INDIANA AND ILLINOISNEWS Citizens of Peru Compelled to Stay in Bed Sunday to Keep from Freezing.

FiTe Decrees Below Zero eml tbeXatnral Gas Shut Off Ij a Break in the Main Death ef a Child UnderPecaliar Circumstances. INDIANA. Great Discomfort at Peru Caused by the Break In the Natural-Gas Malu. Cpeoal to tbe Indianapolis Journal. Peru, Ind., Jan. 2. Pern pastors preached to meaner congregations to-day, owing to tba fact that most of the membera of their flocks were obliged to be abed all day to keep from freezing to death. The city depends entirely on natural gas for its fuel supply. Last night, 'with tne , mercury fire degrees below zero, the main pipe leading to the city burst, and the gas was turned off. The few people having wood stores managed to keep from freezing to-Jay by burning boxes, boards and old furniture, bnt the majority of tne population were obliged to keep tneir beds. Hoodlums Who Should Be Punished. peial to the Indianapolis Journal. Greensrueg. Jan. 3. This town is making an effort to rid itself of that detestable member of society, the street hoodlum. For some time a decent manor woman could cot pass along certain prominent streets -Lere without being publicly insulted by foul-mouthed youths. In some cases married men congregate along the sidewalks, ' apparently for the sole purpose of amusing ' themselves with the Mconntry-Jake" sport of gnying passers-by. Of late the offenses Lave become so boisterous and frequent that women, who desiro to go shooDing, rattier remain at home than bo forced to " run the gauntlet of insulting rowdies lining toe sidewalks. Tho "gawky" habit has become so common that many youthful acionsof the best families in (Jrcensburg are known to fall in with the tough element in this brazen conduct, borne merchants, who ar-'oke to tbe fact that their business was being injured, as well as the reputation ' and good name of Greensburg jeopardized, got after tbe derelict officers the past week . and eight or ten young men were arrested, some being jailed and others heavily lined. , It is hoped here that this lesson will be Sufficient, m. Mysterious Death of a Child, t-reelal to tie Indianapolis Journal. Milford, Jan. 2. Yesterday, Vera Zim- . mer, aged four, daughter of Henry Zimmer. of New Pans, was bnried here. Sho died 'under peculiar circumstance, and the post niorteiu revealed a fact that will make considerable stir among the medical profession. In the middle of the night she called for a drink of water. Her mother ' gave it to her. and tbe child vomited it up t and began to srow deathly ill. The parents became alarmed, and the father started for tbe doctor, bat before he get his clothes on tbe child died. - Tbe autopsy re- ' vealed the surprising discovery that the child was destitue ot a spleen. The function (if there be any) of the spleen is not known among the medical fraternity, and there have been cases of its removal with' oat any apparent harm to the patient, lias no case has been heard of before where a person was bom without a spleen. Colored Men Celebrate. Frfcial to the Indianapolis Journal. Rockvilxe, Jan. S. The colored people of Kockville celebrated tbe emancipation proclamation at the opera-house last Friday night. Mr. W. H.

Fred Linderman, a Westchester township farmer, reports the discovers of a polishing material on his farm that, on application to cutlery in its natural state, excels anything now on the market for the purpose. The substance lien in veios from two to six feet from the surface, and was found while digging ditches for tiling. Mr. Linderman thinks be has found a valuable material. Bread for Russians, (ferial to the Indianapolis Journal. Columbus. Jan. 3. X meeting of the millers of Franklin. Edinburg. Seymour and this city was held at tbe Belvedere Hotel Friday night, at which it was agreed to send to the famine-stricken district of Kussia two car-load of flour.

Deserted His Crippled Wife, fcrecial to tLe Irdianapolla Journal. Wabasit, Jan. 5. Jordan Speelman'a wife is an estimable woman, but very unfortunate. Besides being a cripple, her husband, who had worked this winter barely enough to keep bis family from starving, has deserted her, as he says, never to return. When found by neigh.bors the mother and children were freezing and almost starving. Minor Notes. Few families in Lafayette have escaped from the grip. Citizens of New Albany are much interested in a war between the city and the gas companies. John Maxwell, a wealthy farmer of Vigo county, fell, intoxicated, into a ditch with his horse and was kicked to death. , John Brumfield started to explode a giant fire-cracker, at Terra Haute, but the thing went oft in bis hand, tearing off several of his ringers. Tbe United States commissioner at Lafayette discharged Joseph Eacock. who was charged by his brother. George J. Eacock. with having opened the latter's mail. The brother admitted the charge, but claimed it was by mistake. Word was received yesterday morning at Crawfordsvflle of the death of Mrs. Martha Smith, wife of Key. O. A. Smith, the Presbyterian minister at Evansville. Mrs Smith was the daughter of Joaoph Binlord, of Crawtordsville, and the remains will be taken there for interment. George Dawkins and William Stewart, two farmers near Lafayette, met on the publie highway and fought over latriily matters. Dawkins had along-bladed knife nd gave Stewart-probably fatal stabs. Dawkins'a wife attempted to save Stewart, and was knocked down and kicked out of the way by ber husband. It Is said that tbe women were at the bottom of the trouble. ILLINOIS. Impending Strike of Three Thousand! Employes of the Elgin Watch Company. Elgi v, Jan. 2. Three thousand operatives of the Elgin National Watch Company stand ready to strike and only await the signal to quit work. Several hundred skilled workmen in two departments walked out yesterday and unless all signs fail the

strike will become general. Nothing else was talked of last night. Groups of men met on every corner, despito the bitter cold, and discussed the sanation. Two weeks ago there were rumors that a general cut-down was contemplated by the management. These rnmors were verified on- the pay-day following, when the employes found their wages decreased from 15 to GO per cent. The employes of the jewelry room at once quit work. They were then told by the oilicials that the reduction would be made np in the next pay-roll and that hereafter the old scale would be in force, but they are not satisfied with this promise and the one sentiment expressed is that a strike is inevitable. The assertion is also made that 2.S00 employes of the Waltbam Watch Company are organized and abont to strike on account cf a recent reduction in their wages. Built of Indiana Stone. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Champaign, Jan. 3. Work on the new natural history building at the University of Illinois is deferred for the present on account of unfavorable weather. The basement story, of gray stone from Bedford, Ind., is completed. Tbe three -remaining stories will be of compressed brick. This structure, when completed, will be tha most complete and thoroughly equipped of its kind. Its dimensions are 05xlG0 feef. Tbe contract for its erection was let to Valentine Jobst, ot Peoria, for $00,000. Mr. Jobst agrees to forfeit &5.000 if the building is not ready for occupancy by Sept. 1. Prominent Odd-Fellow Dead. FpeeJal to the Indianapolis Journal. Decatur, Jan. S. Bng.-Gen. George W. Patterson, on tbe staff of Gen. J. C. Underwood, commander of the Patriarch i Militant, and one of the best-known Odd-fellows in Illinois, died of paralysis this morning, aged forty-eight years. The body will lie in etate until Tuesday afternoon, when the funeral will occur. Deceased was ex-deputy postmaster. Tried to Pass Forged Check. Special to the Indianapolis JoarnaL Danville, Jan. 3. A young man claiming to be S. A. Carter, of Paris, 111., was arrested last night for attempting to pass a forged check of $10 on Pixley & Co. The check was drawn on the First National Bank, ot Paris, and bore the signature of tbe J. &. S. Colbert Milling Company, of Chrisman. ! Brief Mention. John W. Taylor was killed at a street crossing in Decatur. John Hill, one time chief of police at Peoria, committed suicide by shooting himself in the bead. Mathew Winner, aged sixty -eight years, the leading miller of Casey, died Iriday night of la grippe. Tho drillers for gas at Champaign have about given np all hope of striking the much-desired article The snow-storm in Bloomington was welcome, beoause it "laid"vthe dust that was heavy in the highways and streets. A strike in tho only blast furnace running at tbe Joliet rolling-mills on the tirst of the year throws out ot work 250 men. The New Year's foot-ball game between Decatur and Springlield elevens was played in a snow-storm and resulted in victory for Springlield by a score of 6 to 0. The' Bell Hons at Casey, lately man aged by Albert Bell, will change bauds to day. Henry Tyler, late manager of the Martinsville Hotel, will assume control. Company E, Fourth Regiment I. N. O., elected C H. Rudy tirst lieutenant and Frank Baer first sergeant at the meeting in Mattoon. Captain Emery Andrews and all other officers were re-elected. Mrs. Bailey, wife of Frederick Bailey, of Rautonf. who was brough to Champaign from the insane asylum and escaped in the night, walking in the middle ot the night to her husband's home in Bantoul. a distance of fourteen miles, has been returned to Kankakee. ' SEYO YOUNG FIENDS. Young 3Ian Forced to Witness Repeated Askanlts on His Wife bj a Gang of Brutes. New York, Jan. a Seldom within the annals of a New York police court has there been such a revolting case heard as in Ybrkville court to-day. William Parrell. twenty-one years old. who lives with bis newlywedded wife, Mary, aged nineteen, at No. C08 West Fifty-fourth street, told the courtthat they were awakened at 2 o'clock this morning by some one breaking into their apartments. On the Instant seven young toughs rushed into their bedroom, pulled him out of bed and threatened him with death if he made any outcry. He broke away irom them, however, and ran out to tho street in his night-dress, shouting for help. Hearing screams from his wife's room, ho rushed back to her assistance, only to find her struggling in the embrace of one of the thugs. Beforo he could reach her side, however, he was seized by several of the othersi who held him and compelled him to witness a sight that cannot be described in words, as one after another of the young scoundrels ravished his wife. The poor woman fonght desperately, but her assailants beat ber into insensibility and accomplished their purposes. Policeman Urannon, of the West Forty-seventh-street station, now entered the house when the ruffians fled, all escaping but one, whom tbe officer succeeded in capturing. He proved to be Richard Kane, twenty years old. of No. 7C0 Eleventh avenue. The officer then rsng for an ambulance from tho Presbyterian Hospital, and the surgeon who accompanied it found the woman very badly injured, besides suffering greatly from nervous prostration. She declined to go to the hospital, and was attended at ber home. She has been in an exceedingly critical condition all day. Justice Ryan committed Kane for examination on Wednesday next. His six accomplices are not yet known, but tbe police believe thai all of them will be under arrest before the day set for Kane's examination.

SERMON BY THE GOVERNOR

Ho Occupies the Pnlpit at Plymouth Cliurcb,GiYiogTwo Eloquent Sermons. Tribute to Sir. McCuIIoch-RsT. Bnchtel's Idvice for the New Year Talk on Judgment Day Episcopal Church i a' Indiana. Governor Chase preached at Plymouth Church yesterday morning and evening. Taking as his text the thirty-second verse of the fourth chapter of Luke, the Governor said: ' "While the Savior was preaching at Nazareth, among his own countrymen, his own fellow-citizens, so to speak, it is recordod of them, 'And they were astonished at His doctrine, for His word was with power.' "What should I say at this moment with regard to the great bereavement that has befallen this community and this congregation especially! I cannot say more kindly things than those that have already been expressed by so many orators, nor can I say them so well. This much is left to me: I can and do indorse the eloquent tribute to the memory of Mr. Mo Cullocb, whose life was a continual benediction to the helpless . and tbe hopeless. That suggests a thought: I will not ask to have anything mure said of me than that my life was a continual struggle to alleviate the condition of others. It does not seem possible there is a more laudable ambition for a Christian man beyond this. It is not possible that a man can rear a greater monument to himself than to be the imitator of the Savior. "It is not my purpose this morning to dwell upon these themes. They have been subjects for discourse for almost two thousand years, and have not yet wdrn a. way. It is because of your hope and because you have tbe Holace that comes by way of the gospel of Jesus Christ that has sent countless armies beyond the river fnll of hope and joy that you come here this morning, a follower of Him ot whom it was said, 'The common people heard Him gladly.' A few months ago we had a lecturer in this city, and he bad one of the most magnificent audiences ever collected. That audience listened with rapture for two hours to a tale of wonderful adventure. They were carried over a period of twenty-three years. But nothing moved that audience more than the sweet sentence at the close when Stanley, standing beforo them, declared that Africa would never become the home of the white man, but that there were children playing in the streets of Indianapolis who would live to see millions of the dusky sons of the Dark Continent become the devoted followers of Him of whom it was sung by the angels, 'peace on earth, good will to men.1 "The audience could scarcely restrain themselves, and no applause was heartier during the two hours than followed 'this sentiment borrowed from tho holy writings of the apostles. It was a long way to travel from a poor house in Wales to stand before the most cultured audiences of the old world and the new, to be tbe object of millions of eyes and of hondredsof millions of thoughts, because more were thinking of tbe great traveler than could ever be uble tohearhim. What was it that drow Stanley sof It was a long stride from the west of Scotland, from tho Hebrides, to stand where Livingstone stands in the heart of the Christian world. A man devoted to the cause of humanity is willing to deprive himself of the society be was so fitted to enjoy, and absolutely bury himself away in th Dark Continent and give the example of a third of a century of splendid living. ' "When Stanley tipped his hat and said, 'Mr. Livingstone, 1 believe,' and Livingston with courtly Christian grace replied. Stanley said of this meeting that be had never thought about being a Christian. God sent him among the dusky sons of . Africa to hear about Jesusf No. To hear arguments that would havepower over his soulf No. What was it. then, that sentStanley from the old life to tbe new, and has endeared him to tho hearts of the Christian world! He says, and let him tell the story, it was the life that Livingstone lived that made him recover himself and go oyer this whole ground and come out on tbe side of Christ. Beneath the rays of the African sun, surrounded by the millions of whom he spoke, he declares he consecrated himself to tbe service of Christ and became a Christian man. "Did Livingstone do any more than yon can do; than you are able to accomplish within the circle of your life! No; God in His wisdom, in His loving mercy, has placed it within the reach of every denizen of time, of every mortal who hears tho truth concerning Christ Jesus to stand up for Him and to live for Him. Individuals sometimes question Scripture, because they cannot understand the faith that can remove a mountain. In the morning of this century there was not a missionary in the world; in the morning of this century there was a poor cobbler in England. Ho had bis family to support, but amid these surroundings thero was an npheavel iu his bosom more potent than that which buried Pompeii and llurenlaneum by the overflow of dust, and mud. and ashes from the areat crater of Vesuvius. This poor cobbler felt as though the world was lost. Ho drew upon a map with charcoal a picture of the world and discovered be could cover with his two hands the part that bad beard of Christ. He believed it was bis mission to go to India. But what was he to dof There was not in all the Christian world a single sympathizer with William Carey, this poor cobbler. He was met with the declaration that if God wanted the heatbon converted He would attend to it without the help of William Carey. He was ignorant us well as poor, and he knew if he was to bo a servant of the Almighty he must master the languages. He mastered the languages; mastered tbe prejudices against missionary work. But when be got ready to sail to a distant province of bisown country, lo, and behold! he could not go out under the ensign of tbe anion jack. The East India Company was afraid of that one man, who went out as a missionary to four hundred millions of of Hindoos; afraid of one man, whose standard was the cross of Christ. He had to go out under a Danish liag to enjoy the privilege of speaking of the claims of Jesus Christ in that distant quarter of the world. "To my mind that is more than would be the overturning of Csrmel nnd throwing it into the Mediterranean. Tho heroism that comes to a man whose faith is in God is nometbing akiti to that borrowed of God. It is God-given strength and Uod-given wisdom. In thirty years William Carey was enabled t translate tbe Scriptures into twenty-four different dialects and languages. "When Jesus says 'take my yoke upon yon, for my yoke is easy and my burden is light,' why do we not do sof Let ns never forget tbe goodness ot God. You know that Scottish youths are easily taught divine things; that tbe mother, when she packs tbe boy's box to go abroad, puts the Bible in last, so that It will be tbe first thing he sees when he opens it. One once wandered away, and in his travels was taken captive and made a slave by tho Turks. Jb or eighteen years he was in slavery, but one night some sailors on an Enf lish man-of-war heard the strains of 'Old luudred' come out over tbe water. The song was sung by the poor prisoner and it brought bis release, we, too, are prisoners, bnt we will be released and sing the songs of gladness with the ransomed in heaven.'' A Xew Tear's Sermon. The Rev. H. A. BuchteL pastor of tbe Cen-tral-avenuo Methodist Episeopal Church, preached a New Year's sermon lsst night to a large congregation at his cbnrcb. Before announcing bis text Mr. Bnchtel read the first and ninetieth Psalms and parts of the third and fourth chapters of Philipplans. Tho text was taken from the twelfth Terse of the ninetieth Psalm and Phllippians iii. 3 and iv. 4. "At Christmas time," ho said, "we are accustomed to wish our. friends a merry Christmas and on the first day of the new year happy New Tear. The entire Bible is in harmony with these two themes, especially in the saying 'Peace on earth, good will to man.' "Bnt how little is man able to live out those greetings unless ho be constantly en

dowed with fresh equipment of purpose, resolve and inspired motive, if we become assailed with egotism, selfishness, blind desire for personal advancement, with ntter indillerence for tbe elevation and uplifting of our neighbor, it prolits us but little. Yet wo need not keep in such condition. God is so ranch interested in our well being and our ultimate salvation that He will not allow the least of His creatures to perish if they but stretch out their bands to Him. It is good character that- keens u in line. If we start the day with a determination to make it a fresh eauipment of divine grace

we will surely succeed, in the lower grades of Hie uod has ordered a fixedness of condition, and all the power and skill of man cannot change it. We cannot make the white-oak red. nor can we ehange granite to sandstone. Many students of nntnre are fatalists because they exalt out of ail proportion the inliuenccs which dominate in the lower ranges of life. We can mako the quality of our life just what we want it to be. - "Twenty years ago there were two men who were regular attendants npon the services of the cbnrcb. of which this is the child. Both-were equally endowed mentally, -physically and intellectually. But. in time their courses in life began to separate. The one became a valiant worker for Christ and a saver of many souls. Tbe other I visited this afternoon in one of the hospitals of this city, a total wreck, mentally, physically, intellectually, morally, spirituallya victim of delirium tremens. Each mapped out bis course and 'each has attained the climax of his sphere. Oh. my brother, what is your ambition! Which course have you planned in your mind! Martin Luther, .in his effort to turn the world to Christianity, hud no better chance than any of you. God will put the stress of severity on all of us sometime or other, and if our character is not able to withstand it we are lost. Yon can't get the dross out of gold without first subjecting it to the tire. We are not placed hero on earth to attain mero Ehysical perfection like a line auimal. We avo a loftier, grander-purpose. We must, live as a witness to the church of God. That is the great responsibility of every Christian. No other institution will outlive it. It is our rock of salvation. It is the ark of our safety, and we must Oeo to it or we perish. A mighty flood-tide will come and sweep away all the monuments of human invention. Lot tho church of Christ will stand high uod dry unto the day of judgment, it is the house not built with hand, eternal in the heavens, and all tho gates of hell shall not prevail against it. We are vacillating, uncertain creatures. To-day we profoss Christ and bim glorified, while to-morrow we ure denying him like Judas. If we do this we deserve to be put on the list with Judas, and not with the faithful John. "We mnst improve and cultivate our earthly friendships, as well as our friendship with Christ. We must endeavor to exerciso an inliuence for good, and not be merely satisfied with tbe condition of our own souds. Why do so many thousands go constantly down to perdition! , It is not because they want to. is it! Not because tboy prefer to! No; it is because they are literally starving for elevating friendship for some helping hand to reach ont and save them from sinking. Their foundation is hay, stubble and sand, and when once they are standing on it they go down rapidly unless a passing friend lifts them on the rock above. Christ is that rock of onr salvation, a rock of ages cleft for you. cleft , for me. Will von refuse to cling to it!" A Splendid Showing. Yesterday morning Bishop Knickerbacker officiated ' at Grace Cathedral. As it was the first Sunday of the new year, he gave a brief resume of tbe growth of the church in Indiana during bis episcopate. It was shown that twenty-three new churches had been built, at a cost of $152,5C0; twelve reotories, at a cost of $37,800; four parish houses, at a cost of $14,200, three school buildings, at a cost of $12,000; : 'with an endowment for one of $10,000. Lots had been purchased iu five towns, at a cost of flJOO, on which it is proposed to build churches during the present year. The aged and infirm cJergy fund has been increased $2,?uo. Cash had been contributed for the church borne, to tho amount of ?4.CO0; for endeymcnt of the diocese 940.000, making a" grand total of $31C,CG0. The services of the church had been permanently established iu twenty counties not before occupied, with services more or less regularly in ten other counties. The clergy have increased from twenty-fivo to forty-six in number; lay-readers from eighteen to thirty: candidates for the ministry, from three to eleven; Sunday-school teachers, from S97 to 445; Sundayschool scholars, from 3.GM to and communicants, lrom S.SS4 to 0.207. In the same time 1,222 adults bad been baptized and 3,164 infants, making a total of 4.3S9; cnufirmates,'3,2l& There was contributed for diocesan missions $K,y23. an annual average of $2,215; for the diocesan church-building fund, 3.000, an annual average of C25. -Thev annual average contribution for current expenses of parishes amounted to $1,316. It is expected to build six churches the present year and to raise the endowment to $50,000. The Bishop congratulated th'e congregation on tbe steady and encouraging progress tho church . was making in the diocese, and nrged the cultivation of the missionary spirit and contributions for all mission work. "The Judgment Day." "The Judgment Day" was the subjeot of Rev. W. F. Taylor's sermon at th First Presbyterian Church last night. His text was from the twenty-seventh verse of the ninth chapter of Hebrews: " It is appointed unto all men once to die and after this the Judgment. ; "I have for several Sunday evenings past," said Mr. Taylor, "called your attention to these things, which must come to puss to the doctrine of final things. There are many who wish there were no judgment. But if Scripture teaches the fact of the judgment day. it is sin. it is more ; than that, it is folly, to refuse to look at this fact. That Scripture teaches there will be a judgment this one passage is enough to prove. Some ' hold otherwise. After death, what! A second probation! No. Tbe judgment. After death, what! Happineas after that! No, the judgment. Face this fact we must all appear beforo the judgment Peat of Christ to give an account of the deeds done in the body. To be sure Scriptnre does teach that there is a present spiritual judgment. I do not deny; hut rather atiirm, there is a present judgment. Yon and I are jndged, and. in one sense, punished in this present lift for our misdeed. 1 do not deny, but aftirm rather, that there has been many a judgment here passed upon ancient cities. Judgment was visited upon Sodom, and 'lyre, and Jerusalem, and to-night we may anticipate still a judgment of nations of to-day possibly of this city of, ours. Many and many a time iu the ctmrse of tho world's history have been seen the handwriting that was upon tbe wall in Babylon: 'Thou baat been weighed in the balance and found wanting.' 'Notwithstanding the fact that there is a E resent and spiritual judgment, thero has een a day aupoiuted in which will be judged the quick and the dead; when all men shall stand before tbe throne of God and give an account of the deeds done in this present life. Let ns face the great fact. There is a coming judgment. I wonld have you know not only the fact ot the judgment, but who is tbe judge. Plainly does Scripture answer this question. The judge is Jesus Christ himself. God judgeta no man; He bath committed all judgment to the Son to Him who understands human nature. There is tbe one hope in this darkness that He who will be the judge is thoroughly acquainted with those whom He is to judge, Would you not rather be judged by the mercitul and loving Savior than by a feliow.mortal by one who sins! It is only tbe sin-bating Christ who can exercise mercy. As man, as God. He unites In himself the elements of sympathy and justice, and tbe Judge of all the earth will, indeed, do right. "What is tbe object of this judgment! Is it merely to ascertain what men are and the Iivj's they have led! Not this. There is a threofold object: to manifest character, to separate men. tbe righteous from the wicked, and impose npon them the retribution, or punishment, or reward that they deserve. In a book of tbe Schonberg-Cot-ta family a story is told of one who became a Methodist preacher. He was converted because of a dream. He dreamed that he stood before the throne of God and beheld a great multitude of men comingnp for judgment. The judge sat speechless. Before bim was tbe book of life, and men came opening their very- garments and roinpairmg their hearts with that book of life. Looking into their own hearts thev compaired them with tbe divine standard

and would then go to the right or left. It was a vision of a sacred truth. It was not neocssary, in this dream, that tbe judge should ask what life they had led or what acts they had done. It was all written in their hearts. "Memory recalls tbe life we live. Memory never des. Conscience will approve sentence and acknowledge it to be jnst. Do yon ask as to the reality of this judgment! Bear in mind the law cf memory, of conscience and of character. Note tbat to-day you are forming that character; and when you appear before the judgment-seat it will be in answer to that character you have stamped npon your heart. Note all tbe teachings of the word of God that man shall be judged according to his works, and we shall conclude there is a judgment for Christians according as they have lived. As your life has resulted in good works so will your station be high or low in the kingdom of heaven. " "But the great judgment at the end of the age of tbe millennium ah, that is judgment of a fearful day, a day when there will be no light, but gloom alone.. When in Home I was so fortunate as to see Angelo's great picture of tho 'Judgment.' It was at tho Sistine Chapel, in tbe month of July, that I saw tbat famous picture. It represents Christ and Mary who means so much to the Romanists turning away from the scene and leaving them to the just judgment of the Christ upon His throne. No gentle woman's voice pleading for the sinner! It is too late. The time has come for separation between the saved and the lost, There is a judgment day, and before that judgment day all must stand. Perhaps there is a way of escape. It is by taking refuge under the cross of Christ, Remember that He died upon tbe cross that He might acquire the right of delivering men when they came up before Him: that He might acquire the right of epeaking the word of pardon, of extending His armsof love and throwing them around all who believe in Him. Admit tbe love of Jesus Christ, aud for you tho judgment day will have no terrors."

The days when a girl isked every man she met for a necktie for ber crazy-quilt are passed. She no longer collects bis handkerchiefs to make curtains for her windows, and oven his match-box is compatatively safe. Bnt now the latest fad is to ask the men for their old evening gloves. "What does she do with them!" the uninitiated quite naturally ask. For "dream f loves." is tbe reply. This it the way of it: ler hands, perhaps, still retain some cf the summer tan; perhaps they are rough because she bad helped iu tbe housework, or they may be chapped from being chilled. Whatever tbe cause, tbe remedy prescribed is "grease and uloves." Now our dear girl finds her own gloves are too tight for this purpose, and then, generally, she wears brs until they are quite useless. So she thinks she will borrow her brother's evemug gloves, since be casts his away after the first appearance of soil. Then my lady thought it would he so mnch nicer were she to have his gloves to protect her hands, bis gloves to tuek nnder her pretty cheek, his gloves to dream upon. Hence the origin of the name and the fad. "It leads them all." is the general reply of druggists when asked about the merit or sales of Hood's Sarsaparilla.

THE FIGHT IS WAXING WABM

Board of Agriculture Will Probably Select a Kew Fair-Gronnd3 Site. , Ucnon Will Not Build a Yiadoet at Thirtieth Street LIvsIt Fiffht Coming Broad Ripple Road an Indefinite Enterprise. The selection of the Yoss farm for a new fair grounds location is not yet by any means a settled fact.. As stated in the Journal a few days ago, the Monon Railroad Company a year ago proposed to build a viaduct over the tracks at Thirtieth street provided the fair grounds should be located on theVoss farm. When it came to draw up tbe contract the other day the State Board of Agriculture insisted on such a provision being inserted, and attorney Butler acted accordingly. The Monon at once claimed that tho present management of the road bad no cognizance of such a proposition, and would not adhere to it Judge Field, solicitor of tho road, however, promised to lay the matter beforo tbe general manager at Chicago, and has just returned from his trip. Last evening he was seen by a Journal reporter. "1 laid tbe matter before the general manager while in Chicago," said he, "and as 1 expected he refused to enter into any such arrangement. The viaduct would cost $-5,000, and it would not pay tbe company to expend tbat amount ot monr. l nave not heard anything from tho Board of Agriculture, aud do not know what action it proposes in the matter." Several days ago a movement was started looking toward the raising of an amount by subscription to pay for a viaduct, but from all appearances nothing has been done. It was asserted that as there are several gontlemen who own property in tbe neighborhood of the Voss farm, which would' be greatly benefited by the location of the fair grounds and the building of an electrio line, tbat they would make up tbo money and enter iuto an agreement with the railroad company to build the viaduct in order to hold the fair grounds, but they do not seem to have been inclined that way. Everything now indicates that a new location will bo selected for tho fair grounds. Tho State Board of Agriculture meets again to-day and the deal for tbe Yoss farm will be declared oil. unless the Monon agrees to build the viaduct or some of tbe property-owners come to time. Tho board will msiut that tho agreement of the Monon made a year ago bo lived up to. This simply means that tbe war is on again. If the Voss farm is knocked out Albert Wishard will be on hand in the interest of the Shimer farm and the C, 11. & D. railroad, tho Big Four and the Miller farm will again press the latter's suit, and the owners ot other farms will again "walk up to the captain's desk." The light will be lively and the session of the board will be interesting. The liroad Ripple Project It is a pretty hard matter to speculate on what the recent agitation regarding the building of an electrio line to Broad Ripple by the old Broad Ripple Rapid Transit Company will amount to. or whether or not a road such as is proposed will ever be built The matter is now in a state of great nncertainty. Dr. Cal Light secretary of the old company, was about the Denison House corridors yesterday afternoon, where he expected to hold a conference with Mr. Jay Voss and others concerning.the matter. Dr. Light said to a Jonrnal reporter that the Broad Ripple company has not submitted auy proposition to tho Edison General Electric Company, bnt that the propositions mentioned in the Journal the other day came direct from General Manager Beggs to the Broad Ripole company through the former's attorneys, Messrs. Peelle Xc Taylor. "1 told the attorneys," said Dr. Light, "that if Mr. Beggs wonld submit a proposition to operate the road and would furnish au acceptable bond tbat he would do so. that 1 would present the proposition to the people who own property along tho proposed line and 6ee what I could do toward raising the requisite amount of money. Friday I received a long personal letter from Mr. Beggs. in which he talked very fairly, and 1 have uo doubt that if we can arrange a' meeting with him tbat some agreement can be reached whereby the road can be built "One of tbe great troubles," continued Dr. Light, "in getting through au enterprise of this kind is with the people most directly interested those who own property along the route. When the enterprise seems to bo dead they talk very volubly about what they would be willing to do. and when there seems some prospect of carrying it through they won't do anything, because they reason that the road will be built anyway without their being called upon to spend any money. Thore are several men who own property along that route which would be doubled in value by tho building of a double-track electric line, yet they sit with their bands in their pockets." Dr. Light will try and make arrangements in a few days to have Mr. Beggs visit this city, and if such a conference ih held something definite may be decided upon. r m "Jag" Dance. Detroit Tribune.
