GRAND OrERA HOUSE— “LADY OP LYONS.” The splendid audience that greeted Miss Anderson on Monday night was duplicated last night, though it was made up more of people from out of town, thirty or more being in attendance from Pern, and as many, probably, from Muncie and other points. Bulwer’s familiar drama, “Lady of Lyons,” was the bill, with Miss Anderson as Pauline and Mr. ForbesRobertson as Claude Melnotte. Miss Anderson, though evidently suffering from a severe cold, wa3 in good voice, and easily understood ia all parts of the house. Her auditors were in quick sympathy with her, aud were instant in recognition of any particularly fine hit of acting, and she was repeatedly called before the curtain, and again after the drop had fallen on the last act. Her support, having greater opportunity than on the first night, appeared to better advantage, and it was apparent that it was well equipped for the work expected of it. Tho Claude Meluotte of Mr. Forbes-Robertson was a fair portrayal of an affectionate, generous, noble nature, though at no time rising to any great exhibition of strength. He impressed one as being a fine, manly fellow, lacking in the force needed to make him all that could be expected of him. Mr F. H. Macklin, who appeared as Leucippein “Pygmalion and Galatea,” was a much finer soldier, as Colonel Damns, last night. The Beauseantof Mr. Sidney Hayes was a fair piece of acting, and the Widow Melnotte, as represented by Mrs. Billington, was good. Mies Anuerson as Pauline was a disappointment, if measured, as the challenge is offered, by the highest standard. She is possessed of a magnificent voice naturally, and her enunciation is faultlessly clear at all times. The reading of her lines, however, became monotonous, and those who were present on the first night heard exactly the same intonation that was given her text as GalateA. The Paulino of Miss Anderson lacks the sprightliness in its lighter parts that makes it the ideal of what it should be. There is a heaviness about it from first to lost, as though the shadow of coming trouble and shame has already settled in her heart when the Prince woes her to tbs glorious palace and pleasure grounds that

his imagination pictures. The effect is bad, for the impression is carried to the andience that Panline is possessed of no traits that appeal to the admiration and love of those who know her. Bbe is won solely by reason of the bribe in the shape of promised wealth and social distinction as a princess. One tires of the unhappy woman almost from the outstart, and is won to transient admiration only in such passages as when she indignantly orders the treacherous Beauseant from her husband's house. But the Pauline of last night quickly dropped back into the lethareric, uninteresting woman that won little sym?athy, because apparently deserving little. ’auline was artistically copied, not reproduced. The costuming was all that could be desired, being harmonious and evidently intended for the play in which it was employed. To-night Miss Anderson will probably appear to better advantage than at any time, with the possible exception of her acting in “Comedy and Tragedy,” in which she has made the best impression since her appearance here daring this engagement The Indianapolis public will have an opportunity to compare her with Modjeska, who recently appeared in the role of Rosalind. “As You Like It” will close the engagement A crowded house for to-night has been assured from the hour the sale of seats began. The crowd in attendance will surpass those of the first two nights. NOTES. Will Carleton will give his entertainment this eveniug, at Plymouth Church, in the regular lecture course. Edwin Arderttond his company continue to do a fine business at the Museum with the new melo-drama, “Eagle’s Nest” The carnival at Meridian rink was attended by nearly twelve hundred people last night, and was in every way a very enjoyable affair. Mr. Charles H. Hoyt’s merry comedy, “A Tin Soldier,” which made such a decided success here earlier in the season as to justify a reengagement, will ne seen at the Grand to-mor-row night and during the remainder of the week, as presented by the original company. At English’s, Roland Reed again presented his new comedy, “Humbug,” to a good audience. Mr Reed is one of the cleverest young comedians in the profession, and has been universally recognized as the best Ko-Ko in “The Mikado” that has yet essayed the role. Incidental to the play he introduces a scene from the opera. MINNESOTA AND INDIANA WHEATS. The Result of an Analysis of the Qualities of Several Grades of the Cereal. Regarding the relative qualities of tho Milwaukee and the Indianapolis flours used by Dr. Fletcher at the Insane Asylum, it may be held that these flours are no better than the wheats from which they are made. The Milwaukee spring-wheat flour is donbtloss made from the Northwestern No. 1 hard spring wheat, so largely raised in Minnesota and Dakota. The wheats milled through the winter wheat section of the middle States, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio is a winter wheat of which about seven-eighths is tho Fulz wheat, and the remainder Long Mediterranean. In the summer of 1884 Dr. A. W. Brayton and John Hurty, of this city, analyzed a series of wheats from all parts of the world for tho Millstone, of this city. These wheats included the main wheats used in Europe, tho Egyptian, Baltic, Bombas' bard red, white Bombay, Australian, Russian, Persian, American hard spring (Milwaukee) and Indiana winter wheat. Their nutritive and bread making qualities were determined; the percentages of moisture, ash, oil, extract ives, cellulose, starch and gluten accurately stated in per cents. The Indiana saranle was a typical one, taken from the Board of Trade rooms, and was one of the handsomest wheats, as far as external appearance is concerned, that was examined. As to bread making qualities, the Bombay bard red stood first, and scarcely varied from Indiana winter wheat. The hard spring stood eighth in the list. The hard spring had 9.2 per cent, of gluten, 72 per cent of starch, 4.97 percent of cellulose, 8.92 per cent of “extractives” (sugar, dextrine and soluble albuminoids), 2 % oil, 1.86 ash and 11.81 water. Tbo Indiana wheat had 13.52 per cent gluten, 08.74 starch, 3.85 cellulose, 8.85 extractives, 2.92 oil and 13.31 water.. It will be seen that the hard spring wheat only excelled in starch among the nutritive properties, although it is a great wheat and the wealth of the Northwest The hard spring is a small-grained wheat, and rather inferior in external appearance. The object of the Millstone in having these analyses made was to get at the facts of the milling, nutritive and flour-making qualities of all the grades without prejudice or self interest, or a desire to boom any grade of wheat - The prize barrel of flour made at the first International Millers’Association, at Cincinnati in 18S0, was made from the long-berried Mediterranean wheat from sonthern Indiana, which stands above all wheats grown in the United States, and as a milling wheat is without a peer in the world. This is also the estimate put upon the Mediterranean by the editor of the Millstone at the present time—that the floor from this wheat, properly milled, is as good as any. Asa matter of fact, the people of the belt from middle Missouri to Ohio use the Fulz winter-wheat flour. This flour is inferior to the Houl springwheat flour, which, regardless of the results of chemical analysis, has such an even distribution of proximate principles in milling properties as to give it the lead in the great flour markets of the United States. It is stated that the Pillsbury Milling Company will establish a depot of their flour in this city and sell directly to consumers. In that case, the relative commercial and bread-making qualities of Houl spring and winter wheats will be put to a practical test in this locality. The Fulz wheat, of which we raise and eat most, is more prolific that the long berried Mediterranean, and so has been the leading winter wheat of this regiou. Dr. Fletcher’s conclusions probably only related to tho samples employed, and are not "in any sense final, as to relative value of Indiana and Minnesota wheat A. O. U. \V. The annual session of the Indiana Grand Lodge of the Ancient Order of United Workmen began yesterday at the lodge rooms, in the Bates Block, with an attendance of about seventy delegates. The grand officers were all present They are: C. C. Genung, G. W. M., Evansville; A. B. Satsich, G. R., Terre Haute; J. N. Taylor, G. F., Crawfordsville; James Spann,P. M. W., Evansville; W. P. Greene, G. G., Rensselaer; L. H. Carr, G. O.: W. S. Sears, G. G., Tho proceedings, yesterday, related to the preliminaries of organizing and to reading the reports of officers. These showed that the order is in a flourishing condition, and, during the last year, the membership has very largely increased in Indiana. The order is especially strong in the southwestern section of the State. The election of officers for the next year will take place today. and the session will probably not conclude before to-morrow evening. A Claim of False Pretenses. Wm. H. Beasley, a real estate and loan agent, was arrested, yesterday, and brought before Esquire Smock on the charge of obtaining money from Mrs. Mary E. Ferguson under false pretenses. She is a domestic, and in her affidavit alleges that Beasley became acquainted with her two years ago. The acquaintance ripened into a marriage engagement, after which, she says, Beasley Bought to borrow money from her. He represented that she could not lose it as he had abundant security in lowa land and building association shares. She at first refused but finally let him have money in small cams at differeutStimes until it amounted to SIOO. She has recently pressed him for settlement, but be gave her a promissory note for the amount. He admits the debt, but claims that he told her he did not have property at the time the loans were made, although he expected to get it He was sent to jail in default of SSOO bail. Beasley asked for ;% change of venue, and the Justice sent the case to the Major’s Court
THE RECORD OF THE COURTS. United States District Coart* Bon. W. A. Wopds. Judge. To-day—No special call. Supreme Court. Hon. W. E. Niblack. Chief-justice. The following decisions were rendered Feb. 16: 12854. Benjamin F. Heath vs. The State. Allen C. C. Affirmed. Niblack C. J.—Charles Smith July 9, 1885, procured a license for one year and opened a saloon. Becoming embarrassed he mortgaged his stock and fixtures. He was also indebted to his lessor, who declared the lease forfeited and brought suit to evict him. He conveyed the saloon building on the same day to one Evans. Evans, Smith and one Heath en tered into arrangements to reopen the saloon and continue business, to the effect that Heath was to act as Smith’s bar-keeper until July 1, 1886; that Smith authorized Heath to purchase good3 reasonably necessary to carry on the business, give receipts, sign Smith’s name to contracts as might be necessary to carry out the arrangement; that the fixtures and furniture should be sold to Heath, who was to act as bar-tender and procure necessary help: that Heath should faithfully carry out the contract, and save Smith from prosecution, keep an orderly house, etc.; that all bills should be paid out of the receipts; Heath to take ali profits for services and all goods bought by him on Smith’s account when paid for, except $lO per month to be paid to Evans as rent, Evans having leased this day to Smith. In a prosecution of Heath for selling without a license, held, upon the facts, that the license to Smith afforded him no protection. 12088. Wendell Hoffman vs. James 31. Butler. Perry C. C. Affirmed. Elliott, J.—Where it appears that no part of the original consideration was received by an indorser on a note, but that the entire consideration enured to the benefit of the joint makers, be ia only an accommotion indorser, and having paid the note, he may be subrogated to the rights of the original cred itor as against the joint makers of the note. 12153. Timothy B. Cox vs. Andrew Ratcliffe. Howard C. C. Affirmed. Mitchell, J.—(l.) Unless it affirmatively appears that facts specially found are irreconcilably in conflict with it, the general verdict will control. (2.) Where a special finding shows that before the plaintiff, in an action to recover possession of real estate, received deeds to the lands sold at sheriff's sale, it was agreed that if the money paid out by the plaintiff were refunded with interest, the land should be reconveyed to the defendant, it is not inconsistent with a general verdict for the defendant (3.) Where one holding a deed, absolute on its face, sues to recover possession of the land therein described, tne person in possession may defeat a recovery by proof that the deed was taken as security for money loaned. (4.) An agreement made during the year for redemption. by which the time for redemption is extended, is not void within the statutes of frauds, and the contract will be enforced, though no money was paid to secure such extension. 12404.

Quite a good deal of feeling between the architects, commissioners and sanitary experts having in charge the erection of the new insane hospitals has been engendered by the collapse of the boiler-house of the Evansville asylum. • The building was erected on a bed of quicksand, and the architect, Mr. Ketcham, says he informed the commissioners and Dr. Rogers that such was the fact, and urged that something be done to make the foundation solid. Quicksand can be made a substantial foundation if properly confined, and Mr. Ketctem states that he urged repeatedly that this be done, but the commissioners pooh-poohed the idea, and Dr. Rogers indignantly demanded that a resolution to this effect offered by the architect, be referred back. Dr. Rogers had about this time made a report that the foundation was all right, that there was little or no moisture about it and that the building rested upon pulverized clay and not quicksand. He recognized the safety to be obtained by following the architects plans, but thought it would be better, in view of the expense contemplated, to suspend all work on the boiler house and to wait for the developments of a positive necessity for their application. The necessity is now admitted to be sufficiently positive. The cost of the boiler-house thus far has been SIB,OOO, which is, of course, a total loss. County Physicians Appointed. The County Commissioners yesterday awarded to the following physicians the pauper practice of the various townships, at the rates given: Per annum. Center, southwest, Dr. P. J.

In the Criminal Court, yesterday, several arraignments were heard on indictments returned
by the last grand jary. They were all, except that of Charles Mitchell, for the murder of Simon Cox, for minor offenses. Charles White pleaded guilty to stealing a buffalo robe, and was sent to the work-house for ninety days. TEE Y. M. C. A. BUILDING. The Fund Started with the Contribution of $1 from a Little Sunday-School Girl. The trustees and building committee of tbe Y. M. C. Association met last night, with a large attendance, and the work of sta**“’“g the subscription was commenced. At least nty soliciting committees were appointed to ass the principal business streets of the city, who will begin their tour this morning, and other committees will be named from day to day, so as to insure a thorough and perfect canvass of the entire city. The terras of the proposed subscription are that all subscriptions will be binding when subscriptions amounting to the sum of $25,000 shall have been secured, and payable as follows: One third within thirty days after said subscriptions aggregating $25,000 shall have been secured; tbe remaining two-thirds in installments withing two years thereafter, for which deferred payments subscribers will execute their notes, severally, payable without interest. Subscriptions or money may be sent to either of the committee or to Wilson Morrow, treasurer of trustees, 29 Thorpe Block, or to O. H. Palmer, general secretary, 35 North Illinois street The first subscription recorded was that of a little girl, a member of the infant-class of the Fourth Presbyterian Sunday-school. The pastor of that church, Mr. McNutt, is so much interested in the project that he has taken a collection for two Sundays in nis school, with the result of raising more than ten dollars for the fund. On Sunday before last when making the statement to the school a little girl came slyly up to the platform BDd banded the pastor a note. On the fly leaf was written: * “From a little girl who wants all the boys to be Daniel.” Upon opening the note there was found a one dollar bill. Properly euough this dollar is given tbe place of honor at the head of the procession. “And a little child shall lead them.” Subscriptions were taken among the members of the committee present to the amount of $2,120. It was determined to make subscriptions public when the amount reaches $5,000. Subscriptions in any amount are desired, and from all classes of people. Every one will be pubiicy acknowledged through tbe public prints. If there is any one, either in the city or elsewhere, who desires to send a contribution to this pufpose, through the medium of the Journal, it will take pleasure in receiving it, acknowledging it, and forwarding it to the proper persons. Atlanta raised $125,000 in not more than two weeks’ time. Indianapolis ought,to contribute $35,000 within a few days. Real Estate Transfers.
