SYMPATHY FOR HELL IS THE ADVICE GIVEN Canadian Evangelists Are About Ready to Leave Indianapolis. "Hell should always be spoken of in a sympathetic manner," was one of the phrases of the Rev. Dr. Crossley at the Meridian-street Methodirt Church last evening. He used the subject of "Hell," and continuing said: "Why will nut bo thre? children. Christians. Christ and music. Who will be there? the drunkard?, the fallen angels and the liars. What will bo there? in, Buffering and remorse. There will never be a time when God will not love the sinner." At the meeting last evening Mr. Hunter and Mrs. S chafer, an evangelist of Chicago, sang a duet which was very much appreciated by the large audience present.

WANTED TG LIMIT HEIGHT OF OFFICE MINGS Proposition Seriously Considered by Committee Xow at Work. FINALLY VOTED DOWN The proposition to limit the height of buildings to be erected in the future in this city to five, six and seven stories is said to have been seriously discussed and advocated by some members of the committee now at work on a new building ordinance for the city at a recent meeting of the committee. Had those advocating the provision had tli ir way in the matter the new ordinance that will be ready to be Introduced In Coun cil within a month or six weeks would have contained a provision making it impossi ble tor anyone to erect a buihlinK in In dianapolis that should be more than seven stories in height. At two meetings the proposition was discussed, but was tina'.ly voted down. LOCAL CITIZENS FORM NEW TRANSFER COMPANY Traction Company Also Incor porated Yesterday by Secretary of State. The Western Cartage and Draying Company was incorporated yesterday by William Young. T. C. Tuck and D. M. Deveny, all of Indianapolis. The concern is capitalized at $25,000 and will engage In a general transfer, livery and draying business in this city. The Interstate Traction Company was also incorporated. The promoters of the line, who are citizens of Dayton, O., propose to build a traction railway between Dayton end Indianapolis. The general offices of the new company will be at Liberty, Ind., where the central power plant will be erected. Work on the new lino is expected to begin before the close of the present year. PRISONERS ARE ILL IN THE COUNTY JAIL For a short time yesterday the Marion county Jail was more of a hospital than a place of detention provided for criminals. Charles Smith, of Southport, serving a sentence for petit larceny, developed a case of measles yesterday morning and was removed to the City Hospital. About twenty inmates o? the Jail were exposed and more may become ill. Yesterday afternoon George Price, serving a sentence for embezzlement, was taken from the jail to the City Hospital, suffering from pneumonia. O'Leary, charged with the brutal murder of his wife, was much better yesterday and it is now believed he will recover. He has been suffering from pneumonia. GROWING OF GRASS ON CITY'S LAWNS Louis Hoover, secretary of the Indianapolis Civic Improvement Association, received a letter yesterday from J. A. Everitt in regard to the grass on lawns hjj different parts of the city. Mr. Everitt thinks that cch householder should make it a personal duty to see that the grass on his lawn is in good condition. He said this was the time of year for seed to be plant-, 1, but that the ground should first he put in condition by the use of a fertilize lie :-.;! it w:is a us. !"ss expense Q i.'i)t blue grass seed in shaded ground, but .nut special mixed seed should be used. JAMES MURPHY DIES WHILE INMATE OF JAIL James Murphy, of Hartford. Conn., died suddenly in the county Jail yesterday morning. The man's death was due to htmmorrhaccs from the nose. He had had several in the past few days but peemingly v.;is in good health Tuesday evening. Yesterday morning he had a severe hemmorrhage and died before physicians could reach him. The body was removed to Beck's undertaking establshment and will be shipped to his former home at Hartford, Conn. Murphy with his brother was sent to Jail some time ago charged with loitering. Means of Ruining Money. Among the new means for raising city funds advocated by City Controller Dunn is a tax to be imposed upon all practicers of the dark and mystic arts, such as fnrtune-t-Hers, clairvoyants, astrologers and hypi. ti. ts. Councilman at Large Fishback will probably Introduce an ordinance providing for licensing such itinerant advisers. Mr. Dunn also thiuks that phi uograph and moving-picture places should be made to pay a license. butions will receive consideration only as solutions of the mystery. The most plausible and convincing manner of ending Mr Dickens's untlnished story will be cho'wn and the manner of the telling will not few considered important. 1 Fitth Contributions must bo written one side of the paper only and address.".! the -Tontest Editor of the Journd- i ,11:1k ""UI, inSeventh The contributions will h,. h, by the contest editor and will KWbLi?JS by him. without comment or chan? . hm and announce' th..r .i.".P.a8a Checks will be mailed to the wim.. the day the awards are announced P" JCDGE3 OF THE CONTEST.

The Mystery of Edwin Drood

CCÄfCLUDED FROM YESTERDAY He struggles into a Bitting posture, and retorts upon her: "What do you mean? What did I wantr What did 1 come for?" She gently lays him hack again, and before returning him the Instrument he has dropped, revives the fire in It with her own breath; then sa-3 to him. cvaxingly: "Sure, sure. ture! Yes, yes, yes! Now I go along with you. You was too quick for me. I see no. You come o' purpose to take the Jourr.-y. Why, I might have known It. through ts standing by you so." He answers first with a laugh, and then with a passionate setting of h!s tests! "Yes, I came on purpoje. When I could not bear my life, I came to get relief, and I got It. It was one! it was one!" This repetition with extraordinary vehemence, and the snarl of a wt.lf. tshe sksSTTSS him very cautiously, as though mentally fe-Mng her way to her next remark. It is: "There was a fellow-traveler, deary." "Ha. ha. ha!" He broke into a ringing laugh, or rather yell. "To think." he cries, "how often fellowtraveler, and yet not knew it! To think how many times he went the Journey, and never saw the road!" The woman kneels upon the floor, with her arms crossed on the coverlet of the bed, close by him. and her chin upon them. In this crouching attitude she watches him. The pipe is falling from his mouth. She puts it back, and laying her hand upon his chest, moves him slightly from side to side. Upon that he speaks, as 1 f she hud spoken. "Yes! I always made the Journey first, before the changes of colors and the grat landscape and glittering processions began. They couldn't begin till It was off my mind. I had no room till then for anything else." Orce more he lapses into silent e. Once more she lays her hand upon his chest, and moves him slightly to and fro. as a cat might stimulate a half-slain mouse. Once more he speaks, as if she had spoken. "What? I told you so. When It comes to he real at last. It is so short that it seems unreal for the flrpt time. Hark!" "Yes. deary. I'm llienirg." "Time and plaCe are both at hand." He is on his feet, speaking in a whisper, and as if in the dark. "Time, place, and fellow-traveler " she suggests, adopting his tone, and holdin him softly by the arm. "How could the time be at ham unless the fellow-traveler was? Hush! The Journey's made. It's over." "So soon?" "That's what I said to vou. So p. .on. Wnlt a little. This is a vision. I shall Fleep it off. It has been too abort and easy. I must have a better vision than this; this is the poorest of all. No struggle, no consciousness of peril, no entreatyand yet I never saw that before." With a start. "Saw what, deary?" "Look at it! Iok what a poor, mean, miserable thing it is! That must be real. It's over." He has accompanied this incoherence with some wild unmeaning gestures; but they tra1! off into the progressive inaction of stupor, and he lies a log upon the bed. The woman, however, is still Inquisitive. With a repetition of her cat-like action she slightly st'.rs his body again, and listens; stirs ago in, and listens; whispers to it, and listens. Finding it past all rousing for the time, she slowly gets upon her feet, with an air of disappointment, and nicks the face with the back of her hand in turning from it. Hut she goes no further away from It than th chair upon the hearth. She sits In it. with an elbow on one of Its arms, and her chin upon her hand, intent upon him. "I heard ye say once," she croaks under her breath. "I heard y say once, when I was lying where you're lying, and you were making your speculations upon me. 'Unintelligible ! I heard you say so. of two more than me. But don't ye be too sure always; don't ye be too sure, beauty!" Unwinking, cat-like, and intent, she presently adds: ' Not so potent as it once was? Ah! Perhaps not at rtrst. You may be more right there. Practice makes perfect. I may have learned the secret how to make ye talk, deary." He talks no more, whether or no. Twitching in an ugly way from time to time, both as to his face and limbs, he lies heavy and silent. The wretched candle burns down; the woman takes Its expiring end between her fingers, lights another at it. crams the guttering frying morsel deep Into the candlestick, and rams it home with the new candle, as If she were loading some Ill-savored and unseemly weapon of witchcraft; the new candle in its turn burns down; and still he lies insensible. At length what remains of the last candle Is blown out, and daylight, looks into the room. It has not looked very long, whn he sits up, chilled and shaking, slowly recovers consciousness of where he is, and makes himself readv to dfjart. The woman receives what he pays "her with grateful. "Bless ye. bloss ye, deary;" and seems, tired out, to begin mnking herseif ready for slcp as ho leaves the room. But seeming may be false or true. It Is false In this ca.-.-; for the moment the stairs have ceased to creak under his tread, she glides after him. muttering emphatically: "I'll not mlsa ye twlcet" There is no egress from the ourt but bv its entrance. With a weird peep from the doorwav. she watches for his looking back. He does not look back 1 efcre disappearing, with a wavering step. She follows him, peeps from the court, sees him still faltering on without looking back, and holds him In view. Hf repairs to the back of Aldersgate Street, where a door immediately opens to his knocking. She crouches In another doorway, watching that one. and easily comprehending that he put up temporarily at that house. Her patience is unexhausted by hours. For sustenance she can, and does, buy bread within a hundred yards and milk as It is carried past her. He comes forth again at noon, having changed his dress, but carrying nothing In his hand, and having nothing carried for him. He Is not going back into the country, therefore. Just yet. She follows him a little way, 1,. sitates. instantaneously turns confidently, and goes straight into th house he has quitted. "Is the gentleman from Clolsterham indoors0" "Just gone out." "Unlucky. When does the gentkman return to Clolsterham?" "At six this evening." "Bless ye and thank ve May the Lord prosper business where a civil question, even from a poor soul. Is so civilly answered!" Til not miss ye twice!" repeats the poor soul In the street, and not so civilly. "I lost ye last, where that omnibus you got Into nigh your Journey's end plied betwixt the station and the place. I wasn't so much as certain that vom even went right on to the place. Now I know ye did. My gentleman from Clolsterham. I'll bs there before ye. and bide your coming I've sworn my oath that I'll not miss ye twice!" Accordingly, that same evening the poor soul ftands in Clolsterham Hlch Street, looking at the many quaint gables of the Nuns' House and getting through the time as rhe best can 'until nine o'clock, at which hour she has reason to suppose that the arriving omnibus passengers may have some Interest for her. The friendly darkne.-s. at that hour, renders It easy for her to ascertain whether this be so or set; and it is so, for the pssSSBJPSr not to be SSBSMd twice arrives among th1 re: t. "Now let me see what becomes of you Oo on!" An observation addressed to the air. and yet It ml.;ht be addressed to the passenger fo compliantly does he go on along the High Street until h comes to an arched gatewav at which he unexpectedly vanishes. The poor soul quickens her pace; is swift, and close upon him entering under the gateway: but onlv , a postern staircase on one side of it. and on tho ntw side an arcient vaulted room, in which a laigeheaded. gray-h.ilred gentleman is writing und.r the odd circumstances of sitting opt n 'to the thoroughfare and eyeing all who pass, as if he Wert toll-taker of the gateway: though the wav Is free. "Halloa!" he cries In a low voice, seeing her brought to a standstill- "who are you looking "There was a gentleman parsed in here this minute, sir." "Of course there was. What do you want with him?" "Where do h live, dean?" ' Live? Up that staircase." ri-s ye! Whisper. What's his name deary? "Surname Jasper, Christian name John Mr John Jasper." ' "Has he a calling, good gentleman "" "Calling? Ye.-. Sings in the choir." "In the spire?" "Choir." "Whi.t's thatr Mr luirh.ry ti. f- n his papaSBj ant r-.-n.-s to his doorstep. "Io ycu know what a cathedral is?" he asks. Jocosely. The v.. man nods. "What is it?" Sh looks possletf, casting about in her m!nd to tind a definition, whoa It occurs to her that it Is easier to point out tho substantial object itsflf, mrssive against the dark-blue sky and the early stars. "That's the answer. Oo in there at seven to-Trorrow momim: and you may see Mr. John Jasper, and hear him too." ' Thank ye! Thank ye!" The hurst of triumph In which she thanks him does n t escape the notice of tho single buffer Of an easy temper living idly on his mnns. He glances at her: clasps his hands behind him as tl im wont of such buffers Is; and lounges along the echoing Precincts at her skis "or." he suggests, with a hackward hitch of his had. "ye can go up at once to Mr. JasP -' rooms there." The woman eyes him with a cunning smile and shakes her head. "Oh! you don't want to -1 . k to him?" SMo repents hfr dumb reply, and forms with her lips a soundbss "No." "You enn admire him at a distance three times a day whenever you like. It's a long way to come for that, though." The woman looks tip quickly. If Mr. Datoh-'ry thi. ks he is to be induced to decla-e where she comes from, he is of a much easlei temper than she is. But she acquits him of such an artful thought, as he lounges alon'. like the chattered bore of the city, with his uncovered gray hair blov:-lng about, and his purposeless hands rattling the loose money In the pockets of his trousers. Th t hink cf the money has an attraction for her greedy ear?. "Wouldn't you hflp me to pay for my traveler's lodging, dear eor.th man. anil t pss my war.- Sor? I am a poor soul. I am, Indeed, and troubled with a grievous c ugh." "You know the traveler's lodging, I perceive and are mukin-c directly for it." Is Mr. Datchery's bland comment, still rattling his koae monev. "IWn here often, my good woman?" "Once In ull my life." "Ay. ay?" They hie arrived at the entrance to the Monk' Vlnyard. An appropriate remembrance, pte-.ntii..' :-n ixempliry ' i !el for Imitation, Is revived In the woman's mind by the sight of the place. She stops at the gate, and says energetically ' By this token, though you mayn't believe It. Tbut a uung tp-ullc:uun gave me turcv-aad-six-

Charles Dickens pence as I was coughing my breath away on this ver grass. I asked him tor three-and-slxpence. anc! he gave it me " "Wasn't it a lltle coo', to name your sum. hints Mr. Datchery. s-d rattling. ' Isn t it custor. sry to leave the am unt open? Mightn t it have had the appearance to the young gentleman only the appearance that he was rather dictated to?" "Lookcs here, deary." she replies. In a cor.ndentlal and persuasive tone, "I wanted the money to lay it out on a medicine as does me good, and as I deal in. I told the young gentleman so, and he gave it me. and I laid it out honest to the last brass farden. I want to lay out the same turn la the same way now; and if you'll give it me. I ll lay it cut honest to the last brats farden again, upon my soul!" "What's the medicine?" "I'll be honest with you beforehand, as well as after. It's opium." Mr. Latchery. with a Vttddea change of countenance, give her a sudden look. It's opium, deary. Neither more nor less. And it's like a human creetur co far. that you always hear what can be said against it, but set don what can be said in its praise." Mt. Datchery begins very slowly to count out the sum demanded of him. Greedily watching his hands, she continues to hold forth on the great example set him. "It was last Christmas Eve. Just arter dark, the or.ee that I was here afore, when the young gentleman gave me the three-and-slx." Mr. Datchery stops In his counting, finds he has counted wrong, shakes his money together, and begins again. "And the young gentleman's name," she adds, "was Edwin." Mr. Datchery drops some money, stoops to pick It up, and reddens with the exertion as he asks: "How do you know the young gentleman's name?" "1 asked him for it, and he told it me. I enly asked him two questions, what was his Chris' en nam': and whether he'd a sweetheart! And ho answered. Edwin, and he hadn't." Mr. Datchery pauses with lbs selected coins in his hand, rather as If he was falling into a brown study of their value, and couldn't bear to part with them. The woman looks at him dis trustfully, and with her anger brewing for the event of his thinking better of the gift; but he bestows it on her as if he were abstracting his mind from the sacrifice, and with many servile thanks she goes her way. John Jasper's lamp is "kindled, and his lighthoue is shining when Mr. Datchery returns alone towards It. As mariners cn a dangerous voyage, approaching an Iron-bound ooast. may look along the beams of the warning light to the haven lying beyond it that may never be reached, so r Datchery' wistful gaze is directed to this bor.con. and beyond. His object In now revisiting Ms lodging Is merely to put on the hat which seems so superfluous an article in his wardrobe. It Is halfpast tn bv the Cathedral clock when he walks OOt into the Precincts again: he lingers and looks about him, as though the enchanted hour when Mr. Durdles may be stoned home having struck, he had some expectation of seeing the Imp who is appoltned to the mission of stoning him. In effect, the Power of Kvil is abroad. Having nothing living to stone at the moment, he is (Mscoverod by Mr. Datchery in the unholy office of stoning the dead, through the railings of the churchyard. The Imp rinds this a relishing and piquing pursuit; firstly, because their resting-place is announced to be sacred; and. secondly, because the tall headstones are sufficiently like themselves, on their beat In the dark, to Justify the delicious fancy that they are hurt when hit. Mr. Datchery hails him with: "Halloa. Winks!" H acknowledges the hall with: Halloa. Dick!" Thetr acquaintance seemingly having been established on a familiar footing. "But I say," ho remonstrates, "don't yer go a-maktng my name public. I never m-ans 10 plead to no name, mind yer. When they says to me In the lot k-up. a-going to put me down In the book. 'What's your name?' I says to them. "Find out.' Likeways when they says, 'What's your religion?" I gays FinJ out.' Which, it may be observed In passing. It would be immensely dlfflcult for the State, however statistical, to do. "Aeldes which." add the boy, "there ain't no family of Winkses." "I think there must be." "Yer lie, there ain't. The travelers give me the name on account of my getting no settled sleep and being knocked up all night; whereby I gel one eye roused open afore I've shut the other. That's what Winks means. Deputy's the nlghest name to Indict me by: but yer wouldn't catch me pleading to that, neither." "Deputy be it always, then. We are good friends; eh. Deputy?" "Jolly good." "I forgave you the debt you owed me when we first became acquainted, and many of my sixpences have come yuur way since; eh. D.puty?" "Ah! And what' more, yer ain't no friend o' Jarsper s. What did bt go a-histing me off my legs for?" "What Indeed! But never mind him now. A shilling of mine is going your way to-night. Deputy. You have juat taken in a lodger I have been speaking to; an infirm woman with a cough." "Puffer," assents Deputy, with a shrewd leer of recognition, und smoking an Imaginary pipe, with his head very much on one side t-.nd his ey.-s much out of their places: "Hopeum Puffer." "What is her name?" " 'Er Koyal Highness the Princess Puffer." "She has some other name than that; where doe she live?" "Up In London. Among the Jacks." "The sailors?" "I said so; Jacks; and Chayner men; and hot her Knifers." "I should like to know, through you, exactly where she lives." "All right. (live us 'old." A shilling passes; and. in that spirit of confidence which should pervade all business trans actions betweea principals of honor, this piece ui uuaine.. is consKierea none. Hut nere s a lark. ' cries Deputy. "Where did y. r think 'Kr Koyal Hi-hr.-.-s is a-goln' to to-morrow morning.' tuest If she ain't a-goin' to tne K:n-rrec-.ier-el!"

He sighs over the contemplation of Its poverty, takes a bit of chalk from one of the cupboard shelves, and pauses with it in his hand, uncertain what addition to make to the account. "I think a moderate stroke." he concludos, "is all I am justified in scoring up; so, suits the action to the word, closes the cupboard, and goes to bed. A brilliant morning shines on the old city. Its antiquities and ruins are surpassingly beautiful, with a lusty ivy gleaming In the sun. and the rich trees waving in the balmy air. Changes of glorious light from moving boughs, bongs of birds, scents from gardens, woods, and fields or, rather, from the one great garden of the whole cultivated Island in its yielding time penetrate into the Cathedral, subdue its earthy odor, and preach the Resurrection and the L.ife. The cold stone tombs of centuries ago grow warm; and flecks of brightness dart Into the sternest marble corners of the building, lluttering there like wings. Comes Mr. Tope with his large keys, and yawnlngly unlocks and sets open. Come Mrs. Tope and attendant sweeping sprites. Come, in due time, organist and bellows-boy, peeping down from the red curtains In the loft, fearlessly Happing dust from books up at that remote elevation, and whisking it from stops and pedals. Come sundry rooks, from various quarters of the sky, back to the great tower; who may be presumed to enjoy vibration, and to know that bell and organ are going to give it them. Come a very small and straggling congregation Indeed: chiefly from Minor Canon Corner and the Precincts. Come Mr. Crlsparkle, fresh and bright; and his ministering brethren, not quite so fresh and bright. Come the Choir in a hurry I always In a hurry and struggling into their nightgowns at the last moment, like children shirking bed), and comes John Jasper leading their line. Last of all comes Mr. Datchery" Into a stall, one of. a choice empty collection very much at his service, and glancing about him for Her Royal Highness the Princess Puffer. The service is pretty well advanced before Mr. Datchery can discern Her Royal Highness. But by that time he has made her out. In the shade. She is behind a pillar, carefully withdrawn from the Choir-Master's view, but regards him with the closest attention. All unconscious of her presence, he chants and sings. She grins when he Is most musically fervid and yes, Mr. Datchery sees her do It! shakes her fist at him behind the pillar's friendly shelter. Mr. Datchery looks again, to convince himself. Yes. again! As ugly and withered as one of the fantastic carvings on the under brackets of the stall seats, as malignant as the Evil One. as hard as the big brass eagle holding the sacred books upon his wings and. according to the sculptor's representation of his ferocious attributes, not at all converted by them), she hugs herself In her lean arms, and then shakes hath fists at the leader of the Choir. And at that moment, outside the grated door of the Choir, having eluded the vigilance of Mr. Tope by shifty resources in which he is an adept, Deputy peeps, sharp-eyed, through the bars, and stares astounded from the threatener to the threatened. The services comes to an end. and the servitors disperse to breakfast. Mr. Datchery accosts his last new acquaintance outside, when the Choir tas much in a hurry to get their bedgowns off. as they were but now to get them on) have scuffled away. "Well, mistress. Good-morning. You have seen him?" "I've seen him. deary; I've seen him!" "And you know him?" "Knew him! Better far than all the Reverend Parsons put together know him." Mrs. Tope's care has spread a very neat, clean breakfast ready for her lodger. Before sitting down to it. he opens his corner-cup'ooard door; takes his bit of chalk from Its shelf; adds one thick line to tne score extending from the top of the cupboard door to the bottom; and then falls to with an appetite.
