THE CHRISTIAN CONFERENCE.

•'j .•)_ u/v &v

Annual Address by Rev.F. F. Trotter—Candidates for Ordination.

The Western Indiana Christian Conference met on its third day session at Linden last Thursday. A large crowd was present. Many visiting- clergymen from abroad were present. The reading of letters and the hearing' of the clergymen's report were continued and some animated discussions were engaged in. At 11 o'clock Rev. F. P. Trotter, of Darlington, gave the annual address before the body, but the crowd was so large tliat'the audience had to be divided, one part occupying the splendid M. E. church, that audience being addressed by Rev. Chas. E. Brown, of Mellott. The address hy Rev. F. P.Trotter was aii eloquent sermon, and the talented Rev. Brown more than met the expectation of his audience. The body then adjourned for dinner. The afternoon session was occupied with committee reports. The committee's report on ordination !was the most interesting feature of the evening. Nine candidates presented themselves for ordination, but, according to the rules, of the body, only three were eligible and reported on favorably by the committee. The crowds for the afternoon were immense, enough for two large congregations. But the good people of Linden are amply able for the occasion, obtaining homes- for ail and some to spare. At 8 p. m., in the beautiful M. E. church, a perfect jam of people assembled, while outside the streets were lined with people that could not get in, to witness the ordination of three young men.

Hurt in a Runaway Accident. On Monday while driving a horse belonging to Jake Johnson, of Walnut township, Shoop Vail met with a serious accident. The vicious young animal suddenly began plunging and Vail was thrown out with terrific force. His breast and one hand were fearfully bruised and it will be some time before he drives horses again Dr. Gott dressed his wounds.

—Drs. R. C. Flower and G. W. Van Vleck have arranged to visit Indiana professionally, thus affording the sick an opportunity to consult these dis tinguished Eastern specialists at their own homes.

Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Sept 1, 2 and 3, at the Robbins House Lafayette, New Bramble House, Tuesday Sept. 4. The great works of Drs Flower and Van Vleck in curing the sick when given up by all other methods as incurable, have startled the world. These physicians ask their patients no questions—but readily tell every sick person their disease better than the patients could tell it themselves. d&wlt

"PLUMPS" MARLEY AGAIN.

7 'if)it. 4'.

Woman Becomes a Bride and Grass Widow ILqslde of an Hour.

That long missing and much wanted burglar boy, "Plumps" Marley has turned up at Terre Haute and quickly turned down again. The following from the JExpress will interest his friends here:

Elsie Lee, a gay and gaudy gazelle who has on numerous occasions waltzed before the cadi in police court with the easy grace of a 17-year locust, capped the climax of her eventful career' Saturday by coming before Justice Kennett leaning lovingly on the arm of a verdant young man named Charles Marley. She blushingly told the ancient tier of nuptial knots and dispenser of justice that she* and Charley had decided to xjnite their fortunes and their sorrows and jog along life's rugged pathway in the sunlight of each other's smiles. Justice Kennett,on receipt of the proffered 82, tied the matrimonal noose, and the couple strolled out into the street to begin the enjoyment of the honeymoon. They evidently caught the fickle old moon on the last fraction of the last half of the last quarter, for when the sun went down last evening, Elsie.was on the street attired in the same old brindle, loose fitting Mother Hubbard, hunting her newly acquired hubby, and confiding to the policemen whom she chanced to meet, that she intended to have Marley arrested for wife desertion. She also confided to the police that .her new husband, in his sudden ambition to be a non-resident and a grass widower, had left without the formality of kissing her goodbye. Tears the size and shape of newly roasted peanuts rolled down Elsie's painted cheeks as she told the policeman that the saddest of all was that her hubby, in his hurried flight had carried away her pocketbook containingSlo and had left her Hat broke as well as broken hearted.

Marley is a green, gawky fellow who came from Crawfordsville to Terre Haute about five weeks ago and a portion of the time since his arrival here has been employed at Goldsmith's commission liouse. Soon after his arrival here he met the coy Elsie and was, to use the common term, completely mashed'' by her picturesque beauty and winning- ways. He at once decided that no other girl but Elsie would suit his fastidious taste, so he came early to avoid the rush. He met her, passed few unimportant remarks regarding the weather, proposed, was accepted and the wedding came off with a rush. A few moments after the ceremony had been performed the police learned that Marley was wanted for burglary at Crawfordsville. An oflicer went to arrest the alleged fugitive, expecting to find liim by the side of his bride. It was another metropolitan disappointment. Marley had received word of the officer's approach and skipped. Up to a late hour last night he was still at large. Elsie joined in the search for the evasive groom, and it was tip and tuck between the bride and the police last night whether Marley would be captured on a burglar}' charge or whether he would be overtaken by his new wife with a bad temper and long fingernails. As either fate is enough to frighten a man to desperate efforts, it is likely that Charles Marley has made good speed and strolled across the Cherokee strip into No Man's Land at,sunrise Sunday morning.

Will Be a Tame Game.

A exchange says: There is a good deal of uncertaintly in the foot ball world over the change in the rules this year. The foot ball teams are now in hard practice, and without doubt they will keep steadily at work until the season opens in October. At first it was.intended to place the men in the customary way but the changes in the rules have made it necessary to devote particular attention to team work. The flying wedge was the most popular maneuver ever known on the foot ball field, so far as the public is concerned, and its abolition will be regretted by those enthusiasts who demand a sensational game, irrespective of its effect upon the players. Under the new miles mass playing will not be as dangerous, nor, for that matter, as effective as formerly. Only three men will be allowed to start after the ball is whipped back to the quarterback, and kicking will be a prominent feature of the game. Some revision of the rules was rendered necessary by the appalling death list of the foot ball field in the country last year.-''

The free-for-all trot and pace are not yet full but Secretary Morgan reports that both will be elegant races as many fine horses are promised to enter. He secured several at Chicago last week.

W. W. Morgan returned from Chica go last Friday where he saw Robert defeat Joe Patchin Friday. He says Robert finished his 2:05 heat in a slow trot and could have beaten the world's record if urged.
