Made Ono Organization.

Terre Haute, Ind., Oct. 31. —At the Baptist State convention yesterday the proposal for a union of the four Baptist bodies going to make up the convention was adopted and the association will hereafter be known as the Baptist State convention. This unites the church, Sunday school, B. Y. P. U., and mission interests all in one organization. A committee was appointed to secure its Incorporation. Rev. Albert Ogle, of Indianapolis, superintendent of state mission work, made a report. He said there were still twenty-four cdunty seats and seventy-five towns and villages of from 500 to 1,500 population in the state without Baptist churches. The work was going vigorously, however. The convention elected the Rev. C. M. Carter, Lafayette, president.
