I was positive Mr. Vilas would go into the Cabinet. Mr. Cleveland said tie thought so much of Mr. Vilas, and felt himself under so many obligations to him, that he hoped he might be able to show his gratitude. Why, the President would have accepted \ ilas for three months if he could not have secured him for a longer period. Mr. Vilas was his first Cabinet officer selected. And while on this i point let me add that Mr. Garland was really the last Cabinet officer selected, when the country believed he was the first.” “How is that?” I asked, somewhat astonished. “Mr. Cleveland talked with Mr. Garland about going into the Cabinet at a very early day. Then he dismissed him from his mind. Meanwhile, the press hurled it everywhere that Garland Was selected, and it was talked 6f constantly. Just before coming here, and after the Cabinet had all been fixed upon, leaving Mr. Garland out, the latter heard of the slate and went to Buffalo to see about it. When told that he was left out, Mr. Garland requested to be taken in, saying the talk about his going into the Cabinet would ruin him politically if he was left out. The President changed his slate, and Mr. Garland eame in.” THEIR MOTHER’S OLD PASTOR. Why the President Took a Pew in the First Presbyterian Church. Washington Capital. Just before the inauguration some friends in Kew York State wrote to Mrs. Sunderland, expressing the desire to come to Washington to witness the inaugural coremonies. Mrs. Sunderland wished to write back an invitation for them to be her guests; but they were warm friends of Mr. Cleveland, and her husband had been so bitter against him that she said to her daughter: “Your father will be sure to say something to hurt their feelings.” She decided, after much trouble of mind, to gently hint -this to the friends and relieve herself of apparent inhospitality. To her surprise they replied that they should not mind anything he said, or feel hurt in the least. They came, and the united efforts of Mrs. Sunderland and her daughter kept the Doctor pretty well behaved. But after the inaugaration the friends wished to go to the White House. Mrs. Sunderland thought it only courteous to accompany her guests, and wanted her husband to go with them. He flatly and firmly refused. His wife was much distressed, but, taking their daughter, went with the friends to Miss Cleveland’s first Saturday reception. When the ladies were introduced, Mrs. Sunderland was named, and if Miss Cleveland knew her she betrayed no sign of recognition; but when Mrs. Dr. Sunderland approached Mrs. Hoyt, the President's other sister, the latter held her hand and said: “Tell mo if you are the wife of the Rev. Dr. Sunderland, once my dear mother’s Did your husband ever preach at Batavia, N. Y.?’ “Yes: when a very young man —before he had a call to Washington,” replied Mrs. Sunderland, a little embarrassed as she thought of her husband’s feelings towards the President. “Oh, I'm so delighted to meet you, and I want to see your husband. My dear mother was devoted to him, and her friends must be ours. My brother will be so glad to meet him, too. I hope you will come again and bring Dr. Sunderland,” said Mrs. Hoyt, showing so much pleasure that Mrs. Sunderland promised to go, forgetting for the moment how her husband had set his face against going to the White House. When she told her husband he slowly said: “Well, I won’t retract what I have said, but I may go some time,” A few days after the family’ at the White House talked over their mother's young pastor and decided that he should be their own. The diagram of the First Presbyterian Church was sent for and family pew No. 132 was taken. MINOR MENTION. Western Opposition to Repeal of Pre-Emp-tion and Timber-Cultnre Laws. Bpecial to the Indianapolis Journal Washington, April 7.--A storm of protest Will come from the far Western States and Territories when this Congress assembles next December, against the proposition to repeal the pre-emption and timber-claim laws, so that settlers cannot secure but a quarter section of land from the government, instead of treble the amount, as now. It is stated here that the officers in the Interior Department favor a retrenchment of this character, and a saving of the public domain, as well as of the dollars in the treasury. A desperate effort is to be made to repeal and amend a good many of the laws governing the public domains. Indiana Patents. Bpecial to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, April 7.—Patents were issued to Indianians to-day as follows: James A. Ball, Thornton, hay-stacker; David Bearty, New Castle, lawn-mower; George S. Black, assignor to E. C. Atkins & Cos., Indianapolis (two), saw-settine device and saw guide; Edward S. Cobb, Terre Haute, drawing stand; Christian D. Cowgill, Terre Haute, plotter for tinners’ use; Parmer li.

Bpecial to the Indianapolis Journal, Washington, April 7.— Considerable talk has been indulged in her® among the friends of exSenator McDonald about the conduct of Bayless W. Hanna since his for the two missions for which he had applied. Hanna has on two or three occasions berated McDonald roundly for having failed to support him earnestly. In a recent camß ,, sation he criticised the appointment of Rufus Magee, and denounced him as a “mugwump’’ who was no fit exponent of Indiana Democracy, and not entitled to recognition at the hands of the administration. It is reasonably certain that whatever chances Bay less may have had for preferment have been dissipated by this sort of talk, which has been widely commented upon. Denunciation of Ex-Speaker Carlisle. Bpecial to the Indiaaapolis Journal. Washington, April 7.—Kentucky office seekers are complaining bitterly because Speaker Carlisle has not helped them in their endeavors to get places. They say they came here and worked for him when he was running for the speakership, and have lent their aid whenever he wanted it in the blue grass Stite, and now he runs away to the New Orleans exposition and leaves them to cool their heels at the depart ments and the White House. Phil Thompson’s friends state that Mr. Carlisle has done nothing for him; that he has been expected here daily to work for him, and that the information that he will not come, but will go South, is a piece of ingratitude and indifference they cannot forget fxor forgive. Mr. Frellnghuysen’e Condition. Washington, April 7.—A telegram was repaired hare to-day from the home of ex-Secre-

♦•vy Frelinghuyseov saying that his condition was the same as yesterday. The dispatch further said that he might linger in his present condition for some days. Mrs. Frelinghuysen is reported as improving. General and Personal. Special to tho Indianapolis Journal. Washington, April 7. —Hoosiers say Colonel Farrar, of Connersville, is very much disappointed because he was not chosen Deputy Commissioner of Pensions to succeed Judge Walker, instead of Colonel McLean, of Terre Haute. Colonel Farrar is here, and will look out for something else. Gen. Thomas J. Brady has sold the Evening Critic, and will give possession of it on Monday next It is understood that his friend Hallett Kilbourn is representing a pool that makes the purchase, and that the price to be paid is $50,000. General Brady will make this his home at present, but intends spending much of his time in New York. It was rumored this afternoon that Gen. Fitz Hugh Lee, of Virginia, is to be appointed United States marshal for this district Friends of Gen. John W. Foster say he will be retained as minister to Spain at least two years, as it will take that long to put the SpenishAmerican treaty into effect, if it is ratified, or to definitely determine that it is not to be ratified. He expects to sail from New York on the 22d. Andrew Jackson Gross, of Cloverport, Ky., has been appointed United States marshal for that State. It is understood that Col. W. E. McLean, of Indiana, will be appointed First Deputy Commissioner of Pensions. GARFIELD’S WIDOW. She Writes a Letter Denouncing as False the Rnmor of Her Intended Marriage. New York, April 7. —From the Tribune of Wednesday morning: “Camden O. Rockwell, the brother-in-law of Mrs. Garfield, mentioned, in a recent letter to her, the newspaper stories about .her reported intention to marry again, and has received in reply a letter, written on the 4th of April, from which we take the responsibility of making an extract. It will be seen that she thought a dignified denial by her friends might be proper, but nothing, as it seems to us, can be more proper and effective than her own womanly words. “This cruel rumor, which seems to have been afloat for two or three months, did not reach me till three days ago. Nothing that has ever been said about me has so hurt and offended me as this, and the deepest humiliation is that so many are ready to believe it. To me it seems just as much an insult to be asked whether it is true as it would be were the dear General still hero. That any one can think me capable of being faithless to his memory seems like being regarded a criminal. A dignified denial by my friends, I suppose, can do no harm. Still, it hurts me to feel that any denial is needed." —' - .. ■ A MARRIAGE OF MIDGETS. Mrs. Gen. Tom Thumb Wedded to the Count Primo Magri of Italy. New York Special. 6th. Mrs. Charles S. Stratton, known better to the world as Mrs. Gen. Tom Thumb, to-day assumed for the second time the ties of marriage, being united in wedlock to the Count Primo of Italy, a gentleman of about her own dimensions who has won some distinction in variety shows. It had been decided to have the wedding take place quietly in church and admit only invited guests. A list was made out of a sufficient number to comfortably fill the Church of the Holy Trinity. The ceremony took place a 3 o'clock this afternoon. At 2 o’clock the throng was so dense in Forty-second street and Madison avenue that traffic was obstructed until fifty policemen arranged a passage. The crowd was entirely made up of women and girls. By 2:30 o’clock all the seats in the body of the church and by the galleries were filled, and long lines of guests began to form in the aisle and along the walls. A few minutes before 3 o’clock a carriage rolled up before the cljureb door, and there was tremendous cheering from the crowd as the bridegroom descended the steps accompanied by his fiance’s bridesmaid, Miss Lucy Adams, who is no larger than Mrs. Thumb. Count Magri wore a correct wedding costume and beamed with pleasure. Five minutes later Mrs. Stratton entered upon the arm of Major Newell, husband of Mrs. Stratton’s 6ister, the late Minnie Warren. The guests in the church were obliged to stand upon their seats to see the little people go down the aisle. The Rev. Dr. Wilbur F. Watkins was waiting. There was a rush as the bridesmaid and the best man stood aside and Dr. Watkins read the Episcopal marriage service, the Count putting the tiny ring upon his bride’s finger with affectionate devotion. As soon as the sentence of the clergyman made them man and wife Count Magri threw his arms about his wife’s neck and kissed her. There was laughter in the church when the tall clergyman stooped over and kissed the bride. The crowd were still in waiting outside of the church when the newly-married pair came forth to enter their carriage, and followed the vehicle to the Murray Hill Hotel, where the reception was held. The Count Magri and his bride will make a wedding tour to Europe shorlly. A VISIT TO JEFFERSON DAVIS. The Cause of the Recent Illness of the ExConfederate Chieftain. Vicksburg Special. A correspondent visited Hon. Jefferson Davis at his residence at Beauvoir, Miss., yesterday morning. In response to his knock the housekeeper came to the door and said that Mr. Davis, although confined to his room, was pleased to receive visitors. He was ushered into a cozily fitted up bed room, with a cheerful fire burning in the grate. At a center table the venerable soldier and statesman sat writing, and was told that the call as at the request of old friends in whose m.uds doubts existed as to the true state of his health, owing to conflicting rumors regarding it After a eraceful acknowledgment of gratitude to his inquiring friends, Mr. Davis said that during a visit to his plantation on the river, in January last, he was exposed in a boat, and, getting wet, suffered severely with inflammatory rheumatism, which had compelled him to keep to his bed for several weeks. His illness, while not serious, was extremely painful. At the present time he felt in his usual health, with the exception of a swelling in his feet, which kept him confined to bis room, although he had for a shfort while walked on the gallery during the forenoon, but was perforce compelled by his affliction to remain in a room by a fire, He takes his sufferings as he has accepted the vicissitudes of the life through which he has been, with xthilosophical resignation, prepared at all times for the inevitable, and looking forward with a faithful trust iu the promises that are made for the hereafter. The correspondent did not intrude long on the old veteran's time, though warmly pressed to remain longer, and left him after a candid invitation to call again and renewed regards to his old friends. A Singular Promotion. San Francisco Chronicle. Nothing in the history of the French expedition in Tonquiu is so humorous as the report of the sudden promotion of the coolie who shot General Negrier at the recent battle of LangSon. To make a private soldier a general in the army and to give him a liberal pension for such service is peculiarly Oriental in its character. Sharp-shooting ought to be popular in the Chinese army with sucQ rewards for skill as thia Sane but Silly. Philadelphia Preen.

TELE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1885.

A SELF-RELIANT LITTLE WOMAN. Annie Koppel, the Immigrant, and Her Young Charges. New York, April 7.—A little blue-eyed, flaxenhaired girl formed the head of a very juvenile procession that filed into Castle Garden from an emigrant barge yesterday morning. The little girl was Annie Koppel, eleven years old. She turned around every now and then and gazed solicitously at the rest of the procession, made up of Martha Koppel, aged seven, Hans Koppel, aged five, and two-year-old Katie Koppel. A big bewhiskered German picked up Katie and set her on one of his mighty shoulders. Katie was delighted, but Annie looked up in alarm and cried to the big German, “Be careful! You will let the child fall.” “Never fear, little mother, ” said the big German. stooping down and stroking Annie’s hair with his disengaged hand. The broad, fatherly smile that shone through the big German’s whiskers reassured Annie, and she returned to her place at the head of the line. Annie stepped in front of the recording clerk, and told him her name and the names of the rest of the procession. She showed tickets to St Louis, and said she was going there to meet her mother. “How much money have you got?” asked the clerk. “None,” replied Annie. “What are you and the babies going to live on before you get to St Louis?” Annie said she thought St. Louis was only a little way from Castle Garden, and that she wouldn’t need anything until she got there. Then she calmly asked: “How much would be required to feed the children and me?” until they reached St Louis. Somebody said: “About $2.” Annie corrugated her white brow, thought a moment and asked the clerk if he would lend her $2, saying she would give him a receipt for it and send the money back when she got to her mother. The clerk gave her the money, and, when she had the money, she made oat a receipt. to which she attached her signature in a clear, business-like hand. She put the money in her pocket, turned around and smiled on her smaller companions, and said: “Come on, children,” and the procession moved on. MINISTER PHELPS’S HOME. An Establishment Which Is Truly English in All Its Details. Burlington Letter, in Boston Herald: Hon. E. J. Phelps, newly appointed minister to England, has one of the loveliest homes, here in Burlington, that can be found anywhere in New Eugland. The moment a traveler’s eyes lighted upon the house and grounds of the distinguished lawyer, he would say: “Why, that is an Englishman’s home, isn’t it?” Mr. Phelps is not an Englishman, but he is an Anglo-maniac of the approved type; and with his love and admiration for evei'ything that is best in English customs and he has modeled his Vermont home after a modest English country-seat. There is a patrician air about the place which arrests the eye at once. The house itself, of brick, is low i and somewhat rambling, embowered in trees and vines. There is a northern L, containing Mr. Phelps’s study, a broad, but unpretentious porch in front,, and a vine-covered piazza on the southwest, overlooking the lake and the Adirondacks beyond. The lawn about the house is wonderfully fine in summer time, the admiration of the whole city, for there is not another such in town, nor, I doubt, v in all New England. It combines the quiet and natural elegance of an English park with the smooth shaven neatness of the American front yard. Its natural slope and long, rolling banks—not the ugly and prominent terrace so common in New England—are simply superb. One looking at them through the cool vistas of the trees has a luxurious sensation, as it were, of drifting and floating away, just between the velvet grass and the broad shadow of the leaves. The lawn is exquisitely kept, and extends far back of the house and deep into the orchard —not ending abruptly in coarse, ragged grass, tin cans and bits of kitchen rubbish, as the impertinent New England lawn usually does, but shading away like a picture into the background of garden and grove. Just over the fence to the south, however, is Mr. Phelps’s distinctively English park. A noble grove of yews, extending over nearly five acres of smooth and slightly sloping ground, verging upon a broad, sunny field, and all surrounded by the prim, high, aristocratic paling of the English park. Mr. Phelps takes the greatest pride in this grove; and well he may, for it is like a bit of stately old England mixed up in an American mosaic. No vandalism is now committed within its sacred precincts. No small boy scales the fence in search of “but’nuts,” or chases the chipmunk to his hole in tho loamy earth. The gray °quirrel knows he is safe from the sportsman's pursuit in that lordly iuclosure, and the birds which haved nested there for season after season in perfect security fill the air with their grateful songs. Avery English home without is that of our new minister to England; and within, also, the same atmosphere prevails. Everything about the house is rich and substantial. None of your thin veneering here. Dark woods prevail, like the sombre, stained interior of the English country mansion. You walk upon rugs and carpets so dark, and rich, and deep that they seem like meadow grass under your feet, and you might go from the top to the bottom of the house without hearing the sound of your own steps. Everything is quiet, genteel, subdued, so that there always seems to be a twilight atmosphere in the house. The pictures on the walls are no gaudy, resplendent canvases of flaring effects, but soft etchings, engravings, and here and there a small painting with a master’s initials in the corner. Skating Rinks and Museums Denounced. Providence. April 7.—At the Cathedral in this city, on Sunday, Bishop Thomas F. Hendricken occupied the Episcopal throne, and after the gospel of the mass, which he read in English, he discoursed to the congregation for the first time in many months. He discussed for a while the significance of the Easter feast, and then dwelt at some length upon the evils of skating rinks and “dime” museums. The Bishop said he had never attended a skating rink. He said that parents should exercise control over their children regarding their recreations, and carefully guard them from evil. These amusements, apparently so innocent, are far from being so. He interrogated a boy regarding his visit to a skating rink the past* week, who replied, when asked what he did there, that he was dressed up as a girl, and when asked where he obtained the clothes said he borrowed them from a girl. The moral to be drawn from this can be understood by all parents. In regard to dime muesums he said tattooed people, and the many varied monstrosities of nature exhibited to the public gaze, do not afford the tnost desirable instruction to the young. The money that was spent by children at such places would be sufficient to support a family. Where the children obtain the money , or how their parents could afford to give it, he was unable to see or explain. Let Miss Sweet Stick. Boston Herald. If the circumstances under which the resignation of Pension Agent Ada O. Sweet, of Chicago, is asked for by Commissioner Black are correctly stated, we hope she will follow Sumner’s advice to Stanton, and “stick.” Miss Sweet is the daughter of a gallant Union general, who succeeded him in the office eleven years ago. Her present term does not expire until April, 1886. But, though her resignation is asked for, the Commissioner expressly states, it is said, that the request is not based “upon any reason personal to Miss Sweet or the management of the office.” In other words, the place is wanted for somebody else. This is not reform. General Black’s most efficient and faithful predecessor in office, Commissioner Bentley, was removed by President Garfield for the same reason, and with the same personal and official assurances. The country rightly declared the action to be a blot on the Garfield administration. And the suspension of Miss Sweet would put a similar stain upon the present administration. It would not be like any thing President Cleveland has done heretofore to sanction it Nepotic Tommy. Toledo (0.) Commercial-Telesrara. “Uncle Tommy” Hendricks has removed the messenger of the Vice-president’s room and has appointed one of his nephews to the place President Cleveland has given a thousand times

better places to the brother-in-law of Carl Schurz and James Gordon Bennett; and perhaps we ought not to blame ‘‘Uncle Tommy,” who has only three offices in his gift, and has many more nephews than offices, for putting one nephew into one of his three places. A LEGISLATIVE COMPLICATION. A Conflict of Authority Between a County Judge and a State Senate. Nashville, Tenn., April 7. —A curious complication has arisen in the State Legislature. The Republican members of the Senate, in order to prevent the passage of a House bill providing for the registration of voters in communities having 1,000 inhabitants, absented themselves at roll-call yesterday, to prevent a quorum. The Sergeant-at-arms was empowered by the Speaker to summon, and, if necessary, arrest absentees. The Sergeant arrested Senator Ramsey, one of the absentees, last night, The latter applied for a writ of habeas corpus to Judge Reid, of the Circuit Court of this county, who commanded the sheriff to have the body of Senator Ramsey before him this morniug. Meantime, Senator Ramsey was brought before the bar of the Senate, which has been in executive session all the forenoon, and the sheriff was refused admittance to serve the writ on the Senate officers. The Senate has just adjourned, and Ramsey has been released. The.writ of attachment from Judge Reid for the arrest of the Assistant Sergeant-at arms is still in the hands of the sheriff, who has not been able to serve it The affair has produced considerable excitement, and numbers of people were attracted to the State Capitol this morning. Republican members of the Senate give as an explanation of their action the statement that they regard the registration bill as an attompt to disfranchise several thousand Republican voters. On the other hand, Democrats claim that the object of the bill is to prevent importation of illegal voters into the chief cities and to preserve the purity os the ballot. The Assistant Sergeant-at-arms subsequently appeared voluntarily before Judge Reid, whose decision in the matter of contempt is reserved. The Speaker of the Senate this afternoon appointed several additional Sergeants-at-arms, with instructions to prosecute the search for absentees. Several of the latter were discovered at 11 o’clock to night, in a room in the Maxwell House. They are locked in, and defy arrest, and persist in their refusal to present themselves at the bar of the Senate. Tlie Opinions of the Country Press. South Bend Reg a ter. One special thing to be admired in the Indianapolis papers, the Journal and News especially, is the attention they pay to the opinion of the country press. Apparently they appreciate the fact that the country newspaper directly represents the sentiments of the people. Senator Voorhees’s Movements. Washington Special. Hon. D. W. Voorhees will leave here on Saturday for Madisonville, Ky., where he goes to iry an important law case.

ALMOST INCREDIBLE. Emma Boynton, 857 Washington street, Boston, says: I have been afflicted for one year and nine months with what the doctors call rupia. I was taken with dreadful pains in the head and body, my feet became so swollen that I was perfectly helpless, sores broke out on my body and face, my appetite left me, I could not sleep nights, I lost flesh, and soon became so wretched that I longed to die. Physicians failed to help me. My disease daily grew worse, my sufferings became terrible. The eruption increased to great burrowing, foul-smelling sores, from which a reddish matter constantly poured, forming crusts of great thickness. Other sores appeared on various parts of my body, and I became so weak that I could not leave my bed. In this condition, and by advice of a wellknown physician, I began to use the Cuticura Remedies, and in twelve weeks was perfectly cured. STILL MORE SO. James E. Richardson, Custom-house, New Orleans, on oath, says: In 1870 Scrofulous Ulcers broke out on my body until I was a mass of corruption. Everything known to the medical faculty was tried in vain. I became a mere wreck. At times could not lift ray hands to my head, could not turn in bed, was in constant pain, and looked upon life as a curse. No relief or cure in ten years. In 18SO I heard of the Cuticura Remedies, usecl them, and was perfectly cured. Sworn to before U. S. Com. J. D. Crawford. Sold by all druggists. Price: Cuticura. 50c; Resolvent, $1; Soap, 25c.
