TOriCS 0 THE PREACHERS

Pastor Edwards Begins Ilis Service at Fletcher-riace Methodist Church. Dr. Conrad's Sermon on a Distinction All People Should Attain Exercises in the Interest of Young People's Christian Endeavor. 'Kcv. C. C. Edwards, tho new pastor at Fletchor-place M. E. Church, preached two sermons yesterday, which wero listened to by largo congregations. In tho evening ho chose for his text Hebrews xii, 2: "Looking unto Jesus, tho author and finisher of our faith, who, for the joy that was aet before Him. endured tho cross, despising tho shame, and is set down at the right hand of tho throno of Uod.r; The term faith, tho preacher said, is not used in the context to express personal belief in God, or that faith which saves tho emil, but it expresses rather tho syetcta of which Jesus ia the author. Ho is tho one who himself 'has successfully run tho race from tho beginning to tho end, and Ho knows personally aud experimentally all tho way over which wo mutt pass. While wo are partially dependent upon our repurees. He will give help if it is needed and inspire us by His presence. It is a difficult task to estimate the importance and inlluence of the presenco of a worthy and competent Inador, in whom men can havo implicit confidence, but experience teaches all tiiat in Jesus alone can such a ouo be fonnd. "Oh. Chat we might all come," the pastor said in this connection. "to understand and more fully appreciate the fact that we may every moment have th presence, and help, and audience of such an all.wiHu unci mighty leader as is Jcsng. No real harm can befall or permanent defeat come to those who do service andmake battle in tho way along which Jesus has traveled before us. We may sometimes think that there aro lions in tho path, as did-Hanyau's Eilgrim, but we will always find them, as o did, Kecurely fastened. Look to Jesus, follow Him in all things, trust Him fully and freely. We are all more or less familiar with His life and sufferings hero on earth, but I fear that we do not fully appreciate them. Jesus was very poor, and for us JIe who was rich for our sakes became poor that we rniirht, through his poverty, become rich There is a great difference between those who havo never known anything else but want, and snfferiug, and all manner of privations, and thoso who have once beeu in the greatest plenty, whoso every taxte and nppetito has been supplied in abundance, and then, suddcnl', whoso condition has been changed to that of abject poverty and want. No words can describe the feelings and experiences of tho latter. "Jeans exchanged the riches of heaven for the poverty of earth. While hero He was without honor such asihe world consider it. Thero is a wide difference between thoso'who havo never known what it is to i-eceivo the honors and preferments of men, to hear the applause of tho multitude,, and to be the recipients of Uie greatest honorman can bestow, and those who have received there honors bnt have bf en suddenly deprived of them. The 8on of God was, in lionor, and power, and glory, equal to t hat of His Father, who lived aud reigned amidt tho glories and beauties of heaven, but He came down to this world to become the hou of one unknown and imhonoml of men. There is something indescribably painful in one's being misunderstood and mistreated by those for whom ono is trying to do good, and only good. It is only by sustaining grace that ho can bear in patience tho adversities of this life. But I am glad that wo have a baviorwho endured all, and a great deal more than any one else will ever have to pass through. 7 In conclusion tho pastor discussed tho motives of Jesus in enduring the suffering on tho cross. One tjxt says that it was becauue of the joy that was set before Him," ho said. . "He saw before He loft heaven what would be the result of his experience and mission on earth, but moro than that. Ho was ablo to look down through tho vistas of time and seo what the final outcome would be. It was this nowttr that gave Him joy. Ouo possible cause for this was tho knowledge that additional honor ana glory would come to Him in tho day of final triumph. In this sense there was a personal honor and joj' set before Jeaus in undertaking His work of love and entering; Hut 1 think the chief source of his joy was that which should come to Him in the sight of the great multitude whom Ho would be instrumental in saving.. I think that in the crowning day that is coming it will bo a joyful thought tc Him that so many who havo been in the lowest places .of earth haro been helped, un and out of the deepest degradation and have boeome bright and shiuing lights in the world.'1 A Distinction All Should Desire. Rev. Dr. F. W. Conrad, of Philadelphia, editor of the Lutheran Observer, and who has been a minister of the gospel for moro than fifty years, preached at tho English Lutheran Church yesterday morniug and evening. He took as his text Ephesians ii, 4, 5, C, and showed that tho desire of distinction was constitutional, aud manifested itself in every human breast. Some seek it by accumulating knowledge, some by getting wealth, some by achieving military glory, and others by acquiring power and place. In most cases tho bubble hursts nnd leaves its possessor po8r indeed. He then said there was a distinction all men should desire the distinction of bving qnickoned together with Christ, of being raised from a moral gravo and exalted to a high nlaco in the kingdom of Uod. He showed upon whom this distinction has beeu coufened, this moral resurrection that raises men np together and makes them to sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. It was shown in the text that at first men wero dead in sin; second, they were quickened together with Christ; third, they were raised up from their graves, and, fourth, they sit together in heavenly places all of which must take place iu this world, and does. The loctor, with numerous references to the liiblo, said that wherever Christians meet the places conld be called heavenly, because in those places spiritual blessings are dispensed which improve and fit the soul for heaven itself. It is in these places that Christians receive the assnrnuce that heaven itself exists, and to all persons whose minds have not been spoiled by skepticism tho testimony of faith is satisfactory. The Scriptures declare that heaven snail be tho mheritauco of the children of God. The churches are rightly called heavenly, because in them Christians receive a high foretaste of tho joys of heaven itself. Ho saul that many persons, not experimental Christians, imagine when they die aud enter heaven, as they expect, they will enjoy the spiritual things that are in heaven. Ho held that they would be much mistaken, for if they havo not enjoyed theru in this life, they' will not enjoy them in a higher sense in heaven. Faith there would not bo of a different type from that faith which is here. Hope will not be of a different kind from that which is here declared to be the anchor of the soul. In conclusion, he said it was greatly to be regretted that a large proportion of tho inhabitants of the largo cities of this country neglected to frequent tho places where the gospel is preached, and that they go together to places of gluttony, licentiousness, drunkenness, debauchery and infidelity, and assimilate their characters to that of the devil. An Endeavor llalljlng Night. . Last evening was the rallying night of the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor, and the services were- held at the Fourth Presbyterian Church, the attractive audience-room being well filled with members of the society and their friends. The meeting was opened with devotional exercises, led. by Rot. E. P. Whallon, the pastor of tho church, and following these. Miss Elba Mathowa read a welbprepared paper on tho 'Object and Work of the Society." Other interesting contributions were made by Charles W. Moores on The Y. P. S. U. E. as a Social Fower for Christ and the Church;" Miss Jennie Graydon on "The Prayer-meeting, th Central Feature of tho Society," and Edwin L. Hummer, on "The Perpetual Obligation of Christian Life1 A pleasant

feature of tbe proeramme was the music, the numbers given by the choir nnd the congregational singing being admirable throughout. Additional Members. Yesterday morning was communion at the First Presbyterian Church, and twenty-six persons were added to the membership. t TARGET SHOOTING SEASON.

The Closing Festival of the Indianapoli Association-Winners of tlie Prizes. Tho closing fall festival of the Indianapolis Target-shooting Association was held yesterday at its park, two miles northwest of the city. Although a cold northeasterly wind was rustling the fallen leaves aud tho 6ky gave no promise of fine weather, they did not prevent tho commencement of the shooting shortly after 10 o'clock, a. m., when folly 500 people had assembled on tho grounds. Protection from the wind was afforded to the visitors in tbe wooden structures, in ono of which a brass band discoursed in lively strains, popular dance music. Luncheon was also provided in sufficient quantity to supply the demands of tho most Toracious, and the indispensable lager beer kegs were kept flowing all day long. The competitive shooting in the various classes closed toward 3 o'clock, and prizes, amounting jn all to $300. were distributed to the following successful marksmen: Champion Target Twenty shots allowed each contestant; hieheft possible score, 60O Ed Hretz. y?jO, fcold rcedal; Frank Maus, 375; A.

A large number of members of the Independent Turn-verein marched from their hall, cor ner of Illiuois and Ohio streets, reaching the gtouudsin thirty-five minutes from the time they started. Other local Germau societies were also represented. On a Ylit of Inspection. Maj. J. M. Taylor, general manager of tho American Shooting Association, will bo here one day, tho latter part of the week, to meet tho local sportsmen. Ho is on a tour of inspection, with a view -to select E laces for association tournaments to bo eld early next spring. COLLISION OF TRAINS. A Fireman and Prakeinan on the Bi Four Killed Other Trainmen Badly Injured. 9 .Owing to a misunderstanding of orders a wreck occurred on the Big Four near Cincinnati on Saturday night, resulting in the death of fireman'Edward Morns aud brakeman S. P. Daniels, both residents of this city. A west-bound freight and a wrecking tram, whilo going at a high rate of ypeed, collided. Both engine were demolished, and the cars behind, by the force of tho collision, piled up in a mass of debris. Dispatches from Cincinnati stato that the freight train consisted of eleven cars, and was drawn by engine 1201, whilo the wrecking train wa3 iu charge of engineer Janus A. Grei'ii, of engine rP. Besides the-two men killed, engineer York, of the freight train, had a cut on the head and his back was badly injured. Engineer Green, of the wreekhig train, had an ankle broken, and his head was badlv cut. Fins man Jacob Whetstein had both legs badly injured, one of them having to be amputated yesterday morning. Engineer York, when asked as to tho canse of the disastor. attributes it to the train-dispatcher. Ho says ho was given orders to meet tho freight on the track near Delhi, and that no orders were given engineer Green at all. The body of bniueman Daniels was discovered yesterday morning under the wreck, badly mutilated. It was first thought that he had escaped. The bodies of Morris, who resided at 170 Meek street, and Daniels, of 148 Nordyke avenue, will be brought to this city this morning. PARK AROUND THE CAPITOL. . A Citizen Suggests that the State Buy the Property Surrounding that Building. 'While Indianapolis is said to havo public buildings of remarkable beauty," said a eitizen yesterday as he met a reporter near the Capitol building, Mthe time will como when she will not have as good facilities for display in g them to their best advantages as she has now. Take, for example, tho State-house. It is a marvel of economy aud beauty combined, but at tho same time one has to get off at a good distance to fully annreciate it. A Imildinc as larce as that must have distance to addtoitsimpressiveness. Of course, now we cau get that distance, because tho houses in its neighborhood are not very large, but it is hardly to bo supposed they will always remain as thev are. In ten years' time it is probable ine're win oo six, cigui ana ten-srory oiocks on the south side of Washington street; and large buildings on Mississippi and Tennessee streets. This will result in dwarfing the view of tho-Capitol." I would sugtrest that tho State buy tho blocks on all sides of the Capitol and lav them out in a beautiful park. The effect would bo very good. ot only would we havo a park in the heart of the city, bnt when a stranger came here to see the Capitol he could take a position at a sufficient distance to guarantee n satisfactory viow. ITEMS FPU FISHERMEN. Arrangements for the Fly-Casting Tourna ment In Tomlinson Hall. All arrangements for tbe lly-fishermcns tournament in Tomlinson Hall, to-morrow night, have been completed. Tho enter tainment will be enlivened by orchestral music, and the contests will be governed strictly by tho rules heretofore put in force at fly-casting tournaments. ro amateur will be permitted to compete who has fashed for a living, been a guide, or has been en gaged in tho manufacture or nsmng-tackle for tho market. All oi tho singlehanded rods will be twelve feet or under in length, but differences m lencth will net bo considered in the final records of distance casting. Each contestant will be allowed fivo minutes for distance, not including any time that may be required to repair a broken rod or line. To give ample protection to spectators, the points of all ny-hooks will bo broken on above the bend. A lrge Mutkallonge. At June's restaurant, on North Illinois street, mav be seen an unusually fino sneci men of muskallonge," measuring forty-nino inches and weighing thirty-five pounds. It was caught in northern Wisconsin, on a fourteeu-ounee Uethabara rod, by Mr. H. Ii. Hibben. and is tho largest one secured this eeaasou iu regiuu. Suppose! to Have Taken Poison. The stomach of Henry Lee Jones, tho Fayette county farmer who is supposed to havo committed suicide shortly after the murder of Katie Hood, is being analyzed by Dr. J. N. Hurty, of this city. Tho Doctor stated last night that the condition of the stomach was perfectly fresh, and no traco of decomposition existed, thus exciting the suspicion that some poison was taked by the aeccaseti, wnicn is acting as a preservative. Dr. Gregg, a Connersville nhvtiician. testified before the coroner there that the post-mortem examination of Jones showed tho causo of nis acatu to do neart failure. Kew parlor goods at "Win. L.

A TALK "WITH AN OLD ACTOR

Eanclictt's Recollections of tbe Stage When Forrest V as in His Prime, ITacrcady and the Elder Booth Recalled Changes in fhe Drama and Its Represent- . ation Daring a Qnarter of a Century. At the entrance to English's Opera-house, Saturday afternoon, two gentlemen were in conversation. Ono was tho actor and author. Con Murphy, aud tho other also an actor, a portly gentleman nearly 6ix feet two.was David Hanchett. with bright eyes, and cheeks like a winter apple, though he is within hailing distance of his seventieth milo stone. Mr. Hanchett was talking about old times aud old actors, though he lives in the present and never indulges in reminiscences except upon persuasion. "Yes," said he, in answer to a question, M knew McKean Buchanan well. . Ho was a poker-player and cotton-dealer iu New Orleans, and much given'to spouting scraps of plays. He had been playing poker in hard luck, aud his friends, to recruit his finances, got a theatrical manager to let him appear in a play. He was a well-known character, and his playing was a sight to see. The consequence was that the theater was crowded night after night for a week, and as the news papers were full of it he got a star en gagement Itwasa huge joke among actors, and they flattered McKeau Buchanan no difficult thing to do into bclieviug himself a dramatic phenomenon. I think it turned his brain. 'He remained on thestagoand died worth somo money. It was said of him that he never gave up tho fascinating g a trio of poker, and made moro at that than out of histrionics. The joke used to go round, that onco when Buchanau was told that the man at tho box office was stealing from him, and was asked why he didn't dischargo him, he replied that it made no difference how much the man stole, he won it all back from him at poker." 'Of course vou know Forrest in his old age,' remarked a bystander. Sir," said Mr. liancnett, drawing nimself up, "I knew that grand man in his prime. 1 nrst met r.dwin orrest iu oavanuan, ua., in imo. i was mere in xne stock company. I afterwards played with him in Chicago, in 1S47, and later in Cincinnati and many other places. I played with him in the Broadway Theater, ew York, in 1S51, when I was leading man. Ho played Coriolanus and nlaved it crandlv. A num ber of mightv plays have literally died with Edwin Forrest. At that time the New York Tribune was scoring him at tbe rata of a column a day, but great crowds flocked to see him in spite of the abuse, wntcu was because of tho trouble ho was having with his wife. I think Kich-lieu,' JL,ear,' Damou. 'Vinriiuus.' Spartacns,' Metnmora' nnd Mack Cade' died with him. John MeCulionvh played irginius' well for tho rising generation, but compared with Forrest's characterization it was weak. McCnllough had not the physique for the part. Forrest was tho only man that could lift Othello.' Lift '01110110'! ejaculated the reporter. who was little acquainted with dramatic technicalities. "I have sieu Salvini in 'Othello" con- t tinned the veteran, not hoeding the interruption. "but he played it cat-like, not at all in character with the noble Moor. Othello never crept at anything. He was open aud direct, fc.nlvmi will do for 1 ago he, too, was au Italian but not for Othello." "What did you think of MacreadyP was asked. "Vou cannot compare Maercady with Forrest. Edwin Forrest could not touch Macready's parts, though Macready could piav many pans mat x uriosv piu,auu play them better. Macready was a better Macbeth than was our great Edwin; but the highest grade of acting I ever saw was Macready's Werner, l saw mm in xnai rolo at the old Park Theater, New York, with Hvdcr. Charlotte Cushman. old Fish er. Wheatley and Mrs. Abbctt. Itwasa mighty performance, the greatest I ever saw in my life." "Do vou think l orrest was a greater actor than Edwin Booth!" asked tho reporter. "I think so. thouah Edwin Booth ia a brilliant actor. But I am talking of the men of the past. It may not be invidious to say that tho elder Booth. Juuins Brutus, was greater than his famous son. 'Kichard III. 'Tho Apostate,' 'Sew Way to Pay Old Debts,' 'The Iron Chest,' and like Idays aro not produced now. Parts like ago and Hamlet are much lighter, and Ed win Booth has not the intensity of nis father, bnt it is not required." "liow does the acting of to-day compare with that of tho past?" "It lacks breadth and intensity: bnt the drama now, taken as a whole, is far in ad vance of what it was in the days of which I have been speaking. There are now many brilliant 3'oung men and women on the stage, ana on tnownoiei prefer the new school to tho old. As a rule. people wno come to the theaters see a more finished class of acting, because the wholo season, sometimes half a dozen or moro seasons, are devoted to ono or two pieces. It was very different in the old days. Tho members of a stock company had to hustle and learn two or three or half a dozen plays with each star that came along. In the old times a piece of furniture of any kind was never used upon tbe stage if it could be dispensed with. Furniture, chairs, etc., were considered in the way. In the third act in 'Othello' all the room xn the stage was wanted for the acting. The sofa was thero. becauso Othello was to throw himself upon it; now the scene is set with stuffed sofas, and chairs, and faucy tables, all around. There's more sitting down on tho stage than there used to bo. One of the mistakes of the day is to make a legitimate play colloquial. All blank verse parts are written exactly liko music, leading up to a certain climax in the speeches. To reach theso climaxes requires action and force, and when sitting down it is impossible to produce the effect required. With the modern pieco yon can sit down or stand up, or do what you please; everything is made casv. "Take for instance Julia in The Hunchback. The lust scene in tho last act is the climax: Devise some speedy means To cheat the altar of its victim; Do it; nor leave the tak to me. ' 'Do it was the note, and the person who could carry that note the highest was the bright particular star, l havo eeen Julia Doan get threo terrific runs of applause on that climax, which follows a long fcpeeoh, and tho old theater-goers of that day would wait aud wait for that line. Thev did not como to see the piece thev alryady knew it by her.rt but they wero like epicures, and came only for that speech and climax, as a sweet morsel, and then they would talk about how she did it for a dav or two. Theater-iroers in thoso davs. even down to the boot-blacks, would dis cuss tho great plays and great actors in a way. that this generation kuows nothing about. People now go to seo a play iu the sarco spirit that one picks up aud reads a dime novel to amuse for an hour or so and then to forget. They liko sensation, amusement for a time, but no food for the mind. Yet, I prefer tho prcseut system by all odds. The old-timo way gave actors a slavish life." Amusement Notes. The limited engagement of Emma Abbott and her English opera company, which is generally credited with being the best poeratic organization of its kind in the country, will begin at the Grand to-night. "Kose of Castile," with Miss Abbott in tbe leading character, will bo presented. The performance promises to be brilliant in every respect. To-morrow night, "II Trovatore" will be given. At the Wednesday matinee, "Fra Diavolo" will be tho programme, and at night of the same day. tho engagement will close with "La Traviata." Miss Abbott has been receiving much praise for her excellent singing, her voice, it is claimed, being better than it has beeu for years. Tho operas presented during theengagementat the firaud will all be handsomely staged. The management has fixed the matinee priced at 25, CO. and 75 cents. W. W.
