BETHANY PARK ASSEMBLY. Bermans by Elder Isaac Errett and W. E. Hall —To-Day’s Programme. /Ipeeial to the Indianapolis Journal. Beth an v Park, Aug. 10.—The Sunday school lervices this morning were conducted by the pastor of the Park Christian Church in New Albany King Pendleton. By mismanagement of the railroad officials the train from Indianapolis, bringing G 47 persons, did not arrive for an hour after the advertised time, and so the time for beginning the mcrniLg service had to be correspondingly delayed. Isaac Errett, of Cincinnati, 0., preached the morning sermon, taking as a text the fourth verse of the fifty-fifth chapter of Isaiah: , Behold I have giver him for a witness to the peoples, a lender and a commander.” Ihe whole outlook of this prophecy is to the Gentile world. It is a revelation from God to ÜB. 1 hore has been an utter failure to solve the loftiest problems in relation to Christianity. The last effort, of human reason is that God is unknowable—a God that cannot be known. Not many years ago we knew as little about Africa as we know about heaven, hut Livingstone, Stanley and others have explored it and testified to what we knew little about before, Net the first offering to that land—long before the people there can learn the nam6 of Christ —the civilized world is sending to them intoxicating liquors, which will set their souls a fire of hell. How lovingly and tenderly the witness of God, spoken of in the text, dealt with the peoples of the world! If there ever was a class of men that Christ scorned it was the self righteous or respectable class—so called. Returned with pity to the most depraved of mankind if He eonld but find a penitent heart. There is a possibility for every soul that existeth in this wor’d. If we desire to be saved, and the cry is raised from an anxious conscience for mercy and salvation, God has a wonderful love and compassion for man. Man is the child of God. cherished by a Father's love. He has formed an estimate of man that is beyond all price. When you look at Jesus dying for man, you behold the payment of the most precious price in the power of heaven to give—heaven's most royal ransom. The blood of Jesus Christ has written the name of God on the face of every man—so marked as the precious ransom. But what has the witness referred to in the text told us about destiny? He tellte us, so far as those who believe Him are concerned, they never shall see death, for angels will take them to anew home, where they shall live in the presence of God in everlasting glory, When the tenderest ties are broken, there are angels wait ing to bear the loved ones away to everlasting bliss. Tis
“Sweet to rejoice in lively hope, That when my change shall come, Angels will hover round u,y bed, And waft my spirit home.” Whatever you live here you will realize hereafter; you are making here, on earth your heaven or hell in the ages to come. We have got to wake up to that reality. -We have been poisoned with the idea that God is too good to punish anybody. There is no hell any more in the pulpit; that kind of preaching is not popular these days; and there has come an iuiperception between right and wrong that is truly appalling. We have exceedingly false notions about the vast gulf between the good and the bad, and a place of condemnation for those who do not walk in righteousness and truth. God wants to save you. and you must be saved or be punished forever. The testimony of the witness comes to the heart and conscience of every man and woman, as it has gone through all the ages. For 1,800 years, wherever the testimony by this witness has been believed, the nations walk in the light of God. He is not only a witness, but a leader and a commander. Jesus Christ comes as a leaaer as well as a teacher. When you want to know where to go, just look for Jesus and follow him. Many Christians may prove to be bad, but if you keep your eye on the grand leader of the armies of God you may feel sure victory will be assured. There is nothing that enters into life He has not matte known to you. Obey this leader and witness, and all will ho well. In the afternoon the pastor of the First Christian Church in St. Louis (W. E. Hale), preached a sermon, taking for his text the words of the Psalmist: “The fool has said in his heart there is no God.” What the people most need is a conviction of the existence of the great God. What Christians most need to remember is that the omniscient eye is taking cognizance of our conduct —that God sees us always, and from Him there is no escape. God is unmade—God always was. All nature evidences the existence of the great God, who created all things, and without whom nothing was made. The laws of nature do nothing; it is God that makes the oak to grow, that sends the cloud flpet sailing through the upper sea; we should look up through nature to nature’s God, whose will originates the force that guides the stars. A belief in an omniscient God is the ballast in the ship that enables a soul to ride safely over the billows of this life. The peculiar trouble is that wo, surrounded with our fleshly .environment, don’t open the eye of faith ami see God. and let < iod lead us. We are governed by sense and sight, instead of being governed by faith. Let us riso above our en\ironment, and by faith lay hold on God in His majesty and glory. Believe in Him and trust in Him. Then followed the observance of the ordnance of the Lord’s Supper, Isaac Errett, of Ohio; J. Z. Taylor, of Missouri, and H. O. Breedon, of Indiana, presiding at the table. * To morrow—Monday—at 10 o’clock a. m , an address will be delivered by Rev. A. Marine, D. I)., pastor of the Indianapolis Central avenue Methodist Church. From 1:30 to 2:30 o'clock p. 11., three Armenians will give a free exhibition of the manners and customs of their native land In Oriental costumes. At J o’clock, an address will be delivered by Rev. Reuben Jefferies, D. 1)., pastor of the First Indianapolis Baptist Church.

St. Louis, Aug. 16. —The home club was badly defeated to-day by the Cincinnatis, in a dull and uninteresting game. McGinnis was hit very hard, and at times his support was miserable.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, MONDAY, AUGUST 17, 1885.
THE IRISH CAUSE. The Address of the National Committee of the Irish National League of America. Chicago, Aug. 16. —Following is the address formulated and adopted at the meeting of the national committee of the Irish National League of America: “In obedience to the suggestion of the chosen leader of the people of Ireland, the national committee of the Irish National League of America, assembled to designate the time and place for holding the next national convention of the League in the United States, have decided to postpone the date of meeting until January, 1886. It must be manifest to all members of the league, and to all friends of self-government in Ireland, that it would be impossible either for Mr. Parnell to attend a convention in this country-, or to send any of his able associates, pending a general election, which will probably occur next November. Hence the wisdom of his suggestion that the convention be postponed. Meantime, however, the league should inaugurate a period of activity not less earnest and energetic than that which provailed when Irelahd was threatened with another artificial famine, and when her leaders were imprisoned and her press silenced under a so-called liberal govern ment. “The party led by Parnell needs support. How well that support is deserved we need hardly tell the world. Assuredly we need not tell the men of Irish birth or descent, serving without compensation, without official power or patronage, among aliens who have persecuted and who have sought to degrade them. Being numerically less than one-twentieth of the body in which they serve, they have achieved a success unparalleled in the history of struggles for free government. By their ability, their unity, their discipline, their faith in the justice of their cause, and by their restless labors, they have forced not only their enemies, but the world to look upon their oppression, and to listen to the recitals of an outraged, plundered, misgoverned people. They have with matchless skill seized upon every opportunity to thrust before the world their cause. It is one which will bear the scrutiny of light. They 7 never allowed it to be hidden. They blockaded the legislation of the English Parliament; they objected to. postponed and defeated local legislation intended to foster and expedite English business interests, in retaliation for tho dull, brutal indifference which was shown to Irish interests. For the first time in English history it was impossible to extend the franchise privileges in England and Scotland without giving Ireland absolute equality- in the extension. While they have not been able to compel the government to disgorge the surplus of the unexpended fund raised to support the now disestablished church, they- have wrung from the champions of that colossal robbery the admission that it belongs to the people of Ireland, and have compelled the return of a portion of the stolen funds. They have not secured tho land of Ireland for the people of Ireland; but they have forced the enactment of legislation which, although inadequate in its effects, is so extraordinary in its terms and concessions as to amount to a confession of the enormity of the system which has so long ground down and impoverished the Irish people. They have not been able to get back Grattan’s parliament for Ireland, but they boldly announce that no lesser measure will be accepted by them. And, pending its restoration, though prohibited from governing Ireland, they- have been able todictate who must cease and who may assume the work of governing England. They have driven the party- of coercion, the party of judicial murderers, the party of eviction, the party which vainly sought to imprison ideas when it thrust men into dunpeons, the party- led by Gladstone—who wrote boastingly of the downfall ot the American Republic—into disgraceful retirement from Dublin Castle; and they- have shown that while Dublin Castle was the home of so-called English Liberalism and the seat of tyranny, its unnatur al vice and imported English bestiality, made it only worthy of a. site in ancient Sodom and Gomorrah, or in modern London. Their labors have been herculean. Their accomplishments, under most adverse circumstances, are almost miraculous. When they next appear in Parliament, their numbers will be increased from thirty to at least eighty. They will have more or less of only reliable English support—that which comes from sea from a number of English members who will owe their election to tho judicious exercise of the balance of power by- exiled Irish in England and Scotland. With that strength they will be able to throttle English legislation, and thus to compel the English to allow them to retire from an atmosphere polluted by- royal and aristocratic bestiality-, and to establish a free Parliament for the government of a free people in Ireland. “In tne accomplishment of this work they need ono more great effort on the part of their American auxiliaries. Wo appeal to every branch league to give renewed lite and determination to the work. We earnestly invite all who are not members to join the league, and we invite all men of our race, whether members of the league or not, to forward subscriptions for the parliamentary fund, to Rev. Charles O’Reilly, D. D., treasurer, Detroit, Mich. “At the convention to be held in January it is more than probable that Mr. Parnell will be present. Itiscertain that the Irish parliamentary- party will be represented. At that gathering the progress and condition of the Irish people will be stated to your representatives, and, we believe, as we earnestly pray, that the next convention after that will be one called to receive a delegation who will come from the Irish Parliament in College Green.”
BALLOONING IN A STORM. Hiding in a Thunder Shower 6,300 Feet in the Air. Hartford (Conn. ) Times. On the 29th of July, Capt. A. E. Moore and Prof. S. M. Brooks made a balloon ascension from Winsted, and four hours later returned home by the Hartford & Connecticut Western railroad. Captain Moore gives this account of the trip: “You will remember that we started at 12:54 o'clock, when we were advertised to start at precisely 1. The reason of our early start was to avoid a heavy shower of rain which we saw coming. but we were disappointed, for it struck us in less than three minutes after we cut loose, but with not sufficient force to cause any trouble more than to bring us down about 800 feet. We were at a height of 1,800 feet before encountering the rain. We then threw out twenty-five pounds of ballast and immediately rose to our former altitude, where we were caught by a light breeze, which carried us in a southeasterly direction, giving us a beautiful view of a panorama which is never seen except from a balloon. There were a dozen towns spread out beneath ns, some near enough to be recognized, while others were so far away that the houses looked like white spots on the broad green fields. Winsted’s two lakes, West Hill Pond, in New Hartford, and Otis Pond, over in Massachusetts, shone in the sunlight like silver shields. The cackling and crowing of hens and roosters, tho shouting of boys and men, and the rumbling of the Naugatuck railroad train could be heard when all other sounds had ceased to reach us. The sight was wonderfully grand, but we did not enjoy it very long, for on looking up we discovered that we were being borne toward what aeronauts call a cumulus cloud—or, to make it plainer, what was apparently a bank of fog, dark and heavy, and about 400 feet through from the top to the bottom. This cloud was continually moving in and*out, seething and boiling like the ocean in a storm, while cold breezes swept along its face which chilled us and caused the thermometer to drop 20 J in a few seconds. Large blocks of cloud would break away from the main body, sometimes passing over us in such darkness and rain that the balloon was scarcely visible from the basket. After being buffeted about on the borders of this cloud for a few minutes, we were carried away into the sunshine again, with clouds beneath us, but the earth visible on one side. “Here another trouble beset us, for though the sun light was a comfort, yet its heat, together with the lightness of the air, which relieved the pressure from the outside, caused the gas to expand to such l extent that it passed out at the neck of the balloon at the rate of a thousand feet, a minute. “The stillness here was oppressive. I could plainly hear the ticking of a watch in ray pocket, and our straw hats made such a crackling sound that I thought they were going to pieces. Brooks opened the valve at the top of the balloon, and we dropped down a few hundred feet, and came back pretty close to our oid enemy, the heavy black cloud. We did not like the looks of things
here, and were debating whether it would not be better to continue down and make a landing, when we were caught in a whirlwind and carried right into the darKness and storm. Then begau what seemed hours of terror. The rain was pouring*n on ns in torrents. Tt came at us from all side- -from above and below —being % forced up thtiS-ngh tho bottom of tho basket by the changing wind. Forked tongues of lightning severed tho clouds on all sides of us, each flash followed immediately by sharp snapping thunder. The balloon trembled and sometimes stood still for a second or two, then swung away, to be again brought to a halt by a cross current; the netting would occasio naliv shift from its position with a grating sound, while we held on as best could until the wind began to whistle through the cords, when we immediately dropped to the button of the basket. knowing that our course must soon change and the basket go swinging around like school boys playing ‘snap the whip.’ “Wo were traveling at what seemed better than a mile a minute, in total darkness, sometimes in one direction and sometimes in another, when we began throwing out ballast in hopes of rising above the storm; but after having thrown out 165 pounds, and having but ten pounds left with which to manage our landing, and beiug still in the storm, we concluded to return to mother earth. We were stiil 6.200 feet from the ground, as shown by the barometer—having gone 2,200 feet through that one cloud. The thermometer marked 45 ’. “Throwing out ballast was stopped and we started downward. When wo left the cloud the thermometer and watch showed us that we were going down at the rate of 100 feet every four seconds. A moment later we heard the voices of men, and looking down discovered that we were nearing some farmhouses and that the people were out watching us. Many of their remarks could be plainly heard; and when within about three hundred feet of the ground we dropped the grappling iron, which dragged safely through a herd of cattle in a pasture without catching on to anything that could stop us. Brooks called out to me to pull tho rip-cord, which I did, opening a hole forty feet long in the side of the balloon and letting in a gust of wind which turned it inside out and dropped the whole tiling on Barn-door Hill, in Granby, without injuring either of us. We were up fifty-four minutes and landed sixteen miles from tho starting point.”
HER Til REE VICTIMS. A Thrice-Married Woman Photographed with Her Three Husbands. Omaha Republican. A woman accompanied by three entered a down-town photograph gallery- yesterdav and gave an order for a picture of the group. Every movement that she made showed that she was the commander of the detachment and that she was fully conscious of that fact. Taking a seat before the camera, the woman called on the smallest man of the party to take a position at her back, with his hands on her shoulders. The other two were stationed on either side, and in that position the quartette was perpetuated in a tin-type picture, a copy ofjjwhich was secured by each of the group. “That is the queerest woman I ever saw,” said the tin type taker to a Republican reporter when the woman had paid her Dill and departed. “The picture just taken represents her as a bride for the third time, and the men who accompanied her have all been her husbands. The small man at her back is the third and last. Three or four years ago she married the one on her left. I took a picture of the couple. Here it is.” And he fished out an old picture which exhibited the woman on her first bridal tour. “It, was not long till she figured in the divorce courts, and a separation resulted. In a few weeks she came in again with anew husband. The old one accompanied the couple, and I took a picture of the three. Three months ago she got another divorce. Now you have seen her with her third husband. If tho patience of the judges is not exhausted I fully believe she'll get another divorce and another husband within a year or so.” “Do all bridal couples have their photographs taken?” “I suppose they do, but not together. Fashionable society brides do not bare their pictures taken with their hushands. Os course they have pictures taken in bridal costumes, but always alone. These pictures are usually taken some time after the event., when tho newness of the thing has worn off, and for that reason the fashionable bride usually makes a good ‘subject,’ for few women can have good pictures take'just before or just aftor marriage. I suppose the excitement and mental strain prevents a proper composure. The thrice married woman you saw is about the only bride I ever ‘took’ who had full control of herself in the gallery just after the wedding ceremony.” “What class of bridal couples have pictures taken together?” “Mostly foreigners of tho middle classes, and a few Americans, Germans, Swedes and Scandinavians always do. The German bride stands up with her husband anu the couple hold hands when the picture is taken. That is the general rule, but sometimes we get them to take other positions. Among the Heamtinauians tho husband usually sits down and the bride stands witli her hand on his shoulder. Occasionally we get them to reverse the position, but not often. Bridal couples are about all alike, but yet there is something different in all of them. The women, as a rule, are nervous and ill composed, while the men are distressingly unnatural in trying to appear natural. Most, ail brides fuss witli their toilets until nearly exhausted or until so flushed with exertion that their pictures look so little like them as to be almost unrecognizable. But the worst subject is the bride who faints. She can demoralize a photograph gallery more completely than a cyclone. She comes in and nervously twitches at her costume for half an hour. Finally, when she has worked herself up until beads of perspiration roll dow-n a face flushed the color of a beet, she calls her husband to her aid. Her nervousness and ex citement immediately extend to him, and no power on earth could calm the troubled couple. When they get before the camera both become frightened, and the bride caps it ail by failing into a dead faint. At such a time a groom is about as useful as a young colt. Ho does not know whether ho is on his heels or his head, and everything ho does but adds to the demoralization His fainting bride has produced. At such a time a half dozen assistants are required to prevent the distracted couple from breaking up everything in reach. Whenever a bride faints on my hands now I run the husband into the next room until she recovers. No experienced photographer is now found without remedies for fainting spells. “Women are queer creatures.” continued the picture-taker. “Asa rule they prefer to have their costumes well taken to a good picture of the face. If there is a fancy ribbon or a bit of lace anywhere on the dress nine women out of ten will insist or taking a position that will show it. The face becomes a secondary consideration. Positions are often taken that are entirely unnatural for no other purpose than to show the favorite portion of the costume. The face is sacrificed for the dress. More pictures are re jected on account of some disarrangement of the toilet ten times over than because the face is not well taken. Some men will reject pictures for similar reasons, but the number is small. The chief trouble with men is that they do not know what to do with their hands. They frequently push them forward and make them the most important feature of the picture. Home people demand that the picture ho made better looking than they are, and got very angry if it does not. Children are the best subjects. They are always natural. The attempt to appear natural is what usually spoils the picture of the adult”
The Princess of Wales anil Mrs. Langtry. London Letter in Boston Herald Mrs. Langtry was subjected three days after [the Lonsdale Ghetwynd affair] to the greatest slight that could be inflicted upon a woman in her position—a deliberate “cut” from the Princess of Wales, who is not the plastic doll in the Prince's hand that some people imagine. This episode occurred at the Coombe House, where Lady Archibald Campbell and her pastoral players were givine their last performance of “The Faithfulie Shepherdesse.” The Prince of Wales entered into conversation with Mrs. Langtry, who dropped the usual quaint courtesy with which royalty is received; the Princess of Wales had turned her back, and was talking to some one else. A hundred eyes watched the group. It has often been said, and not unjustly, tl at the Prince of Wales is remarkable for his tact, but even the most distinguished social warriors sometimes lose their heads where a pretty woman s interests are concerned, and at this moment, if any, Mrs. Langtry needed the consolation of royal favor. The Prince plucked the Princess by the sleeve, after saying to Mrs, Langtry in quit© a loud voice, “OU, the Princess
would like to tell you ” The Princess turned around, surveyed Mrs. Langtry quite as though she did not see'her, eave so slight a bow that the inclination of the head was almost impreceptible, and then deliberately turned her back and resumed her conversation with her friends. It was the hottest day of the season, but the thermometer seemed to drop a hundred degrees; the Prince looked exquisitely foolish. Mrs. Langtry’s confusion was painful to behold, and the social ax had fallen! But this new scandal may help the Lily’s theatrical interests, which have of late begun to languish. GRANT’S ROOK. The First Kdition of the General’s Memoirs to Reach ‘400,000 Copies. New York Special. The tirst edition of the personal memoirs of U. S. Grant is 150,000 copies. The publishers say they may add 50,000 copies to it. A second edition is already made necessary by the large number of subscriptions received. The presses will be set to work upon it just as soon as the first edition is completed, which will be in about three weeks. The second edition will be quite as large as the first. The first volume of the first edition will not be delivered until December. The second volume will be ready in March. Orders for tho book have been coming in very steadily, at the average of 5,000 a day. The South is doing its share of the ordering. Already 300.000 sets of two volumes have been ordered. This does not include foreign orders. The book will be translated into French, German, Spanish aud Italian. The entire manuscript for both volumes was in the publisher's bands on Friday before General Grant died. Mr. Webster took the galley proofs of the last fifty pages to Mt. McGregor on that day and showed them to tho General. The manuscript brings the story down to the close of the war and not to the day of the General’s death, as reported. Mrs. Grant is to receive 75 per cent of the profit on the book in America, and 85 per cent, on that abroad. Murder in Tennessee.

EIGHT UP FEOM THE VEEY GRAVE.
When a case like this occurs, there is no use of trying to keep it quiet. The facts will come out, and it is right that they should, so that other people can make use of them for their own benefit. “Did it (lo what ycu expected?” was the writer’s query of Mrs. Stibing, when he visited her at her home, No. 240 Douglass street. “More; more; much more tnan I could dare to expect,” was Mrs. Stibing’s answer. What was it? And what had been the matter? W u will let Mrs. Stibing tell the story. Said she: “My sen, who was eighteen years old last fall, had typhoid fever. The doctor brought him through, but the fever left him in a very low down condition. He was very weak, and while yet weak, being ambitious to ho at work again, he went to his work at the malleable iron works, where he had been before his illness. It was light and easy work for one in good health; but it proved too much for my poor boy in his w< akened state. “One day he came homo very weary, and said he was unable to work, I thought he had better remain in the house a few days and take the rest lie so greatly needed. On the following Sunday he had a hemorrhage from the lungs. Tnis weakened him more, and pulled him down so much that there seemed to he hardly anything left of him. He was so weak that the raising of his hand to his head would bring on a tlow of blood from his lungs. The doctor told us he could not live, and we sadly come to the conclusion that we would have to part with the dear boy whom we ali loved so much. “About that lime a friend who was visiting us from the country said, ‘Why don't you try Brown’s Iron Bitters? It lias done wonders among some of the sick people in our neighborhood.’ 1 had heard of Brown’s Iron Bitters, and had seen it advertised; but I had never thought much about it. and up to this time had never known anybody who had used it. So 1 said if the doctor couldn’t do anything for my son, and had come to the conclusion that he must die, there was no use in having the doctor any more. 1 would be doctor myself, and Brown’s Iron Bitters should be the medicine. It was a bold thing to do, perhaps; yet what else couid we do? Wouldn’t you have done the same yourself, sir?” “Indeed I would, Mrs. Stibing. And I hope you had hotter success in your new practice.” “Great success! Why, sir, the boy began to como right up. And oh! what a pleasure it was to see him each day getting better and better. At first it. was very slow and gradual, you know, for he had been so very low, low down. But soon he got to where it was a constant gain, and his strength seemed to come naturally to him, aud each day we could see him growing better. “Well, we went right on. I gave him about a half dozen bottles, straight along, and he began to get really strong again. The hemorrhages had stopped soon after he began taking the bitters. Before long he got so Weil that he wanted to go to tho iron works again and be at his old work. But we thought that was too heavy for him, and so he went to a lighter kind of work. He is in a paint concern now, where there is no heavy lifting, or anything of that kind for him to do.” “So, Mrs. Stibing, you regard Brown’s Iron Bitters as really the means of saving your son’s life, do you?” “1 most certainly do, sir. and the more so from the fact that the doctor had given him up, and said he could do nothing more for him. I believe Brown’s Iron Bitters to boa great medicine. sir, and I can’t tell you how glad I am that we heard of it. My son is now happy and joyful over his recovery, and to our great surprise is actually getting fat.” “And I congratulate you with all ray heart, Mrs. Stibing, that this mattei has turned out as it has. And the doctor; what does he say about it, may I ask?” “Oh! bother the doctor! He said my son must die, and wo haven’t seen him since that. I don’t know whether he has changed his opinion or not. We will let tho doctor slide.” All right! Slide away, doctor, and we will hurrah for Brown’s Iron Bitters if it can bring up a young man from the very gates of the grave in this way. Tell your friends, now, what Brown’s Iron Ritters can do. It cannot raise the dead. But it can do wonders in lifting up the feeble, strengthening the debilitated, and giving new life to those who are ready to perish. Dyspepsia, liver complaint, kidney diseases and all the host of that sort of fall before the power of Brown’s Iron Bitters. But beware lest you pick up some humbug imitation of this valuable remedy.
