SUNDAY SCHOOL NEWS-

To the Editor of The Journal. Perhaps the best convention in the history of the Coal Creek township Sunday School Association was held at the Methodist church, Wingate, last Friday. President Joseph S. Henry had advertised it well by personally visiting every school in the township and, as a result every school sent a large delegation. Five counties were represented. The programme was carried out in full and discussions were interesting and helpful. The church building was filled with people during the entire day. The next convention will be held at Elmdale six months henca. ^v./:

[.Special Correspondence Crawfordsville Journal.] WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 13.—This has been a week of political sensations. Senor Dupuy DeLome's bad break created much surprise in consular and diplomatic circles and has added inspiration to the jingo statesmen who desire war with Spain, and who are wildly catching at any straw that will add fuel to the flames of their ambition.

The distinguished alleged diplomat has proven to the world that he was not, in a technical sense, entitled to that elevated characterization. As a diplomat he has shown that he is sadly deficient in some of the most important, essential elements of diplomacy, viz: prudence and caution. He well knew that he was constantly under the espionage of the secret agents of the Cuban junta, whose spies were shadowing his every foot step and whose agents were in close touch with the Spanish legation, therefore his indiscreetness, to call it by no harsher term, is the more astounding. The fact that his private letter to a friend was intercepted and stolen, however despicable and infamous that act may be, is no apology or excuse for the sentiment or animus that prompted itB production, and was an inexcusable breach of diplomatic usage and official courtesy that called for prompt and drastic resentment. Under these provoking circumstances President McKinley has dealt very leniently with the unfortunate embassador, and will take no further steps in the matter than is necessary to maintain his own honor and the dignity of this country.

Senor DeLome was very popular in diplomatic and official circles here and always a prominent figure in social functions. His unfortunate "faux pas" is greatly deplored by a large circle of friends who believed him innocent of the petty spites and piques that characterized, his unfortunate letter.

The Democratic side of the House was in a bad humor on Thursday and the entire day was spent in idle fillibustering, which by a clever trick of Mr. Dingley was ended in much discomfort to the Democratic side. After the approval of the journal the House proceeded in the further consideration of the Indian appropriation bill. Representative Bailey obtained the floor and yielded thirty minutes of his time to Mr. Handy, of Delaware, who was loaded with a speech in answer to a recent letter from Hon. Thos. H. Bayard, in which that gentleman excoriated the free silver ideas of the Bryan ^Democracy. As soon as Mr. Handy disclosed the character of the speech he intended making Mr. Dalzell raised the point of order that the gentleman's remarks were not germane or pertinent to the question before the House. Speaker Reed promptly sustained the point of order and at once bedlam broke loose in Dixie. A half dozen members were on their feet at once, each one claiming recognition. Order was finally restored and Mr. Bailey was permitted to make a statement, or rather an argument against the ruling of the chair. Mr. Reed in reply in a very earnest and dignified manner said that the greatest latitude had been given to the minority to make speeches of an extraneous import in the consideration of appropriation bills when the House was in committee of the whole, that was allowed by sufferance of members who had not raised the point of order that be as speaker while he could have called a member to order upon his own volition, had also extended the same charity that had been accorded them by the committee, yet as the point had been raised and was clearly in violation of the rules he sustained the point of order. Another outbreak followed but was soon squelched. Division was called for upon the vote to sustain the previous question, then tellers, and finally the ayes and noes, and at every point of legislation from that time on the same tactics were resorted to, consequently the entire afternoon was taken up in an almost continuous roll call, and our Democratic friends were highly elated at their success in retarding legislation. They did not know that Mr. Dingley held a joker up his sleeve which he was going to spring upon them at an unguarded moment. Friday is a day specially set apart for the consideration of bills upon the private calendar and our Democratic friends are very largely interested in a majority of these bills, many of which ask for large appropriations for war indemnities, and other appropriations of a personal or local character. Knowing thi6 Mr. Dingley at about 5 o'clock p. m. moved that the House adjourn until next Monday at 12 o'clock. This waB a bomb in the enemy's camp that created consternation. Knowing that another week must elapse before their pet meas-' ures could be considered they became frantic with rage. Representative Richardson got up and moved the House do now adjourn, and claimed that his motion was a privileged one had precedence over a mo­

tion to adjourn to a day fixed A hot argument ensued. The Speaker decided very properly, that according to i„

his interpretation of*the rules of the House and of common sense, a motion to adjourn to a day fixed clearly had precedence over a motion to adjourn. Whereupon the House adjourned to meet on Monday. The jeers and laughter at the discomfiture of the Democratic side was tantallizing in the extreme, and our

Democratic I

friends will have three entire days to

cffect of the resolutions adopted. I

have talked with several of our Indi-j

ana Congressmen, and tbe consensus

of opinion was that the resolution with reference to the "Ohio Boss" was unwise and impolitic at this peculiar juncture in our political situation that

harmony in large and substantial

chunks was the especial desire of all Republicans at this time: that all side issues and local dissensions should be subordinated to the general good in the face of our common enemy. Ail of these gentlemen, however, are rejoiced to think that General Harrison will lend the influence and encouiagement of his distinguished personality in the future success of the party in Indiana, which will add confident assurance of our success this fall and later on.

General Harrison is to-day one of our most distinguished citizens and statesmen, and true to his patriotic impulses he rccoguizss the importance of a thorough organization of the best elements of the party if we hope for success. When the bone and sinew of the Republic—the men who furnish the brains and the sinews and arteries of trade and commerce—will leave their ooffices, their shops und their counting houses and devote a portion of their valuable time in the laudable effort to place the political affairs of the nation in the control of its friends, then will successcrown our efforts and the occupation of the political mountebank and ward heeler be terminated. The righteous indignation of a great people when once aroused is terrible and always potent in arresting the hand of the political assassin, who threatens threatens the life, liberty and happiness of the citizens. The political struggle now confronting us is one of grave importance, as the same issues that aroused the patriotism of the country in in 1S9G, wiil again be presented, and the prosperity and progress of the country be again threatened. This free silver revolution, reinforced by the very worst elements of all political parties will present a bold and formidable front and must be fought to a finish if we would maintain the honor and integrity of the nation and a conspicuous place npon the map of the world. Therefore in union there is trength—in union there is inevitable success.

The President is vexed almost beyond human endurance over the unfortunate state of political affairs in several of the Southern States upon the question of the dispensing of patronage, and the work of turning out the rascals has been seriously retarded. he trouble is that the leaders of the party wbo are expected to look after the appointments cannot agree as to who should be selected and are in a state of revolt and dissension. Consequently appointments that should have been made twelve months ago are held up by tbe President, who is waiting for the warring factions to get together. In my judgment, it would be for the interest of the ser vice and of the country for the Presi dent to adopt drastic measures and ignore all factions and play policies upon his own account and make the selections himself. It would be not only the proper thing to do but good politics.

Capt. Connolly, a grizzly old naval veteran who was the pilot on duty aboard the Monitor during her memorable engagement with the Merrimac, was a conspicuous figure in army and navy circles during the week. Capt. Connelly is now 74 years old, yet hale and hearty and walks erectly and with an elasticity of step that is for a man of his age wonderful to witness He received conspicuous attention while here.

Charlie Landis' speech upon tbe occasion of the anniversary of the birth of Lincoln, delivered at Boston under the auspices of the Middlesex Club, was the feature of that occasion, a lengthy synopsis of which is published in this morning's issue of the Washington Past. He paid his respects to the calamity howlers and other political disturbers of the peace in a masterly manner and was cheered to the cho.

future, if they are successful. The Democratic party has nothing to gain by such a course, and those local poli-

propose to trade a Con-

nomination for a few coun-

ty officers will do the Democratic cause a great injustice. In the name of common decency and pure politics the 1 biles would like to ask a few direct questions: Has J. B. Cheadle any politics.' If so, will any friend or supporter of him state w-hether he ia a Democrat, Republican or Populist? Would he cast a vote to briug about I any reform that a Democrat could not do just as well? Should Mr. Cheadle! be elected to Congre^ and W. J. Bryan be elected President, where would Mr. Cheadle throw his patronage? Would he give it to sore-toed Republicanslike himself? In the opinion of the Times such a nomination would add nothing to the Democratic party. As the struggle this fall will be the oreliminary steps for the great contest of 1900, the party could not strengthen itself by electing Mr. Cheadle to Congress this fall. Besides there are other potent reasons why Mr. Cheadle should not be nominated. The people—especially Democrats—are tired of voting for old broken down Republican politicians who have left their party because they have been turned down and kicked out for always wanting office. Another thing which would naturally disgust Democrats is that at the district meeting recently held at Frankfort—within a stone's throw of Cheadle's office—he did not have time to attend this meeting. He was evidently too cowardly lest he might injure himself with some Republican mugwumps because he attended a Democratic meeting. The Times prefers to support a Democrat this year for Congress, and it voices the sentiment of a large majority of the Democratic voters of the county if not the district in making this declaration. It would be the height of folly for a Democratic convention to nominate a Republican for Congress, when there are so many able, deserving Democrats who want that nomination this year. The coming Democratic Congressional convention should be a loyal party gathering and not a junketing committee to barter away a nomination which belongs to the people, 1 or a few local nominations in some of the counties of the district. The '1'uncs and the gallant Democracy of Tipton county will not be a party to such methods during this and future campaigns. The Times and the Democracy of Tipton county has no objection to the silver men getting together, but it is asking too much for the Democrats to support a Republican. Better take a Democrat, or a man who has formerly been a Democrat, if there must be fusion."

ISouitd In Human Skin.

From the Pittsburg Dispntch: In Camille Flammarion's library is a volume of the famous astronomer's works which bears the unique title "Souvenir d'Une Morte." It is unique because the title is wholly incompatible with the contents of the book, which is mainly devoted to scientific matters. However, when one hears the story that is told of this little volume it does not appear so stra.nge after all, though interest in it grows all the greater. It is said that Mr. Flammarion, meeting a beautiful lady at a reception one evening, openly expressed his admiration for her really lovely shoulders. So impressed was the lady that when Bhe died her will directed that enough skin be taken from that part of her person to bind the next work of the distinguished scientist. This was done, and the book referred to is the result.
