ANOTHER METHODIST CHURCH
To He Unlit on the West Side—l.ot Donated by Mn. Joiwph MtlligHii,
Dr. .1. W. Greene and Dr. H. A. Tucker were in conference with Mrs. Joseph Milligan and her son, Harry Milligan, this morning and the result was that Mrs. Milligan p»ve to the trustees of the Methodist church of this city a deed for a lot on the corner of Sloan and Pearl streets for the purpose of building a church thereon. This is a consummation of a plan the Methodists have had in view for over a year. The late Sir. Milligan in his life time had often expressed a desire to do something of this kind and Mrs. Milligan feels that she is only carrying out his wishes. The corner of Sloan and Pearl streets is in the Milligan addition one block sonth of Wabash avenue and one block east of the Milligan homestead. The lot is 160 feet deep, has a frontage of 40 feet and is valued at 8350. Mrs. Milligan also offers to sell the nest lot to the church for S'-OO if they want it. The church will not be erected before fall but according to a provision in the deed must be built inside of two years. It will be a frame structure costing between 82,000 and $3,000 and will be in no sense amission church. The large population in the west part of town so far removed from all our churches will easily support it and it will doubtless flourish as the green bay tree. Besides the present Methodist church is becoming somewhat crowded and the town can as well support two Methodist churches as two Presbyterian ones.

YOU CAN'T AFFORD
FXTDRE ON CHRISTIAN SOCIOLOGY.
r. D. Herron, of Iowa, to £p«ak To-Morrow Might and Wednetday Sight.
Dr. George D. Herron, of Iowa College, at Orinnell, Iowa, will lecture at the college chapel to-morrow even ing at seven o'clock on the subject, 'Christian Sociolagy," and again on Wednesday evening at the First church. There will be no prayer meetings on Wednesday eveniug in order that everybody may hear Dr. Herron. The lecturer is Principal of Instruction and Organization of the American Institute of Christian Sociology. A paragraph from the report of the Secretary, who is Prof. .John E. Commons, of Indiana. University, gives an idea of the scope of the Institute. It says: "It is evident on all sides that the Christian world is ripe for a new birth of Christianity. What shall be the new doctrines, if any, is unknown. Hut those who believe in Christ and His great love to man cannot remain quiet as they look upon the social unrest and the social problems of the time. A feeling urges them to believe that religion must be more immediately applied to the practical affairs of human life. They see momentous changes impending in politics, in business, in industry. They see a demand for new rights from the laboring classes. They see ominous questions of crime, intemperance, pauperism, suddenly rising. Shall all these changes take place in blind response to "natural law"—that is, materialism and maminonism? Or can there be a human and divine guidance? Can truly Christian civilization be evolved? Theso feelings and questions have taken shape in the organization of the American Institute of Christian Sociology." Prof. Richard T. Ely, of Wisconsin University, is president, and among the council we see such well known names as Dr. Geo. S. Burroughs, President Seth
Low, Rev. Josiali Strong, Dr. J. II. Harrows, Dr. Lyman Abbott and Bishop Vincent. The members of the Crawfordsville Charity Organization will doubtless be interested in what Dr. Herron has to say.

OONE COUNTY LAUGHING STOCK.
Lebanon the Scene of an Kxcltlng Attempt At Lynch Law, Which Falls Because the Mob Lacked Nerve.
Special to The Jo jrnal. LEBANON, IND., Feb., 5.—All Lebanon is in a state of frenzied excitement and her street* are filled with an angry mob of several hundred citizens of wealth and social standing, all thirsty for the blood of Frank Hall, a burly negro.
Hall, on Saturday night, between 0 and 10 o'clock, went to the house of Mrs. Mary Akers, four miles east of Lebanon, and represented himself as a cab driver from Lebanon, and that he had brought some of her friends from the city. Mrs. Akers admitted him. when she was confronted by an ugly looking pistol in the hands of Hall, who forced her to yield to his lecherous desires. The victim of the outrage is a widow, having .several children. As soon as possible Sirs. Akers clothed herself and with her children went to her nearest neighbor and told the story. Assistance was summoned and tracks leading from her doorstep in the snow were followed until they led directly to Hall's house, one mile farther east from the Akers home. He was arrested, taken to Lebanon and lodged in jail.
News of the brutal offense became circulated early yesterday morning and about 9 o'clock Sheriff Troutman received Information that a movement was on foot to drag Hall from his cell in the jail and hang him without mercy. He hurried his prisoner overland to the Indianapolis'jail but not anticipating mob violence to-day brought him back to Lebanon this morning at S o'clock for a preliminary hearing, intending to return him to Indianapolis to-night.
Arrived in Lebanon, Hall was hurried to the jail, but before he could be taken to the court house a mob of 200 prominent citizens came riding ip from the neighborhood of the crime accompanied by the relatives of Sirs. Akers, the victim. They went to the jail and demanded the prisioner, but the Sheriff refused to give kim up. The mob then gathered about the jail and waited for the appearance of the wretch. Early in the afterooon the sheriff and a large posse of deputies issued from the jail with Hall in their midst and started for the court house.
A DRAMATIC 8CENS.
The mob immediately closed in and the deputies were pushed back and female relative of Mrs. Akers hurried before the terrified negro. "He's the man! He's the man!" she sobbed, and a great angry cry for blood at once arose and a rope was placed in the woman's hand and she threw the noose over the negro's head. Tho mob then started with him but a strong deputy sheriff broke through the crowd and with one slash cut the rope. He was at once joined by his fellow officers, some of whom drew revolvers. It was plain to be seen that the officers were sympathy with the mob and were making a show of duty. However, the mob fell back like chickens and Hall was taken to the court room. He waived trial and at once pleaded guilty. The court promptly sentenced him to 21 years in the penitentiary.
While this was going on in the court house the mob gathered in front and began yeUing like so many demons Th% sheriff looked out of the upstairs window and gave them the laugh. stated that he had telegraphed to In dianapolis for the militia and that if they didn't clear out in short order he would run them in for disorderly con duct.
The news about the militia had a very soothing effect on the mob and the howling ceased. At 3 30 o'clock the mob is quiet and not much trouble is anticipated. The mob made monkey of itself as it could easily have taken Hall from the officers on their way to the court house It really lacked the smail amount of nerve necessary for the job. The prisoner is now in the judge's library smoking a cigar and taking life easy.
The Athenian.
The Athenian met last Saturday afternoon with Mrs. I). H. Jackson There was a full attendsnce and Mrs T. H. Ristine read .the first paper on the "Modern Novel," which proved to be a very interesting one, Miss Mary Campbell had the sec ond paper, it being- "The Heroine of the American Novel." THe subject was treated in an original and entertaining manner. The meeting was both pleasant and profitable.
For City Clerk.
THE JOURNAL to-day announces G. S McCluer as a candidate for the office of City Clerk, before the Republican con vention. Mr. McClncr is one" of the most popular young Republicans in the city and is certainly competent and in every way qualified to fill the office he seeks. He has many friends who will give him ardent support if nomi nated.

Damages for Coleman,
The jury in the Coleman case aft.°r listening to thrilling arguments all Saturday morning retired and after spending the afternoon in sage discussion, returned a verdict for the plaintiff, assessing his damages at S350. A special finding of facts would liftve been highly entertaining as it is hard to see how the jury could figure, a loss of S3.i0. It was really a compromise verdict, the vote standing for quite a while seven to five in favor of the plaintiff. Part of the jury believed Cordelia guilty of one thing and part of another. Some believed her guilty of nothing and some of nearly everything. It was horribly mixed up in the jury room but the two cases most generally believed were those relating to the cutting up of the buggy and the murder of the chickens. Quite a number believed her guilty of barn burning, too.
Cordelia's attorneys will ask for a new trial. Cordelia is worth the judgment as she has a forty acre farm and other property. £_
Confidential Talk to Voung Men. Mr. S. M. Sayford talked to an audience of over -100 men at the Y. M. C. A. yesterday afternoon. Mr. Sayford's address was a magnificent one and every man in this city would have been a better man for the hearing of it. He touched briefly and frankly upon some of the things that make less manly the men of to-day, and did so in such a fashion that he had the hearts of his audience from the beginning. A large number of the Christian men in the meeting pledged themselves to give up the things which have hindered their Christian living, and there were also a number who expressed their desire to accept and to serve the Christ.
Joined the Church.
Yesterday morning at the conclusion of the services at the M.cE. church the usual invitation was extended to all who wished to avail themselves of the opportunity to unite with the church. Among those going forward was Gen M. D. Manson. Gen. Manson. while lie has always been an exemplary citizen and a moral man. a friend to the Christian religion, has never been a church member or a regular church goer. He had the matter of uniting with the church under consideration for several years during which time he was a great Bible student. J. B. Jennison and Mr. and Mrs. Murphy and son and daughter also united with the church.
