Evening Session.

The evening session was taken up by 8. o.
Pickens with "An educated laity," "Cnristian
conceptions IN education" by Rev. DR.. Lemual
Moss, and "Mere endowment" by Rev. N. Carr.
Dr. Moss's address was of especial interest.
He said that Christianity affirmed the value of
man. Jesus Christ revealed man 60 himself.
He was the son Of man, as well as the son of
God. Man reaches the fullness of his stature in
manhood in Christ Jesus. 1t may take genera

To the Editor of the indianapolis journal:
Whenever known evil exists. it should be
legally suppressed, if possible. Public opin-
ion acknowledges intemperance to be the
giant evil. There is no reasonable doubt but
what there are temperance men enough in
the Republican and Democratic parties, if
united, to over-vote the free-w whisky men.
We believe if such men would heartily
unite, they would be invincible. Why can,
and why should, they not unite? All the
best interests of society require it. The vital
questions dividing Republicans and Demo
Gratis are settled. The only dividing line is
the name Republican and Democrat, with
the prejudlces these names inspire. Our ma
ton is now the happicst, the freest, and with
the blot of intemperance removed, the best
in history. Why should not good Republic
cans and good Democrats join hands and bal
lots, and jointly wipe out the giant evil of
the age. The dark stain of slavery is gone.
The whisky ring at Washington, the confed-
Grated saloon-keepers and brewers, are united
together in political league, and hang like
terrible nightmare over both parties. and
they tremble with fear. The time was when
.
But the Republicans, aided by patriotic
Democrats, through four years of blood and
flame, destroyed slavery. The same union OF
the best men of all parties at the ballot-box
would bring like result for temperance.
AS slavery could not have been destroyed
without Democratic aid, so now they must
come to the aid of temperance. They did not
fail in the civil war, which freed the slaves,
and they will not fail now in the contest to
free their homes and every home in the land
from the great destroyer. Neither party has
quite the moral courage to stand fair and
square, and strike incompetence between the
eyes. The Democratic party is welded to in
temperance rs it was to slavery, and would
not think of it. The Republicans don't want
to loose their drinking men and are afraid of
some Germans. While mere politicians
trembe they should not forget that mighty
moral element which IS gradually drifting
away from the Republicans and as certain as
fate, will form temperance party, aud

The morning was devoted to home missions.
Judge d. v. Burns made a report on the subject.
He showed that 81 ,765 had been contributed by

WORK of the Home Mission Society was the most
important work before the Baptist Convention.
He said the work in the West, among the freed
men of the South, among the Chinese, Mormons.
Mexican and foreign population was more inn
portane than ever before.
Rev. ]. 81. Reider, pastor Of the Bluffton Bap-
fist Church, addressed the convention on "Frults
of home mission and work." and Rev. James
Cooper, of Detroit, Mich, on "The apostolic ex-
ample for national eYangelizatOn."
Rev. A. p. Eckmann, missionary among the

Swedes in Indiana. His appeal was referred 10

ELLEN TERRY.
Her Opinion of American Audiences and
MIR. Irvings Acting.

Mr.. Irving's Acting
Interview in New York Herald.
ooh, dear, don't know where shall find
words to express the glad satisfaction l feel, 4"
she said. Il am so excited that [ hardly
know where | am. Last night | was anxious
as watched Mr.. Irving, and to-day was so
worked up that | was in a tremble Do you
know that when got before the audience for
a moment l thought | would faint, but l
chung on to my part with such tenacity that
| mastered the momentary weakness. Then
came that wild burst of sounding welcome
and in an instant knew | was among friends.
l thank them a thousand times from my
heart for their goodness"
What do you honestly think of your
audi ence from purely critical standpoint
were they independent and just?
Indeed they were. | never played to
more intelligent, sympathetic and quick
hearted aSsemblage. Just look at the scene
between Lord Moray and the King. Did
you hear that splendid, knightly burst of
feeling which went up from the people when
the King was about 10 knel to his subject?
1t was a wonderful response. That point
was never taken by London audience and
yet, do you know, my heart always gives
big throb when 1 see Mr.. Irving make that
involuntary effort to kneel."
That is fact" said Mr. Irving. 81 never
remember hearing an audience take that
point before"
1t showed wonderful depth of sentiment
in the people. Then again when MIR. Irving
offers to surrender his crown and save his
land and secure peace, it is a pitiful touch,
and the audience took it. | never saw it
taken before. There were lots of such Incl
dents, which told me that | was in the pres
ence of cultivated minds, and when l began
to warm up and do better in the last scenes
| felt so sorry that l had not done better in
the first. But, all! in my art you cannotr rub
out words once spoken. You cannot appre-
ciate how keenly l realized this tonight"
What scene do you like best?'
"Oh! the last scene 1t is perfectly heart
rending; don't you think so? The people
were crying all over the house. | was wait
ing for the signs of emotion, and when |
heard man sniff in the first row l knew it
was all over and we had conquered Did
you notice how splendidly Mr.. irving acted
in the scene where he reproaches Lord
Moray for his treachery? Christ and Judas
is it not suggestive and sublime? Then in
the scene where Cromwell made his demands
on the King, how much there is of man to
man to man in the acting, and how erandly
Mr.. Irving stamps his foot as he refuses to
yield"
Here the graceful girish form of Miss
Terry was suddenly thrown back as she arose
and stamped her tiny foot like the royal hero
she described.

she exclaimed. Il was born to laugh. My
audiences must see me play Beatrice in

Thomas Harrison, president of the State be-
nevolent boards, has recently addressed a COM
munieation to the Attorney general asking for
official opinion whether or not the law limit
ing the expenditure of any of the institutions
for one month to an amount not exceeding one
twelfth of the annual appropriation, must be
literally complied with. Judge Hord holds that
the law is mandatory, and not merely directory,
IN its provisions, and that the expenditure must
be so limited By this ruling the trustees can
not buy large quantities of supplies at wholesale
at one time, although such purchases would be
in the interests of economy.

A good way to destroy witch grass and

to the United States and Canada of the royal
commission appointed by the British govern

details of the subject which he had been in
vestigating in this country for the past six
months and in other parts of the world for
two years. He said:
There was doubt in the minds of the

The rational grounds of our hope for liberal

wealth of our people is rapidly increasing-much
more rapidly than the membership of our
churches. According to an estimate made on a
basis that can easily be explained, our wealth
aggregates between seventy and one hundred
millions. If it were but seventy millions, 40
OF per cent of the amount would give
about 100000 endowment, and our apprecia-
