VuIgarity.

At a mountain hunting resort a
richly dressed, ford looking woman,
bedecked with Jewels in the daytime
remarked to one Of her family party
in a loud. confident tone, They're the
same crowd; I seen them people at the
station In New York" The tone, the
atrocious mangling Of the English Ian
guage, the dress and manner, elected
the comment from an old gentleman,
How utterly coarse, common and

The guides and native hunters vio-
late all the rules Of grammar in their
speech. They say, Hank, I hain't got
no terbacker in this coat" and the
like, and yet their rude and uncouth
speech does not strike any one used to
the words as vulgar" Rough and IN
grammatical speech from the lips of
rough and unlettered men seems rath-

common and hideous language from

Wire from All Over
Indiana.

Muncie. Ind, Jan. 10. - Judge La
Toilette, Of Portland, sitting as spe-
cial judge in the case against George
Miller. a wealthy young CASTOR farm
er. who was tried here on the charge
of contributing to his wife's death by
abetting an Illegal operation, held that
the publication Of prejudiced reports
Of a criminal case on trial, by news
paper, is not sufficient ground for
granting a change of venue, and,
therefore, overruled the petition of
Miller to have the retrial Of his case in
another county.
Effect of Newspaper Prosecution.
1t was charged by MilIers attorneys
that a newspaper, during the progress
of Millers trial, which resulted in a
disa agreement of the jury, published
daily reports of the case that were
"colored' against the interests Of the
defendant, the intent of each article
being to prejudice the public against
Miller. In defense Of their position

ty-seyen residents of the county, all
saying that in the opinion Of the af-
tiauts. a fair trial could not be given
the prisoner in this county. The court
held that the public, while it undogbt-
eddy Is Influenced by newspaper ac-
count, would not make up its mind suf-
ficently from these accounts many CIV
en- case, TO prejudice it, If, under oath,
it should be doing jury service.
Doesn't Intend to Injure Him.
1t is the first time in Indiana, attor-
neys here said, that this point has
been brought out in a court Of law
The court, in rendering his opinion,
said the newspaper accounts Of the
trial were, at times, garbled, and the
news columns really partook of edI-
torial opinions, but that, in his opin-
ion, it was not the intention Of the
newspaper to damage the interests Of
the defendant.

WILL ELIMINATE WRECKS.

Regarding the invention OF DR.. Carl
D. Fuller, formerly OF Rolling Prairie.
LaPorte county. the Peru Chronicle
says:
DR.. Carl D. Fuller of Bourbon has
excited the railway world by the in
Ventlon or new switch which It is
believed will stop so per cent. of the
railway accidents of this country. The
nightmare of the engineer and also
his dread by day is the deadly switch
point which IS liable to catch his en-
CINE and hurl the train into a fear
full smashup. DIR. Fuller had worked
on the railroad and knew Of this dang
er In the ordinary switch.
For the past ten years he has at
times been working on his patent
switch TO avoid this dangerous point
and make a switch which Will be alb
solutely safe. His model was made
public for the first time last week
Wednesday. on Saturday Superin-
tendent Hill of the Pennsylvania was
In Bourbon to see the model and ex-
pressed deep interest and satisfaction
with DR.. FulIer's patent Every OBJ
lection which could be made he brush
ed aside as Of no consequence. Other
railway men are enquiring about the
model and in ali probability there will
be keen rivalry between the Penn
sylvania and Lake Shore systems for
the control of the patent, because 1T
means a great advancement in the
safety Of modern travel.

We had left the track, plowed hun

was done.
Foley choked his train the instant
he saw our hind lights bobbing. We
climbed down and ran back. He had
stopped just where we should have
stood if l had shut of. Bartholomew
ran to the switch to examine it. The
contact light, green, still burned like a
false beacon, and lucky it did, for it
showed the switch had been tempered
with and exonerated Bartholomew
Mullen completely. The attempt of
the strikers to spill the silk right in
the yards had only made the reputa-
ton of a new engineer. Thirty min
utes later the million dollar train was
turned over TO the eastern division TO
