J. H. Betts A Co. NOTABLE TRANSFER OF INDIANA PRISONERS. l.Frotn 1 bo Brenmu (hid.) Enquirer. Probably the largest transfer of prisoners that, ever took place in this country was successfully car¬ ried out last Tuesday. Two hun¬ dred and ninety-one convicts from the Michigan City prison were put on a special Monon and taken to Jeffersonville, while from Jef¬ ferson viile.SOD convicts were taken to Michigan City. Tuesday At, four o’clock morn¬ ing the real work of the transfer began. Ten selected guards as¬ sisted the blacksmiths in riveting the shackles on the prisoners. Two at a time they were taken from their cells and their legs shackled. About two hours was consumed in this, and then the prisoners were taken to the din¬ ing-room, where breakfast was served. While this was going on the train which was to convey the prisoners to Jeffersonville was backed into the north gate. It consisted of nine cars, the first coach a hospital car, the next six for the convicts, one car for the militia, company V, of Indian¬ apolis, whose members were to as¬ sist in guarding the prisoners, and one for the press. As soon as breakfast, was finished the men were lined up and marched to the train. Three guards and two trusties were locked in each ear. Every precaution had been observed against an outbreak. The win¬ dows were not barred, but every¬ thing that might, be used as a weapon bad been removed, even the doors from the water closets and the air brake apparatus taken away. Orders had been given to shoot at the first bead that was poked out of a window. At, nine o'clock the start was made. Every foot of track between Michigan City and Jeffersonville was apested fifteen minutes before the train passed. Even t-lie switches were spiked and the trains given the right of way over everything. No stops were made for crossings. The trip from one end of the State to the other, a distance of 2t53 miles, was made in eight, hours without an accident,. When the train started on its journey across the State the con¬ victs were given permission converse converse with wnn each lai n other uiur, Sand- aim witches ami water were served for refreshments en rnme. The toilet-room doors had been re- moved and bell cords pulled out.

An Ohio contemporary having thoughtlessly remarked that it takes money to run a newspaper, n te editor of the Saguache (Col.)

When you «»« with money watch him. Hell be paying bills and disgracing his profession. Never monev to an editor. Make him trade itout. He likes to swap. Then when you die, after having stood around for years and sneer¬ ing at the editor and his jim crow paper, be sure and have your wile send in for three extra copies by one of your weeping children, and when she reads the generous and touching notice about you, forewarn her to neglect to send fifteen cents to the editor. It would overwhelm him. “Money is a corrupting thing. The editor knows it, and what lie wants is your heartfelt thanks. Then he can thank the printers, and they can thank their grocers. Take your job work to the job olfice, and then come and ask tor half rates for church notices. “The Lord loves the cheerful giver. He’ll take care of all the editors. Don’t worry about the editor. He has a charter from the State to act as a doormat .for the community. He’ll get the paper out somehow; aud up for you when you run for ollice, and lie about your pigeon-toed daugh¬ ters lackey wedding, and blow about, your big-footed sous when they get a $4 per week job, and weep over your shriveled soul when it is released from your grasping body, and smile at your giddy wife’s second marriage, He’ll get along.
