Isdianapolib, November 21.—All pulilio
■buildings bero aro covered with emblems of
mourning and Hags lire displayed at half,
mast all over the city. Citizens generally
are doing everything that suggests itself to
make tbe observance of the Vice-President's
fuaeial appropriate and fitting. On ac
count of the strain upon the nerves of
Mis. Hendricks, visitors were excluded
from!tbe bouse last evening, but this
this morning the parlors were again filled
Jsympathising friends. Mrs. Hendricks
da almost prostrated from griif and ex
haustion, and her physicians have given
orders that she shall see nobody unless on
business of the greatest moment It. H.
Parks of Chicago, accompanied by II
Muller of Indianapolis, and P.
OesHue’r. of Cincinnati, took a plaster cast
of Mr Hendricks's face to-day. It was
not altogether satisfactory, however,, nn.l

Will make another cast to-morrow morning
from which he will model a bust The burial

All rooms at the principal hotels are already
engaged by distinguished persons from
abroad. At a meeting of various political
organizations to-day uppropnnto tributes ot
respect were adopted and committees no-
pointed to arrange for participation in the
funeral ceremonies. The Hcndncks Club,
composed of 1,000 young Democrats, ap
pointed a committee to make preliminary
arrangements for starting a subscription
to raise means to erect a monument to Mr.

'General James A. Lukin, of Louis
ville,and fifty or more political organizations
in all parts of the country*. The National
Cattle and Horse Breeders' Association, of
St. Louis, at whose exhibition at Chicago
last week Mr. Hendricks attended, also sent
a message of sympathy. Tbo pal-lbearers

Ikdiakapous, November 27. At Mr.
Hendricks's residence this afternoon mid
evening a cnriuiu crowd continued about
the entrance*, and the parlors were filled
with callers. For the first time nine* Mr.

the PRESIDENT SHOULD WOT ATTEND.
In connection with the announced inten-
tion of the President to attend Mr. Hen
dricks's funeral obsequies Tuesday next, the
Journal will say:
the citizen* of Indlanapclia and the State
of Indiana would be bo.h proud aud pleated to
meet the Prealdent of the Uuited Stater, for whom
a plurality of them ca^t their rotea a year ago, with
■Uch honorand reaped an tbe propriety of the nad
erent of tae funeral of the late Vice-President
would permit, and while the friends and neighbors
of lhomas A. lleudricks fully appreciate the honor
that would be done to bis memory by the presence
or tbo chief iust»iHt:ato here Tuesday next, the
Journal feels constrained to say that it belieres Mr.
Cleveland should not leave the White Houso at this
Juncture to make tbe Journey. The perils incident
to the necessarily rapid movements of a special rail
way train should not be hazarded by the President.
® and • ctiv « services are now iwculiariy
valuable to the peoplo. There are too many risks
attending the trip as it will necessarily have to be
made. Aa was remarked when the honored Vice-
president was so suddenly taken away, it is the
unexpected that happens, and against the unex-
jKJctcd and we truat and believe the improbable, it
•■**» Cleveland s imperative duty to take all proper
precautions. The country has gone through suc
cessfully mauy perils during the last quarter of a
century, but the Hue has on iuo;e than one
occasion been drawn to lta highest tension. There
should not be a possibility of another strain if hu
man prudence can prevent it. Every honorable cit-
r® n . ft® country, regardless of party faith, prays
for the life and health of the President, who atauds
alone now as the embodlmeat of constitutional
powerand authority, aud from the moment Le
rhould leave tbe capital aud reached it again in
safety, the country would bo in patriotic unrest aud
auxiety. The Journal fcela free to make tills
suggestion as a Republican newspaper and
as ouo published at the home of the late Vice-Presi
dent, and as one against which the charge cauuot
be made that it would do or say anything to inter-
fere with the largest possible measure of honor to
the memory of the distinguished dead. Hut Mr.
Cleveland is not his own. Ilo is not his party's.
He cannot follow merely the dictates of bis per
sonal or political friendship. He is the nation's
head, the only life between the government and an
interregnum. In view .of this, we would not have
him take the riaka incidental to the rapid trauiit
that would mark his journey from the national
capital to Indianapolis. Let all the Secretaries
come who can be spared from their official duties,
hut the President should not lesve Washington.
Washington, November 27.—The Even-
Star, iu it* new* column*, says several prom

dent against his oroposed visit to Indianap

following:

aud other personal friends of Mr. lleu

from prominent men at Washington and elsewhere
expressing the opinion that it would be
uuwiae and injudicious for Mr. Cleveland to leave
Washington under the present circumstances, even
to attend the funeral of the Vice-President, and
suggesting that it would be graceful for Mrs. lleu
dricks and her friends to say to him in a dispatch
that while they would be gratified at bis attendance,
bis failure to come in the present condition of af
fairs would not be considered at all disrespectful.

on that occasion. Tbe present juncture in public
affairs Is such as to make the seat of government
the true place for the President for some time. It
is to be hoped that such counsels may yet prevail
aa will persuade him to forrgo his purpose and
place himself as little as possible in the way of ad
verse fortune at this inclement sexton, of special
risk to health and liability to accident in travel by
land or water. The country will need no outward
show to prove tbe depth and sincerity of the Presi
dent's pric fat the loss which is equally felt by it
with himself.

WAfiHmuTojr, November 2*.—The United States
Supreme Court will meet next Monday and adjourn
over until Thursday without transacting any busi
ness. Justices Matthews and Match ford wifi repre
sent the court at the funeral of the late Vice-Presi
dent. A considerable number of Ben atom. Repre
sentatives and public officials, as well aa many dia-
tlnguishcd citizens of Washington, have called on
the President to urge him to reconsider his deter
mination to attend the funeral of tlie Vice-President.
Their argument haa been, not that there would
bo more than ordinary danger Involved in the pro
posed journey, but the emergency is such that ft is -
Lis duty to the country to avoid every possible risk
of accident to bis life and health until Congreas
meets and the Presidential succession is
provided for. Largo numbers of tele
grams to the same effect have been pouring in
uirim the President to-day from leading
men in all sections of the country. Including one
from Hou. Samuel J. Tilden aud a number from
distinguished friends of the late Vice-President at
Iudlanapolis. At a late hour this afternoon the fol
lowing was received from Mr. Hord, his late law
partner:
"iNDUNarous, November 28,1883.—To tbe Presi
dent: Mrs. Jleudricks requests me to thank
for your messagd of sympathy, and
Ml<w Cleveland for her kind
beautiful letter. She requests me to say that
lof--—*

also
-our presence at tbe funeral or her husband would
very* grateful to her feelings, but that she fully
apiircuiatcs the weighty pubUc reasons that exist at
this time against your coming West, and begs that
you will be governed entirely by your sense of
duty. [Signed] Oscaa H. Hood."
It is understood that the President has not yet
concluded to abandon the trip, although be said t»»
caller to-day that the matter wav being presented
> him in snch a way aud from such sources e«
might induce him, as a question of duty, to forego
a Journey.
Wahhinotox, November 28.—While it I* not posi
tively settled, it is pretty well understood that Sec
retaries Dayanl, Whitney and Endicott and Post
master-General Vilas will attend the funeral of Vice-
President Hendricks. Tbe Attorney-General ia ex-

Preparations at Washington.
Washington, November 27.—The regu
lar meeting of the cabinet was held tonluy.
All tbe member* were present. Tbo Pre*-
ident'* message bo far as completed, was
read and nnanimon9ly approved. It is said
to be an unusnally strong paper, contain
ing many new and valuable HUggestionn.
Che question of attending the funeral of
Mr. llendricks wo* considered, and two
or three member* of the cabinet said it
would be almost impossible to leave thu
city ju3t it this time without neglecting
matters which it is important should bo set
tled before the meeting of Con gross. The
President expressed u determination to at
tend the funeral. His message was almost
ready and could be completed on his return.
The Postmaster-General and Secretaries
of War and the Navy said their report* were
all in shape, and they thought they would
be able to accompany the President Tbe
Secretary of State also thought he coaid ar
range to go with tho party. The other
members thought tbe affairs of their de-
i>artments would prevent their leaving the
city. Finally it was decided to leave th*
matter entirely to the discretion of each
member, with on understanding that all
who could would go. The party wiUproba-
bly leave here Monday morning. The de
tails of tho trip have been placed in the
hand* of Colonel Lamont, ana are not yet
complete.
The chairman of tbe Senate committee
has added Senator Heck to the committee to
attend Mr. Hendricks’s funeral Mr. Can
ady, sergeant at-arms of the Senate, and
Mr. Leedom, of the House, have made ar
rangements for the committee to go to In
dianapolis via the Pennsylvania railway,
leaving Washington at 9:30 ft. ro. f Monday
:ind arriving in Indianapolis at 8 a. m.,
Tuesday. Returning, they leave Indianap
olis at ti p. in., Tuesday, and arrive at
Washington at 6 p. m., Wednesday. The

Tbo mode of manufacturing whisky in I
„ w .„ the days when it was bent down the Missis-
anil with the metropolitan | sippi river on flat bodia and sold at 15 to 20
cent* per gallon differed jw widely as possi-
blo from that of tbo present, says tho Louis- | jt i-)
ville Commercial. 1 lie location of springs v_y I J I >
in that day decided that of tlie distillery, for |
the simple reason that they had no machine
ry or pumps, nnd the water flowed through ,
troughs dug out of oak saplings into the ? r - , .
flake atand or condenser. Of nreessity the I eleganee and cl
spring wns sufBcientlv derated to flow in
tue top of tbe fluke stuud. Tbe whisky of
that day con truly bo add to bare been hand
made, iw everything wn* done by manual
labor. The grain was ground in the neiofi-
borbood horse mill and carried on hcrae
back to the distillery. The mashing was
done in smdl tubs, iih now, except that tbo
spent beer or slop was carried in bnckets
from the still to the tabs. Tho meal wet
thon pat in nnd stirred with a stick nntil
thoroughly cooked into mush, and lot stand
about twenty-four hours to cool. Then
cold water was pat in and thoroughly stirred.
Yeast was then taken from tubs in a state of
fermentation nnd put into the new tabs,
and allowed to stand forty-eight or seventy-
two hours, as the weather might bo cold or
warm—tho colder, the longer the time of
fermentation.
After the fermentation was complete tbo
mash became beer, which was dipped in
bnckets nnd run through throngbs into jug-
shaped copper stills, which were placed on
a rock ana the fmnoccs so bailt that tho
fire, mndo of wood.wontcntirely around tho
still some distance above tho bottom, the
smoke coming oat into tho distillery. Hut
tho .listillor, to lnnko doubly sure that bis
sHU might not burn by tho settling of the
inenl, which wonld prevent tho beer com
ing in contact with tho heated still, would
leave oil what was called the cap and stir
with a pole until the beer was about to
boil, when lio would replace the cap nnd
taste it around with rye meal. This boil-
ng process is called distilling.
Since alcohol lic-comcs a vapor at n lower
temperature tlinn water boils, tlio vapor
that arises is utmost entirely alcohol, which
I’ocs through copper pipes, or what is called
ho worm, simply because it is coiled around
the inside of a large tub or flake stand,
which is constantly supplied with cold wa
ter introduced in the bottom of tho tloko
stand, tlio heated water overflowing at the
top. This cold water condenses the vapor
in the worm, which come ont what was
culled singlings. This was redistilled
in the samo way to get n higher proof vOds-
ky. In th&t day there was no snch
thing as a thermometer; the distiller’s arm
was the substitute in testing the heat of his
tubs, and the proof vial was used instead
before 0 f hydrometer, and the proof of whisky

was decided by the bead. The distiller in
running his whisky from tho still would
shnt it off when tho bed oi tho worm dis
appeared, and wonld run whnt was colled
backings ss long as they would bum. Ibe
custom was to throw them on the cap and
sot fire to them. This was redoubled with
the singling.
Under tbe pld regime the capacity of dis
tilling was about twenty gallons. It was
mre to find one that matte a barrel per day,
andtwo gallons per bnshel was considered
a large yield, ana often the cellar of n gen
tleman's house was his warehouse. Ready
customers were on hand with their jag.,
waiting tho run. The taste ot that day bad
not been cultivated to a just appreciation
of 15-year-old Hourbon, but thought a lit
tle catnip nnd tansy gave it a fine flavor.
The distillery usually consisted of A log

Whoever has closely observed the tenden
cy of public opinion must have noted its
rapid drift toward tbe application of the
high lionise system in municipalities. The
pocket nerve ot tho tax-payers has been
toadied, and has brought them to a rtulizn-
tiontbattho liqnrtrafficenn jnatlybe inode
to bear more of the costa of government than
it now docs, without launching any temper
ance thunderbolts. Tho two ends high li-
censo accomplishes are to reduce general
taxation liy putting heavier hardens upon
tbo liquor luxury, and to lessen tho num
ber ot luw grogg. rics thnt curse all commu
nities of uuy considerable size. In this lat
ter scoomplishmcnt it so happens that the
bettor class ot liqjior dealers see good re
sults for themselves, and so tliey ure very
generally falling In with the idee of high lf-
nense. It is srgned thnt the system cats
short the right of the poor man to make a
living by soiling liquor. Admitting this to
be true—though it cannot be shown that it
demands any greater capital to be invested
in the bnsineM—it may be replied that if
that was a primo object in advocating th •
system it wonld be defensible, on the
ground that nothing better ran be dono for
the poor man than to make it extremely dif
ficult (or him to engage in the bo.ine*a ut
all. In ninety cases nut of a hundred the
pKiraeawho willadvance the objection re
ferred to will be found to l>e keeping place*
of such low degree that they are immediate
agencies for their degradation and final ruin,
and are looked upon by communities gen
erally ns nnisanect, of tho worst order,
high licenso experiments in Colusa m
nml Los Angeles counties will l<o watch
with great interest by both the friends and
the opponents of the system. A year ago
we presented for severed weeks tho current
arguments of the tteeuse aide of the ques
tion, with many citations of trial of the sys
tem in various porta of the Union. Since
then observation of tbe experiments haa
strengthened tbe affirmative of the inane.

Tlie Situation In Spain.
Hanaro, November 27.—A state of tieg )
bss been proclaimed in tbe provinces of
Barcelona and Curthsgena and tho Canary
Islands. Dispatches from all points, how
ever, report a tranquil state of off aim.
The minister of war and minister of th
interior have ordered provincial oSeiala to
use the almost tact and discretion as long
as order prevails, to take iuimediato ener
getic action the moment the slightest indi
cation of disorder appears, and to proclaim
a state of siege when necessary. The rail
U r i of the journal LtjjDucnsaion have b i t
amatod for publishing t: a-h el-lmc; “Al
fonso is dead! Long Live the Re;

The fate of Dion, tbe billiard player, fur-
ni.hcK another cxamploof the danger which
attends sudden and radical changes of habit
lata in life. Men cannot violata tbe law* of
health with impnnity for many yean and
then expect to “catch np" by merely oi
staining from their accustomed stimulant
Under snch circumstances temperance I
lik- Iv to be death, whereas if the departure
had been token earlier it might have been
less dsngerons. Dion now goes to an
insane asylum because the revolution
that he has made in Lis habits has an-
nettled bis mind. Other men who might
be named who have died during the post
C ar with great suddenness were brought
»- by on attempt to forego the drinking
habit when such » change became in the
highest degree perilous, Such cases do not,
as some msy foci tionsly aver, argue the un
wisdom of men attempting to ret ieve them
selves from tbo drinking habit, but they .b
illustrate unmistakably tbe folly of the idea
that after a lifetime of excess the only thing
that is needed is to stop. Moderation early
in life entails no such consequences. Th
msn who lives to drink dnnng the best
part of his life will drink to live atiis Utter
end.
