AN IMPORTANT INDUSTRY.
Jenney Electric-Light Company Established
at the Nordyke & harmon Works.

Under an act for the incorporation of manu-
featuring companies. &c, the "Jenney Electric
light Company of this city, has filed articles
of association with the Secretary of State and
county auditor.
The incorporators. who constitute the di-
rectory and also the sole membership of the
company are Addison II. Nordyke Daniel w
Marmon, Amos K Hollowell, Brainard Rorison
and Charles d. Jenney. This is an industry of
very great Importance, and Indianapolis is to DE
congratulated upon the accession as citizen of
one of the very few electricians of the country.
Mr.. Charles d. Jenney is barely of age. Before
he was seventeen he invented dynamo electric
machine which was the basis os the organization,
in 1881, of the Fort Wayne Jenney Electric light
Company, comprising among its incorporators
prominent and well-known business men of
Fort Wayne. 1t has been during the past year
probably the most prosperous corporation
in Fort Wayne, its plants having been put up in
almost every State in the Union. Mr. Jenney,
however, chafed under the contract which
mortgaged his inventions past and future to that
company for life, and few weeks since, on reach
ing his majority, he rescinded the contract. He
brings to the present company. of which he is q
member, the exclusive right to all of the in
ventions used heretofore by the Fort Wayne
company, which have made the name "Jenney'
famous for electrical appliances, and which Sc
cured for it the three first premiums for the three
principal points of merit at the Louisville expo
sition. The prospect is favorable for like
award at New Orleans, and a contract was
tered into last week for the lighting of large
portion of that city by the Jenney system The
other members of the new company are
we'll known here The Nordyke & Marmon
Company, which includes Mr. Hollowell, is
one of the largest milling machinery houses in
the country, employing from 400 to 800 men,
and sending its products to every civilized
country The interest of such men is of itself
almost in the nature of warrant of success.
Brainard ROrison is known to every one through
his connection with municipal matters, as presi-
dent of the Board of Aldermen, and especially
through his association with the Connecticut
Mutual, whose very large Indiana business he
has had the control of as its general agent more
than fifteen years. He will resign this position
to engage in the active management of the new
company in the interest of which he is now at
Now Orleans The necessary Accommodations
will be given at the works of the Nordyke &
Marmon Company for the prosecution of the
business until the new buildings and factory Of
the company can be erected.

MINNIE MADDERN. AT THE GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
Last night Minnie Maddern presented her
comedy drama, Caprice" at the Grand Opera
house, to fair audience Caprice has been
seen here once before, and is an interesting story
simply told. The materials. while old, have
been deftly joined together, and well-construct-
ed and entertaining comedy has been the result
The role of Mercy, the simple and loving and yet
uncouth country girl, who wins the heart of the
artist, is assumed by Miss Maddern, who in
vested the partwith much tenderness an naivete
Her acting is quite natural, and never strained,
and the little bits of pathos which
abound in the part are adroitly portrayed.
Minnie Maddern is essentially comedienne, by
temperament and method, but her powers are
quite versatile. The song of I'm the Cleaning
was warmly applauded. The company is ca
pable one and the performance creditable. The
leading support, Mr.. Henry Miller, is clever
tation. Mr.. T. j. Herndon, who enacts the part
of the old father, plays the part acceptably, and
is comedian of legitimate methods. Mr.. Cy-
rifle Scott, as Wally, was funny, and Mr.. Brooke
and Mr.. Russell were capable in their respective
roles. The other roles were assumed by Miss
Mary Maddern, Miss Wallack, Miss Wheeler,
Mr.. Tearle, Mr.. Dunbar, Mr. Sinclair and Mr.
Strong. Caprice will be given tonight.

Male BIRDS as Dandfes.

[CharleS Whimple in Magazine of Art.
The best time for seeing perfect feather
ing is in the winter or onward to the
spring; then, after a very short honey
moon, the birds settle down to domestic
drudgery with exemplary ardor, with the
result that at the end of a few weeks their
tail-feathers are rough and irregular, their
pinions worn and ragged from constant
contact with the nest in sitting; and
by the time their new suit comes at
midsummer, they are more than ready
for it. The spring, of course, is the eli
max of a birds life. With scrupulOus

who has not seen a pheasant or cock
grouse at this season of love would be as
tonished at the alteration from his normal
state. The cock pigeon swells that part
of his body most adorned with iridescent
feathers to make the grandest show he
can; and every humble finch and small
bird brushes up his modest finery.
1t is said that not a single bright col

About four years ago Col. Frary, presi.
dent of the Bridgeport Cutlery company,
while on a tour through Europe. visited
many of the cutlery establishments in
Germany Hamburg. and England. The
manufacture of raZOrs being in a print
tive state in this country, he decided that
he could do no better than TO bring over
some of the Workmen to the [ nited
States. The wOrkmen in She cid, Eng
land, WERE as a rule, members of the
trades unions, and Col Erary had con
siderable difficulty in engaging the men
whom he wanted. a few months later he
had the satisfaction of seeing forty of
them with their families sailing for this
country, accompanied by the secretary of
the trade union In Germany and Ham
burg he engaged sixty men, and at once
shipped them and their families to this
country Separate rooms were fitted up
for the newly arrived razormakurs in the
shops at Bridgeport the Germans being
in one part of the works and the English
in another.

of trouble with my men at first. | did
not have nearly as much trouble with the

OF all medicinal preparations that have been put
upon the market IN recent years, the extract OF
malt has proved itself one OF the most valuable
as tonic or remedial beverage. 1t has received
the unqualified recognition and support of ply
sicians, and is freely prescribed by them in many
cases, especially where the nervous or physical
systems have been impaired by disease over
work. The house OF ssDAVID NICHOLSON"
of this city, has recently introduced q pure matt
extract OF high character, made at their request
and under their suggestions by Mr.. AdOlphus
Busch, and which is popularity known mich

and notwithstanding properties. A sample sub

of a chemical analysis by him, and the result of
his investigations are gwen in the appended GER
