Colored 3Ienr Tell the Indianapolis Republican Club How Their Race U Abused. Only a fair attendance was present at the meeting of the Indianapolis Republican Club last night, attributable, probably, to other attractions in the city. EarJy in tho evening a delegation from tho Knights of Friendship was introduced to the club, anl several members made interesting addresses. Among tho visitors were R. R. Smith. Benjamin Dukej, I. Houston, C. Jones, A. IJrown and I. M. Jones, Memphis, Tenn., and L. V. William a. Bryant Luster and H. X. Smith. Littlo Rock. Ark. Mr. Smith entertained the club for liftcen minutes with an exposition of Southern politics and its relations to tho negro. In . tho last election, he said, the colored voto was wholly disregarded in tho final count. In order to cut it otf altogether, by taking advantage of the illiteracy of the race, tho Democrats proposed a bill in the Tennessee Legislaure that no person should bo entitled to a vote who could not read or write. Ho had seen a colored man. waiting at the polls in his city to cast his vote, wholly disregarded until a scoro of white Democrats had dropped in their ballot. Although thero aro Democratic neproes in tho State, Mr. Smith said, they are all floaters. Bryant Luster related incidents connected with the assassination of Clayton, A in that State, and of t wo other leading Kepu blicans. It is no uncommon thing, ho said, for ballot-boxes to be stolen and the colored vote destroyed, while for a negro to expect any mercy in a court of justice, according to his unique way of expressing it. "is like lawing the devil in his own regions." In order to meet more of the Kniahts in a body the club decided to hold x special meeting at 4 o'clock this afternoon in their halL Every member is expected to be present. Huslness of Importers.

SOLDIERS 01? THE LEGION

Scenes in Camp, Where Future Warriors of tho Country Gain Instruction. Service Enlivened by Incidents to Lighten the Severity of Discipline The Guard-House Has Scteral Occupants Militia Xotcs. Yesterday could not have been more bright and beautiful had it been made for the Italian weather market. Its glories wexe thoroughly enjoyed by the militiamen in Camp Hovey, who, in tho oft-duty hours, sat or lay in the bcechen shade, inhaling zephyrs as they rolled in from the 6outh and west laden with the perfume of cloverfields. Now and then one would arouse himself for a time from the dolco far men te to fill a pipe or plunge a knife into tho ripe red core of one of sutler Fuller's watermelons, but even theso pleasant diversions soenicd to require too much exertion. "When the Boys were on duty, however, they were every inch tho soldier, and at brigade headquarters tho admission was made that no such improvement had ever been made in men in the same length of time at any previous encampment of the Legion. This Admission was not made for publication, as thoro is no desiro to make the militiamen too largo for the uniforms they now wear, as the State of Indiana will not furnish them with new clothes should these suddenly become too small. Tho few men in camp who, by reason of delay in tho arrival of uniforms, have marred the military aspect of thg column at dress parade, have at last received their soldier clothes, and a pleasant uniformity will take tho place of the conspicuous aberrations of raiment that have heretofore prevailed. Dnring the morning General Ruckle made an informal inspection of those parts of the camp occupied by the First and Third regiments, and after battalion drill in the afternoon went through the quarters of tho Second Regiment. This inspection was merely instructive, to inform officers and men what is required in the way of order and cleanliness. The rule as to he admission of vehicles to the camp has been changed somewhat. Hereafter carriages will be permitted to come into camp, but not allowed to stop in tho clover field south of it. Drivers of vehicles will bo required to drive past the front of the Third Regiment, and then turn into the grove. They will not bo permitted to go through the company streets, but must remain stationary, except when coming in or going out of tho camp. To-morrow carriages will bo permitted to occupy the north line of tho parade ground. The otlicers placed on duty at guard mount yesterday, were: Third Regiment, officer of the day, Capt. Long; officer of tho guard, Lieut. Dickinson. First Regiment, otiicerof the day, Capt Valentine; officer of the guard, Lieut. KOlb. Second Regiment, officer of tho day, Capt. Rawles; officer of the guard, Lieut. Ashley. First Regiment of Artillery, officer of toe day, Capt. Lash; sergeant of tho guard, Sergeant Christian. Tho brigade otiicerof the day was Major Charles if. McCarer. That duty will be performed to day by Major Harry B. Smith, of the Second Regiment. When daylight came yewtewlay morning a careful census fchowed twenty-eight occupants of the guard-houses. They were soldiers who had gone out skylarking and attempted to run the lines during tho night, borne of these disobeyed tho regulations of the camp more out of a spirit of fun and banter than for any other reason, but it was not long after sunrise when they discovered they had made a 6enous mistake. Theso offenders were brought out under guard and compelled to clean up t he camp, which was not at all what they had bargained for. The guard-house of the Second Regiment held an even dozen of the culprits, nearly all of whom belouged to other commands, but had fallen into tho clutches of Col. McKee's vigilant sentinels. Tho Colonel felt rather comfortable over the situation, as his own men were saved from doing just that much work. Two or three visitors overstayed their timo after taps, and when they attempted to pass out of camp were taken in ehargo by tho sergeant of the guard. One of these was W. B. Roberts, the Governor's private secretary, who was suffered to depart after much timo consumed in explanation. lie had a long and dismal walk through the dark woods, pelted by the rain and. ever and anon, startled by a bat or screech owl. When he reached Thirteenth street he found that the last pair of mules had been stabled, and ho continued his weary walk, arriving at his boarding-house at 1:3) o'clock in the morning. "We do not put the boys in the guard-house merely to bo severe with them." remarked General Ruckle to tho reporter, "but to encourage them to remain in camp. The men are to bo present on duty, or at every roll-call, during tho twenty-four hours. Those men .in the guard-house who missed two rollcalbj lose two days' pay, and besides that have to do police duty about tho camp." There was a much greater number of visitors in camp yesterday than on any previous day, and a still larger attendance is looked for to-day. Among the visitors was Governor Hovey, and the men gave him a great reception on his arrival. He expres;d himself as much pleased with the appearance of the camp, and remarked of the young soldiers whom ho saw as the regiments matched out upon the parado ground that they reminded him very much of the boys who went out in ;G1, and who aro now grizzled veterans. The Fort Wayne Mattery. The Fort Wayne battery, organized in Ma, 1S-SS, will press the older artillery organizations for first honors. It is composed of twenty-two exceedingly active and alert young men, who aro not afraid of any duty that will redound to tho credit and increase the efficiency of tho battery. The officers are J. C. Williard, captain; W. F. Ranke, first lieutenant; W. W. Muugen, second lieutenaut; Frank Morgan, first sergeant. They have tho heaviest gun on the grounds, but handle it with much dexterity. It is a twelve-pound Napoleon, an old-fashioned brass piece, but they do the best they can with it and never murmur. The gun weighs 1,:&0 pounds, wheels lsi pounds each and gun carriage, without wheels, 7UC The total weight of the entire outfit, including tho caisson, is 7,7lti. This is the piece the battery handled at Evnnsville, where it took a prize. It also took a prize in the Gatling-gun drill. Tho battery will give a battalion drill with horses this morning. Notes from the Camp. t The Attica battery will give a mounted drill to-day. Upton's Tactics ore being thumbed as they have not been since ''the late war." Otto F. Pfatliin, the brigade bugler, is a veteran in camp calls, ns he was bugler for Gen. G. D. Wagner's brigade during tho late unpleasantness. TheRockville Light Artillery Band is composed of members of tho gun squad of that battery. Its members are serving as musicians for the Second Regiment at dress parades, a favor that is greatly appreciated by that regiment. Company C. Second Regiment, command ed by Captain koddius, or uunker Jlill, is worthy of the locality of the historic name. Its members aro faithful and efficient, taking pleasure in doing well ail the duties assigned to them. Undertaker Krecelo has Jdecided to make two trips taily with his ambulance between Camp Hovey and the City Hospital, while the militia is in camp, for the benefit of any militiamen who may need its assistance. The trips will bo made at 5 a. m. and 5 r. m. There are four brass bands in camp, and all make excellent music and plenty of it. Yesterday morning a number of enterprising soldiers organized a kazoo band. They will play a number of pieces by an Indiana composer, specially arranged for their instruments. An enterprising photographer was on the ground yesterday, taking views of everything he could bring his instrument to bear upon. "Looks like a Gatling-gun drill." remarked a Fort Wayne artilleryman, as the photographer ducked his head under the cloth to take a view of the guns parked on the hill. Mr. liignet's maxim, "Discipline must be maintained," was exemplified by Quartermaster Frank. He was sauntering up tho bill, atop of which is brigade headInarters. His coat was unbuttoned, and e was puffing away leisurly at a corn-cob pipe. Suddenly he bethought himself that ho was approaching the presence of the

General. He stopped quickly, hid away his pipe under a chunk, bnttencd up his coat, walked briskly up hill, saluted the General, made his report, marched down hill, turned over the stump, and took out his pipe, which was yeta light. One of tho pleasant incidents of the camp was tho presentation of a handsome sword by the officers and men of the First Regiment to their commanding officer, CoL W. D. Ewing. The presentation speech was made by Adjutant W. C. Keller, of Evansville, tho Colonel responding in a very felicitous manner. Major W. C. David, acting assistant quartermaster-general, is astonished at the stores of provisions it takes to feed tho men. "Never saw anything like it," heremarked yesterday, as he returned from a delivery of supplies. "They eat twice- as much as men in actual service in tho field; regular picnic appetites. Three citizens who ran the lines were taken by the artillery pickets, and placed in -the guard-house. Yesterday morning, like Arnold Winkelried, of sacred memory, they "made way for liberty." breaking through tho guard, and scattering over the clover field pouth of the camp. Pursuit proved ineffectual, and they mad good their escape.

CORNER-STONE CEREMONIES. Some of the Arrangements That nave Been Made for that Event Circular to Veterans. The following camp-fire programme was yesterday adopted by the Soldiers Monument Commission, to be carried out on tho evening of the ,day when tho corner-stone is laid: Prayer; addresses, The Monument," S. B. Voyles; "The Private Soldier," Daniel Waugh; 'The Commanding Officer," Gen. Jasper S. Packard; 'The Prisoner of War." CoL A. D Streight; "The Sons of Veterans," Albert J. Beveridge; "Indiana in tho War," Wm. IL Myers. Department Commander Chas. M. Travis will preside at tho camp-fire.

A. R. : : and citizen, $22,000. : : Aug. 2j, i8bi. : In reference to the ceremonies a circular was yesterday issued to the posts in this State by Commander Travis, of theG. A. R. It contains the following: "The Commissioners of the Indiana State Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument have requested that the ceremonies of laying the corner-stone of the monument should be taken charge of and conducted by the Grand Army of the Republic. This is a great honor, properly bestowed upon our noble order, and in accordance with said request it is hereby announced that such ceremonies will be held on Thursday, the 22d day of August, 1889, and all posts and comrades, togother with their fnmilies and friends, are earnestly requested to be present on the occasion of laying this corner-stone of the grand testimonial to the valor and patriotism of Indiana's sons. The Woman's Relief Corps, Sons of Veterans and other organizations have been invited, and will attend in organized bodies, and aid by their presence in making this an occasion long to bo remembered. The President of the United States, General-in-chief of the Army, General Sherman, Commander-in-chief Warner, and other distingnshed soldiers and citizens have been invited and will be present. A great camp-fire will be held in Tomlinson Hall in the evening. A programme) of ceremonies will be widely published by the press in ample time for general information, and it will be the endeavor of thoso having the arrangements in charge to make this an event in the history of our State. "The railroads have agreed to mako a low fare to enable all to attend. The Ohio, Indiana it Western, Cincinnati. Hamilton V- Indianapolis, Indiananolis, Decatur & Western, Monou.

The State officers met yesterday and elected Gen. Thomas W. Bennett, of Richmond, to fill the vacancy in the monumental commission, causec 1 by the appointment of bo marshal of tho DisD. M. Rausdell to bo trict of Columbia. THE OPENING AT ACTON. Great Interest Shown in the Camp-Meeting Order of Exercises for the Afternoon. There were busy scenes yesterday at tho Acton camp-grounds. People were crowding into them nil day with the household goods they will need to mako a few weeks' stay comfortable. Tho number already there on the day preceding tho opening of the meeting was larger than ever before. The earnestness the people manifest this year is quite in contrast with that of last year. But few then camo even tho first day, and everything seemed to move slowly. Xow all is quito ditlerent. The new business manager, J. R. Budd, has pushed arrangements, and has the grounds in good condition. Tho auditorium is open and well cleansed. If tho meeting is not a temporal success it will be no fault of the business manager. Much praise is due W. V. Wheeler, who has for months been assisting to make the camp-meeting all that its promoters expect. Dr. Keen is there, ready for the first meeting to-day, at 2:S0 r. m. He has declined invitations to nine other camp-meetings, preferring to help at Acton and make it a power for Indiana Methodism. It is gratifying to tho management that tho meetings aro to have such a liberal patronage from Indianapolis. All the ministers of the Methodist churches in tho city who are not abroad expect to be on the grounds, most of them as permanent residents. The interest abroad shows how the ntlairs of the camp are growing in general favor. A gentleman with a largo family arrived thero from Bloomington, 111., and rented a cottage. The opening sermon today will bo by Dr. Keen. At 4 P. M. children's meeting will occur, at C p. M. young peoplo's meeting is to tako place, at 7;4j Rev. J. II. Smith, evangelist, will preach. The large pavilion, sixty by ninety feet, is set up. Tho hotel is open and in excellent order, through the energv of its prof rietor, Ed Morgan: clerk, John B. Maey. 'rofessor Hudson, Rev. J. S. Bitler, Rev. Joseph Sniith, Dr. Pepper all will be on hand this morning, but the great event this week will be children's day, on Saturday. A Probable Senatorial Vacancy. Stato Senator Henry T. Hudson, of this city, proposes to remove to Seattle, W. T., in a few weeks, for permanent residence, and is being labored with zealously by Democrats, who would like to keep him here. They want to avoid the risk of weakening Democratic strength in tho Legislature by going into an election of his huccessor next year. At last accounts Senator Hudson had concluded that his business interests would not permit him to remain. Election Reward Claimants. Two claimants for election rewards have filed claims beforo the Committee of One Hundred for the prosecution of Hiram W Miller and Smith Williams, convicted of voting insane paupers at the poor-farm precinct. The claimants are W . H. Wall and Robert Harding, of Wayne township, and they want $100 each. The matter has been referred to the attorneys of the executive committee for examination and report.

TAKEN FBOM T1TE DOCKETS

An Unhappy Marriage That Brought Out Serious Charges and Counter-Charges. Frank Evans's Divorce Complaint Never Reaches Trial, as Death Ends His Troubles Details as They Come from the Pacific Coast. The remains of A. F. Evans, formerly of Xoblesville, and once well known in this city, were brought from San Francisco day before yesterday to his old home for buriaL His death closed several years of domestic unhappiness, involving many startling incidents, it is said, by Mrs. Dr. Josephine Du Pre, who for two years was his physician. This lady states that her care of Mr. Evans and attention to his interests, purely in tho course of her profession, have caused her to be suspected of having selfish ends to advance. She was at the Bates Houso yesterday on her return from Xoblesville, where she had gone with tho body, sho having had charge of it from Han Francisco. Today 6he leaves for Cincinnati to consult CoL T. C. Campbell, ono of Mr. Evans's attorneys. From that city, she says it is her purpose to go to San Francisco, and give to the public the details of her connection with her patient. This she deems necessary on account of her becoming involved, to some extent, through professional service in tho inciacnts that have marked tho unhappy relations of Frank Fvans and his wife. It was in Cincinnati, fifteen or sixteen years ago, that Evans married Miss Minnie Maddox. The wedding was noted for all that wealth could contribute in making it a social event, tho bride's father being the senior of Maddox, Hobart Sc. Co.. a firm of distillers. Two years after their marriage the young husband and wife went t o San Francisco, whero Mr. Evans enfaged in the commission business, n this line J. D.Jones and a Mr. Mundy became his partners and the business frospered. For years Mr. and Mrs. Evans ived happily, but thero came after while a disagreement over money matters, tho wife having brought to her husband a considerable sum of monev obtained from her father's estate. Disagreement ,led to quarrels, and quarrels to separation, but before the latter phase of their unfortunate relations ocenrred Mr. Evans was prostrated by paralysis. It is stated that this followed immediately a scene with his wife, in which she demanded a settlement in a withdrawal of her money from tho business. But that allegation and others of more serious character wero brought out in a complaint for divorce which Mr. Evans filed in the San Francisco Superior Court. After setting out specifically his marriage, the birth of his children, and tho origin of his Californiabusiness connection,he stated that Mr. Maddox, the father-in-law, died at his house in San Francisco, leaving his daughter. Mrs. Evans, $o0,000. Of this $30,000 was invested in the business of A. F. Evans &, Co. in San Francisco, and L. O. Maddox & Co., Dayton, Ky. No material unpleasantness occurred until a sister of Mrs. Evans, Effie M. Bruce, arrived at San Francisco from Cincinnati. Evans alleged that she undermined his wife's confidence in him and a quarrel resulted, when tho wife demanded every dollar invested in tho business. He explained that to withdraw suddenly might jeopardize tho business. He ollered to secure her by assigning a $30,000 life insurance policy, and cave her an assignment of his interest in tho Winchester distiliery, of Dayton, which she permitted to lay on the floor for several days after her refusal to accept it. The plaintitt' then recited his continued sickness, which ho attributed in a large degree to deleterious drugs given him by doctors who did not understand his case. Mrs. Dr. Du Pre then took charge of his case, at his solicitation, and thereafter ho alleged his wife's treatment increased in cruelty. Ho wanted to havo his father come out to him. but to this Mrs. Evans objected. His continual worry, aggravated by tho cfi'octs of his sickness, endangered his reason and in time he consented to tho appointment of a guardian of his aflaus at his wife's solicitation. This guardian was J. T. Bonestell. It was further stated by Evans in his complaint tnat his wife threatened to take his children away from him if he should write for his father to come out. He believed that there was a conspiracy against him, and sent for his father. He came and took him to his home. Evans thereafter went Fast and was examined and pronounced sane, a certificate of which, from Dr. Williain A. Hammond, of New York, is on record. Evans stated that ho received letters from his wife's attorneys demanding a separation and charging him with improper conduct with several prominent ladies in Oakland, San Francisco and Sacramento; also, making other foul charges against him. He returned with his counsel to meet theso charges and claimed tho custody of the children, who, ho claims, were being educated in tho Catholic faith, against his wishes. His wife hearing of his return, sailed for Honolulu the day before ho arrived. The wife sailed under the name of Mrs. Darling, and Evans says he sent two men to Honolulu who saw his daughter, who said she wanted to write her father, but her mother would not permit her. Evans asserted that his former attorney and his business partners turned against him; that ho was not served with a notice of the hearing on which he was declared ri .i ai .1 : u .. incompetent; iuiu ou iiieuu prucecuiugs ut was robbed of his rights as n man and reduced to tho level of an idiot, all because he was ill and yet would not yield to his wife's demand to make over to her a life insurance policy of S30.000 and certain notes, Mrs. Evans to these charges tiled a crosscomplaint, in which she alleges cruel treatment and a violation of marriage vows. She denied tho allegations of her husband upon these issues. A motion was made by the wife for a change of venue, but the death of plaiutin" has closed the proceedings in court. Evans, in 16S7, made his will, and in that ho left his wife a topaz ring and his forgiveness. His life insurance policy of $20,000, to which figure it had been reduced from $30,000, was left in equal shares to the three children. There is about 20,000 in other property he bequeathed, in like manner, to his children. Previous to this he had a settlement with his wife, who got S21.500, tho houso and furniture in which they lived, and his interest in the business of A. F. Evans & Co. The Weeds Munt Go. At tho request of the Board of Health, City Attorney Taylor is preparing an ordinance to present to the City Council at its next meeting, compelling property-holders who havo vacant lots within the city limits to cut down all weeds. If, alter notice has been served, the orders are not obeyed, tho work will be done under the supervision of the street commissioner, and at the expense of the property-holders. The Car-Axle Trust. The members of the Car-axle Trust held a well-attended meeting attho Bates Houseyesterday, and considered various matters connected with the business of that organization.
