INCIDENTS OF LOCAL LIFE.

Things That Are Heard and Seen in the Wanderiogs of a Vigilant Journal Reporter, j "A very sad insanity case recently came under my notice," said a prominent attorney to a Journal reporter yesterday. The victim was a J yoonjj man of tplendid habits. A year ago he was married. He was working on a small salary, but had calculated that it would he sufficient to support himself and a wife. The woman he married had very high notions of livine, and he soon saw that on bis salary he could not keep her in money. She spent all he made, and began to run him deeply in debt The situation became so desperate that he brooded over his affairs until he lost bis mind. Recently he was taken to the asylum, and left his wife and one child without any means of support. How much tetter it would have been for his wife to have exercised some degree of economy." A Journal reporter was comiog down Delaware street, last night, when a bevy of young ladies coming out of Roberts Park Church met another crowd. "You ought to have been to prayer-meeting," chorused the out-comers. "WhyP "Oh, we had hunks of fun a regular picnic All the old fellows there prayed, and we were on the bark seat with a lot of young fellows, who Kept ns laughing all the time." The most trying point in tLe life of An amateur criminal is when he has to don a striped suit for the first time. There are but few men sentenced to the work-house for the first time who do not object vigorously to exchanging their customary dress for the prison garb. "Sorne.of them," said Superintendent Boone to a reporter, "have to be dressed by main force. There are others who do not realize that they are really criminals until the striped, suit is brought out, and some of the more sentimental ones lose all their courage and bravado." The basement of the court-house is a favorite gathering place for old soldiers, who meet to discuss their war experiences, and every day there is a score or more of them there, and the same old stories are told and retold. The gathering represents the movements of every division of the armies during the war, and by putting the experiences that are related together, a very reliable war history could be compiled. There is much indignation among the colored people of Bucktown because the color line has been drawn in the Woodworth meetincs. The meetings are now being held in a colored church, and for a time they were the roost prominent workers. The other night, so the colored popu lation claims, when one of the colored gentle men who had been furnishing much of the cata leptic amusement, appeared at the door he was directed by the janitor to go to the gallery. Others who came were served likewise, and there are rumors of an uprising in Bucktown agast the trance evangelist ''Did you know that there are quite a number of people inlhe city who believe the world is to come to an end durins the year 1887?" asked a citizen vesterdav. "It is a fact, and I think they are sincere in their belief. But few people know how many of these Second Adventists there are in the" world. Every city, and nearly every town, has a few of such believers. I have ever known thi time when there were not pacirifl to be, found with such foolish nctisns. They have set scores of dates for it collapse, and do not seem to bo diaap- j pointed or mshRf.rtened when their expectations j are not realizri. In my lifo I know of several occasion whftn 'twe people worked up a great exciteme- t in- U . ,r predictions, and many wellmeniiir.fc ;urBo3 mude preparations to meet the "ae i o,-..' ho ier, are not so easily duped as tney were a Quarter or a half eenturv aeo. and the fanatics now have little success in influencing the masses of the people with their predictions." There is a fortune-teller up in Bucktown that is said to be amassing wealth by practicing her profession. She is a colored woman, and occu pies a dingy, smoke-colored little hut on an alley. alone. She came here from Louisville a conple of years ago, and her fame has spread from her own race to whites of respectability. Her visit ors are mostly young people, and on frequent occasions young ladies of highly-respected fami lies have been seen gliding into her humble abode to learn what the futnre has in store for them. AMUSEMENTS. GRAND "HELD BT THE ENEMY." ' It is a genuine pleasure to commend so excel lent a play as "Held by the Enemy," which re ceived its first presentation in this city at the Grand last night It is the work of Mr. W. H. Gillette, who is entitled to the credit of having written a play purely American in story and treatment, and of such remarkable interest as to engage the almost breathless attention of an audience for nearly three hours. It opens and closes with comedy, but the three intermediate acts, in which the absorbing story is developed, are models of dramatic strength and effective ness. The scene is laid in a Southern city durine the war, and throughout the play the military features and incidents of that great conflict are of such a character as to appeal most strongly to one's patriotism and en thusiasm. The story is one that has originality and interest, and it is told most effectively, and with those artful touches and suggestions which show the work of a skillful dramatist Last night the curtain was rung up at the close of ev ery act in response to the most enthusiastic ap plause, and the impression created by the per formance was indicated, not only by these demonstrations, but by the almost painfully close attention that was paid to it from beginning to end. Appropriate scenic surroundines and accessories that added materially to the picturesqueness of the stage scenes were features of the production. Every partln the play has evidently been allotted to some person wno was especially selected for it, for the east is one or uniform and individual excellence. Miss Louise Dillon's well-known cleverness was exceuenuy displayed in an ingenue part, her Southern dialect beine a marvel of grace and accuracy. Miss Katheryn Kidder, a statuesque actress of fine powers of expression, made an excellent impression, upon her first appearance in this city, if memory be not at fault, in the trying role of Rachel Mc ureery. jut. George it. rarKs, a manly, forcible actor, as Colonel Prescott; Mr. Charles W. Stokes, as General Stambere. Mr. Kellard as Lieutenant Hayne, Mrs. t arron, mat aamirame actress, and U L. Dickson, a good light comedian, all made, hits, and no part was siightea or carelessly presented. "Held by the Enemy" is decidedly the best play of recent production here, and is well mounted and acted, if there is an appreciation of thorough dramatic excellence here it will draw large audiences at the temaining performances to-night, to-morrow afternoon and to-morrow night NOTES, Mr. Jules S. Murry is in the city arranging for the appearance of the Fleming & llazleton com pany in the elaborate spectacular production, "Around the World in Eighty Davs," at En glish's the first part of next week. A notable dramatic engagement next week will be that of Miss Genevieve Ward and Mr. W. H. Vernon at English s in producing "Forget Me isof and the "Queens Favorite." Those who have seen Miss Ward's Stephanie in the first named play, will remember it as one of the most wonderful of recent impersonations. Mr. Vernon, who is starring jointly, with her, is an English actor or very nne reputation. A Child liurued to Death. Wednesday evening the wife of Samuel Fish er, residing just beyond Fall creek, on the Mich igan road, left her three year-old daughter, Jane, in a room alone for a few minutes. When

she came back the child's clothing was blazing,

and before she could extinguish the flames its body had been burned almost into a crisp. There was a red-hot stove in the room, and the child, it is supposed, fell against it, when its clothing was ignited. The coroner investigated the case yes terday, and found that the horrible death was accidental. The people are colored. A LESSON TO LADIES. Sirs. Ewing's Practical Lecture Yesterday Afternoon on the Science of Soup-Making. The second of Mrs. Emma P. Ewing's lectures on cookery was given yesterday afternoon, at Plymouth Church. The subject discussed and illustrated was "Soup Making." Soups are considered very hygienic if properly prepared, and especially healthful for invalid; and convalescents, being the first thing given to the latter. If simply and delicately prepared, a delicate soup preceding a hearty dinner is healthful and increases the appetite, where if a rich soup is served it produces the contrary euect. If soups are cooked properly for those who are well thoy are sufficiently delicate for invalids. In buying bones for soup 6tock, otserve first of all the freshness of it, as the fine flavor of the stock depends on the freshness of and quality of the meat Tho toughest meats produces the finest flavors in soup stock. A ben three years old will produce a more deliciously flavored stock than one a year old. The soup bone should be one-half bone and one-half meat to obtain the most successful result in makingstocks. The nutrition of soup stock comes from the lean meat, the flavor from the bones, and the gelatinous substance merely thickens it. It has no nutritive qualities. The best method for preparing, Mrs. Ewing teaches, is to wash merely the skin that may be on the meat with a napkin and dry it, or with a sharp knife remove it, as that is the only part of the meat that is supposed to be dirty. After washing, it should be put in a granite-iron pot, with a cover, and merely cover with cold water, adding a little salt not enough to season, but a little aids in extracting the juices and retaining the flavor. When it boils push it on the back of the range, where it will 6immer for three or four hours. To cool the stock put it in a well-glazed earthen crock or dish, and place it where it wilPcool as quickly aB possible, the more rapidly the more nutritious and the finer will be the flavor of the stock. It should, however, never be cooled for invalids. When cold the grease should all be skimmed off, but the little brown particles that are found at the bottom of a dish of beef stock should never be destroyed, as they contain the osmaJTone which preserves the fine flavor of the extracted juices and on which they depend. The stroneer the stock is the longer it will l eep. Clarifying soups destroys the flavor. All stock is better when allowed to get cold before using for soup. When preparing the stock for the table there should be added as much water as the taste suggests for a mild or strone soup, together with whatever vegetables are desired. All soups are combined under five general kinds plain, clear, vegetable, white and mixed. These different kinds of soups were actually illustrated in the lession, and each member of the class, including a lonely man in the corner, was allowed to taste of them, if they had their own spoon aDd would carefully wipe it off on the napkin each was required to bring. The lecture was well attended and interesting to practical housewives. The lecture to day will oe on "iiow to fronerly try man, Uysters. i'oI ' STORIES ABOUT SWAPPING. . Two Trades That the Courts Are Asked to In vestigate and Pass Upon. Last fall Benjamin Fisher, who lives out in Wayne township, traded to his neighbor, Will iam Sloan, a wugon, which he had recently had repainted, and which had all the appearance of being new. After a time Sloan found it wasjtn old wagon repainted, and when his neighbor would not trade back he brought suit for the re covery of $40, the amount he claimed he had paid over and above the worth of the wagon. The case was tried before Judge Taylor yesterday, and the jury decided that Mr. Sloan would have to abide by the result of his trade. Several days ago James Brooks, colored, asked Joseph Smith, a dealer in horses, to secure him a nice ponv, for which he would give, in exch anee, a cow. Smith agreed, and Wednesday, while Mr. and Mrs. Brooks were away, he took an old horse he had found, put it in Brook s stable and drove away the cow, which he traded to Charles Fatterson. Y hen Mr. and Mrs. Brooks came home they were not satisfied with the trade that had been made in their absence, and swore out a warrant for the arrest of both Smith and Patterson. The writ was placed in the hands of Detective Thornton, who arrested the two traders on the charge of grand larceny. 1 THE MECHANICS' LIEN LAW. An Amendment That Local Builders and Con tractors Want the Legislature to Adopt. i: There was a meeting of contractors, sub-con tractors, mechanics and material men at the Builders' Exchange, last night, for the purpose of taking action on the new lien act that ba3 been introduced into the Legislature by Representative Morse, of this city. J. C. Adams presided, and S. D. Fraser acted as secretarv. There were between fifty and one hundred persons present, representing the different branches of labor in the city. At a previous meetisg a committee of twenty was appointed to examine the bill and make a report Mr. Adams, as chairman of the committee, submitted the report. It recommended the passage of the bill, with an amendment taken from the lien law of Iowa, making the land upon which a building stands suojeci io anaeuuieni uy lue law. Alter con a - A 1 . , . 1 , . siderable discussion the bill was read by sections, and, with the amendment, was indorsed. The bill is different from the old law. in that it erants more privileges to laborers of all kinds. Under its provisions any person furnishing labor may taise a nenon nis employer s property lor his pay. Forsaken by His Friends. Joseph btipp, the forger, was taken to the northern penitentiary yesterday, at noon. He is fifty years of age, and pleaded long for his free dom. When he found that he must go, he asked for poison with which to take his life, saying tLt he would rather die than spend two vears in prison, nis wne ana irienas iorsook him after he became involved in his trouble. During his seven months' confinement his wife called upon him but once. Died While Nursing Her Baby. Mrs. Lucy Harvey, a colored woman, residing on jen?rson avenue, near neasant run. was nursing her six-week-old babe, yesterday morn ing, when her husband and daughter, who were in an adjoiuing room, heard , a deep sigh from her. They went into the room and found her dead. Heart disease was the cause. , Demands of the Hod-Carriers.

TALK ABOUT MEN.

Gossip and Information Regarding: Persons About Whom Things Are Incidentally Said. Joseph Stubblefield is the representative from Pike. "Uncle Joe,"' as everybody calls him, is a Republican, the first Pike county ever sent to the Legislature! This is the first office Mr. Stubblefield ever ran for, and he was elected by 240 majority, his election in a county overwhelmingly Democratic being one of the most notable surprises of the November election. In 1854 he and another man organized the Republican party in Pike county. It was a nice, compact little party, and in 1856 he and the other member of the party cast just two votes for John C. Fremont for President, which were all the votes the Republican candidate received. Mr. Stubblefield is sixty-two years old. He was long a wellknown Methodist preacher of the Peter Cartright pattern, with as much backbone in him as Brownlow, the fighting parson of Tennessee. Mr. Stubblefield knew Peter Cartright, and is fond of talking of the pioneer preacher. He is now a farmer, is as good a judge of horseflesh as any man in Pike county and always ready for a trade. He is full of dry wit and quaint expressions, but, as he puts it himself, "I have one thing to recommend me to the favorable consideration of the cabinet of heaven when the world is on fire, and that is that I have spent a long life in the Christian work of fighting Democrats." It is told of Uncle Joe that he was once making a speech, giving it to Democrats in fine style, when he made use of the expression that he "believed that a Democrat would go as straight to perdition as a honey bee to a buckwheat patch." Three or four strapping big fellows rose to their feet and began to shuck their coats. Uncle Joe erasoed the situation. and hastened to add the savine clause, "unless they repent, which appeased the risiner wrath of the three Democratic champions. Green Smith's swagger, as he daily comes into the House at the head of the Senators, affords Uncle Jo much entertainment, though he confesses that he feels better when they depart The other dayT as they passed out the door returning to the Senate after the joint convention Smith went out last "It reminds me," said Uncle Jo, "of the swine that ran into the sea. There they go, and the blue boar is the last to go over tho cliff." John N. Loop, the representative from Howard county, comes to the House with a Republican majority of over 1,300. He lives in Kokomo and is a manufacturer of standard measures, peck and bushel He is thirty-two years old and has taught school eighteen terms. He ran for the Legislature against Judge James O'Brien, a popular Democrat The Judge was disposed to be jocose during the campaign, frequently remarking that when he got throu?h with Loop there wouldn't be enough of him to fill one of his peck measures. Before the campaign ended the Judge changed his mind and after the election was magnanimous enough to acknowledge there was more of the youne man than he had thought He is a member of the Methodist church and active in its work. He is a Knight of Labor, but not to be beguiled by any wolves in Democratic sheep clothing. Senator J. H. a Smith, of Wells, is greatly pleased with the prefix of "Hon." as it appears before his name. He is often observed, with an envelope in hand, feasting his eyes on the ad dress in which the honored name of Smith is usnerea in oy the prefix "Jtion." Word comes from Bluffton that the lot of Governor's mes sages, received there by numbers of the Senator's constituents, had written upon them, in a hand they recognized as his, the words, "From the Hon. J. II. C. Smith." Letters were also received by friends there signed "Hon.J.H. C Smith," and a box was seen en route from Indianapolis to the Senator's mansion labeled, "r Tom lion. j. ju. u. bmith. Mr. bmith is a Senator, and is entitled to the prefix of honora ble. Everybody who is acquainted with htm is pleased to know this designation is appreciated by him at its full value. This title is worn too loosely by many members of the General Assem bly, and not held as the priceless thing it is. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY. Dr. Rachel Swain will remain in St Louis over Sunday.
