HKD CLOUD, the Sioux chiet, is still in Washington wanting the restoration or the pay for some horses taken from his tribe. The dispatch mentions 7,000 as the number of horses and $19,400 as the amount of money for which they were sold. It seems hardly possible, however, that horses could have been sold for about $2,75 apiece.

CHURCH ANNIVERSARY.

The Evangelical Lutheran Church Holds Interesting Services Yesterday.

From Monday's Dally.

The evangelical Lutheran church on South Fourth street yesterday celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary. The church was beautifully decorated and the services were solemn and interesting. The morning services were held by Rev. Seul, of Indianapolis, and the evening services by Rev. H. Katt, the pastor, who delivered a historical address, showing its origin and the condition ofthe church at the present day. The origin of the chupch dates back as far as 1848, when eighteen young persons emigrated from Ost Friesl&rid in the northwest portion ot Germany and settled in Terre Haute. Among them were two school teachers. During the ocean trip these young folks held reading services on Sonday. Here in Terre Haute they were joined by a number ot' southern Germans, among them being the veteran butcher, Thomas Wahler.

Then a Lutheran And Reformed church was formed, ihe first pastor of which was A. H. Luken. In 1858 a separation took place and oil the 25th of January of that year, the present Lutheran congregation was started with eighteen members. The first trusttees of this new congregation, were Messrs. A. H. Luken, E. Frerichs and E. Meissel. Rev. Katt has been pastor of the church for the last three and a half years. It has, at present, a membership of seventy and is in a flourishing condition.
