GREETING TO ME. IIALSTEAD

Republican Clubs of Cincinnati Unite in Welcoming Him Ilome from-Europe. In Reply to an Address He Touches Ligntly Upon liis rejection bj the Senate, and Says lie Will Obey the Call of the People, Cincinnati, Aug. 3. A reception to Mr. Murat Halstead, of the Commercial Gazette, upon hi9 return from Europe was given to-night by the Republican clubs of Hamilton county, in Music Hall. The great hall was tastefully decked with flags and streamers of the national colors. The lower floor was entirely given up to the clubs, while the dress circle and balcony were tilled with ladies and their escorts, Tho clubs marched from their respective quarters, and as they entered with their bands, tho enthusiasm of the crowd was kept at a white heat. The stage was occupied by a largo number of gentlemen designated to act as vice-presidents. Tho entrance of Mayor Mosby escorting the distinguished-looking ligure of Mr. Halstead was simultaneous with the coming of one of the largest clubs, bearing a transparency with the legend, "Halstead, Welcome Home, A wild scene of waving of hats and handkerchiefs, and of people rising and cheering, followed. The appearance of Governor Foraker renewed the enthusiastic welcome. Mr. Halstead never appeared in better health, and with a trifle of nervousness at such demonstration, he took his seat beside the Mayor. When all the clubs had been 6eated, Mayor Mosby made a welcoming addret, containing allusions to tho honored guest's fearlessness as a journalist and a suggestion of the usefulness of such a quality in the Senate of the United States. When MrIlalstead arose to reply ho had a most flattered reception, which contin ued several minutes, during which the assemblage of live thousand arose and cheered and cheered again. He said: I am both era tilted and surprised at tho mani festation before me to-night, and I can answer the question as to how I am by saying I am very well Indeed. Concerning the action of the Senate In my case, which his Honor has referred to. 1 have no grievances that I desire to have the publio concerned about. The action by tho Sen ate was, so rar as tne itepuMicans opposed me, largely owing to misapprehensions which I was unable &t the time to correct. There was also evidence in some cases of personal feeling that did not do me justice, but, however intended on the part ox those who rejected me. I cheerfully and sincerely recognize the fact that they did me a kindness. I have been abroad on my own hook, and have accomplished the mission most important to myself, the restoration of mv health. The President had no difficulty in find ing a suitable man for the place In the lion. Wm. v aitor rneips, a gentleman admiraoiy quail nea to discharge the duties of that onice, as has been proven by his excellent work in the Samoan coo Terence. Touching the inouirv as to whether I am a candidate for the United States Senate. I do not wish to have that urged upon the people. That is a matter for consideration after the Republican victory, which I confidently expect in November by the triumphant re-election of Gov. t oraser, and the election of a Keoubllcau Gen eral Assembly. I do not think it possible for the people of Ohio to permit the law-iuakinjr rower of the State to pass Into the hands of the Demo crats. There is nothing in the recent history of the party to warrant such action. When this republican Legislature is elected, if the Repub licans In it shall think that I would be a trood representative man that In their roodjudirment It would be a good thing to eleet me a Ucnator of the Lnlted states I should regard it as a great honor, and attempt to perform the duties ox the office to the best of my ability. But the object to be aimed at, however, and which cannot be too clearly and strongly stated, is not any Individ ual triumph, but to make sure that Ohio shall be hereaftsr represented in the Senate of the United States by two Republicans. That is an object worthy of any Republican's ambition. Ho per sonal ambition should be permitted to interfere witn tuat omect. It is my nope to help to win a clean 1'epubUcan victory in a straight Republican light, and to make the tight on the ground of sustaining the national administration of President Harrison and the State administration of Governor Foraker. The more I have traveled abroad, and the more I have become acquainted with the peoplo and affairs of other nations, tho higher has beeu my appreciation of the conditions of life in our country, where, however diverse may be the fortunes of the people, their opportunities are far greater than in any forehm country. Sneak ing for myself, while understanding that we have no occasion to be sorry lor the Germans, tho French, or the English, who occupy some of the most favored portions of tho globe and have at tained a splendid civilization. I must sav tnat I have an unfeigned preference both for the climate and the diet of the United btates of America. Mr. Halstead's address was listened to with interest and frequently applauded. Mr. W. II. Parham, on behalf of the colored people of Hamilton county, and of Ohio, made a brief address, telling why me coioreu people loiioweci witu prayers tne snip tnat carried mm abroad, and welcomed his restored return. It was, he said, because the colored people were not cuiltv of ingratitude, and Mr. Halstead had al ways been the colored man's friend. Mr. Parham is a colored man, a teacher in the public schools of Cincinnati. Mr. M. A. Jacobi, of the Froie Prcsse, followed with a welcoming speech on behalf of tne press. It was after 10 o'clock when Governor Foraker arose to mako his address. Tho bovernor said his duty was an unnecessary one. He was to welcome Mr. Halstead on behalf of the Republicans of Ohio, but Mr. mistcaa knew no was welcome long before this time. He went on to speak of tho extent and earnestness of this demonstration, such as was seldom aceorded to auy one not a great Hlitl3UIU Di m KU11UC1. Xtl, UU 1X19 1611110. ne asKea. nat navo I done to merit a re ception!" The Governor said Mr. Halstead was the only liepubucan in Ohio who would ask that question. He went on to tell why Mr. Halstead was welcome. cuing as reasons tue nigu re gar a tne people had for his courage and honest r. for tho purity and simplicity of his life, for his intelligent patriotism, and for his complete and entiro Republicanism. It was fortunate that his return, restored to health, is at this time when an important election is approaching. It was an election when Mr. Halstead's sturdy service was needed to assist in blotting out the most foul taint upon the legislative action of Ohio the corrupt election of Henry B. Payne to the United States benate. Mr. Halsteads service. said he, can be counted upon to assist in making the next Legislature Republican. Drifting into political matters the Governor spoke of the marked reform in the election law of Ohio in the past four years. and of the police force, both of which he claimed as results of Republican legisla tion. In conclusion he touched upon the recent manifestations of lawlessness on the part of certain people, and repeated his assertion made in his recent letter to Mavor Mosbv that obedience to law is the lirst duty of citizenship. Referring to the warning that in taking this ground he would oliend the German voter, ho said he had no fear of that. lie knew the German voter. and the German character; he was himself of German blood, ana ho served thronch the war with German soldiers. He knew the German citizen to be true, and patriotic, and a lover of justice. Throuchout his address the assembly gave liberal applause, wnicn was especially markea in his eulogy of Mr. Halstead, and in his declaration in favor of the support, of the law. Losses by Fire.

Lawyers who are interested iu a legal controversy touching mu nicipal matters in this city nave discovered that the actions of the Fort Wayne City Council since May la.t may bo illegal. The uueaticn arises iu mis way: Aimc regular .nay election last, Mr. Huras was voted into this Council from the the Thursday following the election, de-i-hrml Mr Hum elf.rtll from lha Havmvtt

ward, and at the same time announced

the creation of tho new Tenth ward. Mr. Burns by this act was legislated out of the Seventh ward, aud Ueorge Gordon elected in his Slace. There Is a record of his election from the eventh ward, but none of his election from the

Tenth ward, because that precinct had no existice when he was elected. Hums, therefore, has no legal right to it in the Council at all, and his vote, so the lawyers claim, renders null and void every act or the municipal government since last May. MYSTERIOUS EXPLOSION. Alleged Attempt to Blow Up a Pride Express Messenger Killed and Car Destroyed. Montreal, Aug. 3. When the train for Quebec on the Graud Trunk railroad had passed St. Lambert's, after going through the Victoria bridge, last night, au explosion occurred in the express car by which a messenger named Kogers was killed, the car was completely wrecked and the express matter destroyed. Rumors are afloat that it was an attempt to blow up the Victoria bridge, and was delayed too long. The train was on its way to Quebec, Portland and Ilalifux, and consisted of seven passenger coaches, a Pullman car, sleeping car, and smoking, baggage and ex press cars, the last named being next to tho tender. The train was tilled withnassengers, among whom were General Middleton ana General superintendent otepnenson, of tne Grand Trunk railroad. When the report of the explosion was heard a panic was about to ensue, but this was averted by a brakeman named Jones, who rushed through the train to the burning car ana aextrousiy uucoupled it and the tender and engine and let them dash np the roaa, wnere tne en cine-driver, who bravely stood at his post amid the most intense heat, ran them upon a siding at the end of the track. No cause can be assigned for the accident, though everything in the car was of a very intlammable nature, among the good9 being a quantity of lire-works for the Halifax carnival. The fact, however, that the tireworks did not explode until long after the lire was under way, shows that the ex plosion did not originate in tnem. 1 ne express and railway people attach no im portance to the assertion that an attempt was made to blow up victoria Dnuge.

"Father Nathan Chase, the famous 'Mlllerlte," who gave away several thousand dollars' worth of property in 1844, when he thoutht the world was comlncr to an end, died recently at the age of eighty-nine years. In 1844, when the time was definitely set for the final wind-up of earthly affa irs, thousands got ready with their robes to make tho ascension to heaven. In Salem, several hundred assembled at Liberty II ill, a large number having on the ascension robes. Thero, In much excitement, but after hours of waiting no sound was heard from Gabriel's horn.and the assemblage dispersed, the followers of Miller not losing their faith, how ever, in the Immediate coming of Christ, but be lieving t hat a mistake had been made in the date. Father Chae was very active throughout the meeting, and from that time up to the dav of his death believed that the end of the world was near at hand. For several years after the ovent at Liberty Hill he worked at carpentering on week days and preached on Sunaavit. u lvlsed a time chart 6howing when the world would come to an end, his computation bein taken principally from the book of Daniel and the book of Revelations. His last charts show that the world will come to an end durimr Octoler of the present year. He was one of the best .Bible students in the country, and was deemed a leader in the Advent denomination.

AX INDIANA SUMMER RESORT. A Flacc of Rest and Recreation for Mind and Body in the Martin County Hills. Special Correspondence Indianapolis Journal. Indian Springs, Martin Co., Ind., July 29. It is often asked, where is Indian Springs? Find Martin county on the map; locate 'Trinity Springs," and about two miles northwest of that rude resort you will find it. You need not come here to dress, as pride and fashion have no recognition. Mother Hubbards may fan tho porch floors without observation dud shirt 6leevea aud suspenders can promenade without remark. People come here to have a free-and-easy time; to eat the sauie hash and to drink from the same living fountain of sulphur. Here you may play cards, roll tenpins, pitch quoits, play croquet or mingle in the mazy dance, in which latter amusement old and young engage every evening, Sunday excepted, till abont 11 o'clock. What kind of water is itf It is about as strong as that of Martinsville, and is

said to bo more palatablo than that of French Lick or West Baden, not beinir 60 pungent, but getting in its work all the same give it time. One coming here with stomach. liver, kidney, bowels, catarrh orfunctional heart troubles will, after two or three days, be surprised at his appetite, and gradually will find that his disorganized insides are beginning to narmomze witn each other, and disposed t6 declare the "strike oH" and go to work at the old wages. What kind of a spot is Indian Springs? It is very beaut if nk. Look from the lofty and shady hill where the hotel is located, in any direction, and you will see a grand perspective of scenery which iills you with erpetuai pleasure, a winding pat away eads from the hotel to the springs at tho base of the hill, on the edge of Sulphur creek, not quite so steep as Jacob's ladder, but as full perhaps of angei:c creatures constantly descending and ascending for tho life-giving waters. IVUlibKlUU Ui AttiO UUC3 UUO gOM V C1.V cood. indeed, considering the isolation of the springs from any center of luxury. wnat one most longs lor in cities is nere supplied in abundance, viz., fried chicken. and three times a day- if one wants it. The best comment on the table is the tremendous rush towards the dining-room at the sound of the second belL Not -that any one is afraid of losing a seat, but rather because the appetite will bice no delay. At the sound of the bell every one jumps as if from a galvanic shock, screaming, aud laughing, and jostling towards the tempt ing board. There is a daily mail from Shoals, and the little postoifice is besieged every evening for letters and papers from "sweet home." and answers are sent back by the morning mail. Who owns the springs? Alfred Guthrie, an enterprising merchant and farmer, re siding at Tunnelton. on the 0. & M. railroad. He purchased the grounds about a month ago of the Dobbins brothers, for $40,000. The number of acres included in the purchase is over two hundred, and the round hill in the center, ou which the hotel is located, embraces an in closure of fortylive acres, covered with beautiful aud shady trees. The proprietor took immediate possession of the property, placing it in charge of his three sons-in-law, with Homer Quthrie, his youngest son, as store-keeper. When will the springs be connected with the railway world! In about a month. The long tunnel of the . & R. railroad, abont two miles from here, is about completed, and the cars will run within three-quarters of a mile of the hotel. Notwithstanding the unfavorable weath er, the hotel keeps full to its utmost capacity. There is always some way of stowing away any surplus arrivals till vacancies occur for better accommodations. How about mosquitoes and other pests? Thero were some mosquitoes in Jnne. but they have all died off. Perhaps the dragonny has made navoc ox tnem. At an events, they no longer bore ns with their serenades. We had a good gospel sermon in tho danc ing hall, Suuday afternoon, from Kev. Mr. Heavenndge. of Washington, ind., which was highly appreciated by a good audience. The fact is, one should bring enough religion with him to last n few weeks, for I am sorry to say that preachers are scarce. It is a startling fact that after a diligent search on bunuay, not a single copy of the holy Bible could be found about tne hotel. liible societies, please take notice. i. ir. k. MONEY BLOWN AWAY.
