COURT HOUSE WORK TOO
SLOW FOR ELSASSER
Resolution f. introduced to Have
Work on Structure Move
Faster.

resolution designed to hustle the work
on the new court house was introduced
Saturday at the meeting of the county
commissioners by Peter e. Elsasser. The
resolution was referred TO the committee
of the whole and the architect.
Elsasser heavily scored the contractors
for their slowness stating that although
the contract called for S27, 900 worth Of
work every month, that so far the figures
showed only an average Of $4,000 month.
According TO his statements, only Sl3 OO0
worth OF work has been done in January
and only 5000 in February
John c. Lynch gave his hearty endorse
ment to the purpose Of the resolution, il
not the wording, saying that he had not
heard from the contractors since he had
taken his place on the board.
The resolution quoted an article of the
contract IN which, in the judgment Of the
architect. the contractors were not pushing
the work as required. the owners might
hire men and deduct their wages from the
amount due at the completion OF the con-
tract
Bids on road grading by w. A. Streeter,
Turner & Kraoht and Condor & Griffith,
ranging from IS cents to 22ik cents a cubic
yard, were accepted by the board. Their
acceptance was strongly opposed by Mr..
ElsRsser on the grounds that they were
too high.

Mystery Of Forty
Years Solved by
Finding Of Ring
Skeleton Found Near Noblesville, Ind,
that of E. c. Woodmansee, Who
Disappeared on Wedding Day.

NOBLESVILLE Ind. March 1S.-The
mystery surrounding the finding here a
few weeks ago Of a trunk filled with parts
of a human skeleton and containing a pc
culiarly carved ring, apparently was solved
today with the receipt of a letter from
sister-in-law Of Eugene c. Woodmansee Of
Danville Ill, Identifying the ring as one
that belonged to Woodmansee.
Woodmansee came here forty-four years
ago to wed Miss Sarah Writ and procured
a license. A few hours before the ceremony
he disappeared and was never heard Of
| again. The bones we're found on the site
of an old roadhouse that flourished near
White river about the time of the civil war,
and It is supposed the man was murdered
for the $500 which it is known he had.
Mrs. J. H. Woodmansee. the brothers
widow, whose home is in a suburb OF Gin
cinnati, was sent the peculiarly carved
/ ring and identified 1t as being a duplicate
Of one worn by her husband. She stated
that her husband mourned his brother as
dead
Miss Writ, after waiting ten years for her
lover to return was married to Daniel
Jones Of Westfeld, Ind, and died in 1888.
