The evangelistic work of Itev. .1. V. Updike, of Fort Wayne, began Sunday at the Christian church under the most auspicious circumstances. Both morning- and evening the commodious edifice was crowded by interested throngs eager to hear and profit. Long before the time for services people began to arrive at the church and in the evening standing room was at a premium, many being turned away. The subject of the morning discourse was

The Disciples Work Greater than their Lord's" and it proved a very powerful argument. The singing conducted by Mr. J. E. Hawes, of Ada, Ohio, was also magnificent and added

Mr. Updike is one of the most wonderful pulpit orators in the Christian church or any church so far as that is concerned and impresses his hearers alike with his eloquence and earnest-

Ward Burrows' Keturn.

Hill Slattex-y, a guard of the Northern prision, arrived in the city last Saturday in charge of Ward Burrows, who was granted a new trial by the Supreme Court. Ward looked like a seedy hobo tramp. When imprisoned he had sent his dude clothes back to Crawfordsville by his attorneys, so when returned by the prison authorities he was togged out in the duds of an indigent convict who died there last month of chicken pox. Ward was mighty glad to get back and thinks that he will surely get off at his next trial. He wasn't exactly smitten with prison life and fare.

Barn Burned.

The barn of George Mears, two miles north of Mace, was struck by lightning last Saturday night from which it caught fire and burned to the ground. It contained 750 bushels of corn, 30 bushels of wheat, 3 tons of hay, and all his farming implements, including binder, corn planter, wagon, three buggies, and harness. The total loss will be $800 or §1,000 with no insurance. .,•••

Special in The Jo lrnal. ••. II ii.i.shouo. April ISO. 1S!) i.—SherilV Moore yesterday morning arrested Jesse llooe. who has been wanted in this county for several months past, 011 a charge of petit larceny. It will be remembered that Booe was convicted in Crawfordsville, about a year ago for stealing meat from a Mr. Dice, and received a GO days sentence in jail. When his time expired he was brought to this county and placed in jail at Covington. on a charge of stealing meat from .1. 1'. Cooper, lie was bailed out, however, under a bond of 8500, his grandfather, with whom he has always made his home, going on the same. When his trial was called lie

sented to him signed by several hun dred of Fountain county's most in fluential citizens. Sheriff Moore has kept a sharp lookout for Booe since he disappeared and has several times been very near him but could never ar rest him. A detective traced Booe

night train and deputized a liaif dozen citizens to assist in the capture of Booe. The house was surrounded and men stationed at all the doors and windows. The .Sheriff rapped on the door, and in a moment Booe was down stairs but there was no possible means for him to escape. The Sheriff finally gained admittance and placed Booe under arrest. He was immediately handcuffed and taken to jail. The Sheriff admitted that he never could have taken Booe single handed and it is doubtful if he would have ever caught him at all had he not surrounded the house.

Jesse Booe came from a high and well respected family and his actions have not only cast a gloom over his relatives but the community also. No blame can be attached to his grandfather for he did not know Booe was

there. Abetter and kinder old man

ne.ver lived than uncle Jesse Mendenhall. Jesse Booe was reared in an honest life, but he fell in with bad associates and for the past two or three years has led a wild and reckless life. A little over a year ago he was married to Emma Crique, of Crawfordsville. It is thought here that Booe will get not less than two years in Michigan City.

A DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.

TranU Clrint'iits Kast Sal unlay As llo is

Almost Instantly Killed l*y a l-'rartinus llnrso •"tarting to Work.

The city was inexpressible shocked last Saturday by the intelligence that I'

'rank A. Clements had been killed by a horse at his home, just north of the ity on Whitloek avenue. The accident is a peculiarly distressing one and emoves from a sphere of usefulness a most excellent citizen. The particulars of the sad affair are as follows.

Last Saturday shortly before!) o'clock Mr. Clements went out to the stable to harness horses for the purpose of going to the field to plow. Friday evening he had hired a horse of Willis McGrigg to assist him in the work. It was his intention to have Johnny VanClcave follow the plow and do the work of sub-soiling. Young VanCleave had charge of one of Mr. Clements' regular horses which was too tired for the heavy work of breaking up. Its place had been tilled by the McGrigg horse. Young VanCleave had gone to the field with his horse and when Clements had put the harness 011 the three other horses and led them to the watering trough the strange animal began to snap and bite at its mates who returned the favor with interest

As they were led from the trough one of the horses bit one of the. other animals, causing him to rear up. Mr Clements, who had hold of the leading strap, was thus thrown around so that when the horse's fore foot or knee descended it struck him full in the pit of the stomach with terrific force. 11c fell to the ground and little Johnny Burroughs, who was standing near, and Mrs. Frank Gillispie, who witnessed the accident, immediately ran to him. His sister, Mrs. Iiutton, and his grandmother were also on the spot almost immediately. The unfortunate man was unconscious but was still breathing. Others came running up. He was quickly carried to the renter's house, occupied bv Frank Gillispie, near the stable, and restoratives were freely administered. He nevei regained consciousness, however, and in less than five minutes had ceased to breathe.

Dr. J. N. Taylor was summoned but pronounced life extinct. The news was broken to his wife as gently as possible but she was utterly prostrated by it and lies at. her home in a pitiful condition. His aged mother, Mrs. Ruth Clements, is also prostrated by the terrible tragedy.

An examination of the body shows no mark of violence so it is probable that it was the horse's knee and not his foot that struck Mr. Clements. The little Burroughs boy who was standing by, is unable to say just how it occurred or which horse did the irreparable mischief.

Frank Clements was born August 18, 1S54, at Lafayette and was 40 years of age. He was for a number of years connected with the Monou railroad, leaving it shortly after his marriage to Laura Iiutton, sixteen years ago. lie worked up on the. road to the position of passenger conductor and was popular with all who knew liim. lie was engaged in farming after quitting the road. He leaves a family of a wife and three daughters. He was a quiet, industrious gentleman of whom only good could be said. He was liked by all and his death is indeed a shock to the entire community.

The funeral of Frank Clements occurred Monday at o'clock conducted by Uev. G. 1'. Ftison, the interment being at Oak Hill. A large concourse of friends attended the services and Harry Maxwell sang two beautiful solos. The pall bearers were Ed O'llaver and the five brothers of the deceased. They are Charles Clements, of Duluth, Minn. Walter Clements, of Lafayette Tom Clements, of West Point, and Will and Ed Clements, of LaBelle, Missouri.

CHARGED WITH BIBLE STEALING.

Kst'np'

Vnitn An Olllorr -KH uvimmI iiihI (luvo .11 imMcir 1 II,

John Ha vis. a colored man, who was wanted on the charge of stealing a Uible, and who escaped from Constable ias the other day, walked up to Marshnl Brothers Saturday morning and slapping him 011 the shoulder, said: "1 want to give myself up."

That was all right and he was soon 111 jail. There is a charge against Davis of stealing a Bible from Anna Sanders, but he denies it and will accordingly stand trial. The first of last week Bias want out and arrested Davis while he was mixing mortar, and accompanied him home so he codld change his clothing and be clothed in fine linen when arranged before Justice Cliumeraso, 011 the serious charge of

Bible stealing, lie changed his clothes and put a revolver in his pocket. When the Constable and Davis reached the gate to the Crawford pasture, west of the college, Davis made a break for the gate. Bias caught his leg as lie went over but could not hold on, so Davis fell in a heap, and when lie gathered himself up he held a revolver in liis hand and shook it at Bias. Bias said if that was hisgame he. could take a hand in it also. Davis turned and run toward the woods while Bias increased his speed somewhat by firing three shots after liim. Since then lie has been in hiding. There are now three charges against liim and he will alse be charged with resisting an officer.

Astronomy AVItluui Opera Glass. To tlie Editor Journal.

But few persons aside from those who work with telescopes, have seen, the planet Uranus. As he is just visible to the naked eye under favorable circumstances, one must know ju«t where to look to find him. The present is an excellent opportunity as lie has just passed conjunction with the second magnitude star a Librae, being only about one-eighth of the moving diameter above or north of that star. About 9 o'clock in the evening two very bright stars may be seen in the southeast very near each other. The northerly one is Saturn—the other about six degrees south is Spica (a Virginia). To the east of this fine pair of stars and about four times their distance apart, may be seen two second magnitude stars about nine degrees apart. The southwesterly one of these stars is a Librae. a Librae is a wide double star and Uranus just now forms a very small triangle with the two components. Uranus is retrograding (that is moving westward) very slowly, so that he will be in the vicinity of the star for several days. An opera glass will show him as a greenish colored star but it requires a much higher power-, to show a planetary disc.

The Human Electrical Forces!

How They Control the Organs of the Body.

Tho clectrlcal forco of the human body, as the norvo fluid may bo termed, is an especially attractive department of science, as it exerts so marked un Influence on the health of the organs of tho body. Nervo forco in produced by tho brain and conveyed by muansof tho nerves to the various organs of tho body, thus supplying tho latterwith th# vitality necessary to 11sure their health. Tho pneumogastric nerve, as shown here, may bo said to be the most important of the entire nervo system, as it supplies tho heart, lungs, stomach, bowels, etc., with the nervo force necessary to keep them active and healthy. As will be seen by tho cut the long nerva in base of the brain and terminating In the bowels is tho pneumogastric, 1 while the numerous lit-J tlo branches supply th heart, lungs and stom' ach with necessary vitality. When the Drain becomes in any way dls ordered by Irritabilitj or exhaustion, the nerve force which it supplies1 is lessened, and the organs receiving the diminished supply are consequently weakened.

Physicians generally fall to recognlre. the importance of this fact, but treat the organ itself Instead of the cause of the trouble The noted specialist, Franklin Miles, M. D., LL. B., has given the greater part of his'life to the study of this sublect, and the principal discoveries concerning it are due to his efforts.

Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine, the unrivaled brain and nerve food, is prepared on tho principle that all nervous and many other difficulties originate from disorders of the nerve centers. Its wonderful success In curing these disorders is testified to by thousands in every part of the land. ltestoratlve Nervine cures sleeplessness, nervous prostration, dizziness, hysteria, sexual debility, fat.
