THE APIARISTS’ MEETING. Officers of the Association Elected—The State i>"*rd of Agriculture Criticised. A committee vrt? appointed, at the morning session of the State Bee-keepers’ Association, yesterday. to prepare a list of premiums, which the State Board of Agriculture will be asked to award on exhibits of honey at the next State fair. There was much complaint regarding the State Board's neglect of apiculture. At the last Slate fair only SSO in premiums was offered, while at the Boone county fair the premium awards amounted to $350. If more encouragement was offered, the exhibits at the State fair, it was claimed, would be more creditable. The committee appointed to prepare a list of pre miuras consisted of Messrs. Knowlton, Lane and Cox. The election of officers for the next year, which was a special order of the morning session, resulted as follows: President —I, N. Cotton. Vice president—E. J. Howland. Secretary—P. L. Dougherty. Treasurer—Mrs. E. Stout A paper on “When and How to Extract Honey,” was read by T. L. Bull. He left the honey in the hives last season, he said, until the elose of the white honey harvest, and the result was a product of excellent quality. He thought it should be allowed to remain in the hives until it was all sealed over or ripe. However, for manufacturing purposes such a fine flavor is not required. He thought if honey of a good quality could be extracted as rapidly as it was brought in by the bees and ripened by the solar heat, apiarists would have taken a step in advance. “Soring Management of Bees” was the subject of a paper read by M. G. Reynolds, of Williamsburg. He said that the colonies should be increased. to accomplish which the queens must be prolific, and that the swarms must be wintered successfully. A paper on “Winter Protection” was read by Miss Eva Sholl. In the afternoon a committee, with I. N. Cotton as president, was appointed to make preparations for the meeting of the national society, in this city, next winter. Governor Gray was present for a few moments, and delivered a brief address. The association adjourned early in the afternoon. _ Adulterated Honey. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: In your valuable paper of to-day I notice, under the heading of “Indiana Bee-keepers,” a very erroneous statement, the direct reverse from that which has been said. The tendency of your article would be injurious to bee-keepers and an insalt to me as a dealer in pure honey. I hope you will correct the statement You make me say that it is useless to try to disguise the fact that honey is adulterated, when I did say, in substance and in fact this: There Is no use in denying the fact that there is adulterated honey on the market, and it is this infernal adulteration which injures our business more than anything else. It swells the so-called stock of honey on the market and brings down the prices of onr pure honey. Adulteration is profitable to the adulterator, as the proportion of glucose to honey has often been found as 5 to 1 in the adulterated article. It should be the business of every bee-keeper to fight and expose adulteration wherever met An injustice is often done to bee keepers by scientists, in not distinguishing in their analysis the quality of grape-sugar found in honey from the grape-sugar manufactured of corn-starch, and which is made for the pnrpoee of adulteration, as is known to every business man.

E. Niblack, Chief-justice. The following decisions were rendered Jan. 21: 12344. Walter W. Wert" vs. I. &V. Railroad Company. Morgan C. C. Affirmed. Elliott J.—An owner of property who abandons his animal cannot recover, although it entered upon the track of a railroad and was killed at a place where the company failed to protect as required by statute. But there must be something more than contributory negligence to defeat his recovery—a voluntary abandonment or an intentional exposure of it to danger. So, where an ow-jer of a horse lent him and the borrower, becoming intoxicated, allowed the animal to enter upon the track at a place required to be protected, the owner is not entitled to recover for injuries to the horse, the borrower standing to the the railroad company as the owner. 12146. Indianapolis & Cumberland Gravelroad Company vs. State ex rel. Joseph F. Flack, commissioner. Marion C* C. Affirmed. Mitchell, J.—(l.) The statutes concerning drainage provide notice which applies to owners of easements as well as to owners of any other interest. (2.) As notice is provided it will be presumed by the Supreme Court, against a collateral attack, that proper notice was given. (3.) The conduct of a drainage commissioner in failing to carry out the drainage work as ordered is no defense to a suit on an assessment. (4.) Where an assessment is made and confirmed against an easement or right of way of a corporation, as provided by statute, the lien which follows such an assessment cannot be defeated by a collateral attack on the proceeding which imposed it (5.) The property of a gravel road in its roadbed is subject to sale in pursuance of a decree enforcing a statutory lien against it. 12189. Christian Nietert vs. August C. Trentman. Allen C. C.

THE BCKVEYOBS' ASSOCIATION. Delegates Appointed to Other State Conventions—The Session Concluded. The State Association of Surveyors and Engineers concluded its session yesterday. After providing for a committee on national public works, consisting of R. R. Spencer, T. A. Hardman, J. P. Leslie and James D. Sanders, with W. A. Osmer as chairman, mi sc dlaneous business was taken up. Cravens Sm .h was appointed a delegate to the Michigan con rention, R. R. Spencer to that of the Ohio sur eyors, and J. D. Sanders to the Illinois conven on. Governor Gray appeared at the meeting, a J, after speaking to the members on the res, onsibilities and usefulness of their profession, was introduced to each. In ’the afternoon, Frank Knight, of Wabash, read a paper on “Drainage." Mr. Shreve, of Ohio, continued the discussion of the same topic, and was followed by W. B. Albright, of Hartford City, who spoke about ditching machines. F. Hodgman, of Climax, Mich., called attention to the surveyors’ manual prepared under the auspices of the organized surveyors of his State. It proposed to give the profession a more practical knowledge than that offered by text-books, which dealt with the arithmetical feature of surveying. The association adjourned to meet here this time next year. A Wife's Charges of Cruelty. Angelina Stinson married two years ago, when she was but fifteen years of age. Her husband, John, was fifty-two. Yesterday she filed a divorce complaint, in which she details incidents of excessive cruelty. She charges John with the ordinary run of abuses, and then sets out that he has left her at times on the verge of starvation. Besides compelling her to beg from door to door he has required her to sleep on boards without covering. He also refused to let her have a fire. She supplements this allegation of cruelty by saying he sent her out to work when she was hardly able to walk on account of sickness. Cruelty, cold and starvation, she thinks, entitle her to a divorce. A Fatal Fall. Louis Fisher, thirty years of age, and unmarried, received fatal injuries yesterday, in the fracture of his skull, by falling from a lumber pile in the Central Chair Company’s yards. He was taken to his boarding-house, at the corner of Mississippi and South streets. An Alleged Incivility and Outrage. To tbe Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: I would like to know why it is that a respectable and well-dressed colored lady cannot walk the streets of this city without being Insulted or looked through and through, iu going half a square, by a set of white dudes, and also by a class claiming to be gentlemej. It is time for this sort of low-down meanness to he stopped. Jan. 20. A Colored Citizen. DAILY WEATHER BULLETIN. Indications.

Mayor Bowmar.’a Missing Will. East St. Louis, 111., Jan. 21.—Since tbe assassination of Mayor Bowman many sensational rumors have been in circulation concerning his will. He had often said that his will was made, but 6ince his death his selatives have not produced it. As Mr. Bowman was very wealthy, public curiosity was greatly interested in the contents of the will. A sensation has now been created by the filing of a petition in tbe Probate Court of St Clair count y by Miss Minnie S. Bowman, a nun in a Catholic convent at Minneapolis, asking that her brother, Frank B. Bowman, and her step-mother, the young widow of the late mayor, appear in court and show cause why they should not be attached for failing to produce the will. Miss Bowman, in her petition, says that she has good reasons to believe a will was left by her father, and if there was, she wants it executed. She claims not to Enow tbe contents of the will which her father made, but from the

mannnor in which she reiterates throughout the petition that she is morally certain that he left a will, one cannot help drawing the inference that she knows nnre than is stated in the petition. In conformity with the prayer of the petition, citations werj issued against Frank 3. Bowman and his step mother, Mrs. John B. Bowman, made returnable Feb. 1, at which time the matter will be heard by the court. Miss Bowman, it is understood, will not leave the convent, but will be represented by her attorney. THE POLITICAL PHARISEES. The Moral Aristocracy Who Have Lost Faith in Popular Government. “Gath’s” New York Letter. Among the results of too much success is the existence, especially in the East, of a considerable Pharisee element, which no longer believes in popular government The men who are laboring toward this end supply President Cleveland with his favorite reading. The publisher of the New York Evening Post said to me, about 1873, that he did not believe the American people were fit for self-government, and in those words. I suppose that he is too well settled in his views to deny the statement: On that line he has ever since proceeded, and a popular man with the multitude of the political laborers he instinctively dislikes. But these reformers are all on the make; I hardly ever saw one of them who was not striving to get his million of dollars. Probably if they will examine their minds they will find that it is this million that has changed thoir politics. Possessions always make a man timid. You will remember in the Scriptures there was a rich man who came to the chief of the ratable, the man who preached in the fields and had not where to lay his head, who consorted with the publicans, who were the internal revenue men of that day, and with the sinners who went to the massmeetings, ana this rich man said: “Master, what shall Ido to inherit the life you preach?” “Go and sell all that you have and give it to the poor, and come and follow me,” was the reply. He did not get this answer: “Don't vote for any man who is popular; keep yourself away from the dear public, hold yourself high, and call yourself the better element.” The rich man had to go off only because he had great possessions. There is no better test of the integrity of a man’s patriotism than his respect for the institutions of his fathers long after they have been laid away in the grave. Now and then I find the descendants of Borne of the old revolutionary men aping the moral aristocracy and starting anew the govermont of the high priests, scribes and Pharisees. In almost all these cases you can find that the seed has gone out of them, and some grabbing family has intermarried there. Old John Adams, for example, had for a wife a preacher’s daughter, Abigail Smith, who was full of sense, and the smartest woman who ever inhabited the White House. Her son, therefore, though he got a good deal of crankiness out of his father’s nature, threw himself, toward the end of his life, gallantly into the eupport of popular rights. The earlier portion of his life, when he wrote his old diary and impugned everybody’s motives, was modeled in Europe, where he had been minister, college student, etc. There was not much of his life worth noting until he went back to Congress after he had left the presidency, a failure. But he had a son who married a rich woman in Boston, and that son had a crop of other sons who married money-bags and corner lots, and now whenever there is anything doomed to be in the minority you will find an Adams tied to it. It is said from this family emanated the tirade published in England called “Democracy.” Now, if such was the case, the family was only exposing its own matters. For generations the Adamses who produced John Adams had been brewers of cheap ale and grubbers of bad ground at Quincy, and they scraped together just money enough to send John Adams to Harvard, which was already infested with the old harsh leaven of the Winthrops and Endicotts, and the boys there, John Adams says, were numbered, not by their talents, bnt by the position of their fathers in the world. Charles Francis Adams says what is still true to a considerable extent of Harvard University, that it makes a man a prig if he has got it in him. I quote: “In the ordinary intercourse of society, as it existed at that time in New England, the effect of a college education was to introduce a youth of the condition of John Adams into a different class of familiar acquaintance from that of his fathers. The distinction of ranks was observed with such punctilious nicety that in the arrangement of the members of every class precedence was assigned to every individual according to the dignity of his birth or to the rank of his parents. John Adams was thus placed the fourteenth in a class of twenty-four, a station for which he was probably Indebted rather to the standing of his maternal family than that of his father. This custom continued until the class which entered in 1769. and was graduated in 1773, when the substitution of the alphabetical order in the names and places of the members of each class may be considered as a pregnaut indication of the republican principles which were rising to an ascendency over those which had prevailed during the colonial state of the country.” This is true, and the mugwumps are still the colonists. This is seen by their affecting colonial styles in their houses, endeavoring to secure ont-ioor knockers and old andirons, and imagining themselves back in the condition off John Milton and John Winthrop. Raided liy-Mexican Plunderers. New York, Jan. 21. —A special from San Antonio, Tex., says: “Intelligence reached this city, last evening, from Hidalgo county, bordering on the Rio Grande, and lying in the extreme southwestern portion of the State, that a band consisting of eight robbers crossed over from Mexico a few days ago and raided the Palmos ranch, in that county. The raid was made in open day. Carlos Schunaor, the proprietor, and his clerk, made a stout resistance, but both were shot down. Schunaor was fatally wounded, and will die, and his clerk lies in a very critical condition, with small hopes of recovery. Having disposed of tho occupants of the ranch and store, the thieves leisurely proceeded to despoil the premises, and carried away money and valuables amounting to $2,800, besides a number of horses. None of the nerpetrators have been apprehended. It is believed that they are a portion of an organized band of outlaws under the leadership of the notorious Le Pelou, who is one of tho most daring and bloodthirsty chiefs of the lower Rio Grande, the deeds of whose lawless band of desperadoes have often struck terror to the citizens residing on either side of the river, and this recent raid by them has caused widespread consternation in Hidalgo county, which is principally occupied by ranchers, whose residences are so remote from each other that they cannot successfully combine and resist the attacks of their enemy, and whose only protection lies in the ranger service of the State, which has been reduced so ns to render it practically useless as a constabu,ary force.” The Cornelison Case. Louisville, Ky., Jan. 21.— 1n the Court of Appeals, to-day, at Frankfort, the case of J. J. Cornelison, the lawyer who cowhided Judge Richard Reed, of the Superior Court, over a year ago, causing Reed to commit suicide at Mount Sterling, was argued to-day. Cornelison was sentenced to three years’ imprisonment and fined heavily by the Circuit Court This decision was reversed by the Superior Court, that tribunal deciding that imprisonment could not be imposed for assault and battery.

Respectable Druggists Never deceive the public, but beware of the Cheap John druggists who offer you a plaster called “Capsicum,” “Capsi' in.” “Capucin” or "Capsicine,” and tell you it is substantially the same as the genuine Benson’s Capcine Plaster, or even belter. They ask less for the imitation, for it costs less; but as a remedial agent it is absolutely worthless. The reputation of Benson’s as tbe only plaster possessing actual and high curative qualities is the result of many year*’ experiment and honorable dealings on the part of the proprietors: and 5,000 physicians, pharmacists and druggists indorse it as the best ever made. Protect yourself against docepi ion by buying of reputable dealers only, and avoid mistakes by personal examination. The genuine has the “Three Seals” trade mark, and in the center is eat the word “Caprine.”
