OLD CHURCH IS OUTGROWN i ' - - - ... HE INFORMS WEST RICHMOND FRIENDS THAT LOGICAL PLACE I FOR NEW BUILDING 18 ON EARLHAM CAMPUS.

Members of the West Side Friends congregation, which congregation Is confronted with the problem of erect ing a meeting house, approve of the plan of Rev. Allan Jay, who believes that a, building, sufficiently large to accommodate the : Indiana Yearly Meeting attendance should be erected on Earlham college campus ? For the present the congregation will hold its meeting at the chapel; in tlndley hall but as soon as schbpl tkes "up in the fall other arrangements will have to be made. . "The East Main street Friends Meeting bouse is entirely too small for the large number who anuuull j- congregate to attend Yearly Meeting. It i3 the largest meeting house in the oity and has for years been -the. meeting place of Indiana Friends. , A Logical Plan., ' Rev.' Jay" believes-that if the' Yearly Meetings are held here in the future an addition will have to be placed on the church or else a new. one constructed. He believes' that' his plan" is the best and most logical. Nothing In regard to the- building plans have been, definitely decided upon. 1 This will be taken up. in the near future, as the leading members of the church i were unable to consider the matter just at the present time, owing to the preparations for the semi-centennial celebration of Earlham college. Professor Elbert Russell will probably have charge of the services. Dur ihg his absence this summer, as he intends taking a trip to England to deliver several lectures other members of the congregation will fill the pulpit.

WAS HARD TO SECURE JURY After a protracted: delay occupied by legal preliminaries the case of the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank of Bryant, Ind., vs. Benjamin F. Miller was called for trial in th Wayne circuit court this morningi "-"i The case is the result of. a deal between Miller and the bank In which the., bank obtained a large number of township trustee war rants. It is claimed the warrants were not worth the money "paid for them. The" plaintiff is represented by John L. Rupe and the defense is- in the hands of T. J. Study.. It required a long time to obtain a Jury.. Judge ; Fox- had stated beforshand it there were any farmers in the venire who wanted oft for this case, bo they might look after their crops he would excuse them. Several farmers took- advantage of this offer and were excused. Their places had to be taken by men from the city. The court says It would be a hardship to impose on the farmers, especially when men can be found about the city whose business does not require their constant at tention. , . ' A. large number of legal points are involved in the case an it is expect ed the trial will occupy the entira week. Several interesting phases of the law will be ruled upon." DOWNING ill DENIAL - In consequence of , erroneous re ports regarding my connection with the firm of Wilson, Pohlmeyer and Downing.

INTERESTING POINT Cemetery Case, to Be Argued Tomorrow, Involves -Law' Puzzles. , , ... . , .,. . (; -. CONDEMNATION OPPOSED

An interesting point of law will be argued before Judge. Fox in; the Wayne . circuit court tomorrow. The case of the Earlham Cemetery . association against Margaret Smith et al will be up for hearing on a preliminary point. It is v maintained by the defense that the Cemetery association has no power nor authority to condemn the property of the . defense; The property is the farm on which the Country . club is located. The Cemetery association seeks to have appraisers named and the property condemned, so that it can be acquired by purchase. It is undertaking to proceed under the section of law that gives railroad companies and other public service corporations the right to condemn, property. The defense insists the cemetery is not considered in a class with railroads. It will seek to maintain the cemetery is a private institution and exists for private gain. The defense claims also that the Smith farm is not necessary to the cemetery as it can extend its grounds so as to provide for a long time to come by pur chasing ground located south instead of west of the cemetery.

If you present a letter of credit at one of the great banks in Paris, like the Credit Lyonnais, an usher in livery receives you in a splendfd parlor like the soiou of a palace and bids you be seated in a sumptuous chair. Presently be brings you a check made put for the amount you demand for your signature. A quarter of an hour later he brings you the cash on a silver tray. You do not come in contact with the clerical force or see the inner workings at all. If you wish to cash a local check or get a bill changed you go to another waiting room, where an usher bands you a brass disk with a number stamped ; on it. As each number is called by a crier the bolder steps to a window and transacts his business. As the numbers are called In French it is quite essential to understand the language to that extent anyway. Travel Magazine. ' Lofty. Of the two celebrated barristers, Balfour and ErsUae, the former's style was gorgeously verbose, while the letter's, on the contrary, was crisp and vigorous. Coming into court one day, Erskine noticed that Balfour's ankle was bandaged. "Why, what's the matter T" asked Erskine. Instead of replying, "I fell from a gate," Balfour answered in his' nsual roundabout way. "I was taking a romantic ramble in my brother's garden, he said, -and on coming- to a gate I discovered that I had to climb over it, by which X came Into contact with the first bar and graced the epidermis of my leg. which has caused a slight r extravasation of the blood." Tou nay thank your lucky stars, replied Erskine. "that your brother's gate was act as lofty as your style or you would have broken your neck."

S. S. CONVENTION OVER

FINAL SESSION WAS HELD LAST EVENING AND BIG CROWD AT TENDSPRESIDENT BRYAN DID NOT COME. At the opening session of th Bap tist Young People's Union state convention at the First Baptist church. North Eleventh street, this morning Rev. W. G. Everson, pastor of the Col lege avenue Baptist church of Indianapolls, and formerly of this city, delivered the principal address. His sub ject was "Our Toung People and Evan gelism," in which he tried to point out that the young people had the knowledge and that they- should go out sni do the work. He believes it is unnecessary to have a thorough theological educatott in order to, do effective work. Two other addresses equally interesting were given. In the absence of Miss Hattle Berner, her paper was dispensed with and one prepared by Mrs. Robert Smith of this city was read by her husband, pastor of the church. Her subject was "Training and Bible Study." "Problems and their Solution As I See Them on the Field," was the subject of an interesting discourse by F. Earle McCracken of Franklin college, and field secretary of the B. Y. P. U. He eald that the danger Ilea in devoting all the time 'On Sunday evening observance, but not to the week evenings training courses. He thought that if more interest was taken in the latter there would be much better attended and more interesting Sunday evening discussions at meetings of the B. Y. P. U. Rev. J.. F. Fraser of Greensburg, who has had much success in the organization of Bible reading classes spoke on his .work at this afternoon's session. He encouraged the delegates present to adopt such methods. Rev. J. F. Rake of Crawfordsvllle lead in the devotional service. A round table talk was lead by Rev. F. G. Kenny of Indianapolis, at which all were invited ot ask whatever questions they pertained to the work. This discussion was indulged in freely and brought out many points of interest to all in attendance. Bryan Was Absent. The closing meeting of the State Sunday school convention of Baptist churches at this same meeting: place last evening was "largely attended. President Bryan was unable to be present. The principal address was that of Rev. F. E. Taylor, pastor of the First Baptist church of Indianapolis. His theme was "How Many Have You Led to Christ?" making an- appeal to Bunday school teachers and church members especially. BAPTIST NOTES. The fall meeting of the convention of the B. Y. P. U. of the Indiana Baptist churches will be held at South Bend. At this time the state officers will be elected and business consid ered. At the close of yesterday afternoon's session the delegates visited the Held Memorial church as the guests of the trustees. An organ recital of much merit was given by Mrs. Frederick Miller.

THREE YEARS' COURTSHIP New York. June 16. Smilin; and as happy, apparently, as the youngest of June bridal couples, Mrs. William Pierson Hazelton, a wealthy widow, seventy-six years old, of 93 Madison avenue, and her nephew.

James Brown Hazelton. seventy-two years of age. of Westueld. Mass., were married today in the brick Presbyterian church after a courtship of three years. "You see, Mr. Hazelton was the dearest of the many friends ot my dead husband," said Mrs. Hazelton, speaking of the courtship that led to the ceremony today. "He is my nephew by marriage and we have known each other ever since childhood. We used to play together. He has been a bachelor all his life. When my husband died we were both alone and. after due consideration we thought it best for each of us to take a mate." t . SOOTHING A HORSE. ft Ami mala Ka.r Introdaetlom t m Steaa Street nllr. In one of the broad uptown thorough fares a few days ago a mounted patrolman encountered a steam roller in action, and the horse was terribly frightened. It reared and balked and then made angles across the street, first one wsy and then the other, until the policeman jumped off and tried coaxing. Leading his mount step by step in the direction of the roller, which had come to a standstill, he petted the animal and talked to it, urging It forward. "A fine horse like you to be afraid of a steam roller," said the policeman. The luvree pricked up its ears and ventured ahead another step or two. "Come, now; come along. You can't be a policeman and be afraid of a bit of iron. Now come on, good boy." The horse made a few more steps for ward. "Come on." continued the policeman. "Now, then, be good. The department can't afford to be giving $300 apiece for horses that haven't any nerve. Come on, now. Coaxing it along in this way with in finite patience, the officer after several minutes got the animal up to the roller. The horse daintily put forward one foot and tapped the front of the iron wheel. waited moment and, finding that the machine did not kick or run, reared contemptuously and tapped the object with both feet, then wheeled and walked quietly away. The policeman re mounted, and it la safe to aay that horse will never bother about a steam roller again. New York Tost HISTORY OF SHOES. 1 la Ho Artlel ( Attire Umwm lie Xm varies Bee Sfcwa. Shoes or their equivalent are of a certainty even imore ancient than gloves, for they were a necessity of lo comotion, while the other was but a luxury. Sometimes they were made of skins, sometimes of papyrus, as In Egypt. Often they were gilded and decked with jewels, and the most ex pert artists of the day were employed to decorate the foot coverings of wealthy patricians, consuls, emperors and their favorites. In no article of at tire have more vagaries been shown. Todsy a lady who desires to be consid ered in the height of fashion wears shoes pointed as much as possible, but in the time of Queen Mary the taste was all the other way, and it was found necessary to Issue a royal precis matlon prohibiting shoes with toes wider than six inches. But perhaps the most extraordinary development In the way of footgear were the "chopines" In troduced by the ladles of Venice to make themselves taller than they really were. The articles were really a kind of stilts made of wood and leather and sometimes reached the absurd height of twelve Inches. Even a trained acrobat would have difficulty in walking on such things, and ordinary women had such trouble with them that when they attempted a promenade they required the assistance of a servant st each side and another behind to keep them from falling. From Redfern's "Royal and Historic Shoes." Taaaa Stevsas Wit. When Tbaddeus Stevens had taken to his bed for the last time ji visitor told him he was looking welL "Oh. John," was the quick reply, "it is not my appearance, but my disappearance. that troubles me!" One day a mem ber of the bouse of representatives who was noted for his uncertain course on all questions and who confessed that be never investigated a point under discussion without finding , himself a neutral asked for leave of absence. "Mr. Speaker." said Stevens, "I do not rise to object, but to suggest that the honorable member need not ask this favor, for he can easily pair off with himself V TerreCte, Ecera Trccdca Co.
