In Saturday's Exprasa was republished, from the Sullivan Union, an account of the discovery of a cave near Merora by some of the professors ot Merom college. The description of the cave, the skeletons found therein and the remarkable beauty of the cavernB, was graphic in the extreme and yet no line of the narrative would arouse the slightest suspicion of the genuineness of the report, The editor of the Union has since made public the fact that he has received a letter from the professor whose name was attached to the article, saying the whole thine waa a forgery and no such cave had been discovered. The supposition is that one of the students of the college wrote the account. After he leaves college he will have no difficulty in securing a position on a sensational newspaper.

The delegates to the county, congressional and state Republican conventions were selected in this county, yesterday, with the exception of those from Linton township, where the Republicans decided to postpone their selections until next Saturday. The interest and the contest, whatever contest there was, arose in the choice of delegates to the congressional convention, the issue being Peirce and antiPeirce. At this writing all of the wards and townships except three townships —Nevins, Riley and Piereon—have been heard from, and the anti-Peirce faction has decidedly carried the day. According to the best information, the delegates from the three townships named will be anti-Peirce. In the Fourth Ward in this city an opposition arose to the anti-Peirce leaders whose origin had nothing at all to do with the contest between Peirce and his opponents in this county. By means that are not defended by anyone this opposition chose two Peirce delegates. Considering all things the Republicans in this county carried every ward and township for delegates who would not vote for the nomination of Mr. Peirce.

The various church councils that have been in annual session during the past two weeks have discussed many of the great moral questions now particularly before the country. The general conference of the Methodist church and the general assembly of the Presbyterian church had before them the question of Sunday newspapers. The New York Sun says: •'Many speeches in support of se resolutions were made in each lint we find no reports of the. other side and ^^jobably few Methodists of this city, whether ^en, who do not buy ay editions of the

mm

newspaper*. On no other day of tha seven ia the demand (or newtpapwm «o great as on Sunday, and a largt part ot it cornea from the moat intelligent and most conservative members ot the community. The minister in the pal pit and the congregation In the pews have all read the news of the motnlng.

The clergy especially are very care* ful readers of the Sunday newspapers, and we doubt if there was one among the New York delegates to these con •entions who was not himself guilty of the practice he assisted in condemning. Nor is it at all unlikely that the demand for Sunday newspapers among Methodists and Presbyterians generally will in the least diminish because of the passage of the reaolutions, which nobody seems to have dared to oppose.

When the New York delegates return they vull continue to read their Sunday newspapers the same as before. They are intelligent men, and they cannot gf along without them. They must know what happened on Saturday. They ci'inot afford to lose the run of a nncle day* sides, the Sunday etliiion may be the best of the week and contain most food for a thoughtful man.

Why, then, did not thoso dt-legates raise their voices against the resolutions They knew that a good Sunday newspaper was not deserving of con demnation, that it supplied a want they themselves felt, and that its perusal gave useful.occupation to the people on the day of rest.

Tbey will not regulate their own conduct in tccordance with these resolutions, nor will they expect their flocks to pay them any heed, and yet they allowed them to pass unopposed.

Their wholesale condemnation of Sunday, newspapers will only tend to weaken the respect in which the general conference and general assembly are held among intelligent men, both inside and outside of the religious communions they represent."

We stand apart, hand-clasped And soul-serene. And watch the world go past,

Like a dull stream.

And know that few are given, Such Joy as ours Few stand so olose to Heaven,

Through all life's hours.

Our friendship will not falter, At night or noon Our souls kneel at one altar,

And there commune. FAHHIE BROWN.

COL. FULLENL0VE DEAD.

Death of the Sheriff of Floyd County, Who Heroically Fought the Seven-ty-Five Lynchers That Hanged the Reno Boys.

Courier-Journal yesterday. Col. James J. Fullenlove died last night at his home in New Albany, after a brief illness. The deceased was one of the most prominent men in Floyd county and a leader in the Democratic party. His first appearance in politics was in 1865, when be was elected sheriff of Floyd county. He served in that capacity for two terms, and it waa while holding the office of sheriff of Floyd county that the most noteworthy event in his history cccurred—the defense of the county jail against an armed band of determined lynchers, when he himself was shot and badly wounded. The lynchers wereafter the Reno brothers, the famous robbers, and their summary execution by the men whom Sheriff Fullenlove resisted is one of the most dramatic, incidents in the history of crimes in Indiana.

In 1868 a band of men committed many robberies of express trains in Indiana and Ohio, and the Reno brothers were supposed to be the Iqpders of the marauding gang. The Adams and the American express companies each suffered severe losses, and, it was supposed, did much to instigate the lynching of the robbers, who were from time to time captured. Seven men had already been hung by masked men for one of the worst of these robberies, known as the Marshfield outrage, when Simon, Frank and William Reno and Charles Anderson were captured and placed in jail in New Albany, the jail in Scott county, where the robbery occurred, being considered unsafe. Frank Reno and Anderson were extradited on the charge of complicity in the robbery, the United States government, through its then secretary of state, pledging itself that the men should have a lair trial.

On the morning of December 12, 1868, these four men were in jail. This was a two-stoiy-and-basement double brick building, the front being used as a residence by the sheriff and as an office. The front was separated from the jail proper by a hall that ran across the building. The entrance to the jail was through a large, heavily grated door that led from this hall into a large room around which the iron cells were arranged in double tiers. Outside of the top teir of cells ran an iron walk, guarded by a heavy iron railing. On the night in question no fear was entertained for the safety of the prisoners, and only two guards were on duty at the jail. Luther Whitten was on duty in the office and Thos. Mathews was the guard within the jail proper. Between 3 and 4 o'clock a. m. Whitten heard a noise in the court yard and opening the office door was confronted by between seventy-five and one hundred men, all of them wearing hideous masks of red cloth and many of them carrying dark lanterns. The leaders vuietly informed Whitten that he must raise no outcry on penalty of death. Nevertheless he tried to do so, but was seized, thrown down and assured of death if he made a noise. Enough noise had been made" already, however, to awaken Sheriff Fullenlove, who came into the office from a room across a hall, wearing only his night clothes. The office was now full of men, with pistols cocked and ready to fire. In one instant the sheriff took in the situation dashing through the crowd he leaped down a stairway, evidently intending to escape by means of the basement. As he disappeared down the 6tairs the crowd gathered around the top of the flight and an order was given to "shoot down the Btairway." It was too late the man had gotten out of range. When in the basement the sheriff ran to a window and raised it quickly, hoping to get into the yard. But the house was completely Burrounded, and a man stood at every window and door, ready to shoot. As the sheriff appeared at the window a voice cried: "There be is. Shoot him! Shoot him!" A single shot rang out, and Fullenlove's right arm dropped helpless by his side. He cried oat for help and tried to slarm the towB, but instantly he was struck over the head with a heavy instrument and fell to the floor. He was overpowered and taken to the jail hall. The mob gathered about him and many pistolB were pointed at his body as the keys were demanded. He refused to tell where they were, saying he would rather die than tell. A guard was left over him, and the mob ran into Mrs. Fullenlove's room to hunt for the

3.

keys. Her brave husbaod called out to her to let the men kill b«r before she told where the keys were. The worn was Marched, and finally the kots found in a washstand drawer. The door leading to the corridor of the jail was quietly opened, but it was mors difficult matter to open the eel doers. Each cell had a key diflerent from that of any other cell, and three cwlls had to be opened. Time was precious, BO the mob returned to Fullenlove and sgain threatened to kill him If ho did not open the cells. Ho refused to aid the lynchers In any way, but Mrs. Fullen'ove, fearing for the life of her husband, she eagerly explained that the cells were numbered, and that the keys bore corresponding mitntiers. It was short work after that. The men were taken out one at a time and hanged to the railing that ran Outside the upper cells. The men made no resistance, except in one case, and were allowed no time lor explanation and no time for prayers. The man who resisted was knocked almost senseless and then hanged.

VVhilo this was going on tho sheriff was kept guarded, and no aid was given him in his wounded condition even his wife was not allowed to go to bis assistance. As the lynchers wero leaving the jail some of them proponed to hanfe Fullenlove, but their leaders disuaded taetn. The mob locked the jail up, and locked up the sheriff and other officers in it, except that they took with them one of the two county commissioners who had been spending the night in the jail. When they reached the depot they boarded the train on which they hid entered the city and returned in the direction of Jeflersonville, whence they had come. They left the county commissioners to alarm the town.

Mr. Fullenlove was afterward elected auditor of the county, and served eight years, declining a re-election. He then went into the hotel business and carried on tbe Central hotel until two years ago, when he was elected to represent the counties of Floyd and Washington in the state senate. Ha was exceedingly popular, and was a valuable man in the community. He leaves a wife and five children, three of whom are married. He was about fifty years old when he died.

PASTOR AND PEOPLE.

Christian Giving Forms the Subject of the Sunday School Lesson To-day.

THE SUNDAY SOHOOLi.

Lesson for May 25—Subject: "Christian Giving-"—I. Cor. ix. 1-15. Under the Old Testament dispensation tbe amount which each Jew was to contribute to the Temple service was fixed by statute, and there was no question of choice about it. He paid this tax as men of this country pay their taxes to tbe general and municipal governments. A tenth of all produce, including flocks and cattle, was to be given to the Levites who had charge of the Temple of tbis tithe a tenth was to be given by them to the priesthood as their share a second tithe was bestowed in religious feasts and charity in the Temple and every third year this second tithe waB to be employed in charity at home. This tax of onetenth of a man's produce was not levied on his wealth, nor on all his income, but only on the produce of the fields. While* it may not have been just, we cannot fail to see that there was something beautiful in this idea of giving. They considered all the earth as belonging to the Great Master and the giver of all. The land could belong to no one but God, and in their tithes to the church they paid their annual rental for its use. A man might make money in other ways and accumulate wealth, but this was not subject to the same taxation. They consider a man's ability his own, but the land which he tilled and on which his herds and flocks fed was God's, The tax paid for the church services, and also the major part of the educational and judicial expenses of the state, since the Levites were the official teachers, and the principal courts were, even to a late day, connected with and supported out of the Temple treasury. It might not be just to the Jewish church to say that this was a written law, that every Jew should give one-tenth of bis possessions. It was rather an unwutten law, which everybody understood and no one thought of disregarding. It was, as are always these unwritten la»vs, obeyed more implicitly than those which are enforced by state officers. Tbev were directed to give rather than commanded, and the payment was commended, not compelled.

But even this system of giving to the church passed away with the old dispensation, and the only place where it may now be found is in the Mormon church, where the tithe giving is kept up to this day. That is one secret of the wealth and power of this church. But this manner of giving is not the spirit of the New Testament. There is no law which levies a tax upon th" church oi God. The giving there must be perfectly free, and it partakes of the larger liberty that is found in all Christ's teachings. The church has nothing to do with compulsion. Every man is free to come into it or stay without to help on the work of the Lord or leave it alone. The apostles never levied a tax per capita on the membership of any church. They always appealed to the generosity of the Christian. Paul urged upon them the duty of giving to the work of the Lord, and pointed out His liberality to them, out he made them understand that nothing but cheerful giving was wanted or would be accepted. That has been the spirit of the Christian church since, and is now. And as we take the larger view of our liberty, so should we also take the larger view of our responsibilty to God. We are not bound by statute to give onetenth of the produce of the soil which is His, but we are bound by the law of love to render unto the Father all that is His— our very selves, all we have and are— our ability, our talents, our energy, as well as the goods that, we possess. All are ours because we are His. We do not have to make a calculation or figure up how much the statute or the custom says we shall give, but we should look at the question of duty and determine what is the need for God's work,how much weBhould spend in our own houses. It is not a question for the church, the state or any corporation, organization or society to settle, but individually for ourselves. Each man is his own judge in this matter, and he will hold himself personally responsible to-tbe owner and giver of all good gifts. This was what Paul urged upon the people at Corinth.
