The congregation of the Seventh Presbyterian church will make a farewell call upon the Rev. J. B. Brandt to-morrow evening. The Christmas-tide festival ef the Sunday achool of the Holy Innocents wfll be held at the church at 7 o’clock to-morrow evening. William Lennox, aged seventy, residing on Fayette street, died yesterday, with ola j age. He was the oldest tailor m the city, 1 but for the part fifty-four years had been inI capacitated from work. A North Pennsylvania street citizen wants to know what became of the street car which went north early last evening? He waited many a weary minute last night and this morning for its return. The lady dying on the Bee Line train near Gallon yesterday was Mrs. Mamie Ball, daughter of Mrs. Moriarty, 248 South Delaware street. She was a sister-la law of John Ktley, of the Park Theater, and was aged 32. Her death is attributed to heart disease, and her remains will reach this city to-night. The Charlotte Thompson entertainment for the bereflt of George H. Thomas post, G. A. K., begins to-night at English’s, and will continne the remainder of the week.

Complaint is made df the “elennt nuisance’’ committed by the drivers of fine teams who stop their vehicles on the street crossings, that the ‘'droppers" may alight, often keeping pedestrians standing in the middle of the street, or obliging them to walk around in the slop. The curb 8tone is a good enough place for common vehicles to slop.

MF.AT INSPECTOR WANTED. - Tw o Car Loads of Cholera Hogs Reported Sold on Yesterday—The Local Butchers

Favor the Inspectorship.

Dr. E. 8. Elder, secretary of the state and • city health board, has decided to petition i the council for the passage of an ordinance. I creating the ottlce of meat inspector. The butchers of the city will join him in the petition. At a meeting held last night this question was fmly discussed. The stock men opposed the appointment of an inspector on the ground that crippled, or “slow,” hogs would become unmarketable. They urged that they found ready sale for such animals in Cincinnati and Chicago, but Secretary Elder is disposed to question this assertion, and is of the opinion that they are sold at home. He has received letters from the Cincinnati health board, together with a copy of the ordinance regulating the sale of meat, showing that all diseased and crippled animal-; are slaughtered or shot and their carcasses confiscated. The city has four inspectors, the first of whom is paid $100 per month, and the others $60. Dr. Elder thinks that Indianapolis should have three inspectors, whose duty should be to examine all meats placed on sale at retail maiketsand stamp the same. Consumers would thereby be protected against unwholesome and impure food, and the effect would be the ruin of the disreputable business engaged in at the stock yards. At the meeting last night a stock man said two car loads of hogs suffering from cholera had been disposed of at the yards daring the day. He declined to di-

The Proposed Church Union. - The Foutth Presbyterian congregation will thla evening take some action on the proposed union with the Tabernacle. It ia felt by many that such a unloa would be for the best Interests of Presbj teriana In this r city, and add largely to the aggressive force , of the denomination. It is reported that some of the Fourth church people are opposing the union on the ground that they i will give up a property worth $40,000 in the j union, and receive property not worth more than $15,000.

Griffith were relevant and material. Second —That as Mr. Johnson himself had used these letters for that purpose, he hod thereby taken them out of the protection of the law. The ruling was not altogether unexpected, but the necessity of making public the terrible secret which these letters reveal was something which Captain Johnson can not be censured for wishing to avoid. They will be opened before the notary this afternoon, and made part of the court record, unless a compromise is reached between the contestants that will svotd farther litigation. The letters are numbered from 1 to $4 inchuive, and the last of fifteen recite the story of Mrs. Johnson’s relations with Malor Henry, and one under date of Nov. 23 makes a full and complete confession. Their authenticity has been questioned, but the internal evidence of their genuineness Is so overwhelming that upon this point st least there can be little or no rebuttal.

CANE GROWERS. The Association Re-Eleets the Old OMeers — Letter af Regret from Mr.

Mitchell.

The Cane Growers' association elected the following officers yesterday afternoon: Presleent, A. Furnas, Danville; vice president, E. W. Duaniag, West Point: treasurer, W. F. Sietzman, Center Valley; secretary, W. L. Anderson, Ladoga. An address on “Hydro Carbons as Food” was read by Dr. T. W. Johnson, of Danville, and was followed by an interesting discussion. Professor H. W. Wiley lectured last evening on “The Polariacope; its .use to the Sugar Maker.” He explained tie use of the instrument and gave a practical illustration of its working. He sold sugar could not always be judged by its color, at the coloring was of such little difficulty. Good grades might sometimes hare an inferior appearance, while a bad quality could be

given a good coior.

The session of the association this forenoon was devoted excinslvely to a discussion on macbineiy,and an exchange of views and explanation of methods of defecation. Nearly every member present gave his experience in the manufacture of sugar aud syrup, and there were but few whose plans were the same. Letters from cane-growers living in all parts of the country were received, snd some of them were read. Robert Mitchell, of the agricultural board, In a letter expressing his bis regret at not being in attendance at the conventioa, said: “Fhope you will have a profitable time, and, by an exchange of experience ana practice, be able to eradicate from tbe sorghum syrup that peculiar whang farewell taste so common to the country-

made syrup.”

This afternoon Prof. Wiley exhibited specimens from the department at Washington of sugar made by tbe latest Improved processes from Indiana cane. It was his opinion, as well as that of many others, that forty per cent of the Juice of cane was lost in the manufacture of sugar and syrup by the cid methods. E. W. Denning related his experience in sorgbnm and sugar-making at West Point, Ind., which was followed by a paper by ex-Governor Coleman, of Missouri. “The sorghum sugar Industry of the United States” will be the subject of a lecture, li-

i chnrch people because of their property. L We are not making overtures to them. Some ! years ago the Third church sought a union | with tbe Fourth, which declined to unite, ! and has continued its separate existence in the fa£e of many discourajjmeats, without j succeeding in its attempt to ouild up a strong i organization. Some of its members now fet-1 disinclined to further continue that experiment and are anxious to form a union with us. We will be glad to have them cjme. if they can meet ns in a spirit of love and mutual coneersion. but not otherwise. To effect a ; perfect an<f harmonious union, I do not -doubt that all our officers would resign in i order that the whole congregation might ! immediately have a voice in tbe eburih’s spiritual and temporal interest. Wc are not knocking at their door; we are simply ready to meet them half-way and make the rest of the Journey together, if that seems advisable, feeling that a reduction in Hie number i of church orgauizations of our denomination in Gils city would result lu more real, available working force.”

Railroad Netes. Commissioner Fink, of the trank line pool, 1 as ordered a reduction of ten cents on the hundred pounds on cotton, because the rats* have been cut. The new rate goes into effect to-morrow. Snow shoveling is a new industry on Indianapolis lines. The Union company has been employing a hundred men to load and unload the snow trains that are hauling the »now from the tracks to the fills west ol the rifer. Business is so lax with the railroads that it is believed all lines in this section will show a decrease in earnings for December. The Pullman Car company owns about 000 cars, and most of them are In service. The Pullman sleeping car ticket office in the union depot was opened to-day, and tickets are now on sale. Information will be furnished by the agent with regard to toutesand rates. A reorganization of the Cincinnati, New Orleana A Texas Pacific (Cincinnati Southern) will take place, it is understood, Jannarv 1. The traffic of the system will be divided, E. P. Wilson to fieneral passenger agent, and Cal. H. Callbran, of the Alabama Great Southetn, general freight agent. Edgar Johnson, (Governor Holby’s partner) will become general solicitor of the entire system. _ All the YTay From Canada. Thomas writes to Ma; cember 24, vised that yonr state, some time ago, had adopted a scheme for paying off the state debt by a sinking fond, to which any person was at liberty to contribute any amouat, and a certain per centage would be allowed on the amount contributed, annually, during tbe life of the contributor; the amount to become the property of the slate at his death, free from any charge. I am now fifty-six years of age and have about $1,500 to invest, so that it may yield me an annual income sufficient for my maintenance.” The letter closes by asking for the fnilert part iculars relative to the method and means by which he can take advantage of this novel system of insurance. The mayor has answered, that he knows nothing of such a proposition upon the part of the state, nor can he imagine how Mr. Hunt came in possession of such a scheme, unless there is an ingenious fraud somewhere afoot acting under pretended authority of the rtrte.

Washington, D. C., December 27.—Prof. J. R. Dodge, statistician of the agricultural department, has just completed his preliminary estimates of the principal crops for lb88. It shows that potatoes, all roots aad eats were grown in unusual luxuri ance, _ and yielded abundantly. Of corn, the Professor aaye, ths average yield per acre this year ia nearly twenty-three bushels, more exactly, by preliminary estimates, 23 7, which is 12 per cent, lees average than the yield for a series of years, or a total of 1,551,066,835 bushels. This stands for quantity; quality is another consideration. If soft corn is cribbed in masses, and after a few weeks of mild, moist weather is badly injured or even spoiled, it does not change the fact that the corn was grown and harvested. It is doubtless true that the quality of com north of parallel 40 is worse than for many years, increasing, practlcallv, the' amount of shortage indies ted by rhe number of bushe’s. As a whole, the corn grown in 1883 in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Daksta added to half that grown in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska, would make 400,000,000 bushels—only one-fourth of a whole crop—so that a possible depreciation of 40 per cent, in all of it would be equivalent to a 10 per cent, reduction in value of the entire crop. Our Illinois agent makes the quality 31 per cent, less than the average in that state. An effort will be made later, after the worst of the crop has been fed, to get the feeding value of the year’s product It is not proposed, however, to reduce the product to an equivalent of merchantable corn, or “sound” corn, as no corn ever is

free from immaturity and imperfections.

now visible as a level plateau of gran, and the rlvujet Is always dry in summer except a hen heavy rains swell it into a temporary torrent. Near tbe large spring, four miles from Lexington, on the Lexington A Freakfort railroad, is land once owned by my grandfather, Thomas Lewis. Just aW* where that once large spring pours its waters into the Town Fork of Elkhorn, our family bad a great flouring mill; now a large cora snd grass field fills the site of the dam, aad generally the stream is either dry or one can step over it, except when swollen with heavy rain storms. So much for facts aad reason-
