FLOUR and FEED. Columbus. Iud.. July 23.-A riot to wreck the new threshing outfit of Arian Ileilman, who lives one mile north of Hope, in this county, was dis covered when he started to thresh on the Samuel Snyder farm, between Hope and Old St. Louis. Men at work In the fields noticed that many of the wheat shocks were unusually heavy. On investigation they found a number of stones in each shock. It evidently was the intention tu have the wheat containing these stones passed into the separator and ruin the machine. Work Was Jielibernte Devilty. Injury to the workmen probably would have resulted also. Some of the stones were almost as large as a man's head and were so heavy that they dropped out when the shocks were moved. Other stones were carefully tied in the shocks of wheat, so that moving the shocks would not dislodge them. The farmers in that part of the county are indignant. Ileilman says he has no idea who put the stones in the wheat and does not know of an enemy in the world. Burglars Work: for Nothing. Lafayette. Ind.. July 23.

Sheridan, Iud., July 23. Mrs. Frank Galliher, a bride of six months, is dead as the result of a high wire performer falling on her during a street fair ex hibition.
