News was received her Sunday of the death of the Rev. Alexander Gilchrist, D. D., of the United Preiby-

trian church at Pittsburg, Pa. Funeral services will be held Tuesday evening at Pittsburg. The body will then be brought here for interment and general services will be held on Thursday in the Reid Meinoiial church of this city.

The deceased was born March 25, 1856 at West Hebron, Washington count N". Y. He graduated from Wooster University, 1879 and graduated in theology at the Allegheny seminary, Allegheny, Pa., 1S91, and was licensed to preach June 7th, 1S81 by Allegheny Presbytery. The Richmond Indiana congregation called him to their pastorate and on June 3, 1881 he was ordained pastor of the congregation. The membership was fifty when the pastorate began and practically disorganized and a very small Sabbath school, but within a year the congregation was well organized in all its departments and each quarterly communion was marked with goodly numbers of new members. The end of the first year showed an increase of forty five members. This prosperous condition continued for thirteen and one'half years throughout his pastorate. Tre congregation was receiving aid from the boards at the beginning of Rev. Gil

christ's pastorate but very soon became self-supporting and indeed contributed to the various boards of the

church. Rev. Gilchrist being a man of

more than ordinary ability soon became prominent in church work in Richmond and throughout the United Presbyterian church. He took an ac

tive part in the various reform move

ments in city and state, was always

identified with every good cause which had for its object the betterment of the social and moral life in Richmond and notwithstanding the unmistakable attitude he bore to all

forms of evil and the perpetrators, he made hosts of friends in and out of church.

He was united in marriage October

22nd, 1883, to Miss Cora Seaton,

daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. A. Sea-

ton of Richmond. On October 11, 1895 he accepted a call to Central church, Omaha, Ne braska and preached his first sermon there November 20. 1895. Richmoud congregation and citizens were broken hearted over his removal to Omaha and it was a "great trial to both when the day of separation came. Rev. Gilchrist remarked that had he known it would be so, he could not have consented to leave. The Degree of D. D. Doctor or Divinity was conferred in 1892. ' On June 2Sth, 1S99, after nearly four years of most prosperous pastorate of Central church, Omaha, he left that field to fill the most important perhaps of the whole church, corresponding secretary of the board of home missions with headquarters at Pittsburg, Pa., which office he has filled to the highest satisfaction of 'the church. The following extracts are taken from General Assembly minutes for 190G on home mission board report. "The year just closing has been one I

of unusual success in the work; the record showing greater progress and gains than in any previous year in our history. "There was a total increase of S.469 in the membership of the missions. The number received upon profession of faith was 1.937. The net gain was 2.297, 13.4 per cent. "There was a very substantial and considerable extension of the work; 18 new missions were enrolled and many other fields investigated with a view to entering them as soon as it shall be practicable to do so; 12 missions passed from the -list of dependent stations." Dr. Gilchrist wrote a book for the home mission board entitled "Our Country and Our Church." designed for the use of young peoples societies in their mission studies. Seven thousand copies were quickly taken and were the means of better informing our people and awakening a deeper interest in home mission work. General assembly passed a resolution

ind more a burden. In dpfense of

the municipal plant it is cited that electricity is within the reach of the

general public and that the city has light in great abundance. "There has been a suggestion that Richmond buy or build a waterworks plant, but very few indorse a plan of this kind, and there is some doubt as to whether the public would again vote for ownership of a light plant in view of what has developed since the vote was so overwhelmingly for it.". The Palladium has ascertained that the story came from the same source as the one which was sent from Richmond to the Indianapolis News, concerning the local light plant situation, and which "Billy" Blodgett alleged was one of a series of letters sent out by the light trust's news bureau. According to Blodgett, the Richmond Light, Heat and Power company is a part of the light trust try ing to get control of numerous plants in the state, and which has as one of its first objects, the destruction of municipal ventures.

CITY ftUD COUNTY

THAT ROAD HAS QUIT CARRYING FREIGHT IN OR OUT OF THE CITY LEGAL ACTION TO BE TAKEN.

That the board of works lnipnas to enforce the ordinance prohibiting the carrying of freight on Main street by the interurban railways was made evident yesterday morning when two arrests of the freight car employes were made. Oliver E. Hill, motorman and Riley Cook, conductor of the Indianapolis and Eastern freight car that arrived at S:30 a. m. from Greenfield were arrested by patrolmen Winters and Lawler and taken before City Judge, Will Converse. They entered pleas of not guilty but agreed that no evidence should be introduced and the records showed a finding of guilty. They were given fines of $20 and costs. Both Cook and Hill said that they expected to be arrested upon their arrival in Richmond yesterday morning but that they had no orders to vary from the usual schedule. Conductor Cook was arrested and released Saturday for the violation of the same ordinance. John F. Robbins, attorney of the Indianapolis and Eastern, filed an appeal bond to Insure the appearance in circuit court of the defendants on the first day of the April term of court, or at any other term that may be agreed upon. Many thing the decision that the circuit court may hand down will not, however, be the solution of this question. The city officials are not worrying about the out come -of the question. They say that if the Indianapolis and Eastern officials are willing to keep on paying fines for all of their employes arrested it will be all well and good with them. They desire however, that a test case be made of the ordinance. The Dayton and Western officials are pursuing a different policy from that of the Indianapolis and Eastern. They have declared that no more freight will be hauled to or from Richmond and have issued orders to that effect. How long they will be allowed to operate their lines with this discrimination made against the Richmond freight business will depend much upon the length of the illness of Prosecutor Jessup who is expected to take action as soon as he recovers.
