Rushville's CITY Charter.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
RUsHvILLE, May "a petition has been cir
culating among our citizens for the past week,
praying that the city charter be annulled and
the place restored to its former corporate powers.
Several causes have been presented, chief
among which is the great expense incurred in
running a city government. Recently the Com
mon Council, in readjusting the salaries of city
officers, raised that of the mayor from $3.50 per
annum to $500; councilmen, $75 to 800 per
mum. At the time of the incorporation as
a city, in September, 1883, the place was strug-
Cling with heavy debt, and the law and order
portion of the town was sorely pressed by the
total disregard of the moral code. Gam
bling was openly and freely INDUCED in. and the
peace was frequently disturbed by drunken
carousals. Since the adoption of city govern.
ment the greater part of the old town debt has
been liquidated and the credit placed on firm
basis. The thorough work Of the city marshal
has closed up all gambling resorts, and the NOR
ais of Rushville placed on standard with those
of any city of like size in the land 1t is report
ed that petition will also be presented the
council requesting their resignation.
Enforcing the Liquor Law at Logansport.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
LoGANsPoRT, May 29-In accordance with
instructions from Mayor Bringhurst the police
last evening served notice on the saloon keepers
of this city to close their places of business
promptly at II o'clock. The Sunday law will also
be enforced There were loud protests from the
saloon-keepers, but all complied with the order.
For years no attention whatever has been paid
to the law by the saloon-keepers
of this city. There are half-dozen saloons
that have never closed in years at night, or on
Sunday, and the enforcement of the law marks
an innovation. Mayor Bringhurst is backed by
the better element Of the community, and it is
pretty safe to say that during the next two years
liquor dealers here will be compelled to reeog-
nize that there is law Oh the statute books re-
garding their business.

Fred Doug1ass at Limco1m,s Bali.

Ben. Perley Poore in Boston Budget.
Fred Douglass was at first denied admis-
sion to the ball given on the night of Mr..
Lincoln's second Inauguration, but some
one told the officious usher whom he had
treated so cavalierly, and the young man
fastened to admit him. Almost the first
head he saw looming up among the crowd
was Mr.. Lincoln's, and the latter seeing him
also, called out, in his CHEEKY, familia
voice, "Come this way, Fred Douglass, come
here, want to see YOU" Then, grasping
his hand. he said: 81 want to ask you what
you thought of my speech this afternoon;
saw you standing there in the mud while
was talking.'' Mr.. Douglass answered:
president Lincoln, it was an inspired
hour" Mr.. Douglass then went on to re-
hearse some of the wonderful utterances Of
that Inauguration speech that had burned
themselves on his brain. Continuing, he
said: 'sMr. Lincoln then introduced myself
and Mrs. TO Vice President Johnson at
his side. Mr.. Johnson scowled, then pres
emily smoothed his face into civility; but I
said to Mrs. --, as We walked away:
THAT man is no friend to such as you and

in London some time in July, and that the
young couple will come to this country on
their wedding tour, spending August at
Newport. This is great disappointment to
many of the expectant BRIDES friends, and
| several of them are going to London espe-
cially to attend the wedding, which will be a
brilliant affair. 1t will probably be solem-
| nized in st. Georges church.
The bridal dress, which has been ordered
from Worth's in Paris, is to be of heavy white
| satin, made with full court train, and de-
collete bodice. The trimming will consist
| of dounces of old point lace, with veil of
the same, which has been in the BRIDES
| family for over one hundred years. Her
ornaments will be pearls presented by the
groom. and she will wear diamond pend
| ant and bracelet given by her father.
Many of the dresses for her trousseau are
to be made in this country by French mo-
distes, and will be sent to Newport upon her
arrival there. Six of them are of white ma
terials, with bonnets, parasols and gloves to
correspond.
Lord Vernon has one brother, William
Frederick, two years younger than himself
and five sisters, Diana, Mildred, married to
the Rev. Augustus Stanhope, son of Earl
Stanhope; Margaret, Alice and Adela, who is
only fifteen years old. They are all hand
some and talented.
The Vernon cOats-of-arms are numerous,
and the family motto is ''Vernon Semper
Viret''-Vernon always fourishes.
