More Mormon Elders Arrive.

Ten more Mormon elders arrived here this forenoon and joined the two who came Tuesday, thus making twelve in all. The two who go in advance make some of their journeys by trata, but the others do their missionary work on foot. This party of ten men have traveled in this way from Indianapolis to the north end of tne state, and back this far southward. Their next line of march is t 6 Lebanon, this state. They travel two by two in old apostolic method, making about 10 or 15 miles a day, doing missionary work along the country and usually figuring to be in some town at night to hold meetings. These Riders are all young and vigorous men, as they need to be in tneir method of work, and evidently very sincere and zealous in their religious j belief. Quite a number of good singers are among them and their meeting bills give an attractive musical program.
