Quarter Centennial Services. Centenany church, the leading Meth odist church of Terre llaute, held its juarter centennial celebration last Saturday and Sunday. The anniversary sermon was delivered by Rev. J. W. Greene, of this city. The Terre Haute Express after a synopsis of the sermon remarks: "It was a master effort—the quarter-ceutennial sermon as delivered by the Rey. J. AY. Greene, D. D. He is an elderly gentleman, with white hnir and beard and of rather delicate figure, bnt his oratory has the force of that of a man in his prime. ])r. Greene is not a demonstrative speaker, bnt a closereasoning and logical one. The language in the second verse of the sixty-third psalm, "To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in thy sanctuary," served as his text. At the conclusion of his sermon proper, Dr. Greene tersely reviewed the history of Centenary church, noting its growth in numbers, social position and spiritual influence—a success which he attributed to its having kept the ordinances and sacraments of God's sanctuary, living not in the dead past or unknown future, but in the breathing, pulsatory present.

Dr. Greene's discourse was effective to the end and he was highly complimented by the general verdict. He is well known in Terre Haute, having been conspicuously identified with Methodism hero for many years. He has served as pastor of both Centenary and Asbury churches, and as presiding elder of this district. His home at present is in Crawfordsville.''

Bill Jackson, of Frankfoat. He said his name was Bill Jackson and that he came from Frankfort. He looked like it. He was the dirtiest,vilest most ragged old vampire-that ever blew into Crawfordsville on an ill wind which brought nobody good. He arrived from Marshall, III., in a parlor freightcar and stopped off here to change cars for Frankfort. While waiting for his special train, the "hog train," he went to Sullivan's saloon and played pool. At the conclusion of the twentieth game ho stated that he had no money to pay and then dropped down in a fit when one of the Messrs. Sullivan started after his bacon. Mr. Sullivan therefore contented himself with pouring a couple of buckets of water on him and kicking him out of tho "little side door." Jaokson then tried to steal a sack of (lour to trade for whisky, but failing ho forged an order on Mr. Wallace, of the Junction House, for $150, signing to it the name of Conductor Coughliu, of tho Yandaiia. Ha was arrested and jailed after failing to get it cashed, but this morning tho 'prisoners at the jail making loud complaints against the man tho police took him to the suburbs and giving him a farewell kick sent him kiting in the direction ot Frankfort.

Balaam and BOM Were Wise. Advertising is an ancient nnd honor able institution, and was practiced long er ago than a great many people im agine. Get your Bible, turn to Num bers xxiv, 14, and you will see that Balaam believed in advertising, and said to Balak: "Behold, I go unto my people come, therefore, and I will advertise. Turn again to Ruth iv, 4, and yon will find that Boaz, in connection with a real estate transaction in which he was in terested, expressed himself as a judicious advertiser.

A Female I'nink.

W7hen a woman puts three mackerel to soak over night in a dishpan whose sides are eight inches high, and leaves the pan on a stairway, she has accotn plished her mission and should go hence. This was what a Division street woman did Friday Light—filled the pan at the pump and then left it standing on the steps of the stoop, while she went into the next house to see how many buttons would be required to go down the front of a redingote and a mighty important affair that was, to be sure. And there was her husband tearing through the house in search of a handkerchief, and not finding it, of course. And then he rushed out into the yard wondering where on earth that woman could be and started down the steps without seeing the pan, or even dreaming that any one could be so idiotic as to leave it there.

Of course he stepped on it or at least that is the supposition, as the neighbors who were brought out by the crash that followed saw a horrified man and three very demoralized mackerel shooting across tho garden and smashing down the shrubbery. Aud he was a nice sight, was that unhappy man, when they got him on hia feet. There wasn't a dry thread on him and his hair was full of bits of mackerel and oue of his shoulders was out of joint and his coat was split the whole length of the back and he appeared to be out of his head. He was carried into the house by some of the men, and laid on a bed, I while others went after a doctor and sixteen women assembled in the front room, and talked in whispers about the I inscrutable ways of Providence and what a warning this was to people who never looked where thoy were going.
