It was before the amiable Simeon Coy attained distinction as a local statesman or the mistake would net have beea made. In August, 1876, Patrick Mullaney and Thomas Hayes had a claim against William J. Patton and Coy. They trotted to the courts to get a settlement, and in September obtained judgment Yesterday the *uit was revived by another complaint, in which h is set forth that plaintiffs sued Samuel Coy instead *f Simeon, but that was only an error in tame. They want to rectify the mistake and (ndgment upon the judgment debt for SSOO. The latest things in parlor goods at King & Elder’s.

TIIE NEW POSTAL DELIVERY Additional Details of the System To Be Tried by the Postoflice. The Cost of Delivery and the Methods To Be Employed—What the Government Expects of Postmasters. Postmaste- ooCea yesterday received further in .-.ructions from tho department at Washington regarding the new law providing for the immediate delivery system, which goes into operation on the Ist of October. With the letter came a list of 565 postoffices where letters bearing the stamp of the special service may be delivered, which has been posted conspicuously in the front part of the building for public information. There are in Indiana twenty-five immediate delivery offices. “You are enjoined,” the Postmaster-general 6ays in his letter of instructions, “to give your best judgment and diligent attention to the system. It is an object of great importance, and it is desired that the system should prove of high public utility. Although the ends sought by it are of unquestionable value, the system is necessarily an experiment, and its success depends largely upon the postmasters, and its success or failure in any locality will indicate the postmaster's official value.” The rules which are to regulate the system requiro that the carriers, when collecting letters, shall keep separate from other mail those bearing tho special delivery stamp, and that Loth in forwarding and delivering them there shall be all possible expedition, so that not one moment of time may be lost When all mails are received the letters delivery stamps are to be immediately assorted from the other mail matter, entered on record by numbers, and placed in the hands of the messengers for prompt delivery. “In the beginning,” Assistant Postmaster Dodd said to the Journal reporter, “we will probably employ not more than two boys, until we learn what the demands of the service are. We may employ boys not younger than thirteen years, or use ‘sub’ carriers when the3 r are without work. The ‘sub’carriers are now employed in filling the positions of the regular earriors who are taking the vacations allowed them, but all the regu ar men will have had their vacations in six weeks more. I think that we ought to use the psub’ carriers, if we can, and give them an opportunity to learn whatever they can during the time that they are not employed.” “Upon what terms tan you employ messengers for the special service? ’ “We may pay them 8 cents on each letter delivered, but the total amount shall not exceed S3O a month. Where sufficient business to justify it may be reasonably expected we employ messengers at the rate of 12 1-3 cents per hour, for eight hours a day. No car-fares are allowed, and the messengers must bo changed from good hours to hours when the business is light so that the work and the pay will be equalized as imuck as possible. We are required to keep a force on duty for the immediate delivery service from 7 o’clock in the morning until 12 at night. A number will be assigned to duty for certain hours on mails, and they will then alternate from busy to dull times. No uniform is required in the beginning, but thero will doubtless be some order from the department in regard to the matter after the system gets in good working order. The messengers will be required to carry registry books, something like the books of telegraph messengers, in which persons receiving special letters will register their signatures and the time of delivery.” “How soon wiil you appoint your messengers for this office?” “I don’t know. The rules require that the appointments shall be made as soon as practicable, and reported to the Postmaster-general.” “Are there any rules governing the appointments?” “The postmaster is at liberty to select any person whom he may think suitable, uot under thirteen years old.” The special delivery stamp Is oblong in form, 13-16 by 7-16 of an inch in size, of a dark blue color. On the left there is an arched panel, bearing the figure of a mail messenger boy on a run, and surrounded by the words “United States.” On the right is an oblong tablet ornamented with a wreath of oak and laurel, surrounding tho words “Secures immediate delivery at special delivery offices.” Across the top of the tablet is the legend, “Special Delivery Service,” and at the bottom the words “Ten Cents,” separated by a small shield bearing tho numeral 10. Alleged Fraudulent Conveyances. Recently, by Esquire Feibelman, judgments were given in favor of E. N. Cook & Cos., Hugh and Emma Sweeney being tho parties sued. The aggregate amount is $539.54. When a levy of execution was sought it is charged that Hugh Sweeney claimed exemption, as he had no personalty except household goods and no real estate. Yesterday Cook & Cos. filed a complaint in the Superior Court, alleging that there had been a fraudulent conveyance of real estate from Hugh to Emma Sweeney. They seek to have the conveyance set aside and the property subjected to execution. A suit of somewhat similar character was also begun by William 11. Uenschor against John S. aud Emma S. Smith. It is alleged that in February, 1884, Smith purchased a lot with his own money but had the deed made in favor of his wife. However, it is charged that the Smiths pretended the lot was in the name of the husband. Believing this to be the case, plaintiff contracted to build a house on tho lot for defendants, and he performed the work satisfactorily, but there is a small balance due on payment’s. He charges that the deed of conveyance was made to the wife in order to prevent him from getting his money for the building. He further says the deed has been withheld from record. He wants the deed declared null and void, and also seeks judgment for the balance due him. John C. Dalton’s Affairs. Tho recent assignment of John C. Dalton is to come into court on the complaint of Hendrickson, Lefier & Cos., which they filed yesterday. They charge that to securo the payment of a note for $786.38 given them by Dalton, on July 17 last, a chattel mortage was taken. It is claimed that this mortgage has precedence of others given on the same day, except that to Wm. W. Sickles for $383.59. It is alleged that mortgages executed in favor of Thomas Dalton and Corwin P. Sells for $1,231.20 and SSOO, respectively, were without consideration, or, if any indebtedness ever existed, it had been paid. Other mortgages, that of the Iron Bridge Hatters’ Association and N. J. Nascimento are, it is claimed, junior to that of plaintiffs. It is further stated the property so mortgaged is not sufficient to meet all these claims, and plaintiffs think tho affairs of Mr. Dalton should be turned over to a receiver, whose appointment they pray for. The Lawrence Township Trusteeship. Cornelius B. Wadsworth, of the internal revenue service, is inclined to hold on to the benefits of the Lawrence township trusteeship as well as of a United States office. Yesterday his successor, Adam Klepfer, as trustee, filed a complaint in the Superior Court against Wadsworth, hig brother, William F., Henry Crook and Samuel T. Hague, the three being sureties on Wadsworth’s SIS,OCQ official boud. Klepfer states that notwithstanding the county commissioners declared the office of trustee for that township vacant and appointed him to the place his predecessor has refused to turn over the books, pa*

pers, vouchers and money that i Q to his Eossession while trustee. The new trustee, owever, drew the amount due tho townsn.’P under the last distribution. The money which Wadsworth, it is alleged, has not accounted for is involved in the bank failures of last year. PERSONAL MENTION. Hon. W. T. Friedley, of New Albany, is at the Bates House* Col. H. H.

Dickson’s Grand Opera-house will be formally opened for the season of 1885-6, next week. Numerous changes and improvements have been made in the interior since last season, and more than ordinary interest attaches to the reopening. McNish, Johnson & Slavin’s Miustrels, of which Wm. Muldoon, champion Graeco-Roman wrestler, and Chas. W. Mitchell, the pugilist, are members, give a single performance on Wednesday evening. They will bo followed the rest of the week by the Wilbur Opera Company, in Gilbert and Sullivan’s now famous opera. “The Mikado. ” The Hollywood Opera Company will be at English’s all next week. Baby Clara and Master Dick aro among the cleverest of tho juvenile artists, and the company’s performances aro said to be very creditable. They have been rehearsing all summer. J. A. Brady, agent of the Wilbur Opera Company, is in the city. Tho company will appear at the Grand Opera-house in “Tho Mikado,” Sept. 3, 4 and 5. The Model’s Excursion. The picnic which was given the poor children of the city yesterday by the Model Clothing Company was the event of the day. Nearly 500 children, boys and girls, gathered at the appointed p’aco before 8 o’clock, and after marching through the streets, headed by the Model Band, the music of which could hardly be heard on account of the boisterous demonstrations of its enthusiastic followers, were taken to the Union Depot. Ten cars were filled by the crowd, and at 8:30 o’clock the train pulled out for Philadelphia, in Hancock county, here the young folks spent the day in the woods. There were 1,809 sandwiches, thirty gallons of ice-cream, and something less than a ton of cake taken along to feed the crowd, and it was altogether a great day for tho children. They were brought back in the evening, rather weary from their exuberance of enjoyment, but all willing to repeat tho experience at the first opportunity. John Schaffner fiurnished the ice cream and sandwiches gratis. Tectonic Statesmen at Variance. Alderman Bernhamer, the candidate for the Democratic nomination for mayor, called upon John P. Frenzel a day or two ago to ask the support of tiie ex-police commissioner. “I can’t do anything for you, Bernharcer,” frankly said Mr. Frenzel, “I am against you.” “Why?” inquired Bernhamer. “Well, it is my opinion that we ought to nominate some substantial and respectable man for mayor,” was the answer of Frenzel. In relating the interview to a friend, yesterday, Bernhamer said: “I should like to go before the public on the issue of respectability and let the people decide betwoen Frenzel and mo.” - ■■ The Teachers’ Institute. Another large attendance marked the session of the county institute yesterday. Prof. Jenkins conducted exercises on methods of questioning, physiology, geography and tho metric system, and Prof. Warfel spoke on the methods of teaching United States history and reading. Prof. McAvoy, of this city, gave an address on “Talking as a Fine Art,” and Prof. G. W. Thompson, of the State Normal School, conducted an exercise on penmanship. The institute closes to day. ■ - No Gold In Martin County. The people of Martin county are troubled with the ineradicable impression that the hills about Shoals are full of gold, and within the last few days a number of specimens of the supposed precious ore have been sent to tho State Geologist for examination. The specimens which have been received are sulphureted iron, worth about $3.50 a ton, delivered. The Maggie Marshal Guardianship. Judge Ayres yesterday decided that the objections made to Mrs. Caroline Scbaub's report of the guardianship of Maggie Marshall were well taken. It was further ordered that the guardian was indebted to her ward in a small amount and that sending the girl at different times to the care of tbe.House of the Good Shepherd and poor farm, was unjust Farewell Social to Dr. Marine* The social at the Church, tonight, will be of more than usual Interest, as it is the last during the Rev. Dr. Marine's pastorate, which will terminate on Sunday. Friends of the church and congregation, as well ns those of other denominations who have had an interest in the popular pastor, will be cordially welcomed.

DIED AT THE DEPOT. An Invalid En Route to His Illinois Home ])ies on the Cars. Immediately after the arrival of the 1., B. & W. train from Cincinnati, last night,’at 10.45 o’clock, Flanner & Hommown’s ambulance was called to the Union Depot, by telephone, to remove a sick passenger to the City Hospital. Before the ambulance arrived at the depot, however, the man died. the train left Cincinnati the stranger had complained of feeling slfck, and during the trip to this city he seemed to be ill from a chill. It was not supposed, however, that his iiiness was of a dangerous nature. The body was taken to the undertaking establishment of Flanner & Hornmown, and will remain there until the relatives of the deceased can be communicated with relative to his funeral. From letters found in the stranger’s possession it seems that his name is Joseph Wilcox, and that his home is in Farmington, 111. The letters indicated that he was a carpenter and had been working on a hotel building in Citra, Fla. One of the letters, which wa3 mailed at Farmington on Aug. 17. and was signed “Your loving daughter Sarah,” stated that tho family would expect him home sure on Sept. 1. He had evidently been away for soveral months, and was returning to his family when his death occurred on the train while in this city. In his pockets were found $lO9 in cash and a silver watch. A telegram has been sent to Farmington by Flanner & Hainmown, informing tho family of the death. A Fireman Seriously Injured. Yesterday afternoon a fire occurred at the Colored Orphans' Asylum, destroying a woodshed and an out-house, and involving a loss of about $l5O. A serious accident occurred on the way to the fire to fireman James M. Davis, who was riding on tho hook and ladder wagon. In turning a sharp corner on Mississippi street, near the asylum, Davis stepped off the wagon, and, slipping, he was struck by a wheel which rolled him over and dislocated a hip joint. The accident was very painful, and it required the united strength of Dr. Hodges and three assistants to pull tho joint again in place. Davis was badly bruised, and will be some time in getting completely well. An Injured Employe’s Demand. At the factory of the Indianapolis Chair Manufacturing Company, Isaac M. Keith was employed in 18S3. On Aug. 28, that year, he was injured by one of the machines at which he was working. In his complaint for $5,000 damages, filed yesterday, ho says the machine was old, defective, and not put up on an even floor, and that the foreman told him the company intended to put up anew machine. This promise led him to stay, after which the accident occurrod. A Very Tough Man. Judge Norton, of the Criminal Court, yesterday sentenced Charles Huston, tho seventeen-year-old lad who stole a horse from Ed. Clark, a farmer near Anderson, to three years in the penitentiary. Huston entered a plea of guilty, and said he took the animal because he wanted to be known as a hard character. “I want the people about my place,” said he, “to know that I am a tough one, hard to deal with, and that it is better for them to keep out of my way.” An Enjoyable Lawn Fete. A lawn festival, for tho benefit of Grace Episcopal Church, was held last night at the residence of Mr. William Edmonds, corner of Seventh and Meridian streets. A largo crowd of both young and old people were present, notwithstanding the rather chilly atmosphere, and the evening, amid refreshments and amusements of various kinds, was made pleasant and entertaining to all. Practicing What He Preaches. Thomas L. Chilton, who said in his communistic speech tho other night that rich landlords had no right to claim rent for their property, is defendant in a suit for possession of tho house No. 89 Lord street, in which he lives. Henry R. Bond says that Chilton's rent is overdue. The Work of Car-Thieves. Thieves are causing a great deal of annoyance in tho northeastern part of the city. Night before last they broke into a Wabash freight-car, at Bruce’s Park, and, opening barrels, boxes and packages, scattered goods here and there. They carried away nothing of value. Bobbing a Governor. Chicago News. Governor Gil Pierce, the distinguished executive of Dakota, reached Chicago yesterday. Ho had not intended to remain long in this delightful summer resort, but was obliged to change his plans. While whizzing merrily hither, some unconscoinable wretch made free with the Governor’s carpet-bag, ignoring the fact that by so doing he touched him in a most vital point The Governor was on his way to Washington, to file about seven hundred pounds of report on the productiveness and glories of Dakota, but because of the disappearance of that wardrobe he will be forced to remain in Chicago a few hours. At present he is compelled to remain in his bathroom and converse with callers through the key-hole. Private information from the Grand Pacific office assures him that his small but essential laundry bundle will bo sent upstairs at the earliest possible moment. —• The Men Who Write. Boston Herald. Kate Field makes the sententious observation .that “the man who writes to live can never ’equal the man who lives to write.” We suspect this is true, as a rule. But William Shakspeare wrote to live, and did some tolerably enduring work, and the spur of necessity has produced some of the best literature of all languages. One thing is certain, if only those who “live to write” were to drive their pencils and quills, the newspapers would set a very meagre table. Grand Excursion to Niagara Falls.
