MAIL GOES DEVIOUS WAYS.
Town OF Bovine Bewails Loss OF
Prompt Postal Service.

Princeton. Bovine. 10 use vernac-
ular expression. is hot under the col
lar Contrary TO what one might
think. this is not settlement of farm
animals. but a pleasant little town of
this county The reason why Bovine
is hot is that Uncle Sam has prac-
tically hlotted her--or it-off the pos
tai map
The town, which is in the White
river bottoms, no longer gets mail by
way of rural route No. 5. as formerly.
No longer does the iovial carrier come
in skin. threading his way among
trees and corn cribs from the direc-
tion OF Princeton. Another carrier
now comes to the town from Union.
Pike county. bringing the irate resi-
dents of Bovine mail on which mil
dew has begun TO form.
As an example OF what Rovine is
''up against" this is the route a letter
from Princeton. mailed post-haste,
must take before 1t can reach Bovine.
The letter goes TO Nincennes, Ind.

railroads. At Petersburg this waif of
the mails leaves the shining rails and
takes the stage for Union. a town In
Pike county The letter reaches
Union and is taken in hand by rural
route carrier and is laid down in Bo-
vine. BY that time the contents OF
that letter is no longer news.
Bovine people say they would be
willing TO hire a boat during the wet
season OF the year for the sake OF
timely mail. and in the meantime
they are saying naughty things about
the post office department

Denies SHOOTING Sheriff.

Winamac ~ Following the trag-
edy. in which Sheriff Charles
Oglesby was shot and mortally
wounded in a pitched battle with
three tramps at this place. the temper
of the people who so determinedly
sought their lives has somewhat cooled,
and there is comparative quiet al
though there are knots Of people on
the streets and an undercurrent OF re-
sentiment toward the prisoner is
strongly manifested. aud II would take
but a breath 10 fan ii into flames.
The condition OF Patrick Shea, or
Gear, the tramp who is said to have
done the shooting that struck down
the sheriff, is so improved that he viii
be taken to the Sparks county Jail for
safekeeping. Shea is guarded closely
by guard of four armed deputies.
The vicinity of Winamac has been in
tested with tramps for some time, and
rumors were rife that an organized
effort would be made by some of these
TO rescue Shea and his companions.
If there was anything in these rumors
il did not manifest itself Shea stout
ly denies having shot Oglesby.

the NATIONAL GAME
GREATEST BASEBALL SEASON
EVER KNOWN ENDED.
TOTAL ATTENDANCE MAS 6,lsS,55l
tional-chioago once More Holds
Title Of Champions.

Chicago lll.-The greatest season
ever known has just closed. A
careful compilation of the daily
attendance figures. which have
been kept ever since the American
League expanded East. show that 1897
leads all other baseball years by more
than 100000
The figures show that the American
and National Leagues drew a grand
total Of 6lSS.5o7 persons The near.
est approach TO these figures was in
1904. when $500 200 persons witnessed
the combined games OF the National
and American leagues These figures
are an increase over last year of Az
2GS.
The American League again outdrew
the National, Ban Johnson's organiza-
ton showing a total of 3.39S. 76i. while
tai OF 2.737.79S The American league
drew 100000 more than last year.
while the National league shows de-
crease Of &C 80 Last year the Ameri-
cans outdre the Nationals by 1856.
S63: this season the Americans out
drew the Nationals by more than co.,
600.
This is accounted for by the sensa-
tional race in the American League
from start TO finish. while it was a
foregone conclusion before the season
was half over that the Chicago Cubs
were the best in the National
The worlds series in Chicago and
Detroit has passed into history now
The Detroit Tigers never had a look
in with the National League cham
pions. and once more the worlds title
belongs to this city In Boston alone
did the American League make a
showing. taking all the games from
the Boston Nationals.
The Chicago Cubs get about $500
apiece and. thanks To the generosity
OF the Tigers owner. who donated
$4,000 Jennings men get about the
same amount
