The couple were married in Logansport Mirch 2, 1897. Plaintiff alleges that on the 3d day of April, 1897, the defendant, without any cause or reason, left her and has since refused to live with her or give her any support whatever; that the defendant has been guilty of cruel and inhuman treatment of plaintiff In that since their marriage he has been in the most open and notorious way, paying attention to and going with other women, and especially with SADIE SEAD0S, an unmarried woman; that he has taken her to dances, buggy riding, and has walked with her both in the day time and at night; that on one occasion he was with her for an entire day in the city of Logansport, and left said city about 8 o'clock at night and arrived at Georgetown at about midnight; that this conduct of the defendant has been so open and notorious that it has become the public talk of the people of the said community in which they lived, and was for the purpose of wounding and hurting the feelings and to cause plaintiff suffering; that during said time plaintiff has been living a virtuous life supporting herself by her daily labor: that during said time defendant has been squandering his earnings on other women.

Plaintiff further charges that defendant committed adultery with said Seadus; that when he left plaintiff she was confined to her bed, sick, without suitable provision for her care and comfort; that when he left her he went to Danville, and remained there for some time; that he married her solely for the property she expected at some time to inherit from her father, and told persona that he was marrying eighty acres of land.

At New Albany Wednesday Judge Hester appointed John B. James receiver for the Red Men's Fraternal Accident association and the receivership will extend throughout the country wherever the association operates, sayn an exchange.

In his address at the farmers' meet ing in Starke county, this week, Prof. Huston, chemist at Purdue university, spoke of sugar beet ture as follows: "This is the tenth" crop I have taken off, and during the present year we have had a very much greater Interest here in the matter than ever before.

The results are such as to indicate that the Kankakee valley is the most promising section of the state for the establishment of a beet-sugar factory. The yields and the quality ot the beets are both ID quality the beets exceed those obtained this season from any other parts of the state." The Weather.

The paymasters on the Pennsylvania will start, out earlier than usual this month In order that the enpioyes may have their Christmas money. The failure to Inspect the Wabash this winter is said to be due to the heavy business the road is doing, giving no opportunity for a proper examination.

F. D. Butcher, who has been located as station agent and operator at Jessups, on the Vandalia, has been transferred a town a few miles north of Logansport. The county commissioners at Andersun refused to grant a franchise to the Clodfelter, Indianapolis Marion Electric railway over the roads of the county from Elwood to Alexandria. The company will offer cash and a bond to keep the highway in repair.

James Murphy, of the Panhandle baggage room, has received word of the death ot his friend, Charles Werst, the man whose release from prison he obtained after finding proof of his innocence, Mr. Werst, it will be remembered, was in very poor health while in this city a short time ago. So satisfactory were the tests between Chicago and New York over the Pennsylvania lines that it is believed that next spring the time table will show a train in both directions which will make the ran between these cities in twenty houis, The schedule of its fastest train is now twenty-four hours. Mr. Grlner, fireman on the Panhandle, slipped 'from the cab of his engine last'evening while shoveling coal, suffering a severe gash in his cheek.

The a'ccldent happened near the Panhandle station and he was taken to the offise of the company's surgeon, where Dr Hetheringtbn dressed the young man's injuries. Experiments have already been made ou seven representative roads, which show that the average trainload of plying freight is 257 tons, or about 25 per cent of the entire weight hauled. It is claimed that a train of thirty steel cars ot 100,000 pounds capacity would carry 1,500 tons of paying freight with a dead weight of 510 tons, thus making the paying freight carried about 75 per cent of the total tonnage hauled. Forty-six wooden cars would be required to carry the same load and would also increase the train length 517 feet, a very important item in practical railroading. Twenty-five years ago the railroads were equipped with cars ranging from ten to fifteen, tons capacity.

Today from twenty-five to thirty tons capacity prevails, and it is claimed that the next ten years will see a general use or fifty-ton cars. Glass Blowers Coming.

Is That So? Miami County Sentinel: Logansport is becoming remarkable for the number of men who carry canes. The most of them do not carry canes to be dudish, but since so many holdups take place in that city the canes are carried for protection. Some of them are heavily loaded with lead and one good blow will stretch a footpad on the ground. Circnlt Court. But little business was transacted in the Circuit court today.
