WORK OF THE ENCAMPMENT
Designs for Reviewing Standi Discussed by the Committee. Colonel Lilly Apain Denouncer the ForcedMarch" SchemIowa Department Various Note. The committee on grand stands met last night, with S. F. Hayes chairman. Bids for the construction of the grand stand for the reviewing officers of the parade were referrod to the executive officers of the board. Albert Gall and Eastman, Schleicher &, Lee submitted designs for the grand stand, the latter submitting two, the second of which was referred to the executive officers as the choice of the committee. It is in Corinthian style, with six pillars, center . surmounted , by ' eagle, spread of wings six feet. Columns on either side surmounted by American flags, stand being twenty.eiabt- feet high from ground, six feet from floor to ground. Dr.Bochananand idejsrs.Bartermann and Bennett were appointed a committee to see about nse of chairs in Tomlinson Hall. The price of the 1.400 seats on the stand was placed at 81.5.) eaob. Will Us HUtorlo Instrument. Major Robert H. Hendersbot, the drummer boy of the Rappahannock, was among tho visitors at headquarters, yesterday, to get information of the camo tires of encampment week. He'is coming here to enteitain the veterans without cost, and looking for no reward except what the pleas nreof being with the old soldiers and con tributing to their enjoyments will give him. He will have with him his son, J. C, the fifer, and his daughter. Miss Daisy, who beats the bass drum. The Major will nse the drum given him by Horace Greeley, from whom be hs a letter of high recommendation. The letter is one of a package the Major always carries with him, in the event . it is necessary to establish his identity as the "original drummer boy of the Rappahannock.'1 Among the contributors to this paokage were Abraham Lincoln, General Grant. ex-President Harrison. F. E. Spinner, Generals Hqrlbert and Burnside, and others prominent in the history of the war. The Major.when eleven years old, inlSGl, passed through this city with Company C, of the Ninth Michigan, on Its way to Louisville. In July. 1SG2. he was taken prisoner at Murfreesboro, and upon being released joined the Eighth Michigan on the Rappahannock, serving with that regiment through the war. loww Department Committee. The subcommittee on receptions of the departments have a doty to perform that has never been undertaken at any other encampments. They a recto see that every thing is made pleasant for the officers and delegates whom they will meet at the Union Station and escort to their headquarters. It will be required, too, of these committees that their respective departments have no trouble in goingabout Indianapolis, and that they attend them to the reception at Tomlinson Hall, Monday evening of the encampment week. This will require more or less preparation, and the committee that is to attend the Iowa officers and delegates is among those that want to get their programmes arranged early. Ot this committee M. G. MoLain is chairman, the other members being Rev. D. R. Lucas, D. D Noble C. Butler, Grafton Johnson, Judge W. A. Woods, C. S. Denny and Lucian A. Foote, the last named of Crawfordsville. 'lho committee will meet Wednesday evening, at 8 o'olock, in Room 13? Denison House. Mr. MoLain has written to Department Commander Schaller, of Iowa, to ascertain when he and his stair, with the Iowa delegates, exDect to reach the city. Low Kates to Begin Enrlier. The granting of the one-cent-a-mlle rate to the enoampment, not to become efteotive before Sept. 3, was a matter of some concern to the citizens' executive board, as it shutout the naval Teterans and others who desired the low rate previous to that time. The request, therefore, was made to have the rate go into'' eflect the week beginning Aug. 23, and this Chairman Lazarns, of the committee on transportation, informs the board has been granted. All the representatives of the Central Traffic Association except one at once expressed willingness to have the rate fixed on the August date, and when the matter was explaiued to him he, also, voted for it. so the change was made unanimously. This makes the one cent a mile good from Aug. 23 to the 5th of September, coming, and until the 16th of September returning, applring to all points east of Chicago. The Western Passenger Association is to tako up the encampment rate question again this month, and favorable action is looked for. Forced March" Again Denounced. The "forced march" scheme has been condemned time and again by the citizens' ex ecntive board. The board not only has nothing to do with it. but discountenances it in the strongest terms. The following, in this connection, explains itself: Dr. E. S. Elder, Medical Director. Indianapolis, Ind : Dear Sir and Comrade The arrangements of the medical corps must contemplate no expense nor embrace any services for cases arising irom tho forced march, advertised to be held In this 'city at the time of the National Encampment. This Is a private money-making scheme, of which 1 BtrouKly disapprove. I can see la it none but harmful results, and I regard it as a very objectionable ntt'alr. which' huouM have no manner of countenance from our organization. I have publicly warned veterans aeainst it, and must now irlve fair notice to all who heedlessly risk their health, perhaps their lives, in a physical contest which few of them are prepared to enduro, that they cannot, in case of unfortunate results, become a burden upon the people of. Indianapolis. Very truly yours, in F C. and L., Eli Lilly, Chairman. Will Increain Fitclliltee. Postmaster Thompson is making arrangements to handle expeditiously the increase of mail and to meet the enlarged demand for stamps during the encampment. He will have extra carriers, and if the collection of mall makes it necessary. will also add to that force. He will have two more general delivery windows opened and several places at the office where stamps can be purchased. He will instruct stamp agents throughout the city to inont forget that every thing used in making Absolutely the Best:"

crease their supplies of stamps, wrappers, envelopes and postal cards. There will be a large increase in the outgoing paper mail, as officers, delegates and visitors will send to their homes thousands of pa-' pers giving accounts of the encampment. Agen Army Nurse Coming. In a letter to Mrs. Thomas L. Sullivan, as chairman of the ladies' reception com mit tee, Mrs. Eleanor Kansom writes from Los Angeles. Cal that it is her purpose to visit the enoampment if her physical conditiou will permit ber to nndergo the fatigue of travel. Mrs. Hansom is seventy-eight years of age, and was one of a company of twenty-five army nurses who left here in February. lb"3. to go South. She met with an accident some weeks ago, dislocating her left wrist and breaking the arm. She is a delegate to the national convention of the W. C. T. U. at Chicago, and alternate to the convention of the V. 11. C. here. She left Indiana in 1870 for California. Marlon County G A. R. Dattallon. At a meeting of the officers of the several posts in this city it was agreed to have the posts of Marion county turn out as a battalion in the parade, the post having the largest membership being accorded the colonel, the secoud in membership the lieutenant colonel, and soon. This will give George H. Thomas Post the colonelcy; Chapman Post the lieutenant colonel: Anderson Post the senior major, and Gordon Post the second major, and the next in size the third major. The battalion should turn out 1.500 strong. A Suggestion Worth Considering. To the Editor of the maianaioUs Journal Heading your editorial "Personal Conrtesy".in the Sunday issue in regard to directing strangers and answering their questions during encampment week I would suggest a plan whereby our visitors would know whom to address and who, by their "ign." would be an invitation to ask any question under the sun and receive acini answer. It has successfully been tried in other cities. The exeoutive committee of the G. A. K. should have printed, either on card or ribbon, the following "I'm a citizen of Indianapolis." These could be distributed among businessmen, clerks, local Grand Army men and citizens in general, to be worn on the coat lapel during the entire week. Tho coat would be insignificant and the comfort to the "old vets" immense. It would also leave undisturbed those few who would not don the card. Indianapolis, Aug. 6. Citizen. Kncimpinent Notes. 0 Major Howe Post, Haverhill, Mass., will have one hundred men at tho encampment. The committee on illumination will meet at A o'clock this afternoon at the offices of the citizens' exeoutive board. The headquarters of the Thirty-sixth Indiana will be at No. 125 North Alabama street. The regimental reunion will be held there. The railroads centering here have begun to use liberally the advertising columns of newspapers throughout this and other States, calling attention to the very cheap rate to the encampment. There is a demand for boarding houses along the route of the parade. It isdlffionlt for the citizens' executive board to meet all requests in that respect, as there are comparatively few houses of the kind on the line. Chairman Walker, of the committee on receptions, has received the aeoeptanoes of all out of town appointed on the subcommittees to attend the departments. They express great interest in the encampment and a zeal to make it a success. Tbe reunion of the Fifty-third Regiment. Indiana Veteran Volunteer Infantry, will be held at the Brunswick Hotel, on Circle street, on the first day of the encampment. All comrades of that regiment are earnestly requested to be present.

AT THE RELIGIOUS CAMPS
State Sanday-School Convonlion Assembles at Bethany Park. LinM of Work That Have Keen FollowedAsscmbly Lectures A Qaict Bay at Camp Acton. After the departure of the last of the Sunday visitors, early Monday morning, Bethany Park settled down to tho enjoyment of another beautiful, qniet day. The grounds were by no means deserted, however, for the State Sunday-school convention, of which this is the second day, drew largM numbers. Among the morning arrivals were Prof. A. H. Benton and Prof. D. C. Brown of Irvington. Mr. Joseph Franklin of Bedford. O. S. Heed of Noblesville. Mr. Albert Cole of Indianapolis and Mr. Knox. Taylor of Bloommgton. 111. The morning devotions were unusually well attended and were led by Miss Lois White. Dr. Lucas was heard at 9. in the sixth and last of his talks to preachers. His subject, yesterday morning, was 'Pulpit Sensationalism' and he spoke in a particularly earnest style. Dr. Lucas said that what is called pulpit sensationalism is creating sensation for notoriety's sake. This is wrong. It is dore, first, by announcing a subject in a sensational way! second, bv saying odd things, such as are indulged in by Sam Jones inhisiftang phrases; third. by peculiar actions on the part of ministers of the gospel. - The sensationalism produced by the statement of truth, however, is a good thing in that it impresses what one hears on the memory. The State Sunday-school convention opened at 9:30, Mr. T. J. Legg, State Sunday-school evangelist, read his report, which was long and covered a great deal of ground. Three lines of work were carried out dnring the past year: First A system of co-operation among the schools, and embracing a system of reporting, whereby a complete census of the work can be had ouoe a quarter. Second The establishment of teachers meetings aud normal training classes for an elementary Bible oenrse. Third The multiplication of Sunday schools, forty-seven having been organized during the year. Mr. Legg submitted the following resolutions: 1. That the three lines of work be continued. 2. That county institutes be held as often and as 6oon as possible. 3. That every Sunday school be requested to indioate at once the amount of money it is willing to pay. 4. That the Christian Endeavor sooieties of the State be invited to contribute to the State Sunday sohool work. 5. That this association request the Bethany Assembly board to arrange a reading course to be known as the Bethany Assembly Heading Course, comprisinga home and foreign missionary department, Sunday school and Christian Enaeavordepartment. ( Mr. Joseph Franklin, of Bedford, Ind., president of the association, was then heard in a brief address upon the ' work to be done in the Sunday-school. The assembly lecture was delivered by H. L. Willett, of Dayton. O. That Mr. Willett had made an impression upon his hearers in his Sunday morning sermon was demonstrated by the number who were again his attentive listeners on Monday. He was enthusiastically received, and the audience signihed its hearty appreciation and sympathy by freqnent applause. Mr. Willett took for his subject "New Continents," and the address proved one of the finest of the course. Mr. Willett commenced with the disoovery of Ameriea by Columbus, and spoke ot the ditcculties surrounding the undertaking and the objects which inspired it. These were not only a desire to tind out how the H world -was constructed, but also to subhMiii',- J A- ! ., .. jngttioauii io possess, iiereviewea urieuy the exploration of this new country by discoverer, merchant and missionary, until it had beoom the most wonderful in the world. From the growth of the country the speaker passed to the growth of the race. As there are four periods in the growth of manro there aro four in the growth of a race: 1. A period of measurement. 2. One of harmony. 3. One of investigation. 4. One of purpose. In treating of the fourth period Mr. Willett said: "As to what the purpose of a nation is, take our own. What is America for? It is to give and to teach -human liberty and righteousness in the political, social and individual life. In literature, too, we find these four periods: Dickens setting forth the measurements of men's lives, Hugo contrasting and comparing them, George Eliot giving the causes, while in the Bible is to be found the answer to the last, viz.: The purpose of one's life. x . At 2 in the afternoon devotional eier--ciss were resumed, consisting of songs and informal talks. At this meeting the report of the treasurer was read, and the following oommittees appointed: Auditing committee, W. E. M. Brown, K. H. Wagoner, D. K. Carver; resolution committee. E. B. Schofield. W. T. Sellars, A. M. Atkinson: ways ana means committee. V. M. Franklin. John Brazelton, F. M. Wiles; nomination committee, Neal McLeod, D. H. Lucas, William Cunningham. At 3 o'clock Mr. Knox P. Taylor. State evangelist of Illinois Sunday schools, was heard in an address upon Sunday-school woric, ollering suggestions for help in such wotk. He said the work was yet in its infancy as far as its influence was concerned, aud that its success depended more on formative than reformative wortt. Mr. Knox declared that tbe average preaching of the day does not enrich as inuon as the Sunday-school work, and stated that no society of any eort could take the place of the Sunday school, Mr. Taylor closed with a few remarks as to how a sohool shonld be conducted. At the evening meeting a paper.was read by Mrs. A. B. Stanton, of Loganspbrt, upon 'Musio in Sunday Schools," the music of the evening consisting of Sunday-school songs. At 8 o'clock Mr. Taylor again addressed a good-sized audienoe upon "Christ In the Bible." . At Camp Acton. Monday morning saw a large exodns of the business men from Camp Acton, but enough are left to yet make it a populous little city. In a tour of the grounds it can be found that but ten out of a hundred and fifty cottages-are unoccupied, and these are old ones scarcely fit for habitation. The day was quiet after the busy scenes of Sunday. ' A 1 2:30 Professor Hudson led a social meeting. A fair number were present, and an active interest was shown in it. In the evening Rev. A. Lewellyn, of (ireenfiald, preached trom Romans i, 10. The gospel is the power of God unto salvation, furnishing a solution for every problem of life, reforming bad governments and other social Ills. A well-filled altar service closed the work of tbe day. The late train to Indianapolis will stop every night at the camp hereafter, and in consequence a muoh larger transient attendance is expected. This afternoon Dr. J. II. Martin will lecture, and in the evening Rev, E. A. Campbell will preach. Dr. Moore, of the WetrTrn Christian Advocate, will preach Thursday, nnd Dr. Buohtel Friday and Satnrday. Arrangements are being made for a band concert by the Shelby ville Cornet Hand for next Satuiday afternoon and evening. An Obilgtpff, Doctor. Yesterday an individual called at the office of Dr. Cbevis, at No. b2h Indiana avenue, and requested the Doctor to write out a prescription for an attack of sickness. The physician did as requested and the patient started to depart. As he left tho oilice, he noticed the Doctor's bicycle in tbe hallway and coolly inquired if be could borrow the vehicle long enough to tako a ride around the square. Dr. Cbevis happened to be in an obliging humoron this occassion and gracefully granted the loan. Last night he called at police headquarters with a description of the man. who has thus far failed to return the wheel.
