San Francisco, June 12.—The scientific ex pedition sent out by the government in March last to observe the total eclipse of the sun at Caroline Island, in the south Pacific, has returned to this city. Professor Edward 8. Holden, of the Washburn observatory, of Madison. Wis., in charge of the party, re ports that the weather oir the day of the eclipse was perfect for observing purposes, and the result is a great success.* Several good photographs of the corona and spec trum were obtained. The supposed planet Vulcan could not be found. The party ar rived home in good health. It will be re membered that this expedition went from New York to Lima, Peru, and thence for a voyage some weeks in the United States sloop Hartford to Caroline Island to see the eclipse of May 6, 1883, having a totality of six minutes. Embr.vo Heroes Let Loose at West Point. Newburg, N. Y., June 12.—The annual ex ercises at West Point concluded to-dav, when the graduating class of ’B3 received their diplomas. The diplomas were banded the cadets by Secretary Lincoln, who made brief remarks to each. General Terry made the annual address. His reference to Grant and Sherman were loudly applauded. Rear Ad miral Rodgers also made an address, and speeches by Secretary Lincoln and General Sherman. The latter urged the graduates to attend closelv to the duties of their profes sion and trust the government and country, ami trust God for an opportunity, and they might become heroes as others had. He said this would probably be the last time he would speak to them, as in a few months fie would retire. Archbishop Purqell. Cincinnati, June 12. The Rt. Rev. Bishop Fitzgerald, of Little Rock, Ark., and Rev. W. J. Halley, of the Cathedral, visited his Grace Archbishop Purcell, on Monday, at the Ursuline Convent, Brown county. Father Halley stated to a reporter that the Arch bishop was in unusually good health, better, in fact, than he has been for the past two years. He recognized both the Bishop and Father Halley, and smiled when they shook hands with him. He endeavored to speak, but his articulation, was so poor that he could not be understood. He eats and sleeps well, and seems to enjoy himself in the com pany of those who are making the declining years of his life as pleasant as possible. Amasa Stone's Bequests Settled. Cleveland. June 12. —The heirs under the provisions of the Amasa Stone will were paid their bequests on Saturday. The property of the deceased will realize at least $6,000,- 000, outside of the losses in iron and steel channels. The extra SIOO,OOO left condition ally by Mr. Stone to Adalbert College if the estate realized $3,500,000 will consequently be safe for the college. The payments were made very early, but it is said that the ex ecutors found money accumulated on every hand only ready to be taken in. All the investments of Mr. Stone are especially good ones.

THE NEXT GREAT CONTEST Gossip and Guesses as to the Candi dates of the Leading Parties, The Editor of the Louisville Courier- Journal Visits Mr. Tilden at the Latter’s Residence at Greystoue, And Announces that the Cipherer Will Not Bea Candidate. On the Contrary, the New York World Has Information that the Sage Is Seeking the Nomination. MR. TILDEN. Mr. Watteraon Declares He Could Not Be In duced to Accept a Nomination. Louisville, June 12.— Hon. Henry Watter son, editor of the Courier-Journal, recently visited Mr. Tilden at Greystone, and will print the following in his paper to-morrow I have been spending a few days at Grey stone with Governor Tilden, and not merely because his old friends in the West and South have an ever-present personal interest in him, but because his name is at the moment upon the lips of politicians of every class all over the country, I propose to give the readers of the Courier-Journal some particu lar account of him. When I parted from him, a year ago, 1 never expected to see him again. Indeed, I was so skeptical of the stories concerning his restoration to health as to feel a delicacy about intruding upon his privacy. He was good enough to send for me, and I went over to Gramercy Park in a somewhat sorrowful, sym pathetic state of mind. My surprise almost exceeded my gratification. The old house is undergoing reconstruction and en largement on a magnificent seal# l but the old library is still the same, being held from the hand of the workman for the last, I take it, as a tribute of affectionate remembrance of old times, old friends and old books. There I found the Governor. If an apparition had stood before me I could not have been more astonished. The days of ’75, ’76 and ’77 seemed to have come back—his low voice was found again; his eyes were bright and his cheeks rosy; his intellect as sinewy and clear, and his wit as incisive as they were when he made nothing of riding Blackstone to Har lem and back or driving the Kentucky bays from Gramercy Park to Greystone. He took me all over the new house, pointing out the various changes, explaining his gen eral design, and discussing architecture and architects with characteristic intelligence. He quite tired me out—a favorite and malev olent way lie has of punishing his friends, climbing long stairs, meandering through labyrinths of decorative art, and threading the tapestried and frescoed mazes of corridor and chamber. On current affairs he talked with his usual pungency and candor. When endurance had ceased to be a virtue, I said: “Governor, don’t you think we have had enough of this?” He smiled, and in Ids dry, half pitying, half sarcastic way, replied, “If you are tired, we will go down stairs.” At Greystone his life is of the simplest and busiest. He has a farm hard by, and no end of pigs, poultry and blooded stock. Os course, I had to be dragged over this farm, and the devices which the old gentleman put slyly forth to trap me into some nnguaraed “trea son to the butter and eggs of my blue-grass country” were many and ingenious. I stood my ground like a hero, but it must be owned that she Governor’s farming is, like every thing he undertakes, thoroughly well done. I asked him whether he tried to make any money out of it. “Oh no,” he said; “it is made some other way.” While I was at Grej'stone not so much as the shadow or the ghost of a politician crossed the threshhold or appeared upon the grounds. Surrounded by his nieces and his books, the old statesman and philosopher was as unreserved in his conversation as he was and always is simple and cordial in his hospitality. One of the young ladi< told me that the little household had got through over 200 volumes during the last winter. The Gov ernor is a voracious and versatile reader, no less than an attentive and wise observer of affairs, and we talked of every thing, from Thomas a Kempis to Thomas A. Hendricks. He playlulty observed that the chief objections lie had heard to the elec tion of Mr. Carlisle to the speakership was that in some recent volumes, published by one Mr. Froude, there was a suspicion that he had mistreated his wife. Here I must stop. I know that the pub lic is most curious to learn what are Mr. Tilden’s views of the political affairs, current and prospective. I have little doubt that, had I the right to speak, I could by faithfully reporting him, make myself at once enter taining and instructive; but the opinions of every man are his own, and his house is sacred. I never knew a man more entirely frank in his intercourse with his friends than this sage of Greystone. But I am not his mouthpiece, and it is not for me to come all the way from Kentucky to New York to do that which he is so much better able to do for himself. I can say, however, for myself, that nothing passed which leads rue to modify the opinion I have so often ex pressed, that no power on earth could induce him to accept the presidency. Mr. Tilden Busily Laying Pipes to Secure the Democratic Nomination. Albany Special to New York World. The trip of Mr. Manning, the chairman of the State convention, to New York and his interview in the Sun about Mr. Tilden and the convention of 1880 turns out not to have been the accidental affair that it was an nounced. A member of the State committee who lias been let into the secret informs me tha the sending of the interview was all ar ranged at Greystone, and that it was put out as a cover to plans being arranged for the fall as a preliminary to 1884. The same per son states that “Mr. Manning had two or three consultations with Mr. Tilden at Greystone and Gramercv Park, and that the programme for "this year was all mapped out while there. The result is that some of the politicians who have acted as couriers in the past for Mr. Tilden were sent for and requested to commence their work again as on former occasions. The Manning interview was all an arranged ruse to throw the politicians off the scent until Mr. Tilden’s agents get their work in. I tell you the plans are all made. The politicians, outside ot the few in the scent, don’t believe that Mr, Tilden is a candidate, but I have positive evidence that he is. I obtained my information from one of Mr. Tilden’s old workers, has been pent for and requested to go to Greystone and receive his instruc tions. What that particular person did when he received that request, or what he INDIANAPOLIS, WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 13, 1883. proposes to do, T am not at liberty to reveal That much of the affair I am pledged to keep a secret, nor am I at liberty to give his name, i but he is a man who has always secured dele- gates from his section whenever Mr. Tilden 1 or his friends asked him, and has helped to secure them from other sections as well.” The correspondent of the World then adds: “The foregoing is the main point and substance of a conversation had to-day with a politician who has been for eight years at least an active worker in the Tilden forces —one of the captains in the ranks. He has in the past known what was going on among the Tilden Democrats. If he is mistaken now it is the first time he lias been as to the plans of that interest for eight years. That Mr. Tilden is actually a candidate for 1884 will be news to many, and may account for the sudden talk that has sprung up in the West about the old ticket.” HENDRICKS AND M’DONALD. New Facts Concerning; the Struggle at Cin cinnati Three Years Ago. Evansville Courier'Pern.) it looks as luougli Thomas A. Hendricks did not Intend tlmt the next Democratic candidate for President should come from Indiana.—New York Sun. The interview with Mr. Hendricks that was published in the Wabash Courier, more than a week ago, must be accepted as the true ex pression of his feeling in regard to the next presidential nomination. To the surprise, not to say the indignation, of his friends, Mr. j Hendricks has avowed himself willing to ac cept an honor in 1884, which he temporized with in 1876, and which he absolutely de clined in 1880. At the conventioaof the lat ter year the Indiana delegation stood by Mr. Hendricks, although it was clear that he had no chance whatever for the nomination for the presidency. With the excep tion of two or three delegates from lowa, a Republican State, he had not a, single vote in the convention outside of In- diana. Yet the hurrah for him was so strong and so loud in the Indiana delegation that the opportunity of nominating Mr. McDon- aid was entirety disregarded. It was treason at Cincinnati to say a word in favor of Mc- Donald. It mattered not that the nomina tion for the presidency was presented to him from hundreds of sources, and in the most tempting forms. The Southern delegations were unanimously in his favor, and it is not stretching the truth of history to say that had it not been for the sentimental alle giance of the Indiana delegation to Mr. Hendricks, Mr. McDonald would have been nominated at that conven tion. On the night before Hancock was nominated, when every possible chance for Hendricks was gone, a committee con sisting of M. E. Ingalls, B. C. Shaw, ex-treas urer of State, and another Democrat, whose name the Courier does not now remember, went from Cincinnati to Indianapolis on a special train, Mr. Ingalls being the president j of the railroad, to lay the exact condition of j affairs at Cincinnati before Mr. Hendricks. That committee informed him that his 1 nomination was simply impossible, but that McDonald would be the choice of the con vention if lie would but say the word. For some unaccountable reason Mr. Hendricks declined to consent to the withdrawal of his name, and the consequence was that Hancock was nominated because McDonald refused to be a candidate without the consent of Hendricks. These facts are well known to Indianians who were present at the convention. It would be idle now' to suggest what might have been the result of the presidential campaign of 1880 if McDonald had been the candidal*-, Indiana was then an October State, and it is fairly reasonable to claim that the Democrats would have carried it in that month if Mc- Donald had been the presidential candidate. Although Mr. Hendricks had been the favorite of the party, it cannot be said, even by his most enthusiastic friends, that his nomination was essential to Democratic suc cess. Much as the party loved him, it also loved McDonald, and the nomi nation of the latier for the presidency would have inspired the Democracy of Indi ana to the same enthusiastic effort that would have been witnessed had Hendricks been the nominee. The Courier lias always been the steadfast friend of Governor Hendricks, but it is also the steadfast friend of Joe. McDon ald. The possibility of Hendricks’s advance ment has gone, and we regret the fact. But his willingness to see McDonald sacrificed, especially after the loyalty which the latter has shown to him, indicates a degree of ego tiem and selfishness that is at once a surprise and grief to his friends. As the Democracy of Indiana followed the fortunes of Hendricks at St. Louis and Cincinnati, they will rally to the standard of McDonald at the next national convention. We have respected the honor of the nomination for the vice-presidency, which has been con ferred upon the State by the conventions of 1876 and 1880. It would be folly now to speculate as to what might have been the result if an Indiana candidate for the presi dency had been chosen at either of these conventions. But Mr. Hendricks may as well understand first as last that the Indiana Democracy will follow his flag no longer. The party has loved him, and loves him yet, but he ought to see that the Democracy of the country does not want him for its candi date. If he cares anything for the respect of the friends who have stood by him in years past he will join with tnem now in advanc ing the cause of the only man in Indiana who has a chance before the next national Democratic convention. That.man is Joe McDonald. THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION. President Arthur the Republican of Whom Senator Beck In Afraid. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, June 12, —Senator Beck said, this morning, in the presence of a party of friends, that the mysterious man referred to by him in the New York interview as the most dangerous the Democrats could fight in 1884 for President, was Chester A. Arthur. Senator Beck has lately become an enthusi astic admirer of the President. Washington Special to Chicago Herald. In an interview, the other day, Senator Beck said he was afraid there was one Re publican who would be successful in the next presidential campaign, if his party had sense enough to recognize his merits and nominate him. Beck arrived here to-day. He was tackled at once by the correspond ents and politicians. They wanted to know which Republican of prominence lie referred to. Beck dodged the question. “I may have made a mistake,” said he, “in throwing out a hint of that kind. I will say nothing ex cept that there is such a person. You can make as shrewd a guess as you are able to make as to whom I meant.” The guessers are at work to-night. The shrewdest of them are of the opinion that the Kentucky Sen ator has Arthur in his mind. Said one of them: “Arthur is coming quietly to the front. He has repeatedly said he is not a candidate. But he is, and he is working in the most skillful manner for the nomina tion. The chances are good for his getting it. His boom will be started in good season. It will be engineered with the greatest skill. Every effort is being put forth for reconcil iation in the Republican ranks. Arthur lias the means to bring the factions to terms. Ha will use them, and, by reason of nis using them judiciously, he will be the banner leader in 1884.”, BEGINNING OF THE END. The Stubbornly Contested Star-Itoute Trial Drawing to a Close. Judge Wylie’s Statement of the Legal Points luvolved—A Charge Containing Small Consolation for the Defense, The Indictment Found To Be Faulty, But Not to a Serious Extent. Every Effort To Be Used to Secure a Verdict —A Record of More than Four Million Words. JUDGE WYLIE’S CHARGE. Statement of the Legal Points Involved in the Star-Route Case. Washington, June 12.—Judge Wylie began his charge to the star-route jury this after noon. After thanking the jurymen for their patient attention during the many months iof the trial and reminding them that they had nothing to do with public demand, newspaper articles or appeals to sympathy, but must decide the case upon the evidence, he at once commenced to state the legal points involved, and said, in part: The policy of the law must be found in itself. No public officer had any right to set up bis own policy against the policy of the law. He held a great trust; it was his duty to obey the law. To allow him to set up his policy against the law would lead to great and innumerable abuses. But the mere vio lation of law by a public officer was not necessarily a crime. He might mis understand his duty; he might be guided by an intention to do public good. These remarks were intended to apply to General Brady, to whom the law said that in making increases in service he must pay due regard to productiveness and other circum stances. It hardly seemed reasonable or fair for Brady to say that he disregarded produc tiveness. That was the policy of a present Cabinet officer—a witness in this case—but 1 the court could not sanction that policy, j The law prohibited any public officer from 1 expending public money or making con tracts for expenditures beyond the appropria tion. In this case there was evidence that all money appropriated by Congress for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1880, had been expended by December, 1879, and an appeal had been made to Congress to sup ply the deficiency. All that might have been done from a mistaken sense of duty or an exaggregated idea of public good. Men in such positions occasionally beconie enthu siastic on that subject, and if there was no corrupt motive it was no criminal act. The Judge next took up the question of conspiracy. A conspiracy, lie said, was charged to be a combination of intelligent beings to defraud the United States by fraud in affidavits, petitions and orders. The stat ute of limitations covered with its protection all crimes committed more than three years prior to the finding of the indictment, which was delivered in court on May 20, 1882. The jury could not find a verdict of guilty against the defendants for anything done prior to May 20, 1879. If convicted, it must be for what they had done since that date. [Note. —Some of tiie most important evi dence in the case related to occurrences pre vious to May 20, 1879.] In establishing a conspiracy all the facts in the case tending to a different conclusion from the ma jority of the evidence must be considered, but due regard must be given to the weight of evidence. The jury must infer from all the facts whether or not there was a con spiracy. SUFFICIENCY OF THE INDICTMENT. Judge Wylie then commented upon the attacks made upon the sufficiency o* the in dictment. He reviewed the evidence touching the beginning of the combination. Benator Dorsey, he 83id, seemed to exert the controll ing influence over everybody in that busi ness. He corrected their estimates and changed their bids. Being in the Senate, lie could not become a contractor, so Miner was brought here, and, with Peck and John Dor sey, secured 130 routes. Bidding separately, they were mutually interested in the bids. Here was a community of interest. Although not a bidder. Senator Dorsey seemed to be the most active man. not only in preparing bids, but in carrying out the contracts. If lie had a sinister ami unlawful purpose lie was as guilty as if he had a contract. It was a matter of no consequence why he did these tilings—whether from love for his brother ami brother-in-law or from self-in terest, There was evidence of what Miner, Vaile and John Dorsey did during the sqgpeeding period. It was for the jury to say whether they had a corrupt purpose. If they were satisfied it was a fraudulent combination, then that made out its character anterior to the period fixed by the statute of limitation. Immediately upon S. W. Dorsey’s retiring from the Senate be took an active interest in the business, and an entirely new organiza tion was effected. The jury must determine whether Peck and John W. Dorsey, who then stepped out, were men of straw, and S. W. Dorsey the substance. The govern ment claimed that Peck and John Dorsey still remained in the combination, because they continued to make affidavits—they held contracts in their own names. 8. W. Dorsey and Vaile, who held no con tracts in their names, were unable to make affidavits, and the old parties remained in for the purpose of carrying on the business. If it was lawful business, then it was all right. If Peck and John Dorsey knew it to be an unlawful combination, with criminal purposes, yet agreed to further its objects, tlien their going out did not relieve them from the conspiracy. That conspiracy did not depend upon the contracts. A per son might remain in a conspiracy although he had parted with his interest in tlie con tracts. The indictments so alleged, but that was dangerous and was regarded a surplus age. If, in fact, the evidence was to the con trary, then everything depended upon the character of the combination at that day, be fore the 20th of May, 1879. whether unlawful or not If the combination ceased after the 20th of May, 1879. there was no evidence of it and in absence of any proof of its dissolution the jury would have the right to presume that the organization formed in April, 1879, continued after the statute of limitations ceased to protect The jury must judge of the character of the association after that time by its antecedent history. AN OVERT ACT MUST RE PROVED. But it was not enough to find the existence of a conspiracy. They must find an overt act, committed by someone of the defend ants, after the 20th of May. 1879. Difficulty arose at that point, and most of the alleged fraudulent petitions—and they bore that ap pearance upon their face—were filed before the date spoken of. On route No. 34,149 a false petition was charged to have been filed July 10. 1879, but the evidence was that it was filed April 3, 1879, and it seemed that it was barred by the statute. But here another question arose, whether the parties interested in pro curing the order in using the false petition filed April 3, 1879, to secure the order of July 10, 1879, had not committed an act in pursuance of the conspiracy. There was a statute bearing on that subject, and he should hold to the proposition that a party availing of a false paper to secure an order on a certain day would not be protected by the fact that it had beeu filed before that day. Judge Wylie then enumerated other pa pers corresponding in character to that al ready commented upon. He believed there was not a single instance where papers were filed within the statute of limitations. Mr. Biiss interrupted to say that the affi davit on route No. 41,119 was clearly within that period, but Mr. Ingersoll declared that the description of tne paper was fatally defective. Judge Wylie then turned to the indict ment. He said he was not disposed to at tach any weight to the averments that there w’ere fraudulent sub-contracts, for they amounted to nothing; he could not see how they resulted in loss to the government. An indictment should set out any overt act as having been done in pursuance of the con spiracy. and f'erhaps this indictment was de fective in that respect; but that fault was cured by section 1,025 of the statutes. For more than a year the indictment had been under constant fire, exposed to demurrers and to every species of attack which the in genuity of able counsel could devise, but that fault had never been mentioned. The indictment was defective throughout in that way. It charged Brady’s orders with being fraudulent without alleging that they were made in pursuanceof the conspiracy, but the same statute cured that defect, and he would hold the indictment sufficient as against the defendants, including Brady. Judge Wylie then turned to the printed prayers and commented upon those not al ready disposed of in his preceding remarks. Touching the amount of credence to ue given Rerdell’s testimony, Judge Wylie said it was not to be discredited because ft was that of an accomplice, if it was corroborated by other witnesses and sustained by the mate rial theory and aspect of the case. In con sidering the testimony given by the defend ants the jury must make allowance for the temptation to which they were exposed. He could not grant the government’s prayer that the jury be directed to regard as a cir cumstance tending to prove guilt the refusal of the defense to produce books and other written evidence upon nolice. That was not law. It did not allow unfavorable inference to be drawn from such refusal, but it allowed the prosecution to give secondary evidence, and it was good for all if it could fairly prove, and could not afterwards be im peached or contradicted. The court thought the jury could find any other defendant guilty of conspiracy with Rerdell. Os the failure to call Bosler and Williamson, the court said the jury was at liberty to draw inferences if they believed that those witnesses could have given im portant evidence. This disposed of the prayers for the prosecution. THE PRAYERS FOR TIIE DEFENSE. Judge Wylie then proceeded to answer such praj’ers of the defense as were desig nated by that side. The jury was instructed that it was their duty to find that there was no conspiracy, if the facts proven could be accounted for by any reasonable hypothesis in no sense based upon the evi dence. A large number of prayers attack ing the indictment upon the ground that it had been drafted under an improper stat ute and complaining of erroneous descrip tion of papers were refused. The ninety ninth prayer, admitting the right of the jury to disregard the entire testimony of a witness who knowingly swears falsely on a material point, was allowed. The nineteenth prayer, clothing the defense with the pre sumption that it was in no sense guilty un til proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt was allowed. Many of the remaining pray ers for the defense were refused and the re mainder withdrawn. A number of exceptions to the charge were noted by the counsel for the defense. At Mr. Bliss’s suggestion, the jury were instructed that they might find conspiracy between Peck and one of the defendants. The foreman asked that the jury he furnished with a copy of the charge, but Judge Wilev smilingly said that it was "all in the air:” he had no record of it. If the jury were at a loss in regard to any point of law the court, upon their application, would relieve them. A bailiff was then sworn to take charge of the jury, a copy of the indictment was given to the jury, and they retired. The court then took a recess until 10o’clock to-morrow morning, with the understanding that if the jury arrived at a verdict before 10 o’clock to-night the court will reassemble to receive it, THE JURY. A Verdict Not Expected for Several Days— Discussion Not Yet Heguu. Special to tiie Inulanapollfl Journal. Washington, June 12.—The star-route jury retired much as other juries retire, that is to say, the jurors got up and walked out in charge of a bailiff. From the moment they left the court until 10 o’clock they re mained in imprisonment, and subsequent to that hour they were as isolated from com munication from the outer world as if they were on a desert island. Various sensational rumors were afloat in regard to jury bribing and the like, and the wiseacres were numerous who knew exactly what the verdict was going to be. In point of fact, the jurors themselves haven’t the remotest idea what the verdict is going to be—officially— that is, they did not begin the consideration of the case to-night. Up to 11 o’clock they had done nothing except to gossip and sing songs. Two or three of them expressed a de sire for a pack of cards, and the pasteboards not being forthcoming, they fell to chanting “Wait till the clouds roll by,” and other cheerful melodies. Any stories that may be Afloat in regard to agreement on a verdict at this stage are the sheerest fabrica tion. No verdict has been reached, and, as frOoutlnued on Second Page.) PRICE FIVE CENTS. CROOK AND TIIE APACHES. First Official Statement an to the Ro- Bult of the Expedition. After a March of Great Hardship, General Crook Succeed* in Capturing tiie Apache Stronghold, Nine Indians Killed and Nearly Four Hundred Prisoners Taken. Crook Accomplishes His Purpose Without Losing a Man—A Sketch of General Gallardo’s Campaign. CROOK’S RETURN. An Account of the Capture of the Indian Stronghold with Plunder. Tucson, A. TANARUS., June 12.—A courier arrived at Tombstone last night from Crook’s bead quarters at Silver Creek, Arizona, bringing the first official information of Crook’s ex pedition. It left American soil on the 3d of May, marching 200 miles southeast from San Bernardino on the boundary line of Chihua hua and Sonora, following the trail of the hostiles. Crook was guided by the Apache, Nadakis, who was captured near San Carlos, just previous to the expedition leaving. At a point about 200 miles south of the line the command crossed the Sierra Madres range, and advanced fifty miles over an indescriba bly rough tract, eight mules being killed by falling over precipices, and pressed on without delay. ‘The men were rendered nearly barefooted by the sharp rocks. After fourteen days’ hard marching, night and day, the Indian camps at Cbato and Bonito were discovered in the heart of the Sierra Madres in an almost impregnable position. The Apaches did not dream of an attack, for the entrance to the stronghold was next to impassable, and the warriors were princi pally out on a raid under Juh, only thirty seven bucks being in the camp with women and children. The San Carlos scouts, under Captain Crawford and Lieutenants Atvaod and Mackey, with Al. Sebree, Mclntosh and Mickey Free, chiefs of the scouts, surround ed the camp before the hostiles were aware of their proximity, and advanced from differ ent points and were near enough before they were discovered. The scouts secreted them selves behind rocks and commenced firing upon the camp, creating a perfect panic. A number succeeded in escaping, though nearly all surrendered. Nine were found dead in the camp; five Mexican women and a little girl were recaptured. They were taken from Carmen and Chihuahua and are now with Crook in good health. Everything in the camp was burned or carried off by scouts. Among the property captured were 100 ponies and mules, forty being loaded with plunder—saddles, girdles, clothes, gold and silver watches, and several thousand dol lars in gold, silver and greenbacks—showing that they had been very successful in their raids. After the fight most of those who escaped came in. Altogether 383 prisoners were taken. The chiefs captured were Chato, Bonito, Geronimo, Nachez, Loco, and Kama. The two latter were long reported dead The chiefs say an American boy. six years old, captured a month ago in New Mexico, is with the squaws in the mountains. He is, no doubt, Charley McComas. Runners were sent out, and he is expected in hourly. After the fight the command, with the prisoners, marched leisurely back to the American side, and the entire command, with the prisoners, is now encamped on Silver creek, about sixty miles south of Tombstone. Not one of Crook’s command was lost during the campaign. The courier states that the reason Crook remains at Silver Creek is that he is awaiting news from the Secretary of War as to what disposition is to be made of the Indians, as Wilcox, agent at San Carlos, refused to receive them, and that he will go back to the Sierra Madres after the rest of the hostiles if they do not come ip. In conversation with the courier, he stated that the hostiles bad plenty of money. One old squaw, who was the possessor of three $5 bills, made inquiry of someone at Colonel Biddle’s as to the value of her possessions. Upon being informed that the notes were lor $5 each, she grunted, and decided to nego tiate, and pointed with her skinny finger to the naught after the “5” on each note. Quite a number of bucks bad silver stars and other ornaments beaten out of Mexicau dollars on their head gear, and several of them American double eagles, made into necklaces. A rough estimate of the amount of wealth among them is fully $5,000, and probably more. SCENE OF TIIE CAPTURE. The troops and packers of the command state that the place where the capture oc curred is the prettiest spot on earth, and the road to it rougher than mortal man ever trod. Large numbers of hostiles seem pleased with the situation, evidently expecting an immediate return to the fiesispots of Ban Car los. The only complaint comes from some of the squaws, whose bucks are among those who made their escane. The’officers who were with the expedition state that Crook had surrounded the Indians before they knew of his presence; that if he had not done so it would have taken six months and all the men in Arizona to have gotten them. As an illustration of Crook’s modesty and total absence of fuss and feathers in his make-up, it may be stated that although the light ami capture occurred on the 17th of last month, he leisurely re traced his steps to the camp of sup ply at Silver Creek, not sending a courier ahead to signal his movements. The first intimation had of Crook’s return was the arrival of a lieutenant at Colonel Biddle's headquarters at 8 o’clock on Sunday fore noon. with dispatches for Camp Bowie, the nearest army telegraph station. Upon mak ing inquiry concerning the General, who was supposed to he 100 miles distant in the Kierra Madres, imagine the surprise that! awaited the camp when informed that Crook was only two Hours behind, with the cap tured Apaches. At about 10 o’clock the General rode into camp with his escort, and greeted Colonel Biddle with, “Nice morning. Colonel!” and straightway struck out for the wash-basin, which he had spied, and was soon engaged in performing nis ablutions, after which he threw himself into a camp stool and engaged in conversation about h'<i campaign iu an off-handed way, ns if hunting

Sax Francisco, June 12. —The following dispatch from General Crook was received at military headquarters this afternoon: “SilvkkYrf.ek. A. T.. June 12.—1 left here May Ist, with 193 Apache scouts, under Crawford. Gotwood and Mackey, with Chaffee’s company of forty-two men and sixty cavalry. I took rations for two months on mules. 1 followed the hostiles into a country of indescribable roughness. A num ber of mules lost their footing, stepping from the trail, and. falling down the precipices, were killed. The stronghold of the Chiraca lias’s was in the very heart of the Sierra Mad res. The position was finely watered, with a den.i4 growth of timber and plenty of grass. They had been camped near the head of the Banispe, occupying prominent elevated peaks affording a fine lookout for miles, rendering surprise almost impossible, and making their retreats secure through the rough adjacent canons. Captain Crawford, with the Indian scouts, early on the morning of May 15, surprised the village of Chala, the chief who led the recent raid into Arizona and New Mexico. The fight lasted all day, and the village was wiped out. The damage done cannot be es timated. A number of dead bodies were found, but the indescribable roughness of the country prevented a count being made. The entire camp, with the stock and every thing belonging to it. was captured. It is iearneu from the prisoners taken that the Chirueahuas are unanimous for peace.and had already sent two messengers to try to reach San Carlos. On the 17th they began to surrender. They said their people were much frightened by our appearance in their fastnesses, and hud scattered like quails. They asked me to remain until they could gather all the bands together, when they would go back to the reservation. By the terms of the treaty, my operations were limited to the time of the fight. I told the Cliiracahuas to gather up their women and children without delay. They answered that they could not get them to re spond to their signals, the fugitives fearing they might be beset by our Apache scouts, who would entrap them. They told us they bad a white bov who was in the village, jumped by our scouts. *He bad run off with the squaws who escaped, and who had not yet been heard from. They assured mo that every one of the band should come in if I would remain a short time. The terms of the treaty embarrassed me greatly, and being in that rough region, with rations rapidly disappearing, there be ing between 300 and 4‘>o Chiracahnas to feed, I was compelled to return with the Chiraca liuas. We found six Mexican captives, five women and one child, taken at Chihuahua early in May. They are now’ with the command. These women say they were captured nenr the Mexican Central railroad, ut a place called Carmen. They further state that when the Chiracahnas discovered that the Apache scouts were in the country they became greatly alarmed, und abandoned on the trail the 300 head of cattle they were driving away from points in western Chihuahua. The cattle were afterward picked up and driven off by a body of Mexicans. We marched back as rapidly as the condi tion of our stock and strength of the women and children would permit. I found the country depopulated for a distance of 100 miles from the Apache stronghold. The Chi ra cal mas insist that they have always lived in the Sierra Madres. that even when the main body went on the reservation some remained behind in the mountains. Os those who went out there are a number who Mate Uv.it they had never been on the reservation. I have strong hopes of being able to clear the mountains of the last. Os those now with us are Loco and Nana, so often reported killed, and the fami lies of other prominent chiefs. I saw no Mex ican troops, and after leaving the settlements in northeast Sonora did not see a Mexican other than the captives rescued. 1 have such assurance from the Indians that the white boy will he brought back alive that I am looking for him every moment, and will in form you by courier.” GA LL Alt DO’S C All PA lON. A Hot but Unsuccessful Pursuit—The Plan of Operations. bpeciul to Chicago Tribune, 12th. Casa Gran dlh. Chihuahua. Sierra Mail re Mountains, June s.—The expedition under command of Colonel Emilia Gallardo, which left on the J 4th for a scout in tlie Sierras, has returned, and left for San Buena Ventura to report to Guerra. The command did not en counter any of Crook’s scouts, but struck an Indian trail when twelve days out, near Rio Bonita, which runs down the slope of the Sierras on this side. The trail was warmly followed, and found to lead into Herla de Aymllas, Eagle’s Nest Canon. Preparations were at once made to surround the hostiles. and flanking parties were put out from the main body. The 24th ult. the Indians were dis covered. A trap was laid for them, and they retreated through the only part of the mountain canon left open. Gallardo pressed rapidly on after them, and they were obliged to abandon forty-two head of stock in the effort to escape. They retreated toward the Sierra Carcay, situated to the north of Corral it as, which is a spur of the great range. It contains a beautifijl park, where there is wood, grass, and plenty of game, and where starvation for tfie hostiles cannot be relied upon. In order to prevent hot pursuit the hostiles fired the Sierra in their flight, and it is now burning. The Indians have with them an American named Patrick Finn, who was captured near here early in May, In the Sierra Carcay, with but one or two narrow trails leading to it through perpendicular canons, they can defy the whole combined forces of Mexico ami ttie Cnited States for months', and there are equally as secure places in and around the Casa de Janos. The foref 1 ordered from Chihuahua to fol low the Indians who stole the women of chatto’s band, numbering 110 men, tinder the command of Lieutenant-colonel La Jos, has also returned. They have missed the trail. Gallardo is at San Buena Ventura now making arrangements foranotlier scout. The country between Casa Grande and San Buenu Ventura, despite the efforts of the authorities and the number of scouting purtles in the field, is very unsafe, and all travel is done by night. Between Corralitos mihl Janos travel is also done by night. Whatever trouble the government of the t'nited States may have as to knowing tlie position of General Crook, it is well known to the Mexican commanders in the field on the Sonora slope, with whom General ('rook i acting in full accord. The loth he was at B trerac, on the Rio de Basepeta. as the heud w.iters of the Kagni river Is called. After an understanding with Colonels Garcia and Torres the following positions were occu pied about lhe 20th Inst.: Colonel I/orenzo larcia, with 1,(500 infantry, headquarters at ‘Baceruc; Colonel Torres, with 200 cavalry iino a strong force of volunteers at Babispe. .A.t far as it is possible for human skill to Re lcom nlish the object. the Indians are fairly trapped. The campaign may he prolonged find rendered even more difficult than" at present, owing to the near approach of the rainy season. It will render.impassable a vast number of the roads and trails now used by the troops. Juh is universally locked up to as a man of rare ability, although as a war chief lie is not considered the of Geronimo. But Geronimo can only fight, while Juh can not j only tight but plan. Juh, in the Apache tongue, menus fire. The chiefs of the other two bauds associated with him have Spanish j names, Chato. Flat nose, and Loco Madina. I Among all classes, and your correspondent has spoken to hundreds, the universal opin- ion favors General Crock’s plans. The only fear expressed is that instead of making good Indians he may induce them to go buck to San Carlos. Ail speak strongly on this sub ject. ami demand that the same measures which the A (Riches meted out to their victims j should be given back to them. COM M ENC EM ENT SEASON. exercises Incident to tlie Graduating of the Forty-fifth Class at Wabash. Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal. L k \wfordsvxiaLß, June 11. —\Vaba>h College and its friends are now in the midst of the exercises incident to the annual commence- j meat. The college this year sends out its forty-fifth class, and as the institution grows in age the interest taken in it by the alum ni and others seems to increase. In the exhibition of the preparatory de partment, which took place Friday night. Park Daniels, of Rockville was awarded first prize, and \V. F. Ho ult, of Ghrisman 111., second. The declamation spoken by Mr. Daniels was an extract taken from a speech delivered by Mr. E. T. Johnson, of Indian apolis. at Castle ton during the last presiden tial campaign, in which he paid his respects to Governor Hendricks for his omission to mention the soldiers in his speech i dedicating the new Stale-house. It has taken the first prize for three years, twice in the sophomore contest. W. L. Greenwood and Ned Arthur, of the preparatory department, were awarded the first and second prizes, re spectively, as essayists of this department. On Saturday evening Prof. H. C. Hovev, of New llaveti, delivered a lecture in the col lege chapel on cave scenery, with views by the electric light, lie gave descriptions of Fingal’s cave, Wyandotte. Mammoth, and a number of European caverns, all of which he has visited and studied. This lecture throughout was interesting. Sunday morning Doctor Tuttle delivered his twenty-first baccalaureate address, as president of Wabash, He took as his text, “With the Ixird, one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day Ilis sermon was an unusually eloquent one, and his farewell address to the sen ior class very affecting. He exhorted them to go forth and assist in hastening the moral millennium, which great result is in the hands of man. The address delivered before the Y. M. C. A. of the college, last night at Center Church, by Dr. Barrows, of Chicago, was listened to by a large audience, and is pronounced by all the finest lecture delivered in the city for years. His theme, “The American Nation ality, its origin and its needs,” was handled in an eloquent and masterly manner. Moral, scientific and political observations were happily blended by the well-known divine, ami his conclusions showed a remarkable breadth of reading and thought. The audi ence will not soon forget this lecture, and, indeed, arrangements are now on foot to at tempt to secure him for our lecture course next year. The exhibition of, the sophomore and freshman classes will take place to-night at Center Church, at which time four young men from each class will contest for the prize in decla mation. The junior class day will take place to morrow morning at the opera-house. Tickets for the entire seating capacity of the house have been issued, and hundreds are unable to secure the necessary pasteboards to admit them. The class day here is the most popu lar feature in connection with the week. Extensive arrangements are being made for tlie alumni dinner, which will be held in the college chapel on Wednesday. Between 125 and 150 alumni have written and signi fied their intention of being here, and the reunion of the old students who have gone out from the college will be a more enthusi astic affair than it was last year—the occasion of the semi-centennial of the founding of tho institution. The college fraternities, of which there are five chapters here, will all hold reunions during the week. Mr. Mort. Insley, a resident member of Beta Theta Pi. entertained the members of his order at his home last Saturday night. The Lariat and the Wabash, the two papers published by the students of the college, will be issued this week enlarged and otherwise improved. These two papers take a front rank among the college journals of the. West, and are now on firm footing. Arrangements have been made for their publication next year. Franklin College. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Franklin. June 12.—0n Monday the ex aminations were continued throughout the day. In the evening a mass meeting was held in the Baptist Church. Addresses were made by Rev. G. 11. Elgin, A. Blackburn, 11. Mabie, D. D, N. Carr, W. N. Wyeth, D. D., and President Stott. All these were hopeful and encouraging. The outlook for the college was never so full of promise. The meeting of Lhe board to-day showed that there has been a marked increase of jer manent funds with sufficient money avail able to pay expen see. On Tuesday the most attractive room was the painting department, where, ou the walls and easels, were .specimens of the work of the pupils. Mrs. Belle R. .Stott is the teacher. In the evening Professor E. B. Halbert, of Chicago Baptist Theological Seminary, de livered the annual address before the two literary societies. The address was most forcefully delivered and received with frequent rounds of ap plause. Contest in Declamation.

TIIE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 13, 1883. BEGINNING OF THE END* (Concluded from First Page. I before stated, the discussion has not been en tered upon. You must not expect too much speed from a jury that has been hearing a case for nearly seven months,” said a court habitue, this evening, “it would not be dignified for the jury to bring a verdict in in less than two or three days. To return a verdict on the spot, one wav or theother, might be con strued as a set-up job. a cut-and-dried find ing, and that is one mistake this jury is not going to fall into. It will take its time.” Mattresses, sheets and refreshments were j brought into the jurv-room about 8 o’clock, and the apartments were brilliantly illuminated until quite late. If there is an absorbing interest in the result, it was not shown in tlie crowds around the court-house to-night. Quite a number of people re mained about the building for an hour or two after the Judge had charged the jury, but in the evening nobody, excepting the defendants, newspaper people and court attaches, was to be seen. The court-house corridors were practically deserted. Guards stationed at the door kept stragglers out of the building, and the jurors had it to them selves. General Brady, ex-Senator Dorsey, Vailo and Miner, and the attorneys for the defense, were across the street in a lawyer’s office and taking tlie air on tho sidewalk beneath, in company with their friends. They did not appear at all alarmed, although it was quiie certaiu that they were concerned in the result. They did not conceal the fact that they were interested in the result. Colonel In- I gersoll and his colleagues were hidden from view in tho second story of an office block, but the defendants preferred the outside air, and they took it. At midnight everything was quiet about the court-house. Several black objects of huge dimensions were to be seen protruding from the windows of tlie jury room; the light was lowered, but the gazers concluded they were feet, and turned away. The gossips last night said that the second trial has cost, in the neighborhood of $600,- OU0; the first trial cost over $400,000. General Brady says it has cost tlie government $2 to p.osecute, where it has cost $1 to defend. This would put tho cost of the second trial to the defendants at something like $200,000, which will fall on Brady. Dor sey and Vaile. Although not much is known of the latter, it is said he is the rich est of them all, the death of his wife having brought him a la**ge fortune. REMARKABLE CASE. A Long and Stubborn Contest—A Record of Four Million Words. Washington Special. Nearly seven and one-half monthp have been consumed in the trial, and the closing arguments have engaged counsel over four weeks. This trial is in many respects one of tlie most remarkable in the history of crimi nal prosecutions. Tlie Beecher and the Gui teau trials were each of great length, and the first trial of the star-route conspirators con tinued more than three months, but no trial in modern times in American courts has been of so long duration and so stubbornly contested as tne one which will he de cided this week. The record in the pending case fills (5.000 printed pages, of about 700 words to the pages, or in the neigh borhood of 4,200.000 woids. The direct tes timony for the prosecution covers 2,318 pages; for tlie defense, 1,560 pages. Tiie re butting tesitmony for the government fills 100 pages. Tbe closing addresses of Messrs. Ker, Bliss and Merrick, for the prosecution, cover 813 pages, and the speeches of Messrs, lngersoll and Wilson, for the defense, cover 144 pages. Tlie general opinion of those who have closely followed the case in tiie court room is that the jury will not agree, a ma jority being for conviction. If, perehance, the defendants are convicted, they will appeal the case to a higher court. Countless excep tions on which the appeal can be based have entered. VAN WYCK’S COMPLAINT. The Senator's Protect Against tlie Rig Fees of the Star-Route Lawyers. Interview with Senator Van Wjrck. The reporter asked the Senator whether or not it was a fact that the treasury officials had refused to audit the bill presented lately by George Bliss for his personal expenses. The Senator said: “I do not know whether it is so. but I do know it ought to have been done long ago. “Have you ever had a talk on the subject with any of the treasury officers?” “Yes, I had a good-humored talk with Judge Lawrence about it a short time ago, and suggested to him that the fees paid Bliss, Ker and Merrick were an outrage, and that it ought to be stopped, ami especially ought the paying of the private expenses be stopped.” “What did he say?” ‘He said that the Attorney-general seemed to have control of all the money appropri ated by Congress for the Department of Jus tice, and he spent it as tie chose. I took issue with the Judge on that point. I told him that he was there to protect the people against such outrages. 1 say that if ttie star loute defendants are guilty they are better and more honorable men than these fellows who are robbing the treasury every day un der the guise of attorneys’ fees. The star routers took the chances of being indicted, while the others do not. About their guilt, I have nothing to nay; that jury will settle that; but as to the other set I am free to say I am of the opinion that they are obtaining money out of the treasury wrongfully. But we will see what we will see when Congress meets.” “Ot R child had fils. Tin* (lootor aanl death was certain. Hmiiaruuii Norvme cured her.” Jleury Knee, Verrlllii, Twin..

Madison, June 12.—Following is an ex tract from a letter to Mayor Smith, of Madi son, from his brother, dated at Osgood, June 11: '*A terrific and destructive cyclone passed over this section about 0:30 i*. m., yesterday, doing mo great damage. Nearly all my buildings are gone, except my dwelling house; ruined my large hay barn and the home orchard; tore out bv the roots those large oak trees just west of my house, and carried some of them clear over my house, hi. 11. Roe lost SIO,OOO, including his new stone house that cost him SO,OO0 —the finest in our county. Those large brick store houses of Shook, Glasgow and Harding were partly demolished. David E. Carrington was trying to get home, and was blown against Roe’s stone house just as it blew over. lie was frightfully crushed and killed instantly, and another person close at hand ■was instantly killed. Some persons were carried a distance of 300 feet and not much hurt. Cattle were in some instances curried over house-tops. All hands are hard at work clearing up the debris/’ From other sources, the Journal gleans the following particulars: “One mile and a half west of Osgood it struck the tile factory of Henry Stork, completed on Saturday at a cost of $4,000, and containing 7,000 tiles, un rooting and damaging the property to the amount of SI,OOO. P. Larabee’s barn was totally destroyed. The dwelling-house of Wm. Francisco was lifted from its founda tion and throw’ll against a tree, where it was left badly wrecked. Willis’s house was next throw’ll into a confused heap, the family, seven in number, escaping w T ith a few alight bruises. Passing over, the tornado de molished the one-storv brick resilience of O. Richardson; then out of town and into the country, it first caught the residences of A. E. Morrell and John Hudson, utterly destroy ing the one and unroofing the other.” In Jackson county the tornado did con siderable damage to buildings and forests, but there are no reports of injury to life. The Davis-Lamb Shooting Torre Haute Express. Mr. Davis, declining to speak for himself, the following statement was handed in as his side of the story: “He was waiting for **Tr. Vandever, who bad gone with Mr. Buff to his office, and while so waiting was talking w’ith Mr. Thomp son and Mr. Pugh, and not thinking of Mr. Lamb. While at the foot of the stairway of Lamb’s office Mr. Lamb approached from across the street, seeming excited, and as he came near said: ‘How r are you” or something to that ellect. There had been bad blood be tween them for some days. Ho said to Lamb: ‘You shan’t speak to me,’ and Lamb said he would speak where he pleased. Harsh w’ords passed. Lamb approached holdng a heavy cane in his right hand near the middle. He gave back and drew bis pistol, as he would not let any man hit him with a cane. Lamb pressed over and either caught at him or struck at bim. He caught at the cane and fired. Lamb stooped as he turned to go into the store and tiie ball missed him. The whole affair occu pied but a moment.” iiicklin’s toe. Josiah Ilicklin, whose big toe received the ball intended for John E. Lamb, thinks be is a marked man. Last Monday he went to see one of his neighbors, a woman, about her dog, w’hich he claimed had just killed a lot of his sheep. He saw the dog leave the field where the blieep were killed, and followed him home. When he reached tnere the dog was chained up. He stated his errand, and the woman denied that the dog had injured his sheep. “Well,” said he, “I’ll look at his teeth, anyway, and see if there is any wool between them.” This he pro ceeded to do, and then the old lady proceeded also to do something. >?lie grabbed a corn-knife and cut him on the arm with it, and seized his beard and tore a lot of it out. Altogether the old gentle man had pretty rough handling, and felt himself fortunate in getting away with his life from the enraged female. Yesterday he was shot, and now he is wondering what will happen him to him next Monday. In both the'-e cases he had not the slightest idea that anything was going to occur until it happened. After Hicklin and Davis had gone to Chief Fasig’s office, it is reported Davis told him to send or a doctor and have the toe fixed up, and told bim he wjuM bear all expense. The old man held the bieedimr member up and solemnly said to Davis, “Do you know’ what that toe is worth? That toe is worth exactly one thousand dollars!” An Engineer** Experience In a Tornado. Special to the InAianapolls Journal. Seymour, June 12. —John Seaman, of this city, the O. AM. engineer who ran his en gine through a cyclone on Sunday, one mile east of Butlerviile, Ind., relates his experi ence as follow’s “There had been a strong wind blowing for some time. We were coming west, and saw there was a storm raging ahead of us. (Suddenly the rain came, or the water, rather, as it poured in a sheet. We were running eighteen mile? per hour. Instantly the rain ceased, and my engine began to lubor. I pushed the lever ‘down in the corner,’ and gave her all the steam; but before I could do this w r c were onlv making about three miles per hour with great labor. It seemed as if the mighty weight was bearing down upon the engine, almost fastening it to the rail*. It was as if we were pulling against a mighty cable. I was pulling a dead engine. I looked back and saw freight cars, trucks and all, being carried from the track, the tops of several flying in the air. and some had been lifted from ttie track*, making a wreck of the most of the train. The ears were heavily loaded. Finally I run ahead a short distance. I saw trucks following on the rails that had been deprived of their cars. The force of the cyclone seemed to strike the engine oblique ly. The air was cool but oppressive. It was the hardest pull I have had on the Ohio A Mississippi, with all its grades.” Serious Shoot In? of a Drunken Man. Special lo tho Indianapolis Journal. Terre Haute, June 12.—This city is rap idly acquiring the reputation of being a tough place, hip-pocket occurences being svery-day happenings. Following close on the Davis-Lanib affray of yesterday was the shooting of William Burford, a drunken stranger from Teutopolia, by George Leake, watchman at the Seventh-street crossing of the Vandalia railway, which took place shortly before noon to day. Leak claims I that Burford struck him over the head with a plane, and he retaliated by firing three shots, one taking effect in Burford’s right arm and one in the right hip. The latter shot is likely to result seriously. Leake waived examination before a justice of the peace, and was released on bond. No Insanity in the Pollock Family. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journals Please allow me space in your columns to correct a statement which appeared in your paper under date of June 12, copied from the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. It is stated that one of Mr. Pollock’s daughters attempted suicide. This is a grave error, and the fam ily, while almost prostrated with grief at i the rash act of their poor, deranged brother, j teel keenly this false statement that retlects upon the name of the daughters. All the trouble that has befallen this aged and Christian father and mother can be traced alone to strong drink. I have been married to one of Mr. Pollock’s daughters for ten years, and a more devoted and sweeter wife never lived. The other daugiiters are equally good and pure, and I feel it my duty as a brother to defend the names of these sweet sisters, t hope the readers of your valuable paper may let the sad scene of Saturday night sink into obliv- I ion. and think kindly of this family, as they J deserve sympathy.

THE LOUISVILLE EXPOSITION. j Letter from President Arthur to General Manager Wright. Louisville, Ivy., June 12.—Major J. M. Wright, general manager of the Southern Ex position, received, to-day, the following let ter from President Arthur: Executive Mansion, Washington, June 9, 1883. J. M. Wright. Esq., First Vice-president, General j Manager,etc., Louisville, Ny.: My Dear Sir— I trust that my delay In answer ing your communication touching the proposed Southern exposition at Louisville, Ky„ in August next, has not been misinter preted. It is no wise attributable to luck of interest in the. great undertaking to which you have invited mv attention; that un dertaking, on the contrary, richly deserves ap proval. It commands ami will receive my per sonal and official encouragement. It seems to me, indeed, that its importance to the wnu c country, and especially to the South, can scare*;- j ly be overestimated. Such exhibitions I have come to among the most marked features and the most instructive agents of our modern civilization, for they en hance the dignity of labor and show to both la bor and capital how inextricably their iuteiests arc interwoven. They elevate the standard of industrial attainment and give fresh and eudur ing impetus to inventive genius and skill. No time was ever more auspicious than the present for such an enterprise, nor could it find a home in any more fitting spot than that which bus been choseu for it. You a;e not misled by enthusiasm, aud you but “speak tlie words of truth and soberness” when 3*oll say that anew era is dawning in which, as I be lieve, the South is destined to dis play, in tho development or Its marvelous resources, such zeal and energ3* as has never yet been exhibited in any regiou of our country at any period of our national life. The pro posed exhibition will disclose how vast, a field the South now offers for every phase of industrial effort in the mine, the field, the factory—everywhere, indeed, where activity aud skill can find room for em ployment; and the influence of the coble under taking will by no means be limited To its more material consequences. It will assist in quench ing tho spirit of sectional antagonism already, by God’s blessing, well nigh extinct. It. will bring tho people of the land into more intimate acquaintance, and sympathy. It will bind them together in closer devotion to the sentiment which now dwells in every pat riotic breast—“One Union, one constitution, oue destiny.” I am, very truly yours, Chester A. Arthur.

Cutter, Boston, Mass., says: “I foniul it to realize the expectations raised, and regard it as a reliable article.” AN OHIO MONSTER. An Unidentified Beast or Serpent Which Has Green Fyehalls and a Huge Month. I Zanesville Special. A tew days ago a young man named Wil liam Winters, who resides in Perry town ship, was directed by his father to go out into a field on the farm bordering on Big Halt creek and dig laurels, desiring to abolish the growth of this shrub. The young man armed himself with a double-barreled shot-gun and proceeded to the place, which was on a hill j •'■jdc. a wild-looking and romantic place, with J everything indicating the habitation of poi sonous reptiles and wild and vicious an imals. The young man placed his gun against a tree near the foot of the hill, and stepping oil* a distance of some sixty feet, began to dig up the laurels. Presently his j attention was attracted by a rustling I noise in the bushes above him, and, looking i j in that direction, he discovered the head of a monstrous-looking beast or reptile, he could i not tell which, looming up above the 1 I bushes. It once started toward j him with its mouth open until i 1 the jaw’s appeared to be twelve inches i apart, displaying a red, forked, poisonous tongue and ominous-looking teeth two incites long. The beast or serpent, or w’hat- I ever it was, whistled and roared in a fright i'ill manner, and came plunging on toward him with green-glaring ej*e-bal!s protruding from a massive head at least twelve inches I broad, and a mouth sufficiently large to al most swallow his whole body. Winters became frightened and 1 rushed for his gun, upon reaching which lie turned ami fired one barrel into j the monster, which turned its direction. He j watched its lialf-serpentine half-leaping J movements for a few moments, then it ran up a lare poplar and entered a hole, and Winters hurried home and notified not only t his own family hut n number of j neighbors of tiie strange, alarming sight lie had seen, and a posse of men. armed with axes and guns, repaired to the scene. They determined to cut the tree down, and while two of them did the chop- I ping the remainder of the party stood guard, with their guns leveled on the ihole where j the brute or serpent entered. Their labor I was in vain, however, as a thorough ex- 1 animation of the tree after it had been felled disclosed the fact that the j monster had escaped before they arrived. Mr. Winters says that the beast or reptile he saw w’as eight to twelve feet long, with a I body as large as a telegraph pole. It had legs about four inches long, a brown body t that was hairless, and a head shaped like a shark. The neighborhood is considerably j alarmed about the presence of this strange j production of nature, and will spare no i means to capture it. CRIMES A\l) CRIMINALS. A Kentucky Negro Taken from Jail to Re ceive His Deserts. St. Louis, June 12.—A dispatch from Hick man, Ky., says a masked mob, between 2 and 3 o’clock yesterday morning, took Henry Colbert, a negro, from the jail there, and car ried him off to the woods with a rope around his neck. It is not known, for a fact, what was done with the negro, but it is supposed the mob hung him. He was accused of having, in company with another negro, Peter Hart, made an attempt on the night of the sth of March, to enter the house of Mrs. Prather, living about nine miles from Hick man, for the purpose of outraging her. Col bert was only arrested a few days ago. At the preliminary examination, Saturday, it was shown conclusively that he and Hart, went to Mrs. Prather’s house nt the instance of a white man named Huze Woodall, and were under instructions to do her all the harm they could. Hart is not yet arrested. Mrs. Prather is connected with one o? the best families in Kentucky, a daughter of Ed. W. Stephens, a very prominent citizen, and widow of Dr. A. C. Prather. Shot Through tho Heart. St. Louis, June 12.—Advices from the In dian Territory say: “Benjamin F. Porter, private secretary to Chief Checoto, and a brother of General Porter, military com mander of the Creek Nation, was found dead on the street in Okmulkee, yesterday morn ing, shot through the heart. Whether death was accidental or the result of a quarrel with a gang of roughs who were carousing around town and tiring revolvers the night before, is not known. Porter was a graduate of Wooster College, Ohio, and a very prom ising young man,” Lou Honk's Sentence. Cincinnati, June 12. Lou Honk was taken to the penitentiaey yesterday, where he has a sentence of sixteen years to serve, for the killing of Paul Lolnnan, at Springfield. Tiie cost bill presented to the State for payment is $4,390.59. There is a hint that the verdict would iiave been murder in the first degree but for the fact that, in that case, the cost of the execution would have fallen upon Del aware county. DAMAGE BY STORMS.

How to Krep Butter. lowa Ilomrgroad. 1 he late X. A. Willard said at one of the meetings of the erruont Dairymen’s Asso eiation, from actual experience, that good outter, put up after the following directions, will keep in sound condition for one year: j "I se lor a package a tub somewhat tapering, with heavy staves and heads provided at both ends, so as to make a package that will not leak. In packing, the tub is turned on the m?d] end, and a 9ack of cotton cloth is made to lit the tub, and into this the butter is packed until it reaches to within an inch of the groove for holding the tipper head. A rloth is next laid upon the fop of the butter j and the edges of the stick brought over this and neatly pressed down; then the head is put !in its place and tiie hoops driven home. The package is turned upon the large end and the j sack of butter drops down, leaving a space on the sides and top. Strong brine is then poured through a hole in the small end until it will float tiie butter. The hole is now tightly corked, and the butter is pretty ef fectually excluded from the air.’’ Professor Sanborn has conducted a series of experiments which prove conclusively that it takes more corn to make a pound of pork when the hogs were allowed to run at large than when they were confined in the pen. A Woman's Experience. Mrs. William Downes, of Uxbrklge, Mass., writes on March 15, 1883, as follows. “During the past three years 1 have been a great sufferer from a complication of diseases, which baffled the skill of the most experienced doctors, as I could not obtain permanent, relief by their treatment and perscriptions, and I have also tried man y so-called cures in the medi cine line, hilt could get no relief. The pains, aches and weakness increased so rapidly and constantly that-1 was so reduced in strength as to be unable to leave tho bed, aud the doctors iu formed me that there was no hopoof a recovery. In this exhausted and discouraged condition a dear friend persuaded me to use Hunt’s Remedy and after taking It only three days T commenced to get better, and to my great joy and delight I have continued to improve constantly by its use. until now, after having taken the remedy only a few weeks, I am able to be about my house again, and am now doing iuy housework. My lame back is cured, tho severe pains have dis appeared. and I am now in better health than for many years, and beg this privilege of gladly recommending Hunt’s Remedy to all who are af fected with any disease of the kidneys or liver; and I also highly recommend it for the attacks of sick headache. My husband also lms experi enced a very great benefit to lus health 0y the us-* of this must valuable medicine, Hunt’s Remedy.” “Our Fla* Is Still There.” Mr. 8. B. Longfellow, Augusta. Me., east 6ido river, writes us uuder date of April 15, 1883: “To whom it may concern: This may certify that two years ago I was very badly a filleted with kidney and urinary difficulties, which ex tended through the system and laid me up for weeks, so that 1 could do no work. I had tho most skillful physician in town, who gave tue no assistance. Hearing of Hunt's Remedy I got a bottle, aud half of it cured uic entirely, so that I have been well ever since. The other half I gave I to a neighbor who was afflicted much as 1 was, and it restored him to health, f can truly say Hunt’s Remedy has been of great aud inexpres sible worth to me.” In the United States Circuit f ’ourt, at Kansas City, yesterday, Justice MtUer delivered an opinion iu the oleotnargerlne case, urged two weeks ago. The decision is generally adverse to the Oleomargeriue company. Mr. Noble Tiumi*s.*n, of the popular stables, 1,393 Broadway, New York, states that Bt. Ja cobs Oil is the best pain-cure for man or beast that has come under his notice In fifteen years. POL 11 ICAL For Mayor. M arquis l.

The House of Lords has passed to a second reading the bill legalizing marriage with a deceased wife’s sister. The influence of John Bright is marching on. What an admirable Boswell Mr. Watter son would make. His interview with Tilden, as given to the public this morning, is in the best vein of Johnson’s dear, delightful old chronicler of small beer. The casualties and crimes of a single day, when collated, make the heart sick. The rugged lines in this horrid picture might be subdued a little, if more of the works of charity and mercy were noted and mingled with the accounts of these dreadful deeds. If Mr. Watterson is to be believed, Mr. Tilden talked in a very confidential and im portant way with him, but carefully re frained from saying anything. Mr. Watter son is a great man in his own estimation, but it is evident that the Sage of Gramercv Park knows a political clown when he sees him. Mr. Watterson could a tale unfold which would freeze your blood and cause each par ticular hair to stand on end like quills upon the fretful porcupine, but be will not do it. The Spotless Prowess of Kentucky honor forbids it; hence he burdens the wires with a column, more or less, of inconsequential drivel. ___________ The Milwaukee Sentinel suggests an addi tion to the ‘‘Democraticorganic law.” which is kept standing so conspicuously at the head of the editorial columns of the Louisville Courier-Journal. It is this—an extract from the Democratic national platform of 1876, adopted nt St. Louis, when Mr. Tilden and Mr. Hendricks were nominated: ‘‘As such hindrance [to a return to- specie payments] we denounce the resumption act of 1875, and we here demand its repeal.” Mr. Tilden is a candidate for the presi dency. That is as plain as a pikestaff to anyone who remembers the Tilden tactics a year prior to the meeting of the St. Louis convention. The year 1880 was not a good one for the old ticket. The Democracy must be taught that no one could take them so near the Land of Promise as the Sage of Cipher alley. That lesson was given them. The year 1884 is thought to be propitious for the second advent. The federal court at Keokuk, la., inti mates that the reissue of the Gliddon and Kelly patents on barbed-wire fence will be held as invalid, and that all the parties sued for an infringement of the same will be dis charged. This will be a triumph for the farmers generally, and especially for those of lowa, who are largely interested in a local manufacturing establishment that turns out vast amounts of fencing of the same pattern as the Gliddon and Kelly make. We hope the intimation of the court will be confirmed bv the final decision yet to be rendered by the Supreme Court. The naked truth: The only reason the Democracy offer the country for wanting to control the government is that they can hold the offices and draw the salaries. As to all the great underlying principles of republican government, they are either silent or equivo cal. The Republicans can hold the offices and draw the salaries, top, and at the same time offer as a' guarantee for the future the history of the nation for the past quarter of a century, with the unshaken purpose to continue in practice the wise principles of national policy that have wrought such grand results in the past. Hehe is a little paragraph which embel lishes a disgraceful chapter of American leg islation, taken from the New York papers: “Right Rev. Simon Valentesi. Bishop of Paleopolis, and Vicar Apostolic of Honan, China, accompanied by his secretary, Dr. Abel Shin, a Chinaman by birth, arrived yesterday from Rio Janeiro. Dr. Shin being a Chinaman was not allowed to land. The custom-house officers declared that it would be a direct violation of the Chinese immi grant act, and so compelled him to remain aboard the vessel. The party will start for San Francisco immediately on the releaso of Dr. Shin, and will then sail for China. And the United States claims to be tiie foremost civilized and Christian nation in the world. The Chicago Times prints an interview with General Fitz John Porter in which the unexecuted traitor indulges in certain innu endoes about the private life of Senator Lo gan, which everyone who knows the Senator knows to be false. Whatever political opposition there may be to Senator Logan we fancy Fitz John Porter has mistaken the temper of any considerable portion of the American people if he imagines that by a scandalous and infamous personal attack upon Senator Logan he can assist himself to reverse the verdict of history, which has fixed an indellible stamp of shame upon his name. Mr. Lincoln thought Porter should have been shot, and President Garfield, as is well known, was of the opinion that the ver dict of the court-martial in his case ought not to be set aside. A great weight of mili tary authority, ever since the Schofield Board of Revision, is in favor of the justice of the sentence passed upon him. President Arthur has issued a pardon of that portion of the verdict over which the executive had control, and with this Porter had better be satisfied. It is certain be will have to be if he proposes to vilify and slander all who may see tit to oppose his restoration to the army and his raid upon the treasury. ENGLAND’S INTEREST IN FREE TRADE. England’s attitude of hostility toward American manufacturing interests has been consistent and unswerving fr.om the earliest days in which the young colonies began to realize the wisdom and economy of manufac turing for themselves. As far back as 164 years ago, or in 1719, the English House of Com mons, in obedience to the demands of the avaricious British traders, decreed “that the erection of manufactures in the colonies tended to lessen their dependence Upon Great Britain.” The measure, while emi nently selfish, was equally wise. The nearer a nation conies to supplying all its wants the nearer perfect independence does it ap proach. It is not strange, therefore, that England should regard our advance ment toward industrial independence with well-grounded fear. Yet how much greater now the ground for apprehensive in terest. If the crude appliances of the early years of the eighteenth century furnished material for alarm, what must be the feeling in England now, with America dotted with manufactories as good as the best in the world. The instinct of self-preservation made England the natural enemy of Ameri can manufactures, and, never swerving in its hostility, it is yet anxious to break them down in order to increase its own ad vantage. In pursuance of an order from the House of Commons to inquire into the industrial affairs of the colonies, the English Board of Trade, in 1731-32, urged that in New Eng land, New York, Pennsylvania and Mary land—“in the colonies northward of Vir ginia”—the colonists “had fallen into the manufacture” of woolen and linen cloth, that they raised flax and hemp, which they manufactured into “a coarse sort of cloth, bags, traces and halters,” to supply the domestic demand; that they had established woolen mills for domestic manufactures, and that linen and cotton, for shirting, were made; that they “manufac tured brown hoi lands for women’s wear,” and that the Assembly of Massachusetts had voted a bounty of thirty shillings for every piece of duck or canvas manufactured in the province; that great quantities of hats and leather were manufactured and exported to Spain, Portugal and the West Indies; that in Massachusetts they had set up a paper mill; that they had established iron works, six furnaces and nineteen forges and one slitting mill for the manufacture of bar iron and of “cast iron or hollow ware”—“all sorts of iron for ships”—and “a manufactory for nails;” and that they “built many brig antines and small sloops,” which they sold in the West Indies. Following this, in 1750, a law was passed denouncing colonial manufacturers as “com mon nuisances,” and commanding the colo nial governors to summarily abate them. It was this spirit of determined monopoly that at length'drove the colonists into the revolu tion that eventually freed them from such disastrous domineering on the part of the mother country. Mindful of the oppression under which they had so long suffered, and fully awake to the importance of establish ing and maintaining every possible branch of manufacture in America, the first bill in troduced into Congress, and the second one to pass, was one “for the encouragement and protection of manufactures.” It was written by James Madison, and was approved by Washington on the 4th of July, 1789, an au spicious augury for the measure. A year later the bill’s imposts were increased and extended. British hostility to our growing manufac turing interests, and the attempt to counter act their effect in increasing our prosperity and independence, precipitated the war of 1812. Before that war the British govern ment had sought to defeat the object of our protection laws by cunningly devised treaties. It was defeated in both, and our ports remained closed to the importunate British free-trader. At the close of the war the British trader attacked our industries in another way. He resolved, at whatever cost, to flood our markets with English good 9, the object being, as declared by Lord Brougham in the House of Commons, to glut the market and thus override “the rising manufactures in the United States which the war had forced into existence contrary to the natural order of things.” This was met by the tariff act of April, 1816, a Southern measure, reported iu the House from the committee on ways and means, by William Lowndes, of South Carolina. It was supported in a celebrated speech by John C. Calhoun, and passed by Southern votes, against the protests and votes of New England. The tariff acts of 1824 and 1828 increased and extended the provis ions of ‘that of 1816. Each of these measures, evincing a determination on the part of the United States to foster THE JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 13, 1883. and protect its industries, had the offect of increasing the indignation of British traders, and every effort was made to convince Americans that the true policy was to adopt free trade. At the time the act of 1824 and 1828 was passed, a movement sprang up in South Carolina and Georgia iu favor of free trade. It was manipulated by Thomas Cooper, a noted Englishman, and president of Columbia College, South Caro lina. It was this same Cooper who, at the anti-tariff meeting at Columbia, in July, 1827, gave utterance to that disloyal sentiment so notorious in its day, “We shall, ere long, be compelled to calculate the value of the Union.” The result of such seditious doc trine was to well nigh plunge the republic into internecine war, and such an issue was averted only by the inflexible will of Andrew Jackson. But the new doctrine, nursed into life by emissaries of the British government, grew so strong that the compromise tariff act of 1333, modifying the duties on unimported articles, was passed. In 1846 British influ ence had grown so great- that the protect ive principle was expunged from the statutes, to the ruin of our industries and trade, the bankruptcy of the national treas ury aud the destruction of the credit of the Nation. Later came the advent of the Republican party and the restoration of a protective tariff, under the operations of which the in dustrial interests of the country have flour ished as never before. But that very meas ure, so essential to our national life, was enough to align Great Britain against us in our struggle for the maintenance of an undi vided country. Not that it openly indorsed the rebellion, with all its abhorrent prac tices of human slavery, but by secret means England afforded the South every aid and comfort, and it finally cost the British exchequer $15,000,000. After the war, for a time, English doc trines found no favor on this side of the Atlantic. It was too apparent then that we owed our country’s life to the operations of the tariff law, next only to the bravery and skill of our army and its officers. Now, how ever, the old-time agitation is again coming to the front, and the friends of British indus tries naturally attach themselves to their friends of 1861-65, the Democratic party. But these people are thoroughly awake now to the merits of this question, and tho folly of free trade will not soon again be saddled upon this country. The very fact that the Demo cratic party allied itself with the British trader and manufacturer in 1880 did more to de feat it than almost any other issue. It will be so in 1884, if that folly is incorporated into its platform, as now seems possible. That party has long identified itself with every thing detrimental to the prosperity of the country and dangerous to its very ex istence. It has always found a friend in America’s ancient competitor, and doubt less will again. For over a century and a half England has labored to kill industrial enterprise in America. It has more reason tor such a purpose now than ever before, and it will not fail to contribute to the agitation through which it hopes to attain this ob ject. ________ Whatever may be said of the policy of Leo XIII in reference to his diplomacy in dealing with the agitators of Ireland, there is no question as to hia far-reaching shrewd ness in other and more extended fields. When death closed the papacy of Pius IX the Vatican was in a row with the German empire, and since that time serious dif ferences of long standing culminated In Russia. Besides these, there were minor difficulties with almost every leading power in Europe. The Catholic clergy were ex pelled from some countries and put under stringent laws in others. But during the last year or two these embarrassments have been disappearing, and in theii settlement and adjustment the ad vantages seem to be largely in favor of his Holiness. The troubles with the German empire and those with Russia are marked in stances wherein the adjustment lias left the interests of the Catholic Church upon a bet ter footing enjoyed prior to thedif feiences. Leo may have sustained slight temporary losses in Ireland, but the gains elsewhere for them a thousand fold. He has no chad his equal in diplomacy in the pontificate for many years. One of the Guiteau jurors has gone insane. He is said to be the fifteenth person con nected with that celebrated trial whom evil in some form has since befallen. The super stitious are inclined to ascribe this fatality to the curse pronounced by the assassin on all who had any part in his conviction; but from a common sense point of view there is nothing remarkable about it The number 1 of human beings who escape misfortune in every form for six successive months is small. It would almost seem that participants in the Guiteau trial had their full share of ca lamity then and there; but, as events prove, they were not exempted from further afflic tion. The fortunate people who only en dured the trial at long range may thank their lucky stars, not that they escaped the curse, but that constant attendance in the court-room did not weaken their minds and undermine their bodily health. General McClellan says it was “the matchless patriotism” of .Samuel J. Tilden and of the Democratic party that prevented a war in 1877 over the disputed presidency. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, noticing the remark that “Mr. Tilden once had the presidency within his grasp,” finely observed that “Ulysses S. Grant was at the other end of the string.” That is what prevented the country from being embroiled iu war with Mr. Watterson‘a one hundred thousand Ken tuckians, representing the Democratic army of disappointed bummers. Tilden’s “match less patriotism” was a mere cipher. 0 A man has been found who still maintains that Keely, of Philadelphia, has really discovered a valuable power, which needs but be properly directed to be of incalculable benefit to commerce. That this “believer” Is president of the Keely Motor Stock Company may cause some to doubt his statement as being a little prejudiced, but it ought not. Keely has promised so often to have his baby cyclone iu harness by “next August,” that it is a shame to longer doubt. The presi dent now declares that “we are now building a 500-horse power locomotive,” etc. We can only hope to bo blessed with life until it is ready to perform as announced on the bills. Mr. John F. Wildman, ex-collector of the An derson district, and one of the best known and most oapable men in tho State, has purchased the Muncie Times, and that old and influential organ of Delaware county Republicanism will hereafter be published under his personal super vision. The Republicans of Muncie and of Dela ware are to be congratulated upon the acqui sition of Major Wildmau to their community, and particularly in this important and responsi ble position, for which he is so well fitted. The Times cannot help but inaintalu all its old influ ence under the new ownership.
The southern California gold bubble has ool lapsed. The alleged mines are very difficult of access, and the nearest wet-weather stream Is twelve miles distant, and in the dry season water oannut be had within less than twenty-seven miles. For the benefit of tramps and adventur ers who had thought of going thither, it is but fpir to say that the southern Illinois peach orop will ripen by the end of June this year, and farmers are going to pay sl6 a day for people to eat the fruit to keep it from spoiling. Now is the time to start, so as to be on bauds before the grand rush. The bees over in Pennsylvania attack the work horses in the field. The bee in Indiana is having more fun than that in plying his business end about the ears of our great statesmen. Why, the great political clrous now In full blast among the Democracy of the whole country, originated from the buzzing of one of the smart Western bees. He was a stinger, and is liable to make somebody break something. More prowess. William W. Green, a reputa ble farmer of Grant county, Kentucky, was ambushed by The Jump family, and seventy-two buckshot fired into his body; six of the Jumps have been arrested, and the inference is that the rest of the family jumped the country. The amount of chivalry displayed in these assassina tions is amazing. What is Kentucky ohivalry, anyhow! When Mr. Gladstone wants a little recreation he goes out and chops dowu a tree. Fired by his illustrious example, New York lawyers, bankers and physicians, in the absence of available growing trees, have turned their attention to carpenter work as a pastime. When they get tired of the bench they might go into the base ment and buw up a supply of wood for the wiuter. An Essex county, N. Y.,Jury gave a verdict of SBOO agaiust a mining company for the acci dental killing of a young man in their employ. The father of the young man sued for damages and the amount was limited to SBOO, the jury calculating that the old man, who was aged 106, could not possibly need more than that amount to carry him through bis earthly career. Anxious Reader: No, It is no longer thought that cyclones take their origin from college com mencement speeches. They are similar in their characteristics, but one is severer than the other, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that one is milder than the other. We do not know which one, however. Those who went to Carolina Island to view the recent solar eclipse, report perfeot weather for the observation, and the result was a great success. This will materially help to determine the exact distance of the sun, which will be the source of great satisfaction to people buying fuel for next winter.* “Justice Miller, of the United States Supreme Courr, walks tho street, while wearing a dress coat and an old plug hat.

It crops out that the leisurely driving of the Czar, unguarded, through the streets of St. Petersburg on his return from Moscow, was a sweeping gallop, with the court aud retinue at hand, giving the Nihilist no chance at all, unless he were a Carver or a Bogardus. Tiie third tornado of the season has struck Missouri. That State was born in a commotion and troubles seem to follow it up. They may have had cyclones and tornadoes before, but the James boys kept up such a racket that the oyolonea were uot’ noticed. John Howard Payne now being comfortably and securely buried the writers of “odes” and “In Meiuoriams” and “Welcome Homes” to the sweet singer will please turn their attention to other carpenter work, and thereby gratify asuf toriug public. We kindly suggest to the Indianapolis Senti nel to commence a grand Democratic barbecue m order to get rid of the glut of “old crow” now on bauds. It must be eaten, and it would be cruelty to animals to ask a few ineu to devour it all. When the voters of the country come to re flect seriously they will Be© to it that the party which permitted the nation to go to wreck dur ing its last administration shall not be returned to power.

The pigeon winning the prize offered by the Newark club this season made a distance of 230*4 miles in 288 minutes. Fifty-ono birds competed. This is a good year for the alleged American rifle team to stay away from Wimbledon. They can get beaten nearer home, ana for half the money. The report comes that Mountain Evangelist Barnes is not successful in his work m England, which is cause of great grntulation to all. What a travesty upon the classics, that scores of dead-beats go about the country and pretend to wrestle in the Grteco-Rotuan stylo. Mrs. Kilgore, of Philadelphia, Is about to ap ply for admission to the bar, and the bourd of examiners having no precedent to guide them iu such a case, are tiembliog in their boots.

Judge White, of Dallas, Tex., thinks that the great electric storms are due to the vast amount of exposed iron. There are 100,000 miles of railway and 200,000 miles of telegraph wire in the United States—quite enough, be urges, to in fluence natural electricity. Ex-Governor a. H.

Chapin, who died, on Sunday, at Springfield, bad for more than a quarter of a century been a conspicuous figure in western Massachusetts, and for a much longer period he had been closely identified with the material development of the busy city where his life was spent and of the region around about It. The little paragraph about Mrs. W. K. Van derbilt's new Russian troika has now been printed twice in every newspaper In the United States. There never was a bit of truth iu it In the first place.

Major Nickerson is a man of striulng phys ique, and will not easily be forgotten when once seen. He is forty-five years of age, five feet ten inohes In height, weighs about 150 pounds, and stands very erect. His hair and heard, as well as lits eyes, are jet black, his hair rather short, but his beard long and flowiug. He is quick spoken, and has a shrewd look about him. His attire is usually faultless. When the Princess Louise was at Santa Fe last winter, she visited the store of a dealer in local curiosities. After she had spent some hundreds of dollars in ancient Pueblo pottery, a wag, who was “onto it,” and who also relished a joke on occasions, stepped up and asked her Highness if she would like to see a real curiosity. “Oh, in deed, yes,” said the Priucess. Beckoning her to the door, the wretch showed her where the an cient Pueblo pottery was being made with great dexterity in the placita. Carlyle’s niece wrote biographer Froude that she was the inheritor of her unde’s MSS., and should roceive the profits of the sale of the book. When Froude got his publisher's cheok for the profits, $6,000, he sent it to the young lady, saying he did not recognize her claim, but yielded the money as a gentlemanly sacrifice. The niece replied, angrily, that she had only got her rights. Whereupon Froude rushed to tho bank, stopped payment of the check aud Carlyle’s niece went without the money. John G. Whittier often writes impromptu verses, in albums and elsewhere, bright with a gayety that'does not often appear in his more important works. Not long ago he wrote in the album of a young lady—who with her friends had been rallying him on his bachelorhood—the following lines: “Ah, ladies, you love to levy a tax On my poor little paper parcel of fame; Yet strange it seems that among you ail Not one is willing to take my name— To write and rewrite, till tiie angels pity her. The weariful words—Thine truly, Whittier.” A good story is told of the wife of an Ameri can diplomatist, who is fond of calling upon the colebrities iu every place wbioh she visits. Be ing in Florence some timo ago, she expressed her intention of oalllng upon “Ouida,” the well known uovelist. Her friends attempted to dis suade her, saying that “Ouida” had a violent prejudice against Americans. Uudeturred, the female diplomatist called at the novelist’s house and was met who said: “I must tell you that I exceedingly dislike Ameri cans.” “I am very much surprised to hear that,” was the reply, “for they are the only people who read your nasty books!” The recent death of General George P, Buell bus called out a letter written bj him De cember to a Southern friend who had chanoed to become his prisoner in the closing months of tho war, in which occurs this suggestive statement: “Onoe, soon after the war, I saw your good moth er, who I recollect thought her boy was almost ruiued beoause he had goue to work. I felt sor ry for her, of course, but could not help laugh ing to myself, fori (though the son ot a rich man who educated his children well) had been taught to work always. I wonder what that good mother, if she still lives, thiuks of the poor boy who has the responsibility of 1,200 miles of rail road ou his mind every momeut of time.” SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

It (the silver ooinaee aot) has done no good whatever, unless the furnishing of a market for a commodity possessed by private individuals can be retarded in that light. With the disap pearance of tho last possibility of the adoption of an alternate standard by the great nations of the world, the last poor excuse for the continuance of tho silver coinage van ishes into thin air.

Comments of the Press of the State on the Rape of the Bummers. IN THE HANDB OF DESPERATE BUMMERS, Fort Wayne Gazette. The Brown benevolent institutions bill was was intended to make such a general raid on these institutions possible, and they suc ceeded. These institutions are now in tha hands of a desperate band of bummers who have raided the institutions. Dr. Rogers stood in the way of successfully carrying out their designs, and he had to be removed. What care these men for the good or comfort of the 1,500 unfortunates in the asylum? What is true of the insane asylum is likewise true of the asylum for the deaf and dumb, as also the asylum for the blind. The men who have been placed at the head of thess various institutions understand perfectly well how to manage a ward election, or how to fix up saloons to make the boys vote solid, but are wholly ignorant, and care less, about the management of these institutions. THE BOARD’S ACTION DISREPUTABLE. Lafayette Journal. The action of the board is not only disrep utable, but it is agreat wrong to Dr. Rogers, and a still greater wrong to the people ani to the inmates of the asylum. It was at the instance of tiie ward bummers of Indianapo lis that the thing was done. It shows the animus of the Democratic party, and a de termination to use every possible means, fair or foul, to bring the State institutions under the control of the bummer element. DEMOCRACY PURE AND SIMPLE. Muncie News. Here is Democracy pure and simple for you—jeopardizing an important benevolent institution and place irs inmates in peril in order that some half dozen inexperienced Democratic pipe-layers and vote-purchasers can get their pay for the devil’s own bar gains with corruption. It is time, when such things can be done, that the conscience of the State were rasped into a healthy state of activity. A POOR COMMENTARY ON DEMOCRACY. LogauHport Journal. Because Dr. Rogers would not be a pliant tool in the hands of the Democrats he is bounced from the position of superintend ent of the Insane Hospital at Indianapolis. It is a poor commentary on the wisdom and justice of so-called Democratic leaders that even the benevolent institutions of the State are not free from their vile political inter ference. THE INDIGNATION 18 JUST. Washington Gazette. Dr. Rogers has been removed from the su perintendency of the Insane Asylum at In dianapolis by a partisan Democratic manage* ment, and all for partisan purposes, and the result is that quite a breeze is stirred up. The indignation at his removal is just. Mrs. Gould Cashier of the Gould Firm. New York Letter in Washington Star. A friend o f mine in the City Hall tells mo that Jay Gould’s property is all in his wife’s name. He claims he got his facts from first hands and gives all necessary names and dates. A contractor living at Seventy-eighth street and Third avenue had an attachment against Jay Gould for some repairs on his property up the Hudson. Gould refused to meet the demand, because he thought it was excessive The man thereupon got ati at tachment and sent a deputy sheriff to Irv ington. The deputy made a thorough in vestigation and found that every bit of Gould's property, including furniture, farm implements, live stock, house aud grounds, were in Mrs. Gould’s name. All household checks are made by Mrs. Gould. Sympathetic Insanity. Troy, N. Y., June 12.—A singular infttanct of periodical insanity is exhibited in the case of a well-known young lady of greal beauty and belonging to a very respectable family in this city. Though permitted to go at large, she is carefully watched, and will doubtless soon be sent to an asylum, where she may find rest from mental excitement and receive proper medical treatment. The most singular feature of the poor girl’s mis fortune is tliat she suffers under the insane attacks only at periods when her brother is similarly suffering. He has been very vio lent at times, and during these attacks his sister’s mind became clouded as if in sympa thy with him. At other times she shows n J evidence of a disordered mind. Mississippi Republicans Organizing. Jackson, Miss.,.Tunc 12.—The Republican executive committee, seventeen members, with one or two exceptions, met at noon, John R. Lynch, chairman. District Attor ney Chandler, General Fitzgerald, Colonel Morphis and a number of influential Repub* lieans were present, taking an active part iu the meeting. General Chalmers is hi the city. Mr. Lynch is said to be moving quiet ly to prevent the disorganization of the Re publican party as a political body. A Braid wood Coal Shaft on Fire. Braidwood, 111., June 12.—At 7:30 o’clock last night a fire broke out in shaft “G” iu this city, and has been ratting ever since. The fire department labored all last night to extinguish the flames, but without success. Violent explosions were heard during tho night. Thirty mules were burned. Loss, $6,000. The 'shaft is one of the most valu able in the coal fields, and was worked solely by colored men. The loss is thought to bo very great. Student Imprisoned for Theft.

NATIONAL CAPITAL NEWS. Details of the Proposed Reduction of Revenue Districts. A. Possible Political Sensation Concerning the New York Collectorship—Notea and Gossip of the Capital. THE REVENUE DISTRICTS. Details of the Proposed Reduction—Correc tion of Current Reports. Washington Special to New York Herald. The definite plan 13 not yet fixed, but as near as can be given now, Massachusetts will lose one collector, probably the Newbury port district, dividing the State into two dis tricts. Connecticut will lose the Norwich district, making but one in the State. New York now has twelve districts. Middletown, Troy, Auburn, Rochester and one other on tho list are to be wiped out, reducing the number to seven. Pennsylvania now has ten, and will lose four or five, Reading, Som erset and Greenville being among the num ber. New Jersey has three districts. Cam den is recommended for consolidation. Ma ryland is uncertain. It now has two dis tricts, including the District of Columbia, •nd it is probable no change will be made in this State. Virginia is to lose two districts, probably Danville and Lynchburg. North Carolina will lose one district, probably Newbern. In this State there are a large number of small dis tilleries which require constant watching by the revenue officers. Ohio is booked for the cutting off of four districts—Wilmington, Bcllefontaine, Chillicothe and Marietta. Indiana is to lose two, aud perhaps three— Warsaw and Anderson. Kentucky will lose the Maysville district. Illinois, Sterling, Chnmpaign and one other district. Mis souri, two districts. Michigan, one or two. lowa, two—probably Dubuque and Burling ton. Wisconsin, one—probably Sparta. The statement that has been generally pub lished, to the effect that senators and con gressmen-eleot have endeavored to persuade the President not to reduce the number of districts, is not confirmed at the executive mansion. There has been no opposition to the reduction. What they have done has been entirely agreeable to the President, namely, in setting forth the particular merits of every collector in the several States where consoli dation is anticipated. For instance. Senators Hoar and Dawes have presented reasons as to which one of the three collectors can be best spared from public service. Now it hap pens that the riierit of every collector is care fully recorded in the Internal Revenue Bu reau, each office being rated at actual in spection, so that the President can form his own opinion of the relative efficiency of the officers now in the service. The value of every collector as a political factor is another matter. This information is what senators and congressrnen-elect have mainly sought to impress upon President Arthur, knowing that the official record would be better known to him than they could tell. It is probable that before the end of this week the programme will have been finally agreed upon. At present all that can be defi nitely said is that a reduction of collection districts will positively be made, to take ef fect July 1, the beginning of the new fiscal year, and the number will be as great as the interests of the service will allow. THE NEW YORK COLLECTORSHIP. An Unconfirmed Report >f a Possible Politi cal Sensation. Cleveland Herald, 12th. Last night the following special dispatch from Washington was received by the Her ald: Washington, June 11.—A story Is in circula tion here to the effect that the papere placed in the hands of Professor Hinsdale, the literary ex ecutor of ihe late President Garfield, to edit and prepare the same for putdicailon, in connection with the speeches and State papers, embrace a number of very important letters and telegrams sent from New York at the time of the nomination of Collector Robertson. The alleged “midnight” dispatch to Mr. Whltelaw Reid, and one dr two others 111 the same line from the same person, but never published, are said to ho in the papers turned over „o Professor Hinsdale Those who take stock in the story say that ir Professor Hinsdale allows the letters and diepatohes bear ing upon the Robertson case to he published there will oe a sensation in New York political circles. It. is averred, also, that there is documen tary evidence in existence showing that Presi dent Garfield had decided to withdraw' the nomination of Robertson and heal the rupture with Cockling, but was finally overruled by Blaine aud Whitelaw Reid. Gentlemen here who were intimate with the late President, however, deuy the truth of the story. A reporter called upon Mr. Hinsdale at his office in the board of education building, and permitting him to read the dispatch as given above, inquired concerning the truth of the statements contained therein. Mr. Hinsdale djftated his response as follows: “Mr. Hinsdale has published no telegraph ic dispatches whatever, relating to President Garfield in any way. He has published in an appendix to the first volume of President Garfield’s Works the so-called Garfield letter to Secretary Chase, published by Shuckers last year. The edition of President Gar field’s Works, edited by Mr. Hinsdale, in two volumes, has already appeared, which volumes are accompanied by a full table of contents and a voluminous index. Nothing more relating to President Garfield is to be published at present by Mr. Hinsdale, who finished the duties intrusted to him bv Mrs. Garfield several months ago. No such letters or dispatches were turned over to Mr. Hins dale for publication.” After completing the clerical work neces sary to reduce the foregoing statement to writing, the reporter suggested that the ques tion as to the existence of the papers refer red to was still left open. “Is not my statement satisfactory?” in quired Mr. Hinsdale. “Scarcely,” ventured the reporter. “The statement lias gone out that you have, or had, such telegrams and letters in your posses sion, and possibly the public, might like to know whether such be tbe ease.” “Is it any business of the public whether such documents exist?” The reporter, on a venture, suggested that if the documents related to public affairs they might properly be considered public busi ness. and in any event would be of great pub lic interest. “Possibly I know a thousand things which would interest the public if I were to blab,” said Mr. Hinsdale, “but I do not blab.” Whereupon the reporter discreetly with drew. Os Mr. Hinsdale's edition of General Gar field’s works it may be said, as set forth in the preface, that the intention was to publish only such speeches and correspondence of the late President as hail been printed from time to time during his life. This being the case it is among the probabilities that none of the private documents, letters and tele grams found their way into Mr. Hinsdale’s uauds. THE ASSASSIN’S CURSE. Afflictions Tlmt Have Fallen Upon Persons Connected with the Gulteau Trial. Woflliingtou Special. Michael Sheahan, one of the jurors of the Guiteau trial, was locked up at the Seventh precinct station, yesterday, for insanity. Ever since the Guiteau trial, his friends have aoticed a strangeness in his manner, and it eerued as if the Guiteau prophecy of evil to efttll all those connected with his convic tion had produced a deep effect on his mind* He would lie awake for hours after going to bed, until finally he became so nervous that he was unable to sleep at all, and had to give up his position as watchman at the Metro politan Hotel, which place he has held for some years. About 12 o’clock Sunday night he rushed out of the house crying for the po lice, and said his wife wanted to murder him, and talked in the most incoherent man ner. Officer Fitzgerald, seeing his condition, took him into custody and locked him up at the Seventh-precinct station. The death of District Attorney CorkhilPs wife was the first event which could be call ed a fulfillment of Guiteau’s prophecy. Juror Hobbs’s wife died. Surgeon-general Barnes, an important witness, died. Judge Porter’s health is said to be wrecked. Mar shal Henry, Bailiff Stahl, Detective McEl fresh. jail-wagon guard Perry Carson and the driver, James Leonard, were dismissed from service. Mr. Noble, a young and im portant witness, died. Rev. Dr. Hicks ha 9 been libeled. Dr. Gray, another expert, was shot at in a Utica asylum, and Dr. McDonald has been or is the subject of investigation in connection with his administration of Wood’s Island, N. Y. Officer Pat. Kearny’s removal from the Baltimore Potomac de partment was only a temporary misfortune, though at one time included among the ful fillments of Guiteau’s curse. Poor Mike Sheahan is well known and well liked by everyone who knew him. GENERAL AND PERSONAL. Japan Expresaas Moat Friendly Feelings for the Uuited States. Washington, June 12.—'The Department of State has been apprised by Mr. Bingham, United States minister at Tokio, of the de livery to the government of Japan the treas ury draft for $785,000, the amount of indem nity fund returned to that government by the United States. In accepting the sum the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Japan ex presses in the most cordial terms the appre ciation of his government at the equity and justice constantly manifested by the United States toward Japan, and alludes with much satisfaction to the present happy relations existing between the people of both coun tries. Senator Van Wyck After air. Miner. Washington, June 12.— Senator Van Wyck has written another letter to the Postmaster general concerning the Nebraska mail route, recently let to Miner. He says: “A vision or a messenger must have appeared to Miner in the prisoner’s dock, advising him to nresent himself at the Postoffice Department at a certain hour to be conveniently in a room adjoining the chief bureau, but not engaged so busily in business or abstracted in the thought of prison gloom into which the bureau was ai ling to plunge him as to pre vent his overhearing the conversation of the chief and a portion of the Nebraska delega tion, and that then, forgetting his prosecu tion, and forgiving his tormentors, he should relieve the perplexed bureau by sending a clerk to convey the joyful tidings that he would cheerfully accept the proffered route. Strange that innocent circumstances should wear a semblance of conspiracy.” Civil-Service Examination*. Washington, June 12.—The civil-service commissioners and chief examiner will leave here in a few days for the purpose of con ducting examinations with local examining boards in various cities. Commissioner Thornan will hold examinations with local boards at Indianapolis on June 25, Detroit on June 27 and 28, Port Huron on June 29, Cleveland on July 2, and Pittsburg on July 6. Commissioner Gregory wili hold exam inations at Chicago on June 19 and 20, Mil waukee on June 22, Buffalo on June 29, Rochester on July 2, and Albany on July 6. Chief Examiner Lyman will hold examina tions at New Orleans on June 19 and 20, Sc. Louis on June 23, Kansas City of June 26, Louisville on June 29, and Cincinnati on July 2. The United States Navy for Sale. Washington, June 12.—Upon his return to Washington, Secretary Chandler will adver tise for sealed proposals for the purchase of two iron-clads, two iron aud twenty-six wooden ships, which have been condemned by the boards of inspection as unfit for further naval service. The following vessels, now at Mare Island, are included in the list: The Benicia, Narragansett, Nyack, Saco, Tuscarora, and Alaska. The remaining ves sels are at Eastern and Southern yards. Pro posals for purchase will be received until about Sept 15. Smuggling: Chinese Women and Children. Washington, June 12.—Tbe commission recently appointed by the Treasury Depart ment to investigate the alleged smuggling of Chinese women and children into the United States, by way of British Columbia, submit ted a report, from which it appears that the practice complained of was not'general, al though there may have been isolated cases. The commission recommends additional vigi lance oil the part of customs officers on the border, and also on the part of the revenue cutter stationed in Puget’s sound. Regulating the Export of Cattle. Washington, June 12.— The Treasury De partment issued important regulations to-day governing the exportation of cattle from this country. In addition to the quarantine cattle-sheds now in use, the vessels engaged in transporting cattle will be inspected and disinfected to prevent the germs of contagion from remaining In apartments in which cat tle are shipped. In view of these regula tions, it is thought England will relax the present stringent rules which seriously em barrass our export of live stock. Revenue District Consolidation. Washington, June 12.-—The President to day had a long conference with Secretary Folger in regard to the question of reorgan izing and consolidating the internal revenue districts so as to meet the requirements of the law. It is proposed to settle this ques tion as soon as possible, and it is expected that the announcement of some perfected plan will be made in a few days. Notes and Personalities. Washington, June 12. The President has ordered the Secretary of the Treasury to withhold the commission of W. S. Furay, to be collector of internal revenue for the Seventh district of Ohio, vice C. C. Walcutt, suspended. General Fred. Knefler is in the city to-day. He returns to Indianapolis to-morrow. Postmasters commissioned: John W. Thomas, Hamilton, Ind.; Mrs. Sarah Hoff man, Locke, Ind.; Linsey S. Barrow, Sway zee, Ind. John Ambler Smith, in behalf of the colored citizens of the Cherokee Nation, filed a protest with the Secretary of the Interior against the payment to Bushy head and his associates of $300,000 for lands ceded to the government by the Oherokees. The Secretary will give the question carefiil consideration. The Attorney-general has decided that the question whether there are already two or more members of the same family in the public service, as provided in the civil service act, is not to be considered by the Civil-service Commission, but by whatever power may be called upon subsequently to pass upon the eligibility of the appoint ment.

FOREIGN NOTES AND NEWS. Extra Precautions to Prevent Rescue of the Dynamite Prisoners. German Diplomats Moving—An Infamous French Nobleman Who Deserves Lynching—General News. THE DYNAMITERS, Continuation of Their Trial—Precautions to Prevent Rescue. London, June 12. —The trial of the men concerned in the dynamite conspiracy was resumed this morning. The steward of the steamship Partha, on which Dr. Gallagher, Barnard Gallagher and Ansbaugh sailed from New York in March last, was cross examined by Ansbaugh, who elicited that no more connection apparently existed be tween Ansbaugh and either of the Galla ghers than between him and other passen gers. The boy employed in Whitehead’s shop at Birmingham refused to swear that Wilson was one of the men who visitejl his eni polyer. Some of the servants in the hotel at Birmingham and other witnesses from there, however, swear that they saw Wilson leaving town with a trunk noticeably heavy. Precautionary measures on an elaborate scale are being taken to prevent a rescue of the prisoners while being conveyed to and from court. Twelve mounted policemen, with drawn swords surround the van con taining the prisoners, and policemen with revolvers ride inside the wagon. The streets are also cleared to allow of the rapid passage of the van. THE CHEN YUEN. Mysterious Movement* of Diplomats Con cerning the Vessel. Berlin, June 12.—After witnessing the trial trip, yesterday, of the Chen Yuen, a new Chinese iron-clad just built at Stettin, Marquis Tseng, on the part of China, had an audience with Count Von Hotzenfelt, Min ister of Foreign Affairs. The latter had just previously received Baron Von Brandt, Ger man Minister to China, on his return from Pekin, and stated that Brandt had proceeded to Paris. The whole affair is subject to much comment here. Prince Von Hohenlohe, German embassador at Paris, is expected here shortly. The Paris Temps maintains that if a con test occurs between France and China be fore the Chen Yuen is ready for sea, the ves sel must be detained by her German builders until hostilities have ceased. It is the inten tion to take the Chen Yuen to China under the German flag and manned by a German crew. A FRENCH SCHEME. A Noble Marquis on Trial for Manslaughter —His Emigration Swindle. Paris, June 12.—The trial begins to-day of Marquis De Rays aud seventeen other per sons charged with manslaughter, in that they dispatched four sailing vessels to the Island of Port Breton, Oceanica, with emi grants, most of whom died on their way or after arrival from hunger and disease. They are also charged with fraud in the sale of imaginary land in Port Breton. In July, 1877, the Marquis advertised land for sale in the island of I\jrt Breton, Ocean ica, and inaugurated schemes for emigration. The Legitimist papers interested themselves in the enterprise, and 5,000,000 trancs were subscribed. Os this sum the Marquis pock eted 2,000,000 francs. It is stated that 700,- 000 hectares of land were sold, although the island only contains 7,000 hectares. The marquis had maps of the island published in which were indicated imaginary houses, churches and roads. He also instituted mi litia and gen d’armerie forces and the neces sary civil officers. On one vessel he sent out, thirty emigrants died passage, 250 more died from hunger and disease after reaching Port Breton, and five more were captured and eaten by the natives of the island. Only one hundred fortunate people succeeded in reaching a friendly country. UI’HOAR IN A THEATER. Details of the Scene at the Production of Wilkie Collins’s Ridiculous Play. London Special to New York Herald. The scene which took place at the Adelphi Theater last night during the performance of Mr. Wilkie Collins’s new drama, “Rank and Riches,” is still a matter of lively discussion. All through the third act the risibility and impatience of the audience had much in creased, and on the fall of the curtain t the end of it, much to their astonishment, Mr. Anson, who played the part of a refugee canary doctor, appeared before it to make a a speech. He commenced by saying that he appeared as an apologist, and then demanded the cause of the behavior of the audience. A storm of disapproval broke forth. Mr. An son then in a most excited manner begged to recall to the audience that he and his associ ates were endeavoring to do their best for a “grand man and novelist.” Here there was a hearty burst of applause, wiiich should in stantly have convinced Mr. Anson that the position and the rights of the audience were unassailable. Mr. Anson, however, had completely his head. He continued in the same violent strain. Only a few of his remarks could be heard amid the uproar. “Let the curtain fall, he shouted, before you nronounce on the play,” and “One of the ladies is entirely prostrated by your conduct,’’and “This oppo sition, I daresay, is organized.” Here, amid afresh storm, a gentleman in the dress circle shouted back at times: “You are entirely wrong, Mr. Anson,” and “We don’t want to be lectured.” Others joined in the colloquy, but tbe remainder of this extraordinary and unrehearsed scene was enacted amid laugh ter, jeers, hisses and applause. Mr. Anson, after more gesticulations, retired. The fourth act proceeded with blit, a slight diminution of demonstrations, and at the end, in response to a sarcastic call for the au thor, Mr. Anson again appeared and said that Mr. Collins was not in the house, a fact for which every right thinking man must have felt grateful. The fact is that the audience was decidedly patient and entirely unbiased and prepared to receive the piece with the re spect due to so well-known a novelist as Mr. Wilkie Collins. Tlieir laughter was entirely spontaneous and was caused soley by the ab surdities of the play. The story of the plot is as follows An earl’s damrhteraud her maid are in love with the same young man. There is another maid, whose name her ladyship assumes in an inn parlor at a meeting of London socialists; an elderly duke, who surrenders his affianced bride, the earl’s daughter, to a lawyer’s clerk, who early in the piece has the mis fortune to have one of his ribs broken in her ladyship’s defense, and the Italian refugee who makes his living by doctoring sick biros. Such are some of the incidents and char acters of a play which the performers had the misfortune to represent und which the novelist had the unaccountable and astonish ing impulse to conceive. That he should have produced such a piece, that the man ager of the theater could have allowed the reputation of the novelist to dazzle his eyes, and that so experienced an actor should have committed the indiscretion of challenging an audience to express its feelings are mysteries of literature and of human nature which only some great philosopher could solve. It is a long time since such a scene has been witnessed in a Loudon theater. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Tbe Juror Not Killed by Poison. London, June 12.—1n the Commons,Trevel yan, Chief Secretary for Ireland, stated that the body of the juror, the Dublin hotel keeper, whose death, it was reported, was caused by poison administered by the In vincibles, has been exhumed, and no trace of poison was discovered.

Lord Lansdowne took a week to decide whether he would accept the government of Canada; his family and friends all advised him to do so.

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and Provision Markets. Indianapolis, June 12. A walk through the general merchandise mar kets develops few, if any, new features worthy of note. The general aspects of the business situation have shown considerable improvement sinoe the Ist of June. The fear of disastrous labor strikes has been generally averted; the Eastern money market, which threatened com plications a few weeks ago, is now iu a very easy and solid condition, and the crop outlook, which forms the basis of our material prosperity, has Improved to a considerable degree. Thus the more serious indications of adversity, which have retarded the spring movements, have either been removed or much ameliorated. Tbe influences that bid fair to prevail over the fall trade may be looked to to give an impulse to commercial transactions that will in a great measure compensate for the dullness of the first half of the year. Conservatism and moderation are still valuable principles in the conduct of business; but with due care there seems to be no reason why 1883 should not yet be recorded in commercial history as a year of sound pros perity and moderate activity. The dry gnodfi tnen Bay that trade is good With them for .Tune. hardware dealers report business as being better than iu any former year. Druggists speak of trade as being quiet, but no morn so than usual at this season of the year. With grocers there Is a mod erate activity. No change in prices since the advance in roasted coffees noted in our last re port. Sugars were reported easier to-duv, but we make no change incur quotations. Rice Is more active and prices are firm and tending up ward. The egg market is tame; stocks accumu lating. There has been rather morn doing in creamery butter within the past day or two, but nil other kinds are dull; old stock,or which|there is a Urge supply, will no doubt have to he sold as grease. Cheese fairly active, but prices are easy. Potatoes, both old aud new, were fairly active and steady at prices quoted. Foreign Iniiiß h ive begun to move more freely, and or anges aiv scarce ami higher. Strawberries less plenty and prices stronger. Vegetables in good supply and puces tending lower. The wool market continues tame and uninteresting; prices barely steady at quotations. The provision market is sick, and prices weaker all along the line. GRAIN. Tbe local grain markets are still In an unsatis factory condition. Dealers show little interest, and transactions are few. The Board of Trade Price Current says of whet that the local mar kets show weaker feeling than last quotations. Offerings free, but buyers holding off. Seaboard is weak and lower.

ATEIVS HAIR VIGOR restores with the gloss and freshnoss of youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich brown color, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use light or red hair may be darkened, thin hair thickened, and baldness often, though uot always, cured. It checks falling of tho hair, and stimulates a Weak and sickly growth to vigor. It prevents and cures scurf and dandruff, and heals nearly every disease peculiar to the scalp. Asa Ladies' Hair Dressing, the Vigor is unequalled; it contains neither oil nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and silken in api>earanco, and imparts a delicate, agreeable, and lasting perfume. J. W. Bowen, proprietor of the McArthur {Ohio) Enquirer, says: “Ayer’s Hair Vigor is a most excellent preparation for the hair. I speak of it from my own experience. Its use promotes the growth of new hair, and makes it glossy and soft. The Vigor is also a sure cure for dandruff. Not within my knowledge has the preparation ever failed to give entire satisfaction.” Mrs. O. A. Prescott, writing from 18 Elm Street, Charlestown Mans., April 13, 1862, says: “Two years ago, about two-thirds of my hair came off. It thinned very rapidly, and I was fast growing bald. On using Ayer’s Hair Vigor tho falling stopped, and anew growth commenced, and in about a month my head was completely covered with hair. It has continued to grow, Rlid is now as good as before it fell. I regularly used one bottle of the Vigor, but now use it occa sionally as a dressing." We have hundreds of similar testimonials of the efficacy of Ayer’s Hair Vigor. It needs but a trial to convince tho most skeptical of its value. PREPARED BY Dr. J. C. AVER CO., lowell, Mass.

THE RAILROAD INTERESTS, Prospects that Our City Will Have Another Standard-Gunge Hoad. The T.pane of the C., A. A C. to tlie 1., B. W. Declared Off— Uenetul and Local Matters of Interest. —i TO BB STANDARD GAUGE. The Marion Indianapolis Road To Be Bnilt—The Project Taking Definite Shape. John Brownlee and other parties Interested In the building of tbs Marion Indianapolis road were in the city yesterday, and are strong In the belief that the road will be built. Until quite recently it has been proposed to construct the road narrow gauge, but parties who offer to take the bonds do so only with the understand ing that it shall be a standard'gange road; there fore the narrow gauge business has wisely been abandoned. Mr. Brownieo states that tlie dis tance from Marion to Indianapolis by the pro posed line will be sixty-eight miles, and fifty two miles of the right of way have already been secured and $124,000 iu subsidies voted Up to the preseut time. The parties at the head of the enterprise have conferred with M. E. Ingalls, president of the Cincinnati, In dianapolis. St Louis Chicago road, oh regards an entrauoe into the city, nud he offers them very favorable terms for usiug the Big Four track, facilities, freight depot, etc the new cotn- any proposing to connect with the Cincinnati, ndianapolis, st. I.oms A Chicago, a short dis tauce eaat or the Belt road, from which point the Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Kt. Louis A Chicago has a double track. The purtios who are to pur chase the bonds arc anxious that the road should be built northward to fort Wayne, and it is highly probable, Mr. Brownlee states, that the road will be built from Fort Wayne to ludian apolis. shortening the distance between these two cities souie twenty-two miles. The several gentlemen interested express a determination to build the road this year from Marion to In dianapolis, and nope to be throwiug dirt within thirty days. THE LEASING SCHEME OFF. The 1., B. W. Will Not Lease the C., A. Sc C.—The Dutch Bondholders Out of the Notion. There good authority for the statement that the Indiana, Bloomington A Western syndicate has abandoned the idea of securing control of the Cleveland, Akron A Columbus road. It is true, as the Journal stated, that Austin Corbin visited Europe to meet the Dutch bondholders and confer on the matter, but through a mistake as to the point of meeting the more important of the Dutch bondholders, whom he crossed the water to confer,with he did. not meet, and finally Mr. Corbin returned, not accomplish ing his mission, and since his return the corre spondence ha* been of such a character as to Indicate that the Dutchmen were not anxious to turn the property over to the I- B. dr W. people. Then the Cleveland, San dusky A Cincinnati Railroad Company, whioh leases what is known as the Ohio division to the L. B. A W.. are considerably exercined about the matter, fearing that such a lease would affect their interests. The C., 8. AC. people are also creating a disturbance over the 1., B. dr W. working with the New York, Pennsylvania A Ohio via Urban a and the Nickel-plate, also, tuning the ground that working with such con nection is contrary to the spirit of the leasing agreement, which says that the 1., B. A W. shall haul all through business the furthest possible distance for earnings to the C., 8. AC. road, whioh rental increases with increase of earnings by the L, B. A W. company, which operates the road. CORRECT IN THEORY. Intimation that Pennsylvania Agents Are Receiving Commissions. Iu commenting on an article which recently appeared in the Journal showing the position taken by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company against paying commissions, the Railway Pas senger Agent says; “This platform is, m theory, apparently a sound one, aud, were all the lines In the country working in perfect harmony, there might be a possibility of its geueral adop tion: but competition, which is the mainspring to all live business, is increasing among rail roads rapidly as uew lines are opened, and so long as active competition exists among rail roads, so long will the weaker and leas favored lines adhere to the old plan of paying commis sion for business. The tnillenium In railway matters is a long way distant yet; and until it is come, the active passenger agent will cling to the old devices for Increasing his traftio until ho inveuts better ones. “It is easy for the Pennsylvania people to lay they have, by increasing the salaries of their own agents, given them a fair equivalent for their lost commissions, but it will bejla hard matter for them to demonstrate that their agents are satis fied to accept the nituatioti as the company has arranged it. The agents are, no doubt, gratified by their increased salaries, but it is to be doubted that, they are so stupendously grateful that their commissions are discontinued." THE MACLEOD SURPRISE. Why He Did Not Become General Manager of the Union Railway Company. The reason now assigned for the surprise that John MacLeod did not assume the position of vice-president and general manager of the Union Railway Company is that the articles of associa tion not admit of a person holding such offi ces uuless he is an official of one of the proprie tary lines, consequently his acts might lead to litigation. This clause in the artioles of associa tion was not discovered until his appointment liad been officially announced. It is further stated that should the Untou Railway Company be reorganised there is a strong probability that he will be elected to the position of general man ager, aud will accept. Several important mat ters are hanging on this reorganization scheme, and for that reason President McCrea is anxious that the directors of the Union Railway Com pany meet at un early day and carry out the pro posed plan. GENERAL NEWS. Western Roads Should Protect Tlieiu-ulves in a Similar Manner. “The New England Railroad Club," represent ing the various railway managements of that section, recently decided, by a unanimous vote, “that on and after Sept. 1, 1833, we will not ac cept cars with defective brakes, ladders, handies or running-boards, without the right to put Iu good running order at the expense of the road offering; and that a road receiving a carded oar shull hare the right to repair the defects enu merated on the card and make bill to the road carding. This is wise action, and similar action should be taken by Western roads. The Passenger Men in Session. The general passenger agents are now In ses sion at the Pacific Hotel, Chicago, 8. F. Pierson, vloe-oonmiissioner, being present. The subject for discussion yesterday was the competitive busi ness between Pittsburg, Oolumbus. Dayton, Cin cinnati and Louisville, and seaboard points, and •nob other competitive business os immediately ooncerns the cities mentioned. The regular or der for to-day will he the discussion of the com fetltive business east, north ami west from □dtanapolis and Terre Haute. The subjects for discussion on Thursday will be the competitive business of tile Northern cities, and such unfin ished business as may develop from the preced ing days. Encouraging to Creditors. For the benefit of croditors of the Indianapo lis, Decatur A Springfield Company, the Journal -quotes the remark mads last evening by H. B. Hammond, who is now iu the oliy: The 1., D. A 8. company has paid iu the past all the honest debts It. owed, and everv man whose claim is just will be paid in the future. The property is now In the hands of trustees who are honorable uieu. Miscellaneous Notes. The bridge of the Canada Southern railroad at Niagara la to be completed about Dee. 1, at an estimated cost of $590,000. .About 300 men are at work. Mr. Vanderbilt is understood to provide the funds. Mr. George E. Mansfield, theohamplon of very narrow-gauge roads, proposes to build a two foot guage mad up Mount Kearsofe, at North Uon way, seme 2,700 feet aaeont. The proposed road will wind round and round the mountain, making a journey of some fifteen miles to the top. It will be an ordinary traction road, with no cogwheels, the grade not being over 200 feet to the mile. The Pennsylvania Company Is about to enforce a rule which, although on thv. rule book for a long time, lies been inoperative. Passenger train men will, therefore, no longer be allowed to smoke while on duty. The propnrty known as the Bedford Springs has been purchased by the South Pennsylvania Railroad Company for $252,000. They have promised to spend $500,000 additional In the way of improvement*. The company shops will also bo located there. Next Friday is the day eppointedTor the meet ing of the stockholders of the East Tenncesee, Virginia Georgia to act upon certain proposed 1 eases, etc. It is expected that after this meet ing la held the terms of the arrangement with the Southwest system will be made public. The Pennsylvania railroad traokmen have be gun clearing their road, literally cleaning it, as 1* done every year. All ballast is removed and the accumulated dost swept from about the ties. The ballast is then replaced. It prevents tics from rottiug and a dust cloud is never raised by a passing train. The general office* of the Erie A Pittsburg railroad, and the Ashtabula A Pittsburg rail road, which have been for some time in Youngs town, 0., will be moved, as soon as the necessary buildings are completed, to Lawrence Junction, Pa three miles from New Castle, where the two roads intersect. A large and handsome build ing, three stories high, will be built there, and a ihe company are owners of about 157 acres of desirable laud, it Is likely shops will also be put up. PERSONAL AND LOCAL.

Interview in New York Paper. ”A meeting of the trunk line presidents has been talked about a good deal lately.” “Well, I am not a president any longer.” Mr. Vanderbilt said in reph', and as he spoke be laughed pleasantly. lam not a presi dent, and I don’t care whether they meet or not. But what do they want to meet for, anyhow? The Grand Trunk cutting rates? Why, of course the Grand Trunk is cutting rates. It wouldn’t do any business at all if it didn’t cut rates. The only thing for me to do is to say how far they may cut them. That’s all there is about that. ‘There isn’t much need of a presidents’ meeting if the cutting of rates by the Grand Trunk is all the presidents would have to talk about.” “Stocks are a little higher than they were when you went away.” “Are they? Ido not take much interest in the stock market. I hardly know what the price of anyone stock is.‘ I don’t care about the movements or prices. I have nothing to sell, no matter wliat people say about it—and, for that matter, I have noth ing to buy? I have what I want to hold, and don't care to sell or buy. So, you see. the stock market has nothing to interest me.” “But you will buy the West Shore road bv and by, will you not?” the reporter modestly asked. “West Shore? What should I want of the West Shore road? Why, I should have two elephants on my hands then—that is, I should think that I had. No, Ido not want to buy the West Shore road; I certainly have no use for it. Opened to Newburg. is it? Have they succeeded in filling up that hole up there where the tracks used to disappear regularly every night? I hope the men who built the road will make money out of it. I presume they will, but they may nut do so well as they expected. At any rate, I have got all the railroads I want, f have not the slightest wish to control any more.” Huitinesa Method* Iu Indianapolis. Lafayette Courier. Indianapolis is no longer fed ou manna, nor do the ravens come bearing strawberries to Brother Reed and the prophets. Her good people have at last come to a realizing sense of the simple methods by which great cities are built, and are utilizing her ample capital and rich resources in ways that are helpful and hopeful. A strong syndicate ot her capitalists has just bought a narrow-gauge railroad, and will extend it to the Missouri river. Her Board of Trade is not a cover lor Chicago gambling, but a factor in legitimate business—the fostering of manufacturing, and animated by a united and enthusiastic purpose to build up iudianapolis is doing great good. This is what we covet for La fayette. Track-Laying on the Northern UaeSfic. Helena, M, TANARUS., June 12.—The first train on the Northern Pacific reached Helena at 11 a. m., to-day.

How Hard-Headed Men Esti timate Some Things Whleh They Don’t Understand. Anybody who has lea a domestic Ufo know, how common such things as tho backache .and pains in the cheat are among the women who do the work. Often—and perhaps generally— the distresses are borne without much com plaint. Tho women get about, and tlie machine ry of the house goes ou. Beyond this, those coarsegrained animals whom Now England women call “the men folks,’’ seldom look. So long as their wives or daughters are not actually in bed, under the doctor’s care, the average thick-skinned husband and father gives the sub ject no attention. At tlie sumo time* the poor household drudges—who deserve a better fate creep around, broom or utensils in hand, up stairs, down stairs aud out-of-doors, doing that woman’s work whioh “is never done." Losses ot loved wives and fair girls—losses whose sud denness and unexpectedness astonish those wooden pated husbands and fathers—fall, seem ingly out of a olear sky, and form the logical sequel to the story of neglect. Now, you men who stand at the heads of ten thousand such homes, allow us to drop a word in your reoeptlve oars. If these women of yours are worth having, they Mre worth saving. Tho buokache—that pain in tho chest! What are they but indications of some organic troublo of the kidneys, the heart, or the lunesf End it at ouce by the application of BENSON’S CAPCINK POROUS PLASTER. It will soothe That nerv ous distress, drive away that pain, banish that dull, weary backache, give new strength to tho body aud fresh hope to the lieurt. No other plast ers will do this. The Benson's Plaster, however, is not made to sell—but to heal. It is a remedy whioh never yet broke its promise—aud never will. Your druggist has it. But before paying your 25 cents and putting the plaster iu your pocket, look for the word CAPCINK cut in tho middle. Heabtirv A Johnson, I’haruiacoutloal Chemists, Now York. BUSINESS DIRECTORY.

Mary Trout has begun suit against William F. Trout to recover $333.50, the circumstances of the case being somewhat peculiar. The com plaint alleges that in 1870 the plaintiff, who re sided at Actou, intrusted to the defendant the stun of $230, to be taken to Harrison’s Bank, thtbolty, and deposited to her credit, and it is ffiftiier alleged that he failed to do this, but converted the money to his own use, and has since refused to pay it. However, he afterward gave to the mother of the plaintiff a promissory note for S2OO, but it is claimed that this was never accepted in payment for the original sum. Judgment is asked for the $230, and interest for seven years. Michael Bhulthles has beguu suit against Jacob Voegtle, asking $5,000 damages. It is claimed in the complaint that the defendant, by his per sonal endeavors and testimony, caused the plaintiff to be adjudged Insane and sent to the asylum, so that he (Voegtle) might appropriate and get patented in his own name certain, inven tions which Sliulthies had made, and which he accordingly did, and is making money out of them. Delia Spencer lias applied for a divorce from Ambrose 11. Spencer, alleging oruelty, failure to provide ami abandonment. The Foreman Tragedy. The grand jury fulled to return au indictment against Milton G. Foreman for the murder of his mother and sister, and there is little probabil ity, from the present outlook, that the guilty parties will be brought tojustioe.

COMMENCEMENT SEASON. Several Schools Conclude the Work of the Year. The Exercises at Butler University—The Fe male Seminary and the Kindergar ten Training School. The literary societies at Butler University are holding high carnival this week. Last night the usual large audience, stirring music and fra grant decorations were the inspiring surround ings with which the Pythonian society held its twenty-seventh annual exhibition and diploma granting exercises. M. A. Morrison, of the class of ’B3, chairman of the evening, introduced the i speakers with dignity. The society presented its best material, and the programme rendered was the outgrowth of research and careful pre j paratiou. J. A. Koutz, in his oration on “Puri tans and Puritanism,” was both just and elo quent. He said Puritanism came into the world at a divinely appointed time. It shone in its greatest splendor in America Its work will not be accomplished until civiliza tion is free from master and slave, in religion, morals and politioa. Lute C. Breedon, in bis essay on the “Philosophy of Progress,” welcomed the unrest and dis satisfaction which cause men to abandon dog mas and to discard false theories. Dissatisfac tion and retrogression are the elements leading to progress—a continual round of action and reaction. Mr. Breedon endeared himself to the audience by using well a clear, strong voice. C. C. Riley declaimed “The Dying Alchemist.” He controlled his voice excellently, and not a sylla ble of his performance fell unheeded. Sherman E. burgess, in a worthy essay on “National Sympathy,” held that all animals of a class ex hibit certain sympathy for each other, and this characteristic in man causes race prejudices to yield and cements barbaric people into civil ized nations. The time approaches when the golden thread of human sympathy shall bind heart to heart and ruind to mind, the wide world over. Lot D Guffin convinced the reason of the audience by his strong argument on the “Jury System.” He held that crime was not dimin ishing; that the penalties of the law are suffi cient, and therefore the legislative power is not blameworthy; that the blame must rest against the power that applies the law. The jury sys tem is a failure; it entails heavy expense; It leads to many and long trials; It depends upon the ignorance or misinformation of the twelve men for justice, and its decisions are involved iu uncertainty. Nineteenth century progress demands a surer method and swifter punishment in dealing with criminals. The remedy might be found in a trained jury of the judiciary. Mr. Gufllu was eminently practical in hie remarks, and bis performance will rank with any production of the commencement week. The society graduated two members, Thomas Ideu and M. A. Morrison, each of whom has been connected with the society throughout his col lege career. To them, In behalf of tbe Python!- ans, John B. Kuhns, in a speech of noble mean ing, presented the society’s diploma. Mr. Ideu responded, and the closing words were eloquent ly appropriate. This morning the Demia Butler Society will give its exhibition at 10 o’olock, and to-night the Philokunans will hold their graduating ex ercises. The class-day frolic will occur this afternoon. Indianapolis Female Seminary. Roberts Park Church was completely filled last night, more than two thousand persons be ing in attendance upon the commencement ex ercises of the Indianapolis Female Seminary. The graduates were eleven in number, and there was a profusion of dowers, the floral tributes taking the most elegant and tasteful forms, bestowed upon the young ladles taking part iu the exercises.

The reception of the Indianapolis Female Seminary to tho gradual! ng class, will take place this evening as originally announced. Kindergarten Training-School. The graduation exercises of the Indiana Kin dergarten Training-school were concluded at English’s Opera-house last evening in the pres ence of a rather large audience. The work of the graduating class was exhibited, and made a very creditable showing. The exercises of the evening were opened with a graduate’s inurch, by Miss Maria Lewis, and, after prayer by Rev. H. A. Edson, a vocal solo was given by Miss Ma guire. Essays were read by Miss G. H. Frotn holz on “Froebel’s Science;” by Miss M. G. Lewis, on “Gifts and Occupation;’’ Miss A. M. Odear, “The Free Kindergartens;” Miss J. Skillen, “Woman.” and Miss S. J. Brandt, “Our Babies.” The essays were all very grace fully written, and the subjects were all well treated. The remarks of Miss Brandt on “Our Babies” were exceptionally bright. The exer cises were interspersed with some very delight ful music by Mrs. W. C. Lynn, Mrs. 8. L. Mor rison, Mrs. Winchester and Miss W’ilder. Fol lowing the exercises Hon. Stanton J. Peelle briefly addressed the graduating class, and pre sented the diplomas. The graduates were Misses H J. Brandt, Helen Craig, M. G. Lewis and A. M. Odear, Indianapolis, Ind.; M. T. Cooper, Phila delphia, Pa.; G. 11. Froiuholz, Nebraska; A. L. Oliver, Circleville, 0., and 8. A. Skillen, Pendle ton, Ind.

THE NEW BISHOP. A Correspondent’s Ideas of the Man and His Methods of Work. A contributor to the Richmond Palladium says of Doctor Knickabacher. the bishop-elect of this diocese: “Or the bishop-elect, Dr. Knlckerbacber, little will besaid, as just uow the papers are full of norices of his Hie and labors. He is a man of great tenacity of purpose, untiring energy and self-forgetful devotion to his work. He lias the tact, which clergymen of his okurch are said to lack, of getting the laiiy to work as readers, teachers, preachers, etc. If all that is heard of him is correct, within ten years there will be no town of any size in hie diocese which, if it has not a consecrated edifice of his church, will, at least he a missionary station. He may be said to resemble John Wesley in organizing power. While, In his own churob, he has asurplloed choir and an at tractive ritual. yet he is a man who can adapt himself; indeed, he is rather more at home iu a rural house of prayer, where the service is ren dered with the utmost simplicity. His family consists of himself and wife. It Is thought, as he is a man of great simplicity and inured to hardship by years of frontier life, he wiM prob ably not occupy the episcopal residence on the Circle at Indianap alls, but the more unpretend ing one next to Grace Church, on Pennsylvania street, which he will reopen and use as a bish op’s church. The bishop-elect is the choice of the laity, confirmed by the clergy. Indeed, it is stated that the latter were willing to accept al most any name which might have been “sent to them by that body, which has a more permanent interest than they in the prosperity of the dio cese. The laity' are the fixed, the clergy the To taling body, at least in the West. “Dr. Worthington, of Detroit, the choice of the olcrgy of Indiana at this convention, as he had been before of the clergy of Michigan when their episcopate was vacated, has one of the most prosperous congregations west of the Alle ghenies. His church is always crowded, and every pew is rented. As the magnet attracts the iron filings, so this popular rector of Detroit attraots to himself all those who come within reach of his mild eye and winsome voice. He has great tact, ro illustrate which an anecdote is told of him: A lady called about some church work, and sent her oard to his study, when pres ently he appeared in the violet dressing-gown that she had given him the previous Christmas. Hardly had she gone when another came, and lo! the reverend gentleman stood before her in a black cassock, of which she had been the donor. He is unmarried, and said to be wealthy.’’ CHRISTIAN SEMI-CENTENNIAL. Conclusion of the Celebration—Yesterday’s Proceedings. The celebration of the semi-oentennial of the Central Christian Church concluded last night, and the series of services that have been held have been unusually Interesting. The meeting yes terday morning was devoted to the pioneers of the church, Revs. 8. K. Hoshour, L. H. Jameson and Dr. R. T. Brown. The latter delivered an address on “Religious Events in Indiana,” iu which he discussed at length the rise and progress of the ohurch in this and adjoining States. Mr. Jameson conducted the opening servioes and Prof. Hoshour delivered the benediction. The afternoon was devoted to social enjoyment. The evening exercises consisted of congrega tional singing and solos by Mrs. Zeida Seguin- Wallace. Rev, Isaao Evrett, of Cincinnati, de livered an address entitled: “Our Work for the Future,” which was listened to with rapt atten tion. The church was elaborately decorated. The following centenuial ode, by Dr. R. T. Brown, was sung by the congregation: “There will be a handful of corn in the earth, on the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon.” Psalms lxxii 16. High on the barren mountain’s top A mtte of corn was sown— Anon it grew a glorious crop That wav’d like Lebanon. j So In the early dawning day, A trusting faithful few Here saw the glorious morning ray. And hail’d its early dew. God was their Shepherd and His word Their only creed and guide— Bis name they worship’d and ador’d And bow’d to none beside. We now around His altar stand, A host, with hearts aglow, And honor give that faithful hand Os fifty years ago. Amusement Matters. The “Wild West” combination gave another performance at the fair grounds yesterday, to a large crowd, and left for Day Urn last night. The Park and Zoo are both drawing good audiences, and are giving excellent shows. There will be a matinee at the Park this and Friday afternoons, and at the Zoo to-morrow and Saturday afternoons. Mr. James V. Cock’s benefit lakes place to morrow evening at the Grand Opera-house It promises to he one of the most popular amuse ment events of the season. The reserve sale is already large, both boxes and a number of tbe best seats on the first floor being taken. Avery strong bill lias been arranged, the priuoipal fea tures of which are the performance of “The Octoroon” by the Clio Dramatic Club, and the appearance of Scott's Memphis Students in plantation melodies, either one of which furnish a fine entertainment alone. Notes from the ’Squires. ’Squire Thompson, yesterday, fined Morris Haley for deaeration of the Sabbath, the of fense consisting in shooting a neighbor’s cat. Haley should have pleaded Jusilflcatlon. ’Squire Feibleinan, yesterday, placed Worth Wilson under SSOO bond for surety of the peace,ou promise that he would leave town before night. The prosecuting witness was Mrs. Belle Clarke, a respectable lady living in Palmer’s block, who is his sister-in-law, whom he has mercilessly persecuted for many months in various ways. George Barter, yesterday, instituted surety of peace proceedings beiore ’Squire Ferbleman, against his dear brother Ira. When the Harter gang are unable to protect themselves, without legal interference, it is time for the respectable people to flee to (he hilltops. Successful Scholastic. Miss Kate M. Graydon, an alumnus of Butler University, and teacher in the city schools, has reoeived the degree of Master of Arts on exam ination before the faculty of the Btate Univer sity at Bloomington. Miss Graydon’a speoialty as a student is in Greek, language and literature, in which she is well known as a proficient, both as teacher and student. The examinations for the M. A. degree are iu extent and difficulty essentially the same as at Columbia College, New York, and for non-resident students to excel iu them is exceedingly meritorious. Broad Ripple Excursion. E. M. Dasher’s little steam launoh “Murray Keller” will make its first trip this afternoon, and a special train will leave the corner of Vir ginia avenue and the Union tracks at 3 o’clock this afternoon—promptly at 3 o’clock—especial ly for the newspaper men and Invited guests. All of the papers in the olty, daily and weekly, are cordially Invited to send represenatives without further invitation. A Stranger Adjudged Insane. James Breen was yesterday adjudged insane by a commission consisting of Drs. Oliver and Ferreii and Justice Pease, His home is at Wa terbary Conn., and he was pioked up on the streets here a few nights ago and sent to jail for drunkenness. It has sfnoe been developed that he is Insane, aud he will bo sent to tho asylum to-day. The drunkard swills aloliobol. Wise men use Samaritan Nervine, the kiug ol all remedies. AN INTERESTING GAME.
