ATE PRISON INMATES.

Indianapolis, Feb. 1O.-It became
know yesterday that the citation Of an
opinion by the supreme court by James
ID. Reid, warden OF the Indiana peni-
fentiary at. Michigan City, was all that
prevented the release from prison of
Thomas j. Mccoy. the Rensselaer,
bank wrecker. The opinion which
would have resulted in the release OF
Mccoy was given by the Attorney
General and was to the effect that Nc
Coy was entitled to good time under
AN old law even though he was con-
victed and sentenced under the indie
terminate sentence law. This construc-
tion Of the law would have resulted
also In the release OF at least 100 OF
the worst prisoners In the peniten-
tiary.
The attorney generals opinion was
forwarded to Governor Marshall when
attorney for Mccoy raised the question
of the release Of Mccoy. The governor
forwarded the opinion to Mr.. Reid
Newspapers got hold Of the facts

"Ihe Thief

The Thief which Charles Frohman
will bring to this city for the first time
at the Gennett theater Feb. 16 is from
the pen of Henry Bernstein, one of the
most ingenious and successful of con-
temporary playwrights. Mr.. Berstein
is already known for several plays
similar in construction, very similar
in ingenuity and composition to The
Thief but it is probable for many
years to come he will be known in this
country as he still is in France as the
author of The Thief despite his
more recent plays.

DR.. ]. H. Patton and family will move

manse has been remodelled at an ex-
pense of SO, 900, ard is a beautiful home
and quite creditable to the liberality Of
the members of the Presbyte church
in providing for the comfort of their
pastor and his family.
On Monday evening the congregation
had "house-warming" at the manse
from 8 to 8, which was largely attended
the pastors and their families of the
other city churches being invited to be
present. A large crowd was in attend
ance, and it proved delightful social
function. 4 miscellaneous shower"
was feature of the occasion, and many
useful, ornamental and valuable house.

benefit of the pastor and family. Light
refreshments we're served, and the oc-

OLDEST DRUG STORE
CHANGES HANDS,
G. I M. Crosby & Co, Sell
to r. E. Butler &
Sons.

A very important business change
took place in Marietta last Saturday.
The Oldest drug store in the city, c. M.
Crosby & Co., was bought by Messrs.
Il. E. Butler & Sons, and will be con-
tinued under that firm name.
DIR. G. M. Law will remain until June
lst, to close up the old business and as
sist in the management of the business,
The Messrs. Collins, two thoroughly
competent and excellent pharmacists
and courteous gentlemen, will remain
with the new firm, and with the access
sions of the Messrs. Butler and the
other clerks, the business no doubt will
be systematically, carefully and intelli-
gently managed and prosperous.
There are few better business men,
or one more clever, than Mr.. R. E. But
Ter, who has demonstrated this in the
remarkable success he has achieved
since coming to Marietta.
While we regret to part, in business
way, with those clever people, DR.. c..
M. Law and Mrs. Crosby, who have 80
many friends here, we are glad to know
that they will still remain citizens of
Marietta.
The Journal extends good wishes to
the outgoing and success to the incom-
ing.

all times.
The property was bought from Messrs

A STORMY NIGHT
RAIN AND WIND,
Windows Rattle, Light
ningS Flash and Sleep
Disturbed.

Thursday night was quite stormy,
and disturbed our citizens no little,
many losing many hours of sleep on
account of the strong wind blowing,
rafting windows and blinds as if the
houses were about to be moved. Rain
came down copiously. The lightnings
were incessant and vivid, while the
peals of thunder were like detonations
OF cannon, shaking houses like an earth
quake. The writer lost several hours of
sleep, owing to the atmospheric dis
turbance. By daylight the wind and
rain mad ceased and calm once more
prevailed, to the satisfaction of our
deniZena.

When the Floyd city court holds its
regular session next month, a new Ste

Charles B. Willingham, of Marietta, s
former Roman. He is said to be very
rapid and accurate court reporter. He
will probably move back to Rome in

We hope he win not move from Ma

stenographer anywhere. For years as
stenographer of the Blue Ridge Circuit,
he gave eminent satisfaction.

Poultry Institutes Apirl 3.

The two hundred thirty-fivel
farmers Institutes in Kansas con-
stltute a powerful organization
for the improvement of agricul.
ture. There are practically TWEEN
ty thousand farmers and their
wives connected with these insti-
tutes. At the various meetings
this year the subject of poultry
has always been discussed with
interest. The old hen has been
paying a lot of bills in Kansas
and thoughtful farmers are be-
ginning to give consideration to
the best ways of handling this
class of live stock.
Therefore, the Farmers Inst.
tute Department of the Kansas
Agricultural College has suggest.
ed that all institutes meet on Sat.
urday, April 3, 200 to 1 90 D. M.
to discuss this usbject. The fol,
lowing topics are suggested: (D
Mating the breeding stock for thu
Improvement of the flock. ~
Care of the breeding stock. (3)
Matching. (4)Brooding the chick
% Feeding the young stock. (6)
Kind, 'broilers, layers, 'capons.
1t is hoped that each institute
president will call a meeting of
his institute for that day and
select leaders for the discussion.
County presidents are requested
to arrange for special meetings al
villages where no local instiut-
has been organized and to appoin,
a chairman for theday, usually a
county vice-president. Let every
Kansas farmer and his wife at
third of April. The subject for
tend a poultry meeting on the
