Secretary Metcalf, of the State Board of Health, returned from Clinton county yesterday, where the members of the board hf.ve been looking after the pleuro-pneumonia. The farmers throughout that section of the State, he reports, are badly frightened over the existence of the disease, and nothing the board can do seems to pacify them. All the imported cattle were killed, except nineteen head belonging to a.Mr. Snider, who refused to kill his. The farmers killed the cattle themselves, on the advice of the boerd, and will petition the coming Legislature for relief from their loss. The county of Clinton was quarantined for ninety days, and orders were left to see that the quarantine was rigidly enforced. Governor Gray yesterday telegraphed the Commissioner of Agriculture at Washington to send immediately a competent veterinary surgeon to treat the disease. There are four cases of the disease in Jasper county, but the State Board has no fear of its spreading there, as the faims have been under quarantine for several days. The cattle, Secretary Metcalf says, did not come directly from Ohio to this State, as has been reported, but were shipped from Sherman, N. Y., to Steiner Brothers, of Bluff ton, 0., where they were not unloaded, but were sent on into this State and Illinois. Trying to Recover Ronds. Albert Galvin yesterday filed a comDhint in replevin against his daughter, Elizabeth Britlon. to recover $1,300 in United States G per rents. Mrs. Britton told the deputy sheriff, r/hen he served the writ, that she did not have the bonds, and knew nothing as to their whereabouts. Thk best patterns of folding-beds at Wm. L. Elder's.

TWO BRILLIANT SOCIEIY EVENTS. The Wolkln-Mansur and the Jameson-Tark-ington Weddings Last Evening. The marriage of Miss Cecelia Mansur, only daughter of Mrs. A. B. Mansur, to Mr. Clarence Wnlsin, of the firm of D. H. Baldwin & Cos., was solemnized last evening, at 7 o’clock, at Christ I*. E. Church, at the corner of the Circle and Meridian street, Rev. E. A. Bradley, pastor of the church, performing the ceremony. Mr. Jos. B. Mansur, a brother, gave the bride away. The church was tastefully doeorated for the occasion with plants and flowers. At tho hour for the ceremony, the chimes were rune by Mr. Richard Talbot. The bridal party was preceded up the aisle by two little maids of honor, Misses Lidee and Sadie Brown, cousins of the bride, from Philadelphia. They wore dainty costumes of white lace, and carried baskets of roses. Mr. Lucien Wulein, of Cincinnati, brother of the groom, was best man. The bride's dress was of heavy white satin, trimmed with pearls and oranee blossoms, and her veil was held in place by the same kin# of flowers. The bridal bouquet was of white Niphetos roses. Mr. R. R. Newland presided at the organ. Mr. Gates, Mr. Lewis and Mr. Thorn, of Cincinnati, and Mr. W. A. Van Buren, of this city, acted as ushers. Following the service at the church, a reception was given at the family residence, No. 10 East Vermont street, from 8 till 10 o’clock, to which but few invitations were issued. The house was redolent with the perfume of leautiful flowers placed in profusion in the rooms. Here Mr. and Mrs. Wulsin received their congratulations. Among tho guests from away were Mrs. and Miss Brown, mother and sister of Mrs. Mansur; Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Brown and family, Mrs. Gerker and family, Mrs. Painter and son, Miss Cram, Miss Rowland, and Mr. Masson, of Philadelphia; Mr. and Mrs. Wulsin, parents of the groom; Miss Wulsin, Miss Lillie Wulsin, sisters, and Mr. Lncien Wulsin, brother of the groom; Mr. and Mrs. D. H. Baldwin, Mrs. Johnston and Miss Johnston. Miss Goahorn, Miss Goodhue, Messrs. R. J. Lewis, Frank Goodhue, W. H. Thorn, John Gates, A. Klein, Geo. B. Ellard and John Gibson, of Cincinnati; Mr. Charles Decker and C. E. Wolff, Atf New York. The other guests numbered the leading society people of this city. The costumes worn were rich in the extreme, and the assemblage was notable for its brilliancy and beauty. The bride and groom are among the most prominent, young people of the city. The presents to both have never been exceeded in this city for eleeance and numbers. Mr. and Mrs. Wulsin left last night for a trip of two or three weeks, and upon their return will go to housekeeping ou North Meridian street, near Sixth. THE JAMESON-TARKINGTON WEDDING. One of the handsomest and most elaborate church weddings that ever occurred in this city was that, last night, at the First Presbyterian Church, of Miss Mary Booth, better known as Hautie Tarkineton, daughter of Judge and Mrs. John F. Tarkington, to Mr. Ovid Butler Jameson, a young lawyer of this city, and son of Dr. P. H. Jameson. Rev. M. L. Haines performed the ceremony, using part of the Episcopal rite, and the bride and groom exchanged] rings. The father gave his daughter unto her husband. The benediction was pronounced by Rev. Mr. Tarkihgton, of Greensburg, grandfather of the bride. Tho bride’s maids were Miss Annie Warren, of Terre Haute; Miss Carrie Hendricks, Miss Lizzie Herod and Miss Kate Gresham, of this city; Miss Maud Lilienthal, of New York, Miss Alice Warren, of Terre Haute, and Miss Jessie Clippinger, of Connersville. They wore handsome costumes of white surah, cut decolette, trimmed with pearls, and carried large bouquets of roses or chrysanthemums. The groomsmen were Mr. Horace Speed, Mr. Nathan Morris, Mr. Spencer Ball, of Terre Haute; Mr. Rush Denig. of Chicago; Mr. George T. Porter, Mr. Louis Howland and Mr. John Holcombe. The young ladies (two and two) preceded the bride, who leaned on the arm of her father. The ushers were Mr. Oliver T. Morton, Mr. Frank McKee, Mr. Harry Thompson. of Terre Haute, and Mr. Ben Nichols. The maids of honor, whom the ushers escorted, were Miss Anna Porter, Miss Florence Malott, Miss Catharine Noble and Miss Jen Die Roacbe, who also wore like costumes with the bridesmaids. The bridal dress was of rich cream white satin, trimmed with pearls and pearl ornaments, along tulle veil enveloped her whole figure and she carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley. From out Ade the city the guests were Mrs. Tarkington, of Greensburg, now eightv-seven years of age, grandmother of the bride, exSenator Newton Booth, of California, an unhle; Mrs. S. P. Lilienthal, of New York; Mr. Lyman Booth and Mr. Truman Booth, of Illinois; Mr. and Mrs. George H. West, of Lafayette; Mr. and Mrs. Orville Peckham, of Chicago; Mr. and Mrs. Will Cumback and Mrs. Alexander, of Greensburg; Mr. and Mrs. Anson Dodge, of New York. After the ceremony and before the reception, the newly-made husband wife weut to see Mr. Jameson’s mother, who is confined to her home. Several hundred guests assembled at the family residence, at the corner of Pennsylvania and Second streets, to tender their congratulation, from 8 till 11 o'clock. The house was beautifully adorned. From the chandelier to each corner of the room were festoons of smilax. The mantels were banked with chrysanthemums and roses, and Mr. and Mrs. Jameson stood under a large four-leaved clover of smilax to receive their friends. The wedding tour will be short, Mrs. Jameson wishing to visit with her uncle before his return to California. Upon their return they will reside with Mr. and Mrs. Tarkington. The marriage mark the day in Indianapolis, the city seldom witnessing two such elegant weddings in one day, the costumes being as handsome and elaborate as any ever worn here. All parties are well known and popular.

Complaint in foreclosure was yesterday filed by John J. Cooper agairst Roswell S. Hill and wife; Cas. Byfield, trustee; the City of Indianapolis, and James T. EaglesfieM. The mortgage, dated Aug. 4. 1885, it is alleged, rests ou a one year note given by Hill to Cooper Nov. 10, 1884, for SB,OOO. Bui, the complaint specifies another transaction Jan. 22, ISBG, when Hill and James T. Eazlesfteld joiutly gave a one-day note to Cooper for $1,104.

liens claimed by the other defendants. He states that the mortgaged real estate is not sufficient to meet his demnand, which amounts to SII,OOO. and be therefore asks for the appointment of a receiver to take charge of the property. MISSIONARY WORK IN MADAGASCAR. Mrs. Street’s Interesting Story of the Reforms Brought About by Christians. The Young People’s Foreign Missionary Society, ‘ The Willing Workers,” of the Friend’s Church, last evening gave an entertainment at the church. Among the numbers, that of Master Evans, who rendered a short reading, composed for the occasion, and “The Missionary Hymn,” by a quartette, were specially interesting. Mrs Street, who has been a missionary to Madagascar since 1860, spoke quite interestingly for gome time. Shortly after she and her busband arrived there the last heathen queen of that country was buried. Her coffin was very massive and heavy, being made of 22,222 silver dollars. They were welded together in bars of SSO each, and the coffin constructed at the tomb of the bars. All the queen’s ornaments and dresses, among which were fifty of silk, were buriod with her. Her cousin was soon after crowned queen, and at the coronation a Bible was used instead of the idols, as before that time. In her speech the queen explained her religion, and told her people they might embrace it or worship idols, just as they chose, but soon afterward the country was declared Christian, and fetich worship was given up. The children of that country, unlike some little Americans, thought it a grand thing to attend the mission schools. They studied hard, learned rapidly, and some of them came from long distances in the country. Missionaries going to that country learn the language in about three months well enough to preach. Mrs. Street had some beautiful presents in cloth, woven by the natives, besides several idols, charms and amulets of the heathen worship, among other things a palanquin, the manner of using being practically illustrated by boys dressed as native carriers. The church was crowded, and the Willing Workers will have quite a sum to add to that already in the treasury. Who Shall Seat the Statesmen? Miss Lizzie Callis, State Librarian, has received applications from nearly all the newlyelected members of the Legislature for desirable seats in the legislative halls, and they all want “the very best seats.” As yet, however, she has been unable to locate them, as she has been furnished with no diagram of the halls. She yesterday consulted the State-house commissioners about the matter, and they informed her that they considered it their duty to seat the members themselves, and would assign the seats by lot. after the plan followed in seating members of Congress. The law, Miss Callis claims, specifically provides that the assignment of seats shall be made by the State Librarian, and she will not consent to any such an arrangement as the commissioners propose. As soon as she iB provided with a diagram she proposes to seat the members. m Superintendent Holcombe’s Annual Report. Prof. J. W. Holcombe, Superintendent of Public Instruction, has received the proof sheets of his annual report, which will be issued in a few weeks. It will be a book of several hundred pages, and will make a very valuable volume for the use of teachers and educators in general. The school system of the State is very fully explained. The tuition revenue of the State is given as $3,426,219.35, the special revenue, sl,543,054.36, making the total resources of the 5ch0015.54,969,873.36. Avery complete and comprehensive historical review of education in Indiana, prepared by H. M. Skinner, B. C. Hobbs and Mary Humphreys, is given, aiAUtho proceedings of the State Educational Association are publisher in full. The advantages of the State institutions of higher education are set forth at length, and considerable space is devoted to tho special schools of the State.

Ex-Prisoners of War. The old soldiers of the Union army who suffered in rebel prisons met again last night to perfect their organization. The roll of membership was largely increased by those who attended for the first time. Officers were chosen as follows: President, E. H. Williams; vice-president. J. O. Harding; secretary-treasurer, John Hamilton; executive board, Col. I. N. Walker. Capt. John M. Gordon and Capt. Jacob F. Schoil. An address is to be sent to all federal soldiers in Marion county who were prisoners of war, and their address is requested by the secretary, together with the date and places of capture and imprisonment, and the length of time they were held. The association will meet at the call of the president. i Reception to Lieblcneclit. Wilhelm Liebknecht will speak next Friday evening at Meennerchor Hall. He is a member of the German Parliament, and leader of the Social Democratic faction, consisting of about thirty members. At 7 o’clock that evening the Socialistic Singing Society and the band of the Social Turnvei'ein will serenade him at the Grand Hotel, when committees of the Socialistic sections, the Social Turnverein and Furniture workers Union No. 13 will welcome him. They will then escort him to Msennercbor Hall. A social entertainment will take place at the hall of the German-English school, No. 120 East M .ryland street, after the meeting. Lecture of General Wallace. The Indianapolis Lecture Course at Plymouth Church for the winter of 1886 opened last nieht with Gen. Lew Wallac 3 lecture on “Turkey and the Turks,” to a good audience. The General’s delivery is greatly improved. Since his debut as a lecturer here he has acquired the lecture manner and is more measured in his delivery. The lecture is full of instruction, beautiful in its word pictures, and throws altogether a new light on a nation once the greatest on earth. His description of the scenery of the Bosphorus, journeying from the Black sea to Constantinople, is classic in its elegance. Entries of the Indiana Fair. Secretary Heron, of the State Board of Agriculture, has prepared a comparative table of the entries of nearly all the State fairs in the United States, which shows that the number at the Indiana fair was greater than that of any in the central portion of the Uuited States, and that but one or two in the whole country numbered more. The number of entries in the different departments were as follows: Cattle, 569; horses, 578; sheep, 262; hoes, 510; poultry, 495; dogs, 37; farm products, 799; horticultural department, 250; ladies’department, 1,267, and children’s department, 182. Will Not Re Gilded. It is altogether probable that the State-house dome will not be gilded, for several reasons. od6 is the great expenso it will incur, and another is that the gilding will not hold its color here, where so much soft coal is burned. In Eastern cities where domes have been gilded, soft coal is not burned. The belief prevails about the State offices that the dome, if gilded, will be black withiu a year from the coal smoko

from the furnace in the north end of the building. To brighten it up once or twice a year would be very disagreeable and expensive work. Litigation Over a Stolen Horse. Pressly Jennings brought suit yesterday to recover $250 from Levi and Richard George, the claim resulting from the purchase of a horse from the defendants. Jennings states that he paid them, last March, $125 for the animal, but one day in October they, in company with a man named Steward, of Ripley county, came to him saying the horse had been stolen from Steward. If he would give up the animal without litigation they would return his money. Jennings alleges this has not been done, and that the valuation of the horse was $250. The Governor’s Thanksgiving Proclamation. Governor Gray yesterday issued his annual Thanksgiving proclamation, designating Thursday, the 25th inst., as the day on which the people will return thanks for the manifold blessings they have been permitted to enioy the past year.
