But I do not. Let those believe it who can. It remains only for us to come to Calvary, to the foot of the cross a symbol not of defeat, but of victory and abide in the hope of a resurrection from the dead. The Easter message is the confirmation of our best visions of life. It needs not argument so much as proclamation. The spirit of our age. the commercialism bred by our vast resources, the material happiness of life all tend to shut out the ceaseless call of the eternal world. Men do not take the trouble to deny the resurrection of Christ from the d?ad. They ore not coming up to the overthrow of the great arguments of Christianity. They are Mmply passive, in a time like this there is ne-td of a fresh and vital insistence of this great fact of Christianity. Many have gloomy thoughts as they look out from this crumbling house of clay. We need confidence and sernity to round out the spiritual character of our age. This Christ alone can give. We need to recognize the fullness and continuity of life.

EVILS OF GAMBLING

THEY ARE POINTED OPT II Y Till: REV. VIRGIL W, TEVIS. He Presche the Fourth Sermon of a Serien on "Moral Leasoim from the Police Court." SPECIFIC INSTANCES CITED IIECENT CASES THAT HAVE COME TO LIGHT IX POLICE COIHT. Claim .Made that This City In Honeycombed with Vnriou Forms of Gaming The Lessons. At Fletcher-place Church last night the pastor, the Rev. Virgil V. Tevis, preached the fourth of his series of sermons on "Moral Lessons Revealed by the Police Court." His specific subject was "Gambling." Extra seats were provided and, in addition to the unusually large audience, the Police Court officials were present. The preacher said: "That gambling is a dangerous vice, affecting not only the Individual, but society, as well. Is not only a recognized fact to every moralist, but is so pronounced by the law, which declares in no uncertain terms against It. And yet how few people understand its far-reaching and pernicious effects? Now and then, when a raid is made upon some gambling den, attention is called to its alarming prevalency, or when some bank cashier, having lost his own money in stock gambling, purloins from the bank and, having lost that, in an effort to recoup his losses, commits suicide, a spasm of virtuous sentiment agitates the community. When these periodical spasms occur the gambling fraternity remains under cover until It is over and then resumes business at the old stand until another time of agitation comes. The community needs waking up to the fact that the need of the hour is not a sentimental set of resolutions upon this subject, but a steady, powerful current of moral Influence, eternal vigilance and continual agitation. "How few have studied the many evils arising from this vice and their far-reaching iniluence? To gamble Is to play a game of any description for stakes. Simplified, it means the getting of something of value for nothing an unequitable gain. It means the growing richer, if possible, by making others poorer; the fattening of the hopes of one by drinking the life-blood from the hopes of the other. It is a principle of political economy hat every dollar represents so much la.xr. Otherwise it has a fictitious value. This science recognizes the necessity of exchange among men upon an equitable basis. Pack of this exchange stands labor.which affixes valuation to commodities. For example, the same labor which will produce an ounce of gold will produce a thousand pounds of iron. The gold miner finds that he has ncd of iron and offers to exchange labor for labor, an ounce of gold, for a thousand pounds of iron. This is an equitable exchange, in which the benefit is mutual. Both common honesty and political economy damand that every benefit be mutual. Weighed by this Just standard, every act which accrues to the advancement of one man to the detriment of another is a wrongful act. To obtain something of value for nothing In a game of chance, or even skill, where the other party suffers loss In proportion to the gain. Is Immoral, contrary to the laws of political economy and a violation of the statutes of the State. RIGHTS OF OTHERS. "It is another well-founded principle of law that no man has the right to interfere with the rights of others. Human rights is a sacred subject. On that is founded the tranquillity and security of citizenship. The law throws its protecting arm around every home and says to the weakest member of the household, 'Your rights are just as sacred as the rights of the most powerful member of society.' Coupled with that law is the moral obligation every father owes to his family. Back of the gamester stands his wife and helpless chtldren. He is. in the law, their provider, and they have a right, both moral and legal, to look to him for sustenance. His losses at the gaming table take from their mouths bread and shoes from their feet, and the winner of what represents these i.niigs Is, in the eyes of the moral law, their robber, for on every dollar they have a just claim. The wife's right is that of a partner, and not a silent one, by any means, and the children that of dependency, which, under God's law, is of fearful responsibility to the heads of the home. "This thing of seeking to obtain the property of others without rendering an equivalent for it lead3 to an innumerable train of evils. There is no question but what professional gamblers have a code of their own. which Is rigorously kept. One elementary principle of that code is that every player must keep his word. Rut the descent of men engaged in this business is to tremendous depths of gloom and sin. Even among the best of gamblers it is considered legitimate to take advantage of ach other in every possible way. Mason Long, who for years made his living at this business, testifies that this is held to be part of the trade. The consequences are that men lend themselves to shrewd schemes of trickery by which they are enabled to rob the unsuspecting. The testimony in the gambling cases tried at Vlncennts, in which Banker Davis is suing to recover moneys lost In the gambling hells at Washington, is to the effect that loaded dice were used and all manner of ingenious contrivances were invented to give the proprietor of the place such an advantage as to make his winnings sure. 'Another principle, enforced by eternal justice, is that money illegally got never brings a blessing with it and rarely stays. Of your acquaintances how many gamblers have died wealthy? On the other hand, what a multitude have gone out of the world in abject poverty! How many have drawn large prizes in lottery schemes where the money did them any good and where they kept it for any length of time? It is the rule that while the goddess of fortune apparently smiles upon the gambler for a while and fascinates him with he promises of a rosy future, she is at the same time stealing from him his morals, his energy and zest for honest work and substituting in his very nature idleness, dishonesty and profligacy of the worst type. "Have you noticed the results of gambling as seen in the more unfortunate? How many young men have been left comfortable fortunes by fond parents sufficient, by a little good management, to have eventually made them independent who, under the fascination of the gambling table, have squandered it all and become disreputable tramps or else filled paupers' graves? How many families are there scattered up and down over the country, sad-eyed and socially humiliated, whose children have exchanged the music of laughter for the dismal chant of misery? A DANGEROUS FASCINATION. "Somehow there is a dangerous fascination about the business, like the fascination of a serpent which charms before he strikes with poisonous fangs. There is always the possibility of winning the next time, and upon this possibility men risk everything. Some have even wagered their Innocent wives on the turn of a card. Some are so far gone that they would stake their soul's salvation upon the result of a game. Shakspeare says: 'Keep a gamester from the dice and a good student from his books, and it is wonderful.' ."It Is an apparently harsh statement to make, but it is nevertheless true, that gamesters become untrustworthy. If the gambling fever is upon him. and he holds a position of trust, while he may intend to deal honestly with his employers, the temptation to recover hin losses is great. He thinks that he can borrow over night and If successful at the game can repay the next morning and none be the wiser. Scores of fallen bank officials and treasurers of other Institutions testify to the ultimate failure of this plan and consequent disgrace. Here in this city. In the Police Court, during the trial of the gamblers arrested at a certain club-room, a young man was upon the witness stand who testified to hi losses there. During his examination it was brought out in evidence that at that time he was under indictment from the Criminal Court for forgery. While engaged In gambling he was in the employment of a large wholesale hous? of this city. The deduction is plain. Napoleon I understood this and always manifested the strongest disapproval of gambling. He nevtr reposed confidence

in any one addicted to this vice. The Inion Surety Company of this city always demands that an applicant for a position of trust give some reputable citizens to whom reference is made as to his character. Among the questions to be answered by the referee is this: 'Has he ever been addicted to gambling?' How long do you suppose any man could retain a position of trust if it were known to his employers tnat he Indulged In this vice? HONEYCOMBED WITH GAMBLING. "This community is honeycombed with gambling of various types. Some of it can be stopped by law, seme of It cannot. The law does not reach that respectable class who deal In margins, and yet here is the place where fortunes are made and lost in a day. Hundreds of men have been ruined in the pit, and in this arena many have trailed their characters, won by years of honest toil, until the stains of dishonesty covered them. The young men of this age must learn that the only moral and safe way to win a fortune lies in honest method?, which are sometimes tedious and slow, but nevertheless sure and permanent and satisfying, and which have in them no sighs of broken hearts and no ghosts of slaughtered Innocence. Another form which stands out in bold relief is the lottery. A State statute makes it an indictable offense to sell, purchase or offer for sale the ticket of any lottery. Under this head comes policy playing. This form of gambling appeals specially to those of limited capital, and nundreds of our people have been engaged in it. For a time It flourished, but the healthful and Just verdicts of the last two juries In the Criminal Court has had a happy effect. Eternal vigilance in watching this phase of the question, together with a determination on the part of the officials to enforce the law, will drive it out of business. Many of our club-rooms are mere places of poker playing, where the select few may Indulge in comparative safety. At the head of the procession are the well-known gambling promoters, whose business Is to fleece the unwary, and whose names and business is well known to the police. "Rut there are minor phases of gambling leading to greater evils. It Is contrary to a state statute to play a game of billiards, the loser to pay for the game. Yet almost every game Is played in that manner. If the proprietor of the billiard rooms has knowledge of this he is liable to the law. The shaking of dice for drinks or cigars Is to be seen every day. Another law upon the statute books, almost absolutely ignored, forbids the Tbngregation of minors in a billiard hall or poolroom whether it has a saloon attachment or not and whether they play or wager on the game or not. This law Is broKtn every day, and is doubly violated every Sabbath, for on this day some poolrooms in some of the most prominent places of the city run In full blast i.nd the spectators and many of the participants are mere schoolboys. For this offense the proprietor can be prosecuted under both the law already mentioned and for violation of th Sunday law as well. Recently several young men who have not as yet reached their majority have been before Judge Stubbs. They were arrested in a row which occurred in a prominent poolroom on Massachusetts avenue. Every scheme for the division or disposition of property or money by chance or any game of hazzard Is prohibited by law. The woman, therefore, who offers a quilt at a raffle or the fraternity who disposes of any article in that manner are violators of the law. PUBLIC POLICY. "All the laws under which gambling comes are headed. 'Laws for the public policy, showing that wise legislators recognize the lar-reaching social effects of this vice. It is conceded that only comparatively few are convicted of gambling who are guilty of this offense. But In order to

demonstrate the prevalency of the vice in 1 the community look at the Tolice Court records for a moment. During six months "there have been in this court 130 convictions tor violations of the gambling law. These 100 people have paid fines amounting to fcl.-JM. Of these nineteen were policy cases. Some of these in addition to their fines served workhouse sentences. It would be perfectly safe to multiply this by two. which would give In round numbers 4) cases for the year, with a total of $3,000 of lines collected. How many homes does this represent, made all the poorer in every way by this vice?"The mayor of the city announces his determination to ston crambllntr. That deterI mlnation can be demonstrated by the effect j produced within the next few weeks, for a vigorous effort, aided by the law. will surely accomplish the result desired by every motalist. We have all the legal machinery needed; all that is wanting is the moral driving power behind it to keep it in motion. "Gambling is a grievous sin an ugly blot upon the fair face of our lovely city. Any nation that tolerates it as France tolerates the lottery business has upon her bosom an angry cancer which will by and by eat away her national life; and any individual who allows himself to be enticed by this monster will surely be the recipient of an adder's sting. "And so we lift the warning voice to our young men. There are innumerable pleasures which are healthful and delightful without danger attaching. There are others which lead to disgrace and death. These do not belong to the children of the King in whose veins flows the purest blood of the highest royalty, whose citizenship is in heaven." The subject of the next lecture will be "The Saloon as Revealed by Its Fruits." ALLIED PARTY CONVENTION. Reform Forces to Denonnre 'Plutocracy" at Louisville This "Week. LOUISVILLE, Ky.. March SO.

Garfield, son of the late President Garfield, has accepted the position of civil-set vice commissioner tendered him about ten days ago by President Roosevelt. He takes the place to be vacated on the 1st of Arril by William A. Rodenberg. Mr. Garfield is a comparatively young man and is engagotl in the practice of law with his brother, Harry A. Garfield, in Cleveland. He is a notable figure in Ohio politics and has served as state senator from his district. He was author of a law known as the Garfield election law of Ohio, which required all nominees for elective offices to file with the secretary of state a sworn statement of the expenses incurred by them during the campaign. The law, however, was subsequently repealed. Mr. Garfield is a resident of Mentor, a suburb of Cleveland. ' PLAXS OF THE COXfiRKSS. Oleomargarine, Exclusion and Sundry Civil Ililla ThU Week.

MUNCIE'S NEW RED vote on that measure on Tuesday of the present week, and as soon as it shall be disposed of the Chinese exclusion bill will be called up. According to the present understanding Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, who was largely instrumental in framing the exclusion bill, will make the first presentation of its merits to the Senate. He will be followed by other supporters of the bill, and it is the hope of Senator Penrose, who has charge of the measure, that the Senate will be able to conclude Its consideration within ten days after it is taken up. There is no pronounced opposition to the bill as a whole, but .an effort will be made to amend it In some particulars. There are still several speeches to be made on the oleomargarine bill, but it is the general understanding that the discussion will be concluded during the first half of the week, if not by Tuesday, in time to allow a vote on that date. It i3 expected that the Indian appropriation and the river and harbor bills will be reported during the week. IJoth are subject to Immediate consideration even to the extent of displacing other bills, but it is not believed that either of them will be u?ed to deprive the Chinese bill of its chance for consideration. The Philippine government bill will also be reported, probably to-morrow, but its consideration by the Senate necessarily will be postponed for some weeks. Th1 House during the coming week will be largely occupied by the sundry civil appropriation bill, which will be called up to-morrow. Such time as remains will be devot ed to the consiieration of -the Senate bill to promote the efficiency of the revenue cutler service and the Chinese exclusion bill, both of which are on special orders, but they do not intcrterc with revenue or appropriation bills. It is the intention of the leaders not to bring forward the Cuban reciprocity bill until next week. Did 'ot Attend Same- (horch. WASHINGTON, March CO.

Chicaco Vnlveralty Coed Athletes Want More Freedom. CHICAGO. March 30. The troubles of the young women who attend the Chicago University are never ending. After a long fight for exclusive possession of an athletic field. President Harper and Athletic Director Stagg assigned the girls a retired space, some distance from the men's field. It Is alsb two blocks away from the women's gymnasium, and this intervening distance has caused a world of heartache?. The girls refuse to walk in bloomers and knickerbockers through the campus to the field. Many exercise in the "gym" minus stockings, and they desire to frisk about in the field In the same way. According to gossip, those who toss off their stockings wear short socks, turned down over golf shoes. This style is popular with all except the basketball team. The strenuous work of the latter require the limbs to be covered or the chances for losing portions of the cuticle are materially increased. A fence, fifteen feet high, has been built around the girls' field, but it is not enough. They hav

The extensive plans for the Indoor fair and carnival to be given March 31 to April 3 by Silver Shield Company No. W, Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, are completed and the big show Is in complete readiness for the throngs that are expected to greet it tomorrow and all through the week. Capt. John K. Ritter and the thirty-four men in his company have worked diligently and expect to make this the best entertainment of the kind ever given In the State. The carnival will be given in the new Red Men's building, now all but completed, a s V-.. - r i 1 : 4 if 4 i .4- . x-y "v.- . . . . . if .1 v. - ...' , J '4 i. - Ts--4 A v. . , f i MEN'S BUILDING. the corner of High and Jackson streets. The building is a handsome three-story structure, built of red and light-colored fire-clay brick, with stone trimmings, the exterior ornamental work making the building quite attractive. It is one square from Walnut streit, the main business thoroughfare. Tho building was built by De Ember Tribe 'o. 30. I. O. R. M., Muncie's oldest tribe of Red Men, and will be dedicated by the tribe early in May. The lower floor has five business rooms and the second floor will be used for offices. The lodge will occupy the entire third floor, 60x120 feet. The building completed will cost about $27,500 and the construction work is of the best, the foundation standing through the winter before the walU were built.
