THE INDIANAPOLIS JGUHIIAL, I.2-OITDAY, APHiL 13, 16C3.

htl crashing through the bodies of men! Tnir-ik of the widows end orphans! Think of the maimed, the mutilated, the mangled! m .HOMES FOH ALL. On the subject of.homes'the Colonel said: The home Is the unit of the Nation. The more hemes the broader the foundation of the Nation and more secure. Everything that Is possible should be done, to keep this from being a nation of tenants. The men who cultivate the earth should own it. Something has already been done In our country in that direction, and probably in every State there Is a homestead exemption. This exemption has thus far done no harm to the creditor class. When we imprisoned people for debt, debts were as insecure, to say the least, as now. By the homestead Jaws a home of a certain value or of a certain extent Is exempt from forced levy or sale, and these laws have done great good. Undoubtedly they have trebled the homes of the Nation. I wish to go a tep further. I want. If pwsible, to ge3 the people cut of the tenements, out of the gutters of degradation, to homes where there can be privacy, where the:e peop.e can feel that they are in partnership with nature: that they have an interest in good government. With the means we now have for poor people, being huddled In festering masses in the vile, hithy and Icathsomo parts 06 cities, where poverty breeds rags and the rags breed diseases. I would exempt a homestead of a reasonable value, say of the value of $2.C0O or J3.C0O. not only from sale under execution, but from sale for taxes of every description. These homes sroiid be absolutely exempt. They should belong to the family, to that every mother should feci that the" roof above her head was hers; that her house was her castle, ami that In Its possession sne could not be disturbed, even by the Nation. Under certain conditions I would allow the sale of this homestead and exempt the proceeds of the sale for a cetraln tine, durin? which they might be invested In another home, and all this could be done to make a nation of homsebclders, a nation of landowners, a nation cf home builders. I would invoke the same power to preserve these homes, and to acquire these home, that I would invoke for acquiring lands for building railways. Every fcitate. should fix the amount of land that could be owned by an individual, not liable to be taken from him for the purpose cf giving a home to another, and when any man owned more acres than the law allowed, and another should a3k to purchase them, and he should refuse, 1 would have the law so that the person wishing to purchase could file his petition in court. The court would appoint commissioners, or a Jury would be called, to determine the value of the land the petitioner wished for a home, and. upon the amount being paid, found by euch commissioner or Jury, the land should vest absolutely In the petitioner. This right of eminent domain should be used not only for the benefit of the person wishing a home, but for the benefit of all the people. Nothing is more Important to America than that the babes of America should be born around the firesides of homes. THE MARRIAGE TIE. There Is another question in which I take great Interest, and It ought. In my judgment, be answered by the Intelligence and kindness of our century. We all know that for many, many ages men have been slaves, and we all know that during all these years womvn have, to some extent, been the slaves of slaves. It is of the utmost importance to the human race that women, that mothers, should be free. Without doubt the contract of marriage is the most important and the most sacred that human beings can make. Carriage is the most Important of all Institutions. Ot course, the ceremony of marriage is not the real marriage. It is only evidence of the mutual flames that burn within. There can be no real marriage without mutual love. So I believe in the ceremony of marriage: that it should be public; that records should be kept. Besides, the ceremony says to ail the wond that those who marry are in love with each other. Then arises the question of divorce. Millions of people imagine that the marrlel are Joined togetner by some supernatural power, and that they should remain together, or at least married, during life. If all wno have been married were joined together by the supernatural we must admit tnat the suptrcaturai is not infinitely wise. After all, marriage is a contract, and the parties :o the contract are bound to keep its provisions, tnd neither should be released from such a contract unless in some way the interests of society are Involved. I would have the law so that any husband could obtain a divorce when the wife had persistently and flagrantly violated the contract, such divorce to be granted on equitable terms. I wouid give the wife a divorce if she requested it, if she

And I would do this not only for her sake, tout for the sake of the community, ot the Nation. All children should be children of love. All that are born should be sincerely welcomed. The children cf mothers who dislike or hate or loathe the fathers will fill the world with Insanity and crime. No woman should by law or by public opinion be forced to live with a man whom she abhors. There Is no danger of demoralizing- the world through ji -rce. Neither is there any danger of icstroy'ng in the human heart that Jivlne thing railed love. As long as the human raje exists men and women will love each other, and just so long there will, be true and perfect marilage. Slavery 13 not the soil or rain cf virtu;. I make a difference between granting divorce to a man and to a woman, and for this reason: A woman dowers her husband with her youth and beauty. He should not bo allawed to desert her because she has grown wrinkled an! c'd. Her capital 13 gone, her prospects in lifu lessened, while, on the contrary, he may bj far better able to succeed than when he married her. As a rule, the man can take care of himself, and. s a rule, the woman needs help. So I wculd not allow him to cast her off unless she had flagrantly violated the contract. But for. the sake of the community, and esrecially for the sake of the babes, I would give her a divorce for the asklnc. There will r.ever be a generation of great men until there has been a generation of free women of free mothers. The tenderest word in our language is maternity. In that word is the ilivir.o mlngiin? with ecstasy and agony, of love and elf -sacrifice. This word is holy. THE LABOR QUESTION. There has be:n for many years ceaseless dlscus-slon upon what is called the labor question the conflict between the workingman ni the capitalist. Many ways have been devised, some experiments have been tried for the purpose of solving this question. Profit. sharin woulJ not work, because it is Impossible to share profits with these who are incapable of sharing- losses. Communities have been formed, the object bring- to ray the expenses and share the prcfits among all the persons belonging to the society. For the mc.?t part these have failed. Others have advocated arbitration, and while it may be that the employers could be bound) by the decision of the arbitrators there has been no way discovered by which the employes could be held by uch decision. In other word.?, the question has not been solved. For my own part. I see no final and satisfactory solution exempt through the civilization cf employers and employed. The question is so complicated, the ramifications are so countless, - that a solution by law or by force ?ems it least Improbable. Employer? are suproseJ to pay according to their profits. Thy may or may not. Troflt may be destroyed by competition. The employer is at the mercy of other employers and as much so as his employes are at hi mercy. The employers rannot govern prices, they cannot fix demand, they cannot control supply, and at present, in the worll of trade, the laws of supply and demand, except when Interfered with by conspiracy, are in absolute control. Will the time arrive, and can it arrive, except by developing the brain, except by the aid of intellectual light, when the purchaser will wl?h to frlve what a thing is worth, whn th employer will be satisfied with a reasonable profit, when the employer will be anxious to give the real value for raw material, when he will be really anxious to pay the labcrer the full value of his labor? will the employer ever become civilized encugh to know that the law of supply and demand should noi absolutely apply in the labor market of the world? Will he ever become civilized enough not to take advantage of the necessities of the poor, of the hunger and rags and want 0? poverty? Will he ever become civilized enough to say, "I will pay the man who labors for me enough to give him reascnabl suppcrt, enough for him to as.ist in taking care-of wife and children, enough for him to do this and enable him to lay aside something to feed arui clothe him when old aK comes, to lay aside something, enough to give him house and hearth during the December of his life, so that he can warm his worn and shriveled hands at the tire of homer LABOR PAYS ALL EXPENSES. Of course, capital can do nothing without the assistance of labor. All there is of value in the world U the product of labor. The laboring man pays all the expenses. No matter whether taxes are paid on luxuries or on the necessaries of life, labor pays every cent. So we mut remember that, day by day. labor is becoming Intelligent. So I believe the employer 13 gradually becoming civilized, radaally becoming kinder, and many men who .have made large for tunes from the Ubo.' of their fellows have piven of their millions to what they regarded z cbjects of charity or for the InterrstF cl tlzzz'J.za. Thia is & kind cf penance, be

cause the men that have made this money from the brain and muscle of their fellowmen have ever felt tnat it was not quite their own. Many of these employers have sought to balance their accounts by leaving something for universities or the establishment of libraries, drinking fountains or to build monuments to departed greatne3. It would have been, I think, far better had they used this money to better the condition of tha men who really earned it. So I think that when we become civilized great corporations will make provisions for men who have given their lives to their service. I think the great railroads should pay pensions to their wornout employes. They should take care of them in old age. They should not malm and wear out their servants and then discharge them and allow them to be supported, in ;oorhouses. These great companies should take care of the men they maim; they should look out for the ones whose lives they have used and whose labor has been the foundation of their prosperity. Upon this question public sentiment should be aroused to such a degree that these corporations would be ashamed to use a human life and then threw away the broken old man as they would cast aside a rotten tie. . It may be that the mechanics, the workIngmen, will finally become intelligent enough to really unite to act in absolute concert. Could this bo accomplished then a reasonable rate of compensation could be fixed and enforced. Now such efforts are local, and the result up to- thU time has been a-failure. But If all could unite they could obtain what is reasonable, what is Just, and they would have the sympathy f a very large majority cf their fellowmen, provided they were reasonable. But before they can act In this way they must become really Intelligent, intilllgent enough to know what Is reasonable and honest enough to ask for no more. So much has already been accomplished for th worklngman that I have hope, and great hope, of the future. The hours of labor have been shortened, and materially shortened, in many countries. There was a time when men worked fifteen and iixteen hours a day. Now generally a day's work is no longer than ten hours, and the tendency is to still further reduce the hours. By comparing long periods of time we more clearly perceive the advance that has been made. In 1860 the average amount earned by the laboring men, workmen, mechanics, per year was about J25. It is now about JoOu, and $1 to-day will purchase more of the necessaries of life, more food, clothing and fuel than it would in 1S60. These facts are full of hope for the future. All our sympathies should be with the men who work, who toll, for the women who labor for themselves and children, because we know that labor is the foundation of all and that those who labor are the caryatides that support the structure and glittering dome of civilization and progress. ' EDUCATE TI5D CHILDREN. Every child should be taught to be selfsupporting, and every one should be taught to avoid being a burden on others as it would slum death. Every child should be taught that the useful are the honorable, and that they who live on the labor of others are the enemies of society. Every child should be taught that useful work is worship, and that intelligent labor is the highest form of prayer. Children should be taught to think, to investigate, to rely upon the right of reason, of observation and experience: should be taught to use all their senses, and they should be taught only that which in some tense is really useful. They should be taught the use of tools, to use their hands, to embody their thoughts in the construction of things. Their lives should not be wasted In the acquisition of the useless or of the almost useless. Years should not be devoted to the acquisition of dead languages or to the study of history, which, for the most part, is a detailed account of things that never occurred. It is useless to fill the mind with dates of great battles, with the births and deaths of kings. They should be taught the philosophy of history, the growth of nations, of philosophies, theories, and, above all, of the sciences. So they should be taught

tne importance not only of financial but of mental honesty; to be absolutely sincere; to utter their real -thoughts, and to give -their actual opinions, and, if parents want honest children, they should be honest themselves. It may be that hypocrites transmit their failing to their offspring. Mem and women who pretend to agree with the majority, who think one way and talk another, can hardly expect their children to be absolutley sincere. Nothing should be taught in any school that the teacher does not know. Beliefs, superstitions, theories, should not be treated like demonstrated facts. The child should be taught to investigate, not to believe. Too much doubt is better than too much credulity. So children should be taught that it is their duty to think for themselves, to understand, and. If possible, to know. Real education is the hope of the future. The development of the brain, the civilization of the heart, will drive want and crime from the world. The schoolhouse is the real cathedral . and science the only possible savior cf the human race. Education, real education is the friend of honesty, of morality, of temperance. We cannot rc-ly on legislative enactments to make people wise and good; neither can we expect to ' make human beings manly and womanly by keeping them out of temptation. Temptations are as thick as the leaves of the forest, and no one can be eut of the reach of temptation unless he is dead. The great thing 13 to make people Intelligent enough and strong enough not to keep away from temptation, but to resist it. All the forces of civilization are in favor of morality and temperance. Little can be accomplished by law, because law, for the most part, about such things is a destruction of personal liberty. Liberty cannot be sacrificed for the sake of temperance, for the sake of morality, or for the sake of anything. It is of more value than everything else. Yet some people would destroy the sun to prevent the growth of weeds. Liberty sustains the same relation to all the virtues that the sun does to life. The world had better go back to barbarisms, to the dens, the caves and lairs of savagery; bet ter lose all art. all inventions, than to lose liberty. Liberty is the breath of progress; it is the seed and soil, the heat and rain of love and Joy. THE HIGHEST AMBITION. So all should be taught that the highest ambition is to be happy and to add to the well being of others; that place and power are not necessary to success; that the desire to acquire great , wealth is a kind of . in sanity. They should be taught that it is a waste of energy, a waste of thought, a waste of life, to acquire what you do not need and what you do not really use for the benefit of yourself or others. . Neither mendicants nor millionaires are the happiest of mankind. The man at the bottom of the ladder hopes to rise; the man at the top fears to fad. The cne" asks; the other refuses, and by frequent refusal the heart becomes hard enough and the hand greedy enough to clutch and hold. Few men have intelligence enough, real greatness enough, to own a great fortune. As a rule, the fortune owns them. Their fortune Is their master, for whom they work and toil like slaves. The man who can make a reasonable living and lay aside something for the future, who can educate his children and can leave enough to keep the wolf of want from the door of these he loves, ought to be the happiest of men. Now society bows and kneels at the feet of wealth. Wealth gives power, wealth commands flattery and adulation, and so millions of men give all their energies, as well as their very souls, for the acquisition of gold, and this will continue as long as society is ignorant enough and hypocritical enough to hold in high esteem the man of wealth without the slightest regard to the character of the man. In Judging of the rich two things should be considered: How did they get it, and what are they doing with It? Was it honestly acquired? Is it being used for the benefit of mankind? When people become really Intelligent, when the brain 13 really developed, no human being will give his life to the acquisition of what he does not need or what he cannot intelligently use. The time will come when the truly Intelli gent man cannot be happy, cannot be satisfled, when millions of his fellow-men are hungry and naked: the time will come when in every heart will be the perfume of pity's sacred flower; the time will. come when the wcrld will be anxious to ascertain the truth, to find out the conditions of happiness and to live in accordance with such conditions, and the time will come when. In the brain of every human being, will be the climate of intellectual hospitality. Man will be civilized when the passions are dominated by the Intellectual, when reason occupies the throne, and when the hot blood of paysdon no longer rises In successful revolt To civilize the world, to hasten the coming of the dawn of the perfect day, we must educate the children; we must commence at the cradle, at the lap of the loving mother. WE MUST WORK AND WAIT. The reforms that I have mentioned cannot be accompllffred in a day, possibly not for many centuries, and in the meantime thert is much crime, much poverty, much want. and, consequently, something must be done now. Let each human being within the limits of the possible be self-rupportlng; let every one Luke intelligent though; for the morrow, an J if a human being support3 himself an I ac quires a surplus, let him use a part of that surplus for the unfortunate, and Jet each one to the extent, or his ability help his fellow men. Let him do what he can in the cirel rof Mi own acquaintance to rescue the fallen.

to help those who are trying to help themselves, to give work to the Idle. Let him distribute kind words, words of wisdom, of cheerfulness and hone. In other words, let every human being do all the good he can, and let him bind ud the wounds of his fellow-creatures and at the same time put forth every effort to hasten the coming of a better day. This, In my judgment, is real religion. To do all the good you can is to be a saint in the highest and in the noblest sense. To do all the good you can this is to bo really and truly spiritual. To relievo suffering, to put the star of hope in the midnight of despair this is true holiness. This is the religion of science. The old creeds are too narrow; they are not for the world in which we live. The old dogmas lack breadth and tenderness: they are too cruel, too merciless, too savage. We are growing grander and nobler. The firmament inlaid with suns is the dome of the real cathedral. The interpreters of nature are the true and only priests. In the great creed are all the truths that lips have uttered, and in the real litany will be found all the ecstasies and aspirations of the soul, all dreams of Joy, all hopes for nobler, fuller life. The real church, the real edifice, is adorned and glorified with all that art has. done. In the real choir Is all the thrilling music of the world, and in the starlit aisle have been, and are, the grandest souls of every land and clime. "There is no darkness tut ignorance." Let ua flood the world with intellectual liKhL NEW PUBLICATIONS.

One Is at a loss to understand why Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett should have christened her latest novel so awkwardly. "A Lady of Quality" would have been enough, especially as the' opening chapter locates the period ot the story, but to this title Is added: "Being a most curious, hitherto unknown history, related by Mr. Isaac Bickerstaff, but not presented to the world of fashion through the pages of the Tatler, and now for the first time written down by Frances Hodgson Burnett." The story does not read as if related by any Mr. Isaac Bickerstaff or any other writer of the Tatler period. It is Mrs. Burnett's story through and through and the explanatory title does not add anything to it3 merits or the reader's enjoyment of it. Like most of the author's stories, especially her best ones, it is full of warm, throbbing human feeling. As a portrayer of strong and genuine sentiment Mrs. Burnett has few superiors, and "A Lady of. Quality" shows her at her best in thi3 regard. Clorlnda Wildairs, the heroine of the story, is a woman of the period in which the scene of the story is laid, and her career illustrates its social customs and morals. Appearing first as a wild and willful child, later as a beautiful, reckless girl, and finally as a fascinating woman of mature charms, the reigning toast of the period and acknowledged queen of hearts, first a countess and then a duchess, courting and enjoying the admiration of all men and the love of more than one. She is the supreme coquette of a period when women practiced coquetry as a fine art. As the author paints her she is not what would be called a model woman or even a good one; but she is a magnificent creature and a distinct figure in literature. She is the central figure of the story, and tha other characters seem to revolve around her as necessary satellites. Her somewhat stormy life has a quiet ending and she carries the secret of a tragedy into the grave with her. The story is strongly dramatic, and, whatever else may be said of it. all readers will admit that it is intensely Interesting. Cloth, ornamented, $1.50. New York: Charles Scrlbner's Sons. "The Jewish Scriptures," by Amos Kidder FIske, treats of the books of the Old Testament in the light of their origin and history. The purpose of the work is to present the history and literature of the ancient He brews, as contained in the Old Testament, In a clear, concise and candid way, acceptng the benefit of the light revealed by mod ern research and learning and applying the same Judgment used in dealing with other ancient writings. In carrying out his plan the author has sought to extricate the story of the life of the people of Israel from the confusion with whlcTi it has been surrounded and.. with such aid as may be got from other sources, make a plain delineation of it, as a background on which 10 exmoit the designs of the scriptural writers. The work does not deal with theological questions, but throws much light on the real origin and character of the books of the Old Testa ment. Cloth, $1.50. New York: Charles Scrlbner's Sons. Capt. Charles King does not write boys stories, or we might suppose "Trumpeter Fred" to be a "little boy blue" Instead of a "soiaier ooy riue, in tne rougn service of the regular army. Nevertheless It could be called a capital "boy's story" without de tracting rrom us interest as a stirring story for all who are Interested in army life, espe cially the perilous and hard service of the frontier. The first edition of "Trumpeter Fred" was sold before the first copy had left the binders, foreshadowing the popularity this little book is likely to achieve. Published in Neely's Prismatic Library. Gilt top. 75 cent3, by F. Tennyson Neely. New York. Chicago. "The second opportunity of Mr. Staplehurst," by W. Pett Ridge, is a clever and original story. Its keynote Is the common aspiration: "If only I had my time to live over again!" Mr. Staplehurst, by a whimsical chance, has his ' opportunity, but he finds" himself handicapped by the accumulated experience of his former years. Experience is supposed to be a valuable, because hard-earned, possession, but Mr. Staplehurst would have been much better off without it, and he who reads may learn why. The book is epigrammatic, humorous and well written. Cloth, $1.25. Harpers. The Harpers publish a new edition of "The Danvers Jewels" and "Sir Charles Danvers," two stories in one volume. The first relates to the many methods employed to get possession of some famous jeweJs, and the subsequent novel way in which a woman obtained them. The second contains an entertaining love story of two English lovers, kept apart for awhile by the overscrupulous ideas of the heroine, but united at last by the irresistible power of their pure, and unselfish love. Both stories belong to the school of good, wholesome Action. Cloth, ornamental, $1. G. P. Putnam'3 Sons publish a new edition, the eighteenth thousand, of "The Rule of the Turk and the Armenian Crisis," by Frederick D. Greene. The author has spent considerable time in Armenia, and he gives a full and authoritative account of the massacres, together with much historic and descriptive matter and a discussion of the Eastern question. The work contains an autograph preface by Gladstone, map and many other illustrations, and is one to attract attention. Paper. 50 cents. G. P. Putnam's Sons. In "Tommy Toddles, by Albert Lee, the wonderful adventures and experiences of a little boy who wandered through a fastastlc country are described in a very amu3lng manner, various animals taking a funny part.

PERU, Ind., April 12. John Murphy, a Lake Erie & Western engineer, of Indianapolis, got too close to a den of tigers at the Wallace circus winter quarters to-day, and one of the beasts grabbed him about the neck and shoulders and began pulling him in. Mr. Murphy escaped, but not until his coat was almost torn from him and a gash three Inches long cut in his neck, narrowly missing the Jugular vein. Hundreds of people witnessed the accident and were much excited. The keeper came to Mr. Murphy's rescue and struck the animal several times with an iron bar. A short time after the accident a country woman patted the paw of the beast, but was not injured. SUICIDE OP A GIANT. Samuel JP. Thompson Six Feet Eight Inches in Height, lianas Himself.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND, Ind., April 12. The new catalogues of Earlham College, which will soon be Issued, will show a number of gains that have been made In various lines since the last catalogue was Issued. In connection with it this year there will be Issued a pamphlet containing a complete list and description of the contents of the museum, "which is one of the best college museums In the State. The near approach of field day has aroused an interest in athletics and the prospect Is that the contests will be the most exciting of any yet held. The new trainer, Fred Allen, of Pennsylvania, is helping to get the students Into good shape by hi advice. The scholarships awarded the members of the senior class each year have been announced. Miss Ethel Grime3 secured the one to Bryn Mawr, and W. O. Beal, the one to Haverford. The Republican club of the college held a meeting last night to which the publlo was Invited. Warren Barrett, who attended Jthe annual meeting of the American College Republican League, held in Chicago last week, as a representative of the Earlham organization, gave a talk on the convention, and an address on the political issues of the day was delivered by the Hon. Charles E. Shively, of this city. The college club is in a thriving condition and a majority of the male students are members. All the classes have held elections of officers within the past week with the following result: Freshmen President, Ethel Symonds; vice president. Will Freshour; secretary, Carl Brown; treasurer, Herman Stabler. Sophomores President, Mary Scott; vice president. Wilfred Jessup; secretary, Bennett Gordon; treasurer, Grace Maddock.

Ind., April 12.-The second week of the spring term of Wabash College finds all of the old students at their accustomed places, doing most eatlsfactory work. There have been several additions to the already large student body. Every one is manifesting considerable Interest in the athletics booked for this term.. Owing to the unsettled weather the members of the college team have , been handicapped. It was only lately that they could practice 'out of doors. Some very rapid improvement is expected In a few of the new men, and the possibilities are decidedly encouraging. The best selections have been made, and after sufficient practice Wabash will surely have a team as strong at baseball as she was at football last season. The boys donned their new suits yesterday for the first time. Possibly some great sport will be furnished here during this term, as gimes have been scheduled with all the college teams of the State. The outdoor games of recreation promise to be numerous this term. Already members of the fraternities and others have cleaned off their respective courts In the campus. Within a fortnight there will be any number of games in progress. STATE MCETI.VG OP THE X. P. A. Programme Arranged by Richmond Post Formation of the Parade. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

OLD GLORY IN FLANNEL Death. of the Woman Who Made the First Flogr Used In California. SANTA MONICA, April 12. Mrs. P. C. Carrillo, the mother of Mayor J. J. Carrlllo, is dead. She had the distinction of having made the first American flag used in California. The deceased was the daughter of Juan Bandlni, a man of great wealth, who lived in San Diego at the time of the Mexican war. Commodore Stockton, commanding a battalion of American troops, came to San Diego, Intending to make a triumphal entry into the city and proclaim the town under American control. Just before reaching the town it was discovered that. the troops had no flag. The Commodore was in a quandary, as he wanted to march Into the pueblo in such a manner as would impress the residents with the power of the government he represented. He ordered the battalion to halt, and, leaving the troops where they, were, ho went to Juan Bandlni, who was the leading man of the town, and made known his predicament. Bandlni assured the Commodore that he would help him out of the difficulty, and called on his daughters to The material at hand was not suitable for the purpose, but Bandlni, who kept a srnill store, took from his stock pieces of flannel of red, white and blue. These he turned over to his daughters to make a flag. The deceased was the eldest daughter, and she did the necessary cutting and sewing, being assisted by her two younger sisters, who are now Mrs. Baker, the widow of Col. R. S. Baker, late of Los Angeles, and Mrs. Cave J. Couts, of San Diego. The flag was finally completed, the stars being made of white cotton, and, although it was a remarkable banner, It answered the purpose. The troops were marched into town, guns were fired, and there was a general celebration. The banner which was made under such singular circumstances now reposes, with other relics of the Mexican war, in the collection at Washington, D. C. The woman to whose services the pno-rf"-uon or the flag was largely due lived with her husband at San Diego for some time. Later the family moved to Santa Barbara, from there to Los Angeles, and finally to Santa Monica, where they lived for several years, Mr. Carrillo serving for a timo as justice of the peace. Seven children were born, including the present Mayor and Alfred E. Carrillo. of Santa Monica, and five sisters, one of whom Is Mrs. C. F. Smurr, of San Francisco, wife of tho general freight agent of the Southern Pacific. Several California Governors under Mexican dominion were related to the family. Carlo3 Carrillo, the father-in-law of the deceased, served as Governor for several years, and Governors Vallejo and Castro were also related. Gen. John C Fremont was a warm friend of the family, and he and his wife were frequent visitors at the family home. Bicycles and the Malls. New York Post. The postofflce department of this city Is seriously considering the advisability of adopting the carrier bicycle for the collection of mall matter. The assistant city delivery superintendent, Mr. Lockwood, said to-day that his department already had one carrier bicycle which was being tested, and that so far the results were very favorable. He thought they might ultimately be adopted for general collection from substations above Fourteenth street and in the annexed district. As for using ordinary bicycles, it was thought that they might be valuable in special delivery departments and where only small packages were handled at one time. When asked if the department had any objections to postmen using their own bicycles, he said there was none so long as the routes were coversd in the reduired time. In Brooklyn several postmen collect and deliver on their wheels. Qualities of Vegetables. Philadelphia Record.

Ky., April 12,-Nearly five thousand people law Louisville win its game to-day from Indianapolis. There was nothing disgraceful about the defeat of the Hoosiers. for had umpire Reccius been more kindly disposed toward the visitors Louisville would have at least two runs less. The fielding of the Hoosiers was almost faultless, and Stewart again carried off the honoss for the infield, while Connor is entitled to praise for covering a world of territory in center. McDermott pitched In roldseason form, and, while Monroe was effective, Louisville managed to hit the ball when the hits were most needed. Warner's double and Shannon's single gave Louisville an earned run In the third. Clarke's single, a stolen base. Wood's bad throw and an out scored the second run. In Indianapolls's half of the sixth Wood. Monroe and McCarthy hit for singles, which gave the visitors their only run. Shannon's base on -balls, a stolen base and O'Brien's single yielded one In the eighth. The last run was scored on Hutchinson's single, a sacrifice and a safe hit by McDermott. Score: Louisville.

HORRORS AT LOUISVILLE. The Colonels Won Their Games hy Highway Robbery. The Indianapolis ball club returned last night from Louisville, accompanied by several of the local enthusiasts, who went down to see yesterday's game. One of the men who was a witness to the game said the umpire, who was a Louisville man, simply gave the games to his own town, regardless of what was done by the players.' This man claims that with Sheridan, who um pired the Cincinnati games. Indianapolis would have won both games without a struggle. "The actions of the Louisville players were simply outrageous," this man said. "At -one time a Louisville player was running from second to third and the ball was thrown to McCormick. The runner was sure to be caught, so the Louisville players, who crowded clear Into tne diamond, began throwing dust Into McCormick's face. They filled his eyes and he could not even see the ball. It passed him and the runner scored. Protesting to the umpire did no good. He was scared ind said he could not rule against the Loulsvnie men. One of the Louisville men saia tneir ciud naa to win, so as to defeat the club that clowned Cincinnati. It was such a game as that fall through." Another Indianapolis man said that Satur-i day when White was running from second to third. O'Brien deliberately ran into him. and after knocking him down stamped on him. White was spiked in three places In this encounter. Clark spiked Stewart both days. These things and many other such stories were told by many who witnessed the games, which leaves little doubt of their truth. One man said the whole trouble was caused by the defeat of Cincinnati. The Louisville men wanted it to go out to the world that they downed the club that defeated Cincinnati in a straight, fair game. When the Louisville men could not make a run they would throw pebbles and dust into the eyes of any of the players. At one time when Monroe pitched a ball away from the plate purposely to catch, a. runner at second, the batter jumped across the plate and struck straight down at the ball, simply to confuse Butler. A strike was not called. IIAIIRY WRIGHT FUND GAME. Pittsburg Will Meet the Champions at East Ohio-Street Park. Phillips, Cross and Roat have been working et the park every day elnee the club left. They are coming around nicely. iJoih the pitchers appear to be In good trim, and Saturday's hot weather seemed to be just what they needed. There' was little soreness left in the arm of either one of them by 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon, and a continuation of the good weather will put them right (nto last season's form. Ko-it's arm is also loosening up, and he was putting them across to first Saturday with- a free swing that was most encouraging. All three will be able to play this week if the weather Is right. Amos Rusie wis practicing with them Saturday. He is reducing his weight quite rapidly, and beginning to look hard as nails. To-day's game with Pittsburg will be. as everybody knows by this time, for the benefit of the Harry Wright monument fund. It will he not alone a worthy object to help out, but a good, stiff game if the champions keep up the pace they set at Cincinnati. It is likely Monroe will be given a "go, at hkj old neighbors einher tills afternoon or to-morrow, for they remain here for another game. Hastings and Goar are rlated for the box this afternoon, and the "fans" all know what sort of ball they pitch. Still, when Watkins's men cut loose they are liable to hit both these pitchers. They (have done It before, and under more trying circumstances. These two games with Pittsburg and the one Wednesday with Chdcago will draw big crowds. 1 Harry Wright Day.
