IQSTOH STORM, ELEGANT DISPLAY I The revival in the Wesleyan church increases in interest every night; the spiritual tide of the meeting has risen above all expectations, and crowds continue to llow that way every evening. Elder T. II. Clinton, one of the oldest and most successful preachers and noted re-vivalist of the Miami conference, is in the city assisting Elder Smothers. Elder J.

B. Davis returned Saturday evening from Pennsylvania, and rejoined them in the good cause. The meeting will be contin "1-2 rn DBH GOODS, New York Dramatic News: "The Wages of Sin" is a remarkably strong melodrama and has made an unquestionable hit at the 14th street theatre. The acting is highly creditable and the performance altogether very enjoyable to the lovers of melodrama. How long it will be played at the 14th street theatre can not now be said, but it will probably be seen there as long as the business will warrant and the indications now are that the receipts will be large for some time to come.

The wages of sin is a deserving play, and like most deserving things, it is succeeding. LeonO. Bailey, administrator of the estate of Michael II Mack deceased, has brought suit for damages against the C. St. L.

Meer ued all week if the interest keeps up. Indianapolis Journal: The Cincinnati saloons are. in a condition of mind over an enemy in the camp in the shape of saloons that have begun selling beer at three cents a glass. There are already one hundred and fifty of these three-cent saloons, and the number is growing. The worst feature of the innovation to the live-cent saloonsis that that the three-cent saloons throw in a "lunch" with their sales.

A Detroit company is said to be at the bottom of it, and the Cincinnait men are talking of reviving the Ross Brewers' association for protection. A Syracuse dispatch savs that the baggage and scenery of the Campbell Dramatic company were attached there to satisfy a hotel bill in Oswego. Frank Campbell, the manager, raised the amount due and the property was released. The company then gave security for their board bill and left for tin-east It will perhaps be remembered that Frank Campbell and wife Gabriella McKeen opened the Grand after its rebuilding, and the company broke here, Mrs. Campbell refusing to play with a woman in the company with whom she claimed the manager, one Layton, was too familiar for chastity, conrng before the curtain in a semi-undress and giving the other a berating in excellent king's English.

Those who have heard Lee Kel- ley call Will Paddock "the bugler" have always wondered how Will came to inherit the name. Lee told us confidentially yesterday how it was. Wheu the two were crossing the ocean on their way to France, a whale was sighted about a mile away, and everybody on the ship was up to see it. The boys had no field glasses, and had to themselves with looking at the strange animal from afar off by the naked eye.Will's curiosity at last overcame his native modesty, and he stepped up to one who had a spyglass with "Mister, won't you let me look at that thing a minute through your The ship-load roared. Will got his glass, but was known through the balance of the voyage, by everybody, as "the bug Those who missed "The Iv Leaf" at the Phillips Saturday eve ning and the house was very small compared to the crowds we turn out to a negro-minstrel affair missed a very pretty play and a splendid company.

The play is a good one, and the company, which is full of splendid, talent, spared no pains to please, though their audience was not a warm one, by any means: Several beautiful Irish scenes were presented, so natural they hardly seemed like stage-work, especially one in which all the characters on were Irish, and very naturally so, and in which excellent dancing was done to the music of an Irish bag-pipe, handled by a genuine Irish artist in a style never seen equalled in this country. The instrument makes queer music, very different from anything else in existence, and still it is quite pleasing, and when to its piping good dancers welted the floor in the midst of the splendidly appropriate scenery, it didn't take much of a stretch of imagina -tion to make one think one was right in the land of potatoes and poverty. The singing was excel-' lent. The scenery was grand, especially the ivy-tower and its accessories. The play is a grand improvement on the usual Irish play no landlord, no evictions, no clap-trap: full of good sentiment, pretty dialogue and stirring The company could hardly be improved.

night last winter, while the train on which he was working neared London, Shelby county, the engineer whistled for down brakes. Mack responded to the call, and was on top of the cars when the lower cross-beams of a bridge knocked him oil' and killed him. The night was very stormy and dark. There will be a Iloosier spelling match given in the parlors of the First M. E.

church on Wednesday evening, Oct. 14th under the auspic-9S of the young people. It will be conducted after the manner of thirty years ago, the participants characterizing themselves in dress, manners and costumes of hoosiers in early days. The older people are especially invited to come and bring im 1 1 1 fil 1 a candle wun tnem. ne noosier schoolmaster will preside.

General admission 10 cents. Children under fourteen years 5 cents. Those who are raising the neces sary tunas tor me encampment about a hundred dollars report that tney have nearly all they need Only one man refused to donatea dry goods man who said he would give twenty dollars to keep it away, claiming that it didn't do him any good. The collector told him he didn't care to argue it and left him. Last Saturday night, in his inimitable style, Justice John S.

Lyle, at his ollice. married Mr. An drew Goodwin and Miss Hose Ed wards. Mr. Goodwin is the driver of Smith Dunham's delivery wagon, and an industrious and worthy young man.

Miss Edwards is a pretty and vivacious little lady. May tney enjoy connubial prosper ity and happiness. The night services at north A street rienus meeung-nouse were unusually interesting. After a period devoted to silent worship and inward review, Wm. Foulke arose and delivered a short sermon, full of thought and power.

His subject was the visitor which knocks at the door of every heart. We have heard Friend William a number of times, but we never heard him de liver so impressive a discourse be fore. He was followed by the always interesting Sarah Button Her spirituality is large, her heart always full of love and sympathy, and her words are redolent with Instruction, hope and love. A good congregation was present. Conners' orchestra furnished the music at the Phillips Saturday evening, to the great satisfaction or an.

iney maae tneir usual excellent music. Conners orchestra fits in with Jim Dobbins in an opera-house "like the paper on the wall." They owe a great deal to him. He was one of the lirst to recognize the ability that lay in this orchestra and the possibilities he-fore, it if encourageds a it should be, and put it in his opera-house, thus giving it employment at a time when that was needed, and beside encouraging it, giving it ample chance to play good music when there was "something in it" besides the fun of the thing; meantime putting them in the way of learning stage and cue music. These opportunities they and utilized, until we question if a I etter theater orchestra can be found in the state outside of Indianapolis, even if I there. We are glad to see the two together again.

Hlf-LE BLOCK. "ON Last Saturday evening, about 5 o'clock, Theodore Woodhurst's stable was discovered to be on lire, and the alarm given. Before the names could be extinguished, it was damaged to the amount of four hundred dollars. It was fully insured. It was fired about four weeks ago, and the repairs from that burning were only completed Friday evening, and the paint was not yet dry.

This is the third time it has been fired, and there is no doubt that it has always been the workTof an incendiary. Saturday afternoon Mr. Wood hurst's family were all the villain had a good opportunity. Luckily, the owner did not have his winter supply of grain on hand. The department is complimented on the excellent work it performed after the alarm was given.

To-day the only case called in the circuit court, in the forenoon, was that of Mary J. Lemons vs. the II. 1. railroad.

This was a su for damages for the death of her husband, caused by said road, amount claimed being 810,000, brought here on a change of venue from Union county. Before going to trial a compromise was effected by which the rpad pays her one thousand dollars and pays all costs in the case. Commissioner Tom Hunt and the Kev. Arthur A. Curme were the only two Kansas exeursionists who made a start this morning.

The remaining travelers are to start tonight and join Messrs. Hunt and Curme at Indianapolis. It is now probable that Dr. Furnas will not go. Sam Tracey's little boy and girl got into a box of nux vomica and phosphorus pills and chewed up a lot, but luckily swallowed but little, if any of them.

The family were frightened and sent for Dr. Iutiz, who promptly administered an emetic which quickly acted. Rloom Zane removed his familv to Columbus, to-day. Mr. Zane was an excellent citizen, a number one policeman and a tirst-class man in every way.

We hope he may prosper in his new home. He goes to take charge of a department in the penitentiary. Saturday afternoon a marriage license was issued to Mr. Andrew Goodwin and Miss Rosa Edwards, both of this city. This morning Mr.

James Farrell and Mii-s Han nah Harold, both of Cambridge lie use City, rtceived a marriage. James Helms, who died yesterday, va a private of the 124th Indiana Volunteers. The ollice of Sol Meredith post will attend his funeral to-morrow. The will of Joseph (L Harlan, of Franklin township, was admitted to probate and record this morning. A.

fchoot Col. Elliott or any one else in time parts. A quail hunt ought to demonstrate who is the best shot, we think. "Weather For the Upper Lake Region Local rains and generally cooler weather, winds shifting to west and north, preceded by Tariable winds. Rev.

Dr. Jones, of Lebanon, preached an eloquent sermon at the "Blount Moriah colored Baptist church last night. Dr. Jones is a practicing physician at Lebanon, and a well-posted and agreeable speaker. Mrs.

Stuckenberg, daughter and son, of Cincinnati, are here visiting the family of Henry Snyder and other friends, and attended dedication yesterday. Mrs. 8. is the rn.Qth.er of Kev. Harry Stuckenberg, of Troy, O.

John B. llegger arrived from the west last evening, and looks veil, and says trade up north is booming. Hegoe8to York to-night, where his wife is, and they will make a three-weeks' trip to all me leading cities on their way home. Gen. Bennett reports that the Xntghtstown reunion was a yery successful affair, but that the committee of arrangements undertook to crowd too many speeches into one short hour.

Gen. Mansonmade ringing address which was a great deal fuller of truth than poetry. George W. Calderwood passed through the city to-day, en route for lus home in Greenville, for the pur-jose of casting his vote for Foraker to-morrow. George has probably made some money by it, but has won a good deal of unenviable notoriety by his conduct in the cam-jaigu in our neighboring state.

To add to the enjoyment and novelty of the occasion, it is generally understood that persons in attendance at the Ilocsier spelling-match at the First M. E. church on next Wednesday evening, may observe whatever costume they choose with regard to the dress of ye olden time. Go to the Phillips to-night and 8(re the successor to "A Bunch of Keys." It is by the same author, and a splendid company. Later on you will hear a good deal of this pit vr and compiny, and then regret that yuu didn't see it, the same as with "A Bunch of Keys." The splendid showa seem to be striking early this se won, ab )ut the first town in the state.
