Arrangements Tht Are Being 3Tade by the Harrison Home Club for the Journey. It is probablo that the adjourned meeting of the Harrison Ilome Club, next Saturday 5vc.ung, -will be a large one. The committees for the furtherance of the excursions to Washington for the inauguration will report. It is desired that every member of the club, and that everyone who may wish to becomo a member, with a view to attendIng the inauguration, will be present. Some doubts have been expressed as to the possibility of any organization not strictly military taking part in the parade. M. M. Parker, chairman of the committee at Washington on "Civic Organizations," write expressing gratification that the club expects to take part, and promises, in the event the club should desire to join the parade, an honorable position in the line. On Saturday night the committee on accommodation at Washington, consisting of Col. J. A. lJridgland. Worth Wright and Austin F. Denny, will report. Colonel Brid gland has just returned from Washington and says a very favorable arrangement can be made there. A new building, just finished for a hotel, but not formally opened for that purpose, will afford very comfortable quarters for the club, cots and furnishings lor sleeping, and two meals per diem, at a cost of $3 per day. The menu is specified, and shows a very sumptuous and complete table. The accommodation is sufficient for six hundred persons. In m the event that there should be any considerable number of persons who desiro some different accommodation, facilities for that purpose can be commanded. Frank I 1. Wright, chairman of the public comfort committee, in writing to Austin F. Denny, says: "As to accommodations for your club, as an organization, I would say that wc can rind good sleeping quarters and board for vonr men, where they will bo furnished with cots and beds at rates from $2.r0 to 3.50 rr day per man. Of course you will understand that this does not . mean a single room for each man. Or we can furnish your organization with sleeping quarters, without meals, at from Si to 2 per day. You could, in this event, get your meals at some of the hotels." Th members of the club are offered rates, going and returning, at 15. It is pretty well settled that the cost of the trip, with a stay of three da3s, including aome small extravagances, need not exceed $00. There is some talk of adoption of a very neat and gentlemanly uniform for those in the parade, which will be useful for general wear, at a cost of less than fc'JO. It is desired that any one who cannot attend the meeting on Saturday evening, and who expects to go to Washington with the club, will notify Austin I . Denny, of the committee on invitation, at once, with a view to making as accurate an estimate as possible of tho number to be accommodated. llzx; bedroom sets at Win. L. Elder's.

A discission of thedrainaee law was begun, and continued through the greater part of the evening session. It resulted in the appointment of a committee to consult with the drainage committees of tho House and Senate concerning proposed amendments to the law. The methods of subdividing a section of land consumed tho remainder of the evening session, the question being raised whether or not it was advisable to extend the lines a mile each way or half that distance. The opinion was that better results could be obtained from half-mile extension. The organization is now made np of about 120 members. ThMlection of officers for the ensuing year will occur this afternoon. INDIANA CANE-GROWERS. Producers of Sorghum Sugar and Syrup Meet to Exchange Ideas on Their Industry. The seventh annual meeting of the Indiana Cane-growers' Association convened, yesterday afternoon, in the State Board of Agriculture rooms, with President A. S. Chapman, of Madison, in the chair, and C. B. Nicholson as temporary secretary. The attendance of members was good, nearly fifty being present when President Chapman called them to order and submitted his address. In his remarks the history of the association was reviewed at considerable length, and a good deal of comfort was found in its record. He urged upon tho members the propriety of securing some portion of the 65,000 unused appropriation by the general government for sorghum experiments, and of insisting on tho granting of a bounty by the Legislature of this State for sugar grown within the State limits. Touching the government assistance in perfecting the syrup industry, discovering and establishing the best machinery and methods applicable thereto, he said the association should still make its voice heard, for to the mass of farmers the raising of the best varieties of cane, the knowledge of the best methods of making the syrup, and the most practical machinery, added to a general knowledge of the uses of sorghum as a general farm crop, is of farmore importance than how to make sugar, though the latter is by no means to bo ignored. The present Senate bill placing 6ngar on the free list should receive attention, not as apolitical measure, but as one affecting the industry. A communication from Prof . H. W. Wiley, of the division of Chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture, was read, in which the writer notes that there is a place for pure sorgham syrups which could not be filled by any possiblo extention of the sorghum sugar industry It would be difficult to obtain a gallon of pure sorghum molasses or sj'rup in any of the large Eastern cities. Another point must, he 6aid, not be forgotten, was that on account of limitation of season and soil the 6orghum sugar industry is not likely to spread over a large area of the country; for instance, in Indiana it is scarcely possible that sorghum sugar can be profi tably made unless it be in the extreme southern part of the State. The severe frosts which often fall in September in the central and northern portions of the State would prevent the working of sorghum for sugar on a large 6cale. These early frosts, however, do not interfere with the manufacture of syrup and molasses, t since even frosted cane, unless it has been fermented, can be successfully manufactured into the abovo articles. In conclusion, the Professor wrote more hopefully of the outlook for the success of sorghum as a sugar-producing plant, and asks that samples of the syrups produced in this State be sent to tho united States Department of Agriculture for exhibition at tho coming Paris exposition. In the discussion which followed W. F. Leitzman argued that the climate of this State was not good for sorghum sugar but was first-class for syrup. Peter Raub thought the excellence of the latter consisted mainly in the way which it was made. S. W.;Tilsin considered it a treacherous article one year one thing and another year another. Mr. Leitzman suggested that it was rain which caused sorghum sugar to revert. Prof. R. T. Brown held the samo opinion, and gave his experience as a sorghum grower since lSTHJ. Committees were appointed cs follows: On resolutions, W. F. Leitzman, D. McCorkle, John Richmond; on new officers, Edwin Berry. A. P. Cleland, W. C. Hutchinson; on programme for next meeting. C. B. Nicholson, E. W. Tomlinson, John Richmond; on premiums for papers submitted, S. W. Tilson, Isaac Engle. Andrew Y. Neff'. Messrs. Pope and McCorkle were appointed an additional committee to secure an inspection by citv grocers of the sorghum syrup samples exnibited, pome twenty in number. An election of officers for the coming year resulted in the selection of a list recommended by the committee, viz.: President A. 8. Chapman. . Vice-president D. II. Talbott Secretary N. B. Dewey. Treasurer W. F. Leitzman. The papers read during the afternoon included one on 'Sorghum and its Products." submitted by W. F. Leitzman, in which he traceel the history of both the Chinese and African cane, claiming that the former had been cultivated in China in 2000 B. C. In 1854 it was introduced in the United States, and had a boom, which died out by 18C0. The war revived its cultivation, but it fell off again, owing mainly to the nauseating quality of the product. Tho crop looked up again a little in 1877, when the Minnesota early amber cane was brought to the front, but it fell away in the next ten years, and in 18S3 there was but one large sugar factory, at Fort Scott, Kan., which was used as an experiment station. There were forty million gallons of fine sorghum syrup manufactured in 18S7, valued at over twelve millions of dollars, and 726,711 pounds of sorghum sugar, or about the fifth of rn ounce for each inhabitant of the United States. A. P. Cleland read a paper on "Smokestacics for Evaporators," in which he advocated a high chimney, and C. A. Porter gave his methods of harvesting and yarding cane, and after some further discussion the association took a recess until ovenintr. At the evening session a paper by D. H. Talbert. of Spiceland, on 4Natural Gas as Applicable to Sorghum Making," was read. He stated that he had used the gas for evaporation. An open pipo burner was employed, but through ignorance in regard to the mixing of air with the gas he experienced some trouble in tho accumulation of soot on tho cooking-pans. The difficulty was overcome by the proper introduction of currents of air, and the results thereafter obtained were of a high order. The gas, he said, gives a heat absolutely perpetual without the slightest variation, and its power in evaporation is simply wonderful, absorbing all moisture within its reach. As the rapid reduction of juice to syrup is the most essential factor in producing a lirst-class article, the greatest advantage in this line, ho claimed, can be obtained by using natural gas. As to stirring off sorghum, gas has only one advantage over wood, in one's ability to perfectly control it. Iu furnishing 6teain heat he thought it superior to any heat, as it will not ouni or scorch when properly used. D. M. McCorckle read a paper on "What I Have Learned the Past Season in Sorghum-making." In planting the cane he had used a check-roller, dropping the seed in a double row three feet and eight inches apart. The experiment was not satisfactory, and during tho coming season ho will plant thirty inches apart, lie also fouud thafthe best results obtained were from the cane which had lain on the ground for two weeks. It gives better syrup. A ceneral discussion wa? entered into in

regard to tho best means of planting tho cane. Almost an universal opinion prevailed that the seed should not bo planted too deep. Some favored the hand-sowing and foot-covcrins mode, while others claimed that eouallv cood results micht be had from the use of a corn-planter. Fall planting was recommended as being beneficial, the experience of one of tho members being an increase of fifty gallons of 6yrup to the acre from that means. Alter discussing the various modes for removing refuse matter, and expressions of opinion as to the best varieties of cane, the vZA. .-- n.)iAin,A1 until CnA rt'jtl nilr 4Viia morning. Veterlnarlani and Bee-Keepen. The State veterinary surgeons, those who are graduates of veterinary colleges,and the State Bee-Keepers Association will hold meetings at Agricultural Hall in tho Statehouse to-day. The first will be called to order at 10 a. m.. and the other at 1 r. M. Before the veterinarians, who meet tozether for the first time. Dr. Rogers will read a paper on diseased meats and animal in

After the installation ceremonies speeches were made, following which tho members enjoyed a social evening. Annexation of Canada. At the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. Senate last night the bill for the annexation of Canada was again under consideration, DurbinDunlap closing the discussion in favor of the bill, which waspassed by" a considerable majority. Considerable interest was shown in the debate, and the galleries areusuallv well filled at each meetinc.

After some discussion as to what vote is necessary to pass a bill the Senate adjourned to meet next Tuesday evening at o o ciock. She Did Not Resiffm State Librarian Lizzie Callis Scott says she did not hand in her resignation to Gov ernor Hovey, as reported, and has no intention of offering it. The erroneous statement grew out of a jocular remark made by Private Keeretarv Roberts to Mrs. Scott, on Monday last, when she visited the Gov ernors office to leave some documents lor . his inspection. The Thespian Society. The Indianapolis Musical and Dramatic Association, at a meeting held recently, adopted a new constitution, and made ar rangements for filing articles of incorpora tion under the title of the Thespian Society. The association has several plays cast, and proposes to arrange for a hall of its own, and give musical and dramatic entertain ments. I Us First Requisition.
