A CARD we publish from an esteemed and
thoroughly honorable gentlemen, concerning
the proposed endowment by Mr.. DePauw of
Asbury University, gives us the opportunity
to do away, once for all, it is to be hoped
with the miserably unjust criticism that Mr.,
DePauw is seeking to force the trustees of
Asbury to change the name of that institu-
ton to crafty his vanity. There
is not a shadow of truth in the
ungenerous suggestion. Mr.. DePauw can do
as he pleases with his own. 1t is an honora-
BILE ambition that has come to him to endow
an institution of learning that shall bear his
had not even determined that the institution
should be located in the State of Indiana,
but was looking toward Kansas or Colorado
as its Site But the trustees of Asbury, hear
ing OF Mr.. DePauw's intention made the
proposition to him TO change the current OF
his proposed gift to Asbury, and in all the
negotiations thus far had Mr. DePauw has
exhibited spirit of the greatest patience,
and evinced praiseworthy desire to
assist this old and honored Metho-
dist institution if its friends and
supporters should supplement the efforts and
endorse the action of its trustees and faculty.
Whether the proposal made to Mr.. DePauw
by the authorities of the university is the
wisest and best, is a question upon which
there may be difference of judgment; but
Mr. DePauw can in no wise be blamed for
being willing to change plans originally de-
termined upon in order to do what those in
manent advantage of Asbury. Mr.. DePauw
is not the sutton in this matter.

The Greenback Party Collapsed.

Governor Porter, of Indiana, who arrived
in this city yesterday, on his way home from
an eastern jaunt, in an interview on the sub
ject OF politics. said the Greenback party in
Indiana had entirely collapsed as a party, and
the greater portion of them had returned to
the Republican party, thereby giving that
organization at least 10, 900 more votes in 1884
than il poled in 1880. The Governor left for
Indianapolis this morning.

over Frank Landers marked the close of one

The Mcdonald Boom.

Philadelphia Times.
Mr., Mcdonald is a clever and honest man,
but the attempt to manufacture a boom for
him failed, because it had no strong popular
sentiment behind it. 1t savored of the lit
erary bureau, and had the physical appear
ance of having been nurtured on soothing
syrup. Judging from appearances, it is too
far gone for the galvanic battery, or even the
political resurrectionist. to be effective.

The Capital of the Laborlng Man.

NbWs.
A laboring mans muscle and skill are his
capital, and he is entitled to fair return fol-
the quantity and quality of his investment
Laws should not Disseminate in favor of one
kind of capital and against another. That
is aristocratc despotism. and it is unnatural
to our country and people. There should
not be an aristocraey of wealth any more
than an aristocracy of muscle, but all should
have a share of this worlds surplus.

THE city of London contains an area of about
122 square miles. 1t will surprise many that an
American city will soon embrace no less than
about 5000 square miles, though the population
will hardly equal that of London. The mayor of
Santa Babara, CAL, is seeking to consolidate
city and county in order to save about $1,000 a
year in municipal expense, The town would
then have the county's boundary for its own, and
1t would be no unusual thing for citizens to have
from $4,000 to 10000 acres in their front yards.
America is bound to keep up with the eastern
world and doesn't care much how it has to be
done.

THE transfer of all the internal revenue dis
tricIs has been completed. and from this time
forward there will be but three collectors In
stead OF SIX, as heretofore, Messrs. Cumback,
Moon and Veatchjretiring, and Messrs Kirkpat-
rick Mckay and Carter remaining in charge of
the new DISTRICTS The gentlemen who retire
take with them the highest testimonials OF their
efficiency and faitafuness from the government,
and the respect and confidence of their fellow
citizens, The district which has been in charge
of Collector Cumback has been the largest and
heaviest in the State, paying fully If not more
than half the aggregate amount of reve.
nue. paid from Indiana. During his
term of Office more than S35, 100000 have been
collected, statement which gives idea Of
the enormous extent of the revenue system,
which is just beginning to put off some of its
new features In the collection Of this large
amount of money not n cent has been lost, nor
has there been a tslnt of corruption attaching TO
any officer. This .3a record to be justly proud
of, and the same is to be said to ex-Collectors
Veatoh and Moon, whose districts, though
mailer, have been faithfully and efficiently
served. The cry in the Democratic party OF
"turn the raseals out" is sufficiently answered
by the facts of the internal revenue collections
OF the country.

ST. LOUIS people are getting good deal OF
amusement out of the last will and testament Of
a man named Steith, who died there recently.
steith was an old, cOarsely dressed man, who
had lived a sort of hermit life in a crowded
neighborhood. When he died he was buried by
the city, fifteen cents being the extent of the
weals. found among his effects. A will was dis
covered, however bequeatting to various char
liable institutions property valued at nearly
nc million dollars. The most of this property,
which he describes with great particularly, con-
sists of business blocks in the of the city,
owned BIZ other citizens The court house and
ground upon which it stands is also included,
besides $4,000 alleged to he in a savings bank,
but which has nor been discovered. The leg
atees win not realize much, but the old man
wanted 10 show that his intentions were good,
and perhaps he has realized on them.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

1t will be apparent to any one, who will
examine SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside
from the necessary thickness for engraving
and polishing, a large proportion of the
precious metal used is needed only to stiffen
and hold the engraved portions in place and
supply the necessary solidity and strength
The surplus gold is actually needless so far
as utility and beauty are concerned. In
JAMES BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH
CASES, this waste of precious metal is over
come, and the SAME sOLIDITY AND STRENGTH
produced at from onethird to one-half of the
usual cost of solid cases. This process is OF
the most simple nature, as follows: plate
Of nickle composition metal, especially
adapted to the purpose, has two plates Of
SOLID GOLD soldered one on each side. The
three are then passed between polished steel
rollers, and the result is a strip of heavy
plated composition, from which the cases,
backs, centres, bezels, &C., are cut and
shaped by suitable dies and formers. The
gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to adj
nit of all kinds of chasing, engraving and
enamelling; the engraved cases have been
carried until worn perfectly smooth by time
and use without removing the gold.
THIS is THE ONLY CASE MADE
WITH TWO PLATES OF SOLID GOLD
AND WARRANTED BY SPECIAL GER
TIFICATE.
