'J'iie S/nr /‘rtsx jiersists in telling the people that there is not a lac-

bill now in operation on iron and steel are for the most part protec live. On the other hand the duties on woolens were made to suit the foreigner. They are neither protective nor do they yield revenue. The foreigner is thus getting in his deadly work and is killing the wool industry. The woolen mills of the United States are closing but the woolen mills of England are running night and day to fill ordets trom this country. While prices on clothing are lower than in 1892, there is not ro much clothing sold for the reason that the people who work for wages are not so fully employed nor so well paid. The Star Press is not expected to under stand this, but the people do as is attested by the fact that their representatives in Indiana, the thirteen congressmen, are all republicans. TWO SHOTS. One at Hi* Wife ami a Second through Hit* Own Brain. Danville Republican A man who is believed to be William J. Bell, formerly connected with this paper, shot bis wife and fatally shot himself in Chicago, Monday. The shooting occurred at 7 o’clock at the home of his wife, who rooms on the third floor at Itid Lincoln avenue. The bullet which struck .Mrs. Bell glanced trom a rib, passed around her body and came out at her back, but she may recover. Mrs. Bell left her husband a year ago, because of his drinking habits and his failure to properly support his family. He went to live at «2:t West Van Buren street, but about seven months ago moved to the boarding bouse of J. Franz, 13C Lincoln avenue to be near his wife. A pathetic feature of the atFair is the fact-thatthe couple had two children, one aged four years and the other five years. Mrs. Bell had also a fourteen-year-old boy, John E. Argo, by a first husband. This boy, who bad been working in a neighboring paint shop, was laid off Sunday. Bell repeatedly begged his wife to live with him. out she persistently refused and earned her living by dressmaking. Six months ago be made an attempt to shoot her and was sent to Bridewell for three months. Bell was thirty-seven years old. Bell formerly worked in Greencastle and had relatives here and at Cioverdale.

Between the Greencastle Democrat and the Rockville Tribune. All ever a Tailless, Unfortunate Rooster. The fight between the Rockville Tribune and the Greencastle Democrat continues to increase. They are fighting over how each shall construe democracy, and their constructions are wonderful to behold. It all grew out of the Democrat printing a roos’er, after the Indi anapolis election, said rooster hav ing about two thirds of its tail gone. The Banner Times in its issue immediately following the last general election printed the same rooster and spoke of it us being all of ttie rooster that got through the republican fence in Putnam county. The gate closed on the sluggish bird it will he re inembered and got about all the tail feathers the rooster possessed last year. We want to how low and commend the Democrat for its honesty in displaying the bird just as it was shorn of its beauty by the republicans of Putnam. The Trib vne may rave and tear its aesthetic hair but the Democrat did no more than its duty in showing up th< bird just as it is We trust our democratic contemporaries will have all the fun they can now, for after the next whirl the bird will not appear as it w’ll not get through the fence at all. In order that the public may keep the noble creature in eight and mind we have con eluded to give that rooster the lull benefit of the large circulation of the Banner Times. Here he is just as he appeared in the Democrat of Oct. 1(5 and just as the republicans trimmed his feathers:

DR. JOHN'S LECTURE. A Magniftrent Audience Heart a I.ogicAk, Deep and Powerful ArKiiui«. l it. The large audience that assem bled in Meharry hall last evening was a high compliment to the distinguished speaker. Dr. John was greeted t»y a crowd that filled the hall in both lower floor and gallery. It was a magnificent gathering hi d would have been an inspiration to any speaker, but to Dr. John it was more than an inspiration. It was a tribute to bis popular standing here at home and to the high re gard in which he is held by bis fellow townsmen. The DePauw yell was given with a will when he appeared, and upon his approach to the front of the platform he was greeted with rounds of apolause. !>r. Gohin spoke feelingly of !)r. Jehu and said he was pr ud to stale that one of Greene.astle’s ciiizens had taken upthe battle against the insidious and elequent IngerBoll. Hr. John’s lecture was one of deep meaning and sound reason intermingled with profound seien tific research. He used great eloquence in clinching his arguments in favor r.f God being the creator. Dr. John in his preliminary remarks did hot denounce .Mr. Irigeisoll but stated he merely wished to rake issue with ids statements. He said he had written to Mr. In g'Tsoll and had asked him if he had misrepresented him in aov wav and had received a ver/courteous reply in which Mr. Ingers<di stated l hat he had not. Mr. Itigor-ol! ol.ja-ls. ^ni.l Hr. John, to the ulleg il author of the Bih.e on the ground that like the men who made him, he is ignorant, enm!, savatre, unjust. immoral. ir.oo.Mbte unfaithful, and is opposed to art, science, education. progress and liberty. He obj'els to the Christian system on the broad ground that it is unscientific. The speaker considered the objection under two general heads—first, being the moral objections against God’s character, and the s >eond against His revelation. Referring to IngerSoll’g deification of nature, the speaker showed that nature is savage for it gives no quarter; that it is cruel, -for it leaves man and beast to writhe in untold torture from fire, famine, pestilence and flood ; that it is unjust, for tin* innocent suffer with the guilty; that it is partial, for it help: the strong and oporesses the weak ; that it is unfaithful, for it makes promises that if dot s not keep; that it is immortal, for by the law ol the survival of the fitte-t. the weak becomes the slaves of the strong. Thus, continued, Dr. John, if the apparent moral obliquity ot the God of nature is reconcilable with the moral rectitude which men demand that he must possess, then all similar moral objections to 'he God of the Bible must disappear. This does not prove the God of the Bible to he a reality, but that he is equally possible with the God of nature, and is that without moral obliquity If nature can have a God whose innidte perfection is not Irreconcilable with its stern realities, the same is true of the Bible. But nature is a fad, and if it have a governor, his character must he in harmony with his government. Dr. John treated at length of Ingersoll's charge of cruelty against God in

Weak, Tired, Nervous “ I was feeling as miserable as any one eoald teel, tired ell the time, many tlmee unable to go out on the street even after I htd started. If I went up one fliRhtof stairs I felt as though I should fall. I had palpitation of the heart and Buffered greatly with catarrh of the head and throat. I finally decided to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and soon felt better. I used the tnlrd bottle and I then felt like a different person. I hope others in iff health will do as I did. If you take Hood’s Sarsaparilla and use it faithfully I am sure you will be benefited. 1 have also found Hood’s Pills to be of great benefit and I highly recommend them.” Miss Jbwib Fremont, Saddle River, N.

wanted ut once and lie done W'tli it?” “Simply because lie could not,” said Dr. John. “God can make sticks and stone* the way lie wants them and so they will remain, but lie cannot make two and two five, for tiien it would no longer be two and two. He cannot make parallel lines meet for they would no longer be parallel. Ho cannot make men virtuous against their wills for

they would no longer be men.” Speaking of the intellectual objec-

tions of Ingersoii against the God of the Bible and of Ingersoll’s assertion that lie hates hell, Dr. John said that hate of hell cannot close its existence. “Hell," he said, “is already here. Men do not need to wait for the hereafter to encounter the flame. The majority of mankind are already in the fire. There is no hell, here or hereafter, other than that whose flames are kindled by the laws of sowing and reaping. Hell has already come into the universe because sin lias come and it will stay as long as

sin endures. The Gordian knot which we are to untie is the present hell rather than the future one. Bin and suffering are already here and as long as sin remains suffering must remain. The Christian is under no more obligation to account for the present hell than is the agnostic; for, God or no God. the world is already In its tlame, and whoever account-, for the hell on earth will equally account for the hell to come, for they are equally alike.” Dr. John reasoned that if it can bo clearly shown that Moses made a mistake in his brief history of the origin of the universe, then he was not inspired by an omniscient God. But if it shall

appear that his account, as far as understood, agrees witli the facts as far as

understood, this alone will be over-

whelming proof that lie was superiiat-

urally inspired. The Doctor treated

with the lateff acquisitions of science |

and drew from the constellation Orion a story of another world forming, as the

telescope shows, just a« the solar system was formed. He dealth with ab-

truse propositions, which he clothed in familiar language, but at considerable

length, to give a scientific foundation to his argument. Space does not permit

vice president ; Mrs. Hamrick, second vice president; J E. Newhouse, secretary; D tra Burton, assistant secretary; A. O. Lockridge, superintendent of home class work; I. Vermilion, treasurer. It was resolved that the matter of county organization be referred to a committee consisting of the county and township presidents with the pastors of the county to consider what if any changes should be made to enhance the work ana that said committee meet within sixty days. A vote of thanks was extended to State Superintendent Meigs and to State Secretary Weaver; also a voU of thanks to Prof. Ogg and the other county officers of the association. The musicians of the Christian church were also thanked. Rev. W. K. Weaver was secretary of the coot vention to whose notes we are indebted for this report. Owing to its length this paper cannot print as requested the resolutions of the convention as adopted. The resolutions speak very favorably of the “Home Class Department” and resolutes in favor of a systematic house tq house canvass of the entire county in concerted action on
