ItrUI at the Cullegti Avenue M. E. Church on Sunday Evening. There was a fair-sized audience in College Avenue chureh last evening that listened attentively to four verj T earnest and pointed talks on temperance, with especial reference to the best method for enforcing the new temperance laws adopted by the late legislature, namely, the Nicholson and Moore bills. Dr. J. II. Hollingsworth opened the program by stating the object of the special service and giving some statistics. He said there were twelve saloons in Putnam county which did a business which would aggregate $72,000 per year. He then spoke of how that amount would help other business if thrown into other channels and made several comparisons, showing that the amount spent for liquor in the county was larger than the expenses of DePauw university for a year. Rev. Hollingsworth said he was saving himself for a special effort on the work later on and would intro duee the other speakers. Before this, however, he read a list of liq uor licences that would expire in December and at other times and showed that the tiretone that would be remonstrated against would be upon December 3 next. He urged action in the line of remonstrance. Rev. H. M. Middleton set out the purpose of the Nicholson and Moore laws in a strong speech of a half hour. He reviewed the important features and dwelled on the local option or remonstrance lea ture. He showed that the laws were well built, and urged united action. Mr. Middleton especially complimented the feature of the Moore law that regulates the location ol saloons to certain districts. Rev. D. M Wood followed in a short hut deeply earnest talk on the need of enforcement of those laws in our city. Mr. Wood thought Greencastle was the point in which Greencastle people should first work for the suppression of the saloon. He said the eyes of the state were upon Greencastle be cause of the many students sent here and thought this the place to work. He was decidedly of the opinion that there were now enough laws on the statute hooks of the state to enable the temperance peo pie to abolish every saloon in the county if they hut united their efforts and went to work. Rev. Wood especially complimonted City ! Attorney Moore for his bill and the | city council lor passing the billiard l and pool ordinance which he said lie had read in the Banner Times. He thought the billiard law one of great value. Dr. II. A. Gobin [spoke on what steps should be takI eu at the jiresent time by our citi- ! zens relative to he enforcement of jiliese laws. Dr. Gobin spoke earn estly in favor of action by remonstrance. He said that other cities had abolished saloons and that others were succeeding in the work. He strongly denounced the merchant who would sign his name to a petition and then for business reasons withdraw the same. He spoke of such as cowards. The doctor gave instances of ruin brought on by drink, and was heartily in favor of instituting the temperance movement. At the close of Dr. Gobin’s remarks a vote of thanks taken by a rising vote, was given the city council and City Attorney Moore for the billiard ordinance and the Moore bill respectively. Upon motion the temperance committee of the church was appointed a special committee to organize and take such steps necessary to cover the town in the work whicli will probably be done under the name of a Good Citizens League. The remonstrating sentiment was strong and a le$t will be made in the first and third wards at the next session of the board of com-
missioners.

Wedne»day at Conference.
At the session of the northwest Indiana conference at Valparaiso on Wednesday Elder D. M. Wood will read the following report of the district for the past year: I. THE PERSONNEL OK THE DISTRICT. Greencastle district will report about ten thousand meintters. One fourth of tliis number however are only occasional attendants upon tho church services and are not eontributors “to the support of the g<>s|u“l and the various benevolent enterprises of the church.” We have at work in the district thirtyfour pastors, six superanoates and two college professors who are connected with the conference. Two members of the conference left without appointment to attend school who pari ot the year have given ettleient service as assistant pastors. Several local preachers have in addition to these been abundant in labors. Rev. Jacob Kohm and Rev. Zimri Maris are local elders and deserving of special mention. Tl.ey have been especially helpful in the sacramental services. Itro. It ohm has preached over one hundred times and baptized one hundred persons. We have had no deaths in the families of any of the ministers, ami no hindrance from work on account of sickness.
