TILE-WORKERS OX A STRIKE. To Enforce a Demand for Fewer Hours and Increased Fay 150 Employes Quit Work. The eni]tloyes of the Encaustic tile works, including 100 men and fifty women, struck yesterday morning. Several weeks ago they asked of Receiver Mothershead a Saturday half-holiday, or the equivalent of a reduction to nine hours per da. for six days in the week. This demand was acceded to by Receiver ml.*irshead. The recent purchasers of the propert}*, Messrs John J. Cooper, Jackson Landers and John Picken, or THpion, derided that tho employes must work ten hours every day, or sixty hours per week, as the machinery eouid not be kept idle on Saturday afternoons. This decision was made known on Saturday, and on Sunday the executive board of George M. Andrews Assembly. Knights of Labor, of which nearly all the male employes are members, called on Mr. Landers and presented the following demands in behalf of the employes: (1.) Employes in the slop and evaporat-ing-rooms should receive $9 per week for nine hours’ work a daw that is ten hours every day but Saturday, and half a day’s work on that day. (2.) Kiln men to receive $10.50 a week and the same t'ne. (3.) Duet-room men to receive $9 a week, and packing-house employes the same. (4.) William Johnson to have an increase to $lO a week, and Andrew Chamberlain to sl3 50 a week. The men in the color-room and the night workmen, also, wanted shorter hours. A conference was to have been held between employers and employed at the works yesterday, but, instead of this, the men posted sentries there, and sent a committee of two prominent officers of the Knights of Labor to talk with the proprietors. No agreement was reached. Mr. Cooper said, yesterday.that the men earned from $1.50 to $2 a day and that some skilled workmen made S2O to S3O a week. Tbp owners would dose the works before making the con-

cessions demanded. Tim workmen said that very few of the most skillful employes earned over $8 to sl2 per week, net. They ridiculed Mr. Cooper’s statement. The strike was ordered by Andrews Assembly of the Knights of Labor. District Master Workman Lewis ■aid last nieht that the men would stay out until the proprietors made some concessions. No further conference bad been held during the afternoon looking to a settlement of the difficulties. The local executive board of the Knights of Labor alone could order the men back to work. No opposition would be offered to the employment of other men if the firm chose to do so. The Knights had detailed nine men to guard the factory night and day and see that no Knight did any in j ary. Three of these men were constantly on duty. More than this Mr. Lewis declined to say. BYNUM IN THE LEAD. The Fisrht Growing More Spirited, with the Outlook More Favorable to Bynum. The fight between the Bynum and anti-Bvnum factions is growing even more spirited as the lime for the convention to meet approaches. The opponents of Bynum claim that if he is not nominated ou the first ballot, he will not be defeated. Tbeir idea is that the delegates who have been divided between Mason, Bailey and Scott Ray will then go to the latter, and there is a. hope that they will be sufficient to nominate him. A Democrat from Lawrence township visited the court house yesterday, and in the coarse of a few remarks said the Democrats out his way were opposed to Bynum. On the other hand, among those who have no very strong feelings one way or the other and among those who have been so situated as to observe how things are going, the conviction deepens that Bynam will be nominated by a good round majority, probably on the first ballot. Bynum's intellectual superiority over any of his competitors is conceded, and the howl that has been made against him among the politicians has tended to cause a reaction in his favor. Besides this, he* is supposed to have the federal patronage, and there is a feeling that as he is the only Democrat who has carried the district by an undisputed majority wnile it was a Republican district, he should not be turned out now, when it has been made Democratic. The howl against him for his hard words about Mr. Hendricks is recognized as not being made from auy love of Mr. Hendricks, but from selfish motives. It has been supposed that Leon Bailey’s work as a “hustler” would surprise somebody in the convention. Nowit is said he will not get the support of his own ward, which is for Bynum. One Democrat in the ward says Bailey will not get a single vote from it. In the Eleventh ward Smith Myers and Sterling R. Holt will be the Bynum ticket for delegates, and Will English and Dr. Metcalf the anti-Bynum ticket. The fight there is getting interesting. The Bynum men will try to defeat English for delegate, in view of the fact that he will have more influence than probably any other one delegate. It is said he will make a bitter speech against Bynum, and that there is a notion among his admirers that, in case of a failure to concentrate on any other man in opposition to Bynum, he would be nominated with a whoop. CANDIDATE FOR SCHOOL COMMISSIONE. A petition has been presented to Dr. Henry Jameson, signed by a large number of the residents of the Third school district, requesting him to become a candidate for school commissioner at the coming June election, for the reason that they believe that hej “would fill the position with honor and credit to the city schools.” Among the signers of the petition are J. G. Douglass, Brainard Rorison, Silas T\ Bowen, L. Howland, A. J. Treat, S. N. Bannister, Albert W. Wishard, George W. Sloan, John A. Holman, F. S. Newcomer, W. J. McKee, John G. Blake, Irvin Robbins. Can. Byfield, Hervey Bates, D. F. Whitcomb, Henry Rauh, R. L. Scarlett, Louis Reibold, William Giezendanner, Wm. H. Morrison, O. R. Johnson and D. M. Greene. The following is Dr. Jameson’s response: Messrs. L. Howland. J. G. Douglass. Silas T. Bowen, and others: Your communication asking me to be a candidate for school commissioner, is before me. I am no' without some distrust as to a full measure of ability to fitly fill the position; yet I feel that I should not disregard your petition, and will cheerfully comply with the request. Henry Jameson.

FREE AND ACCEPTED MASONS. Sixty-Sixth Annual Meeting of the Grand Lodge of Indiana This Morning. Several hundred delegates arrived in the city yesterday, to attend the eixty-sixth annual meeting of the Indiana Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons, which oonvenes in Masonic Temple at 10 o’clock this morning. The attendance promises to be unusually large, and the meeting one of more than passing interest The chairs on the floor of the Grand Lodge are numbered, and it is the wish of the grand master that the representatives occupy the chairs corresponding with the number of their lodge, and that this plan be carried out during each session. Grand Master Albert P. Charles has his headquarters at Room 39, Grand Hotel, where he can be found this morning, and when notin attendance upon the Grand Lodge. The present officers are Albert P. Charles, grand master; Mortimer Nye, deputy grand master; Isaac P. Leyden, senior grand warden; Thomas R. Long, junior errand warden; Martin H. Rice, grand treasurer; William H. Smvthe, grand secretary: Right Reverend David B. Knickerbacker, grand chaplain; George T. Barney, grand lecturer; Jacob J. Todd, grand marshal; Alexander Thomas, senior grand deacon; Marshall Hacker, junior grand deacon; Wm. M. Black, grand steward and tyler. The statement in a Sunday paper that there is considerable dissatisfaction with the trustees, is denounced as nntrue by those in a position to know. The present trustees are John Caven, Robert VanValzah and Calvin W. Prather, men of the strictest integrity, and whose management of the trust has given universal satisfaction. A MURDER CASE AFFIRMED. The Trial of Samuel Archer, in Martin County, Sustained by the Supreme Court. The case against Samuel Archer, convicted of complicity in the murder of Samuel A. Bunch, was affirmed by the Supreme Court yesterday. The appeal was made on the plea that the court that tried Archer had no jurisdiction in the case, as the crime for which the prisoner was indicted was committed in Orange county, the murdered man having been seized near his home in Martin county and carried to Saltpetre Cave, in Orange, where his body was riddled with bullets and afterwards burned. Archer was tried in the Martin Circuit Court, and is now under sentence to hnng at Shoals on July 9. The Supreme Court thinks the circumstances surrounding the crime unite very strongly in proving that the seizing and binding of Bunch were a part of a previously-arranged plan, and were the initial steps in the murder. The crime which culminated in the death of Bunch in the cave in Orange county was a single one, although composed of several elements, and the acts done in Martin county were not distinct criminal acts, but were parts of one crime, consumated in the adjoining county. The decision affirming the sentence is based upon an Indiana statute, providing that! “When a public offense has been committed partly in one county and partly in another, or the acts or effects constituting a requisite to the consummation of the offense occur in two or more counties, the jurisdiction is in either.” Scrofula, salt rheum, all humr-rs, boils, piraSles and diseases of tbe blood, general debility, yspepsia, biliousness, sick headache, kiduey and liver complaints, catarrh and rheumatism, are cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla.

THE COMINO WEEK OP BONO. Preparations for the Mnsio Festival-Over $5,500 Worth of Seats Already Sold. The chorus And orchestra had their first joint rehearsal, last eveuing, in the new City Hall. Everybody, especially Prof. Carl Barns, whose arduous duty it has been to drill this great chorus, was delighted, and the acoustic effects of the hall are pronounced to be perfect There will be about six hundred voices in the chorus, and Indianapolis has furnisbed all her best talent In the orchestra there will be over sixty pieces. Thirty-two of the musicians are professionals from this city, and twenty-four, also professionals. are from Cincinnati, the few remaining ones being well-known amateurs of this city. Prof. Barus, who is one of the oldest and ablest directors in the country, says this musical event will undoubtedly be a brilliant success. A fine study has been made by the chorus and the voices are almirable. The orchestra will meet the great demands that will be made upon them. Those mrmbers furnished by Indianapolis include Professors Miller and Beissenherz and Joseph B. Cameron, and they have long been engaged upon the most difficult music, such as Beethoven’s "Fifth Symphony in C Minor,” Mendelssohn’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream,” Rossini’s “William Tell” and “Semiramide,” Weber’s “Oberou,” etc. Those of the orchestra from Cincinnati are old associates of Prof. Barus, who knows them as practiced musicians’of eighteen years' standing. Indianapolis may well congratulate herself on having such a director, a man of national reputation, connected with numerous great musical events. In 1868 Prof. Barns conducted the American Saengerbund festival in this city, which *■ as attended by thousands of persons, in addition to the members of the bund, and iu 1879 conducted the great musical festival at Cincinnati. The opening of the City Hall building will be a grand event in the history of Indianapolis, and will bring together the most distinenished musical talent this city has ever known. Those who heard Lilli Lehman the past week in Cincinnati earns away completely enraptured with the melody of her voice, and crown her the queen of song. Over four thousand dollars’worth of tickets have already been 6old for admission to that portion of tho Grand Army Festiv 1 to be held at tbe City Hall, aud orders for nearly fifteen huudrpd dollars’ worth of seats have been received for tne American Opera season, although seats for tbe opera will not be on sale or diagrams exposed until next Friday. Everyone of the festival performances promises to be quite as complete a success 'a attendance as they surely will be iu the execution. The programmes are longer, more complete and varied than those of all Western sister cities combined, and are participated in by all the renowned people who appear at Cincinnati, Louisville and St. Louis; and, in addition to this, Indianapolis will have one day devoted to a national camp-fire, participated in by a number of renowned generals of the late war. including General Sherman. The people at home and m adjoining cities are only just beginning to comprehend the magnitude of the affair, and a very ready response in procuring tickets give assurance that there will be an attendance which will crowd the city with visitors. Although the opening is not until next weak, the hotels are already receiving orders for accommodations. A special telegram received from Chicago last night says. “The American Opera made a brilliant success to-night at McVicker's Theater. ‘Lohengrin’ was given in a manner that has never been equaled here. The Thomas orchestra, the grand chorus of 100 voices, and the superb scenery and costly costumes, were a revelation even to old opera-goers and blaso critics. The engagement will be a great success.” MUST MAKE MONTHLY REPORTS. The County Treasurer Cannot Deprive the City of the Use of Its Own Funds. The decision of the Marion county Superior Court in the suit of the city against County Treasurer Miller, to compel him to make monthly reports of the receipts and disbursements of the city funds was affirmed by the Supreme Court yesterday. Miller contended that, under the provisions of the Winter bill, making the county treasnrer custodian of city funds, he could not be required to make any disbursements out of his receipts on account of the city until after making his annual settlement with the county auditor on the third Monday of April. The effect of this has been to deprive the city of the use of its own money, and force it to borrow to meet current demands. The Supreme Court holds that it was not the intention of the Legislature, in the enactment of the law, to put the municipal taxes out of the reach of the proper city authorities, or “to make the city, with its own money in the hands of the county treasurer, a borrower of the funds needed to maintain its fire department, or for police or sanitary purposes, until the treasurer makes his annual settlement with the county auditor.” The court thinks that the Legislature never contemplated any such results as these in the enactment of the statute, and says that to give the statute such a construction would obstruct the improvement of the city, and lead not only to possible but to actual injustice.

SUICIDE OF A PAINTER. William Norrish Fonnd Dead in His Room with a Ballet-Hole ia His Head. William Norrish, a painter, employed at the Panhandle shops, and occupying a room in tbe building on tbe south side of Ohio street, just west of the canal, committed suicide yesterday morning, about 10 o’clock, by shooting himself in the head. He had been out to the canal at 9 o’clock, and was seen wading in the water. Afterward he returned to his room, and soon after the other occupants of the building heard a noise which they took to be a loud slamming of a door. Some of them passed the room several times, and, the door being slightly ajar, saw the man lying on his bed, which had fallen through to the floor the night before, apparently asleep. In the afternoon a little girl went into the riom and ran and told her mother that Mr. Norrish had blood on his head. It was then found that he had committed suicide. The ball bad penetrated the bram above the right ear. The remains were taken in charge by Flanner & Hommown. and a telegram was sent to Norrish’* brother, who is one of the proprietors of a stove factory at Moline, 111. Tbe dead man was about thirty years old, and was unmarried. He had made no threats of suicide, so far as known, and was a temperate, industrious workingman. He had been sick lateiv, and this, perhaps, caused the deed. He was a very peculiar individual, seeming to care little for other people and having little to say to them. A Mania for Slating. James P. McGuire, a railroad man, living at No. 223 North Mississippi street, has been declared insane. He became blind three years ago. and has been gradually losing his mental power since that time. He has a mania for eating, and wants to eat all the time. Receiver of the Merrill Pump Company, On petition of Charles L. Merrill, one of the stockholders of the Merrill Pump Company. Gen. George F. McGinnis has been appointed receiver of the company, and has £iven bond in tbe sum of SIO,OOO. Building Permits Issued Yesterday. Building permits were issued yesterday as follows: Samuel Kester, frame cottage, Clifford avenue, between Massachusetts avenue and First street, $700; Owen, Pixley A Cos., packingroom and ebimney of brick, stone and gravel,

The Sapreme Coart Refuses to Allow the Township Subsidy Case To Ee Reopened. The petition for a rehearing in the case of Marion county against Center township, in which was involved the right to $65,000 voted in 1870 by tbe tax-payers of the township to aid in the construction of the Indiana A Illinois Central railway, was overruled by the Supreme Court yesterday. The donation waa voted to the company in consideration of a promise to locate tbe machine shops of the Toad in Center township. The Indiana & Illinois was consolidated with the Indianapolis, Decatur & Springfield, in 1875, and the newly-organized company completed the road. On the theory that the railroad company had forfeited all rights to tbe donation, tbe township, in 1877, brought suit against the County Commissioners for the recovery of the money, and was given judgment for $71,102.68, in 1880. After paying something over $20,000 of the amount of tbe judgment, the County Commissioners refused to make any further payments, without a bond of indemnity against the claims of tax-payers and tbe railway company. In a decisym rendered in last October the Supreme Court held that as ths donation was voted upon the one condition that tbe principal shops of the new road should be located in Center township, the Indianapolis. Decatur & Springfield was entitled to tbe $65,000 pledged to the original company. Shortly after this decision was rendered the fact was made known that the shops were actually located in Wayne township just across the line from Center township, and a petition for a rehearing was filed. The Supreme Court, in overruling the petition, says, 4 ‘lt is shown with reasonable certainty that the able attorney of Center township was fnlly informed of- this mistake, and the cause was heard and decided with the belief, and upon the supposition that the record, as it ought to have done, imported absolute verity.” In justification of the ruling it is stated that the court has always refused, and in cases of more magnitude and importance than this one, to graut a rehearing in order that a con action may be made iu the record.

The First Sign Os failing health, whether in the form of Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a sense of General Weariness and Loss of Appetite, should suggest the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This preparation is most effective for giving tone and strength to the enfeebled system, promoting the digestion and assimilation of food, restoring the nervous foroes to their normal condition, and for purifying, enriching, and vitalizing the blood. Failing Health. Ten years ago my health began to fail. I was troubled with a distressing Cough, Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervousness. I tried various remedies prescribed by different physicians, Dut became so weak that I could not go up stairs without stopping to rest. My friends recommended me to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, w hich I did, and I am now as healthy and strong as ever.—Mrs. E. L. Williams, Alexandria, Minn. I have used Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, in my family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly eradicate this terrible disease. I have also prescribed it as a tcaie, as well as an alterative, and must say that I honestly believe it to be the best blood medicine ever compounded.—W. F. Fowler, M. D., D. D. S., Greenville, Tenn. Dyspepsia Cured. It would be impossible for me to describe what I suffered from Indigestion and Headache up to the time I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was under the care of various physicians, and tried a great many kinds of medicines, but never obtained more than temporary relief. After taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla for a short time, my headache disapS eared, and my stomach performed its uties more perfectly. To-day my health is completely restored. Mary Harley, Springfield, Mass. I have beey greatly benefited by the prompt use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. It tones and invigorates the system, regulates the action of the digestive and assimilative organs, and vitalizes the blood. It is, without doubt, the most reliable blood purifier yet discovered. H.
