Mrs. Helen Armstrong, of Chicago, gave the first of a series of lectures on "Cookery Up to 'Date" yesterday afternoon at the German House. She was welcomed by a large audience of women, which Included many of the younger housekeepers of the city. The lecturer appeared In a pretty white gown, with a dainty cap and apron. She talked quickly and easily and spoke In a clear and distinct manner. During the afternoon a number of appetizing dishes were prepared, and when finished were passed cround so thT'all could taste. That people cannqt live on angel-food cake and meringues all the'time is one of Mrs. Armstrong's theories. Accordingly, the majority of her let ons will be devoted to the instruction as to the proper cooking of the simpler and more nourishing foodstuffs. Now and then a rich dainty of some kind will be thrown In, however. Tea cakes were the first results from the lecturer's deft ringers yesterday, and they came from the oven browned to, perfection and delicious to the taste. Potatoes au gratin were next on the programme, and following this came fluffy popovers, which were marvels of lightness. A thick, fat beefsteak, broiled and covered ith a rich brown mushroon sauce completf-d the lesson for the day. All who had the good fortune to be present yesterday were delighted with Mrs. Armstrong's unaffected and charming personality. She has the art of making her instruction both interesting and, entertaining and her quick repartee and occasional Jests added to the pleasure of the afternoon. The lesson to-day will be held at 2:30 o'clock and will include codfish balls, cocoa cream cake and pineapple -'jelly. It eel pes for the days logons are printed and distributed free. The lessons are also open to all without charge. Xew Incorporations. Merchants Ice and Cold Storage Company, of Terr Haute. $W,0u0, by Syrell Bresett. J. W.

BOARD HEARS OBJECTORS REMOXSTRAXCE AGAINST THE MAR TIXDALE-AVENl'E SEWER. Flans of the City Engineer Do. Not Meet with Approval TalbottAvenue Improvement. The Board of Public Works devoted most of its session yesterday to' hearing the remonstrants against the Martindale-avenue sewer. Final action on this Improvement has not been taken and about 90 per cent, of those within the district against which the cost Is to be assessed have remonstrated against the plan proposed by City Engineer Nelson. This plan continues the Fourteenth-street sewer in Martindale avenue to Twenty-third street, and east and west In Twenty-third street, with a nummer of lateral local sewers. In all the plan contemplates fifteen branches and involves a cost of $70,600. The remonstrators were represented by Hawkins & Smith. The remonstrance Is not against a sewer, but against the system devised by City Engineer Nelson. The remonstrators offered yesterday to acquiesce in a sewer that would follow the course of the old state ditch and permit direct connection of lateral sewers. They complain that the engineer's plan requires the drainage from Jackson park north of v the Atlas engine works to be run northward, then west and then south, when it should be brought directly south and could be by following the old state ditch course. They also allege that the plans adopted facilitate a scheme of the Atlas engine works to cover a large area of land and secure the vacation of streets and alleys, thus making certain portions of the district Inaccessible with out difficulty. They also complairf that the district to be assessed Is too small and that property benefited east and north of It should be added. City Engineer Nelson explained that the district was compact for the reason that a sewer in Thirtieth street would be necessary later and that the north and east property omitted would bear the burden of this. He also says there would be no difference in the cost of the state ditqh course plan and the one proposed. , .. TWENTIETH-STREET PAVEMENT. Property Owners Complain that They Were Not Legally Notified. Property owners on Twentieth street, between Talbott avenue and Bellefontaine streeL complained to the board yesterday that bids had been advertised for an asphalt roadway In that street without due notice td them. The bids were received yesterday, but the property owners, headed by David A. Myers and Maurice Donnelly, presented a lrge remonstrance. They asserted that when final action 'was postponed last November on this improvement the property owners were prepared to ask modification to block. On Feb. 6 final action was taken by the board, but the property owners learned nothing of it until one of .them discovered an advertisement for bids in a paper. The board took the subject under advisement. NO ACTION TAKEN. Boards of Works Fntls to Pass on the Sprinkling: Bids. The Board of Public Works did not act on the sprinkling bids received last Friday at yesterday's session. The entire day was taken up with the consideration of other matters. Attention has been called to the fact that one of the bids for sprinkling submitted Feb. 27, and rejected by the board, was by W. C. Buddenbaum & Co., and that it specifically agreed to do all the sprinkling for a period of one year for $16 per 10,000 square feet. This is $3.75 less than the present bid of the Kennlngtons.

Brewery Advertising Contracts Cannot De Broken New Offleer. The Methodist ministers of the city, at a meeting yesterday, elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President H. W. Baldrldge. Vice President Joshua Stansfleld. Secretary-Treasurer Merritt Machleh. Executive Committee C. W. Crook, II. II. Dunlavy and W. B. Farer. The ministers also adopted resolutions of condolence for the family of Rev. J. W. Catterson, who died recently. The efforts of the ministers to secure the withdrawal of brewery advertisements from the street cars of the city have availed nothing and the Rev. Robb Zaring reported yesterday that the agent of the advertising company in this city had told him that the contract of the advertiser had yet nine months to run and could not be broken. The Rev. Dr. Prentiss, for many years connected with Grant University, of Athens. Tenn., spoke on the illiteracy of the white population In the South. Mr. Prentiss's talk was interesting and instructive to the ministers, the majority of whom are greatly Interested in the home missionary work of the Methodist Church. The coming rally on the occasion of the bl-centenriial of Methodism to be held in Indianapolis for a week following May 3 was discussed informally. The ministers who are making the preliminary arrangements for the rally said that Bishop Fowler had accepted an invitation to attend and they hoped to secure the acceptance of Senators Fairbanks and Beverldge of invitations to speak at the meetings, which are to be held in Tomlinson Hall. VERMILLION RELEASED. Judge Alforil Acts on Report Made by Dr. John F. Gels. Judge Alford yesterday released William H. Vermillion on his own recognizance. Vermillion is accused of 'having attempted to poison his family by giving them candy which was declared to be poisoned by a physician who attended Mrs. Vermillion when she became sick after eating some of iL Vermillion's case was Investigated by the grand Jury at its last session, but no indictment was returned and the case was continued in order to permit a chemical analysis to be made of the candy. Dr. John F. Geis, deputy coroner, analyzed the candy and found it to be free from arsenic or other poisonous substances. MUST OBEY STATE LAW. Special Deputy W ill Get After Certain Foreign Corporations. A special deputy is to be sent from the office of the secretary of state to ascertain what foreign corporations are doing business In the State without having complied with the law which requires their Incorporation. This deputy, in all probability, will be Richard T. Burrell. The recent General Assembly appropriated $2,000 to be used in enforcing the law relating to foreign incorporations. Secretary of State Storms believes there are at least 1,000 corporations doing business without complying with the law. CITY NEWS ITEMS. Dr. C. I.

Despite their pleas for mercy, A. J. Banks and Thomas Angle, arrested for hunting on Sunday, were fined $10 and costs by Justice Smock yesterday. Angle's excuse for . violating the Sunday laws was that his wife, who Is very ill, wanted game to eat and to satisfy her whim he went hunting. v Mrs. Smith, an old woman, is absent from the home of Mrs. H. H. Preston, $23 College avenue, and Mrs. Preston, suspecting that she may be lost, has asked the assistance of the police in searching for her.

WOODRUFF 15 IN TOWN

SAYS HE WILL NOT GO TO ATLANTA IX TRADE FOR CIU11BINS. Active Practice Will Besrln This Morn ing Watkins Watches Youngsters Work-Game To-Morrow. Trains from every direction brought ball players to Indianapolis yesterday, and In the crowd that reported at Washington Park during the afternoon were nearly all of the- men signed for the coming season. All of the men are now here with the exception of Pickett, Tamsett, Coulter, Drury, Flick, Killen, Kellum and Heydon. Kellum and Heydon are not expected until the latter part of the week, but the others will probably reach Indianapolis to-day. Manager Watkins announced at the park yesterday afternoon that active training would begin at 9:30 this morning, when all of the players now in the city are expected to be at the park in uniform ready for the preliminary work. George Kihm was the last player to report yesterday. He came in a little too late to Join the crowd at the park, but reported to Manager Watkins at "pennant headquarters" in the Majestic building. Kihm Is in fairly good condition and will require only a short time to be ready for hard games. The winter's rest will be beneficial to him, Manager Watkins believes. The players who are now in the city are A. J, Hamilton, Tom Williams, Claude Gouzzie, J. Kennedy, Frank Frye, Charles A. Roberts, Ben T. Caffryn, J. T. Jones, Orvilla Woodruff. G. P. Kihm, Bert Farrell. Farrel, Qulesser, Hogriever, Fox and Mas sing. Most of the players were at the park yesterday afternoon and did a little light work In throwing and batting the ball and taking Jaunts around the park. THE WOODRUFF CASE. Woodruff has come to Indianapolis, but he has not been signed, and the chances are that he will not wear an Indianapolis uniform the coming season. Woodruff has been offered to Atlanta in trade for Pitcher Cribbins, but Woodruff said last night that he would not go to Atlanta. He said he intended asking Manager Watkins for his release from reservation and would then accept a berth with some other club. He has received offers from the Toronto and St. Joseph clubs, and may go to Toronto. There was some talk a few weeks ago that Woodruff might Join one of the Pacific coast outlawed teams, but there Is a private agreement, it is said, between the outlaw organization and the Amerncan Association clubs whereby players will not be allowed to Jump from one organization to the other. Manager Watkins expects Pfister and Cribbins to report here within a few days. They were both awarded to other clubs by the national board, but Pflster's release was purchased by Indianapolis from the Spokane club and Cribbins has been secured cn a trade. Just what action the Atlanta club will take if Woodruff doesn't report there is not known, but Atlanta may be given another player in trade, for Cribbins. Woodruff had several chances to sign an Indianapolis contract, but he made unreasonable demands and the Indianapolis management believes that should Woodruff desire to come to terms he would not give the club his best services. Pickett will probably fill Woodruff's position as utility man. The weeding out process will begin in a few days. Manager Watkins will give the youngsters who are here a trial and if they show that they cannot make good they will be released at once so they will have plenty of chances to sign elsewhere. Manager Watkins watched the work of some of the youngsters yesterday and is already satisfied that some of them will not do as they are too inexperienced for the; American Association. NATIONAL TO 3IEET HERE. Will Consider the Delehanty and Davis Cases In This City. For the first ,tlme in many years National League magnates' will assemble in Indianapolis next Thursday, and the session promises to be a very interesting one. The meeting will be held at the Grand Hotel, where accommdation has been reserved for twenty representatives of the major organization. The exact nature of the business to come before the meeting has not been made public, but it is said the Delehanty and Davis cases will occupy the attention of the League representatives during their stay in this city. Davis and Delehanty refuse to abide by the Cincinnati peace agreement and insist on playing with New York, although by the terms of the agreement New York Is not entitled to their services. Should they refuse to return the advance money secured from New York the question of punishment may be solved. The League will no doubt take official action on the cases and provide rules which will govern other cases that might follow. The New York team will play exhibition games in Indianapolis during the League meeting. New York is scheduled to play at Washington Park on Friday and Saturday and the meeting will probably last more than one day. First Game To-Morrow. In the first exhibition game of the season, to be played to-morrow afternoon at Washington Park, between the Indianapolis team and the Washingtons, a team of local amateurs. Manager Watkins will give several of the new men a chance to display their worth. Manager Watkins can Judge a ball player's ability by seeing him work out in practice and he very seldom makes a mistake. If the player shows that he has not the proper movements of an experienced man even in light practice work he is sure to be slated for early release. It Is believed that the team as It will open the 1903 playing season will be chosen within the next ten days. The flag pole will be raised at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon, prior to the game with the Washingtons. Sunday Ball at Detroit. DETROIT, Mich., March SO. Arrangements were concluded to-night between President D. J. Campau, of the Detroit Driving Club, and President S. F. Angus, of the Detroit American League baseball club, whereby the Sunday ball games of the Detroit team this season are to be plaved at the Grosse Pointe race track. A diamond will be laid out on the Infield just opposite the grandstand and the lease will be signed immediately after Mr. Campau's return from a Western trip on which he set out to-night.

The polo game at the Cyclorama last night for the benefit of the Indianapolis players on the original team was won by the All-Stars by a score of 7 to 2. It was the belief that Clemens was to be Included in the benefit and was to share In the receipts, but Clemens claims that the other players ruled him out, and on motion of Gavitt It was agreed that the players should each pay CJemens $1. Clemens refused to accept the money and later In the evening there was "something doing" between Clemens and Hlpson. Indianapolis enthusiasts believed that Clemens was to

Muncie now holds the record for the number of goals made by a team in one game and also for goals made in a single period, eight in the third. Muncie took it easy in the second and the Grays scored three in addition to one in the first. Lewis played brilliantly, getting one goal in three seconds. Score Muncie, 13; Elwood, 4.

The rooters took turns In hissing and applauding the locals, team changes being made in every period. Captain McGilvray himself retired during the second period. He reappeared in the last and played fast polo, but the locals could not cage the ball on his frequent passes in front. Racine's work was very fast, outClassing Anderson at all points. Last place is now assured

Last Game To-NIght. The last polo game scheduled In Indianapolis this season will be played to-night at the Cyclorama between Indianapolis and Muncie. BOTH IN PRIME FORM M'GOVERX UNDER WEIGHT AND CORBETT DOWN TO 127 POUNDS. Betting Still In Favor of the Latter at IO to 8 Referee Worried Over Foul Rule Agreement. SAN FRANCISCO, March 30. Eddie Graney, who will referee the Young Cor-bett-McGovern fight to-morrow night, visited both training quarters to-day. He wished to get an exact interpretation from the two pugilists of the agreement which Corbett and McGovern's managers signed last night. As the agreement reads, in case a foul is claimed by either side the decision of the referee must be withheld until after a reputable physician has made an examination and reported what Injury, If any, has been inflicted. Graney wants to have the full meaning of the agreement understood by all parties. It must be known whether the examination is to be made at the ringside and who will make iL In fact, all the circumstances surrounding an event must be clearly laid down. At noon to-day the betting odds on Corbett and McGovern remained at 10 to 8, McGovern still being the long end. Terry McGovern, who is well under weight. Is taking life easy at Alameda, This morning he did no work worth mentioning. He spent most of the time lying around headquarters chatting with his trainers and guests. He took a little recreation road work this afternoon. The claim is made for Corbett that he has at last reached the limit of 127 pounds. He had a hard day yesterday, and, though it was raining heavily, he took a six-mile tramp in the face of a fierce wind. He was attired in the garb of a patrolman of the life-saving station, so he did not , suffer from the downpour. To-day he was abroad early for active exercise. His trainers pronounce him in fine form and say that a warming-up exercise and a rub-down tomorrow will wind up his work. O'Brien Bests Choynskl. PHILADELPHIA, March 30. Jack O'Brien, of this city, to-night outpointed Joe Choynskl in a six-round bout at the Washington Sporting Club. Choynskl was no match for O'Brien, whose failure to score a knockout was due to the. lack of force behind his blows. Choynskl started well, but appeared to lose heart under O'Brien's unceasing rain of lefthand Jabs. From the second until the last round Choynski's object seemed to be to stay the limit. The second and fourth rounds were particularly tame and the referee warned the men. In the sixth O'Brien was more aggressive and subjected his opponent to a severe drubbing, but his jabs and punches lacked the power to put Choynskl td sleep. LIGHT ON RING. Reflector Will Be Placed Above the Squared Circle at Cyclorama. The lighting arrangements at Cyclorama rink to-morrow evening for the boxing con tests will be excellent. A large reflector Is being made to be hung over the ring, and six or eight arc lights will be clustered under the reflector. During the rounds the other lights in the building will be cut off so that the effect will be perfect. The re flector will be so arranged that it will not In any way obstruct the view from any seat in the building, and the light will shine only on the ring. All of the contests will be for decisions on scientific potets. This will make all of the bouts interesting. The semi-wind-up of six rounds betvisen Patsy Hogan and Jack Ryan Is attracting nearly as much attention as the main bout of ten rounds between Hugo Kelly and Harry Walsh Ryan has done his training in Indianapolis, while Hogan worked out at Montpelier. Kelly and his trainers are expected In the city to-day. Walsh will arrive on Wednesday morning. Seats are selling fast, and the indications point to a crowded house. Won by Tlsh-IOIIngoes.

Held Would-Be Assailant at Bay. OWINSVILLE. Ky., March 30. A German giving his name as Boeticher entered the home of Mrs. Watt Peters, on the outskirts of town, to-day. and. going to an upstairs room where Mrs. Peters's daughter was alone, attempted to assault the girl. She succeeded in obtaining a pistol, however, and held him at bay until her mother, who was in the lower part of the house, could summen an officer. Boeticher was arrested, but feeling is running high, and It Is feared that he may be severely dealt with.

YounfiT Men Who Followed It Won a i Bit of Honey. A sneeze as a tip on the winner of a horse race is something new in sporting "dope." but it was tried yesterday and found even more reliable than all the form sheets that had been compiled. A large crowd was gathered in a local poolroom to hear the result of the big Montgomery Handicap at Memphis, in which the much-touted McChesney proved such a heart-breaking disappointment to his many admirers, and t hree young men were discussing .the possibilities offered In a card on one of the earlier races. Arachne, or, as the bookmaker's clerk had spelled It, "Arachue,'" was one of the entries, and he was quoted at 4 to 1. One of the ycung men suggested him as a possible winner, but he weakened when one of the others proposed to lay a small. bet on the horse. At that moment the third young man was seized with a violent sneezing tit. "Achue! Achue! Achue: he gasped. "That's it Arachue s a cinch!" said the second. "Come on. lie carries my money." The one who had originally picked the horse as a good thing refused to take the sneeze as a straight "hunch." but the others put their money on the horse, and he won by a city block. He was considered an outsider, and the "dope" writers had not even mentioned him as one of the possibilities, but he got all the money. McChesney. In the next race, who was "doped" to win bv every sporting writer in the country, did not even get a call from barrier to wire. Moral forget atl about the "done" and form sheet sure things and play hunches, sneezes, coughs or dreams; even a nightmare may win as a dark horse.
