WRECK PROBE SHIFTS TODAY Investigation Os Fortville Traction Crash Goes To Indianapolis Irullaiuiiiolln, Kelt, (i—The luvmttlgu tlon of the Fortville Interurban wreck shifted to Indianapolis today. Coroner Helbert of Madison county expected tv adjourn the hearing ul \nderron and come here to question a number of the wreck injured who lire still in the Deaconess hospital and unable to go to Anderson to ten tify. Helliert Is particularly anxious to get the statement of some of the in jured regarding the time at which members of the crews jumped to save their lives. The investigation stank a snag yesterday when Roland Inynn and Sidney Sawyer, motorman and conductor of the eastiiouml car, refus ed to testify before tlie coroner. They refused on the ground that they were defendants, and that tlTcy could not be compelled to make state tuents which mißht incriminate them. Officials of the Union Traction com i pany denied they had advised the two j men not to testify. I One reason for the rapid spread of ; the flames after the two cars tele- ! rcoped was jevealed when It became ; known that the eastbound car carried a number of movie films in the hug I gage compartiient. j Thy films caught fire immediately j from coals from the overturned heatI er. — There appears to he some evidence that tin- body identified yesterday as that of Sherman Fay. a Fort Wayne salesman, may he that of I).

INTERMEDIATE *Nb UEMOK TOPIC —Why Isrsel Kslled st Ktdeah YOUNU PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Crlete at Kadtsh. I. The Spita Sent Out (Nuui. 13: 17-20). Less (hull two yeura had passed since the Israelites were delivered from their Egyptian huiidiige. They were now ut Kadesh-harnea, within sight of the promised land. Muses urged tbpm to go In and take immediate possession (Deut. 1:21), but they fulled because of their unbelief (Heh. 8:1»). The record in Deuteronomy 1:10-25 shows that God did not take the initiative in sending out the but tliat request was made by the people.' Represent atlve men, a ruler from each tribe, were secured. There was a tlirvdWold purpose in sending out the spies: 1. To see whether the land was as God bad told them (v. 18). 2. To see whether the people who dwelt there were strong or weak, few or many (v. )3). 3. To see whether the cities were tuaild up of strongholds or tents (v. 19). 11. The Commission Executed (Nurn. 13:21-25). They entered the land from the south und traversed it to Us northern limit. They spent 4*> days in tills investigating exploration. On their return from the north, they gathered some specimens of the of the land. Two of them, perhaps Caleb und Joshua, bore a cluster of grapes upon u staff between them as a witness that God hud spoken the truth about the laud. 111. The Spies Rendered a Report (Xum. 18:28-3:4). On their return this committee of explorers rendered a report to the whole congregation. It was not unanimous. 1. The Majority lteport (vv. 2(V2H). tl) A land flowing with milk and honey (v. 27). As a proof thereof, they exhibited the fruit. (2) The people who live there arc strong (v. 28). (3) The people live in walled cities tv. 28). (4) The land is inhabited with giants (v. 28; <f. v. 33). They saw themselves as grssxhoppers. Furthermore. they saw the people sn distributed. Hie Amalekitos in the south, the Hittltes, Jebusites and the Amorite* in tiie mountains, and the Canaanites along the sea, that it was impossible to take them. 2. The Minority Report (vv. 30-83). In part this report agree* with the iirst. It does not ignore the difth'ultles nor dispute tlie facts. U denies the conclusion* of th» majority. They did not minimise the task before them, but asserted that with God's help they were well able to take possession of the land, nnd urged immediate get ion. The ten hud their eyes on the •liitt<'i*ltiee. hut Caleb and Joshua flxed their eyes upon God. Caleb lived to see bis suggestions made real. IV. The Rebellion es the People (Xum. 14 1-10). Tills rebellion began by crying, which show* that they were cowards. Having left God out of the question, they now weep and howl. t. Moroni ring (vv. t-8). This weep ing »n<l howling was turned Into murmuring against Moses and Aaron. I Though too weak and cowardly to take their enemies in the power of Hotl, they could swell their leaders. They even wished that they hid died In Kgypt. 2. Priposllltm to Organise to Return to Kgypt (vv. 8. <). They proposed to select a captain at their I leader Hod took them st their word , - aent them hack to wander iu the wilderness for 38 years, during which . time they alt died except Joshua an I ’Caleb. 3.
