changed its appearance, but it is still
the old capitol building in the eyes of
Nincennes people, and efforts are max
ing to interest the city or state to buy
il and transform it into a museum,
placing il in one of the parks.
The building is now used as resi-
dence and unless it gets some atten-
ton it will soon begin 10 decay. 1t is
owned by Thomas kilfoil. 1t could be
bought, it is believed, for about $500.
For many years it stood in the princi-
pal street in the city and has been
used as business house, as well as a
home for numerous families. Much
history was made in the old building
while it was the meeting place of the
legislature of Indiana Territory. which
was formed from part of the North
west territory.
Gov. William Henry Harrison read
his first message in the old building,
and in the message he worked for the
passage of a measure that would pre-
vent the sale of intoxicants TO the In
dians. The measure, it is said, was
never passed.
At the session of the legislature in
this building in 1907, laws were made
attaching the death penalty for crimes
of treason. murder, arson and horse
stealing. Burglary and robbery were
made punishable by whipping, fine and
imprisonment. Larceny was made
punishable by fine or whipping; steal
ing by fine and whipping: bigamy by
fine. whipping and disfranchisement.
Stringent laws were also made for the
punishment of children and servants
who refused to obey their parents or
masters.
Between August 12 and 90. 1910. the
Indian chief Tecumseh with rs war
riors appeared daily before Gov. Har-
rison in the old building. and it was in
that building that Tecumseh lost his
temper and gave the lie to the COVER
nor.
Hundreds of historic instances oc-
CURED in the old building. and almost
every prominent man in the country
at that time set his foot inside Of it.
The last session of the legislature
ended in it on March 13. 1913. and it is
said that the last law passed in it was
that which required the capitol to be
moved to Corydon. Ind.

experimenting in his laboratory he
discovered that he could combine Ger.

being dropped into water, dissolved
