'HUMPY' HAVEN'S ARREST HE TIUED TO SECIRK KMIt.WCU TO Tiic iiAiiniso.v iiorsc. Harm Wat Intoxicated "XV lieu Placed Under Arrest A Lone Knife Found In Ills Pocket. An unfortunate Incident occurred at the Harrison home, yesterday afternoon, about 1:30 o'clock, while the family and relatives wire in the home gathered about the remains of General Harrison, to hear the rhort prayer that was offered by Rev. M. I. Haines, before the remains were taken from the house. The incident created a little excitement at the time, but through the alertness of Attorney General Taylor and two of the police officers serious trouble wa3 averted. The excitement was caused by "Humpy" Haven, a notorious local character, trying to pain entrance to the Harrison home. Sergeant Glblin first noticed the fellow, who was dressed In shabby clothes, and evidently under the influence of liquor, following: closely behind Sergeant Lowe, just north of the house. Sergeant Giblin called attention to the fellow, and Sergeant Lowe ordered him back on the sidewalk. Haven removed his hat in a drunken fashion and crowded his way through the people. A a soon as Sergeants Glblin" and Lowe had left the place. Haven pushed through the crowd again, without being noticed by the two officers stationed at the corner. He walked rapidly towad the Harrison home, and no one seemed to notice him until he was in the yard and stepping toward the porch. Attorney General Taylor snapped his ringers loudly and attracted the attention of Patrolmen Miller and Montgomery, who hurried toward Haven. The latter, however, increased his pace, and reached the steps of the porch before the officers overtook him. The policemen placed him under arrest, and escorted him through the crowd and to Illinois street, where the patrol wajfon was called and he was taken to the police station. He was slated for drunkenness and malicious trespass. When searched a long knife was found upon him, such as Is used by banana peddlers. When asked his motive for going to the house he claimed he thought he had as much right to enter the house as the people did to enter the Statehouso on Saturday to view the remains of General Harrison. In accounting for the presence of the knlte he said he was a peddler, and thia was confirmed by other officers, who Paid they knew him to be a peddler. Detectives Asch and Gerber said the fellow has a bad reputation, and has been regarded as a desperate man, as he has eerved terms in the penitentiary for robbery and highway robbery. The detectives raid they saw him acting suspiciously rear the rear of the house a short time before he was arrested. Many who saW the arre3t believed that the fellow was a desperate character who had desired to enter the house for unscrupulous motives, but the police believe that he was only acting on a drunken Impulse.

VILLF.HS'S .MHMOIUAL SCUMON AT FIRST IIAPTIST. Rev. R. V. Hunter's Tribute nt the Seven tH Ire1y terln n VI eel In Held Throughout the Stute. Memorial services over the death of General Harrison were held In the auditorium of the Young Men's Christian Association building yesterday afternoon. The meeting was for men only, as It was feared the seating capacity of the room would be overtaxed, but there were a few women present. Mr. T. C. Day, who presided, said: "My friends, we have met this afternoon to consider the intluenee of the religion of Jesus Christ upon the heart and character of the great man whom we mourn to-day. The daily press throughout the Nation, the orators and various organizations by their resolutions have been speaking to us. In eloquent passages, of General Harrison's greatness of intellect, his greatness as a statesman and greatness as a patriot, but in the hour we spend together this afternoon we are to consider Benjamin Harrison as a great Christian, not that he was ostentatious with his Christianity, or made a display of his religion, but that in his early life he decided the great question, which every man must decide for himself sooner or later. What shall be my relations to Jesus Christ? He decided to be a Christian, and throughout his busy lite he was a consistent disciple and follower of Jesus of Nazareth. Not many weeks before his death I was walking up Meridian street In company with General Harrison, while h was giving his views of a public question which wa3 attracting general attention. Said he: 'It is not what we would like to do nor what the people would like to have done, but the question is. Is Yc right? It occurred to me then, and I believe now that that expression Ms It right." was the guiding principle of General Harrison's life. He brought every question given to him to solve to the bar of his conscience, and tried to answer it bv that rule. Jt has been said that General Harrison, In every phase of his life, can be held up as a model for young men to imitate, öurely in his faith in God.'his reverence for God's word, and unblemished Christian life he was an example for us all." After the reading of a scripture lesson by Rev. C. E. Bacon, of Roberts Park Church, and a song by the quartet from the FIr.st Baptist Church, Rev. Frank O. Ballard, of Memorial Presbyterian Church, delivered the address. He said It was especially befitting to have memorial services In honor of General Harrison because he was a stanch member of the association and was once president of the local branch of th-j X- M. C. A. He said the election of Benjamin Harrison as president of the association occurred when he was twenty-six years old, which was the first time the title "president" had been conferred upon him, and after that date he had been elected not only to the highest office of many other associations, societies and organizations, but to the presidency of the United States, the highest office the people of his country could give him. The Rev. Mr. Ballard first gave a brief review of the ex-President's life before taking up his subject proper. He said the newspapers and public comment had told much about Ceneral Harrison's personality relating to political, industrial and social life, but as a Christian he had not been discussed. To this particular and prominent feature of the statesman's character Mr. Ballard said he would confine his remarks. "We may well think of the influence and life of General Harrison," he said, "as a Christian man. I consider such a Christian the very best defense for .adverse commentary against Christianity. It Is the very best proof and Is conclusive argument in defense of individual Christianity itself. In this man is the proof tnat tne Christian is a real life." He said General Harrison decided that he would be a Christian early in life and placed his trust in God, and he continued to have that same implicit trust to the end. "His is the finished life of a finished Christian," he said, "and such a life proves that Christianity is true." Continuing, he said: "He believed In the common doctrine of Christianity. It is not that he believed in any one particular church. We are all the same. He loved the sweetness of the Christian faith. This intellect, which had such a grasp of Jurisprudence; this Intellect, which had such a grasp of politics; this intellect, which had such a grasp of matters of state and the powers rhat belong to statesmanship, was also an intellect that grasped Christianity. His thought was in the thing which he believed. If a man does not put his faith in something that is a conviction he is a weak man. He believed in Christianity the same as the humblest in faith. He was not ashamed to be identified with Christian societies, religion and missions. "In addition to this immutable faith In Christianity he had an unalterable trust In God. He had a simple faith. If you find a man exceedingly ' difficult to understand and to know he is not a great man. What we need is simplicity Itself and faith in God. These are the things that make men groat." The minister said he obeyed his conscience In all things, obeyed the inward voice which says "this do." General Harrison's interest and identity with public affairs, he said, were worthy of imitation. He finished by saying that Andrew Carnegie had recently given $ß.0).ox) for the founding of libraries, but General Harrison had given more to the world than 19.0)0 libraries and had proved that a man can be a Chrl-;Ian 'In the army, In state and in private life. A JIHMOIIIAL SFK.MOX. Rev. T. J. Villen Talk of Gen. llnrrlnon nt the Flrnt HnptiM. The Rev. Thomas J. Villers. of the First Baptist Church, yesterday morning preached a sermon that stood as a memorial to General Harrison. He said General Harrison was not a Christian in representation, but in deed. He spoke in admiration of the ex-President's Industry, patriotism and Christianity, making the tl.-ee eharaeterlstles subtopics for his sermon. The intensity with which the statesman entered into all things was spoken of as an ever apparent characteristic in' General Harrison's life, no matter how small the details involved. The minister said he was not slothful In spirit, but was ever up and doing. The minister said the patriotism of General Harrison, which was closely associated with his religion, was with him fnmi youth, he having had the example of his father before hlr.i. He said the statesman was of a shrinking disposition regarding the public, but the true spirit of the man was brought out when his principles and ideas were attacked, or things sail reflecting on hi? country or State, or church. This brought him to the front with his master mind. and. actuated by a patriotic spirit, he overcame the argument against what he stood for. A'nother distinguishing trait of character presented wa General Harrison's conscientiousness. The Rev. Mr. Villers spoke extensively of Harrison as a Christian, and all the tributes paid to his character contained allusions to Christianity. He said the ex-President was a man who enjoyed the Bible class, a man who let no other engagement deter him from making room for prayer service, and he was a man ever willing to testify for Christ. General Harrison's address at the missionary conference In New York was also referred to, and the minister read'un extract from one of lila speeches, on that

occasion, which placed Christ and the Christian religion above all else. There was a true and noble type of the man for whom we now mourn. Dr. Vllkrs said, and his was a life that should stand out as a noble example of true Christian living. rf.v. r. v. iii'STKirs m:h.mo.

He Considers the Life und Work of Gcu. lltirrUon, In the course of his sermon yesterday morning Rev. R. V. Hunter, of the Seventh Presbyterian Church, said: "Benjamin Harrison Is dead. A brave soldier, a wise statesman, a good citizen and a man with simple but Intelligent faith in God has passed from among us. From boyhood he grew in mental power and personal Influence until he occupied the highest position within the gift of his countrymen. Since the close of his services as President of the United States he has increased rather than lessened in popular esteem. His utterances upon great public questions have generally been marked by soundness of Judgment, and his regard for the welfare of American Institutions and his dignified but forceful protests against all attempts to transcend the limits of the Constitution in governing the new insular possessions of the United States has had a profound effect upon the minds of thinking men, whether they have fully agreed with him or not. "General Harrison's type of mind and character were needed In our country. He had a sturdy courage, an unflinching patriotism and a moral bias which made him a force to be reckoned with. His intellectual prowess and keen rhetoric, and all without bitterness, enabled him to so handle a subject that his meaning could not be misunderstood. He -was the intellectual peer of any contemporaneous American. Of clear vision and wonderful acumen, he comprehended relationships and followed them to their ultimate logical conclusions. This quality of mind has been exemplified many times in his practice of law; was remarkably evident in his speech on "good citizenship." delivered before the Union League of Chicago, about one year ago, and stood out with great prominence in that memorable address made last spring before the missionary conference in New York. While regarded as one of the great men of our times, I believe history will accord him a higher place still than he now occupies. WAS A STATESMAN. "Ex-President Harrison was a statesman also. A statesman is one who thinks, plans and works for the future good of his country and countrymen; while the politician Is concerned about present, personal and party advantage. The politician is essentially selfish. The statesman loves his country and countrymen. A statesman and patriot of ancient Sparta wrote the laws which he believed would best govern his country; then went into voluntary exile that they might not be revoked. P'x-President Harrison followed a course so conscientious while President as to be largely responsible for bringing about his defeat for a second term. It is better to be right than to be I 'resident of the United States. "Not only did General Harrison have gifts of intellect, but he was a man of careful industry. He was studious and painstaking. Many an invitation to make an address recently has he refused, simply because he hnd not what he deemed sufficient time to make preparation. Much of his Intellectual power was due to his genius for "hard and careful study. After all, there Is no genius equal to that of Industry. As President of the United States he gave us a clean and able administration. There were no stirring scenes and transitional periods during his administration such as have marked the past four years. He did not have the opportunities of the present administration in this respect. But no President the United States has ever had possessed a higher Ideal of the functions of the office. For high and pure conception of the duties of President he will compare with Washington, Lincoln and Garfield. There was no maneuvering for political power or partisan advantage; no encroachment on the prerogatives of other branches of the government, no breath of 'commercialism.' His conscience was stronger than his instinct for diplomacy, and for this reason he was not a strong man when it came to the election of 1S02. GOOD CITIZEN. "He was a good citizen. Quiet, Industrious, dignified, patriotic and intelligent, he has impressed his countrymen as no other ex-President has ever done. He has been In demand professionally; civic organizations, educational assemblies and Institutions, the church and his country have called upon him Incessantly; and when possible to take part in any of these functions he has brought credit to himself and honor and helpfulness to the cause which he has espoused. "General Harrison was a Christian. He Ftood for the main facts taught by the Christian religion, both in theory and practice. He believed in the church as a part of God's pi in for the redemption and education of the world. He was a member of the churci , an officer In it, and supported it by attendance and contribution. His life and teachings indicate great catholicity of vievs. He believed in the sovereignty of God. the divinity of Jesus Christ, the authority of the Scriptures, the utility of the church, and that all who accept the essentials of Christianity and honestlj' endeavor to live up to their best light are God's children, without reference to denomination, locality, age or color. "Life, to ex-President Harrison, 'was a sacred trust to be returned to its giver with all the talents accounted for' and the Interest thereon. With a cold exterior, anil what seemed at times Imperiousness, he had withal a warm heart for his friends, for the suffering, for his country and for his God. We will miss his counsel, his wisdom and his voice. But he has left a heritage to his country and countrymen of which they are proud. America's youth will do well to emulate his example of industry. Integrity, high ideals and Christian living. Our statesmen will do well to accept the pattern of lofty and Intelligent patriotism, left by him. In their future careers. The laity of our churches can learn a lesson of high ideals and faithfulness from his life. We will miss his counsel in church and state. There is genuine sorrow that General Harrison is dead, not only In his family, but In his home city. State and Nation. But his influence will live for years to bless mankind." FIRST AMONG MUX OF HIS TIME. Rev. Dotiuld Sniff 3!ucley'i INtimiite of General Hu rrimou. NEW YORK, March , 17.-A memorial service for the late ex-President Harrison was held, to-day, in the Collegiate Church, the pastor. Rev. Donald Sage MacKay, preaching the sermon. "The Christian Citizen" was his theme, and In his address he said: "I wash to speak of that great statesman and Christian whose recent death has been chronicled Benjamin Harrison. He was a typical man, a representative of that type of man that serves his own generation. He will be remembered without distinction of party as a good citizen. For sheer intellectual strength, breadth of mind, grasp of situation and the essential principles, Benjamin Harrison stood amcng the first great men of his time. Not all his great qualities will be recognized today nor to-morrow. He lacked the qualities that enthuse the popular mind. There was a reserve in his presence that chilled the popular enthusiasm, but back of this was the keenest intellect and the greatest conceptions of his duty as a good citizen."

Mrs. M. J. Dinwiddle, sixty-one years old. sl.-Uer of Mrs. Dr. G. W. Nash, of this city, died at Brownsburg yesterday of pneumonia. About four hours later her cof sin, Mrs. Enoch Avery, also of Brownsburp, died of the same disease. The funerals will be on Tuesday, Mrs. Avery being buried In the morning and Mrs. Dinwiddle in the afternoon. Another coincidence connected with the deaths was the death of Alexander Offut, of this city, former resident of Brownsburg, and a close acquaintance of the two families, who also died of pneumonia at about the same time. MR. WflNflMflKER HEARD HC CONDUCTS IIIIlLi: CLASSES AT FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CULRCII. Addresn to Clnsae Formerly Conducted by Gen. Harrison and Gov. Mount A Lante Attendance. John Wanamaker, ex-postmaster general under President Harrison, whose fame as a Sunday school superintendent Is almost as far-reaching as his personal and political identity, yesterday addressed . the Bible classes in the First Presbyterian Chdrch Sunday school that were formerly taught by General Harrison and Governor Mount. The class, which Is known as "Governor Mount's memorial class," and is now taught by George T. Howser, is composed of male members only, and It was this class that Mr. Wanamaker first consented to address. Later It was decided to Include General Harrison's class, and In the end several other classes Joined these two, making quite a congregation for the ex-postmaster ireneral. Mr. Hawser briefly reviewed the I lesson and 31r. Wanamaker was one of his closest listeners. Mr. Wanamaker first talked of the lesson topic, "Jesus and Pilate." He spoke feelingly of the trial of Jesus before Pilate and said the ruler's consent to allow Christ to be crucified was due to his failure to stand by his convictions. He said Pilate was of the sincere belief that Jesus had done no wrong, but he yielded to the clamors of the people. The principle of standing by convictions was then applied to men of today. Then Mr. Wanamaker drifted more Into a discussion of everyday topics and said money and pleasure seem to be the goal of many instead of Christ and the church. "It seems that money will do everything," he said; "it diverts us from the church and causes us to find amusement elsewhere. Sunday golf and excursions take the place of comfort in the Bible class. It is the old book we should live by." Referring to General Harrison, he said he was a man who never los his convictions and was a Christum. His life was ever the same, he said. He had lived in Christ's name here and death is now the opening of the door Into the more beautiful country. He said General Harrison was a Christian in deed and action and cared little for the possession of worldly things, and that his love for higher and better things ever shone out of his eyes and heart. Mr. Wanamaker also paid tribute to the memory of Governor Mount. ACCIDENTAL INJURIES. The City DUpensnry Doctors Attend Three Men. Frank Walters, employed in an Kast Washington-street restaurant, was taken to Ihe City Dispensary yesterday evening to have a deep gash on his head sewed up. He said he was walking on the street at Delaware and Washington streets and was struck on the head by a brick thrown by an unknown person. Mose Cawley, of Irvlngton, was taken to the City Dispensary yesterday evening and a gash In his head was sewed up. He was getting aboard an Irivington car, when he was knocked off oy a passing buggy belonging to Dr. Gelmer and driven by two cf his employes. His side was also badly bruised. Zach Haynes, of 534 Coffy street. West Indianapolis, had his right arm broken yesterday afternoon by being kicked by a horse he was feeding. He was taken to the Dispensary, where the broken member was set. CAPITAL OF $250,000. A Comyuuf of Local 3Ien Will Unild Strum Vehicles. One of the new industries of the city Is a company organized with a capital stock of $2D0,0). A large portion of the stock has already been subscribed. It is the intention of the company to fit up a modern plant that work on an extensive scale may be begun soon. The company has acquired the property and patent rights of Paul II. White and will build steam drays, trucks, omnibuses, etc.. at its plant, located on the Rig Four Railroad at Fifteenth street. Comparative tests have shown that the use of the vehicle manufactured by this company effects a saving of from 0 to 50 per cent, over the use of horses. This company, being one of the first in the field, expects a good business from a demand that is greater than can be supplied for some time to come. STABBED AT SOCIAL FUNCTION.

FORST.PATRICK'SDAY

Tili: CULKKHATIOX TOOK PLACE IX TOMLISO. HALL. A Lnrse Audience Wm I'reaent to Do Honor to the Patron Saint of Irelund. THREE ADDRESSES WERE MADE t FRAMv D. tflRKi: SPOKE IN HIGH TERMS OF GUS. HARRISON. Henry AVnrrun and Father Ilyrnc Also Alluded to the Dead Play Given at the Grand. Yesterday while the last services over the bedy of General Harrison were being held Tomllnson Hall was filled with people who gathered there In honor, of one whose memory has for years been arinual'.y honored by appropriate celebration St. Patrick. The hall was crowded, even to Ihe galleries, and much enthusiasm was exhibited. The programme consisted of addresses and music by the Boys' Hibernian Band. The musical programme was made up of patriotic Irish and American music, pleasingly intermingled. The meeting was presided over by Mayor Taggart, who briefly explained its purpose, to honor the memory of St. Patrick, whose devotion to his country and people were not to be forgotten. References were made to Lincoln, Governor Mount, Father Bessonies and the last to depart General Harrison. He then introduced Henry Warrum, cf this city, who spoke at length, reviewing the history of the Irish people, their characteristics, their oppression, their struggles, their emigration to America, their part In the private and public life of this country. During the course of his remarks he attacked bitterly the policy of Great Britain, not only In its dealings with Ireland, but with India and with the Boers. "With all due respect to everyone here," said Mr. Warrum, "I feel like saying, blast such a government." After prolonged applause had subsided, some one with a playful spirit opened the vent of a steam radiator or blew on a whistle of some sort, giving forth a strong hissing sound which kept up until Mr. Warrum became preceptibly embarrassed. In closing he referred to the love of General Harrison for the liberty of nations, and his recent articles in the North American Review, In which ho claimed that England was entitled to no sympathy In the Transvaal war trouble from America and also to the remark of General Harrison, "Well, Paul Kruger will welcome me when he was told that he would not be welcomed by the crowned heads.on another visit to Europe If he persisted In writing auch articles. The second speaker was Father Byrne, who paid a high tribute to General Harrison, speaking of his love of liberty ani of the same noble qualities of St. Patrick. He referred to the oppression and bondage of the Irish people for fourteen hundred years, one-half of which, he said, had been occupied with a struggle for liberty. Concluding, he said. In part: "St. Patrick lived for fifty years, and during this time his labors confronted a whole nation, and without shedding one drop of blood. The Irish faith has not changed. During the seven hunöred years in which Ireland has been engaged in a struggle with one of the greatest powers of the earth It has struggled for principles eternal In character. Truth, justice and right are of the number. Here in the quietude of this western world they rallied around the standard of the cross." FRANK B. BURKE'S ADDRESS. Frank B. Burke, who was the last speaker, was greeted with much-applause. He said: "I have been asked by the committee in charge of this celebration to say a word In reference to General Harrison. I did not know General Harrison In private life, but suffice it to say that if his private life was as unimpeachable as his public life tt was unsullied by any wrongful or low act. We remember him as a public man, and in a public meeting we will pay respect and honor to his public virtues, lie was a descendant of one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. In the maintenance of the principles of that declaration depends the freedom of Ireland. Ireland's freedom will come when universal freedom comes. We are rapidly approaching it, and the movement is accelerated by the unselfish devotion to fearless defense of the principles by such men as General Harrison. Liberty is marching onward. We must struggle, we must right, we must be vigilant, to the end that the principle of liberty given to us by our fathers Is not overthrown and wiped out. If we do that, then, in the conflict waged throughout the world now as against absolutism on the one side and the rights and privileges of the people on the other, liberty must in the end prevail, because liberty is Justice and liberty is truth. "England is the representative of arbitrary power. Bismarck said that the grave of the British empire would be dug in South Africa. God speed the day and strengthen the arm of the grave digger. The conflict is now on. Russia and England are arrayed against each other as two snarling dogs over a bone in China. I will not call the militia out to stop the fight. I am not a prophet, but I venture the prediction, whether it is in the present century or some time during the next three hundred or five hundred years, the final conflict between absolutism and the rights of the people will be waged between Russia and the United States of America. This country is by location the cradle of liberty. Whether we preserve it as such will depend upon whether you follow the teachings of the dead statesman who is now being burled at Crown Hill or those of the titled aristocracy. We have to take sides. We will have to be either Republicans or aristocrats; we will have to be Democrats or of the titled aristocracy. ou may take your choice. We must determine them Anally in this country. "What do we learn of General Harrison? He was born not a prince. He was born not a peasant. He was born a man. This is the only country in which a man can be born a man. His opportunities were . not what accident of birth made them, but what his energy, ingenuity and power made them. And here did they depend upon General Harrison alone, because he was born in a republic where there are no classes. Yet times are now different from what they were when General Harrison was born. General Harrison is reputed to have been worth three hundred thousand dollars. When I was a boy that was almost Incomprehensible wealth. To-day, relatively speaking. General Harrison died a pauper. With the moneyed men receiving the benefits of class legislation and favoritism General Harrison may be a prince among us paupers, but he was a pauper among the princes of the United States. We learn from the lesson of his life that the people can be trusted to be Just and true to their servant and to themselves. That he lived; that he manifested his devotion under adverse circumstances, subject to criticism, shows that he was a patriot; believed in his country and believed In man. and we vlll live to see the day when those who advocate the imperial principles of the country will say he was a Copperhead. He is even now called a Copperhead. Why? Because he believed In liberty and believed in tne equality of man. Because his sympathies went out to the Boers In their heroic struggle for liberty he was moved to say, as has been said here to-day, that Paul Kruger would call to see him when the crowned heads of Europe would not welcome him. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. If you want to serve Ireland serve your own country. If you want to free Ireland keep your own country free. If you want to elevate the plane of political equality of the human race stand for that equality where you have the Mlltlcal power to do i so. The teachings and life of General Har1 risoa demenstrute that none but an Ameri

can poet could have written, 'Lives of great men all remind us that is. In this country 'we can make our lives sub!ime, and departing leaves behing us footprints in the sands of time.'
