TWO CHURCHES NOT ENOUGH
To Hold Mr. Oidroiu'* Admirers l.a»t Krenlng—Big Afternoon Meeting— alrheme to Increase the Sun-
UH.V Seliool 'Attendance.
On Saturday night Rev. Ostroin met the teachers and officers of the Sunday schools of the city in conference at the Haptist church. It was shown that out. of 3,2(10 children between six and twen-ty-one in the city and suburbs only 1,200 were ill the Sunday schools. To reach this large number of children not attending Sunday schools a committee was appointed to district the city and appoint canvassers who are at work to day. They will aim to get a list of all these children, their addresses and the church preference of their parents.
Ilev. Ostroin then began a personal address to the teachers showing the great need of self-denying consecration for this work. lie thought it impossible for one whose spare time was taken up with dancing and card plav-. ing to lie either a consistent or capable Hible instructor. lie said that what be wanted was a trained Hible scholar for Hible teaching—that the lesson Could not be taught without study. Some young lady teachers who had spent their afternoon at a whist party felt a little uneasy during these remarks. After the meeting was adjourned a large number remained to "talk it over" with him. It was agreed by four pastors present that the Sunday school hour of yesterday should be largely devoted to personal work of the teachers with the scholars to bring them to Christ.
SUNDAY SKKVUT.s.
Yesterday was a busy day with the evangelists. Work began at r:30 with a sunrise prayer meeting at the Haptist church. The building was well tilled. Kev. Ostroin spoke 011 "Personal Consecration." "Bring ye all the tithes into the store house."
At 10:4 he dropped into the Methodist church and unannounced preached for Dr. Tucker, taking as his subject "The Mystery of the New Birth." his text being apart of Nieodeinus' words to Christ. "How can these things be?" He showed how there were many mysteries at which we wondered but which nevertheless we accepted. So with this new birth, we wonder and accept though we do not understand it.
We are sorry we cannot report an outline of the sermon, as Dr. Tucker declares it the best sermon the Evangelist has presented for us.
AFTEHNOllX MKKTI.VGS,
There was a meeting for ladies at the 1. E. church addressed by Kev. G. 1'. l'uson. At the same hour a meeting for men was held in the Y. M. C. A. About liOO were in attendance. A male quartette. Mr. Maxwell, Mr. McCain. Mr. Hughes and Mr. White, furnished excellent music backed by a large chorus of male voices. The quartette sang "Drifting," and "The Wayside Cross.''
Kev. Ostrom's text was: "Xo room for him." He said that it was the marvel of marvels that an individual should come into the world and be born in lowliest circumstances and should die at the age of 33 without ever having wielded a sword, written a book, owned cot or palace, and yet should rise up after being falsely tried and cruelly murdered, to be the one by whose birth time should be measured and who age after age should rise superior to all the world's great ones. Very few men knew anything Alexander or Ctesar ever said or did but there is scarcely a man in an
average audience that don't know what ,Jesus Christ said and did. How strange that such a one should have no pleasant plaee of abode. Yet, not so strange when we r«m»mb»r Him to be a friend of the poorest and to save the lowest. The greatest utUrancu to me that can be made on this earth is: "Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners." Men want to crowd out Jesus Christ to-day. 1. They want to crowd llim out of business life. SI an is becoming an implement of business instead of business becoming an implement of his. Ten thousant lines of business to-day are due to development of the race through Christianity. Why then crowd Christ out? 2. They want to crowd him out of art. There was never any real art until Christ came. There were rude sculptures and ilat pictures but no tine art, no Angelos and Raphaels. 3. They want to crowd him out of literatures. But he has been the very founder of the literature of to-day. Common schools are the outcome of the teachings of Christianity. Their fathers were Luther hi Germany and
Knox in Scotland. There is nothing in Whittier, Browning, Shakespeare, great or strong that is not traceable to Jesus, lie denounced very severely such publications as the l'ullcc Gazette. 4. They want to crowd Christ out of politics, but purify politics by letting Hiin-with his principles of honesty. help for the weak, principles of representative humanity. r. They want to crowd Christ out of the home. 0. They want to crowd him out of the heart. This is the secret of the whole crowding out plan.
Mr. Maxwell sang. "The best friend to have is Jesus." THE KVKNIXO MEETINGS^'
At 7 o'clock the Methodist church was crowded to the doors and the First Presbyterian church was thrown ojen and in ten minutes every seat in it was filled. Rev. Ostrom preached first at the Presbyterian church on Sin a separation from God. "How can 1 do this great evil and sin against God?" It were easier to die, or to be poor, or sick or imprisoned or be a stranger 011 earth than to be separated from God.
Eater at the Methodist church lie preached on "There is but a step betwixt me and death." The city pastors occupied the time at either church when 'Mr. Ostrom was not present. The song service was a special feature last night. A large number remained for the inquiry meetings.
Howard Oileal for Treasurer. The Jouhxai, has the pleasure of announcing to-day a new candidate for Treasurer in the person of E. II. Oneal or, Howard Oneal as he is better known. Mr. Oneal is well known over the entire county as a 'prosperous and enterprising farmer. His integrity and ability to fill the place he aspires to are unquestioned, lie is -IS) years of age and has always lived on his farm, near Yountsville, .with the exception of his years at Wabash College and in the 135th regiment in the service of his country during the war. in both of which places 'he made an honorable record. He was a member of Capt. Jim McClelland's company and Col. Billy Wilson's regiment. Mr. Oneal would add strength to the ticket if the convention should see fit to nominate him.

WHO THEY ARE.
Something of the Lives of Gvangvllat ditto anil Singer Maxwell,
In respons* to a requttt for an interview this morning Mr. Ostrom, the evangelist, whose work closes here today, said: "So you want to write me up. Well, the very best write-up you can give me will be to print an extended report of Saturday's and yesterday's meetings, and to mention the cordiality of the Gregg family, at whose residence 1 have roomed and of the new Nutt Hotel people, where 1 have taken meals, also the tender sympathy of the people of Crawfordsville with me on account of the serious illness of my little girl and the decease of my sister in. Brooklyn. Y."
The facts of Mr. Ostrom's brief life of thirty-two years were obtained from his co-laborer, Mr 'laxwell. Henry was the youngest of a family of eleven children and the only son. llis father was a distinguished lawyer and at one time very wealthy, but before his death met with financial reverses. At the age of sixteen Mr. Ostrom was left to battle with the world for himself. Although his parents were originally from New York, they later moved to Canada, where Henry was born. Consequently it was necessary for him to take out naturalization papers in order to become an American citizen. At the
age of eighteen he began to preach, at the same time teaching in the public schools. Eight years ago he received a call to the Trinity Methodist church in Milwaukee at a salary of S2.000 a year. Mr. Ostrom's parents were Presbyterians. Just a year ago B. Fay Mills conducted a big revival at Milwaukee. and at that time he felt called to enter the evangelistic work. Mr. Mills advised him to do it, as did also Bishop Joyce and at. the following conference he was released from his connections with that body. In the meantime his church did all they could to have him remain and ottered him a salary of S3.S00. In September last he began his work and has since conducted very successful meetings at Madison, Elkhorn, Edgerton and Xenah, Wis., Lafayette, Ind., and other places. He will be at Havana,'111., next week and from there returns to Milwaukee to conduct a revival at one. of the large churches. Mr. Ostrom has a wife and two children who live in Milwaukee. He has a reputation there as a ready after-dinner speaker, and as a lecturer he has also been in great demand. His favorite lecture is called, "The Romance of Manhood.
On December loth he was joined at Madison by Harry Maxwell, ftne of our fellow citizens whose wonderful tenor voice has made him well known throughout a large part of the country. Mr. Maxwell's voice was discovered at
Graliam's
DePauw whore he attended college for six years at different times, taking instruction part of the time in the DePauw School of Music. A year ago last January he studied in the Chicago
Conservatory under B. Bichnell Young, at the same time leading the music in Dr. Swift's church and in the Erie Chapel Mission where Dr. Withrow has charge of 1000 children. lie traveled for over a year with the DePauw Quartette and for six months ith the Schuman Quartette and while in Chicago sang with the Linden Male Quartette. Last September Mr. Maxwell started out with the Alba Heywood company as leader of the Edge wood Quartette and for a time took a part in the play, but he threw up the engagement at the end of a mouth to engage in evangelistic singing, which is more to his taste than the show business. He has sung with evangelists S. A. Keen, and II. A. Brown, and upon leaving the Heywood company joined I)r. Chapman at St. Louis. After that he was with B. Fay Mills a week at Ann Arbor and then joined Mr. Ostrom. Mr. Maxwell was born and raised near Crawfordsville where everybody is his friend and all rejoice in his continued successes. He is 2S years of age. In 188(5 Kev. William Warren and Rev. Aaron Wooil were conducting a revival and Harry, while singing in the choir, was converted. Since that time he has been...active.in the Christian work.
Itelenxed from Jail.
The man placed in jail for having two hams under his arms, was released on Saturday afternoon. He took liis hams and started toward the Junction, intent 011 riding on a freight train. He offered to pay for a telegram to his aunt at Roachale, who he said gave him the meat. These hard times it is dangerous to carry any more meat than you can eat at one meal. The smell of ham, however, pervades the mayor's court, Jand Clerk Scott has made several searches to see if a ham was not left behind.
The Trial Posiponed.
The case against John W. Lucas, of New Market, charged with allowing minors to play pool, etc., was called before Justice Overton this morning. The case seemed to proceed very nicely until a jury was empaneled, then a change of venue was asked. The case will come tip before Justice Chumasero on next Thursday morning. The witnesses were put under $'. recognizance for their appearance.
Tiik greatest beverage is the Thieme & Wagner Brewing Company's l'.ock Beer on tap this week.
