CLOSING UP THE CAMPAIGN

E. W. JIalford and lion. C. W. Fairbanks Address Big Meetings at New Castle. Ilcn. J. 31. Brtler at Xobleaville Great Demonttration of Farmers at Bluffton Kousics EepnMican Rallies at Other Cities. Special to t Inflianapolia Journal. Xkw Castle, Soy. 1. The Republican campaign in Henry county was brought to a very successful close, yesterday, with two rousing meetings in this city one in the afternoon and one at night Hon. U. V. Fairhanks took a epecial train from Indianapolis in order to meet his appointment at 2 p. M. He vras greeted by a fine audience and made a Tery able and effective speech. Uen.w Daniel W. Voorhees received considerable-attention at his hands, and his falsifying on the stump was shown up in glaring colors. In the evening, Hon. E. W. Halford. who was on his way home to vote, stopped oft and addressed the largest audience ever packed into the larae court-room, delighting everybody, convincing many and converting others to the cause of .good government. The Democrats have not had a single speech made in the county, but have depended wholly upon slander of the Republican candidates and their friends to win votes. Their favorite scheme w is to say to the ' unternncd mossbacks that the Republicans created the wholo of the State debt, passed the new election law, by which they are prevented from selling out on election day, and that President Harrison is personally responsible for the freezes last spring which caused the short wheat crop of this year and the drought which cut the corn crop short. Henry county will do her whole duty on Tuesday. Big 3Ieetlng at Mnncle. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. . Mux ci e, Xov. 1. E. W. Halford. President Harrisons private eecretary; Hon. J. W. Lorett, candidate for Attorney-general, and Rov. J. M. Townsend were orators atamoDter Republican mass-meeting in the city to-night. Mr. Halford was labor iug with a severe cold, but delivered an excellent speech, eulogizing the McKinley bill, and making points in its favor that . brought forth round after round of appl-iuso. He touched on reciprocity, then the silver bill, csd devoted the remainder of his talk to the manner in which tLu titato debt had grown under Democratic management and tho condition of the State benevolent institutions, now under the control of Democratic political hacks and ward underlings. His speech was xnll of vigor and effectiveness and impressed the audience,' which was composed largely of workinumcn from the numerous factories, lie was applauded at every point and completely opened tho eyes of the many Democrats that attended. Messrs. Lovett and Townsend followed in short speeches with much enthusiasm. Dr. Fletcher, an exsupcrintendent of the Central Isane Asylum, who was turned out because he would not make that institution a political machine, closed the meeting with a few remarks, in which he denounced the present management of the State benevolent institutions. This ends the campaign in this county. Hon. J. M. 1 Sutler at NobleavlUe. Special to the luIianaiolls Journal. NoiiLKsviLLK. Nov. 1. Hon. John M. Hutler. at th court-house in this city this afternoon, delivered the closing speech of the campaign to tho largest and most enthusiastic audience that has assembled in this county this year. Sir. Uutler, in his master'y Kt.vle, dealt with nil tho various issues of the campaign, showing conclusively that of the vast debt that now hangs over Indiana not one cent thereof is by any possibility chargeable to tho Republican party, and that no long as the Democrats maiiituiu control of the Legislature with their system of linancierin the dobt will go. on increasing at tho enormous rato of from 00,000 to S1.5CO,Ono per annum. He exposed and denounced the infamous gerrymander, which has the etiect of disfranchising seventyfive thousand voters of Indiana, and perpetuates the present outrageous, cruel and inhuman mismanagement of the State charitable institufions. Ho also demonstrated huw the protective tariff reduces tho prices of articles produced or manufactured in the United States, and said that the McKinley bill affords more protection to American farmers than any tariff bill ever passed. He closed by contrasting the American eagle with the rooster, and the Mgnirication of each as the emblem of the ienpective parties. Tho speech had a good effect, and there was much applause. Double Meeting at fUisliTllle. Special to the iLthanauolis Journal. Kusuvillf, Nov. 1. The campaign in Rush county was closed to-night. The city was full of people all day, and at 1 r. m. Melodeou Hall, the largest in tho city, was tilled to listen to Hon. Henry IT. Johnson. That the large' audreuce was well paid for its time is putting jt mildly. For moro than two hours the Kepublican aud Democratic parties werj held in contrast, and if the applause with which the speaker was received, and the attention given him from this large nudience c indicate the effect of his ppeech, much good is to be expected from it. .Mr. Johnson was followed by Judge V. A. nil'!! in an eloquent appeal to his fellowRepubluaus to stand by their candidates olid secure the passairo of the federal election bill. To-night lion. James A. Watson, of Winchester, spoke to the largest tiudirnco that has assembled to listen to a political speech in this city. ' In an eloquent address ho exposed tho Democratic obstructionists of the present Congress and brilliantly eulogized the Republicans in Congress for passing tho pension bill, the McKinley bill, tho silver bill aud the promise that exists that they will .pass the. federal election bill. lilt; Demonstration of Farmers. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Blukfton, Nov. 1. The greatest political rally occurring here for years was the farmers' anil laborers rally to-day. Although the weather was very raw and chilly, the honest tillers of the soil began pouring into tho city early in the morning, so that by 10 o'clock the streets were fairly blocked with tho vast assemblage. Those competent to judge estimated the crowd to number from ten to twelve thousand people. The parade, at 11 o'clock, was a huge affair, more than meeting the expectations of the farmers themselves. More than one hundred turnouts were in the procession, decorated with agricultural products. Twenty-one largo six-horse wagons were loaded with voters from every part ot the connty. The Ogsian and Marble brass bands lightened the occasion with stirring patriotic music. After dinner the crowd asembled in front of the court-house to listen to speeches by CoL L. A. Wood, of Kentucky, and other orators. The rally for the farmers was a success throughout, aDd was one long to be remembered by the tillers of the soil as well as the Democratic ringsters in this county, who tremble with fear for party success in local matters. Laat Itallj In JefTeraoti County. gpecial to tho InJianapoU Journal. Madison- Nov. 1. The Republicans of Jeflerson county closed the campaign of Ih'jO with a grand day-light speaking at Canaan this afternoon. Hon. John W. I a nek was the iirst speaker, and made a forcible and logical argument. He was followed by Hon. Marcus R. Sulzer, who had just returned from a partial tour of tho fetate. His appearance was greeted with great applause, and tho largo crowd applauded to tho echo his bright remarks. Jefferson county can be relied upon to give her usual majority aud perhaps an increase. Carroll County Will Do Her Duty. E;ial to the Iudianarlu Journal. Deli'IC, Nov. 1. Last evening two rousing Republican meetings were held in this county. Congressman Owen and Hon. Jehu H. Gould spoke at Camden to cs many people as could pack into the largest fcil in the place, and the greatest enthusi

asm was manifested. The othor meeting was held at I'yrmont, the address being delivered by C. 11. Landis. The entire neighborhood turned out, a delegation from Radnor being headed by a - brass baud. There is every reason to believe that Carroll county will go Republican by an increased majority. The Kepublican leaders have worked nuceasingly since the opening of the campaign, while the opposition have done the same. Every indication appears favorable to the Republicans. Good Meeting at l'ern. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Peuu, Nov. 1. The tirst and only Republican meetings of the campaign wcro held in this city to-day. Hon. A. C. Harris, of Indianapolis, delivered a remarkable address to tho voters, in the afternoon, at the court-house, fully one thousand persons being in attendance. The speech was a masterly one. commanding close attention and eliciting repeated applause, btate issues were dwelt upon at length, and the Democracy f nlly expo-ed. The tariff received its share of attention and was plainly and candidly explained. Hon. Oliver T. Morton, who was to have spoken sent his regrets through Mr. Harris, this being the anniversa.y cf his father's death. In the evening Hon. 11. R. Sayler, of Huntington, addressed SCO wcrkingmon. presenting .facts and lignres of a conclusive character. The prospects for Republican snccess were never so ilattering at at the present time.

Glesner Will Probably Retire. SDtcial to the Indianapolis Journal. Shklbyvillk, Xov. 1. The campaign in Shelby county is drawing to a close, with bright prospects of the defeat of Judge Glcssner, Democrat, for tho Legislature, and a handsome gain for Rillingsley. Glesaner is very cdious to the Democracy, and hundreds declare they will never vote for him. Some years ago he made a speech at the court-bouse bitterly abusing the Catholic Church and the priest, and for this reason he is being savagely denounced and opposed. The farmers are also against Glessnernnd in favor of Clark, the Republican candidate.. .. . . Mr. Thoebe at Shelbyville. Special to Mm InilianaroI! Journal.

Elkhakt, Nov. 1. Tho Republicans of this city were addressed this evening, at Hoffman's big hall, by Hon. 'Henry D. Wilson, candidate for Congress from this district. The hall was jammed full and the eloquent speaker held his audience to the end of his address in which he considered the tariff and overhauled the Democratic management of State affairs. Great enthusiasm prevails here among Republicans, who consider that the world it theirs, while the Democrats realize that they are making an up-hill lieht. An Every-Day Falnehood Nailed. Spec'al to the Indianapolis Journal. SiiKUiYViLLK.Nov.l. On Friday a statement appeared in the Indianapolis Sentinel that the Farmers' Alliance of this county had indorsed Judge Glessner for the Legislature aud W. D. Bynum for Congress, and had denounced the McKinley bill. The statement is absolutely false. On tho contrary, the Alliance is for Edward Clark, Republican, for the Legislature aud IJillingsley for Congress, and a heavy vote will be polled for each of these gentlemen, Mr. Mount at Howling Green. Special to the Indianapolis J ournaL Bowling Giikf.n, Nov. 1. Hon. James A Mount. Republican candidate for Congress from this district, addressed a fair audience at tho old court-houso in this place yesterday. His speech throughout was a statement of facts, backed by substautial proof, aud entirely free from abnse. Democrats sav they never heard aa good a speech from a Republican or the facts as well represented. The spanker showed up tho fallacy of the cry "robber tariff." , Instructing tho Voters. Special to the InlianapIl Journal. Muxcin. Nov. 1.

Harness, of Kokomo, delivered one of tho best speeches yet made in this community to a a good audience, at the court-house, last night.

IN THE GRAND JURY'S HANDS

The Investigation Into the Asjlain Horror Progresses Slowly at Richmond. Wood's Indictment for Murder Delayed Second Autopsy on the Victim's Remains to Be Held at Muncie To-Day. 6peclal to the Indianapolis Journal. Richmond, Ind., Oct. L There is no doubt that the attendant, J. A. Wood, will be indicted for murder in the second degree, but it is not likely, that the indictment will be returned until Monday afternoon. George F. Baker, the undertaker, Dr. Kinsey. Jerry O'Shea, John Underbill, John Oaks, Perry, the supervisor, and a young man named Reynolds, with several others, were examined this morning. Dr. Weiet, John Marsh and John Peterson were called since dinner, and Dr. Wells is notified that he will be wanted again between 10 and 12 o'clock Monday, while there are witnesses from Wtlls and Fayette counties to come, and it is not probable that he would be wanted on any any other matter. Meanwhile, J. A. Wood, the accused attendant, is not languishing away in the county jail nor fretting over his probable fate, lie amuses himself in playing cards with the other prisoners and reading the papers, while his sweetheart, Lillio Foster, one of the hospital employes to whom he wrote from Logansport, has been calling on him to let a ray of sunlight light his path. This afternoon Mr. Jackson received a dispatch in reply from C. B. Templer, of Muncie, saying the second autopsy on Blount's remains would be held to-morrow. He cautioned him to have a specialist on the brain, and Dr. W. B. Fletcher, of Indianapolis, formerly superintendent of the Central hospital, was telegraphed to act in that capacity with Dr. J. T. Bowles, who conducted the first autopsy. A good many sensational stories get afloat concerning tho doings at the asylum, and some of them turn out to be untrue. Such was the case with regard to tho dispatch sent out from Muncie. to the effect that 3iary Weinman had possibly been murdered there some timo ago to get rid of her. It turns ont that she is alive and still in the institution. Wood Is a Democrat, of Course, t Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Logansport, Ind., Nov. 1. It has been telegraphed from here that Wood, the Richmond asylum murderer, was a Republican. That is false. He and the family have always been Democrats. One of them held otUce under the Democratic city administration here. B0LLIXG-M1LL BURNED. "Large Portion of New Albany Threatened at One Time A Loss of Over 875,000. Special to the Indianapolis Journal New Albany, Ind., Nov. 1. An alarm of tire, followed almost immediately by a second alarm, called the entire fire department to the plant of the New' Albany Steamforge and Rolling-mill Company at 6 o'clock to-night, where the rolling-mill-works were found to be a mass of flames. So good a start had the blaze gotten before the sounding of the alarm that it was impossible to save the building in which it started, though the firemen worked for four hours. At the very start the hose burst, and soon half a dozen or more surrounding houses were burning. These were saved, though at one time it seemed that the whole east end of the city would be destroyed. Great excitement prevailed, and half the population of the city was soon at the scene. Citizens were pressed into qervic ) to aid the firemen, and it was only by thj greatest effort that a terrible conflagration was avoided: The rollingmill was destroyed, but the large forgeworks was saved. Tho loss will reach $75,000 to the mill alone, while that to other property will amount to a considerable sum. The insurance is only $3,500, in the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company, of San Francisco. - Steamfthlp Arrives in Port on Fire. New York, Nov. 1. At 10:10 to-night fire was discovered in the hold of the new iron Mallory steamship Leona, which had arrived this morning from Galveston Tex., with a crew of sixty-five men and sixteen passengers, and a cargo of 5,5C0 bales of cotton. The passengers and crew were hurried ashore. Seven tire engines pumped ' water into the burning hold, which was like a raging f uruace. At midnight it was decided to scuttle the burning vessel just where she was burning alongside the pier, as the tire could not otherwise be controlled. It was reported that one of the crew was asleep on board the vessel, but this report could not bo confirmed. Other Fires. Pkoria, 111., Nov. 1. The business portion of the town of Chillicothe was almost destroyed by lire last night. The lire originated in Hancock's livery stable and spread ranidly in all . direc tions. The Mayor of this city was appealed to for help, and in response a special train with tire engines was dispatched to tho scene, but, as there were no means-of unloading the machinery, they could not be utilized. The telegraph and telephone offices were burned. The loss will not fall short of $200,000, on which there is only a partial insurance. MusKKGOX, Mich., Nov. 1. The Muskegon Lumber and Shingle Company's mill and dock, together with about ten million shingles and 500,000 feet of lumber, burned at y o'clock this morning. The loss is estimated at about 875,000.

cussed during the greater part - of the day, and was finally rejected for the national society, but adopted for Pennsylvania organizations.

The Mother of Charlotte Huff Anxious as to Her Whereabouts Alleged 111 Treatment. Mrs. Minerva Benjamin, of No. 11 Madison avenue, reported to the police, yesterday afternoon, that her danghter, Charlotte Hull', and husband, Carl, who is employed at the Woodburn-Sarven wheel-works, had disappeared on the lPth of last month and had not since been seen. Tho couple, who were married in May, have been living on the corner of Woodburn street and Riverside avenue, in West Indianapolis, and have had three separations, followed by as' many reconciliations. So suddenly did they leave the house that the table was covered with unwashed dishes, as if a meal had just been finished. Some clothes which had been washed had been sprinkled down and were still unironed on a chair. The back door was left open, and, coupled with the fact that they did not take their best clothes, and that the wife's health is delicate, the mother is in great uistress and doubt as to tho welfare of her daughter. She informed a Journal reporter last night that the neighbors were told that Hurl' and bis wife were going to Paris, 111., the lattefs former home, to claim an inheritance of $500 due her. A letter is said to have been received from her there by one of the neighbors. The strange conduct of the couple, together with HutTs frequent alleged cruel treatment of his wife, caused Mrs. Benjamin to seek the aid of the police in linding the couple. An Officer Assaulted.

INDIAN TRADITIONS. Queer Stories About a Strange Place in Indian Territory The Fountain of Youth. Kansas City Star. In the Wichita mountains, in the most picturesque portion of the Indian Territory, at the base of an immense bluff, which is S10 feet high by an actual triangulation made by the engineer officer with General Custer in the winter of 1808, there is a clear, running river, or. more properly, a brook, for it is only about seventy feet wide. The form which the stream takes at the immediate foot of the mountain is that of a crescent, and nnder the deep shadow which the great hill throws over the water at certain times of the day, the pool looks black as ink, but the moment the water emerges into the sunlight, it sparkles aud scintillates until it is painful for tho eves to rest npon it. The stream is called by the Indians Medicine Bluff creek, and the immense mass of disrupted rock. Medicine bluff. From the time when the memory of the tribes "runneth not to the contrary'1 Medicine bluff' has been a prominent spot in the traditions and veritable history of the tribes, but especially in that of the Cotnanches and the Wichita; it was a sort of '0urf Lady of Lourdes" place where the sick were cured in the most miraculous manner, after they had been given up by the doctors of the tribe. If tho party atilicted had not grieved the Great Spirit tho enre was as sudden as it was miraculous. If the sick who were carried there by their friends had at any time offended the Great Spirit, no interference occurred, and the patient died at once, the wolves devoured the llesh, aud the bones were transported to the 'Land of Terrors." Sometimes when a sick persou was carried there who had lived a specially excellent lifo, instead of being cured of his ills, he or she was transported bodily, like Elisha of old, to the Indian heaven. At night, the Comanches declared, the Great Spirit rested upon the hill, and. when that occurred, all around in that vicinity the country was lighted up with a strange glow, like that emanating from an immense prairie tire when seen lrom a great distance. No dew or rain ever fell on the extreme top of the bluff, where tho sick were to lie, nor did the wind ever blow there, so that it was a calm, warm and perfectly quiet snot, containing all the essentials to a speedy recovery. One of the traditions connected with the strange place is that of how an aged warrior, sick and despondent, who went there to be cured, had his life rejuvenated, and who came back to his people and became a great medicine man. There was once an old warrior who had loug lived among the women of the village; he had years before ceased tb hunt the buffalo and had settled himself down to a peaceful calm to await the time to join his fathers. He oue dav struggled to the top of the Medicine bluff, hoping to die and be carried off to the happy huuting-grounda by the Great Spirit. He had been absent from his lodge for three nights, and all during that time the frightened people down in the village observed a great blaze on top of the bluff, as if a signal tire had been kindled to warn them of some impending danger to the tribe. On the third morning a young man equipped as a warrior was seen decending tho trail from the bluft, and drawing near to the village. When he entered its atree a he looked about him in surprise. He approached the chiefs lodge, and sat down by the lire. The other warrioie of the tribe gazed at the strange visitor with awe; no one recognized him, and all remained silent waiting for him to speak. Then lighting his pipe, which was beautifully decorated with eagles' feathers and the richest beads, first taking a pull at it himself, he passed it around the circle, Indian fashion, and after each had taken a whiff he told them-his story, as follows: When be had reached the top of the bill he looked off upon the vast expanse which surrounded him. and he saw the village of his people; he could hear the dogs bark and the children laugh; he could hear his own family mourning, as if some one had been taken from them; he saw the buffalo covering the plain; he saw the sly wolf lying in wait to pounce upon his prey, and then, when he looked all around him and beheld the young warriors in their pride aud strength, he asked himself, "Why do I live any longer! My tires have gone out; I must follow my fathers; the world is beautiful to the yon.nj, but to tho old It hjxs uo pleasure Far away toward tho

setting sun are the hnnting grounds of my people. I will go there!'' With this, he gathered up all of his strength and leaped from the giddy height before him. He knew no more of the woes of life; he was caught up in mid-air and transported to a country where game was countless; where there was no wind, no rain and nosickness, aud where all the great chiefs of the Comanches who had ever died had assembled, and where they were all young again, and chased the buffalo and feasted as when on earth; there was no darkness, and the people were continually happy. Beautiful birds sung on the trees, and the war-whoop was never heard. The story of the strange young warrior captivated the Indians, and he at once became an oracle and a great medicine man in tho tribe; h:s power to cure was wonderful, and his counsel was obeyed implicitly ever after. DEATH TO TILE CIIINCII-TJUGS. A Kansas Professor Perfecting' Plans for the Extinction of the Pest. v Kansas City Star. '. Prof. F. IL Snow, chancellor of the University of Kansas at Lawrence, is in the city for the purpose of getting a consignment of historical and literary books from Hamburg, Germany, to the language department of the university. Since Professor Snow's appointment to the chancellorship, last April, he (has surprised even his most intimate friends and associates by his administrative ability, and his intuitive knowledge of the wants of the instltntion. He has always been a great student of entomology, and for several years past has been a valuable adjunct to the State Agricultural Department. His experiments with tho chinch-bugs the past season have demonstrated beyond a doubt that he is able to exterminate tbem completely from a held of grass, and probably from the State. Speaking on the subject of his investigation this morning, he said: "The ravages of the chinch-bugs in Kansas are well known. Various schemes for their extermination have been advocated, but it is needless to say that they invariably have been utter failures, with possi bly one or two exceptions. I believe I now have a method that is successful beyond a doubt. It has proven so during the past two seasons, at least, and I have faith in the utter extinction of the bugs, in so far as their power to destroy crops is concerned. Experiments have been going on, not only in Kansas, but in Illinois, Ohio and other cereal-producing sections where the chinch-bug nourishes. More than 00 percent, of these investigations have proven successful, and where there have been failures I find that my instructions wero violated. "There are three diseases .known to be fatal to the chinch-bug. The bacterial and fungus diseases are the mcst deadly. I have had far greater success in experimenting with the first-named. It affects the bug as pneumonia aud cholera would affect a humun being only more. All that is necessary is to expose healthy bugs to affected ones, and in from live to twelve days all bugs that have thus been exposed will die. This last summer I visited Marion, Montgomery and Chautauqua counties, taking with me a small jar cf chinchbugs aillicted with bacteria. At various points in fields where the bugs wero creating havoc I would drop a half dozen or approximate number of the sick bugs. At the expiration of five days all the bugs began to die, and in twelve days' time there was not a live bug at any place where the experiments were made. . "It was a question with me last season whether or not 1 could preserve the vitality of the disease during the winter. Last fall I placed a nnmber of the insects in a class jar, and after tho elapse of the limited twelve days all the bugs were dead. As early as possible in the spring I fathered a few live bugs and placed them ia the iar, and to m.v delight! discovered that they became aillicted in five davs' time." AU on one side the offer that's mado by the proprietors of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. It's $500 reward, for an incurable case of Catarrh, no matter how bad, or of how long standing. They mean what they say; they're responsible, and tho offer has been made for years. It's all on your side you lose your catarrh, or you're paid $500 for keeping it. But it's safe for them, too they know you'll bo cured. Dr. Sage's Remedy produces perfect and permanent cures of Chronic Catarrh in tho Head, as thousands can testify. " Cold in tho Head " is cured with z few applications. Catarrhal Headache is relieved and cured as if by magic. It removes offensive breath, loss or impairment of tho sense of taste, smell or hearing, watering or weak eyes, and impaired memory, when caused by tho violence of Catarrh, as they all . frequently arc. Remedy sold by druggists, 50 cents.
