The prospects are for a big attendance of people from over the State at the two games on Wednesday with Boston. The home team's victory. Saturday, preatly encouraged tbe home patrons. Tbe boys can lose to-day's came and still bo in bigh favor. Conway will pitch for Detroit to-day, and Healy for the home team. It will be tbe lan appearance of Detroit in this city until July 20. Local patrons of the eame may rest contented with the assurance that they will see a new pitcher in the box Uv Indianapolis within a week. - Manager Watkins says of his team: ''Every man is confident that we will win the pennantWe are working hard ami steadily and taking good care of ourselves. We are sure to est it." It is not likely that Mark Baldwin will do auy pitching for the Chicago club ior some time t come. The last heard from bim was that he had just thrown away his crutches, but was still very weak.. Tbe White Caps, with Seaner and O'Connel as a battery, defeated the Standards, with its battery of Schuc'srow and Anderson, in a close gsme. The score was 23 to 2L Both sides plsyed welL Tbe Memphis club disbanded, Saturdav, as did tbe Dallas (Tx.) club earlier in the week. Ewing. the Memphis pitcher sold to Louisville recentty, pitched a brilliant game against Brooklyn on Saturdsy. Kinsman, the Cincinnati boy. is makine hie mark with the Bostons. In last Tnurtdsy'e fourteen inning game with Wssbinjton, be led at the bst with Johnston, the great center fielder, each securing four hits. Tbe St Louis Sporting News is authority for the statement that the Indianapolis club Is after McOuerv. Beard and !ligins, of the Syracuse urn.' The team would have no place for any the zneu, and the rumor is groundless. The came between the Maroons and Matlon- , yesterday, was a rather one-sided affair, icltiaeln a scora of 21 to 3 in favor of the .roons. Both batteries did good work, bower. Welch and Brown for the winners, snd ollehan and Fally for the Nationals. President Reach, of tbe Philadelphia club, was officially notified by President N. E. Young, of tbe Leag-ue, Friday, that the League clubs had voted to allaw the Philadelphia club to reduco the price cf admlasiou to twenty-five cents. This anion was made necessary by tbe fast that the League games In that city have been very E&cxl pauoaliii this seaton, and net only the

Philadelphia! but tbe visiting elubs were losing money at the higher rate of admission. As a result of the Ooductioa there were 11,000 people at the game Saturday. A WOMAN'S EXTREME GENEROSITY.

The Slightest Favor Is Rewarded bj Gifts in Money and Costlj Articles. For some length of time the street-car employes on the Blake and Noble-street line bare bad their curiosity aroused by tbe generosity of an old lady who frequents the northern terminus of that line. Mrs. Reikel, as she gives her name, lives in a dingy, one-story house, No. 2 Peru street, her husband being in employ at tbe Atlas engine-works. She is a short, fullfaced brunette, of German decent, and is apparently about fifty years of aee. Although she is reputed to be immensely wealthy she in variably makes ber appearanee dressed in clothes that often are shabby, and betoken a carelesscess that she conld easily overcome by a judicious expenditure of her finances. . She is distant ' ia her conversation to all but those for whom she entertains a liking, and At times she is very marked in her partiality. She is the wonder of her neighborhood for her uncalled-for geoerouj gifts to per sons she has never before seen. A favor done ber, if it meets her approval, will be rewarded as quickly by a gold watch or a twenty-dollar gold piece as one would throw a penny to ft street urchin. By the boys of tbe neighborhood who fall in the charmed cirole of her favor she is kindly cherished for the many acts of leniency she has shown toward them. Their pockets are kept bountifully filled with small change from her purse, and upon some she has been so kind as to bestow an occasional jug of excellent whisky. But her most remarkable gifts have been to the employes of the street-car line. It seems that she considers herself continually indebted to them for little favors, such as being helped on and oS the cars and tbe like. Such acts she frequently rewarded by articles from a box of cigars all the way op to an 5S5 gold watch. '0h, yes." said A. A. Anderson, secretary of the city ear lines to a reoorter lately, I know or that case well. Mrs. Reikel likes us fellows, and has gone so far as to enrich some of the boys, althoueh I never had the good fortune to make her acquaintance. She has a mania for getting rid of her money, of which her husband says she has plenty. Opinions differ as to her sanity. She was for a time" at the Insane Hospital, but I believe she was released as being harmless. She is evidently a person of queer ideas if sheis6aoe." Quite a number of the drivers and conductors who have experienced her generous turn of mind were talked with, and the universal opinion was that the woman is, not insane, but merely has an insatiable mania for rewarding her friends with money. Conductor J. P. Riggs, living at 1591 Indiana avenue, is one of her most ardent friends. He has seeu her take a seat in his car, holding on ber lap a common sized glass fruit jar half filled with ten and twenty-dollar gold pieces. Upon the slightest favor shown her she would reward the person doing it with a coin. This has happened time and time again. To one boy, who simply drove her chickens from the alley into her yard, she gave ten dollars. Every market day she may be seen hovering around among the stalls, rewarding those wnom sbe choo?es for toe slightest act. One peculiar featurn about the woman 13 the fact that if her money is not accepted she will never repeat her attempt to bestow it. 'She says it must be received from a sense of duty. Numerous cases were found where even officers of tbe law were, called ia to compel her to receive back again what she had given to individuals, but ia no instance would sho accept. Her husband, when spoken to in regard to tne matter, simply remarked: "It is her money. She can do with it as she ehoosos." The instances of her extreme acts of rewarding, which aro very numerous, especially on the Blake and Noble-street line, certainly do not point to a settled state of mind, and, while the woman may not be insane, her actions betray a condition that is but mildly explained as the result of mere mania. TRAGIC SEQUENCE OP A SCANDAL. Johnson May Recover and His Faithless Wife .Not So Badly Hurt us Reported. The shooting Saturday nigbt, a sequence of the Johnson-Alexander scandal, will possibly end in the death of the wronged husband and tne recovery of the faithless wife. Jerse Johnson rested well at the City Hospital all day yesterday, although ha suffered considerable pain at times, and towards evening became worse. Ho was conscious-all the time, and frequently made inquiries regarding the condition of his wife, and whether she was with Alexander. Dr. Oliver thin its there is a fair chance for his recovery. The chances for Mrs. Alexander's (or Mrs. Johnson'6, as the gossips call her, as suits their pleasure) recovery are perhaps better than those of her former husband. The ball did not strike her spine, as at first reported, but went a little to the right of it The paralysis with which she seemed to be afflicted Saturday night, left her yesterday, and although sbe suffered considerable pain, she was at all times conscious, and talked very freely of the tragedy to those who were permitted to see her. She says when she first saw Johnson Saturday evening he was approaching her carrying his bat in one band, and a revolver In the other. Believing he intended to snoot her she started to turn back, and as she did so he fired ono shot- at her head, which missed her. She then stir ted to run, and he fired upon her twice. The first shot micsed her and the last one took effect. As she fell she saw him place the pistol to his own breast and fire.' D. II. Barrett, of Greencastle, who was struei by one of the stray shots, is not seriously injured, and will recover in a few dsys. Alexander was not informed of the shoo tine until yesterday morning. When turnkey Clark let him out of his cell for breakfast be told him what had occurred, and the news affected him so that he did not eat anything during the day. He talked but little. He said las( evening he hoped both Johnson and the woman would recover. His coneern about his wife was very great, and during tbe dsy he sent several messages to tbe house where she was staying to inquire about her condition. He will probably be taken to the penitentiary to-day, althoueh no ' definite arrangements have been made. Tbo publio ssntiment is very bitter against Alexander, who ts beld by all responsible for tne trouble in Mr. Johnson's home, and were be pot already a convict, there ia a probability that a movement looking to his personal injury would manifest itself. The tragedy Saturday night was what all, who have watched the developments of the scandal from the beginning, expected. It was generally predicted, however, that Alexander would be the victim of M. Johnson. It is well known that .Mr. Johnson's mind hss been deranged for some time, on account of the trouble that Alexander had brought upon bim. His relatives for that reason have been keeping a close watch over him, but Saturday night, it seems, he eluded them. Shot Ills l!rnlher-ln-Lw. A serious quarrel occurred between members cf a family in the bouse ia the rear of No. 647 North . Mississippi street, yesterday afternoon. Philip Moon and James Carter, brothers-in-law, live in the house, and for some time have been jealous . of each other. Yesterday afternoon Moon came home and found some circumstances that aroused his jealousy. He had words with Carter, and the latter struck him and ran. Moon tr.en got his revolver and followed Carter to near the corner of Tennessee and Fourth streets, where be shot at bim. Tbe ball struck Carter in tbe shoulder, but did not produce a serious wound.- Before a crowd gathered both men got away, but an hour later Carter appeared at the City Hospital, and giving his name as John Garner, asked tn have his wound d res fed. He claimed he had been accidentally shot while handling a revolver. The ball was removed, and he returned to bis homo. The police were looking for Moon last eveaiag, but could not find him. Arrested for Burglary. Ed Wilson was arrested early yestsrdsy morning, charged with burglary. Saturday evening Plora Reasaer, living on Virginia avenu?, was arrested for keeping a resort. Several hours afterward the officers saw a light in one of tbe rooms, and on going in found Wilson ransacking the house. The "Exposition Universellede 1'art Cullnaire,? awarded the Ligbest honors to Angostura Bitters as tbe most eSeacious stimulant to excite tbe appetite and to keep the digestive organs in rood order.

Knight & Jillsou have been given tbe contract to furnish tbe pipe for the natural gas company of McCordsville. and to furnish all other articles necessary to make it a complete plant. The Hadley Shoe Company expects to occupy the fonrtb story of the Parrott & Taggartr block when it is completed. The increase in business calls for more room for the company's use," . Rock wood & Neweomb report their business as good. Last week they shipped a SAw-mill complete to Gem, Ind., and another to Tennessee, and they have several orders on their hooks to filL Spiegel & Thorns, manufacturers of fine, furniture. caC the Indianapolis cabinet-works' shut down Saturday night for a couple of weeks to lane account oz sioeK ana mane repairs xo;ineir machinery. :rr; Expecting there would be a light pea crop this year the Van Camp Canning Company made arrangements to put ud only five hundred bushels a day, but last week it increased to a thousand bushels a day. .

To Increase the Police Force. .The monthly meeting of the Metropolitan Police Board will be held to-day, and the proposition to increase tho force will come up for consideration. The necessity for a larger number of men has long been apparent, and tbe only-thing that stood in the way of an increase has teeen the condition of tbe city treasury. lu view of the fact that Indianapolis will have large crowds of visitor from now until after the election tho board thinks some additional men are necessary, and at least ten more will be added. It is probable that two or three more men will be put on detective work. 1 " Hospital Ambulance Service.

The Views uf a French Writer Who lias Just -Been Expelled from Berlin. M. deBonefon, the correspondent of tbe Gaulois who was recently expelled from Berlin, gives tbe following pen portrait of the young Emperor of Germany: " 1 William II will prove a peaceful warrior.' Such is the phrase with which a royal (prince, and Imperial at that concluded three months ago a long conversation upon this living enigma, who was yesterday Crown Prince of Germany, and who is now Emperor. The new head of the HohenzoHern house is unknown.

Upon one single point those who : know, or pretend to know William IT, friends and enemies alike, are agreed, and that is that tbe commencement of his reign will be tbe commencement of war. For him, they say, everything that is not in uniform has not the weight of a straw. For him the army is a divinity, and be is the god of the German army. He is never seen except in the casernes, and the banquets of officers, and at tbe reviows. All this is true, and, furthermore, while the father chose -for military counselor General Blumenthai, the artist general, the eon surrounds himself with soldiers who are nothing but soldiers, the Kleists, the Panes, and the Waldersees. "Nevertheless, William must not be represented as a cut-and-dried trooper like a corporal after the style of the founder of the Prnssian monarchy. He wishes to be very much German and very much HohenzoHern. He is fond of his urafnrm: and holds himself erect in his little Tftvtnrev But of the HohenzoHern he has neither the ctature nor the strength, nor even the somewhat heavy and imposing beauty.

It seems to us that nothing is so natural as to visit famous or sacred places. What Scotchman can forget the absolute passion with which he made hisnrst pilcrimag to thai; poetio shrine, the little cottage in which Robert Burns was born?

Similar words apply to Abbotsford and Dryburgh. With such pleasiog illustrations drawn from the tablets of memory.it will not be difficult to understand the feelings jwbich still impel, the great pilgrimages to Mecca and Rome, and wbieh impelled Wednesday', pilgrimage to Iona. If any spot churc hj .Urtfiplace or grave is worthy of being visite4 with -feelings of devout piety, it is that which. is connected with the spread of intellectual or spiritual light, or the vindication and est ablfsh me otlof human freedom. What, in this connection, lathe Field of Bannockburn to Scotland that j a glorious and everlasting ehrins? It la - just,.-; thirty years since we made our sf pilgrimage to Iona, and although it was not made, for a special religious purpose the feelings -wbUiUjnsp'.red it and were inspired by it wera'essentially of a kind that did not exclude religions sentiment So with our latest pilerimao to the sacred isle. That was a day to ;be remembered. Mr. MacBrayne had invited Mr. Lambeth and his select choir, . who were then at-Qban, to visit Staffa and Iona. It was lovolv summer weather, and when we reached the juins of the cathedral Mr. Lambeth conducts! service cf sacred music, tbe like of j which,; we dare venture to say, had never before ibeeps heard within the hallcwed precincts. One jof rtbe..saintliet and rmst distinguished of Scottish Protestant divine i was there that day -Dr.Jfoljertson. of Irvine, now gone to bis rest; apf altogether the company looked as like a laad hi pilgrims as could be well imagined. .Xhe.nsme which endears Iona to the mcdern pilgrim is, of course, St. Colo mb a. It was St Ninian who, so far as we know, first brought the, light ot Christianity to Scotland, the scene of , bis labors being in : ..e south of Scotland, among tbe Galwegians and southern Picts, somewhere at the beginning of tbe fifth century. "After St Ninian," says Dr. Cunningham, 'Colomba is the next whose name has emerged from tbe darkness of the age in which be lived, od the still deeper darkness of the ages which -edod." It is with this celebrated saint . tn most interesting period in our ecclesij aw . ai annals begins. He was born in Ireland 1 in 521. his father's name being Fedulimid McFergus, and his mothers Aethnea McNave.. From his youth he was addicted to learning, and especially to the study of tbe Holy Scriptures. His teschers were a pious presbyter named Cruinccban, Finisn, Bishop of Clonfert, and the famous St. Ciaran, who is said to have preached before this time to the Dalriad Scots io Argyle, and from whom the parish of Kilkerran derived its name. Columba left Ireland in 5C3 with a dozen companions and landed in tbe Island of Iona on the evening of Whit Monday, just 1,007 years ?.go last month. It is believed by some thathevas compelled to leave his native country for political reasons, though others attribute his expedition to a desire to spread the light of tbe gospel to a still darkened land. At least two kings reigned in Scotland at that time Conal MaeComgail over tbe Dalriad Scots, and Brude over tbe Picts. It was from the former of these that Colomba obtained a gift of Iona, wherein he founded the monastery which afterwards became so famous in the history of the chorea a veritable spiritual fountain, froca

GEORGE A. TELEPHONE 364. 77 As. You te for it, THE SWEETEST AND which the light of Christianity was poured in fertilizing floods over Scotland. It need hardly be said that the present ruins in Iona are those of a, later strnctnre than the time of St. Columba, whose oricinal habitation was a very primitive affair. Of the thirty names which have been applied to Iona, that of Icolmkiir means -tbe island of Colum of the cells." According to Dr. Lindsay Alexander, 'Iona" is a corruption of "Ii-shona" (pronounced Ee-hona, the in Gaelio being silent before an aspirate), and signifies "Holy Island." Amone tbe facts or reports about St. Columba is one that he excluded women and cows from the island, acting on tbe maxim that "where there's a cow there will be a woman, and where there's a woman there will be mischief." The saint, however, allowed his followers to marry, the wives residing in nceighborioc island, known to this da? as "Lilian nam ban." (women's isle). Columba died at tbe age of seventy-seven. That the saint was & man of learning and piety there can be no doubt Many fables re told as to hit miraculous powers; but, after all, tbe greatest miracle any man can perform is to convert kings into Christians, and tbe slaves of kings into free men, by the instrumentalities of letters and religion. These miracles St. Columba did perform to a very contiderable eitent AN "AGAINST PART IT. General Harrison's Apt Description of the Democracy Made Five Years Ago. General Harrison at Des Moines, la., Sept. 21, 1SS3. What does tbe Democratic party stand fort What are its principles? What new direction would be given to the old sbip. if the helm shonld pass into the hands of the Democrats! I know what that party has been against. It has been an "against party. Laughter. It was against freedom in Kansas; it was egain$ tbe war; it was against the draft; it was against emancipation; it was against a greenback currency; it was against reconstruction; it was against tbe amendments: it was against the Kuklux laws; it was against the civil rights bill; it was sgainst the act to strengthen tbe public credit; it was against the resumption of specie payments; but it is not against any of these things cow it is underneath them. The country in its grand sweep has left all these things to history; they are no longer, subjects of debate they are historical facts; they are the sun-liebted peaks of our most brilliant and eventful epoch. We have climbed tbe ruggel and bloody pass. The lowering clouds have lifted or have fallen in refreshing showers. It is a time of peace and amazing prosperity throughout the land. So far as legislation and public administration can shape the course of events, these things have come because of tbe wise, courageous and patriotio legislation of the Republican party applause; they have come because the Democratic part; baa been in a minority. Titers Was a lone period in the history of our country when, as I had occasion to say once before, the Democratic party seemed to be playing with our country the child's game of "teter." When the Democratie party was up the country was down, and when the country was up the Democratio party was down. Applause. . TVnarton Barker Jubilates. Philadelphia American. As the readers of the American are well aware, the nominations made at Chicago do not awaken in ns any emotion akin to disappointment or chagrin. For at least five yesrs 51 r. Harrison has been presented in these columns as a desirable candidate for the presidency. On the 15th of December, 1883, we mentioned him as tb one Western man most to be thought of besides Mr. Edmnnds and Mr. Evarts. On March 1, 18S4, we quoted from an interview of the owner of the American, in which Mr. Harrison's was specified as the best name before the party. And in an article on Tho Republican Nomination," a week later, we a aid that no possible candidate seemed to present so many points of encouragement as did General Harrison, of Indiana. We supported his candidacy up to tbe moment of Mr. Blaine's nomination. When the defeat we feared but labored to avert had cecured, we aga?n put forward his name, describing him, March 23. 1885, as "the one man who could have been elected by the Republicans last November." Of course since tbat time we need not spesk. We have at all timos favored such a result as the convention has reached, and we rejoice now in a selection which we are sure will be the first step to a Republican victory. Harrison's Labor Ilecord, Albany Express. Benjamin Harrison, while a United States Senator, voted in favor of the law forbidding the importation of ganga of Hungarian and Italian laborers under contract A more bensnciai law was never enacted, and the failure of the present administration to enforce it is aroasing ' the waee-workers and all American citizens who object to the importation iy contractors of human cattle to disturb our labor market and debauch American citizenship. Theorrans that are proclaiming Benjamin Harrison tbe 4,enemy of labor" have apparently overlooked his record on the anti-coatract bill that became a law by tbe signature of President Arthur.

Chicago News; The Largest Check Ever Drawn. r hiladelphia Press. . Speaking of large single checks, tbe largest ever given washy John D. Taylor, treasurer ef the Pennsylvania railroad. It was drawn to the order of Lee, Hieginson & Co., for fI4,200,196, payable at the National Bank of Commerce in New York. It was in payment for tbe stoek of the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore railroad held in Boston, and it required three week circulation in order tbat the transfer of funds represented by the single piece of paper conld be effected aithnnt rfistnrhlno t Vi fnn r tk nf Vi n ft i ntta anrf trade in tbe three greatest cltiei in the country. During the whole month previous to the issue of this check Mr. Taylor, of Philadelphia, was gathering in from bankers and brokers there and throughout Pennsylvania checks on New York bankers for any balance that might be due. Meanwhile Lee, Hieginson & Co., in Boston, were collecting whatever drafts they conld gather up for money duo by New York houses to Boston, and thus this enormous sum was slowly transferred from Philadelphia to Boston without cauiing any stringency in the money market of either city. gaaaMHMBHVMgBSSsfeHsaiMSMWMse TJarrison and Vallandlgham.

He was noted in his college days for the foreefulness and logic of his speeches, but the boys hardly expected what he did one day, when Vallandigham, who, afterwards a copperhead, was there and made a pro-slavery speech, and challenged anybody to answer him. Little Ben Harrison came forward, and calmly aunounced that he wouTd answer. Vallandigham was no less surprised, and viewed bis small, fair-haired antagonist much as Goliath looked at David.

ISully for the J onrnal. Mattoon Gazette. If there is a happier paper in the country than the Indianapolis Journal we would like to know its location and name. Almost alone, during the past three months, It has, in a manly and straightforward manner, advocated tbe claims of General Harrison. The great eity dailies have cast every sneer possible at its proprietor. Hon. John C. New. and ridiculed, in tbe most htartless way. tbe merits of its candidate. But just now tbe Journal is on top in fact, it -is about half a mile above tbe top, and the St Louis, Chicago and Cincinnati papers are wondering what hit them. Bully for the Journal. Tho Speech of Hod. John M. II u tier. K okomo Gazette-Tribune. The great speeeb of Hon. John M.

It ought to be ia tbe hands and in tbe head of every voter in . the) whole country. Mr. Butler has long been recognized as one ot the ablest advocates cf. Republicanism in tbe whole country. His latest speech is the ripened fruit of many yesrs of careful studyod cannot fail of lasticg profit to the party and the people. ' N Sloppy Khetoric TroyTirars. General Harrison has been described as a well-balanced mpi. His speeches demonstrate tbat fact . He Ul srs good sense in excellent language, ana has tne art or putting nis remarks briefly and cogently. He will make a dignified eampaign, one which the Republicans and the people generally can look npon with pleasure.
