In many respects the most entertaining theat-
rical performances given in the city for long
time were those Of Mr.. Charles H. Hoyt's musical
aosurdity "A Tin Soldier" at the Grand Opera

matinee the attendance filled the theater and
last night the audience was larger than could DO

THANKSGIVING OBSERVANCES,
Special Services at the Blind Asylum and
Reform School at Plainfeld.

AS might have been expected, the death of
Vice president Hendricks interfered perceptibly
with the general observance of Thanksgiving
day, and it was unusually quiet and uneventful.
Many social events that had been announced for
the day and evening were indefinitely postponed.
Most of the churches held services either sepa-
rately or in conjunction with others of their
respective denominations. The toothsome tur-
key formed the piece de resistance at the tables
of those able to afford a spread, and the Gus
tomary family reunions about the paternal board
were held in all ranks and by all classes
The places of amusement, including thea
ters museums and Kinks, gave extra
performances, which were largely attended,
and there were many balls and social hops, most
OF them, however, of public character, in the
evening Altogether it may be said that, aside
from the general feeling of depression, incident
to the death Of the citys most illustrous citizen,
Thanksgiving came and went to the people of
indianapolis about as it has in former years.
AT several of the public institutions there were
special observances. At the State Institute for
the Blind the regular SCHOOL work was sus
pended for the day, and at o'clock in the morn
ing the teachers and pupils assembled in the
chapel, where after devotional exercises and the

and Governor Gray, designating and setting

New England colonies, and when and how it be-
came national holiday. The superintendent
also read from the Journal the proclamation of
the President relative to the sudden death of
Vice-president Hendricks, and took occasion to
speak of the honored dead in appropriate terms.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, a bountiful
THANKSGIVING dinner was spread which the
pupils fully enjoyed

his lfe and the simplicity of his character. He
drew encouraging lessons for them from the life
of Mr.. Hendricks. General Manson and others
followed with remarks. At noon grand spread
was enjoyed by all, aud in the afternoon the
new barn was formally occupied.

Senator HawIey on the Presidents
Campaign Conduct.

Chairman Jones, Of the Republican Ma
tional Committee, may consider himself
suppressed. When he charged that neither
President Arthur nor any member Of his
Cabinet had shown any interest in Mr..
Blaine's candidacy, or had manifested any
sympathy with 1t, Secretary Chandler
arose and said few words, which unani-
mously produced something of distribu-
tion of Chairman Jones anatomy. Now
Senator Hawley has a few words to say
about Mr.. Jones charge.
The Senator says that at Republican
headquarters early in August, in con-
versation which he had with members of
the National Committee, something was
said about Mr.. Arthur's position and inten-
tions. Senator Hawley undertook to see
The President about it. The President
thought everybody ought to know that he
was in full sympathy with the Republican
cause but he did not see exactly how he
should express himself. If he should
manufacture situation from which to ex-
plain that he was with the Republican
party as before people would say, Well
what of It? Who said anything to the
contrary ~
After repeating the conversation with
| the President to Chairman Jones, Senator
Hawley says there was discussion about
what the President had said. 1t was ac-
knowledged that there was force in his re-
marks, and that the matter might as wei
| then rest where it was. In his talk with
Senator Hawley the President also said:

To THE PUBLIC,- Greeting: As the cou-

making the following statements;
Our Theory Proved.
FIRsT--We have held from the begin
ming that most of the common ailments
are caused primarily by kidney aud liver
disorders, not primarily by bad blood ;
that bad blood is caused by temporary or
chronic arrangement of tho kidneys and
liver, aud that by restoring these blood
purifying organs to health we could cure
most of the common ailments. Other
practitioners, however, have held that ex-
treme kidney and liver disorders were
incurable. We have proved TO the on
trary in thousands of cases.
Safeguards Against EpIdemics.
SEcoND-The kidneys and liver are the
sewers Of tho system, and unless they are
kept in perfect working order no amount
of public sanitation can prevent epidemics
raging among the people. The prudent
man, in The Tinter aud spring, will fortify
tho system against any such possibility.
Dr. Koch, the celebrated German scientist
and physician, says, for instance, that ohol-
era will have but little effect among those
who keep the digestive organs and the kid
neys and liver in healthful operation. War
ner's SAFE Remedies are the best scientific
curatives and prevertives, and should be
used nOiC as a safeguard against any future
scourge.
