GREENCASTLE CHAUTAUQUA

S. K. WlmJiell of Kvanston, Visits City and Makes Inquiry as to the Possibilities of Success. S. R. Wiuchell, of the Winchell lecture and Entertainment Bureau, was in town Mon. morning attempting to arouse enthusiasm for the establishment of a summer Chautauqua here. Mr. Wiuchell talked with a number of the business men and called upon the officers of the Business Men’s Association and upon Dr. Hughes. He did not receive much encouragement, though his scheme looked good to some. Mr. Winchell had in mind to hold the Chautauqua upon the college grounds and if this was not possible, then in the Bence Woods on Franklin Street. A ten days’ meeting is proposed as a starter, with a lengthened program next year if this movement proves popular. Mr. Winchell personally establishes these chautauquas and looks after the hooking of the talent. He slated that it would be possible to bring some excellent numbers to Greencastle. He had not at the time of leaving the city made any final decision in the matter.

M’IM.E DEALERS HARD HIT. Early last fall the people of this section of the country were up against what appeared to have been an apple famine and no reason was advanced for the scarcity of the fruit other than "poor crops.” Recent development in the market in the east which seems to affect the dealers in this part of the country, show that while the crop of apples last year was not so abundant as in former years, there was a sufficient supply to serve the people at reasonable prices. But this w-as not the light in which the wholesale dealers looked at the problem, and soon a general hoarding of the apples began, particularly by dealers in Michigan and New York, with the result that today those plungers have on their hands a very great supply and are unable to get rid of the same, with the result that losses which run Into thousands have occurred.

Many Indianapolis Organizations Take Part in the Funeral Rites of Dr. F. W. Hays Who Died at Los Angeles.

CHECKS NOT ACCEPTABLE Postmasters have been instructed by Postoffice Inspector Moore to receive no more checks In payment for money orders. The ruling was made to dispense with extra work and responsibility on the part of the department. Heretofore it has been the custom of persons sending money by mail to give the postmaster a check for the amount of the money order, and it was up to the Postmaster to make good in case such checks were protested. To protect the postmaster and to avoid additional and unnecessary trouble, led the department to make the recent ruling.

PRAISE FOR REV. OSTRUM

Attracted More People Than the Republican National Convention— Movement to Have the Largest Building Built for the Export Exposition Remodeled for the I'm* of Mr. Ostroin. /

ADDRESSED 4.000 BUSINESS MEN

Philadelphia, Pa.—A man from Indiana has created a religious sensation in this city not equaled by Moody and Sankey, Hammond, the wonder worker; Torry and Alexander or by any one of the fifty evangelists who are now engaged in a simultaneous campaign for Christ in Philadelphia. The man from Indiana is the Rev. Henry Ostrom cf Greencastle. The simultaneous movement was organized for the Rev. Dr. J. Wilbur chapman, who brought with him into the movement Dr. Ostrom and fifty other world-famous evangelists. Dr. Ostrom was assigned to the Twenty-fourth District, with headquarters irt the Central Congregational Church, Eighteenth and Green Streets. A more unlikely location for successf*! evangelical work could not have been selected. An effort is now being made to have the greatest building erected for the Export Exposition, into which 30,000 people can be crowded, remodeled for the use of Dr. Ostrom. Scenes of the wildest excitement and pathetic incidents almost heart rending mark each of these services. Dr. Ostrom is now engaged in the preliminary work looking to a simultaneous campaign for Christ throughout the world. He proposes to establish an inter--national headquarters for this movement either in Terre Haute or Indianapolis and to establish branch offices in all of the capitals of Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. His idea is to organize a force of 5,000 evangelists, singers, musicians and journalists under a common head and to devote eighteen months ta organizing the working forces and to distribute the literature and specific instructions to the house-to-house workers who are literally expoctel to canvass the world for Christ during a period of two weeks, eighteen months hence. Dr. Ostrom estimates that the cost of this work will be upward of $1,500,000 and upon his return to Indiana he will set about to raise this money.

POKER GAME IS RAIDED At near 4:30 o’clock Saturday afternoon Marshal Reeves and Policemen Stone and Grimes raided a poker game in the Goodwine building and arrested six men who were playing. When the men were takeil before the Mayor, James Dean, one of the players, said he would plead guilty to the charge and pay a fine provided the eases against the other men were dismos'ked. As the officers had only little evidence against the men, the Mayor consented. Mr. Dean was fined $5 and costs of $ 10 which he paid. The other five men were allowed to go.

Saved From Rcing a Cripple for Life “Almost six or seven weeks ago I became paralyzed all at once with rheumatism,” writes Mrs. Louis MeKey, 913 Seventh Street. Oakland. Cal. “It struck me in the back and extended from the hip of my right leg down to my foot. The attack was so severe that I could not move in bed and was afraid that I should be a cripple for life. “About twelve years ago 1 received a sample bottle of vour Liniment but never had occasion to use it, as f have always been well, but something told me that Sloan's Liniment would help me, so I tried it. After the second application I could get out of bed, and in three days could walk, and now feel well and entirely free from pain. “My friends were very much surprised at my rapid recovery and I was only too glad to tell them that Sloan’s Liniment was the only medicine I used.”

A DELIGHTFUL CONCERT

The much talked of, long awaited, often postponed concert by the Wilbur Starr Co. took place Wed of last week in Meharry Hall. A large audience of Greencastle citizens and DePauw students welcomed Mr. Starr back to bis native city and his alma mater. The concert was to have been given some three weeks ago, but Mr. Starr was taken sick,-and was not able to appear at that time. That his voice had lost nothing by the rest and that he is fully recovering from his illness the large audience that greeted him last night will bear witness. It is much to say of a concert in Meharry Hall that it was one of the best ever given there, and yet this can truthfully be said of the Starr concert. Greencastle has a reputation for musical appreciation. Some years since when the VanDerstuecken orchestra came here from Cincinnati, that celebrated leader insisted on giving Greencastle a special program of music better then that given at other places. Colored Jubilee singers have won applause here only as a joke. The music given by the company last night was of the kind that Greencastle citizens care for, and they voiced their feelings in repeated encores and generous applause. Each member of the company shares with Mr. Starr in the creAlit of giving such a pleasant evening. Piano, violin and voices were all excellent. As for Mr. Starr himself, it was the general Impression that he is constantly improving in the quality and timbre of his voice. Last night he more than satisfied the critics. and gave unbounded pleasure to the lovers of good music. It is Greencartle’s wish that each year we shall be visited by Mr. Starr and his company.

The township advisory hoard at SEltsville, in Hendricks County, is in trouble with the State Board of Health. The advisory board declares that Stilesville has a school building. Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the State Board of Health, declares that, legally, Stilesville has no school building. Dr. Hurty declares, also, that unless the advisory board appropriates money for a school building. Stilesville, most likely, will have no school next year. Dr. Hurty has received a letter from E. R. Roberts, township trustee, in which the latter declares that the township advisory board has refused to appropriate money for a school building, “Unless the advisory board reconsiders this action ” said Dr. Hurty, “and votes to treat the school children in a civilized way there will be no school there next winter, for, according to law, a school house which has been condemned by the State Board of Health Is in the same condition as though It had been burned down. It his no legal existence.” The Stiles- ' file school building was condemned sen o time ago and notice of condemnation has been sent to the school authorities.

ANCIENT STATE CAPITOL

Indiana's old state Capital Near New Albany to Be Remodeled and Preserved.

The board of county commissioners at Corydon, 12 miles west of New Albany, has decided to remodel the ancient Indiana state capitol in that town, which for more than threequarters of a century had been occupied by the Harrison county couthouse. A six-foot hallwal is to be made through the second fioor north and south, with two rooms on each side.

With the exception of some slight changes that were made 35 years ago, this is the first change that has been made in the building since It was completed in 1815. From the time of its completion until 1825. when Indianapolis became the ntate capital, the legislature held its sessions in this building.
