Majestic
building. 80 feet; at the Century build
ing, 20 feet: the courthouse well. $50 feet,
the Columbia Club. 36 feet: the When
Store. $50 feet. the Manual TRAINING School
800 feet; the City Library. 300 feet. OF about
the same depth are wells at the ~institu-
lions for the blind. the deaf and dumb and
the Insane Hospital. at St. Vincent's Hos
pital. at the Blacherne. at Eli Lilly e. Cos
and Others. All OF these wells go from 1e
10 800 feet into limestone. Six wells bored
for the city a few years ago go from thirty
10 seventy feet into limestone.
The new government building will have
two wells 600 feet deep and the interurbar
station one OF 40 feet. Every brewery IN
the city has from four to five deep wells
and they find the water wholly pure for
their business. All OF the wells above
named are eight inches in diameter and
each one will supply a hundred gallons OF
water a minute. The stratum of limestone
which supplies this water Is 800 feet thicl
and what lies below nobody knows to a
certainty.

GOES OUT OF BUSINESS
SLOAN DRUG COMPANY ENDS CAREER
OF FIFTY-FIvE YEARS.
A. Smith-HfstOry of Firms
Career.

With the sale OF the Sloan Drug Com
pany's store in the Denison Hotel building
on North Pennsylvania street there passes
out of existence the oldest retail drug COM
pany in Indiana and one of the oldest retail
drug houses in the West.
The company sold the Denison House
store yesterday to Cyrus n. Smith and will
retire from business. George b. Sloan, son
of the late George w. Sloan, will establish
in Indianapolis a mandatory of pharma-
ceutical specialties. George B. Sloan sue
ceeded his father as head of the company
The history of the Sloan retail drug house
covers hfty-five years of the history of the
growth and development of Indianapolis.
George w. Sloan. a pharmacist of national
reputation, who died last February, was in
the drug business on Washington street,
between Meridian and Illinois streets, for
ifty-fve years. After serving as a clerk
for several years in the drug store of his
uncle, David Creighead, George w. Sloan
became a full partner in the firm in 1862.
A short time later the store was moved to
Washington street between Meridian and
Illinois streets. where ii has since remained.
This store was recently sold to Henry
Huber.
In 1856 the firm met financial reverses, but
George w. Sloan had many friends among
the most successful business men of the
city and he was given financial assistance.
He then organized the Sloan Drug Com
pany. which has always been one OF the
most successful retail concerns of the city.
When the Sloan drug house was estab-
lished indianapolis was a small city of only
10000 inhabitants. and there were but four
retail drug stores in the city. George w
Sloan had n national reputation as a phar-
macist and his formulas for the manufac-
ture Of medicine, and especially tinctures.
have been used I'm the United States Dis
pensatory, and the Sloan Drug Company
was known all over the country.

Police superintendent Resigns.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
MARION, Ind, Aug. 15.-Lindsey Adding
ton. superintendent of the Marion police
department, handed in his resignation to
the police department, TO take effect i'm
m~ediately. Mr.. Addington says his reason
for resigning was the continual agitation
and faultfinding by an element that had
been bounding him for some time. He
became superintendent of police April L,
1901, serving two years and five months.
w. w. McCleery. president of the police
board, states that Captain Bert White will
be placed in charge of the department until
the board is organized, when a successor
will be named. Marion citizens favor Cap
tain Whites appointment as permanent
superintendent of police. The appointment
of Mark l.. Swayzee to succeed ID. c. Rear
don, resigned, as a member of the board,
meets with general approval of citizens.
