CLOSE YEAR'S WORK AT THE li. B. CHURCH

CONFERENCE WILL BE HELD AT UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS AUG. 30 REV. ROBBINGS WILL

HAVE GOOD REPORT.

RECOMMEND STATION HERE

Have Had Sixty Additions to Church —To Build At Amity and OneHalf of Money Subscribed—Rev.

Bobbins May Be Returned Here— Walter Ware is Lay Delegate.

With Sunday night's service at the United Brethren church on Swope street, the work of the present conference year was closed at this point and the pastor for two years, Rev. H. W. Robbins, will have a splendid report to make to his conference, which convenes at University Heights on Wednesday, August 30th.

During the year just ended there have been sixty members added to the Greenfield church, and several at the other two points of the circuit, Amity and Otterbein. In addition to this there have been improvements made on the church here and considerable has been paid on the church debt.

At Amity the plans have been adopted for a splendid new church to be built of brick, and one-half of the money has been subscribed to pay for the building of this church.

It is probable that the Greenfield U. B. church will be made a station at this conference, as the recommendation will be made by the Bishop, G. M. Mathews, of Chicago, who will preside at the conference.

While the delegate from this church, Walter Ware, goes to the conference uninstructed, as is customary in this church, it is very probable that the present pastor, Rev. Robbins, wi 11 be returned, if he cares to accept the appointment. There is general satisfaction expressed by the membership with his two years' work, and people outside •of the church are very anxious that he be returned for another year to be a citizen of Greenfield, and a co-worker with the other pastors.

CANE CROP SHORT,

Smaller Acreage and Not Doing Well—Barnard Plant Ready to Begin at Right Time.

Elwood Barnard, proprietor of the Barnard Sorghum Factory, north of Eden, was in the city today on business. Mr. Barnard says the sorghum supply will be short this year for two reasons. In the early spring the wet weather prevented many farmers from planting as much cane as they otherwise would have planted. The extremely dry weather later hindered the growth and development of the cane, and for these two reasons the sorghum supply will be reduced.

Mr. Barnard has his factory ready to begin work when the cane is ripe, probably ths middle or last of September.

Fightr—

Score Was 8 to 5.

The base ball game at Dewey's Park Sunday afternoon was one of the best and hardest fought games played in Greenfield in years. The Indianapolis Naval team, which has played some of the very best teams in the state, defeated the Gray boys' team with a score of 8 to 5, after a hard fight.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith have always lived happily and Smith feared his friends would not understand his explanation. He told of having read the day before about a horse biting a blacksmith while the animal was being shod, and the news item had seemed to impress him deeply.
