yesterday, was continued from 10 o'clock A. M.
until 3 o'clock P. NJ. without the interest flag
ging in the least, the programme announced in
yesterdays paper being observed. Mrs Robin.

for each subject, singing, praying and relating
experience filling up all the time. Last night
the evangelist preached from the text, "Oh,
give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, and His
mercy endureth forever" The house was full,
and many persons were at the altar for prayer.
There have been about 100 conversions thus far.
Services will be held at 2:30 and 7:3O p. M. to-

The New Y. M. G. A. Building.

A strong citizens committee has been organ
lied by Mr.. W. G. Douglass during his stay in
Indianapolis. and as soon as he returns from st.
Louis, early next week, the details of the work
will be perfected and an effort will be made to
raise the $35, 600 for the erection of a Y. M. G. A.
building. Mr.. Douglass has succeeded in inter.
esting a large number of business men in the
enterprise, and has done much toward making
the outlook more hopeful There now seems to
be nothing in the way of pushing the enterprise
to q successful issue. Upon the result depends
the question whether Indianapolis shall show a
reasonable interest in creating a headquarters
for young men and a place for the qualification
of their legitimate wants.

this city, against the sureties on the bond of
Charles 81. Brown, the township trustee who
issued fraudulent warrants, q transcript of the
proceedings in the Daviess Circuit Court has
been fled in the Supreme Court. The defend

was a defect of the parties defendant. because
r. B. Pollard was not made a party to the suit,
to show his interest, and that the facts alleged
did not constitute a sufficient cause for action.
The court sustained the demurrer to the COM

Scenes to Suit Every Person.

The New Orleans gallery, to be shown here in
April, contains scenes of the brightest and most
animated sort. Out Of the prodigious number
there is something to suit every person. There
are sudden attacks on peasants by armed men;
there are gloomy paths, half lost in the skirts of
forests; there are scenes of pomp and pleasure;
there are hawking figures; there are halts of
~soldiery; there are animals in pleasant, sunny
fields; there are beautiful people in cool,
shadowy woods; there are reedy ponds and
sedgy streams; there are ladies in splendid
dresses: there are palaces with terraces and
fountains; there are landscapes, with soft, blue
mountains in the distance.

in the same cast with Owens thirty-fve years

A Complaint Agains Coal c-ontractors.

Township Trustee Kitz complained to the
County Commissioners, yesterday, that the con
tractors furnishing coal for the poor were not
fulfilling their agreement. The contract calls
for the best block coal, at So. Ia per ton, which, it
is calculated, will last a consumer four weeks.
Many complaints come to his office from the re-
c~ipients of this charity to the effect that the coal
they get is, for the greater part, slack, and a
ton of it does not last longer than three weeks.
This quality of coal can be bought any where at
25 cents a load less than other coal. The Com
missionersw will order the contractors to furnish
the best block.

more expenditures in that way. COMMISSIONS

The silver question, which is now uni
versally conceded to be the leading
question before Congress, is one of the
most harmless that has yet come before
that body for some years. To believe
the many imprisoned speeches one
would think that on it hinged the life
and death of all industry, while in fact
there seems to be little or no interest
manifested in business or financial cir
cles on the fate of the measures pro-
posed. While, should it be the tariff
under discussion, millions of capital and
labor would lie idle awaiting the result.
This clearly proves that really much OF
the talk about the Importance Of the sill
yer question is mere buncOmbe with
which to make political capital. So
long as Congress has to have something
with which TO play, it is fortunate that
in this session it is engaged in so harm
less game.

The largest cane sugar production in
the United States was before the war, it
being in 1853, 449, 1924 hogsheads. Since
the war, the largest production was in
1882, which was 24l, 225 hogsheads. The
duty before the war was less than a cent
pound, and now it is over two cents a
pound. But that is not the cause Of the
decline. 1t is because Of greater trans
portation facilities from abroad and that
the climate in the Sandwich Islands,
Cuba, Mexico and other countries is
much more suitable, and the cane can
be grown much cheaper asd better.
