Ax INDIANAPOLIS ACTRESS OF NOTE. —As Miss Kitty Mayhew is a native of Indianapolis, adaughter of Royal Mayhew, a former Treasurer of Indiana, and known by some of our readers and further, that she is one of the attractions of the Rankin Comedy Company which will make a first appearance at the grand Opera House this evening, for a season of six nights and a matinee, we give place to the following from the Milwaukee Daily Sentinewhich speaks for itself:
MILWAUKEE, Sept, 27,1871.
Miss Kitty Mo yhew DEAR MADAME: As tho season of the highly popular and excellent Rankin Comedy Company is rapidly approaching a close, after a six weeks very agreeable acquaintance, we, the undersigned citizens, as a means of testifying the gratification your professional talent has afforded and the esteem universally manifested for vou in the social circle, respectfully ask von to names an evening prior to your departure, when your many friends may assemble at tho Opera House to bid you a roluetant farewell. Respectfully yours, If. S. Manvelle, H. Bosworth & Son,
If. B. Pearson, JO. S. Van Buren Wm. Becker, C. H. Nash, E. Sanderson, C. M. Cottrill, John Mitchell, H. S. Dodgo,
\V. If. Cillette, M. f). Simison, M. L. Dousnian, Hawley Cole, Chas. Andrews, John Thorson, Andrew Robinson, F. JiUdington, II. Jjudington, Jr.,
KEPTJY.
.Wv.s'.sr.v. Pierce, Whaling, Sanderson, C. A. 2s ash, Bosworth, and others GENTLEMEN—T am exceedingly gratified for your kind consideration in recognizing my humble efforts to please in the line of. my professional duties. Permit me, with the consc.nl. of Messrs. Rankin and Nunnemacher, to name Saturday evening as the most convenient for the fulfillment of your request and be assurod, gentlemen, that your approbation and that of tho public is my constant aim and ambition.
Very respectfully, KITTY MAYIIEW.
We learn from a gentleman of this city, who formerly boarded with the Mayhew family, at Indianapolis, during a session of the Legislature, while Miss Kitty was very small, thatshe was an uncommonly precocious child, and thatshe is but about seventeen or eighteen years of age at this present time, though she has made a very enviable reputation. She has been on the stage twelve years, as we are informed by the same gentleman. Don't fail to see Miss Kitty, the talented young Indianapolis actress.
THE ADVERTISING- SWINDLE.—The Chicago Times, in a late elaborate article on "swindling," has this to say concerning tho advertising swindler: "He coaxes the unwary merchant into giving his 'ad.' for a hundred spurious dodges. He is going to have a fabulous number of hotel registers manufactured, or a lot of directories made, to be hung in rural post offices and railway depots or is about to issue, an advertising sheet for grautitous 'distribution,' devoted to the Lord knows what or is a painter, and being about to sally forth to bedaub the rocks and hills of a beautiful land with his impudent announcements, he wheedles the tradesman into letting his name be associated with his vilest of advertising swindles. Or be is going to ornament telegraph poles iu the same manner or to rig up a vehicle, containing notices, to be driven about the streets or has frames for your cards in divers public places or, in short, wishes to defraud by some specious game, the advertiser out of his hard-earned money. He has a thousand or more methods of perpetrating his frauds, from proposals to disfigure street lamps and board fences, to painting your announcement on the front of a country pulpit. Rut the basis of all his propositions is arrant cheating. Advertising is one of the most blessed boons vouchsafed to tho commercial world but the columns of a newspaper are tho only medium through which the desired end of the advertiser can be obtained!"
A RIIEASANT AFFAIR.—Our young friend Gus. A. Walkop, of Arnaud's Pharmacy, gave a few of the more fortunate ofliis numerous friends, a wine and oyster supper Saturday evening, in honor of Sir Von Bummel, Punch Wheeler, which was one of the pleasautest little occasons with which those fortunate enough to be present ever enjoyed. Of course, Punch, and all present wore happy. After enjoying some of Punch's manifestations on a piano, and some liquid Punch at Gus' room, the jolly little party adjourned to Breuning's restaurant, under Tom Langford's wholesale establishment, where the jolly Frenchman had served up some of the finest of those luscious bivalves, Saddle Rock oysters, of which he makes a specialty.
Then a superb feast was enjoyed, jokes were cracked, and the corks of pop bottles were popped out, the jolly host was numerously toasted, until all were happier, whenauotheradjournment was had to the room of the genial host where more music and a general good time is said to have been enjoyed by the entire party. Mr. Gus. Walkop's hospitality will never be forgotten by those who enjoyed it upon this occasion —neither will the jolly Frenchman, who knows so well how to dish out the Saddle Rock oysters.
OBITUARY.—Mr. Ed. R. Bobbins, well known iu this city as a kind and affectionate husband and friend, died at the residence of Wm. Eaglesfield, in this city, yesterday morning, after a long Illness from consumption. Mr. Bobbins was formerly engaged in business at this place, but his health failing him, he sold out his property and, with his family, went West, but not getting any better they returned, and now his sorrow-stricken wife and numerous friends mourn his premature and sad demise. He was heavily insured, we understand.
THE amateur showmen who gave an acrobatic performance late Saturday night under the management of an expoliceman, as ring blaster, without license, are hereby notified to appear at the office of City Clerk Schwiugrouber aud pay their license at once, or the "game pig" will be confiscated, and as a consequence there will be no more of the entertainments.
SERVICES AT ASBURY M. E. CHURCH YESTERDAY.—The services at Asbury M. E. Church yesterday were conducted by Rev. S. Coleman, and Rev. James Hill, the pastor. The church was well filled at lOi, and at the close of the sermon a large number ol professing Christians presented themselves at the altar a3 seekers of full salvation.
The prayer meeting at 4 P. M. was largely attended and the devotions were very spirited. A larga concourse attended at night, crowding the house to its utmost capacity, aud after an excellent sermon by Rt v. S. Coleman, eve#y portion of available space about the altar was occupied with persons kneeling and seeking the blessing of holiness. Great seriousness and at the same time great religious excitement prevailed iu the immense congregation. There evidently is a great revival spirit in old As* bury. Many of the unconverted who were in attendance yesterday are seriously considering the subject of religious life.
The meetings are to be continued through the week, to be followed by the quarterly meeting next Saturday and Sunday.
NOTHING LUCE IT.—An urchin of some fourteen summers, with a large bundle of Saturday Evening Mails on his arm, accosted a well-known gentleman of this city, on the streets Saturday evening, with: Mr. buy a Mail? The gentleman told him he believed not, when the little fellow, in his desperation, seeing bankruptcy staring him in the face, blubbered out: Oh Mr. please buy a Mail, boo, boo, boo! The kind-hearted gentleman could not resist that and purchased one, and we presume the boy played that little game until he had sold out the bunch. Nothing like creating sympathy.
TRAVEL over the Vandalia Short Line Saturday night was rather extra good, though not much so. On the train bound west Saturday night there were on board eighty-seven passengers holding firstclass through tickets who were accommodated iu the sleeping palace coaches, the Westerly and China, two of the most elegant traveling palaces ever placed on any road. The Westerly is without a rival anywhere, as it is the finest car ever built by the Pullman Company.
GRAND LARCENY—During business hours and in broad day light Saturday some thief or thieves entered the office of Esliman, Tuell & McKeen, lumber merchants, and abstracted therefrom about $20,000 worth of notes and papers of value to the firm, but of none whatever to the thief or thieves. In auother column will be found a reward for the return of the papers and |'no questions asked."
THE corner-stone of the Sullivan county Graded School building will be laid at Sullivan, Saturday^ October 7. The exercises of the occasion will be conducted by the Masons of that place and will be attended by the members of the various school districts and masonic lodges in the county. We acknowledge the receipt of an invitation to attend.

Immense Destruction of Property.
Terrible Accident in the Same Three Men Injured.

[Associated Press Dispatches.]
CHICAGO, Sept. 30.—About 10 o'clock this morning an accident of a serious character occurred at the new Calvary Presbyterian Church now erecting at the corner of Indiana avenue and Twentyfirst street. Whire raising trusses to the roof for their positions on top of the walls, the derrick gave. way, and heavy timbers on which three carpenters were standing were precipitated to the ground, a distance of nearly seventy-five feet. It was supposed all were killed, but on rescuing them it was discovered that none were killed, but all seriously injured. Their names are Nicholas Kilberbesa, H. Lindston and Frederick Kimball. They will probably all recover.
A terrible conflagration occurred in this city this afternoon. About two o'clock fire was discovered in the immense brick building situated on the west side of .State street, between the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad track and Sixteenth street, known as the Burlington Warehouse, one part of which was used for storage of merchandise, aud the other part as a Government bonded warehouse. In the former department were goods belonging to nearly two hundred firms, and valued at eight hundred thousand dollars, which are all destroyed, while in the bonded warehouse were bonded goods worth three million dollars, all of which escaped injury by reason of a thick fire wall.
On the goods destroyed there is an aggregate insurance of seven hundred thousand dollars. "The fire was first discovered in a large lot of broom corn in the central portion of the building, belonging to Alberton & Bird. Immediately the fire extinguishers were brought to bear upon it, but failed to arrest the progress of the flames and before the arrival of the engines they burst out with terrible fury in every direction. The building was owned by S. M. Nickerson, President of the First National Bank. His loss is $50,000 covered by insurance. The fire has been accompanied by loss of life. Charles Stearns, driver for Austin & Root, is known to have been burned t\ death. It is feared that three other men have suffered alike fate, as they were seen in the midst of the flames where escape seemed impossible. Several firemen were also more or less injured by the falling walls. It has not yet been discovered how the fire originated. That portion of the building known as Burlington Hall escaped destruction.
The following are among the victims bv the fire to-day: Wm. H. Calvin, $2,000 Jos. Jones, $3,500 S. W. & M. O. Bride, $5,000 Cullin Sprague, $3,500 C. W. Bancroft, $5,000 J. W. Allen, ageut for Woods' reapers, $55,000 Stewart, Aldrich & Co., aud Garland Homes & Co., $6,000 Linu, Reed & Co., $2,500 J. Keller & Co., $2,500 J. R. Fisher, $0,000 Underwood Co., $6,500 Jno. Williams, $2,000 First National Bank, $20,00 Herdman & Laramie, $2,800 Hawkins & Co., $30,000 Taylor & Wright, $15,000 Carrol & Thomas, $18,000 Baal & Co., $75,000 W. L. Hubbard, $14,000 McDermet & Ortel, $1,500.
The following insurance companies are sufferers by the burning of the Burlington warehouse to-day: Fultos, Excelsior, North American, Knickerbocker, Washington, Actual, New Amsterdam, Security, Laman, Home, Manhattan, Beek man & Lorillard, Commercial, and North America, all of New York New England, Mutual, Independent, and Hide & Leather, of Boston Home, Fireman, Pacific, Union, Occidental and Enterprise, ot. Philadelphia Providence, Washington, Hope, American and Atlantic, of Providence Putnam, Phoenix and Hartford, of Hartford Teutonia, Sun and Cleveland, of Cleveland Commercial and Capital City, Albany North British, Liverpool, London and Globe, Liverpool Buffalo and various Chicago companies. The companies enumerated cover the loss of about $200,000.

From the New York Herald,
A Saratoga Scandal.
The knowing ones among the guests still remaining at Saratoga are rolling a sweet morsel of scandal under their tongues,from which much juiciness seems to have been extracted. The parties af fected are the wife of a leading turfman, who has a large stable of horses at the Springs, and a young man who has been sporting it in Saratoga during the past summer. She is young, pretty and vivacious he gay and handsome, and in New York, where he resides, is known as one of those "Broadway statues" whose only mission seems to be to lure unsuspecting victims to destruction. They met one morning at the spring there was a look, a frisk of the handkerchief, au acquaintanceship formed, and in a little while a fallen woman and a dishonored husband. The gossips talked and their words reached the ears of the wronged hus band. He is a cool, determined, resolute man. He went straight to the "swell," charged him with his crime, and demanded confession. The young man denied- his guilt. "Tell me all," said the other, "or I will kill you on the spot." The guilty wretch saw in his look the determination of a man who meant what he said, and to save his worthless life he told the story bf his crime which had undone the husband. The wife was next interviewed—she denied, protested, begged, entreated, but confessed at last. A lawyer was sent for and the property which had been presented to her by her husband was deeded back to him. They parted forever. The next step was an action for divorce, which is now pending before a referee in the village. It may be mentioned that one of the sad feature of the case is the previous history of the husband and the effect this blight may have upon his life. Previous to marriage he \fras a dissipated, hardened wretch. Marriage reformed him—thoughts of his wife made him a prudent, careful, temperate man, though, perhaps, a too indulgent, petting husband. He is said to be utterly overwhelmed with grief, and his friends fear that the disgrace of his wife may drive him back to his former intemperate course of life.
A woman, at Oberlin, Ohio, collected money for the soldiers' orphans, and used it to buy a bonnet. She said orphans, after they got used to it, could get along without bread,but women have to have bonnets.
