The policy atlndiauapolis seems to be "Lay low and eay nothing."
The Supreme court of Pennsylvania bns aflumed thp constitulionality ol the "Oleomargarine Act."
There will be a sigh of relief throughout the whole country wh6u Secretary LamRr and Senator Jones arc both finally married.
The uncertainty as to tbe political complexion of the legislature has brought out numerous candidates, all ladies, for both the Republican and Democratic nominations. Miss Anna Nicholas, of the Journal stafl, is regarded as the most formidable candidate on the Republican side, anil her friends are very active in her behalf, as she is both capable and deserving, Miss Mary D. Nay lor is also after the nomination with vigor, Mrs. Pendleton, of John son county, a young lady who is highly recommended and strongly backed by the members from her part of the slate, is receiving gratifying, assurances of support and will doubtless prove formidable. Miss Hattie Clark, who has been formally indorsed by Blankenship Post, G. A. R., is also in the race, and Miss Hibben, the present assistant Miss Nave, of Danville Miss Stackhouse, of Ihis city Mrs. Cooper, of Shelbyrille. and others are announced. The Sentinel this niorging iatimates that Senator Campbell (Republican,) of Hendricks county, will support Mifs Nave if she is nominated by the Democrats, but this is denied. Already Ihe hotel lobbies are crowded with candidates for prison director, trustees cn the benevolent boards, etc,, and Dr. Harrison is hustling to retain his present position, but will probably not be able to do it.
Four ladies from this city, of democratic proclivities, are seeking the office of stats libranan, nam«ly Mrs. Gerlrue Hibben, Mrs. John Paphe, Miss Nellie Stackhouse and Mrs, L. L. JacksonMoon. From the state at large there are perhaps a score, and a statesman said to-day concerning his particular party candidates: "Mrs. Hibben has the call, with Mrs, Nave, of Hendricks, a good second, and Mis. Cooper, of Shelby, the most persistent worker."

The Democratic end of the senatorial question is becoming somewhat complicated. The Republicans are, of course, unitrd on Senator HBrnson, but their political opponents are apparently afloat on a phoreltss sea. Within the last twenty-lour houty there has been very much talk about Judge Kibleback candidacy, it being argued thst he the most available, and at t-he same time the ri&igisin i—, formidable man that can be nomi- eot from under the influence and terrornaled. It is known that there are members who are siwigi'
oppp?t*
to "ther «sray
deciK~
ation is in existence, however. The .Republicans are smiling and confident today and reiterate their prediction that Harrison will be returned to the senate. It is probable that they are contemplating a coup d'etat of some kind. And a News.reporter was givenhint this morn ing that two Democratic members of the house would be summarily bounced at the opening of the session^ on the ground of constitutional ineligibility, and further, that these gentlemen were neither Meagher nor Mock, whose cases ha^e been so much discusied, but two entirely different men, whose seals have not yet been publicly disputed. J!y the way, Mr. Meagher is here, a cleanshaven, stalwart, solid-looking man, who talks freely and fluently about bis esse, and ssems to think that he will be allowed to serve. The present probability is that he will be doomed to bitter disappointment.
The contest for the various official po gitions in connection with the legislature waxeth warm. Tho Republican house caucus will be held to-morrow night, and the indications are that Mr. Sayre will be chosen for speaker, Mr. Smith for secretary, Mr. U, Z, Wiley for assistant secretary and either Mr. Schroeder, of Huntington, cr Majar Finney, of Richmond, ror door-keeper. Judge Gardner is making au active and effective cam paign for the speakership, and is receiving numerous promisea of support. The contest between him ami Mr. Sayre is being conducted gooduaturcdty, ind both gentlemen are confident. Tbe fight over lbs secretaryship of tho senat6 is becoming exceedingly animated and somewhat oilier. Jason Brown's candidacy is regarded with con siderable bitterness, as an effort is being made by his friends lo hoist him in the genate, on the ground of political necessity, without regard to the claims of the other aspirants. Yesterday it was thought that Mr. Moss, of Bloomfield, was in Ihe lead in this race, but to day the sentiment seems to have ehifted in favor of Webster Dixon, of Columbus, and his chances are now regarded as the best. Mr. Darnel), of Put nam county, however, is very active and claims I hat he will have more votes on the first ballot than either of tbe others. For assistant sscretary, James Wahh.of this oily, is making thG most active canvass with the best chances of succeBs. For door-keeper, Ed. Wells is hustling with much vigor, but the indications are in favor of the selec I ion of Frank Pritchard, of Evansville. For ihe minor positions there are candidates iunumer able.
P««i»ar Case,
home of the uewepapeiB have stated
that Hon. Jason B. Brown, of Seymour, would probably be a candidate for United States senator. Meeting htm, I inquired if he thought of entering the race. He replied j-.roiBplJy: "1 am not a candidate and shall not be. 1 am for McDonald, and if 1 were a member ol the legislature I would vote for him."
Mr. Krown left hero to-day for Lawrenceburg, where he is engaged in a somewhat peculiar ^uit for divorce. He is seeking to, have ibis client's marriage annulled on the ground of duresfon Ihe part of the wife's relatives in obtaining the marriage. It seems that a rather pretty young lady in that neighborhood went to Cincinnati some time ago with a matried man, and remained in that city with him for several days. She was pursued by her lather and brother, who finally found her and took her home. They did not know who her companion wap, and did not agitate the matter, hoping to preserve the girl's reputation. In a few months, however, the jounglady gave oi a condi-

iian which made farther concealment of her shame impoealble. Her father and brother pressw her to disclose the name of her betrayer, and the, after some reluctance, put the blanie on a young unmarried man of -that community. The young fellow had always borne a good name, and waa engaged lo wed in a short time a respectable and accomplished young lady. The relatives of the injured girl at once procured a marriage licence and compelled the young man to marry the unfortunate female, under a threat of instant death if he did not comply. It was in rain that he protested his innocense, The hapless girl insisted that he was the author of her ruin, as they say in the story books, and the alleged seducer, who was a timid, sensitive creature, and who wap greatly averse to dying at that time,
W6nt to the altar and became the husband of a woman who waa in a little while to become a mother, Mr. Brown •ays that the unwilling husband has never recognised nor ratified the marany way, and just as soon as he
ism of his wife's relatives he instituted suit to have tbe mock ceremony set aside aad held for naught, He experts to win the case, and wilf, if necessary, carry it to the Supreme court, it reminds one flfthe Seabri^ht c^se io England, where the wife had her marriage annulled on the ground that her husband put a spell on her and compelled her lo marry nim 5iv!?nsl her will, which was at the lic^

How Eb. Henderson Got an Office. In Senator Smith's room at the Grand hotel, last night, I found a crowd of good fellows telling jokes and occasionally lightly discussing the situation. One of the gentlemen related how Mr. Eb. Henderson gjt his appointment as deputy commissioner of internal revenue. As the story will sooner or later hnd its way into print, may as well give it here.
The gentleman said that when Mr Henderson first went to Washington— about a year ago—to aecure a federal office—President Cleveland declined to consider his name in connection with appOmtm^st to office. Mr. Henderson's friends backed him heroically, but the president firmly declined to do any thing, giyins £S bin T9**9n thgt Mr, Henderson was too much oT S politician io hold office under the administration. Seeing that to remain Jongsr was useless, Mr. Henderson returned to izt lu due time assumed the managent of the state campaign for the Democrats. After this election, when the overwhelming Democratic defeat had become sickeningly apparent, President Cleveland sent for Mr. Henderson to come to Washington. He presented himself at tho White House and the president said: "Mr. Henderson, I hare done you an injustice. I thought you were an offensive partisan, but the returns from the Indiana election convince me that you are no sort of a politician. I desire to make amends for the wrong I have done you, and will be glad to appoint you to any office you want." Mr. Henderson looked around and selected the position to which he has just been appointed.
LOGAN AS A FIGHTER.
A Frofe»jor of Fagllum Rtlatei In•tance* of the Senators Frowesi. Washington Special.
Washington has an old professional athlete in the person of Professor Collins, known throughout this section as "The Cast-iron Man." He has fought a number of bailies in the ring and has laugbt the manly art of self-defense lo MattCarpenter, Roscoe Confeiing and many others of wide celebrity. To-day he was asked if he ever pul on the gloves with Senator Logan. "Hundreds of times," was the reply. "I had him under my care for years, "Was he handy with his figts?" waB asked. "He was the best two-handed man 1 ever saw in my life, amateur or professional. He was a natural-born fighter," he continued "1 never saw his like. He was powerful, and a hard and quick hitter. I never thought he would die so easily. I was with him up to within a few hours ol his death. I thought his wonderful physique would carry him through." "it has been said that the general was such a good fighter that on one occasion he knocked you out. How is that "That's the truth," acknowledged the professor. "He knocked me clean over a big arm chair that he had iu his room. It was a terriffic blow. I gave him two black eyes in that encounter, and he carried them with him to the senate. Senator Ogksby was a spectator of the bout, and when it grew warm he tried to stop it. He couldn't, though the general stopped it himself. Ho certainly hit me hard. The stories about his agility and strength have not been exaggerated in the least," "Senator Voorhees says he heo seen him, within a few years, turn a handspring in his parlor," said the reporter. "So have I, hundreds of tfhies," said the professor "I tell you he was the best man in ov^ry respect I ever saw, and that means a good deal, when you are speaking of fighting."

Croakers should all be sent to the rear, and live men should place their shoulders to the wheels. The year 1S3T gives promise of bSinj* the best business year for a whole decade."

Vincenpes Commercial ''Some crank in Washington, D. C., cards a paper in that city suggesting Mrs. Logan as the successor of ner late husband in the United States senate. Bandying the this noble and grief-stricken name ot woman before the public in so rediculous a manner should call down the se Terest censure, not only upon the fool author, but on the fpaper which gave it publicity,"
Richmond Palladium "It scarcely worth while for ex-Senator McDonald and Governor tlray to be fighting each olher in the belief that they are rival candidates for United Slates senator. They are more likely to be coupled together and sent off as scape goats bearing the sins of their party into the wilderness of private life. The Democratic party leader of the present day, in this state, has 00 polical future worth worrying about,"

HBRft AND THERE| |g
A colored man by the name of Taylor was before Judge Mack yesterday on a charge of larceny. He was defended by Judge McNutt. From the testimony it appears that the day before Christmas Taylor, who lives in Marshall, 111., was in the city and remained part of the day at Sam Brown's notorious saloon in the West side, playing cards. Taylor said he played poker up stalrsover the saloon and then came down stairs and played a same they called "freeze-out." The judge remarked that gambling came under the jurisdiction of the city authorities. Judge McNutt replied that gambling in this city is winked at and is notoriously prevalent, as notorious as tbe bawdy houses.
Taylor was charged wilh having stolen a suit of clothes and sold them to a second hand dealer. Judge Mack said
Well, you i$ay take him back to jail and I will decide later what I will do with him. But, Taylor, 1 am sorry you didn't tell me the truth." "Mr. Judge, your honor, 1 did tell you the God's truth, as sure as there is a God in heaven, and I believe there i*4" 941a 'iSJIOf "I am going to put a stop to this practice of witnesses coming into. this court and swearing to anything," added judge.
Tavlor was remanded to jail to await the decision of Judjje Mack. The prisoner was arrested in Marshall and brought back to this city for trial some few days ago. _____
Attorney Thomas Harper, Nicholas Filbeck and Attorney Dave Taylor were present at the Downing-Beasley case yesterday morning. Tbe attorneys for Beasley will then introduce testimony on behalf of the Sullivan county stripling. "Will you have many witness?" asksi the reporter of Mr. Taylor. "Quite a number, bat as we want to rush things I think iff w!l employ a short-hanctwriter,"
What will fjf tho mature ef the evi_t*ce you will ofi'er? Similar to that which has been offered by the other side "Yes," replied Mr. Taylor, "We will show the casting of illegal votes for Downing and will also offer testimony to prove the legality of Democratic votes which the other side have sought to prove illegal."
It is hoped lo begin the taking of testimony in behalf of Beasley this morning. With a stenegrapher it will require a number of days to take the depositions, so that the ease will hot end for at least a few days to come.
The city schools opened Monday morning. The attendance was quite large considering that it was the first day of anew term and that the weather was quite cold. There was quite a number of absentees in the primary grades, but in the upper classes there was a very full attendance. There has been but one change in tbe force of teachers. Miss Peters, of the Fourth district, has been granted a leave of absence. MisB Ida McElfresh. cf the Eighth district, Mt. Rose, haB been transferred lo the Fourth district, and Miss Glick has taken Miss McElfresh's place at Mt. Rose. The opening is regarded as very favorable for a prosperous term.
The Polytechnic institute opened yesterday with tbe usual attendance. All the boys have returned from their holiday vacation.
The annual election of officers for Asbury Sunday school occurred on last Sabbath, resulting in the election of R, M. Hollingsworth, superintendent Ed S. Burnett, assistant Miss Frank Bannister, superintendent of primary sohool W. B. Elliott, treasurer Miss Mary Bannister, secretary Carl Elliott, librarian Will Lawson and F. J. Neal, assistants H. J. Mater, chorister Miss Mary E. Buckles, organist. The school has done a large amount of good work during the past year under the faithful superintendence of W. A. Cox. assisted by W. H. Bannister, and as the result, now begins the new year with still better promise for the future.
While Attorney Sam Houston was at Phccaix, Arizona, where he is said "to have 6een Indians," he and a friend had suits ot clothes made of the same piece of cloth. Sam was unfortunate in having his coat stolen from him. He remained in I'hcenix for a year and a half before he returned to Indiana. He heard nothing of his coat until a day or twd ago, when he received a letter from his friend stating that he had seen the coat. It is now being worn by a man who presumably stole it. The coat has evidently been stored away for a number of years, "but murder will out."
The funeral of the late Mrs. Margaret Campbell, who was burned last Friday night so terribly that death resulted Sunday evening, took place yesterday morning from 8t. Joseph's Church. The funeral was largely attended by relatives and friends oi the deceased.
The grand jury of late has been look ing into cases of wife desertion and has relumed a number of indictments. Yelerthe up
day was the date set for a hearing of Craft case. Tbe case was not called however, owing to a compromise being effected with the court.
Costumes in Othello,
Oswego city had the rare privilege of hearir Booth in Othello the other day, and the Times-Express speaks of it as follows:
Edwin Booth was, of course, the great attraction, but the playing, as a whole, was on a much higher level than that to which small cities like Oswego are often treated.
The costumes of the men -were exceedingly beautiful, presenting in each character the closely fitting garments which admirably exhibit the figure and allow free movement, and also the flowing over mantle which continually falls into radiating folds, giving the wearer, according to his type, a graceful or a statuesque beauty. Too much cannot be said in praise of the combination of colors in each costume and in the related costumes of the different actora. Harmony and low toned contrasts of the most pleasing character were always attained. Often the stage was like a beautiful picture which Rembrandt might have painted.
Th8 walking of the men was light, noiseless, elastic, natural tin distinction from etagery} and high-bred. The gestures were never overdone they seemed the spontaneous expression of spirit— spirit not hidden, but revealed by a well trained body.
The women were not a* well dressed. The first costumes in which Desdemona and mill a appeared were ugly. They wa|e not in harmony with tin dress of tj|#men Ihey were fearfully "girted in" PI,the waist and pulled oat at the train^'
the trains wen not managed but kicked. One felt on contrasting die free, hari&oniouB dries of the men with the constrained staring dress of the women, that the latter must play a losing game. Later the women wore soft colors, bat they were always the victims of pinching. When they appeared in their night costumes—free, flowing, hiding the deformities produced by compreesion, they were graceful.
The uninitiated wonder if the same head planned the dresses for the men and the women.

Divorce Wanted After Fifty Years. Kansas City (Mo.) Times, James M. Teagarden, almost 80 years 01 age, filed suit in the Circuit clerk's office yesterday for divorce from his wife, Sarah Teagarden, who is 75, and with whom he has lived for fifty years, To-morrow will be the fiftieth anniversary of their married life, for on December 120, 1836, they were united in a little Ohio village. In 1866 they removed here, and the aged couple lived very quietly together, the petitioner says, until a short time ago. The trouble commenced by Mrs. Teagarden compelling Mr. Teagarden to sleep on the first lloor, while she occupied a room on the floor above. She did this, he says, with the avowed intention of being protected against burglars, but he began to suspect that at last, after fifty years of companionship, she had grown tired of him. Finally his suspicions were substantiated. One morning Mrs. Teagarden left the house and never returned again, and now he wants a divorce.
