A "Bear Guard" to Prosecute for Unlawful Wearing of the Insignia. So many persons are wearing Grand Army buttons who have no right to do so that .prominent men in the several posts are discussing: the propriety of having a general committee, to be called "a rear guard," whose duty It shall be to proceed to prosecute those who wear the Insignia of the order who have no right to do so. The law of Indiana reads as follows: Sec. L Be It enacted by the- General Assembly of the State of Indiana that any trson who shall willfully wear the badge or buttonaire of the Grand Army of the KeiuMic, or shall use or wear the same, or print or cause to le printed or used any card containing a printed cut or similitude Of such badge, to obtain old, assistance or notoriety thereby, within the State, unless be be entitled to use or wear the same under the rules nnd regulations of the, Grand Army of the Republic, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be fined In sum not exceeding $20. "Most of these offenders," said a leading Grand Army man yesterday, "are men amr-ly able to ray their dues but have :refuseil to do so and thereby compelled the dropping- of their names. Any man who Is unable to pay ht dues can have them remittor upon application. Indeed, in some parts the council of administration do this without the straits of the comrade who is unable to pay being known to the membership. I notice a number of men who are candidates wearing Grand Army buttons who have no richt to do s. I "favor the publication of a list of such." ANOTHER SEES DEFEAT. President Kinqr, of Hendricks Club, Predicts Republican Success. President Myron King; of the Hendricks Club, yesterday relieved his mind of a burden which he has boon carrying for some time. He says the Democratic party Is very strong when out of power, but is ruined by success. He th!nks the Republicans, if thy had the opportunities that Democratic Congressmen have let slip by, would have had the pins set up to i?rpetuate thems Ives In power for twenty years or more. I If telieves th Marion county Democrats will I e defeated at the polls this fall, and is willing to believe the Populists will develop suthcient strength to throw the presidential election into the House of Representatives in 1S. SAHM TAKES THE OATH. On Arrival of His Commission He Will Take His New Job. The bond of Albert Sahm ns postmaster was slcn-xl in the office of Van Vorhis & Spencer yesterday, and the bond has been forwarded to Washington. The oath of O.Tice was administered to both Mr. Sahra and his assistant. Oliver Reveal, by W. W. Fiercer. Mr. Sahm says he will call upon 1'ostmaster Thompson as soon as the commission is received from Washington and a time for the surrender of the oilice agreed upon. Jt will probably be during the middle Of March, and will take place at night in order that the new administration may beKin its work with tho hiy. All th? money now on hand will be forwarded to Washington before the transfer Is made. Child Complains Against Her Father. Emma, Jackson, aged fourteen years, colored, and residing at No. 123 Rates alley, complained to Police Matron Uuchanan yesterday that her father had on many occasions beaten her severely with a club. It was his custom, so she claims I, on arriving home at night from work, to at enco begin to scold her. finishing it by a icv-Tc whipping. On one occasion, so she claimed, he tied her to a bed and whipped her until sh was nearly unconscious. She was assured that1 the police would look into the utTalr.

TIRED OF INDECISION

Hoard of Health Insists tho Coun ty Must Huild a Pest house. City May Hof use to Care for the County's Sick Alabama-Street Remonstrance Sullielent. This week the County Commlr.lonf-r will once more U called upon to Klvc th? city nn answer :.h to tluir intentions in regard to the erection if a pi st house. The Htvilth Hoard will lmdst upon a positive answer from the county In order that tho city may uct accordingly. Dr. Hammond said yesterday afternoon: "If the press reports are trm the smnlljox is corning closer to our city every day, and it Is but a questlm of time till wo have it here. The necessity for the erection of the pesthouso Is prertdng, and should an epi lcmlc come upon us the coun ty would undoubtedly llnd itself as much In need of a pesthouse as would the city. If tho commissioners continue in their refusal to Ixrip their proportion of the ex pense of the building, I shall be In favor of a policy of retaliation all around, and I believe It would prove extensive to the county. Wo are now nnd have been at tending to their patients at the City Hos pital without one cent of cost to tho county. Thero has never been uny objection to this, but If they become parsimonious to tho extent of refusing to b-nr their Just projortlon of the expense rf the pesthouse l shall be In favor of refusing to care tor county tatlents at tho hospital as well as at the pesthouse and the establishment of a strict quarantine in case of epidemic. The county would find it rather extensive to care lor its patients if they were snui out of the hospital. Whenever a prisoner at the workhouse becomes ill the hospital is calletl upon and receives him, and the city has, in this "way, borne the expense of caring for a great many of the county's sick." PUB FOIl SPECIAL COl'XSEL. An Orillnnnce Flxintr Leal Compcnnation In Street-Car Litigation. A new ordinance authorizing the employ ment of special counsel to assist the city attorney in the street-car litigation has b:en prepared and will be submitted to the Council at Its' next meeting. The objection able features of the ordinance Introduced at the special session have b?on removed. The new ordinance provides that the special counsel shall receive not more than $3,000 for services unless the litigation is carried to the Supreme Court of the United States, In which case counsel shall receive an additional $2,000. The city attorney will not say who he will employ in case the authority to employ is granted. The committee empioyea by the council or 1S01 to codify the city ordinances has completed Its work, and will be ready to report to the Council In a few days. There was no specification as to the compensation to be paid the commission, which consists of John W. Kern, J. V. McCullough and u . L. Tavlor. and the cltv does not know th? amount It will bo called u;on to pay for the I work. During a portion f the time a ste nographer was employed by the commission. The members of th3 commission say their bill for service will not be exorbitant, though they decfrne to say what they will ask for the work. The city controller says that he remembers the appointment of tne commission, but can find no authority for printing the report, nor did he know what amount would be required to meet the bills. WILL GO TO THi: COl .CIL. Alabama-Street Asphalt Resolution Delayed 1- Ilemonst ranees. City Engineer Drown has completed his investigations of the rcmonstra-nc-e-s filed against the Improvement of Alabama street with asphalt and will send his report to tho Beard of Public Works this morning. The improvement Is under two resolutions, one for that section of the street from Maryland street to Massachusetts avenue. and the other from Massachusetts avenue to St. Clair street. On the first section the engineer finds that there are fourteen resident property owners, eieven of whom have signed the remonstrance; on the latter section there are thirty-four resident property owners, and twenty-eight have signed the remonstrance. As the remonstrants number two-thirds of the resident property owners the board cannot order the improvement without submitting the question to the Council, which will be don at its next meeting. The remonstrants, in the meantime, have been actively at work endeavoring to secure a majority in their favor in the Council when the question b presented. On Thursday the city engineer, with th engineering corps, will begin the survey for the Itell-street sewer. The Hoard of Public Works is anxious to construct thir sewer during the present year If it can find a way to do so. AYnttiiiK for Fair "Weather. President Mason, of the Citizens Streetrailroad Company, says the company has no called a halt In the plan of Improvement mapped out. and that by June 1 there will not be a mule car In the city. He says the company will not operate more electric linen until Its new povrr house Is completed, but will have several lines ready to put In operation by that time. The Hrightwood line is In condition to be finished within i few days, but wiil not be finished until atout th tirre tho new power house is completed. The Mount Jackson line will be extended and the IlauhvilM line will be built if the County Commissioners will grant the company the right to cross the Michigan-street bridge. Ttvo w Viaducts Wnnlril. The next cabinet meeting will consider a proposition to compel the railroads to build at least one and probably two new viaducts. As soon as the Mayor returns from the East he will prepare his Ideas to lay them befi re tho cabinet. The places where viaducts will required are at Kentucky avenue and Hast Washington street. The first named is the more dangerous crossing and 1? but one is urged it will probably be at this point. I'.efore his oet,:irfnre Mayor Penny said h thought th provPii'ns of the charter amply broad to pr?:dt th city to reouire the r:iilr-;ol comp-tti to erect the viaducts at dangerous crossings. Hoar:! Still lteorn nizln. The Hoard of Public Safety held another meeting yesterday morning at which it considered the physical statistics of the police force.

Work of Ihn Hoys' Home nnd Employment Association. The first annual meeting of the Hoys Homo and. Kmployment Association was held yesterday afternoon in the clubrooms, No. W Hast Court street. M. V. McGllllard, president of the association, presided. Miss Mary Dixon, superintendent, then followed with a reiori of the work carried on during the four months of her service with the club. Heforo tho organization of the club It was her plan to go among the boys on the streets and to inform them of the prospects for forming a club. Miss Plxon said that she also visited the boys at their homes. She made it a point to see the leaders of the fangs which the boys generally formed, and In this way a greater lnlluence was gained rather than In seeing. the Individual. The first case of help rendered was that of a small boy who was taken care of for six weeks. He had tramped here from Chicago, and was, after a time, sent to relatives In Detroit. The boys are taught the necessity of cleanliness. At first the majority appeared at the home with unwashed faces. Put the first appearance with unclean faces Is the only one. After this they are required to appear with clean faces and otherwise neat In appearance. They are finally taught to menfl their clothes. Every Monday and Wednesday night school is held. The average attendance is about twenty-five. Miss Carrie Merrill and Mlsa Carroll, of the public schools, assist at each session in teaching the boys. Only the primary subjects are studied, such as reading, spelling, writing, arithmetic and geography. The scholars range in agg from seven to sixteen years. There are but a few who cannot read nor write on first entering the school. On Friday night there is held a boys' brigade, a military drill, which is attended by an average of thirty boys. This 13 followed by a flag drill. The boys are required to sign a pledge before joining the brigade. The drill Is given under the Instructions of James Kirk. Sunday school is held every Sunday afternoon at 2:3a o'clock. There have been but four sessions held, and that of last Sunday was the largest, those present numbering thirty-two. The Increase has been gradual. There are ninety-nine boys enrolled on the club Jlst. Each boy contributes 10 cents a week "for the maintenance of the club. During the mornings of three days in the week Miss Plxon visits the homes of the members. In return seventeen of the mothers have called at the clubrooms to see the manner In which their children are entertained. When any of the members get Into irouoie .miss uixon, wun me aia or tjapt. Ell 1 titter and Judge Stubbs, generally succeed in getting the prisoners free if the case is not a serious one. In all there have been thirty boys given clothes and twelve who have been persuaded to return to the public schools. The club has been in receipt of a number of valuable and useful gifts, Including a contribution of iifty-one b.xks from the Y. P. S. C. E. of the Meridianstreet M. E. Church. Secretary S. C Oilman read his report. He reviewed the growth of the organization. The finances of the club are entirely satisfactory, though the interested parties state that the maintenance of the club rests for a great part upon the contributions of the citizens. It is thought that no great difficulty will be encountered in getting the citizens to respond liberally. Five directors were elected for a tenn of three years to fill the places of the five directors whose terms of one year expired. The directors elected are as follows: II. H. Hubbard, Mrs. Caleb S. Denny, Mrs. F. E. Hclwig; Mrs. A. M. Noe and Mrs. George Merritt. The board of directors of the club number fifteen. The loard will meet at the clubrooms next Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock to elect the club ofiicres for the ensuing year. DENOMINATIONAL EDUCATION. Father Gavisk Iicads a Notable Paper Before the Century Club. Father Francis II. Gavisk, the rector of St. John's Church, rea'd a notable paper before the Century Club, at its regular meeting last night, on "Denominational Education." The paper was a clear, calm and dispassionate discussion of the position of the Koman Catholic Church upon the question of public and parochial schools, and, as Father Gavisk is wddely known as one of lie most intelligent Koman eccleslasts of the State, his utterances on this subject are likely to be recognized as ex cathedra. The paper was rather too long for publication in a daily b?sue of the Journal, and rather than give an lnsutlicient abstract the paper will be reserved for publication complete in next Sunday's issue. Briefly stated, the position of the great body of Koman Catholics, Evangelical Lutherans and other friends of denominational education, a3 understood by Father Gavisk, Is this: they are taxed for the support of the public schools, yet they cannot conscientious! have their children taught in them because there is no religious instruction therein, or, if there Is any, It is likely to be contrary to their own belief: because of certain historical allusions in many of the text books on history that they believe prejudicial to their faith, and because, in many in stances, they believe the general tona of certain public schools to be agnostic, if not contrary to the Christian religion. They favor such a modification of the public school system as would admit of the payment to denominational schools of a certain pro portion of the public school ianus. this pro portion to be based partially upon per capita attendance and partially upon results attained in examinations, such schools to be under the supervision of public school efiieials representing the State or munici pality. in the discussion that followed the paper the clearest and most concise opposing view was expressed by Charles W. Mooivs. He said he believed the instruction in any sort of religion in the public school to be en tirely contrary to the American idea, which contemplates the entire and absolute di vorcement of church and state in all public affairs. He said there was a percentage of American taxpayers who belong to no church and owed allegiance to nj religious creed. The state had no right whatever to take their property In taxation and use it for the purpose of religious instruction. The purpose of the public school was to educate the chiMren of the Nation in onler to develop Intelligent citizenship, leaving the formation of character to the home and the Christian influences of the community. In the course of the discussion Judge Winters expressed the somewhat startling view that at some future time, generations hence, the American public school system would be in the hands of the Koman Catholic Cl.'tr-h. not through the result of any contest, but because the Koman Catholic school would eventually prove itself the best school ami the people would be willing to have the church assume control, but it is needless to say that this view was not agreed to by any of those present, and it Is not at all certain that Judge Winters was earnest in expressing it.

THEY MUST HAVE AID

Thousands Arc Apt to Snflor if the Food Market Is Closed. Finance Committee of the Kelief Iluroau Meets and Submits a Statement ot Work Done. Tho financial committee of the Commercial Club relief committee held a meeting last night. John. II. llolllday presided. II. H. Hanna, on behalf of the relief com ndteee, presented the following statement: "Of the funds subscribed for the work of the Commercial Club relief committee, we have eximded up to thl time Jll.M7.T3. We have each week paid all bills. There Is yet due on subscriptions ubout $l,vn), some of which Is not yet due, and probably $l,0O of the amount cannot be collected, la the disbursement of these funds we have paid to the Charity Organization Society and the Flower Mission' such sums ns they have required for their work, which Is conducted in harmony with the plans of our committee. ".Since Dee, ;',tj we have FuppUel food to between 4,500 and 5.0OO iersons each weak. Iast week 4.TSI persons received rations. Fuel and shoes have also been furnished as needed. Work is performed In iayment of food and other articles lurnlshed. This lalor is given to the city without charge. Last week the credit for labor amounted to $1,SG3, at the rate of U per day. Drletly, this is the record up to the present time. "There ure now 4,!k persons who are deiendent upon our market for their food and fuel. The industrial situation seems no better than it was three months ago, and If we close the food market these persons will bo thrown on the community for supiort in whatever way they can get It. Many, probably the most worthy, will suffer possibly starve. Bhall we now abandon to chance 4,rK.o helpless people already on the verge of starvation? This is the question now to be unswered: this is the situation that confronts us. How long It may be necessary to continue this help we cannot tell. Possibly two months, or even longer. Much will depend on the weather. We are dropping from our rolls all who are believed to be able to take care of themselve without our aid; this we shall continue to do while our work goes on. "So far as we can learn our plan, of relief is tha least expensive, while, at the same time, is the most adequate and, we believe, the most beneficent in operation In any of the American cities. It has been our earnest aim to make it this, and the efforts which have been put forth have brought high commendation outside of Indianapolis. "In calling the attention of the finance committee to the present status of our work -and the need of raising more money, we believe that it may bo due to the public, as well as ourselves, that It should understand that our work has been conducted in perfect harmony with all auxiliary and co-operative bodies, that the control of the work and the responsibility tor It by our committee remains unchanged, and that we hope, with the support of the liberal and fair-minded people of the city, to perform our task in, a way fully deserving approval." After the reading of the statement a number of remarks were heard! In behalf of continuing tha work. It was then proposed to continue the work. Much, discussion followed over the manner of soliciting subscriptions. Chapln C. Foster then suggested that the committees who had previously made the canvass be ordered to canvass new territory and that a subcommittee be appointed to recanvass the territory from which subscriptions were at first received. A motion to this effect was carried. FRIENDS OP M AS AND BEAST. Indiana Humane Society Hears Reports of the Year's Work. Friendless and forlorn horses -would be rejoiced If they could know that the activity in their behalf of that warm-hearted orgardzatlon, the Indiana Humane Society, has in no wise diminished. This organization held Its annual meeting- last evening in one of the parlors of the Denlson Hotel. Treasurer hover's report showed last year's receipts to have been $CS5.S2, cjid the disbursements &S3.21. It. A. Orlopp, humane Inspector, submitted his annual report, which contained some Interesting information, as follows: Total cases observed by officer, 6C8; cases reported at office, 33; total attended to by him, 71. Cases prosecuted, 21; convictions, 18; acquittals, 3. The Inspector won bo per cent. of his prosecution. Old and diseased horses bought and killed, YM; old and diseased cows bought and killed, 17; other animals, S; total, 519. The above cases are classified as follows: Hor&es and Mules Lame or sick ordered off the streets, i:iK; horses and mules with sore backs and shoulders, 114; horses ana mules relieved from overloading, 41; horses and other animals relieved from improper shelter, 73; horses and mules ordered shod, 33; animals relieved from being underfed, 15; drivers of animals warned for unnecessary whippings, 22; calves relieved from crowding in wagons and cruelty, 14; calves ordered unloaded from cars, 2G; coops of chickens relieved from crowding and other acts of cruelty, 47; children relieved from mistreatment, 27: children ordered sent to iich 'ii, 11; children sent to the orphans hou e. 12; children sent to school for feebleminded, l; total, 701; average a month, 5S; average a day. 2UThp inspector's report calls attention to the fact that the horses purchased to kill were tha property of very poor people, who often had large families dependent upon them and the services of these horses for support, and who could ill afford to lose the animals, even though the latter were in bad condition. It would have been almost impossible to secure convictions In these cases on the charge of cruelty, and, besides, might have b:en regarded as persecution, so the inspector purchased the horses, had them killed and sold to fertilizing factories, the cost to the society thus being reduced to a minimum, ihe abus of overhead checking of horses and tha tight checkrein are the subjects of a few line3 from the inspector?1 who says that through his close watch there now exists very little cause for complaint on this score, and in the few cases now coming under his notice the drivers have readily accede to hjs request that the checkreins should be lowered and the animal in that wav relieved. Mr. Orlopp says that all persons whom he has had occasion to admonish have cheerfully complied with his requests and the necessity of arrests is becoming more and more infrequent. The eases of children relieved are, he says, those where the matter could be so quickly arranged as to avoid the necessity of calling uioa the Board of Children's Guardians. A few words to parents was all that was r needed in tha school cases, ami the little ones sent to the home were lor the most part children of widows in destitute circumstances, and not cases of cruelty, improper raising or abandonment. The total number of cases observed th!3 present month was y); reported at office. 3: total. M. Twenty-six horses were bought for $43.00, and twenty were sold for Ij). There were two prosecutions, both convictions. Forty-six horses and four cows were killed. Mr. Orlopp told the society that, if properly used, the overhead checkrein was a good thing, and Dr. Armstrong, the society's veterinarian, corroborated him. The only trouble was in its abuse. There was some discussion of the year's work and of the plans for the present j year, the general feeling being one of sat isfaction over what is being accompusnea. A committee of live wan appointed to arrange for a publlo meeting In th? interest of the cause which the Humane Society champions. The old officers were re-elected by acclamation. They are as follows: President. David W. Coffin; vice president, Mrs. Kllza C. Hendricks; secretary, William H. Hob.son; treasurer, G. II. S hover; humane inspector. It. A. Orlopp; general agent, Mrs. Anna Prettyman; assistant humane inspector at the stockyards, John It. Fohl. Miss Freel Lost Her AViirdrobe.

Later it was learned that the Walsh woman waa in the custoily of helbyvLlle authorities. She will be brought here to stand trial. Among; the New Candidates. The friends of J. 13.

A LETTER TO VOOUIIEES.

Ewald Over Replies to a Circular He Keceiveil. Senator D. W. Voorhees has lately been flooding the manufacturing districts of the State with circulars to manufacturers with the ostensible purpose of making Inquiries relative to the effect a change la the tariff laws would have on tho factories. The insincerity of the Sycamore and his contempt for the manufacturing Interests of his own State are so well known that most of these circulars are finding their way to the waste baskets. Hwald Over received three of the circulars yesterday morning, Issued by tho finance committee of the Senate, and bearing a stamp autograph of Voorhees. He answered Voorhees as follows: "As I nm too busy (and it is all I have to do) thinking of the good times we enjoyed under a protective tariff, of the good wages we were enabled to pay our workmen, of the quick sales of our products and of the remunerative prices we received for them, I cannot iossibly answer any and all of your categorical questions. Sutlice it to Fay that my works are standing Idle and business is utterly stagnant. If the anticipation of a tariff for revenue only has produced such a state of affairs as now exist, it becomes patriotic legislators to hesitate and deliberate before they plunge the country Into utter ruin." FOUND IN A FIELD. An Aged Man Wanders Away and Is Discovered Starving". Mr. Wilson, an aged resident of Agnes street, who was reported missing from his home several weeks ago, was found yesterday In a field near the edge of the county In a starving and pitiable condition.
