The Secretary of Stto Prefers Writ ten Charges Against Dr. Stevens, Secretary of the Board of Health. At the last meeting of the State lizard of Health Dr. llawn. Secretary of State, told the Board that their Secretary, Dr. Stevens was unfit for the position, and further said that he was ready to bring charges that he was not com netant to fill the position. The matter was freely discussed by the Board, and it was decided to appoint a Committee to investigate the charges made by Dr. Hawn. A Com. iu it tee was appointed of which Lie. J. M Partridge, of South Rend, was Chairman. A few days ago the Secretary uf hiate was requested to prefer his charges against Dr. Stevens in writing. Late yesterday after noon Dr. Hawn forwarder! the following charges to the Chairman of the Committee on Investigation: "In answer to the requestof the Committee appointed by the State Hoard .f Hea'th, that I should submit in writing ufetateiutnt of the grounds uon which I made the charge of incompetency and of excessive and of unncecsary expenditures of the appropria tion of the Hoard of Health against Dr. Thad M. Stevens, Secretary of said Hoard, I have the honor to submit the following s;atcnient of his official acts: 'His requisitions for stationery and mater ial for use in the office of the State Board f Health have been greatly in excess of the amount actually needed. "In the matter of public pt iniiuK I ci.arge that he bad ciucd a larc expenditure of money to pay fr correct iotit and changes in copy, forms of blanks, rules, monthly ami quarterly returns etc., which could and should have been avoided by pro;?rly and ! carefully preparing his copy before placing itin the hands of tbe gtate printer. I further charee thai afierprepani tig a Urge ! number of blanks for quarterly and monthly returns he has discovered that they are so complex as to require an Increase of clerical force to tabulate the innumerable details oi said blank forms, and that he ha, siuce the adjournment ot the Board, asked for an estimate for a new set of blanks of this character, thereby admitting that those already prepared are not suited for the purposes for which he uetined them. "ine isoard oi tieaiiu, ai a regular meet ing, consented to the publication of the law creating the Board, and at the suggestion of Dr. Stevens consented to add in a condensed form the rules adopted by the Bard, for i he information of County lJoards, etc . with a definite understanding that it would cost but a small sum. not in excess of ii or $8. Dr. Stevens has exceeded the authority thus given, and has in the hands of the priuter a pamphlet containing matter no; contemplated or authorized by the Board, the estimated cost of which has reached the sura of $97, subject to additional charges and increase of cost it further changes are made y Dr. Stevens, a the work is not yet cum- c leted. Fully'one-third of this Mtiioiint as been caused by alterations and additions mane auer nis copy una been given to the State Printer. In short, the State has been comjelh'd to pay for 129J hours, or about two weeks, work for changes and alterations in blank, circulars, etc., which could have been avoided if ordinary care and attention ha 1 been used in the preparation of copy before placing it in the hands of the printer. "It will only be necessary lo refer to the fact fully proven at a recent meeting of your Board, that Dr. Stevens consented to and approved the ap(ointmentof two clerics, when only one was needed. Thus he entailed the expeuse of a called meeting of the lhard of Health and the necessary payment of $loG to settle the matter. I shall also be able to show that he furnished the State Printer two vouchers for the same bill of printing, viz. : Nos. 49 and 63." The charges contain many other specifica tions of minor importance, all of which will undoubtedly be investigated by the Com mittee at an early day. " Township Ticket. It is hoped that every admirer of right and iustice, will see to it that he does everything t- . - 1 T LI! 'l innis pow er to eiect ine jte-puuucau xown ship ticket. It can be seen at a mere glance that the chanres broucht acpJinst Messrs Harvey and Rau are the merest twaddle. Re spectable Democrats laugh at them. Bnt it is understood that the principle fight is being made by the Democracy for lrustee Ullitv, and it is said that they are willing to trade everything jn order to defeat Harvey. We be lieve we speak the tiuth when we say that there is not a colored man is the Township who will not vote and work for Capt. Harvey's election. He is all right on the school ques tion. He does not believe that little children should walk 3 or 4 miles to attend a colored school when there is a white school within a hundred yards of their home. This is more than can be said of some of his predecessors in office. Capt. Harvey has faithfully dis charged all the duties of his office and if he is defeated it will W bv white, and not colored Republicans. The Democracy can't defeat Ben. Rau, ann thev know it, so thev are mustering all their strength to Wat Harvey. But it will be the old, old 6tory. The Re publicans will win by a handsome majority. A Good Sized Will. The last will and testament of the late Stoughton A. Fletcher was Thursday filed in the Probate Department of the County Clerk's office. It is a lentgthy and carefully drawn document, complete to the minutest detail. To Stoughton J. he gives his inter est in Fletcher's Bank; to Allen M., all of his shares of stock in ' the Citizens' Gaslight Company, and to Mrs. Hyde and Mrs. Kitzinger, his daughters, a large amount of city property. His farm ing interests, consisting of abjut 7,000 acres ef MarioBjCounty land, are divided equally among his four children. The bank build ing and old homestead property fall to the lot of Stoughton J. To his widow be leaves $100,000 in trust during her lifetime and the Ludlow, Vt, real estate. He remembers his servant, Laura McDermott, by a bequest of $1,000. Francis M. Churchman is named as executor ot the will. The bequests to his daughters are life estates, not iu fee simple. A. W. Hendricks is named as trustee of $300,000, in which is included the -jlOO.OOO to his widow in case she should not elect to take her legal marital interest. The entire estate is estimated in value at $2,000.000. The bond of the executor has not yet been fixed, but will probably be $100.000. Of Course They'll Not Return. Something of a sensation was created at Butler University Thursday, at the close of the second term. It was caused by th startling announcement that if five of the students, who were going home, returned after the ten days' vacation they won Id be arrested and prosecuted under the libel law. A Wgus circular called "The Everest Regime" recently appeared in the College, and reflected severely upon certain members of the faculty. It had its origin in. the removal of the picture of the late President Burgess from the chap-1, which occurred last fall, and gave offense to some of the students. President Everest further an nounced that tbe . man who printed the paper was known, and a lawyer had been employed to prosecute him. It is not generally known who the five students are, and quite an ' uproar has been created. It' the College classes are five members short after vacation, which is quite likely, the laentny or tne autngrs win be reveaieu. Troiiel De'utl. At aWut 8 o'clock Mondav morning, Hon, Henry V. Harrington dropped dead in his law office in the Baldwin block. He left his home at about 7 o'clock, in apparent good health and on the way to his office met and conversed with several acquaintance's. Shortly after 8 o'clock his son Harry entered the office and found his father sitting at his desk dead. Judge Harrington, during most of his life was a prominent Democrat, and in 1872, represented the 3rd district in Con gress. Uunng the last Presidential campaign he was the Greenback candidate for Govtr- nor. For more than twentv years of his life, he was an immoderate drinker, but about four years ago he signed the Temperance pledge, and since that time Las been an ar dent worker for the Temperance cause.

NAH Fram-Ine Trtiut er' Kecovry From a Itrokeii Nerk. IS.ui 1'rnntlsco Chronicle. About five months ago the press published a fhort regarding . a teamster named Collery, who attempted to drive ids through a barn door, and in so doin daily item John team had his head forced down on his breast until his neck wa brokeu. Police Surgeon Stam baujih in nit' an examination of the injured hiaii. and found that, the seventh cervical vertebra was fractuied and that the spinal cord had been stretched nearly two inches, bo serious was the injury that the reporters, after chronicling the incdent under the head of fatal accidents paid no further attention to the matter, and failed to inquire after Col lery's condition, e nsidering him dead and bufi d. A Chronicle reporter was therefore exceedingly surprised yrMerday after noon to meet tbe supposed corpse near tie City Prison looking remarkably well for a man with a broken neck. In a conversation which ensued Mr. Collery stated that be was almost as weil as before the accident, a slielit s-tiirness in his right side constituting bis entire "unhealthiness."' After his removal from his home Collery states that he was laid fiat on his hick with a sort of fence about his neck and head which kept him immovable for over two months. Both the body of the vertsbne and the arching lumiiue were dis covered to be broken, ami the opera tion of joining them together without pmcniiig ine spinai coro wnere it tiad sag ged between the raided edges is described as one of the most diilicult ever performed. For a month the patient lay on his bacn. completely parallel in one-half of his body, and wiih but little feeling in the otb er. If he moved in the slightest decree elur- ing the tirst fortnight he could plainly feel the jagged edges of the bone grate together, and for hours after such an attempt he was con tent to lie on his hard bed without attempt ing to move a muscle for fear that the spinal cord should be crushed and his existence ended in a twinkling. The straightest posi tion attainable was required, and to this end Dr. Sambaugh was compelled to refuse him a mattress, forcing him to lie on a wide plank. Collery savs that before his eig'it, weeks of enforced quietness were ended he thought that board was made of adamant The niot dangerous time he experience! , he says, was one day when an attendant told him that a man whose neck could stand breaking as his had was not born to be banged. His desire to laugh was irresistible, and tbe shaking up his merriment gave him caused his fast enings to burst and the fracture came near being ruptu'ed afresh. During the first live weeks he did not move over a foot from his tirst posture. The paralysis has now almost entirely disappeared, and Dr. Stanibaugh yesterday promised him that he would be able to go to work within six months. The average fatality in cases of clearly defined fracture of the spine is estimated at iW in 1,000. Troubles of ft Preacher's Lire. IXewYorkSun.J Having disposed of a host of announce ments yesterday morning, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher cho-e for the subject of his sermon, "The Dilliculiies of Preachers." "There is so much said about preachers that perhaps it is worth while," he said, "for a preacher himself to ay something about tneiu. U looks an easy life as you see it on the sur face, but it is not so easy. You can take the man who toils hard day in and day out in a colliery, and maybe mourns his lot. lie looks at the minister, who is dressed in broadcloth, and whose only apparent duty is to preach for half an hour every Sunday, and live a luxurious life, and says: 'I'd like to be a minister myself, then I would know nothing of either work or trouble, have an easy life and go iound visiting my friends.' To all these I say that the life of a preacher is not all ease and conifort, and it certainly is not all laziness. They charge that preach ing is purely a mechanical art and has no influence upon the nerves of the preacher. Let me refer such skeptics to the lives of l)rs. Bushnell. Channinz and Robertson, of England. In delivering their renowned sermons to vast audiences it seemed to be to them an easy matter. But was it so? It was not; for the continuous labor knocked them down t'nie after time from sheer hard thinking and deep research. Brain work is much harder than muscular efforts. 'Then take into consideration the other duties of a preacher. Week by eekhe must subject himself to self denial, and very frequently he is compelled to make a continuous round of his parishioners where he sees nothing but want and misery, and yer, perchance, atter all, nis endeavors to bring comfort, the old, old verdict is the re sult: 'Oh, he's no good. I went to bear him once, but if you paid me I would not go agniii, for he is like the wheels of a cart that have not been greased there is no music in him.' " Ltughter "There is a sort of straihi-laced preach ing, though, which is culled sound preach ing. So it is, but it is all sound and nothiug else laughter, for such preachers go round . i i. . . i . i : . i iue wuoie system anu get mere once a year, and turn around and go over the same ground again, like stitching a new collar on an old garment. These men say they hear a call, but as the old Methodist minister would say, '1 don't hear it, but if there was a call, I believe it vas somebody else God called.' ' "The work of a Christian minister is to be upright, konorable, noble, and yet meek be. fore all men. He must throw otF all fear and determine what is true, and he it is who i must be the best judge of what is good for his people, and preach that doctrine. One of the noblest of the callings of God is that of the ministry, and, as I said in the begin ning, it is by no means an ea-v life, as nianv have attested, who, alle long years of trial, have failed in their calling." A Bostonian atu-nded a pra er-m,e ire and heard so man c nfessions of crime that ho concluded it was no place for him. He felt as though he needed better Eociety CONFIDENCE MEN, How Two Accomplished Swindlers Perpetrated an Old Qame and Fell Into the Hands of an EfQcient Officer. Thomas H. Coules, of West Virginia, ar- i rived in the city luesuay evening over the I., B. and W. Road en route from the West to Cincinnati. At the Union Depot he reort ed that he had been victimized on the train to the extent of $45. During the trip over the above-named road he made the acquaintance of a man who gives his name aa Harper. The latter bad u smooth tongue and had uo trouble in ingratiating himself into the confidence of the West Virginian. Just before reacning Indianap olis the men were interrupted in their con versation by ac individual who introduced himself as "Mr. Adams, re presenting the Adams Express Com piny," at the same time displaying a bu Ige of the corporation. He demanded M5of Harper in payment of exoressatre on certain goeds, and told him unless the same was paid be c-mld not obtain tbe goods when he reached this city. This placed Coules' new friend in the awkward position of not having suflicient money to satisfy the claim, so he offered the West Virginian a check for $750 to hold until he reached this city if he would kindly loan tim the amount. Mr. Coules generously gave him the mont-y, declining to take the check, and '"Mr. Adams" gave a receipt and retired from the car. When the tram came into the depot Harier was missing. OiBcer Wilde, to whom the story was told, soon learned the men had got off the train at the Kentucky avenue crossing Coules reluctantly consented to stay over night, and in company with the officer started in eearch of the men, the stranger keeping in the rear. After visiting several portions of the city. Officer Wilde finally saw two men going up Illinois street, near .uaritei, aim oecame couvinced they were the parties wanted. They were pointed out to Coules, who recognized them in such a manner as to cause them to run. Wilde soon caught them, however, and took them iaj iue ieiiirai oiauon, wuu tue aia ot a young man. They gave their names as Harper Granson and William Smith. Upon a 4 I.

Bismarck, March 22.A special from Mandon to the Tribune gives the following 'ctausoi tue railway disaster: Your cor lesjwHident accompanied Division Superin tendent Taylor to the scene of the wreck this morning, and the Coroner from Man don was ale o on board. The unlucky spot is about eleven miles west of Bismarck, at what is known as Soapstone Cut, on Sweet Briar Creek, and two miles east of Sweet Briar station. About 7:30 last evening a snow-piow, wcric or boarding train, and nassenger left Sweet Briar in the order named. The snow-plow passed safely over the ten-bent bridge which spans Sweet Briar creek, but the work train, which was composed of flat cars next to the engine, loiiowea Dy two sleeping cars for thirty men each, a dining car, kitchen car and stone car, did not. The first indi cation of something wrong was a sound like a broken wheel, ine train was goin at about ten to fifteen miles per hour, and the engineer, hearing the jar, immediately re- verseei steam. Dut De tore lie bad time to think, tne terrible crash came, and eight human souls were landed into eternity. A wheel on the head truck of a fiat car broke and the whole truck had jumped the track. Evidences of its course upon the tits ex tend back nearly a mile from tbe wreck, As the short curfe leading to the bridge was reached, the strain on the car was so grea .1 .1 A, 1 A , t . , iuai uie irucK must nave oeen Drosen in numerous pieces, some of the more tenacious striking the ties on the bridge and shoving them before it. The iron being left without support, the sleeping car was immediately precipitated into the river, thirty feet be low, striking on its side. This was followed by sleeping car No. 2, which careened over and finally assumed a similar position as Xo. 1. The dining car followed, crashing into both the others. After this was the kitchen car, which remained upright against a.. . i : : n. j tue ui mug utti. x uc ouice uuu store car was but partially off the track. Four bents in the bridge were broken into f-plinters and completely demolished, lhere were abou fifty men on the train at the time of the ac cident, and the escape of even one seems miraculous, after viewing this wreck. In sleeper rso. 1 were about twenty-four men some lying in their bunks asleep, others smoking and reading and some playing caras. As soon as the car overturned the bedding caught hre and the mangled and dying were roasted almost beyond recognition. The only deaths were among those in this car. Those who escaped immediately grappled such buckets as they could find and worked like heroes to extinguish the flames, but the straw beds, blankets and other combustible matter made it impossible. It is sup posed seven of the eight dead were killed instantly before being burned, as but the voice of one man crying "hilp" was heard. He was lving with his feet to the flames and held in broken pieces of timber. His comrades could do nothing and were obliged to ee him gradually roast to death Scattered here and there promiscuously among tne burned blankets, valises, cloth ing, broken car wheels and iron rods, were the charred remains of the unfortunate vic tims. One peculiar feature of the accident was that but two of the twenty-three in jured and not killed were seriously hurt. fbey had their shoulder blades dislocated and one of them bad a broken arm. Mete Green' Discovery. (Idaho Democrat. 1 Mete Green not long since, while out with his cattle, was riding along early in the morning on the divide between Indian Creek and Snake River, when his horse sprang aside, snorted, and otherwise gave evidence of having seen or heard something unusual. Mete saw a hole in the ground a a few paces distant. Dismounting, he was soon looking into a funnel-shaped orifice fifteen or twenty feet deep by ten or twelve ai its rim in diameter. At the bottom of thi funnel the soil giving out there was a rift in the rock two or three feet in width by four or five feet in length, which seemed to open into the very bowels of the earth. Through this aperture came up from the depths below a terrible roaring, as of a leat- iner cataract, a mi cht v rush of waters, turn bling over rocks. The ground trembled and the subterranean noise continued uninter ruptedly. And aa the fissure was large enough to take him in should his foot t-lip or head swim, his observation was not an extended one. In refusing to commute the sentence of a St. Louis murderer, the Governor of Missouri says: "I have not one particle of sympathy for the murderers of women, who, after the cowardly deed, shrink behind the cotvard'8 plea of insanity and plead for mercy. Thev should remember that the law was not made for mercy, but punishment, and that, having had no mercy toward their victims, they have no right to ask for such from the ex ecutors of the law."
