In 1t He Is Charged With MUIR
der in First Degree for
Killing His Wife.
DEFENSE TO BE INSANITY.
PROSECUTOR CLAIMS THAT he
HAS POSITIVE PROOF THAT
FISHERS WIFE WAS NOT UN.
TRUE TO HIM.

Late Monday afternoon the grand
jury returned an indictment against
Lon Fisher. colored. charging him with
murder in the first degree. The jury
worked on the case since Friday morn
ing of last week. The report was filed
with Judge Fox and was not obtainable
owing TO his absence from the city.
The grand jury was not in session this
afternoon owing to the fact that Judge
Fox adjourned court. The grand jury
will be in session again Wednesday To
consider some cases. the nature OF
which has been kept secret.
Prosecutor Jessup states that Fisher
probably would be brought TO trial
August ;. Fisher will be defended
by Attorney +. J. Freeman, and his
defense will no doubt be insanity.
Prosecutor Jessup states that Fisher -
perfectly sane in his opinion and that
he will have no difficulty in proving
him so
In the Fisher defense IL will be
brought out to mitigate the offense OF
the accused that while Fisher was serv-
ing sentence in the county jail the past
spring. and early part of the summer.
that his wife had kept company with
colored man. Sam Patterson. and that
she had been untrue to him. The
defense will attempt to show that this
fact so worked upon Fishers nina
that he became mentally unbalanced
and was prompted to murder his faith
less wife.
Prosecutor Jessup states that he has
positive proof that Mrs. Fisher was not
unfaithful to Fisher and that he was
the father of the womans unborn
child. Sheriff Meredith admitted that
last Thursday night he had armed
guards at the jail in anticipation that q
mob would attempt to take Fisher from
the jail and lynch him. The sheriff
stated that the colored people OF this
city were greatly wrought up over
Fishers deed and that they had openly
threatened to lynch him.

Pupils Have Again Shown
Their Love for Art.
THEIR SECOND PURCHASE.

The Hibberd school has again
shown it's love for art, by purchasing
the picture of William wendt entitl-

shown at the art exhibit. The
chase price was $3.50, s75 of W j
was paid, while the remaining amount
will be raised by the children with
public entertainments and such means
of raising money.
The Wendt picture is the second adj
ded to the Hibberd school collection
the other being purchased some time
ago. 1t is from the brush of Adam
Emory Albright and is entitled "Shad-
ows on the Wall" The students
since the establishment of the art ex-
hibit in this city, have taken a great
interest in those things pertaining to
the aesthetic and agreed some time
ago to each year raise money to be
turned toward the purchase of pic
lures for the school. This method is
tedious, but nevertheless the students
have been persevering and two fine
pictures will now hang on the walls
of the school building as excellent
testimonies to their work

County Auditor III. j. Hanes. Coun.
ty Treasurer b. b. Myrick Jr.. and
County Attorney j. +. Robbins. o.
peared before the state tax board Mon
day at indianapolis. and presented ar
cent increase on real estate in Wayne
county. which was suggested by the
state tax board.
There were nineteen other counties
represented by delegations Monday %
protest against the increase in the as
sessments on real estate. consequently
each county delegation was allowed on
ly few minutes to present it's argu-
ments against the increase In their re-
spective counties. The tax board took
no action Monday on these protests,
but in a week or two it is expected 10
hand down it's findings.
Mr. Myrick has returned from In
dianapolis and he stated that the
Wayne county representatives argued
before the board to the effect that an
additional assessment on real estate
in this county is unjust. showing that
in the past four years the total gain on
assessments on Wayne county real es-
tate amounted to S,,T43, 200. IT was
also pointed ont that the increased as
sessment on lands alone in this county
during the past four years amounted to
4 per cent. and that on lands and i'm
provements . per cent increase in
the past four years is shown.
This per cent. increase included
all unplatted lands and improvements
in corporations and the board refused
to consider this claim. stating that on
ly farm property is to be considered.
1t was shown to the board that the in
crease on Wayne county farm property
the past four years is higher than I'm
other counties of the same size and
population. The delegation conclud-
ed it's argument that the assessments
on real estate in Wayne county now
to 20 per cent of the real
valuation of the property, while in 9TH
er counties the general assessment av-
erage showed that real estate was as
sessed at from 80 to GO per cent of its
real valuation.

people of Richmond and vicinity are
contemplating camping at the chau-

though it was at first thought the de-

fractions have been added. one of them
the Majestic quartet of Sprin gfield. o.,
which is considered one of the best
chautauqua quartets in the business.
The men not only sing standard quar-
tet selections, but also sing many that
appeal to the funny side of many and
for this reason are considered a valu-
able acquisition to the program.
Miss O'Brien. a reader. has also been
selected TO give readings during the
latter days of the Chautauqua sessions.
She is considered one of the best read
ers in the country. The program
committee is well pleased with both
the additions to the already large pro-
