A DISAPPEARANCE RECALLED. Purported Confession of a Mnvdec, Happening Many Years Ago. Special to The Indianapolis News. Elkhart, September 6.—On September 4, 1864, Charles Harding, a resident of this city, mysteriously disappeared, and as time elapsed and there was no clew to his whereabouts, the belief became general that the missing man had become the victim of foul play. Harding’s murderer was never apprehended and the first step in the solution of the mystery was the finding yesterday of the following writ-

ten confession:

"Elkhart, Ind., September 14, 1861.—I hereby confess to the murder of one Charles Harding, in the said city of Elkhart, Elkhart county, September 7, 1864. When this is found I will be a corpse In Simonton’s lake. The body of Harding is buried in the big woods west of the City. ROBERT KARNBY.” On the outside of the time-worn and finger-marked confession was a request that the finder deliver the same at the police headquarters, which was done. Every effort will be made to verify the strange and sehsatlonal confession. Officer Martin, of the police force, recalls the circumstances of a man’s disappearance, mentioned by Karney, and his story has thus far the semblance of truth. DELinlot* WITH FEVER.

Special to The Indianapolis News. Peru. September 6.—The first free street Fhir ever held In Indiana will take place in this city next week. September 10 to 15, inclusive.

The Democrats Jabilant.

The managers of the Democratic partyin this State are congratulating themselves on having been able to arrange with the managers of the Republican party this series of joint debates. A member of the State committee say-s that when the original challenge for a joint meeting at Greencaatle between Mr. Myers and Mr. Owen was sent by Chairman Taggart, the Democratic committee did not imagine that the Republican committee would accept it, much less suggest a

series of joint debates.

Some of the Democratic committeemen are saying to their friends that the Republican committee has been kind enough to open a way by which the dissatisfied Democratic voters can be got back Into line before election day. The Democratic managers have been puzzled all along to understand how they were to pacify the many dissatisfied Democratic voters. They were discussing this subject, and particularly the dissatisfaction that existed among Democrats in the Fifth congressional district, when it was suggested that if a few Joint meetings between Democratic and Republican speakers could be arranged, the dissatisfied Democrats would soon be discussinc

Womlerful Work Accomplished By the Church Extension Society.

New sideboards at William L. Elder’s.

Special to The Indianapolis News. Lafayette, Setember 6.—Last evening Trinity M. E. church was filled by r an audience drawn out to hear the address of the Rev. Manly 8. Hard, general secretary of the Church Extension Society. Mr. Hard is w-ell known to the Methodist clergy of this country, for no pent-up Utica circumscribes his territory; the unbounded universe is his field of operation, and well he cultivates the field. Starting out with the broad assertion that no element In society can be entirely independent of its surroundings, Mr. Hard said If the«gospel was to go to the ends of the earth It must have hands ar.d feet to go with, and to travel required money. The Board of Church Extension did two things—it gave money to assist in the construction of houses of worship, and it loaned money to struggling congregations to enable them to obtain a footing. Where money was loaned the society required an obligation to keep the building insured, in orde, that the society should recover its lf„.,i In the event of a fire. If. for any reason, the building changed denominational owners, the money must be returned. The object of the board was to get a place for the worship of God—a place where preacher and people could meet to worship. He related an instance where a young man in his home had placed $5,000 in the hands of the society as a memorial for his parents. He preferred this course to erecting costly monuments of brass or stone over their graves. This money had been used in partially erecting twentyfour churches, with a seating capacity of 3.300 persons. As fast as the congregation was able the money was paid back, and it was at once put out in aid of other churches. Statistics showed that the bulk of all religious conversions were made at the church altar, hence the desire to erect houses of worship. Referring to the work thus far accomplished by the Extension Society. Mr. Hard said there had been brought into existence, through the instrumentality of the board during the last twenty-seven

yean, 9,331 churches. Placed In a row with a frontage of thirty feet they would extend over sixty miles. If the Sundayschools averaged fifty pupils (and he said they would run over that number) it would make ’jM.550 scholars brought Into the houses of God. These scholars, placed in a line sixteen to the rod, would make a double row eighty-seven and or.e-half miles in length. He had been asked how much money the Extension Board had sent to Bulgaria. He stated that not a dollar of this money could be sent out of the United States—not a dollar expended anywhere on earth over wntch the glorious flag of America did not float. But there was ample field In which tc work In the United States, when every resident of the country could be given several rods of land in Kansas alone, and there would still be unoccupied lands in that State, or Texas could give three and one-half acres to every resident, and still have plenty left. In the State of Kansas, he said, the Methodist church had 731 churches, and of this number the Board of Extension had aided, in one way or another, all but fifty-two Referring to the work among the colored people, Mr. Hard paid them high eulogy for their piety and sincerity, and spoke commendingly of their liberality in raising funds for the church extensions. He said there was to-day a little army of 7,000 persons who were pledged to give $10 each year to this church work. He was steadily increasing this number. He made an earnest appeal to the ministry and the laity to make liberal donations in this direction, and cited instance after instance of the great good accomplished by the advances made by the society, thereby inducting the starting of the church. They hi* to have a beginning. As citing the necessity of still further extensions, Mr. Hard related that but recently a young pastor in a Florida conference had assured him that there were to-day families in that State where there were children fourteen and sixteen years old who had never been inside a house of worship. He thought there was still an ample field in which to work. Mr. Hard goes from Lafayette to Chicago, where he expected to make an address to-day, going from there to the far est. A number of cards were distributed through the congregation, asking for signatures of those who were •willing to pledge themselves to do all they could to raise S10 during the coming year for the church extension fund. A BRAKEMAN’S INJURIES.

fled Democrats would soon be discussing politics with their Republican friends and would "come around" all right before

election day. . The outcome of the discussion was that Mr. Taggart sent to the Republican committee a challenge for a debate at Oreencastle between Myers and Mr.

Owen. The Democrat^ believed the Republican committee would decline to accept the challenge, and that the letter should lead to the making of arrange-

ments for a joint debate in each con-

gressional district is a seven days’ won-

der to the Democratic managers.

Effect of Joint Debate*.

Said a member of the Democratic committee: “Our only object in proposing a joint debate was that Democrats who are threatening to either stay at home or to vote against the Democratic nominees might be brought back into line. It is the experience of old political managers that nothing will cement the members of a party like a joint debate. The dissatisfied voters will go out and hear the speeches, and, after the speakers have gone, there is always more or less discussion as to which got the best of the argument. The dissatisfied voter will soon find himself taking sides, and before he known it he will be upholding the man who represented the party with which he has been affiliated. The Democrats of Indiana need something to arouse them this year, and these thirteen debates between Mr. Myers and Mr. Owen will do it. The only good that can come out of a joint debate is party unification. Converts are not made. Suppose. for instance. Mr. Myers should be beaten at every turn in this coming series of joint debates, the Democrats would still be the gainers. The announcement that Mr. Owen had the best of the argument would make every Democrat mad, and immediately he would be out talking and working for

his party.”

Members of the Democratic committee say that the Republicans have everything to lose and nothing to gain by taking part in the joint debate: that if the Republicans carry Indiana this fall they must depend upon Democratic votes. The elections in this State in recent years, they say, has demonstrated that Indiana is a Democratic State. Why the Republican committee should consent to an arrangement that will, as politicians have always maintained, drive men within party lines, they can not understand. The Democrats, having found the Republican managers so willing to enter into an arrangement for a senes of joi debates between the heads of the tickets, are now trying to arrange for joint discussions between candidates for Con-

gress.

Seventy counties have reported the increase in the number of voters over those of two years ago; but the exoeeted total increase has not developed. It is believed that in many counties the officers have not taken the pains to Investigate the actual increase, but have submitted old figures. As two tickets are furnished for every voter, there is no danger that there will be a scarcity of ballots, although th* returns be not correct. Folittcal Note*. Dr. O. B. Pettijohn says that he is not a candidate for nomination for member of the Legislature as has been announced. N. W. INDIANA CONFERENCE.

PERSONAL AND SOCIAL.

THE Y. M. G. A MEETING.

Robert Thompson, a Big Four brakeman, is lying at St. Vincent’s Hospital unconscious and seriously injured. He lives at Muncie and boards, while in Indianapolis, at 99 Lexington avenue. He is twenty-six years old. This morning he was standing on a freight car as his train went over White river bridge. Workmen were painting the bridge. A scaffold on which they had been standing while at work hung from the bridge Umbers across the track. As Thompson’s car approached the scaffold men called out a warning to Thompson. He turned to see the danger, and was at that instant struck by the swinging scaffold. He fell like a dead man to the top of the car, but did not roll off the car. The city dispensary physicians were called, and Thompson was taken to the hospital. TRIAL OF WINNIE SMITH May Not Take Place Till October— Attorney* Engaged in Other Ca*e*. Deputy Prosecutor Charles Cox says that it is not likely that the case of Winnie Smith, indicted for murder in the first degree, will come to trial this month. At first it was thought Uiat the case could be tried before the attorneys interested began work on the case of Schuyler C. Haughey, but this was found to be impracticable. Mr. Cox tried to arrange the date with John S. Duncan, attorney for the defense, yesterday, but found <that Mr. Duncan would hardly be able to give his attention to the case this month. On the 17-th Mr. Duncan is engaged in the Paris bank case, which will probably last nearly two weeks. It is thought now that Use Smith else can not be reached until some time in October, Cltorcli of God Revival Meeting*. Revival services are being conducted by the Church of God at the new Bethel church at Legrand avenue and Leonard street. Meetings are held each evening except Saturday. Real Estate Sale. C. F. Sayles has sold his old residence 712 North Delaware street, to Jefferson H. Claypool, who has occupied it during the past year, for $15,000. The lot is 85 by 210 feet.

Dr. Charles Eastman, the Sioux Indian, whose marriage to Elaine Goodale, the poet of New England, three years ago, attracted attention and comment from ail sections of the country. Elaine Goodale. it will be remembered, was one of the sisters who lived on the Sky farm, on Mt. Washington, Berkshire county, Massachusetts, and wrote poetry of considerable merit. When eight years old she began the publication of a little paper called Sky Farm Life, In which she and her sister published their poems from month to month. The precocity of them both was such as to become the subject for psychological speculation. Several volumes of poems by the sisters appeared. Elaine Goodale afterward became interested in the Indian schools of the West, and entered one of them as a teacher. Sh# fell in love with Charles Eastman, and after he was educated in the East they were married. At the Y. M. C. A. parlors, whefe he spent the morning, Dr. Eastman was the observed of all observers. He is a young man of more than average bight. His complexion is swarthy and his hair raven black. His dark, piercing eyes and his high cheek bones, together with his erect carriage, mark his race beyond mistake. The object of his visit to Indianapolis is to gain knowledge as to the way in which the 1'. M. C. A. secretaries transact their business. The secretaries from over the State, however, were quite as anxious to know from Dr. Eastman what Is being done by the association in its work among the Indians. This department of the Y. M. C. A. work was only recently organized. "At the last meeting of the international committee,” said Dr. Eastman, speaking slowly, but with distinctness, “the Indian department was created, and I was made the secretary of it. At present we have thirty-five Young Men’s Christian Associations among the Indians in the West and elsewhere. Three of these associations are in Government sehools—one at Carlisle, Pa., one at Haskell Institute, Lawrence, Kas., and one at Genoa, Neb. No, I’m not able to say just how many members we have, but they number about five hundred. These Indian associations are much like those among the whites; Where there are no churches they hold njissionary services. They visit the sick and take care of the old. All are actively engaged In getting more money" and more members for the association.” DAILY CITY' STATISTICS. Rirtli Return*. Thos. J. and Julia Ratcliffe, 66 Lynn ave.. boy.
