EASTER SUNDAY.
It Is Observed By All the Ohurohesln a Fitting Manner. Easter Sunday came verv early this year and the lloral decorations werehardly up to wliat have been seen in times past, Imt for all that the several churches were lmnds'omly decorated and enough spring bonnets blossomed but to cause a great stretching of feminine necks in the various congregations. It did not rain and the Raster sun was gladly wel coined for even in the Hoosier Athens the old superstition, which provides for seven rainy to follow a rainy Easter, is firmly grounded.
The Knight's Templar celebrated the day by attending St. John's Episcopal church in the afternoon and listening to an able discourse from Sir Knight Glover, the rector of the church. The room was tastily decorated and all things moved off in accordance with the day.
The Vaptisuia! ceremony was observed at the Christian church last evening and the audience room was beautifully decorated. Rev. S. \Y. Brown preached to a congregation of over 500.
Center Prey'.yterian church was hand somely decorated with flowers yesterday morning and Dr. 15. J. Cunningham preached a most eloquent Easter sermon.
The Baptist church was filled to overflowing yesterday both morning and evening. Rev. (5. P. Fuson delivered an appropriate Easter address in the morn ing.
The Methodist church was decorated with flowers and a large congregation listened to a powerful Easter sermon by Rev. H. M. Middleton. Afterwards the communion was administered to a large number by Rev.'s 11. M. Middleton. \V. Switzer, G. W. Stafford and J. L. Kellev.of Dubuque. Ia. An old fashioned love feast was held at 0:130 in the evening and at the regular church hour the children entertained the congregation with appropriate verses. A collection was taken for the benefit of the mission fund of the Sunday school.
Elder Miller preached on theResurection yesterday morning at the Second Baptist church anil in the evening gave his congregation a sound temperance lecture. The services in the afternoon by the Sunday school children were very entertaining and the collection amounted to S2.50. The total collection for the day was Si 8,
The Sunday school of the First Pres byterian church observed Easter yesterday by literary exercises participated in by the scholars and teachers. Prof. Winslow preached an Easter sermon at the church service and received five applicants for memliership, three.-by profession and two by letter.
THE SENTENCE 01 THE COURT.
It is Pronounced Upon Charles Coombs This Morning—A New Trial Denied. Charley Coombs was brought into court this morning by Deputy Davis and his attorneys tiled a formal motion for a new trial averring that the verdict was not in accordance with the evidence placed before the jury. Judge Snvder at once overruled the motion and Coombs was told to stand up and receive his sentence. He took his face from his hands and arose looking greatly troubled. When asked if he had anything to say why sentence should not lje pronounced upon him he merely Bliook his head and uttered some inarticulate words. Judge Snyder then sentenced him to twenty-one years im prisonment at hard lalor and he was again taken back to his cell at the jail. He stated that he did not expect a new trial but that he was still of the opinion that the punishment was too severe. It hiio not yet leen decided when he will be taken north, Imt probably will be some time this week. He is not at all particular when as his time tiognn at 9 o'clock this morning.
A Bold Rescuer.
Last Saturday as H. H. Ristine and two other gentlemen were crossing the Dry Branch bridge on the Terro Haute road they were attracted by the screams of a frantic woman who rushed down the sleep banks into the turgid waters crying out in tones of anguish that her child had fallen in the water. She rushed headlong into the stream and liegan to fish about in the water with both hands. In the hoj)e of saving human life Mr. Ristine leaped from the clamored over the barled wire fence (ujjon which he left a square yard from the seat of his pantaloons) and rushed after the lady into the foaming stream. Ho slipped on a mossy rock and sat down in the water which reached hiB nock and while in this position he was attracted by a sbrill childish laugh of glee and looking up leheld the object of his search seated calmly upon a log upon the bank. Its mother snw it BIBO and running from the water treated it to a spanking for throwing stone into the water and at tho same time yelling for help. Tho child had its joke and Mr. Ristine has a bad cold.
For Defending Coombs.
This morning Judge Snyder allowed M. \V. Bruner and Judge Seller 8400 for defending Charley Coombs. Tho amount will lie divided equally letwoen them,
A DEED 0F DARING.
Old Wash Voris and His Wife Oaptured In Regular Jesse James Style. The scalding of Constable lfanna some time ago by O. Washington Voris and wife of Wayne township is still fresh in the public mind. Uutil this morning it looked as though none of our constables had nerve enough to make the oviction which Hanna attempted or to arrest the venerable couple for assault and battery on the arm of tho law whom they mistreated. But early to-day constables
Hanna and Byas having deputized young Kyle whose mother owns the place occupied by the Voris outfit, started for ayne township. On the way out the campaign was mapped out and when the house wee approached, Hanna hid behind a big oak tree and Byas behind the hen house. Young Kyle called tho old man out to tho gate to talk and Byas running from the hen house got between him ami the door. Tho old man heard him and turned around to look a big bull-dog revolver in the face. He threw up both hands when ordered and was promptly hand cuffed, Mr. Hanna peeped out from the oak tree and called out "have you them"' but did not come out. Brave constable Byas then proceeded up to the house and compelled the old lady at the point of the revolver to throw out the hot water with which she advanced to meet him. She was then secured and placiug the couple in the buggy they were driven to this city, their little bob tailed black dog yelping after them all the way. The party was unloaded at Clinmasero's court and arraigned on the charge of assault and batter.y Hanna who had lieen left behind to throw the household goods out was not there to appear against thoin so the case was set for tomorrow. "I won't give no bail, I'll go to jail first," cried the old man and to jail they went, bob-tailed dog and all. It was a sorrowful and bedraggled procession, which, headed by Byas, passed down Washington street and into the jail. Voris could easily have given bail and deserves a jail sentence for allowing his wife to be taken to the lockup. She is a poor, ignorant old lady and did not realize her offense when she scalded Hanna.
Republican Primaries.
The City Republican Committee met Saturday afternoon and decided that the nominations for candidates for Councilmen should be on the primary plan and fixed Wednesday evening, April 15, from to 9 o'clock as the time. The First ard will meet at the Township Trustees office, the Second Ward at the Clerk's office in tho Court House, and the Third Ward at Reuben Smith's shop on east Main street. While there is but one Councilman from each ward to place in nomination, yet it is just as important as if a full ticket were to be placed in the field. Every Republican therefore, should make it a point to lie present. The Democrats intend to make a strong effort to capture the city government. The interest of every citizen is that such a calamity should not liefall us. The Democratic State government is as much as the people can endure at one time.
Contemptible Ohicken Thieves. For some time past chicken thieves have been committing depredations in the east end. They confine their outrages chiefly to the property of lone women and widows. The latter part of last week they despoiled the hen roosts of Mrs. Enoch Miller and Mrs. Thornton Ritter, both of whom are poor and unable to stand the loss. Others have also suffered and Inst night Frank Birchfield drove three burly rascals out of his hen roost with a shot gun. He could have shot one of them dead and would have done so except that tho law would have held him liable.
Disgraceful Profanity.
This afternoon at the Monon station one of the choicest exhibitions of low bred profanity took place that was ever witnessed in a public place in this city. Eli Jones, who had been deputized by some careless constable, walked up and down the platform just at train time in search of some witness for whom he had a subjioena. He aired his authority by the loudest and most blasphemous oaths in the whole catalogue of profanity and shocked even the most hardened. The scene was a disgrace to tho city and ho should lie punished.:
Surprise Party,
Last Saturday evening when J. W. Henry returned from Indiamqiolis he found his home in posession of about 40 friends who tendered him a surprise party in view of his contemplated removal to tho capital. A sumptuous repast had been prepared and all were satisfied BS to tho inner man. After the supper the remaindor of the evening was pleasantly passed with music and other refreshments.

SENSATION IN TEE PRAYING BAND.
The Meeting Broken up by Frank Bu'wober Whose Wife Starts To Jump 1.i Greek.
When the Salvation Army gavo tip tho ghost at this place tho few devoted who still remained faithful, resolved themselves into what they tormed a "Praying Band," in which move they were reinforced by others who hold connection with the several Protestant churches. The "Praying Band" has proved to be a healthy organization nnd has some thirty membors. The meetings are hold around at various houses and are always attended with great interest and some times perhaps a little amusement.
Among tho most zealous members of tho band hr.ve beou Frank Butcher and wife who reside on extreme north Grant avenue. It scorns from the dovolop ment of the facts in the case that all has not been lovely in the Butclior family for the past week or so. James, the son and heir, became of age and his father insisted upon turning him out for a birthday present, in order that he might see. how it goes to buffet with the cold, bad world. James wasn't at all in with tho plan and neither was his mother who stood by him against tho lord and master of tho flock who persisted in beliov ing that Jim was a lazy young lout, who would be made all the bettor if made to shift for himself. Which party was right limy lie a matter of opinion among those best acquainted with them, but at any rate tho "Praying Band" met at the Butcher mansion yesterday afternoon and a most exhilarating meeting took place. At three o'clock Mr. Thomas Sering, the leader called the faithful, to ordor and a fow rousing old songs were indulged in which were calculated to put to flight the devil and all his angels besides causing a most heavenly and lovable spirit to pervade the wholo place. Brother Jim Brown led in prayer and was followed by Jim Delaslimit who likewise made a most fervent appeal. An experience meeting then began and had not proceeded far when Mr. Frank Butcher arose, and from the way in which he began it was evident that he had something to say and meant to be heard. At least that is what the neighbors in the next block think. Even Mr. Butcher's closest friends think that his voice was pitched a little high for the occasion. His speech was a long one and in the nature of a fiery invective leveled at the head of his devoted wife. He accused her of being in league with the devil and road the most glaring portions of scripture for her benefit. He hnd evidently lieen preparing for tho occasion as ho lacked neither for language or abuse and backed up everything he said with scriptural quotations which fairly reeked with brimstone and sulphur. He Bpoke for a long time and the meeting adjourned in a most sudden and unusual manner. Promptly at the close Mrs. Butcher, who had been weeping and taking on generally, suddenly jumped up and started for the surging waters of Sugar Creak to end hor life. Brothers Tom Taylor and George Sering started after her but she was too fleet, and reached the bank before them. The bank at this point is a steep, fortyfoot incline aad Mrs. Butcher started down it at breakneck speed. About ha!' way down she tripped and fell to the bottom, where she lay on the rocks bruised and stunned. Messrs. Taylor and Sering picked her up and carried her to the house, where she was placed in the care of watchers. She declared her intention of securing a divorce but has probably given up the intention of suicide. The "Praying Band" is greatly scandalized and some of them are talking of arresting Butcher for disturbing the meeting.
The Latest Fad.
The very latest is brass insoles to prevent, rheumatism. Quite a number, 'adies especially, are providing themselves with an insole made from a thin sheet of brass and they do say it not only prevents but cures the worst cases of rheumatism. Whether it is because of an electric current generated or because it keeps the feet perfectly dry is not known, but it is a cure just the same and bound to lien popular fiid. Some enterprising hardware or shoe man could do well by buying a supply of brass sheets and advertising them.
