Recently his young son fell and broke his arm, and th father bandaged the arm himself, after which he ofTcred up prayer ior his son's recovery. The latter failed to be benefited, but, on the contrary, tho broken arm grew worse, and the Intense pain caused the boy to complain until neighbors heard his cries. The marshal of this city was notified, and Hanes was placed under arrest. When physicians were called in the father protested vehemently, claiming that the Iord'a work was being interfered with. To-day, when the physicians f.gain visited the home, it was found that the boy had disappeared. It is supposed that he has been sent to Dowie. at Chicago. The father refuses to tell where his boy i. only saying that he "has been removed from the hands of the ungodly." A LKTTEIl FROM NKKLY. IVrltc to Ilia Muter thnt lie Kxpecta to He a Free 3Ian Soon.

Serernl Aomifr 3Ien Ilnrt in n Sophomore-Freshman Clash. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE, Ind., Sept. 2S. The freshman-sophomore class riots culminated last night in a free-for-all fight in which a half dozen students were injured. Over Soo students took part in the affray. Paul AV. Carnahan, of Worthington, a sophomore, was unconscious for several hours from exhaustion. Edward Quinn, of San Antonio, Tex., a rophomore, was choked and for a time was in a precarious condition. James Headson. a freshman from Virginia, had his shoulder bruised so badly he may bo permanently injured. Drs. .1. W. Yager and F. T. Hiner cared for the Injured. Of exhausted and bruised participants there were too many to mention. The light was the result of an effort on tho part of the freshmen to place their class numerals on the water works tank north of the college town. They found the tank ful! and overflowing, making It impossible to paint the structure. They were wondering what action to take when surprised by a body of sophomores. President Stone this morning visited all of the more badly injured and found them being well cared for. He deplores the scrimmage and says it shall go no further. He announces that the leaders will be disciplined. Affairs of Indlann University. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Sept. 2S. The first week of Indiana University has closed. Thursday at noon the registration was eighty-four ahead of the same date of last year. Many students who attend the university make their way through college and teach the first term to get money to pay expenses the rest of the year. The opening exercises in the chapel were in the nature of a general discussion for the "good of the order" in that each department was represented by a speaker, including the laculty, the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A., oratory, athletics, lecture board and dramatics. Next Tuesday the address is given by the Rev. Allan 13. Philputt, of Central Chrustlan Church, Indianapolis, and each following week there will be addresses by ministers and prominent men from different parts of the State. The opening social reception of the year was held last evening by the Y. M. C. A. in their new chapter house on East Kirkwood avenue. The fraternities of the university average a membership of from eighteen to twenty-five and there are eleven in all, in addition to which there is a very strong nonfraternity element. The girls' fraternities within the last two years have adopted a rule not to accept members within a month after the opening of college. 4 IIIS UALLOON COLLAPSED.

Frank Reed, aeronaut, of this city, had a narrow escape from death at North Manchester yesterday. Ho was using an old balloon, and when about 5xX feet in the air one side of the balloon gave way to the pressure of hot air and the result was a rip eight feet long in the canvas. Tho balloon immediately collapsed. The aeronaut had presence of mind to disengage the parachute, but the falling balloon almost enveloped him before lie could get away fron; It.

BOARDS ON INSULAR DEFENSES CONVENED UNDER ORDERS OF THE WAR D H PA It TM E X T. Ilrevets for Soldiers In the Orient President Ihionevelt's HonorsDole Not to Resign. Staff Ccrresi endence of the Journal. WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S. From many places of the land come reports of projects for McKinley monuments and memorials. In tho various plans arc involved bridges, arches, auditoriums, hospitals, training schools, bronze statues, etc. Mountain peaks and arctic capes will be named for the martyred President. Many ways will be found to do honor to his name. Some few of these will have national significance, but most of them will be confined to localities. It is probable that the monument at Canton will be raised by popular subscriptions. If this is so the collecting of tho money and the making of the memorial probably will proceed rapidly. xxx Tho permanent monument which the government will erect will hardly be begun for a quarter of a century or more. This will seem very strange to those who bear an ardent patriotic love for the dead chief magistrate. On the other hand, mature reflection will probably show that a monument erected quickly by the state is not apt to have the enduring and permanent character which is to be desired. A monument raised thirty years after death has a dignity, strength and meaning, which the one promptly erected cannot carry. The real monuments to Grant and Lincoln are to be erected within the next few years. They will be so situated that they will form a trinity with the Washington monumentWashington, Grant, Lincoln. They will be imposing, stately and grand in their adequate expression of the state's value of the public services of the men. History has rixed their value and the state acknowledges it. XXX The edifices which will rise at Canton and at other places a3 the result of popular subscriptions, reveal the grief, respect and honor of the whole people. A beloved President has been killed and the citizens mourn. The state does not grieve for Washington, Lincoln or Grant. Granite columns, arches and permanent forms rise to mark their work, and do not represent the passing grief and emotions of the moment. Unquestionably there will be many efforts in Congress to appropriate money for suitable McKinley memoiials. Some of these may pass. Even so, it will hardly becofce the real McKinley state monument. In front of the Capitol now stands the Garfield memorial. It is a bronze figure of the martyred President surrounded by various recumbent figures. It Is rarely pointed out. Only time tan give meaning to these permanent expressions. XXX The investigation of the War Department into the conduct of the management of the McKinley state funeral should be an exceedingly unpleasant affair. Every army officer in charge there deserves either a lecture or vindication. It was so badly mismanaged that it was almost disgraceful. Never at any time was there quiet In the rotunda. There was a constant shuffling of feet, moving of chairs, murmurings of voices and in many cases altercations. The army officers told Sergeant-at-arms Ransdell, of the Senate, that it would be improper to give him the seats for the senators, because the senators sometimes sold their seats. They certainly will have a day of reckoning for this. Colonel Ransdell knows all about handling a Capitol crowd. So does Major Sylvester, chief of police. The army officers gave out large numbers of seats for army officers, but did not make provision for the Supreme Court. It will be an unpleasant duty, but those. In charge should be shown up. and doubtless will be. OTTO CARM1CHAEL. G i:ERAL "WASHINGTON NEWS. Order for n Hnnril to Report on IiiHiilnr Fortification. WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S. Orders were Issued to-day convening boards of army officers to examine and report upon the fortifications necessary in the Philippine and Hawaiian islands. The lirst order designates Major Clinton B. Sears, corps of engineers; Capt. Albert Todd, artillery corps; Capt. Henry Joivey, corps of engineers; Capt. "William S. McNalr, artillery corps, a board to meet at Manila, 1. I., at the eailicst date practicable to consider and report on the subject of defense of important harbors of the Philippine islands; to make recommendations as to what harbors should bo fortified; to submit projects for. their defense, with estimates of cost and to mako recommendations as to what land should be acquired or set apart to meet all the demands of the defense. The Hawaiian order designates Lieut. Col. William II. llcur, corps of engineers; Major William H. Pirkheimer, artillery corps, and Capt. Adam Slaker, artillery corps, a board to meet at Honolulu, II. T at the earliest date practicable, at the call of the president of the board, to carefully consider and report on the subject of the defence of lVarl harbor and the harbor of Honolulu; to submit projects for the defense of these harbors, with estimates of the cflst and to make recommendations as to what land should be ;ciuircii or set apart to meet all the military demands of the said defense. Adjutant General Corbin said to-day that the board of brevets recently appointed to meet at the War Department next Monday would devote its attention solely to the cases of officers and enlisted men who especially distinguished themselves in the campaigns in China and in the Philippines. It will have nothing to do with respect to the -acs of officers who rendered special seivi'-o in the West Indian campaign. Tho latter class of cases was disposed of by a similar board which concluded its sessions over a year ago. While the fact that a brevet had been recommended to Congress for Colonel Rooj-evclt was published at the time the nominations wen; sent to the Senate, It appears that the facts that there were two separate recommendations and the exact basis lor the board's action were not made public. Therefore tho adjutant general to-day furnished these transcripts lroni tin procet ditics of the board; Lieutenant Colonel Theodore Roosevelt.
