Church Filled From Pulpit to Gal
lery to Hear About the Great
Central Figure of all
Ages.
MUSIC BY GREEN
FIELD ORCHESTRA
"Life and Personality of Jesus Christ"
Theme For One of Greatest Lec
tures Ever Heard Here.
The Bradley M. E. church was filled from pulpit to gallery Sunday afternoon by men and women to hear exgovernor J. Frank Hanly deliver his great lecture, "The Personality of Jesus Christ." While the immense crowd was gathering, not only from the homes of the city, but from the surrounding country for several miles each way, the Sunday school orchestra rendered a number of splendid selections that were highly appreciated.
The Rev. Joseph Williamson gave the invocation and "My Country 'Tis of Thee" was sung by the audience as the opening song.
Ex-Governor, J. Frank Hanly was introduced by Rev. Leslie J. Naftzger and as is his custom, plunged at once into his subject, which was appropriate and fitting to the day and occasion. Mr. Hanly's lecture dealt with the subject, simply from a human standpoint, leaving out all the miraculous things which proved Jesus Christ divine as well as human.
His word picture of the humble parentage, environment and associations of the great central figure of all ages, was vMd, and added even greater weight to his achievements because of his personality, strength of character and the fixed purpose of his life. His work as the greatest teacher, organizer, poet, musician, artist, sculptor, architect and leader of men were discussed in a way that held the entire attention of the vast audience for more than an hour and gave the hearers a broader and deeper knowledge of the great teacher than they ever had before and caused them to have a greater respect for his achievements as a man with a great purpose and strength of character to achieve that purpose. It was without doubt the greatest and most interesting lecture of the season here and those who heard it were benefitted in many ways and the appreciation of the people was expressed in word and action.
This was the last of a series of mass meetings giyen under the auspices of the men's bible classes of the city.
KNIGHTSTOWN IS III THE DOUBTFUL UST
Editor W. K. Deem Declares "Wets"
and "Drys" Are Neck and Neck
—Many Wet Towns Near.
W. K. Deem, editor of the Knightstown Banner, said while in New Castle Friday that the fight in his town between the "drys" and "wets" was running neck and neck, and it was hard for any one to tell how it was going, says the New Castle Times.
Editor Deem, himself, it is believed will vote dry, but he says that many of the business men of Knightstown who voted dry before are going to vote wet this time. Those who are going to flop on the question are of the opinion that Knightstown is compelled to do something to protect itself from the wet cities of Greenfield, New Castle and Rushville, all of them about the same distance away.
The Knightstown election will be held on Saturday, April 29.

RBI. PERRY POWELL PUBLISHESII BOOK
Former Pastor of Bradley M.E. Chnrch
Has Written Book for Boys—Man
ual for Order of Holy Grail.
The Rev. Perry Edwards Powell, formerly pastor of the Bradley M. E. church in this city for four years, who has been in Indianapolis conducting a campaign among the boys in the interest of the Holy Grail, an order of which he is the originator, has published a manual entitled"The Knights of the Holy Grail and the Boy Scouts." In the book the purpose and character of th* order, its ritual and methods _of procedure are set forth.
The purpose is to provide a solution of the "boy problem" and Mr. Powell believes the order of the knights does this. Its plan is similiar to that of the Boy Scouts and it includes many of the games, pastimes, schemes and occupations of the scouts, with some distinctive features of its own, among which are religious exercises at certain times. Organized Sunday school work is part of the Grail's undertaking, boys being divided into classes according to age. Every element of honest, upright manliness is encouraged by the system of combined work and pleasure in operation and the boy who becomes interested in the society, with his companions, has too much to think of and attract him to be easily led into mischief. The new order has received the approval of Bishop Fowler and others, including many educators of experience. The manual, which contains ail the forms and directions for organization, comes from the press of Jennings & Graham, Cincinnati.
A Reliable Medicine—Not a Narcotic. Mrs. F. Marti, St. Joe, Mich., says: "Our little boy contracted a severe bronchial trouble and as the doctor's medicine did not cure him, I gave him Foley's Honey and Tar Compound in which I have great faith. It cured the cough as well as the choking and gagging spells, and he got well in a short time. Foley's Honey and Tar Compound has many times saved us much trouble and we are never without it in the house." M. C. Quigley.

THE COUNTY CLERK EXPECTS NEW LAWS
Hancock County is Entitled to One
Hundred or More—Clerk Distrib
utes Them.
County Clerk Moses Wood is expecting the Hancock county consignment of the new laws, enacted by the recent legislature.
The laws are being distributed by the secretary of state and some county clerks have received and receipted for them. When copies of the laws have been received by all the county clerks, the governor will issue his proclamation putting all laws which did not have emergency clauses, into effect.
The number of copies of the new laws each county is entitled too, depends on the number of votes cast for secretary of state at tho last general election and Hancock county will be entitled to about one hundred and ten volumes.
While the acts are distributed without cost, the statute regulates to an extent to whom they shall go. First of all each attorney is entitled to a book then each county and township official gets one. Whatever books are left are for the general public.
The arrival of the acts is always an occasion of general interest and is usually marked by an excited seizure of the books by attorneys who have cases and clients who will in some measure be effected by the new laws.
The book contains 860 pages and is bound in light green cloth.
Safe Medicine for Children. Foley's Honey and Tar Compound is a safe and effective medicine for children as it does not contain opiates or harmful drugs. The genuine Foley's Honey and Tar Compound is in a yellow package. M. C. Quigley.

Curry Case Heard.
The suit for divorce, alimony and custody of their child by Sarah E. Robinson and cross complaint by the defendant John P. Robinson was on trial today in the circuit ccurt, and is proving quite interesting to those who are looking for sensational entertainment,
Both parties are young and are a nice looking couple who formerly lived at Maxwell and several from that town attended court as witness. Each accuses the other of infidelity in their complaint and each is making a hard fight to prove what they allege. A number of witnesses have testified for both parties. One character witness for Mrs. Robinson, from Indianapolis failed to appear and an attachment was issued for her.
The suit of Retta Curry for a divorce from Douglas Curry was heard and the plaintiff granted a divorce, custody of their two children, Lillian age 20 years, and Earl, age 16 years. The defendant was ordered to pay $1.50 a week for the support of Earl Curry for two years.
