FRIDAY, NOV. 29, 1895.

THE postal deficit this year amounts to $10,000,000. This is an enormous deficit and the largest for many years, but is only similar to the other Cleveland administration business methods, since all departments show exceedingly bad management.

THE "Bond Syndicate" is wanting more bonds. It made $12,000,000 off of the last deal. No wonder it wants more. The indications are that there will be a new issue in January. Cleveland, Carlisle & Co. have been playing into the hands of the bond buyers and against the interests ef the people ever since they have been ID control of the government, but a day of reckoning is at hand.

THE REPUBLICAN has received an invitation from President J. H. Smart, of Purdue University, to attend the reopening of the new Engineering Labratory, Wednesday, Dec. 4. It will be celebrated with appropriate exercises. Purdue University, under the excellent management of President Smart, is rapidly coming to the front and gaining quite a reputation in its line all over the United States. It is doing much for the young men and ladies of Indiana in furnishing them the opportunity for a useful and practical education. It is of especial use to young men who are anxious to learn the art of successful farming and dairying.

OBITUARY.

Win. D. Carter, son of Powhatan and Elizabeth Carter, was born Jan. 27, 1873, in Meig's county, O., and died at the residence of his father near Plainfied, Ind., Nov. 5, 1895, aged 22 years, 9 months and 8 days. The deceased was reared in West Virginia, from which State he removed to Indiana in 1886. He was a remarkably quiet young man, a regular attendant at Sabbath school and a member of tte Epworth League of Willow Branch. At an early age he imbibed a love for the truth and honesty, which remained with him to the last. He was strictly temperate in all his habits—did not use stimulants nor narcotics in any form.

In his intercourse with men his life has been exemplary and commendable, and as evidence of this has held a position of honor and trust for

tthe

past five

years. During his last illness of nearly four weeks he bore his affliction with becoming fortitude, und as he passed peacefully away he said, "Pray for me I am nearer God than I have ever been before," and with a smile of sunshine from his face, passed quietly into his eternal reward.

THANKSQtVINQ AT CLEVELAND.

Anti-Trinitarians Opposed the Holiday. '"'M Women Prayed- For Infenolt. CLEVELAND, Nov. 29.—Rabbi M. Gries of Willson Avenue temple, the most prominent Jewish synagogue in the city, preached a remarkable sermon at the church of the Unity yesterday before an audience composed of Unitarians, Universalists and Jews. Rabbi Gries said he objected to the form of observing Thanksgiving day, and was opposed to the issuing of proclamations by the president, calling upon the people to meet for prayer and thanksgiving, because, he declared, this was not a Christian nation. While the majority of the people were Christians, a strong minority were not, and that minority was entitled to consideration. He said he did not desire to detract anything from Christianity, because he realized what it had done for the country, but he was in favor of larger religious freedom and the most of his sermon was devoted to a plea for such freedom.

Many fervent prayers were doubtless offered in this city for the conversion of Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll, the noted agnostic. Last week at the quarterly meeting of the Christian Endeavor unions of Cleveland, it was suggested that such prayers be offered, and the president appointed noon yesterday as time and requested that the 3,000 members of the society here engage in prayer at that time. The president of the Epworth league, who was present, said he would make a similar request of the members of his organization. The prayers were to be delivered in private, and how many persons complied with tlio request will probably never be known.

HEARD TALMAGE.

How President and Mrs. Cleveland Otiervetl Thanksgiving—Celebrated Abroad. WASHINGTON, NOV. 29. President Cleveland and Mrs. Cleveland came into town yesterday morning and after spending an hour at the White House, they attended services at the First Presbyterian church and listened to a sermon by Dr. Talmage, following the reading of the president's Thanksgiving proclamation and the rendition of several patriotic hymns. From church the president and Mrs. Cleveland drove directly to Woodley, where they enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner in the privacy of the family.

The day was observed also in the other churches, all government departments were closed and thei'e were several football games between athletic clubs and colleges.

Bayard Not Present.

LONDON, Nov. 29.—The American society in London, which was organized several months ago on much the same lines as the Ohio Society of New York, celebrated Thanksgiving day by a banquet at the Holborn restaurant. Mr. James R. Roosevelt, first secretary of the American embassy, presided. It was found upon sitting down to dinner that 450 guests were present, including Andrew Aiuslie Common, F. R. S., president of the Royal Astronomical society Moncure D. Conway, Robert Barr and several of the United States consuls in England. Regrets Were read from United States Ambassador Bayard, who had been expected to preside at the dinner, but was unavoidably absent.

Dinner at the Kaiserhof.

BERLIN, Nov. 29.—The Americans in Berlin celebrated Thanksgiving by a dinner at the Kaiserhof, at which United States Ambassador Runyon presided. In proposing a toast to Emperor William, Ambassador Runyon dwelt upon the amicable relations existing between Germany and the United States. Later, in proposing a toast to the president of the United States, he eulogized President Cleveland and the blessings of individual liberty in the United States. James E. Risely, United States minister to Denmark, and United States Consuls Monoghan and Opp were among those who made speeches. The number of guests was about 5500.

The Day in Paris.

PARIS, Nov. 29.—A number of private dinners were given last evening in honor of Thanksgiving by members of the American colony here.

FORGER AT 98.

An Aged Pensioner Detected in a Scheme to lieat the Government. FORT SMITH, Ark., Nov. 29.—Jolm J. Overton, claiming to be 98 years of age, was convicted in the United States court here for forgery. His offense was the forgery of two affidavits in support of his application for an increase of pension, filed in 1892. The affidavits purported to have been made by John Bowen and Peter Black and acknowledged before I. J. Sims, a justice of the peace of Scott county, Ark. Bowen lives in Keokuk, la., and has never been in this state. Neither Black nor Sims ever saw the papers before they were in the hands of the pension examiner. Overton admitted that they were forgeries, but claimed that he had nothing to do with them. He tried to place the responsibility upon a pension agent at Washington, who, he said, promised to get up his proofs and prepared all the papers in the case. Overton says he is a veteran

Catholic Church Dedication. CHICAGO, Nov. 29.—The new German Catholic church of St. Martins, constructed from plans made by the celebrated German architect, L. Becker of Mainz, was dedicated yesterday by Archbishop Feehan, after the celebration of pontifical high mass. The edifice has been erected at a cost of over $200,000, the interior being richly decorated, and all the ornamentation having been brought from Westphalia, Germany. The exterior is ornamented with several pieces of sculpture, the most prominent being a bronze figure of St. Martin on horseback.

Fatal Thanksgiving limit.

DELAWARE, O., Nov. 29.—Whilo out hunting for Thanksgiving game, George Warren, a well known merchant of this place, shot and fatally wounded himself. He was attempting to scale a fence with his guii in one hand, and had gotten on top of the fence. As he went to jump down his footing slipped and caused an awkward fall and the explosion of his shotgun. The full load of shot entered his breast and caused death iu a short tiu\c*

How to Make Macaroni Croquettes. Break into small pieces 6 ounces of macaroni throw these into boiling water, and boil rapidly 20 minutes, because the motion of the water prevents the macaroni from sticking together. "When done, drain in a colander and throw into cold water to blanch for 15 minutes. Put a half pint of milk into a farina boiler rub together a tablespoonful of butter and 4 even tablespoonfuls of flour stir into the milk and cook and stir continually until a thick paste is formed then add the yolks of 2 eggs, cook a moment longer take from the fire add 2 tablespoonfuls of grated cheese, a palatable seasoning of salt and pepper. Drain and shake the macaroni, cut into half inch pieces stir these into the mixture, and turn out to cool. When cold, form into croquettes dip first into egg and then in bread crumbs and fry in smoking hot fat. This quantity will make 18 good sized croquettes.

How to Restore Furs.

A comb with teeth set wide apart may be used carefully to fluff up long haired furs, but violent tugging must be avoided or the fur will be torn. Furs should not be put too near a large fire, but should packing them away have flattened them, it will be found advantageous to place them before a slow fire, but at considerable distance, and vigorouslv shake them from time to time.

How to Make Good Meringue. Whip the whites of the eggs to a froth that will not fall out of the bowl when turned upside down, put in about a tablespoonful of granulated sugar for each white, stir very little, spread it on the pies when they are just done and still baking hot, without taking them out of the oven, and let them bake with the door open. If made hot enough to brown, the meringue will surely fall and become worse than nothing. Five to ten minutes is enough to bake the meringue dry and straw colored. Sift granulated sugar on the top of the meringue as soon as spread on the pie before baking.

ONE OF THE LARGEST

SUCH SHOULD BE INDIANA'S CENTENNIAL EXPOSITION.

It Is the State's Greatest Opportunity to Bring Credit on Itself—Comments on the Project By Commissioners Hathaway, Cravens, Smith, Uadley Goldtliwaite and Skinner.

The proposed Indiana Centennial in 1900 is becoming a subject of lively interest, and the general expr ession indicates that it is the wish of the people chat it should be made creditable to the 6tate in the highest degree. Commissioner Hathaway of Winamac, says regarding the project: "In my opinion nothing but good can result from a proper and fitting celebration of the centennial anniversary of the organization of Indiana territory by holding an exposition at the state capital, of at least three months duration, at the most opportune and appropriate time during the year 1900, that will not only reflect credit upon the originators of the proposed enterprise, but as well upon the great state that bears the name 'Indiana.' And when I speak of 'a proper and fitting celebration' I do not mean that we should limit the displays to the products of Indiana, for such, to me, would seem too much of the nature of a state fair. The gates, in my opinion, should be thrown wide open and the entire universe most cordially invited to assist in making it a 'Mid-Continent Exposition' on Indiana soil, the immensity of which should and will demand a few pages in future histories of the world. To me, there seems no end to reason why this should be done. The efforts of the eminent statesmen who shaped the boundary and destiny of this great territory deserve it. It- will afford the greatest possible medium for advertising our progress, enterprise and civilization and especially enable the population of Hoosierrtom to familiarize themselves •with the same, and Indiana, for her prominence in both peace and war, for her magnificent educational institutions and her ideal school system, for the scale and magnitude of her many and various state institutions, deserves more widespread advertising to the world in these particulars, that she may be properly classed and ranked a model among states for the same. An exposition properly celebrating this historic period would do all this and more it would be a source from which the citizens of Indiana would obtain the greatest possible knowledge of the products of their own state, the most fertile spot and portion of the great Mississippi valley, of the cereals and grasses of the Wabash, Ohio and White river valleys, of the virgin forests of the central and northeastern portions of the state of her rich fields of coal, iron, copper, marble, granite, slate and gypsum, of her various clays so abundant and valuable, of her wonderful gas and oil fields, and of the great development of her expanding manufacturing interests, assisted so greatly by from the 7,000 to 10,000 miles of railroads that traverse and permeate the entire state in every direction. Indiana, for her rapid strides in wealth, commerce and her social and political prosperity, deserves a front seat among the states of the nation and nothing will so quickly place hor there as an exposition proportionate with the importance of the event we expect to celebrate, participated in by the entire world. By all means let us have an exposition, complete in its every part, one that will be long remembered and ever classed as one of the greatest of the age, or none at all, is my idea of the proposed enterprise."

THE BEST STATE IN THE UNION. Asked for his ideas concerning the proposed Indiana centennial exposition, John W. Cravens of Bloomington, commissioner of the Fifth district, said: "I am heartily in favor of the exposition. It should be given in a manner that will •hed renewed luster on the name and faine of the best state in the Union. This cannot be done without funds. Financial matters are serious questions and from start to finish they must be handled by men of recognized ability ind strictest integrity."

"How about the sources of revenue?" "The expenses ought to be so divided among the government, the state, the oity of Indianapolis and the exhibitors that the burden will fall lightly on each, taking into consideration the great good that can be accomplished. Of course no exposition osght to be undertaken unless it is to Be made worthy the occasion." "What about the buildings?" was asked. To this Mr. Cravens replied, "There ought to be a main building that will be permanent—one that will continue to be the people's pride ever afterward. Each county should be given its share of space, and the products of glorious Indiana should be shown in detail. Take my own county of Monroe for instance. We have the best building stone quarries in the world. Think what a splendid display the stonemen could make." "What about an educational exhibit?" "Certainly, that ought to be made one of the chief features. Indiana has the best educational system in the United States. Our common schools are the foundation on which is built a peerless educational structure, the crowning glory of which is the most progressive university in the country— the Indiana University—located in Bloomington. Just think of it. In this congressional district alone are the State University, Depauw University, Franklin college, Central Normal college and many other institutions of higher education. All these ought, and doubtless will be elaborately represented iu the exposition. "So numerous are Indiana's products that we are a whole country unto ourselves. Everything that grows or is made is found here. We have more beauty and brains than any other state in the Union. We are going to furnish the presidential candidates for both the

Democratic and Republican parties next year. Why shouldn't we have a big exposition? The material is here. The crop is ready for the reaper, and the members of the centennial commission and all other sons and daughters of Indiana ought to enter the fields of grain at once." 'What have you to say in regard to the manner and extent of advertising the exposition?" "Judicious advertisement is the steam that makes the engine of any business move. If you have a good thing let the people know it. To the newspapers, more than to any other agency, will be due the success of the enterprise. This feature must be put in charge of men who are both practical and progressive. If the men in charge of this department will do their duty, the editors will do theirs. The thing to do is to inaugurate an exposition of merit. The press will keep the public posted, and the public will show its appreciation by its presence."

INDIANA'S GREATEST OPPORTUNITY. H. B. Smith of Hartford City, one of the Eleventh district commissioners, says: "There can be no question as to the desirability and importance of the proper celebration of the centennial of the organization of Indiana territory. Plans should be adopted for such a showing as will be hi keeping with the size, importance and dignity of our state. Indiana is one among the very best states of the Union, with general resources second in importance to none. In the past our resources have not been brought to the attention of the country as they should have been. The proposed centennial, if properly planned and managed, will give us the opportunity to do so, and will be of incalculable benefit to the state, instructive and interesting to our citizens, as well as a great and valuable advertisement of our state. To meet with the success that the proposed celebration should it will be necessary to have the earnest support of all of our people, which I think we will have when the matter is brought to their attention. Therefore, the subject should be agitated, discussed and in every way possible brought to the attention of our citizens and get them thoroughly aroused to the importance of the enterprise, and it can and will be made a success."

Commissioner J. C. Hadley of Logansport says: "It is too early yet to express views in detail, though I feel that the importance of some sort of a celebration ought to be thoroughly impressed upon the minds of all citizens. I believe that we ought not to attempt to give an exposition with the hope of attracting the world that would be too big an undertaking and might not be a success. But we can hold aD attractive exposition for our own state's people and those of adjoining states. I would think that the work ought to be permanent in a degree, so that after the exposition is over there will remain a monument in the way of an art hall or a state museum that will forever be an object of interest."

Commissioner Goldthwaite of Marion thinks that the legislature should authorize a tax levy of at least 2 mills on taxable property for a fitting centennial celebration. "Whatever is attempted," he says, "should be commenced deliberately and on a sure foundation. Davy Crockett's motto should be strictly adhered to."

Hon. DeFoe Skinner of Valparaiso, one of the commissioners at large, says: "There is a class of people wholly unused to enthuse over our progress or growth in the direction of great achievements, and yet no one can be indifferent to the fact that we are on an ascending scale—so much so that we already match and have exceeded the attainments of many older communities and states. "The organization of Indiana as a territory was an event of great historic value, and gave to the then frontier an impetus which has resulted in a civilization without a parallel in the annals of any people. This being so, what more fitting than an exposition commemorating the first century of our existence why not publish to the world the pride, we feel in the developments of our first one hundred years? "From a wilderness within the memory of living man we have risen to a great state, containing 2,500,000 of intelligent, industrious and thrifty people, with laws affording protection and support to every measure and means of merited need. To think about it is to become enthusiastic, and the hope follows that the commission appointed under a resolution of the last general assembly will devise a plan to be submitted to the next legislature fully enabling it to take the proper steps necessary to carry into full effect the purposes of the resolution. That the state is able to thus emphasize its marvelous advancements no one doubts. How to best do this is a question to be considered. To Ihis end the commission will labor faithfully, and we may hope successfully."
