THE CASKET COMPANY.
The Successor to the Coffin Company Iieady for Business—Officer* Elected.
The formal transfer of the plant of the Crawfordsvilla Coffin Company to the new Casket Company occurred last night. The stockholders of the new institution met at the office of the company and decided to accept the propotion of the Coffin company to turn over the plant and all book accounts for S70.000. By-laws were also adopted. The directors of the Casket Company then met and elected officers as follows:
President—W. P. Herron "vice-President—John S. Brown. Secretary and Treasurer—M. B. Binford.
Charley Marshall has been employed as bookkeeper and Mr. Binford will act as general manager in the place of Capt. R. E. Bryant. Thus the new company starts out under most favorable auspices. They will continue to put our as handsome a line of coffins as can be manufactured in the country, and in addition will probably in the future branch into the furniture business. The history of the coffin factory is typical of the growth of all substantial business institutions and fully represents the progress of Crawfordsville during the past twenty-six years. In ISO'S Win. Robertson,deceased, Capt. R. E. Bryant. Paul Burns and B.
F. Cox, deceased, put their brains, muscle and what little money they could muster together and under the name of Wm. Robertson & Co., started in a small way to make coffins. They all did manual labor and had few employes. Their factory occupied the same spot where the planing mill of the company is now located. The business grew so rapidly that on May t' 1874, it was necessary -to increase th plant. A stock company was organized with 860,000 capital. Later it was increased to 390,000. Joseph Milligan was the first President of the Coffin Company and remained in that position until his retirement from active affairs a few years ago. He was succeeded by Capt. Herron. Wm. Robertson was manager of the factory from the beginning until his death when he was succeeded by Capt. R. E. Bryant, who had also been with the company from the beginning a« Secretary. The factory's full force is thirty-six hands, some of whom have been with the company for ten, fifteen and twenty years. One man has been in continuous employ for twenty-four years.
Base Ball To-Day.
The base ball team from the State University at Bloomington arrived in arrived in the city this afternoon and is busily engaged in administering to the wants of the Wabash team this afternoon on the campus.
The I. U. team is half professional, three of its men being professional players of years experience. The Wabash team does not hope to defeat I. U. and protests the game in advance, it -being
against the rules of the state athletic association for any team to play a professional. Utter, the pitcher for I. U. enjoys the proud distinction of having killed a man last summer at Muncie b3striking him in the head with a pitched ball. The I. U. team has on its list four of the finest ball plaj'ers in Indiana, either amateur or professional, namely Utter, Ferguson, McMullen and the famous "Con" Daily.
To establish a Kate.
The Water & Light Company are placing test meters in the residences of several of their patrons to demonstrate that by the use of meter service an exceedingly low water rate can be obtained, The company claims that rates will be greatly lowered by the use of meters. The test meters wili be placed with M. B. Binford, Willis Cox, two at Wabash College. W. T. Brush. A. Kostanzer, Frank Davis.
Probably Fatal Accident.
A1 Stej'i:ns, a teamster of Tinkersville, three miles south of here, met with what may prove a fatal accident Wednesday evening at Happy Hollow, lie upset his wagon loaded with a log, and was caught under the log and crushed almost to death. The log caught him on the chest and held him down until help arrived and rolled the log off of him. He was still alive this morning bat the chances of recovery are against him.
A Surplus of Orphans.
The directors of the Orphans' Home say that there are a number of excellent children at the institution who are ready to go to suitable homes in any part of the county. The boys are old enough to help about the planting and harvesting and the girls are capable of assisting in house work. They will be let otit to responsible persons on thirty days' trial.
The Y. M. C. A. Junior* Arrange For Their Summer Outing—Officer* Elected.
The Y. M. C. A. Juniors held an enthusiastic meeting in their rooms yesterday afternoon and transacted much business of importance. They made preliminary arrangements for their annual outing. There will be two divisions, the first going June 22 to stay a week and the second division is to go the following week. X. C-. McCay will be in charge of the camp, which will be at Hibernian Mills. Edgar Seawright, the treasurer, made his annual report showing a balance on hand of S07. Officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows:
President—R. P. Youngman. Vice-President—Ralph McBroom. Secretary—Harry Taylor. Treasurer—Edgar Seawright.
CRAWFORDSYILLE'S CCRSES.
Kev. I'pdike Discourses Concerning the Shortcoming* of the Hoosier Athene Last Evening.
Notwithstanding the stormy weather yesterday afternoon the services at the Christian church were well attend ed. Mr. Hawes sang "What Will it Matter?" a very beautiful solo. Rev Updike talked upon the subject, "Rebuilding the Wall," taking for his texl Nehemiah 2. 17. The discourse was a most interesting one and profitable.
The subject of Rev. Updike's dis course last night was "What Craw fordsville Needs," in which the city received a severe rebuke for its wickedness. and especially worldliness among church members. It was 'an eloquent discourse upon themes most important to consider, and it is impossible in the short space here alotted to give a full synopsis. He took for his text Luke xiii, 3 and 5. After giving us the scriptural meaning of [repentan which means more than simply sorrow for sins committed, but means getting right with God, with humanity and with ourselves. It is a changing of the mind and life from the conviction of having done wrong. John the Baptist and Jesus and the apostles all preached repentance. He plainly showed to us that repentance is the great need of Crawfordsville. It is needed among church members. Crying over your sins and failing to quit them is not re pentance. Judas Iseariot after be traying his Saviour into the hands of his enemies repented, threw the money at Jesus' feet, and went out and hanged himself, but was that the right kind of repentance? No, because his life was not made any better. "Sorrows of the world worketh death but
Godly sorrow worketh repentance." A religion that don't make men better is not worth having. In the first place the churches of this place need to rerepent of their sectarianism. The world cannot be saved without united effort upon the part of the church. John xvii, 21 says, "That they all may be one as thou, father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us. that the world may believe that thou hast sent me." I don't say that you have too many houses of worship for you haven't seating capacity for much more than one-third of your population. The people of God should unite upon the Bible because they never can unite upon human creeds if they did it would be wrong. "If ye continue in my word then are ye my c'iciples, and ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free."— John 3:31-32.
Would this people agree to unite with a man who says it will not do to preach the truth? 1 Pet. 1:22: ',Seeing you have purified your souls in obeying the truth." The second need is to overthrow the saloon. If the good people were united in the support of the officers of the law you could soon get rid of "Goose Nibble' and the saloon power would soon be overthrown. Where are the young men in this city to-night? Where is my wondering boy to-night? Prof. Hawes sang: (Answer to Where Is my Boy To-night?") Where Is ray wandering- boy tc-nl(rht?
Down In the licensed saloon. Down In the room all cozy and bright, Filled with the glare of manv a light, Beautiful music the ear to delight, Down in the licensed saloon.
Cno —There is my wandering bo? tc-nlght, There is my wandering boy to-night: Down, down, down, down,
Down in the licensed saloon.
I-earning new vices all the night long, Tempted to all that is sinful and wrong. 'V: I.isteclng to the harlot's foul song, Djwn In the licensed saloon. Little arms were once thrown round my neck, i/ook at him now: my poor heart will break: Think of that boy to-night, a sid wreck: Down in the licensed saloon. Brother, I guess you'd join in this fight, If It was your boy down there to-night, Kulned and wrecked by the drink appetite, Down in tne licensed saloon.
The saloon power harbors the loafing classes men who sit upon boxes and tell vulgar stories and use profane language in the presence of children and make remarks .about ladies who pass along the street should be shut up in prison where they will be out of the way, for every day they are away from the penitentiary they are away from [.their homes their wives and mothers laboring hard to support them. It is just as much harm to dance and play cards in the home as at the saloon and ball room. Why is it you should want to make your home resemble a saloon or house of ill-fame? There is no Christian minister to my knowledge but what will condemn the modern dance and the card table. He then made a plea for all to take their stand upon the truth and work for better government, better society, better lives and better homes.

POLICE FORCE CHANGES.
A Caucus of the Council Portend* Several .Material Changes In Btunlclpal Government.
The new Council held a caucus last night and took steps toward reorganization for the ensuing year. It is stated that there will be no startling changes in the force of either the fire or electric light departments but there will certainly be in the police force. While the action taken last night is not final and is subject to change, it is understood that the resignations of Officers Gill, Transue and Milholland were accepted. Hereafter police will be hired by the month, and if at the end of a month a man's service has not been satisfactory he will quietly retire. Each man will have his own beat and be responsible for it. The police board wUl probably go. The gentlemen who go onto the organized police force besides Officers Brothers and Grimes, are the following: Ed Martin, colored, Charlie Hirst, Frank Wade and Enoch Bannister. There will be two police for the famous Goose Nibble district, one night and one day man. Ed Martin will be one of these. All these gentlemen are highly recommended forithe place, but have yet their records to make. If any one of them does not succeed he will stand aside. It were a pity to spoil a good citizen to make a bad policeman and the Council has determined not to do this. THE JOITRXAI. believes these men, who will probably be appointed next Monday evening, will make good and efficient officers.
They have been excellent citizens and there is no reason why their official careers should not correspond with those of their private lives.
