The tenth annual harvest-home festival was celebrated yesterday afternoon, at 2 o'clock, by the Sunday-school of the First Baptist Church, and, -when the members of the school had been floated, the largo auditorium and galleries -were completely filled. Everywhere there were signs of a bountiful harvest. Beginning at the door, along both sides of the gallery, at intervals. . were upright sheaves of oats, tied with flowers. From the side lights were hanging baskets, 'and about each pillar were , branches of autumn leaves. In the corners, under the gallery, were huge cornstalks and golden rod. At the right was a large pile of vegetables, while, finishing the circuit, was' the organ, choir-seats and pulpit, beautiful with fruits and flowers in profusion. A sickle, basket and large anchor covered the center of the organ, a star on one side and a harp on the other. Across the front of the pulpit was a harp of asters about four feet high, an open book of flowers bearing "Light of the Y. P. B.C. E." in purple immortelles, a smaller harp of roses, and then the great attraction, an obelisk of mosaics, the latter being made of russet, red and green apples, red and green peppers, white onions, grecu and white beans, cranberries, rasins, red and yellow tomatoes, the whole surmounted by a squash and grapes. It was a work of art, and most tastefully put together. It was about live feet high, its base being two feet square. The exercises consisted of a 'song service called "Under the Palms," which 'was a series of solos, duets, quartets and choruses by the school and choir, with organ and orchestral accompaniment. Rev. W. F. Taylor, the pastor, made a brief address appropriate to the occasion, and n series of presentations occurred. The Y. P. S. U. E. book was given to Mrs. Taylor by the society, the large harp to Mr. YV. C. Smock by the choir and the small harp to Mr. S.O. Pickens by h:s class. The exercises closed with the benediction by the pastor. Amateuicnt Notes. The engagement of the Ferguson & Mack Comedy Company in that very laughable Irish farce, "McCarthy's Mishaps," will begin at English's to-night, and will include four performances. The sketch is only calculated to amuse for the evening, and no other claim is mado for it. The piece furnishes a wide scopo for the introduction of some very funny . business, and the company is much above the average. Barney Ferguson, whohcads.tho combination, is a comedian of wide reputation, and his part iu "McCarthy's Mishaps'' is one that 'gives him an excellent chanco to display his talent. "Hans, the Boatman," as plaved by Charles Arnold, is underlined for English's during the last half of the week. The Grand Opera-house will offer no attractions this week. The Austin Australian Noveltv Company, the leading organization of its character in the country, will begin a week's engagement at the Park Theater this afternoon. The combination is in every respect a firstclass one, and gives a performance of the best kind. The list of people includes somo of the best on tho vaudeville stage, among them M'lle Ahnee. known as the human fly. The specialty features introduced are all in keeping with the general character of the show. 2taw bedroom sets at Wm. L. Elder's.
COBURN SHOULD BE MAYOR
A Reason Why His Election to that Office Would Be of Advantage to the City. Commissioner De Baiter's Plain Statement of How Coy Got the City's Stone-Figures that Still Bother the Party of Eefom. One of tho advantages of having General Coburn to preside over this city as its Mayor," said a formor resident of Indianapolis yesterday, "will be that wo shall have as the city's chief executive a man who is not only thoroughly known at home, but who is well and favorably known abroad. During his busy and useful career he ha3 been thrown in contact with the prominent men of all sections of tho country, and his straightforward and vigorous personality has made itself felt in such a way that there are few men who have met him who do not retain a clear impression of his force and reliability. As a practicingjawyer, as a judge on the bench, as a commander in the field, and as a legislator of long experience, both in State and national councils, he has not only achieved a reputation at homo for marked ability and spotless integrity, but there are few intelligent business men in any section of tho Union who do not know something of him and of his work, and who would be perfectly willing to place full coulideuccand faith in him on the strength of his past record. The 'consequence of this will bo that, should this city have occasion hereafter, as it has had in the past, to invite the consideration" of outsiders to its advantages, or to ask tho co-operation of the people of other States in any project in which it is interested, a statement bearing the signature of Mayor Coburn would carry with it a widespread force and effect. In most communities all over the Union there would bo found men to say to an inquirer, 4I know Coburn. What ho tells you you can rely upon. Write to him for any further information you desire concerning Indianapolis or its surroundings.' TtisuothingtoJndgeSullivan's discredit to say that were he Mayor of this city no such force or credit would be given to his otiicial statements, for ho is comparatively an unknown man. His brief term of service by appointment on tho bench added nothing to his standing as a citizen or a pnblic representative. It has even been suggested that his timidity at a time when prompt, vigorous and decided' action was required, added considerably to theburdens of this community. Certain it is that in all the years ho has lived in this city ho has not impressed his individuality on anybody outside his immediate circle, and comparatively few pcoplo know him by sight, while a much less number have tho possession of his personal acquaintance. Nor is this stato of things likely to bo changed, should he by any perad venture be elovated" to the position of tho mayoralty. His administration of tho trust as compared with General Coburn's management would carry with it as little confidence, as would tho control of a three-decker by a midshipman, when compared with tho direction of a veteran commander who had demonstrated his ability to guide and direct, and was known of all men to bo equal to any exigency likely to arise. Tho people of this city would mako a great mistake were they to neglect iho opportunity afforded them at this time to avail themselves of General Coburn's services as Major. He not only has tho personal qnalitics which wouldmakehimanetlicient otlicer, but he has had a training and experience which would largely lessen the probability of mistakes at home; and his liberality .and public spirit, joined to his favorable acquaintance abroad, would largely inure to the benefit of the city if he wero chosen as its chief executive and representative." Democratic Temporary Loans. A good deal has been said by tho Democratic organs concerning the temporary loans made by Republican municipal administrations to bridge over the deficits caused by Democratic mal-administration and to protect tho. city's credit from impairment. In view of these statements a reference to tho official reports will not bo without interest as showing how tho people to whom the News and Sentinel propose to turn over tho city's tiuaucesmanaged them when they had control, and tho utter lack of business principles displayed by the Democratic "reformers" of 1874-70. The record shows that tho Republicans turned over tho nin of $259,(770.53 to tho Democratic Council when they took charge. May 13, 1S74. Now let us see how long it lasred. On Jnly 13, 1874, tho Council authorized the finance committee to borrow the sum of $100,000 on city warrants to fall duo April 1, 1875. Three days thereafter tho warrants were sold to W. H. English at a discount of 10 per cent., nettine .GtX). And on Aug. 20, 1871, $50,000 more were sold, as the ollicial report shows, "at a discount of 10 per cent, and five-eighths of 1 per cent, commission." Then on Sept. 21, 1874, $50,000 more were sold; Sept. .1874, 100,000 more; Nov. 12, 1874, $50,0CKmore. and Nov. 17, 1874, 50,000 more, AH but one $0,000 lot . were sold at a discount of 10 per cent or more, that one being shaved to 9 per cent. In addition to these $400,000 of temporary loan bonds, S200.000 of twenty-year bonds, drawing 7 3-10 per cent, interest, payable semiannually, were also issued on the 1st day of July, 1874. The financial condition of "the city got into such a demoralized stato by the end of tho first year of Democratic rule that they raised the tax levy to 1.19 on .the $100 of values, and that, too, when tho taxable assessments were at the highest point ever reached in the history of tho city $C9,25t,749. But even this did not prevent them from going on with their reckless expenditures, and piling up the debt, for at less than the Republicans bequeathed to them two years before. Street Department Slanders. Street Commissioner De Kuiter was found by. a Journal reporter Saturday evening a good deal incensed over statements made concerning him in the issues of Demo cratic city journals of that day. "I am a good deal more inclined to set myself right . by bringing a couple of libel suits than by talking through the newspapers," he said, "but if you want any more facts in the matter of Coy's conversion of city property I am ready at all times to give you any information in my possession. In the first place, tho car-load of broken stone which Coy admits ho - has taken was never in my possession. As I have said before, it was loaded by the city work-house people and placed on the switch, in tho possession of tho railroad, without any notice to mo. Coy could havo carried oil a car-load of paper belonging to the News, with the assistance of his railroad friends, just as easily as he carried oil' that stone, and there would be just as much sense in holding me responsible for a loss of that kind as f or the stone referred to. To say, that I ought to know tho whereabouts of and guard all property prepared for shipment to my department is absurd. It is not lonir since that a car-load of cedar blocks intended for us was lost, and it took the railroad folks nearly six weeks, with the aid of their tracers, to find it. Nobody thought of holding rue responsible for that; but tho News would like to hold me responsible for tho car-load of stone Coy took. All that could be required of me was proper diligence in trying to recover the loss when apprised of it, and that diligence I have used. Tho first thing was to get the proof that Coy took it. and that I got by his own admission after hunting him unsuccessfully at his residence hero, and his road-house cast of the city. When' I found that he had spread the stone on tho streets in his ward it was manifestly impracticable for mo to gather it up again, and 1 consulted the city attorney as to tho course I 6hould pursue. He advised me today that all that could be done was to sue Coy for the conversion of the city property, ana in pursuance of his advice I Kent Coy, to-day, a letter. Here is a copy of it. "Mr. Simeon Coy: 'Dear 81r I havo positive proof that you have taken, for your own use. broken stone, the property of the city of ludianapolls, without any authority from me or any person connected with

th!3ofrice. I estimate the valno.of the stone taken at about Jr05. I demand an hnme'liate' return of ptono to the above value, or payment to the treasurer of tho above amount In cash. An Immediate compliance will save you trouble. "Yours re3pect fully, D. De Kuitek. 'lKDiAXAit)Lis, Sept. 2d. Street Com'r. What I shall do further will depend upon tho advice of the city attorney. In any event I shall demonstrate that the insinuation the News makes, that I am in collusion with Coy, is without any foundation in fact." "What about the News's statement that you have swelled the street department for political purposes this month, and that you have changed the method of paying the street force so that their money passes through your bands!" 'Uotli statements are untrue. Tho payrolls show that wo had a much larger number of men on our rolls during tho spring cleaning than we have at present. The average number for the four weeks ending March 23 last was 174, and for tho four weeks ending last Thursday it was 120. As for changing the manner of paying the men, I have never drawn a dollar belonging to any employe, unless at his special request, and -for his convenience. Where tho men are working at a long dis-. tance from tho county treasurer's office, they have sometimes asked me to draw tho amount of their warrants to save them the journey to the court-house. When they, are working in that neighborhood, or can conveniently collect themselves what is coining -to them, they present their warrants, in person. Democratic Sunday Meditations. A good many of the hours that should have been devoted yesterday to a consideration of tho infinities were put in by tho Democrats in endeavoring to fix up recent temporal calamities. How to reconcile a claim of support for the $250 ordinance with a solid Democratic anti-$250 ordinance in Council took the place of the question of repentance after death, and tho likelihood of Colonel Hicklin getting a sound Leathering in the Seventeenth ward was considered in lien of predestination. As for tho doctrine of a personal devil it was entirely overlooked in the Twenty-third ward, where Markey and his friend Hudson were under consideration, and altogether tho Sunday meditations of the Democracy .were of a profane and perplexing character. TVbat Outsiders Are Saying. Shelby Kepublican: We sympathize with our esteemed friends of the Indianapolis News in its efforts to get reform at Indian
apolis through tho medium of the Democratic party. While it writes praises with one hand it has to hold its nose with the other. New Albany Tribune: Tho Indianapolis News says: "Indinanapolis is on the eve of an era of progress, and never needed good and progressive government more." Which is an excellent reason why tho News should support General Coburn for Mayor, instead of opposing him. Greenfield Republican: The course of tho Indianapolis News in its support of Sullivan, candidate for Mayor, against that gallant soldier and honest, abla, and public-spirited citizen. Gen. John Coburn, is hard to explain. It soems to prefer Coyism, and to assist the saloon element in reducing the saloon tax from $250 to good government by respectable men. Muncie Times: Coy steals street material from the city of Indianapolis and uses it in making votes for himself in the Eighteenth ward- Thereupon the Indianapolis News finds the street commissioner is tho man to censure, and it so overwhelms him with abuse that Coy's offense seems obscured and almost palliated. There is a strong llavor of Coyisin in the columns of the News these days. Huntington Herald: Tho two Candidates for office in the city of Indianapolis who aro best known are General Coburn, Kepublican candidato for Mayor, and Sim Coy, Democratic candidate for Councilman. Both have served terms in prison. General Coburn was a prisoner in Libby, in tho service of the national government, and Sim Coy completed a term of service for the State in Michigan City. GOSSIP ABOUT TI1E HOTELS. Hungary's System of AVine Inspection The Adulterations in Cannet) Corn. V. E. Tagliaferro, a" Hungarian of titled rank, was registered at the Bates yesterday, having come to this country in the interests of tho Hungarian wine market. When met by a reporter he was quite ready and willing to talk about tho business he represented, as well as tho customs in his native land. ''The Hungarian wines," he said, "aro the only ones on the markets of thejworld which are inspected and guaranteed to bo pure by the government officials. There was a time when our wines were being sold here, that tho attention of the Hungarian Minister of Agriculture was called to the fact that great quantities of spurious Hungarian wines wero being sold in the United States as the genuine product. Now. there is nothing of which we feel more proud than the reputation of our wines, and the government quickly decided to put a check on the sale of adulterated Hungarian wines here. So they stationed representatives in New York city, under tho protection of the Austrian minister at Washington and the Austrian consul at New York, whose business it is to receive the wines after government inspection. An agency was established with branches all over this country." "What is the method of inspection in Hungary!" "The govornment officials seek by every means to foster and encourage the culture of wines of a high grade, and to that end tho world-famous wine-cellars were estab-, lished in 13uda-Pestb. These cellars, which are the largest in the world, aro under the management of tho government, the officials being responsible to the Minister of Argiculture. Any Hungarian wine-grower may send his wines on consignment to these cellars provided they can stand various exiiaustlve tests as to their purity and quality. From these cellars the wine is sold in bottles only, which bear tho government label. This label is recognized thioughout Europe as an unquestionable guarantee of excellence." "Does the government receive any revenue from theso wines!" "Only so far as the expenses of keeping the cellars aro concerned. Tho government did 'not take tho wino market under control in order to make money, but to satisfy the people and to sustain the reputation of Hungarian products in tho world's markets." August S. Royal, of one of the largest corn-canning establishments in tho country, was at tho Hates yesterday morning. He was asked by a reporter as to the extent of adulteration that may be practiced nowadays in the preparation of corn for the markets. 4The fact is," he replied, "ono hardly knows what he is getting when he buys a can of corn nowadays. Ihere isn't so much adulteration, as one would naturally think, thatisinthepreparationof the corn. In other words, the adulteration that would prove injurious, to tho human system is not very apalling. Hut tho worst feature about canned con is the great amount of inferior grain that is used. A large per cent of that used is what is commonly known ae field corn. It makes about the same appearance in bulk as sugar corn, but tho taste Is at once noticable for its coarseness. Field corn is much cheaper, of course, and it makes the profits of the business a great deal heavier. This fact accounts, to a verj largo measure, for the freedom that so many canners tako in palming off a poor quality of stock on the public" "Indianapolis has natnral gas in great abundance, but she hasn't caught tle latest idea in that line,' remarked a Huflalo man at the Grand, last night. "I have seen houses in the East, in cities where they have gas, which aro both beautiful and made more comfortable by a new kind of fire-place. Instead of having a grate or an open stove, with pieces of broken fire clay and similar contrivances, a stone or tile hearth, Shout four feet square, is laid right in tho center of the lloor. Right in the middle of this is a basket-shaped iron crate, which is filled with fire-clay, and under it all the gas is fed. The whole thing is surrounded by a brass railing, and the efiect is most pleasing to the eye. No Hue is used, for, it is claimed, natural gas needs no exit when burning. And this plan is a better ono for heating the entire room, because the heat radiates in every direction."
COMMUNING mm THE HHIT8.
Prof. Tan Horn Thinks the Newspapers nave Not Given nim Proper Credit. The spiritualistic meetings at Mansur's Hall, which appear to bo run as a tender for regular week-day fees at the Enterprise Hotel, brought together another largo au dience of people, who evidently pay little heed to the Hoosier poet's admonition that "tho goblins '11 git ye if ye don't watch out." The president announced that more money was needed to properly carry on the work, and this need was significantly borne in upon the audience bv fdueing "Come, ye disconsolate." Prof. Van Horn delivered what was somewhat extravagantly termed "a lecture " the subiect beine "A Medium's Experience," the lecture being chiefiy re markable for what it did not say, tnero oeing many words and few ideas. . ,' Mrs. M. M. Boone, a local magnetic healer, gave an exhibition of her powers, which was better in quality than that of the male operator. Mrs. Hoone discovered a lady in the audience who acknowledged to have been recently much disturbed by the persistent attentions of a highly objectionablo male spirit The medium announced that the spirit was that of the South-side saloonkeeper, Schrader, but that he now gave assurance that he would depart and never trouble her more. The lady was thankful, and said so. , , Professor Van Horn said the papers had not treated him fairly in reporting spirits un recognized at tne meeting a wee. a,u. and said that the shades of William and Ellen Crosby bad been acknowledged, and a lady in the audience had said that Henry ton also set right, as they, too, had been recognized, lie, however, failed to say Anvthinff about the John Tutewiler ghost. As Mr. Tuto wiler is in tho postoffice ho feels a htttle skittish o' nights with a phantom double waltzing about in the gloaming. The remainder of his tests were of like character with those he had given at previous meetings, with the exception of two or three specimens of magnetic healing, or, more properly, mesmerism. m s 1 MINOR CITY MATTEIIS. Local Kewt Notes. The Presbyterian Asssociation wiU meet this morning at half past 10 o'clock at the Second Presbyterian Church. The committees appointed to arrange for the coming annual meeting of tho W. H. M. S. of the M: E. Church will meet, this afternoon, at Meridian-street Church at 3 o'clock. The secretary of the Board of Metropolitan Police requests that the persons who were given special badges for use at the State fair grounds return them to him at the Central police station. There have been numerous complaints lodged lately with the police concerning the provoking theft of newspapers left at the doors of subscribers. Theso minor depredations have been committed . by small boys, and yesterday ono of them, named Charles Ilaynes, thirteen years of age, was .caught in the act by W. S. Woods, of No. 14 North Pennsylvania street, and handed over to tho police on a charge of petit larceny. Personal and Society. Mr. and Mrs. Oran Perry will leave today for tho East, to spend a few weeks. Mr. Louis Martin has returned from a trip to Duluth and Oconomowoc, Wis. Miss T. L.

While here Mr.'Black will appear in concert and give his old friends an opportunity to hear his voice. Mr. Nevil CrowderandMiss Myrtle Crawford, daughter, of Capt. W. IL Crawford, of Sullivan, were married yesterday at noon by Kev. McBride, of Crawfordsville, at the residence of tho bride's sister, Mrs. John W, Hughes, on New York street. Tho couple left on the evening train and will arrive in Sullivan in time to tako breakfast in their new home, which the groom had previously furnished. A special to the Chicago Tribune of yesterday 6ays: John V. Schuman, aged twenty-one, of Lebanon. . 111., and Ella Stewart, aged eighteen, of Kansas City, Mo., came to Danville early this morning and wero married by Judge Evans. The young couple separated immediately after the ceremony, tho bride going to Kansas City and the groom returning to Lebanon. It was their intention to keep the marriage a secret from everyone, including immediate relatives, until the completion of the bride's education, which, it was expected, would not bo less than two years. She is an only daughter of James Stewart, who is reported to be a wealthy architect at Kansas City. Felix Schuman, father of tho groom, is a politician of considerable local notoriety. Miss Stewart has been visiting at Indianapolis, where she met young Schuman. It was a case of love at first sight.
