meeting tonight is being held in the mammoth
skating rink, which accommodates many more
people than the court room, which has hereto

almost to suffocation, fully 1000 people being
present. Trance manifestations occur at nearly
every meeting, but as yet they are confined
wholly to those who might be termed cranky
on religious subjects and to those of inferior
intelligence. The more intelligent people conf

evangelist and her workers as confidently assert
their ability to capture the high as well as the

people and those from the small villages of the
county coming ii every day to hear Mrs. Wood

the country. The landlord Of the hotel must
be paid in advance or he cannot give you any

of shoes. and the hands Of the carpenter are idle
until his patron advances the money to buy
board and nails. Mutual distrust prevents the
organization of corporations. and partnerships

Church Dedication at Columbus.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
COLUMBUS, May 3L-This has been notable
day in church circles of this city, the occasion
being the dedication of the Presbyterian Church,
after twelve years of struggle by the con-
gregation to complete it. 1t is now the finest
church edifce in the city, and among the best in
the State. The dedication sermon was preached
by Rev Alex. Parker, of California, formerly
pastor of the church here, and all the pastors of
the city, and several from abroad, assisted in the
ceremonies A sufficient sum of money was
raised at the meeting to-day to lift the church
debt, and there is general feeling of congratu-
lation among the members and friends at the
final success over what appeared, at times, in
surmountable obstacles, and at the present pros
porous condition and prospect for the future of

The Calumet Furnaces Shut Down.

CHICAGO, May Blast night the fires in
the furnaces of the Calumet Iron and Steel
Company at Cummings, near South Chicago,
were allowedto 60 out, and it is understood
they are not likely to be relit for some days,
perhaps weeks. The shutdown is partly owing
to the dull times, but is the direct result of the
failure of the employees at their various meet
ings to agree to continue work at the wages
offered them. The company yesterday paid off
between six and seven hundred men, which is
about one half of the mills full force. These
men are thrown out of work, bu. no trouble is
anticipated as they are ali of frstrate character.
