About 80.000 Subscribed by the Methodist Congregations of the City Yesterday. Yesterday was the day set apart for subscriptions to be taken by the Methodist congregations of this city, to aid Asbury University in securing the De Pauw endowment. It was thought that the Indianapolis district should contribute >1510.000 of the $150,000 required, by tbe conditions made by Mr. De Pauw, and of title amount about SO,OOO was subscribed yesterday, and considerably more pledged. At Meridian street M. E. Church the morning service was entirely devoted to Asbury, and appropriate speeches were made oy Governor Porter and C. W, Smith, in behalf of the iustituiion. The subscription here wasextremely liberal, amounting to $3,640, and enough pledges were received to make this amount $4,000 and probably $5,000. The most liberal contributions were tiiose of luuraiu Fletcher and T. P. Haughey, who gave SSOO each. At (Vntral-avenue Church $1,518 had already been Minsoribed, nod this will l>e increased to SI,BOO or probably $2,000. At Fletcher-pla< c church the subscription was $245, at Edwin Kay SSO and at Third-street Chmch S4O JyiOefal subscriptions were also made at Grace and Paftison M. E. rmirei.es. It was understood that the Roberts Park congregation, the largest in the city would adopt the same method as the other Churches in raising money, but at the beginning of the morning service yesterday it was announced that the trustees hail determined to solicit subscriptions privately, and that no public contribution would be taken. Bishop Bowman, who was present to conduct the service, was evidently of the opinion that a mistake had been made in this determination, and his remarks indicated as much. Doubtless the Roberts Park people will contribute liberally, however, as a committee was appointed, with Dr. Houghton as chairman, to solicit. Water for Richmond. There seems to bean abnormal desire for more water at Richmond, and on Saturday last articles of association for two water works companies were filed with the Secretary of Btate. The first has a capital stock of $300,000, and A L. Pogue, John F. Miller, I. R. Howard J. M. Gaar and Arthur M. Reeves as directors. The secoud has a capital stock of $200,000, and the directors arc George Long, John Long, Wm. Remlcks, Samuel Walker and 11. 11. Hodgson. Richmond, besides being one of the pi ettiest cities in the State, already has the reputation of being sober and orderly, and if it gets an over-supply of water there is danger of a reaction. King Er.ni.it have a large stock of hnokMiijes uad new patterns.

THE CITY CONVENTION. A Strong; Ticket Nominated by the Republicans McMasters for Mayor, Bruenig, Clerk; Patti sou, Treasurer, and Sautcey, Assessor—The Balloting. The Republicans of Indianapolis met In delegate convention at the Park Theater, on Saturday, and nominated candidates for city offices, who will be elected by a decided majority in October. Tlie convention was composed of representative men of tiie putty, who were deter- j mined to make only Ruch nominations us would ( meet with the support of the better element of j the people, and that they succeeded in doing this admits of no doubt. The tieket has on it the names of men of established character and well recognized fitness for the offices for which they have been selected, and the practical UDunltnity with which the nominations were made is a sufficient indloaMon that they were the undoubted choice of the party* in tins city. Tbe '‘machine” did not figure conspicuously in the convention. After the delegates had assembled the convention was called to order by George F. Branham, and the roll being called by W. O. Patterson, secretary' of the committee, it was developed that all the wards were fully represented. On motion of John B. Elam. Hon. Stanton J. Peelle was elected chairman, and in taking the ebair gracefully returned thanks for the honor. He said that the only preference lie had among the candidates was for those persons whom the convention might name. He congratulated the party upon the assurauces of success in October, and expressed the belief that at the same time the great State of Ohio would have gone Republican by a decided majority. L. D. McLain. James A. Pritchard, W. N. Harding, W. H. Nickerson, Harry Patton, G. 8. Wright, Joseph R. Perry, Harrison Tincber, A. W. Hatch ana James Suigrove were chosen secretaries, and after the order of nomination had been agreed upon, it was decided that the candidates should be simply named, without any pretentious oratorical display. NOMINATING A MAYOR. For Mayor, the following gentlemen were nominated: John L. McMaster, .of the Second ward, D. W. Grubbs, of the Twelfth, Robert E. Smith, of tbe Eleventh, M. L. Johnson, of the Fifth and N. S. Byiam, of the Third. Two ballots were taken, as follows: First.

That gentleman was not present at the tune, ami Mr. Bmith, one of the aefeated candidates, made a good humored speech, in which he pledged support to the ticket, although he said he could not bid farewell to his favorite ambition without great regret. Shortly* afterward Mr. McMaster made his appearance, aud was received with cheers. lie was happily introduced to the convention by Mr. Peelle, aud said: MR. M’.MASTF.R’s SPEECH. Gentlemen of the Convention: I burly know what response to make to this action of y ours. I may say this, however, that if I am elected to the office for which yon have just nominated me, I will endeavor to discharge the duties for the best interests of the entire city, believing that whatever is for tbe best interests of the eutire community is for the best interests of every portion of that community. Aside from presiding over the deliberations of your municipal legislature, my* duty will lie ‘largely that of administering the law in your City Court. This I shall try to do faithfully* and impartially, firmly but mercifully. Good government is largely a question of dollars and cents. What the people want is the best possible government for the least, possible money. The nominations made here to-day, as well as tiiose you shall hereafter make iu the various wards of the city, should be of that character that they will constitute so many pledges to the people that the money paid by them in the shape of taxes shall be faithfully applied to the purposes for which it is paid; that the expenses of the city government shall be kept down to the lowest possible figure consistent with good and efficient government. On all questions which I am called to consider, if elected, it shall be my earnest endeavor to do right after bringing to bear upon their consideration the best light of which I am capable. That I shall commit errors, I doubt not, for human judgment is so limited aud hemmed in by natural imperfections that they cannot be avoided. But I know the people will freely forgive errors of Judgment, if satisfied that an honesty* of purpose lies behind. Thanking you for this distinguished honor, and the very generous manner iu which it has been bestowed, 1 will occupy your time no further. THE OTHER NOMINATIONS. For city clerk, George T. Breunlg of the Seventh ward and James C. Wheat of the Becond were placed in nomination and tbe former got 114 votes to 36 for Wheat ou the first ballot, receiving the solid support of twelve out of the twenty-five wards. The nomination was made unaminous and the nominee returned thanks in an appropriate manner. For city treasurer, Isaac N. Pattison, the present incumbent. Wills R. Tarkiugton, and Frank Blanchard were placed iu nomination and the single ballot taken resulted as follows: Pattison 93. Tarkiugton 41, Blanchard 16, and Mr Putilson was declared nominated aud returned thanks. For Assesor, the following gentlemen were nominated: Millard F. Commit (present incumbent), Eugene Sauloy, A. M. Cole, Robert Kemp, George Newcomb and Joseph R. Shelton. Mr. Saulcy, in addition to having practical I y the solid support of the south-side, had a considerable following in the northern wards. He was easily nominated on tue first ballot, the vote being, Saulcy 78. Con nett- 25. Cole 7, Kemp 10, Newcomb 22, Sheltou 8. The result was received with tumultuous eheeriug, aud Mr, Sauloy did the houors gracefully. WHO TIIE NOMINEES ARE Brief Sketches of the Gentlemen Who Will Succeed the Present City Officers. Captain John L. McMaster is a prominent attorney, and a man who stands excellently in Ills profession aud in society. He was born iu Meigs county, Ohio, in 1843, and his early life was spent in hard labor on a farm.

the Ohio University, at Athens, graduating with distinction in 1869. He made his own way through college, earning money by work- 1 ing at spare moments. Ho men i took a course iu the Cincinnati Law School, ! graduating in 1870, and thon removed to this city and began the practice of law, in which he ' h<*s siuce been engaged. Last year he wus one ! of the Republican candidates for Superior judge. I and made a good race, but was defeated by Judge Taj*lor. Mr. McMaster is a gentleman of fine aituiniueuta, excellent judgment and upright character, and m nominating him the convention made a splendid selection. George T. Breunig, tiie candidate for city clerk, is one of the most popular and deserving yniuig men in the city. He is a German by birth, thirty-live years-of age, aud has lived in this city nearly all his life. By an affliction in his j'ouihfttl days he became , a confirmed cripple, and since has been unable to perform any kind of manual labor. For twelve years past he has been chief deputy ia the city clerk’s office and a more obliging and courteous official never attended to the wants of discontented tax-payers. Mr. Breunig is prominently identified with Severn l secret orders and will make a very strong race. It will be a ge:nine pleasure to vote for such a mail. T. N. Pattison wan renominated for city treas- ; urer, both on account of bis personal popularity and the fact that he lias made an excellent official. Mr. Pattison needs no extensive Introduction to Indianapolis people, for he has lived here many years and | is well known. He was formerly in the drug business here, and has been prominently identified with local politics since his res- i idence here. Eugene Saulcy, who made such a good race for ‘ assessor, has never hid any public position j other than those connected with the police force. ! he having been clerk of me board during the j last Republican administration. He is a young j man, extremely popular, and for several years ! provided for his mother and two sisters by hard work in tiie rolling-mill. Mr. Saulcy is a gentleman who improves on acquaintance, and who will make many votes by his personal qualities. OUGHT TO m A MORMON. The Details of Frank N. Scott’s Fifth and Last Matrimonial Venture. His Incarceration at Cincinnati and What the Papers of That City Say of It—Evidently a Gay Deceiver, Frank N. Bcott, of this city, a brier notice o* whose arrest at Hillsboro, 0., by Detective John McKinney, appeared iu this paper ou Saturday, is iu jail in Cincinnati, charged with perjury. Ou last Thursday, a week ago, Scott weut to Cincinnati and took rooms at the Queen City Hotel ana the following day Miss Georgie May Pressel, having run away from her home at No. 201 North Liberty street, putin an appearance, aud an hour later these twain were made one flesh, Scott having taken out a marriage license and 6Worn that the lady was over eighteen years of age, when, in fact, she has seen hut three birthdays, having been horn on the 29th of February and will not be sixteen until that date In 1884. Scott is fifty-two years old and the Pressei infant is his fifth matrimonial venture, two of his wives belug alive aud divorced aud two dead. In the fact that Scott has sworn to the child being of lawful age is the basis for the prosecution which the parents of the young bride propose to wage against bim. Scott is well kuown in this city, having been at one time leader of theCeoiliau singing society, and afterward press and advertising agent for Manager Dickson of this city. More recently Scott managed a Hazel Kirke company for the Madison-squaie Theater Company, and last season he was with James O’Neil on his starring tour. Ho has also trained a large number of colored jubilee singers lor the Uncle Tom business. One of Scott’s divorced wives, divorced from him in March last, lives in Cincinnati, aud appeared iu the court-room on Saturday when his cate was called, and though she took a keen interest in the proceedings did not testify. A little girl not quite two years old and a baby boy seven mouths old are souvenirs of her wedded life with Scott. ’Squire Herrider, of the Probate Court, who issued the license; DetectllG McKinney, J. Cooper, of Hillsboro, and the defendant were each examined, Scott conducting his own defense. Yesterday’s Cincinnati Commercial Gazette says: “Mr. J. Cooper, tlio uncle of the girl whom Scott would like to claim for his fifth wife, was put ou the stand, and tie stood a rigid examination. Mr. Cooper is quite au old man, aud has the manners of a solid furmer citizen. His answers to the questions put to him were f minted and provocative of much mirth iu the obby of unwashed spectators. He claimed to be the girl’s guardian, aud aaid that he had authorized her marriage to save her reputation. He stated that he had come to Cincinnati in response to a. telegram from the girl, met her at the Queen City Hotel, and learned from her own lips that Scott had seduced her, aud that a marriage with the niau she liad loved, aud trusted and eloped with was not only necessary but absolutely imperative in order to save, her from disgrace. He said he at ouce hunted up Scott and demanded that he make the only reparation possible within bis power, and that was to marry the girl. He did go to the court-house and try to get a license, notwithstanding the girl’s minority. He strove in every way to shield the niece in his testimony, aud what ho said was rather in Scott's favor. There was no streugtb, however, in his testimony, as the charge against, the prisoner was perjury, and Mr. Herrider testified that Scott swore that Miss Pressel was eighteen years of age. The prisoner w*as put upon the stand, and he testified that themarria.e had been forced upon him by Miss Preseel and her uucle, Mr. Cooper. Ho made a tremendous effort to defend himself, claiming that peculiar circumstances, unpleasant to all parties concerned, compelled him to swear falsely. Judge Von Martels, after weighing the testimony thoroughly, bouud Scott over to the grand jury on the oharge of perjury, and in default of SI,OOO the accused was committed to jail.” The wife of the prisoner was in court but did not testify. ‘‘After her husoand had been confined to a eel),” says yesterday’s Enquirer, “she was taken charge of by Mr. McKiuney. and while waiting in the Judge's private office an affecting scene took place. Mrs. Pressel, mother of the young bride, arrived in thiscity from Indianapolis at 9 o’clock this morning. She called upon the chief of police before seeking her daughter, and was very anxious to otter some testimony against Scott. Before her arrival, however, the case had been disposed of, which, probably, was a fortunate occurrence for tbe prisoner. Mrs. Pressel held a hasty consultation with Captain Deviue, ami was then escorted to tlie presence of her runaway daughter, who had not vet been notified of her mother’s presence In the city. The meetiug was a tender one, noth bursting into tears at the sight of each other. Mrs. Pressel implored her girl to return to her home and giro up the man who had proved her only attraction on earth. The daughter and bride replied: “No.no, mother; I cannot and will not leuve him. I cannot go home and stand the disgrace. This has all been made public, and I will never go back again.” Notwithstanding Her firm determination to remain away, however, she was finally persuaded to accompany her mother back to Indianapolis, and the two, accompanied by Officer Von Seggern. who has long been a friend of the faintly, departed for the depot to take the first train for the Hoosier capital, leaving Scott to reflect over his situation behind the bars of a cell in the Ninth-street Station-house. Scott is very indignant over tbe manner in whiob he has been treated, and declares that bis wife has been forced to leave him. He looks to her to aid him out of ids present difficulty, ntrd said she could procure the neoessary'bail for his release if permitted. The girl appeared willing to leave him, after the talk with her mother, but site parted, no doubt, with a great deal of reluctance. Mrs, Scott is now iu the city, having been brought home by her mother, accompanied by Mr. ('neper and Detective McKinney. Her objection to coming back was that she would be jeered and scorned by her young associates, but such let it bo hoped will not be the case, but that they will rather extend to her their cburlty and sympathy. When Scott is out of this little difficulty he will lie ready for another matrimonial venture. The next tune it will probably beau infant, cradle, rattle-box and teething ring. Horsford’s Acid Phosphate IN LIVER AND KIDNEY TROUBLES, Dr. O. G. Cilley, Boston, says: “l have used it with the most remarkable success in dyspepsia, and derange meat of the liver aud kidneys.’’

SPORTS OF THE SEASON. The Intiianapolis Club Defeated in the Game with the Shamrocks. Standing of the Clubs iu the League Races —Result of the Graud Avenue Game —Minor Mention. Tlio Contest with the Shamrocks. The Indianapolis club went down to Cincinnati yesterday with the premeditated determination or annihilating the Shamrocks, of that city. They failed to accomplish their hellish designs, however, and cauie home last night minus a Dail, which was donated to the ‘ enemy. The greatest interest had been j manifested in the result of this game j botli in Indianapolis and Cincinnati, aud j a large delegation of the club’s admirers accom ! panied them j esterday. Mckeon and Keenan j constituted the battery lor tue Hoosiers, aud . the Shamrocks preseuted McCormick, of the * Cincinnati league club, and Myets, their own j catcher. The Shamrocks were able to bat Me- ’ K.-on very freely, and the first four men to bat 1 iu the first inning made a single, a triple, single j and double base-hits, in the order named. The Indianapolis boys made six errors, 1 •'och of which contributed largely i to tb .■ defeat, and they were very unfortunate j in *. ir batting. Although they hit very hard, even for them, tlieir hits were unfortunately scooped in by the home club’s fielders. O’Leary carried off the batting hoiib/s, making four hits out of five chances. Callahan and Peoples made two bases, and Keenan a home run, the longest hit of the game—clear over the middle fielder’s head. The game was tied in the eighth inning, and McGinley had an excellent opportunity to score on People s two-base hits, but bad coaching or bad judgment resulteu in his staying on third base when he was left. Three thousand people witnessed the game, and even a very much larger crowd would have been in attendance had the weather been more propitious, THE SCORE.

Louis Browns, but the former was not very effective, aud ou the sixth inning gave way to Overbeck, who did better. Fred.

This afternoon the Columbus Association club will meet the home club on the Seventh-street grounds, and muon interest Is felt in the game, as the visitors wore victorious on a previous visit. Packard will probably pitch for the home club and Keenan catch. THE MUSIC FESTIVAL, Indications that Four Hundred Singers Will Attend the Coming Seengerfest—Work of the Committee. The Sivngerfest committee held a busy meeting. yesterday, at Llederkranz Hall. A number of letters from singing sooietics were read, indicating that the attendance at the oonoerts will be much larger than was anticipated. It was first estimated that the visiting societies would bring about 300 singers, but the way it looks now that number will be increased to übout 400. Several of the societies will bring music bands. "Reports from the stumling committees were received, all reporting good progrese, especially the guarantee fund committee. The members were requested to accelerate the work of soliciting subscriptions to the guarantee fund as much as possible, so that estimates may be made at an euriv date. In place of Mr. F. A. Maus, resigned, Mr. Ernest Kuodel wus appointed a member of the guarantee fund committee. Messrs. George F. Branham anti Paul Kruuss were added to the committee, which is to eoiicit subscriptions in the district bounded by Washington, North, Illinois and Alabama streets. The other rn\ vo * Ue 111 hers aro Messrs. Christ. Brink and ; Theodore Pfkfflin. The committee on decora ttons submitted a plan for the triumphal arch, prepared by Mr. Emil Metzner. The committee was given until next Sunday to report as to the costs and decorations of the arch and other details. Tnepionic committee was requested to report next Suuday as to place, railroad conveyance and other arrangements. Everything is moving along very smoothly aud satisfactorily with the committees. They find that the citizens, as a rule, are willing to assist them iu tlieir work, and the iudtcations are that tbe festlvul will surpass anytbiug of the kind ever given in this city. The festival takes place September 6,7, 8 and 9. New Suits Begun. The Ohio Light and Power Company has begun suit in the Superior Court to restrain Leonidas G. Woolley, or this city, from disposing of his electric headlight invention, which, it 13 claimed, he promised to sell to the plaintiff or, at least, au interest in it, but has since failed to do so. Albert Carter has applied for a divorce from Ella Carter to whom lie was married in 1879, alleging adultery with Peter Wells. Mrs. Mary F. Snyder has withdrawn the divorce proceedings instituted by her last week against John F. Snyder, who is now a patient at the city hospital as a result of eating opium aud morphine. Elizabeth D.
