A committee was appointed to visit the dry goods and shoe bouses.on Virginia avenue and West Washington street, and ask them to subscribe to the early-closing agreement The committee from tbe grocery clerks’ organization said that society bad not yet decided what action to take toward Joining the Early-closing Association. The constitution was amended so as to provide that each member absent from a meeting, unless sick or out of the city, shall be fined not less than ten cents nor more than twenty-five cents. Handbills are to be printed and presented to each hopse in sympathy with the movement, to be sent ont with parcels sold, annonneing th e fact of their early closing. A Pronouncing Bee. In response to what is deemed to be a general demand, it has been arranged to repeat tbat part of tbe entertainment given in Tabernacle Church, last week, called a “pronouncing bee,” on next Moriflay night With the experience gained on that occasion those in charge think a very entertaining evening can be promised to all who are interested in contests of this kind. There will be none of the delay that detracted so much from the enjoyment of the previous “bee.” In order to make it popular the schedule of prices has been fixed at the lowest notoh—one Vinos desks at King A Elder’s.

THE GKEATEST OF HEROES. George R. Wendling’s Lecture Delivered Last Evening on “Saul of Tarsus.” The Apostle Whose Life Was Devoted to the Destruction of Caste—A Glowing Tiihute to the Jewish Race.

The lecture of George R. Wendling on “Saul of Tarsus” was delivered at Plymouth Church last evening, under the auspices of the Lecture Course Association, to a fair, audience. In the opening of his lecture, Mr. Wendling said: “I would show you to-night the most wonderful man, in many respects, that the world has known —and lam not a hero-worshiper. I hold that there is so much inherent greatness, so much of the divine, in all men, that we wrong the race by too great an exaltation of the individual The broad humanity of Emerson harmonizes better with my feelings and convictions, as I look out upon the struggles of men and communities, than does Carlyle’s idolatory of kingship. And yet, although one may not so love mountain scenery as to prefer the peaks of Sierra Nevada, or the towering crags of the Alps, to the long and peaceful stretches of watered plain and wooded valley, one's head nevertheless is bowed, the heart throbs faster, the cheek catches a hue of pallor from tho light that beats around the Great White Throne, as a sense of eternity comes slowly on, when one contemplates the awful and unexplored height of Chimborazo. One may find greater pleasure in his travels than in looking upon waterfalls and rushing torrents, yet there is no soul that can stand unmoved before Niagara. It is not with the spirit, then, of a worshiper that 1 approach the grandest man the earth has seen. The towering heights of his moral character, and the impetuosity of his mighty genius, simply compel me to yield that tribute, even as Niagara and Chimborazo compel me to confess a sense of illimitable majesty and power. The task lam about to attempt is to take the personage whom all the world knowi as Saint Paul out of the clouds which doctrinal theology has thrown around him. I would remove somewhat of the mystery with which he is invested in the popular mind. 1 would dig through the controversial sand that has long gathered around his stately figure, 1 would put aside the blinding dnst of denominational differences which obscures his personality, even as the desert sand blown by hot winds for centuries, obscured some of Egypt’s choicest works of art 1 would fain bid you look to-night, not upon a subtle and profound theologian, buz upon the majestic form of the orator, the hero, the martyr, the bold, tender, conscientious, loving and lovable. Hence my theme is not Paul the apostle, the inspired embassador of anew religion, but Saul of Tarsus, as he was without the superadded gift of miraculous aid. Viewed simply as a man of genius, of eloquence, and of all heroio qualities, setting aside for the time all claim to supernatural power, and evading also a discussion of his profound theology, Paul stands out upon the canvas the foremost of orators, the greatest of heroes, the bravest of warriors, and the most wonderful man among men.” The lecturer, describing Judaism, paid the following glowing tribute to the Jewish race: “O Jew! Thy honor and thy glory are great beyond the power of man to tell! Great poets and prophets have come from thy loins, great wealth and great learning, great writers and thinkers, great philanthropists and merchants. Greatness is thy heritage, and great have been thy sufferings. The shrieks of tortured Israel ring through every land in every age for two thousand years. But once more cau it now be said, the fullness of time is at hand. Jndaism in its exclusiveness is vanishing, and the Jew himself is taking his rightful place to-day in the great brotherhood of man. Tbe political recognition and preferment of Jews, business connections with Jews, social intercourse with Jews, intermarriage with Jews, all these are matters of growing frequency throughout America, and I thank God that 1 live in the land and age that sees all these signs of reconciliation between gentiles and that grand old Hebrew race. Under these influences the time is near when, like Julian, Israel shall cry out, ‘O Nazarene, thou hast conquered!’ He sees very dimly who fails to read in this nineteenth century the signs of Israel's final dissolution. Meanwhile, let every statesman and every pulpit in tbe civilized world denounce with righteous wrath that old, old crime of Christendom, that burning, shameless crime, that Godless, soulless, Christless, crime, Christian prejudice against the Jew! So shall the time be hastened when the world shall indeed believe that of one blood All the nations of mankind are made,” He described the martyrdom of Stephen and Paul’s first appearance, and dwelt upon Paul's journeys, labors and persecutions. On the subject of Paul’s courage, he said no man, from the mythologie age of Greece to the days of the crusaders, and from the crusaders to the death of England’s latest hero in the Soudan, no one can be named who is the peer of Saul of Tarsus. He discussed Paul as au orator, and said tbat by an amazing misconception professional men who would achieve excellence in oratory are prone to pass St. Paul by in their study of the methods of great orators. In concluding be said: “In every great man’s life there is one controlling idea, one unifying purpose running through all his work. What was the dominant thought in Paul’s life work? Os course, I speak now not of Paul’s theology,, but of his philosophy and his life as viewed only from the human side. What was the paramount object, the creat moving purpose of this man’s head and heart? With Whitefield it was salvation; with John Brown it was anti-slavery; with Washington, patriotism; with Raskin it is art; with Wilherforce, philanthropy; with Napoleon, glory, with Shakspeare, poetry; with Columbus, discovery; with Plato, philosophy; with Saul of Tarsus it was the universal brotherhood of man. Humanly speaking, the animating idea of Paul’s life was the destruction of caste, the sowing of that doctrine which makes Jew or gentile equal in the eight of God. Paul is the cosmopolitan. Let no man in this land of ours call himself a Christian who would deny citizenship or fellowship to any human being of any race or color. At last, at Rome, an old man, gray and weak, he holds up his manacled hands and says: “I am ready to be offered.” His last letter to his dearest friend, young Timothy, wa3 written here, and it answers every question we would fain to ask Paul, as we stand at his prison door while he awaits tbe executioner. It was in this prison, chained, aged, and broken in health, tbat Paul’s unquenchable spirit rose to such grand heights in his immortal epistles to the Colossians and the Ephesians; but let us find the answers we seek in this last letter of his, the letter to Timothy. Is there in thy heart now, thou noblest of noble men, is there a doubt now in thy heart concerning the reality of that Damascus vision? Listen. “I know Him whom I have believed. He is able to guard that which I have committed unto Him.” But Paul! Paul! before the last rays of this day’s sun shall have falleD on tbe yellow waters of the Tiber yonder, the sword of a Roman headsman shall have taken thy life away. Can’st thou see into the darkness beyond? Listen. ‘Our Savior Jesus Christ has put an end to death, and brought life and immortality from darkness into light.’ And thou art still undaunted, still undismayed; now that the supreme test has come, art thou still sure of thy reward? Listen. ‘I have fought the good fight ; I have finished the course, I have kept the faith; henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness which the Master shall give me, and not only to me, but also to all them that have loved his appearing.’ a AU hail! Glorious Apostle! Hail! and farewell.’’ Sentences of Criminal Court Prisoners. Judge Norton was on the Criminal Court bench a short time yesterday, to pass sentence upon men who had been convicted before him. Ilis health is somewhat improved, but the doctors advise him to keep from work as much as possible. He sentenced Charles Mitchell, the murderer of Simon Cox, to tbe penitentiary for life; John J. Jones, who stole $250 in a Louisian astreet saloon, from a countryman, some weeks ago, to a five-years term, and John Hensley, convicted of grand larceny, to a two-years term. Acting Judge Ross Clarke sent Den O’Shafer to

the penitentiary for one year, and Union Eller to the work-house for sixty days. They stole a lot of meat from David Wilkinson. THE TELEPHONE SITUATION. Nothing Definite Developed from the Talk About the Leasing of the Plant. The conference of the judiciary and special council committees with the telephone representatives will be continued at 2 o’clock Saturday afternoon, atthe office of Calvin Hooker. It is the sense of several of the committeemen that if the telephone company Will continue its service until the last contract expires in September, pending a decision of the United States Supreme Court, no recommendation will be made to Council looking to a repeal of the franchise. It is probable that this ultimatum will be the basis of the conference. While these committees seem to have their dernier resort, the company is as well supplied. There was some hope conference would take place before the day fixed for the removal of the instruments, but it failed, because some of the committeemen notified Mr. Rooker that they could attend on norther day but next Saturday. In the meantime the company’s local representatives were preparing, last night, to remove the instruments, under expired contracts, to-day. It was the purpose of the conference with the city’s representatives to either prevent their removal, or to have all instruments taken out at once, but as the day of removing the first instruments precedes the date of the conference it is hard to say what will be the result of Saturday’s meeting. This phase of the difficulty was suggested to Mr. Waiiick and Superintendent Hockett last night, both of whom said they did not know what effect their action in removing the instruments would have upon the meeting with the council and aldermanic committees. “We tried to reach Mr. Rooker to-day,” said Superintendent Hockett, “We thought it an act of courtesy to tell him what we propose to do.” “Then you are to begin without question the work of removal?” “Yea Wo are arranging for it now. It will be a long and troublesome affair. I am acting under the original instructions.” “You have received no modification of the first order to remove all instruments the contracts for which have expired?” “No. The instructions remain as they were given. A force will be put to work at once. We are acting under this clause of the agreement made with the citizens’ committee as the result of the agitation last July, and which is indorsed on the contracts: ‘This contract may be terminated by the Central Union Telephone Company at any time after a final decision by the Supreme Court of Indiana upon said law and the interpretation thereof, or giving fifteen days’ notice of its desire so to do.” This notice has been given, as you know, to all who? 3 contracts expired the last day of March and iv is to be carried out. It affects between 450 and 470 instruments. Mr. Wallack said: “We will run right along, if the city permits us, operating all telephones under contracts that do not expire until June 30. If there is any possible way to make expenses we will continue to operate the exchange, but we can’t run it under the law. We would be glad to do so if we could.” “Has anything developed in the way of a syndicate taking the plant and operating it?’’ “There has been nothing definite yet The proposition has been that the syndicate shall take the service and share with the company. However, it has thus far amounted only to talking over probabilities.” Yesterday S. D. Cushman, of New Lisbon, 0., came to the city to utilize any advantage tbat would come in his way in the interest of the American Cushman Telephone Company. This gentleman claims the successful invention and operation of a telephone many years prior to the Bell patents. He offers affidavits to the effect that he had telephones in working order in 1863, and also that he invented a receiver similar to that of the Bell in 1851. The Cushman company has had a practical business in telephoning, without, it is claimed, being enjoined by the Bell.

SIM COY’S LATEST SCHEME. llow the Bnmmer Boss and His Henchmen Are Endeavoring to Gall Laboring Men. Benjamin F. Rodgers, the Democratic nominee for township trustee, was supported before the convention by Sira Coy and his men. This man Coy, who is nothing if not Democratic, and who believes in securing the success of his party by fair means or foul, managed the primaries, selected the delegates, and manipulated the convention in the interest of Rodgers and now proposes to hoodwink the workingmen into voting for bis candidate. Sim, who has not done a day’s work since ho left the shoemaker’s bench before he had half completed his apprenticeship, years ago, has been from the opening of the campaign studying the problem of labor reform. His hands are white, chubby and soft; his face full, fat and rosy.; his body rotund, and legs short He dresses in fine linen, his clothes are of the latest cut, bi3 Derby hat of the latest form, and his good humor inexhaustible. He has but one thought, and that is superetni□ent faith in the Democratic party, its war record, blunders and inglorious defeats time after time included. Sim will resort to any method to get votes, and his last scheme is to bring to his beck and call the Knights of Labor. He wants to speak for them, dictate what they shall do and for whom they shall vote. Tbe present canvass in behalf of Rodgers has not brought forth all that Simeon desires. He does not entertain any sincere belief in his man’s election, unless be can play successfully his last scheme, and that is to make the people and intelligent workingmen believe tbat the Knights of Labor aro committed as a unit to the support of Rodgers. It is a principle of the Knights of Labor that they, as an organization, can take no part in politics; but Simeon, who is not a member, because he is excluded on account of his saloon, proposes they shall, and his plan is developed in the following: A few days ago Coy went to the secretary of the Masonic Hall Association and proposed to rent it for the coming Saturday evening. “For what purpose?” asked the secretary. “If you want it for a ball, a party, a theatrical performance, or an entertainment, the rent will he according to the time it is used.” “1 want it for a Democratic meeting,” said Simeon. He seenred the ball, paid the rent, and went to work drafting a style of advertisement that would catch the attention of workingmen. He decided on having circulars spread broadcast through the factories and workshops. With the assistance of John Sullivan he prepared the copy with a flaming top, “Great Labor Demonstration,” or something of that sort. This is what Saturday night’s Masonic Hall meeting is tobecalled.bat its beginning and end will be Sim Coy, Frank Rodgers and Democracy. Secretary of State Myers, a gentleman who is expected to defeat Byuum for the congressional nomination, and Col. J. B. Maynard, who was a leading spirit in the anti-Bynum canvass Tuesday night, are to be the principal speakers. Bira is not resting on ms circulars to have the mooting appear as a great labor demonstration. He and his henchmen are working among the Democratic Knights to have the various assemblies march to the ball in a body. It is a deep plan to deceive the public and place Republican Knights of Labor in a position which they are not willing and have at no time since the beginning of the campaign been inclined to take—an unqualified, support of Rodgers. Lafayette Gets the Encampment. The committee on arrangements for the next Sute encampment, at a meeting held last evening, in the Adjutant-general’s office, decided to hold the encampment at Lafayette, if satisfactory arrangements conld be made, and to that end Adjutant-general Koontz was requested to meet with the citizens of that place to-morrow evening.

NEW TEIAL OF AN OLD CASE. A Damage Suit Which Has Passed Through All Processes of Litigation, Aod Still Is No Nearer an End Than in the Beginning—The Celebrated Tay-lor-Rice Case Reopened. The suit of Dr. Henry W. Taylor, a homeopathic physician now residing in Illinois, against Dr. Harrison J. Rico, an old allopathic practitioner of Rockville, for damages on account of alleged malicious prosecution, which has passed through nearly all phases of the ups and downs of litigation, and has been in the courts for years, is now no nearer am end than it was in the beginning, Judge Woods having rendered a decision in the United States Court yesterday which reopens the case. The suit arose from an active interest which Dr. Rice took in procuring testimony upon which Taylor was indicted in Parke county on tho charge of criminal practice, but of which he was acquitted when tried before a jury. In his complaint demanding damages Taylor assumed the burden of showing that Rice went before the grand jury and maliciously testified falsely, and procured others to testify that he had been guilty of criminal practice, resulting in the death of the patient'and child. When the case came up in the federal court a few months ago, after having been transferred from the Circuit Courts, the trial occupied over three weeks, and resulted finally in the jury returning a verdict giving the plaintiff judgment for damages to the amount of SIO,OOO. The attorneys for Rice entered a motion for anew trial, and the argument on this has occupied, at different times, several days. In his decision, which was rendered yesterday, Judge Woods holds that “there is a clear lack of of evidence to support the charge” which Taylor, in his complaiut against Rice, assumes the burden of proving. “Indeed,” the Judge says, “if a strict construction of the complaint had been insisted upon at the trial, the court would probably have deemed it proper to direct a verdict for the defendant: but tho case being argued before the jury, on the conceded theory that the complaint contained a separate charge against the defendant of wrongful assistance to tho prosecution, rendered after the indictment had been found, it was deemed proper to submit that issue, and the others with it, to the consideration of the jury.” The court agrees with the counsel of the defendant that this charge was not well laid, because it is not shown that the alleged assistance was rendered maliciously and without probable cause. The judge states that if there were no other objections to the verdict, he would be inclined to hold the defendant estopped to make this one; but, limiting the case, as he thinks it should be, to this charge of assistance at the trial, he feels constrained to declare the damages excessive. That the verdict was not the result of a dispassionate consideration of the evidence, seems to the court altogether probable—especially iu the light of some of the arguments and appeals made to the jury, more particularly the denunciation of the defendant on account of the alleged desecration of the grave of the deceased woman, opened for the purpose of the official post-mortem examination. Other considerations equally irrelevant to the rights of the litigants, were woven into multifarious appeals of such eloquence and force as to leave little room for wonder at the result The Judge gives as a furthor reason for his belief that the verdict is not right, the opinion that the defendant had reasonable cause to believe the plaintiff guilty of the crime for which he was indicted. It may be that Dr. Rice knew or had heard of other facts, circumstances or statements than those brought out in the trial, but, if so, not of such significance as to change the nature of the case as outlined. While these facts and circumstances fall short of showing beyond a reasonable doubt a case of criminal abortion, they are such as to evoke the greatest suspicions, and, in the court’s judgment, strong enough to justify any good citizen, if he chose to do it, in moving tho grand jury to an investigation, and an indictment having been returned by that body, to warrant him in giving assistance to the prosecution. For these reasons he thinks tbat the defendant is entitled to the new trial asked.

INSTRUCTING THE ASSESSORS. The Tax Lists and Candidate Palmer’s Election Tickets To Be Distributed Together. Assessor Messlck and the county auditor were engaged yesterday in qualifying the deputies who are to assess the tax values this year. Unlike the meeting Monday night, all were present. It was not necessary on this occasion to exclude those who are not favorable to Palmer’s candidacy, and Mr. Messick, too, in his tall: took a different ground. He told them that they must attend to their duties, and that there must he no idling or wasting of time. He did not object to their drinking a taste now and then, but it must be within the limit of moderation. After the day’s work is over they could do as they pleased, but he expected the drinkers among them to be always on the safe side of sobriety. They must be courteous and attentive to every one, and if at times they became irritated by grumblers, or by persons inclined to complain or to speak sharply to them, they must be patient and gentlemanly. He also instructed them to exercise the greatest care in assessing values, and not to let anything step in between them and their duties. They must attend strictly to business. It was also impressed on them that inequalities would appear, but if the county is to have enough money for expenses next ypar the assessments aud real estate appraisements must be kept up, and not allowed to fall below the values of the present duplicate. County Commissioner Sahm supplemented this part of the assessor’s speech by saying that the Legislature restricted the county levy to 33 cents, and hence, if there is to be sufficient money to meet deficits, current expenses and interest obligations, the assessed and appraised values must necessarily be as high as they were last year. The deputies were then supplied with tax -lists in the distribution of which to-day, to morrow and Saturday the Democrats among them are to electioneer' for Marsh Palmer, according to instructions given in the secret meeting Monday night. As they passed from tho presence of the assessor, Marsh Palmer stood ready to give each upon whom he could rely, a bundle of his election tickets. This year the lists aud Palmer’s tickets are to be distributed together. Removal.
