Buyder and T. M. Robbins, of Crawfordsville, were in the city yesterday making arrangements for a series of races to bo given at the Exposition grounds, in tins city, beginning May 30, and continuing four days, under the auspices of the Orawfordsvllle Trotting Association. Nearly all arrangements have been completed, and some unusually Interesting racing is promised. The Indiana and Illinois circuit, comprising seven meetings, now includes Indianapolis. They open at Crawfordsville, coming to Indianapolis second, and going thence to Terre Haute. Purses to the amount of $4,000 will bo offered for the races here, and some of the fastest horses in the West will enter. The entries close on the 12th inst. The management is carefully looking to the details of the affair, and announce that they will make it the attractive sporting feature of the summer. Wrecked by Whisky and Opium. In the Criminal Court, yesterduy, Roland Dukes, charged with stealing a horse and carriage, the property of Mrs. Civllia C. Mick, was acquitted, it being fbown that, owing to the lon-CoDtinutd use of opium and alcohollo stimulants, he was of unsound mind. A commission of lunacy then passed upon his case, and ordered that lie be scot to the Hospital for tbe lusaue. Dukes was at one time a man of means and influence, and held high railroad positions. The failure of the scheme to build a line from Harrodsburff, Ky., to the Clay-county coal fields, in which lie was heavily interested, in 1875, upßet him financially and physically, and since that time he appears to have been little more than a wreck of ids former self. Thr most necessary piece of furniture to a business man is a convenient office desk. King fe Elder have ilium in all styles,

A PASTOR’S RESIGNATION. Dr. Pierson Severs His Relations with the Second Presbyterian Church. The Rumors Prevalent in This City Coii- r firmed by a Dispatch from Detroit— Causes of the Resignation. ♦ Beveral days ago the Rev. Arthur T. Pierson, pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church of this city, went to Detroit. He is not to return until to-morrow night or Friday morning. In the meantime rumors are flying about that the reverend gentleman has resigned his charge in this city, and will In a few days sever the relations with the Second Church, which began only last October, and which, though brief, have been for the most part pleasaitf. The elders of the church are exceedingly reticent regarding the subject of Mr. Pierson's resignation. In an interview held last night with oue of the elders by a Journal reporter, who had tracked him to bis home, the following ambiguous information was gleaned: “No, Mr. Plersou has not sent in his resignation. He has not been satisfied with his work here. He expected to do evangelical work, and that the church was to be enlarged ora tabernacle built. Greater room was needed to reach the masses. Aotion was taken in the matter, and tne trustees and congregation were in favor of it. Most of the elders were away, but those who were here favored the enlargement of the church. But nothing has been done in the matter, aud last week ue sent in a letter to the session of the elders.” “Can you give the purport of the letter! He was dissatisfied, wasn’t he!” “He was dissatisfied, but there was no word in it about resigning, although it might be taken as an intimation tnat he would resign unless some things were done. Ido not think lie will re&igu, luo nor think he has any intention of resigning. I,tor one, am in favor of enlarging the. church; or, better yet, of building a tabernacle.” The impression, however, is that the letter to the elders maj’ b taken as a preliminary step in the direction of a resignation, aud the follow ing special dispatch to the Journal from Detroit seems to confirm that Impression beyond doubt: Confirmation of the Reported Resignation, especial to the Indianapolis Journal. Detroit, May I.—The Rev. a. T. Pierson, of Indianapolis, has resigned the pastorate of the church of which be is pastor. He is now in Detroit. The reason for this step, as stated by Dr. Pierson, are as follows: When he went to ludianapolis, some months ago, it was with the understanding that the church to which he went was to be enlarged. Action was, however, deferred until the return of certain members of the church who were out of town. As time progressed it became evident that there would be nothing done. If the work had been pushed when I)r. Pierson first went to Indianapolis it would have been carried through, but as tne matter stands there are 200 more mem hers than the seating capacity of the church will accommodate. There is no illfeeling whatever on the part of any one. It has been proposed to build a large tabernacle, blit Dr. Pierson will have nothing to do with the project, as it would he likely to create a division in the most important church of that denomination in the State, and this I)r. Pierson does not propose to do. As he now feels lie intends to devote himself, for a few years, to the work of au evangelist.

They Met the Enemy. The game of base-ball between the ludianapolis and Port Huron clubs at the home grounds, yesterday, was perhaps the most uninteresting yet played, and resulted in the customary defeat of the Indianapolis boys. Beck, the pitcher Tor the visitors, was most exasperatiugly Affective, and the home club succeeded in getting but three safe hits, while the Michiganders pounded Murphy, the new man from New Orleans, for twelve hits and a total of seventeen bases. Ptdtz, tlie other new man from New Orleans, caught, but did ouly fairly good work, allowing two men to score on passed balls, and making but one hit. Callahan hit Beck for two bases in the sixth inning, but died at third. Eight of the Indianapolis players struck out, and two of the visirors failed to hit the ball after three times fanning at it. Clifton, the new second baseman, easily carried off the honors for the home club, and is a ball player of ability, if his work veßterday is a sample of what he can do. In the eighth tuning Beck made the longest hit ever made on the grounds, pounding the hall clear over O’Leary’s head to the extreme northwest corner of the field, and easily scoring a home run. When the announcement is made that the close of the game found the home club with one. score, against their opponents’ ten, the public will agree that the least said about it the better. The mantle of charity is therefore gently thrown over tb score. The two clubs play agaiu iC-tzy, GAMES ELSEWHERE. Detroit, May I.— Cuioagos 7, Detroits A. Columbus, May I.—Eclipses 6, Columbus 5.

The twenty-first annual session of the State Physio-Medical Society began in the hall of Wright’s block, yesterday morning, with about thirty members in attendance, among the number being Dr. T. J. Jernigan, of Texas; Dr. B. C. Barton, of Obio, and Dr. A. F. Elliott, of Minneapolis. The morning session yesterday was devoted to the discussion of “Materia Medica” and “Theory and Practice,” by Drs. Needham, Huston, Hasty and R. 8. Smith. In the afternoon the subject of “Surgery” was presented by Professor E. Anthony, and at the session last evening the mewbere generally engaged in a discussion of questions relating to the practice of medicine. This afternoon a national Physio-Medical association will be organized, a meeting of the members of that school of medicine throughout the country having been called. The officers of the association for the next year will be elected to-day, and the president, I)r. J. Redding, will deliver his annual address this evening. The session will continue until to-morrow eveuing. The Federal Grand Jury. The Federal grand jury was impaneled and charged by Judge Drummond yesterday. The following named persons constitute the jury: George W. Carter, of Poplar Grove, Howard county; George P. Enseviler, Richmond: R. 8. McKee, Colonel Oran Perry, Hilary Clay, John W. Murphy, James H. Smart and Herman Lieber, of Indiauapolis; David A. Whitson, O z en county; Miles Anderson, New Castle; Isaac N. Evans, Laporte; Moses C. Culver, Lafayette; Richard E. Reed, Hendricks county; Andrew Fletcher, Henry county; John Reynolds, St. Josephs county; M. G. Sherman, Michigan City; Joseph H. Mills, Delaware county, and W. IT. Cash, Danville. Those In the regular panel who were excused from service were Joshua M. Iltsl and William M. Stewart, of Terre Iluute; Adams ‘'Earl, of Lafayette, Charles Robluson and N. E. Tomlinson, of Madison oounty. In their places the persons chosen were Charles Meyer, C. Freidgen, Baoswell Ward, William Hadley and M. L. Johnson, of this city. Under the Wheel. George Weise, a German, employed at the Malleable Iron-works, was instantly killed and horribly mutilated at the 1., B. & W, switch, near the works in Haughsville, abot 5 o’clock yesterday afternoou. He hud finished his day’s work and started to the city on foot, but seciug a pony ougine ou the switch just starting for town, ho attempted to step on the foot-hoard of the tender and ride in. Iu doing so he missed his footing aud feel under the wheels, ino sots of trucks passing over Ins body before the engine could be stopped. The third set of wheels stopped on the unfortunate man and wedged him in so tightly that it was impossible

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, MAY 2, 1883.

to move them without grinding him m pieces, and it was necessary to get a set of jackscrews aud lift the engine in order to extricate the mangled form. Weise was a recent arrival in America and spoke no English. He boarded at the Germania Hotel, and had no relatives or frieuds in the city. Cigar Stamps. Yesterday and day before were busy days at the office of the Collector of Internal Revenue. Day before yesterday’s business was the largest for any single day the office has done, the receipts reaching $11,748. This, for the most part, was special tax for the year, tobacco and liquor tax, and seems to have concentrated this year, instead of being spread over a month or six weeks. The office was opened, yesterday morning, to accommodate those who wanted the new stamps for cigars aud tobacco, at 5 o’clock, aud before 6 over $450 worth had been sold. These fieures are small compared with those of the collectors’ offices of Louisville and Cincinnati, as Indianapolis does not take high rank as a tobacco manufacturing center. 8o far as plug tobacco is concern, there Is but one manufacturer, C. Oliver, in the district, and he is by no means a large one. There are numerous cigar manufacturers, bur none of them manufacture on an extensive scale. During the day about $7,000 worth of cigar stamps were sold, the largest purchasers being Andrew Steffen, M. Kickoff and Johu Rauch. It was thought by retail cigar dealers that the reduction of $3 a thousand tax on cigars would bring a corresponding reduction in price, but suob, it appears, is not the case. Manufacturers have been compelled toadvauce workmen’s wages $1 ou a thousand, aud the remaining $2 they will add to their profits. Church Entertainments. The cantata, “Under the Palms,” to be given to-night at Memorial Church, will have several novel features, and the entertainment will be of a very pleasiug nature. The cantata includes about twenty solos and quartets, and the chorus, in addition to the members of the oholr, will consist of 150 children, for whose accommodation a large platform has been erected. The church will be specially decorated for the occasion. At a concert to be given this evening at the Second Preßbyterian Church, Professors Heine and Newland, Mrs. Anna Walker, Mrs. Scott, Miss Harrison, Miss Culbertson, Miss Harvey, Miss Wood, Mrs. Levering, Mrs. Thom, Miss Robinson and Messrs. Meyer and Glover will contribute features. The social the young folks of Christ Church are to give this evening in the chapel will be a most enjoyable affair. The object is novel, and ought to attract the attendance aud purses of the church people. The idea is to hang the first church hell in Washington Territory. The new bishop of the new diocese is Rector Bradley's old pastor, and he asked the young folks to send the hell. The Caltfornia-street M. E. congregation will also give a concert and literary entertainment at the church this evening, in which some of the best local talent will take part.

Infectious Diseases. Mrs. Katie Clay, colored, was removed from No. 174 West North street, yesterduy, to the pesthouse, with a well-defined case of small pox. There are now nine cases of small-pox at the pest-house. The order for the removal of W’alter J. Berndt to the pest-house came too late. Ho died at No. 170 South Illinois street on Sunday. In the eight or nine cases in Indianola, there has been but one death. These cases were nearly all varioloid. It is now thought there is no further danger, and the quarantine at Indianola will be removed to-day. Measles are becoming epidemic. Eight or ten cases are reported daily to the board of health. Demanding Their Pay. Nearly a dozen members of the old police (so summarily displaced by the metropolitan force) called at the city clerk’s office, yesterday, and made a formal demand for two weeks* pay—for the latter half of April. It is understood that this is the initiatory step in a suit against the city, to make a teat case, These members of the old force hold that they cannot bo dropped from the pay-roll except for misconduct or cause, that they are employed from year to year, aud their year does not end until Jan. 1, 1884. A Serious Fall. About 3:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon the scaffolding on the residence of J. F. Holt, on Vermont street, near East, fell. Two carpenters were upon the scaffolding at the time, and were hurt. They were taken to Bt. Viuoeut's hospital near by, where they were cared for until removed to their homes. One of them, named Collins, is injured internally; the other escaped without bri?Kn bones, but is badly bruised. Some spring underwear that, struck our fancy at Parker’s has fine stripes of light blue and ecru ou a ground of old gold.
