AM ANNIVERSARY.

Twanty-third Year of the Y. M. C. A.—The

Meeting Uwt Night.

At Meridian street M. E. church last evening was held the twentv-thlrd anniversary meeting of the Indianapolis Y. M. G. A„ opening with a scripture lesson by Rev. 0. ff.'Raymond and prayer by ’ Rev. I. N. Carman. Mr. K. 8. Field, president of the organization, presented the report of the work tor the past year. The debt on current expenses is less now than at the dose of 1876, and from the rental of the building interest has been paid and the bonded debt decreased to the extent of about $850.. The chapel has been remodeled and enlarged, four rooms previously unoccupied have been transformed into pleasant and useful parlors, and other changes have been made which have greatly improved the rooms and added to their conveniences, much of which has been accomplished throngh the aid rendered by lady friends of the aasodaUen. Reference was made to the good work oone in closing the Sunday night performances at the Metropol itan theater, with thanks tb the attorn who aided the association without charge tor their sen-ices. The total number of religious services conducted under the direction of the association during the year waa 1,352, and the.total Attendance 80,000. An appeal was made for workers who believe In carrying the wrfr into the enemy’s camp. Cordial sympathy was expressed with the work of the Women’s Christian temperance hnion, the Flower mission, Women’s Christian association, the sewing school, and the Youth’s

Christian association.

Mr. B. F. Jacobs, of Chicago, addressed the meeting. He said* that some people are afraid that some one not having authority will tell the story of Christ’s love, and fernnow, as it waa feared 20 years ago, that the Y. M-v C. A. will interfere with some one of the denominations. Some people are alarmed at the influence of union meetings. He had never known any one injured except by remaining out of them. The church can not do the work by means of the ordained ministry alone. It is a recognized fact that there are no more Christians in proportion to the population of the world now than there were at the end of the first century. There is no doubt about our authority to

work for Christ. *

Rev. Dh Bayliss then spoke. He approved of the work of the-association because it was a fdeparture from the old priestly idea of ministration which pervaded the Jewish system, and has come into the protestaut churches. We want to get away from the thought of ministers doing tfie work; they are not numerous enough ( Somebody else mnst do it, and thf young men and maidens are beginning to recognize their duty and privilege. Besides these associations, go to the very classes which the churches nave practically given up as hopeless. The elation is teaching the churches, and we are getting rid of the awful stateliness of the pulpit The asSbciation needs supportmoney, prayers and workers—all of which the churches can afford to supply.

Need Watching.

About November lit, a gentleman brought a watch to W. H. Craft, jeweler, and asked what it.was worth. . The watch was examined and Hie inquirer was told that its value was $125,'upon which ho said that it had been offered to him at $40. Mr. Shannon, a clerk in the store, then drew the sales register on the gentleman and told him the Watch had been stolen from that establishment, which is the only house in the town that sells that particular kind ot time keeper, and demanded the name of the person who had offered it at snch a figure. The' gentleman left the watch, returning in a short lime with a young man, who was taken aside by Mr. Craft and divulged that he bought the watch of a man whom he met on Indiana avenue, giving him $35 for it. He did not know the man having never seen him before or since. So Mr. C. held the watch. Mr. Ralph Tonsey who had a chronometer stolen from him oh the day of Morton’s funeral, next put in an appearance, thinking^he watch his as indeed there is a probability that it is, as his time piece was of the same pattern, though so far he has not been able to prove property. Then a host of detectives, anxious to make $50 for the recovery of the Tonsey watch came in

This Was a proceeding supplementary to execution, under secs. 518 and S£i of the Practice act, 2 B. 8. 18T6, 228 and 23U Trial by the court,* and a finding that at the time of the service of process the appellant, the bank, had on deposit to the credit of the appellant O’Brien, and was indebted to him, in the sum of 8983.85 which ought to be applied on appellee’s judgment. Motion for a new trial overruled. We think the finding of the court wasnotsuatained by sufficient evidence. The admisMon of the written answer of the bank, verified by the president, that it had money belonging to O’Brien in Its possesrton, was erroneous. Such gx parte statement, though verified by oath was not competent evidence against the appellant O’Brien. He had a right to cross examine thi president of the bank, and by such means he I

shown that the money

peared to his credit, in said bank, though nominally his, was really the property of other, persons. It was shown by the evidence that the money in question was not O’Brien’* property, but belonged to some Infant heirs of whom he was the legal guardian. The court erred In Its finding and judgement that the bank should apply the

money In question to the payment of O’B personal debts. J udgement reversed.

- _ - Mixing Value*. | The other day a man rushed into Olem’s grocery, on Massachusetts avenue, and asked changed tor a five-dollar note. A bystander accommodated hkn with ten silver pieces, and the man departed with his change. He had scarcely gone before the money changer found tiiat he bad given away ten one dollar pieces, mistaking them for fifty cent coins. He had begun to tear out his hair upon the

itiaetiyery, with a fair show of demolishing his entire capillary crop, when the five dollar man, who had discovered the mistake, returned-and pacified him by paying back the overplus. • * *

Held, There ia no ground for relief In these allegations; besides, a full, true and complete transcript o! the judgment is not before us in the complaint.

C- Affirmed, Worden, J.

This .waaon action by the appellee against the appelant for breach of a contract to .marry. Issue, trial by jury, verdict and judgment for the plain-

tiff, and appeal to this court.

Hold, 1. An action, for a breach of marriage contract will lie. We have adopted this principle as a portpt the common law. Our statute has roeog-

circuit tstat-

i as fol-

lows, does not apply to contracts of this character: •‘To charge any person, upon any agreement or promise,ouade in consideration of marriage.” And, therefore, that such contracts need not necessarily be in writing. The clause quoted applies only to contract* made in consideration of marriage 'and has so bearing on this case. (2 Chitty, U am. ed. 791; 2* Conn., 4S5; 1 Bland 284). The Sw iffwell settled on this point, and the complaint wa* good. Held, 8. That even though the plaintiff did introduce evidence to establish her character' for chastity, the defendant could not Introduce in evidfnee the statement of a person then dead that he bad had sexual intercourse with (jer. Such testimony was only hearsay, and was clearly incompolield, 4. That an instruction of the cotart below, substantially, that if‘the evidence going to show * sedifftion or illicit intercourse between the parties tended to prove or disprove, the issue, it was to be considered, was not erroneous. This must be true of all competent evidence which tends to prove or disprove the issue: and no question is made as to the competency of the record. There is no error In
