Doat.h Buds tho Career of Prof. David Swing-.

THE ELOQUENT DIVINE IS NO MORE.

feurroumb-d by IHm Family thoKnd Comet J*uln1«'Nftly--A lirlef Itcrortf of tho Lift* History of an Imminent

Theologian.

H1B VOICE IIUSH1CI).

C'lir At.o,Oct. 4.—l'rof. DavidSwing, the eminent theologian and preacher, passed away Wednenday afternoon at 5:05 o'clock. Ilia death was painless, and those who stood at his bedside watching and waiting" hardly knew whether it was Bleep or death until tho physician looked up with the story In his face.

Prof. Swing was taken sick at 0 o'clock a week ago labt Saturday. While walking out during the morning he suffered a chill, a quickly succeeded by perspirau. A few a jaundice made its appearance. but owing to the fact that Prof. Swing was subject to similar attack# little attention was paid to it. On Monday afternoon, however, he was taken with another chill and grew suddenl}' worse. Dr. Davis was immediately callcd. After being treated the patient seemed to grow much better, but on Monday there was a relapse, and Dr. Isham and Dr. L'enger were called in to hold a consultation. In spite of all they could do, however. Prof. Swing grew steadily worse until Wednesday night. He was unconscious most of the time during the last three days of his Illness, aud his death was without pain.

I'KOF. SWING.

The Funeral.

Arrangements will be made this morning for the funeral exeroises. Wherever the professor may be burled, funeral and memorial exeroises will be held here, and the probability i6 several ministers will participate in them. If any one of them is todellver a discourse it will probably be Rev. Dr. Thomas C. Hall, of the Fourth Presbyterian church, of which the professor was for years the pastor.

The probabilitj* is the professor will bo buried at Oxford, O. Mrs. Swing, who died in 1870. is burled there, and over her grave there has been erected a large tombstone, as if for all of the faiuilj* who might follow her to the grave. On the other hand, the Ricker family, that of his daughter, have their burial lots at Cincinnati, and the Central church may put in a strong plea to have the grave of Its beloved pastor in Chicago, even if it were necessary to briug the remains of his wife here that they may bleep by his side. The matter will be discussed and decided on this morning.

An olHcer of the Central church said he thought Prof. Swing died a comparatively poor man. lie ownod his elegant residence on the Lake Shore drive and his country place at Lake Geneva, but his friends thought he could not have more than $0,000 boside. The professor's salary as pastor of the Central church varied from j'ear to 3'car, and averaged £y,000 a year. Hut he was entirely free from avarice, paid no attention to money-making and was a liberal giver.

Kuturo of the Chureh Inktiown. What the future of the Central church will be is unknown, but some of its members do not hesitate to say it will probably be disbanded. It has always been founded entirely on Prof. Swing's personality. It had no motive but to keep him in the pulpit and to preserve his preachiug and influence to the city aud to the world while he lived. With his removal, it is thought by some members of the congregation, there will be no object in continuing such an independent movement.

Career of tho Late Divine.

David Swing was born in Cincinnati, O., August 28, 18?0. ills pureuta were in moderate circumstances, anil bin father was a steamboat enptutn and a man of considerable prominence on the rivor aiul In Cincinnati. His mother was a devoted Christian, and Prof. Swing In his lectures, talks, scrmous aud writings had borno testimony to the mother who early taught blm those principles and precepts which later developed Into the characteristics which distinguished hkn.

When he was 10 years old his parents moved to a form 30 miles from the city. There the boy. who was to become a famous man. lived until he was 18 years old, working in tho fields in summer and attending distriot school in winter. Then ho was sent to Miami college In Oxford. O., where for two years he sat at the same desk with Benjamin Harrison. Ho was graduated in 1H62 with high honors.

While attending Miami college he determined to preach, and for two years after his graduation ho studied theology with Kev. Dr. Rice, of Cincinnati, as instructor. He then returned to Miami college as professor of the ancient languages and taught there for twelve years. Ho married Elizabeth Porter, daughter of Dr. Porter, of Oxford, In 1850, and In 1838 he acoepted a call from tho Westminster Presbyterian church of Chtcago.

Soon after Prof. Swing was installed pastor of Westminster churoh it united with the old North churoh and became the Fourth Presbyterian church. Tho fire of 1871 burned out the churoh and destroyed the homes of all but two of the congregation. Prof. Swing's with the rest. Ho preached in Standard hall after the Are. but his reputation brought such crowds to hear him that It became necessaiy to use McVicker's theater uutil the new Fourth church could be built.

Tried on Charges of Heresy. In 1874 Prof. Swing was tried on oharges of heresy. The charges were preferred before tho presbytery by Dr. Francis Landy Patton, now president of Princeton university. The trial was the event of the day. The interest in it was uot local nor confined to the Presbyterian church. In all parts of the country the Presbyterian church was divided into two parties— those for and against Prof. Swing. The charges were brought April 18, 1*74. Dr. Patton, who st that tlmo was editor of tho Interior, appeared as prosecutor and the defense was conducted by Dr. George C. Noyes, who was pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Evanston, and Dr. It. W. Patterson. The trial lasted six weeks. The presbytery consisted of about sixty members, the minister aud deacon from each ohureh In the district.

ORAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4,1894

Prof. Swing spoke In bis own defense, and his fcatire, logic, eloquence and arguments made such a deep impression thai on the ballot ho was acquitted by a vote of 46 to l&

Withdrew from the Church. Dr. Patton, however, appealed to the synod. In the meantime Prof. Swing had withdrawn from the church, but continued to preach to his old congregation in the Fourth church, which had stood by him from the beginning. When tho synod convened the Chicago presbytery was not* allowed to voto. Tho resignation previously sent in was nullified and Prof. Swing was expelled from the Presbyterian church as a heretic. Even after his expulsion his congregation stood by him, and it was not until Dr. Patton threatened to Involve the presbytery for permitting an expelled member to continue in the church that Prof Swing stepped out altogether.

Then his friends gathered arouhd him. They institutes the Central church and installed him as pastor. For two years the new Independent ohuroh met In MeVloker's theater. The Independent church movement proved so suooessful that It was determined to build a permanent structure. This decision resulted In the building of Central muslo hall, in which Prof. Swing ever afterward preached to congregations whioh filled the house. Ho preached his last last sermon Sunday before last.

Control Over

Madagascar aiul Blockade of the l'ortii of the Latter Country the Cause. 'AL.MOM A I- MVOHIVS POINTS.

OCT.

4.—

Another war scare.

And this tune it looks serious. The pnnouneement made that France has blockaded the port* of the island of Madagascar, a lar^-c part of which is owned by Hriti^h capital, has made a tremendous sensation.

It is the one topic at the clubs and the newspaper otilces and in the hotel lobbies. There is a g-eneral belief that France has shown her hand at last and that in spite of tho friendly assurances of a section of the French press the IClysee means to force an Issue off the lCnst African coast.

Cabinet Summoned.

The hasty summoning of the cabinet is an indication that official circles are unexpectedly and gravely agitated. It was supposed that Lord llosebery would not summon his colleagues until November, and just prior to the lord iiuiyor annual bumjnet. The ministers are scattered in everv direction.

Sir William llarcourl. who started Tuesday for Milan, had reached l'aris when he received a peremptory summons from Lord Kimberlev to return to London immediately. Mr. Camp-llbe-Uanneiinun. minister of war, received his summons in Paris. Hoth are flying back bv special trains.

There is no recent case where any such expedition has been insisted upon for the purposes of a cabinet council, and the inference is too obvious to be ignored. The current opinion is that I-nitice, thinking that Ln^land's hands are tied up by the .1 apaiicse-China war, has decided to eliminate Itritish influence in Madagascar.

A Serloutt llltrh.

There is no reasonable doubt that another and very serious hitch has occurred in the diplomatic negotiations with France relative to Egypt and west and central Africa. Possibly frosh trouble also has arisen in connection with Madagascar. The current talk in oflicial circles iB of sensational developments in the French-Russian policy in the war east, but this appears to be conjecture. It is most probable that France, encouraged bv the recent apparent, weakness of tho British foreign oflice, has suddenly sprung a demand upon the government which has staggered even Klinberley. and which, if persisted in, will bring about a crisis which may result In war, because Kosebery and his colleagues have almost reached the limit of their complaisance toward France.

All the afternoon papers gravely discuss the hasty summoning of the cabinet council, and it is generally accepted as being connected with some serious dltllcultv with France.

Madagascar, Oct. 1.—A

blockade of the ports of the island of Madagascar has been proclaimed by France. Tho resilient general has gone to Tainatave. He has been instructed to take measures to protect the colonists in the event of war.

I'ams, Uct. 4.—The Matin s:iys that Madagascar can offor no possible subject for a dispute between France aud Groat Britain.

The minister of foreign affairs, M. Hauotaux, denies that a blockade of the island of Madagascar has been proclaimed by France.

Cmil. of tlio Trouble.

NEW YOHK, Oct. 4.—The dispute between France and England In regard to Madagascar is one of long standing. Madagascar is a large Island, separated from the southeastern portion of Africa by the Mozambique channel. It is now virtually under a French protectorate, althongh It is claimed in England that at least oneseventh of the island is held by British oapital. But the French embassy in Loudon recently answered a communication from the Madagascar consul in London by a formal statement thai officially there is no longer such a pei^ son as a London Madagascar consul, as, it was added, the agents of France In various countries represent the Hovas governmen t.

Early last month tho French government evidently determined upon taking decided action in regard t« Madagascar, probably believing thai the hands of England were tied by the complications brought aboul through the war between China and Japan. Consequently M. LeMyre de VIllers was sent on a special mission to Madagascar and it was understood that he was to all Intents and purposes Instructed to demand the abdication of the government and to annex the island to Franoe.

The death list now known is not so larg-e as was expected, but there are several persons missing- and their names may yet be added to the roll of the dead. So far as reports received now indicate the dead number four and the injured thirty-four.

W i«ck»g:e of Hullillngft.

Almost every building'between Main and MarUham and Third and Main streets was unroofed and in numerous instances entire frontH were leveled to the ground. Un liast .MarUham street the destruction of property was greater than elsewhere. Several large buildings were leveled and uot one escaped injury. Windows and doors were blown out, tin roofs carried away, telephone and electric light wires blown to the ground, and poles twisted off at the curbing.

At llie .Asylum.

It was at the insane asylum where the most complete wreck was to be. The buildings erected by tho state at a cost of 8800,000 are located 011 a prominence miles west of the business portion of the city and offered a splendid target for the fury of the storm. Thousands of people in buggies and on horseback thronged the road to the ruins this morning. The ruin was not complete, but the damage is estimated at from 975,000 to S150.000. There was one death here, Dr. J. T. Ingato, second assistant physician. He and I)r. Robin»on, the superintendent, wore standlug in the hall just before the storm Btruok and as they separated to go to their rooms the two towers which crowned the main oflico portion crashed through the throe stories, burying Dr. Ingate under the debris of one of them. Dr. Ilobinson had a narrow escape, but by pressing up against the wall while briolis and heavy timbers were flying about his head in the dark, the lights having been at once extinguished, he succeeded in getting out without Injury. A heavy force of men worked all night and forenoon In removing the debris to lind the body of the unfortunate physician, but his remains were not uncovered until 11 o'clock. He was found under a mass of brick aud timbers in the vestibule of tho main building, lying un his face aud mangled beyond recognition. His remains were forwarded to his parents at Mobile, Ala.

Fifteen Innmtoi l£«capo.

Besides the destruction wrought in tho main building, the east wall of tho male ward was completely torn away. Wards 1, 8, 5 and 7 are a total wreck. The roof is blown off, and debris has been fonnd half a mile east. Pandemonium reigned after tho fury of tho storm had been spent. The cells in the south wing were occupied by inmatos at the time. Fifteen escaped, but all except seven were recaptured. These are still missing, and it la not known whether they were killed or are at large.

At the 1'enltentiarj.

The storm did damage at the state penitentiary estimated to aggregate 530,000. The south half of the roof of the cell-house was completely torn away and carried outside tho walla Tho windows were broken out, but little damage was done to the interior. Many of the convicts were in their cells at the time and wereuothurt. The new workhouse, chapel and kitchen were badly wrecked. The third story and the east wall of the second story were blown down and are lying between it and the house, a vast mass of brick and mortar. The west wall was cracked at the floor and inclined to the east 46 degrees. It was in thl» building where the only death occurred. J. F. Urifflth. a white man, sent up from Clay county, was descending the stairway from the third Btory when tho wall caved in and burled him In the debris. His remains, badly mangled, were removed from the ruins Wednesday morning.
