RUBEN’S Bates House MJSFTT P |Tns tallor-Made Sutta

A small but appreciative audience gath-t-red at the Central-avenue Methodist church last night to hear the Rev. Wilbur Crafts, of Washington, superintendent of the Reform league, deliver a lecture on “What Indianapolis Can Learn from Recent Reforms in Other Cities.’’ Dr. Crafts opened his lecture with the statement that Christ’s mission on earth had a political as well as social significance, but that in the present day the political phase of tt had rather been lost sight of, and if the question. “Where is He that was born King?" were asked in the City Hall it would create even more consternation than it did when asked outside the gates of Jerusalem. This does not signify that the world is growing worse, however, for in contrasting the cities of the present with those of the past, both po iticalfy and socially. It can be readily seen that the age of progress and development has made the world better. It simply means that the political development has not kept pace with the social; that the religious growth has far outstripped the pr.litical. Society should be measured from the top crust, for it is that upper

strata which dominates the world.

The municipal government should be in the hands of Christ-like men. Dr. Crafts said. In that way only can politics ever reach its proper position. These reforms oan not be made in a day. It has become the fashion for the best element of eociety to eschew' municipal politics as something more or less unclean, and it is only by education that this feeling can be removed. The importance of municipal government has up to within the last few' years been entirely overlooked in our public schools, and the average boy when he left school knew more about the government of Rome and Athens than he did about his own city government. Here is where the mistake has been made, and here is where the remedy lies for the political evils of the country. The study of murficipal affairs should become one of the principal studies In the schools, and the importance of good, clean government and how to obtiin It should be thoroughly Impressed , oh the minds of our youths, the speaker urged. This has been done in several cities In the country, and already the beneficial (results are noticeable. Toronto is the best governed city on this continent, and municipal politics has for several years been a prominent study in the schools of that city. The necessity for God-like men in politics has been felt there, and such men have responded to the call. ' • , , , Dr. Crafts said that he had probably less to say to Indianapolis people than to Dose of any other city, as tlndlanapolis had for the last two years been one of h!s leading examples of what can be donq in the way of municipal reform with honest and fearless men In office. For that reason the people probably had less to learn from the reforms in other cities, except in a generaP way. They can, however, learn how to continue the good Tvwk already begun. The speaker cited six ways by which a good, clean city government can be obtained. (1) By electing a mayor who will be true, to his oath, regardless of his political environment. (2) By having a prope; police department, with a chief who knows and does his duty, and with police commlsaioners who will enforce the laws to the very letter. He gave as an example of a brave and fearless police board that of New York, and spoke in warm terms of Theodore Roosevelt and the wonderful reform which he has Instituted In that city. (3) The way In which a proper municipal government can be obtained l r in the election of a sheriff, who will fulfill the duties of his office, and enforce the law. (4) Through the election of a governor who will demand a clean administration from those under him. (I) end (8) By electing judges and prosecutors who will bravely and honestly fill the positions to which they are elected. Of course, the fundamental principle underlying all these reforms, he sal<k Is to get good men to enter the political arena, and until that is done the attempts will be spasmodic, and do little real good. There are more good men in a community than bad, and it is the duty of this better element to take the political government in their qwn hands and make the political growth of this country

commensurate with the social. LINCOLN PARK CHAPEL. *.

Dedication of the New Interdenoml-

natioul Church—The Addressees.

Mayor Danny was the principal speaker at the dedication of the Lincoln Park .Union chapel yesterday afternoon. He said that Indianapolis, instead of being cafled the railroad city, should be called the city of churches. The city now has 150 churches, 175 Sunday-schools and 30,000 ofcildren who attend Sunday-school regularly. He doubted if tlyre was another city In the country that was composed of so large a proportion of church-going. God-fearing people. He thought the building of an interdenominational church was a step in the right direction. It was a good omen. He found cause for optimism In the signs of the times. Denominational lines had about disappeared, and the people of the civilized world were coming to an appreciation of the Christian

ttuth.'.

The Rev. C. N. Sims, of Meridian-street M. E. church, spoke In commendation of the work and submitted a statement Showing that the association needed about $1,500 to- put It clear out of debt. In a short time $800 was subscribed. The association will endeavor to raise mohey enough this week to free it from debt. Several of the city churches were represented In the dedicatory exercises. The Rev. Joseph Littell, pastor of the United Presbyterian church, made the opening prayer, and the Rev. G. A. Carstensen, rector of St. Paul’s Episcopal church, offered a prayer of thanksgiving. The Rev. D. It. VanBuskirk represented the Christian church, F. W, Douglass the Baptist, and John Shearman, th* Friends. Andrew Smith sang a soto, and there was also special music by Mrs. Arthur Lash. Mra. E. E. Pray, Crawford Thomas and G. M. Spiegel. Presbyterian Pntplt Exchanges.

Here they VJ are—right in the heart of the, season—just when you want them most—at prices, in many cases, less than the materials can Ire bought for in a retail way., NO USE to go into lengthy details of this Big Deal; suffice to say they were closed out from one of New York’s Largest Manufacturers who, becoming financially involved, HAD TO SELL AT A BIO SACRIFICE.

POGUE’S RUN OVERFLOW.

City Engineer Preparing;«» Report On the Subject.

PICKED UP IN PASSING.

The city engineer ban been examining the effect* of the recent overflow of Pogue's run, and Is making a report on what will be necessary to prevent floods in the future. He has estimated rouglily that to put the run In proper dondition would cost about $600,000. The present Board of Public Works wishes to leave with its successors the city engineer’s report, together with an opinion from the city attorney as to how the proper assessment can be made, should the permanent Improvement of the run be undertaken, converting it Into a drain partly open and partly closed. The board has asked the attorney to prepare an opinion as to the assessment for the drain. It suggested that an assessment of threefifths of the cost against the Pogue’s run water-sned In the city, one-fifth against the city, generally and one-tlfth against territory benefited outside of the city would probably be equitable. If legal.

•T have just found why members of my famlly, including myself, feel aristocratic.” The speaker was J. W. Elstun, of Irvington. “In the custody of a branch of the family is a leather pocketbook which was given by George Washington, when he was commander-in-chief of the Colonial armies to a second cousin, whom he found among the privates of his command. That cpus.n was George Brown, a cousin of one of my parents, and I figure out that I must be a fourth cousin of George Washington.” Admiral George Brown Is a descendant of the Revolutionary George. Three pistol shots were heard in quick succession near the police station. Then a voice was heard exclaiming: “If he la not dead, give it to him again.” The 'people who ran over to the station learned the cause of the shots. A mask had brought a dog there to be killed. Joe Stevens fired three bullets into the dog, and thought he had killed him. But he was mistaken, for the animal started on a run. Patrolman Duty caught up a hatchet and sunk it Into the poor brute’s head. This'was not enough, and Stevens plunged a sheath knife through the dog s heart + Where Street* Are Good.
