REV. j. Il. GILBERTS DEPARTURE.
His Headquarters Transferred to the
National Capital.

Rev. j. z Gilbert, d. D., expects to re-
move next week with his family TO Wash
ington, ID. c. The son, Thompson Dale,
will matriculate next month in Columbian
University. This change of residence Is
made because of the enlargement of DIR.
Gilberts work and the transfer Of his head
quarters to the national capital. Six years
ago, on retiring from the pastorate of Me-
ridian-street Church, DIR. Gilbert devoted
himself to the cause of religious education.
AT first he set in motion some plans for
the training of Sunday-school teachers. To
these he added a system for the private
devotional reading Of the Scriptures, an
outline text book for use by college stu
dents, and a course of reading designed to
aid parents in the instruction Of their chill
dren at home. The books for these four
courses, nineteen in all, involved a great
amount OF literary labor, and some of them
have passed through several editions. This
movement was at first under local auspices,
several city pastors and laymen giving
their names and advice to the opening
plans. But gradually, as the work adj
vanced, a different organization was de-
manded. Last year all the features were
committed to a new society called the
American Society of Religious Education,
with headquarters at Washington. OF this
society Gen. John Eaton, former Commits
sioner of Education for the United States,
was made president, and DR.. Gilbert secre-
tary, with a governing council or thirty
prominent educators of different denOmi-
nations.
This society has opened an office in
Washington, corner Twelfth and G. streets,
where will be gathered all devices, text
books, etc, used in religious education, TO
be to this cause what the Bureau of Ed
u~cation, established by the government, is
to the cause of secular learning. These
rooms are already fitted up. DR.. Gilbert
will not only have supervision Of these
rooms, but he will also direct the general
n ff1fre of the Cnafafu For TINT upnn 10
engaged to deliver a series of educational
lectures in New England during the coming
autumn. and another course in the South
during the winter. During the six years

are supplemented by songs and dances by
Gladys Van, frankie Hall, Stella Deane

and The Afternoon Visit by Delmore and
Wilson are leading specialties; The act
of the last named two is rather an I'M

pretty. Misses Deane and Bruce appear

GORBY'S GOLD MINE.
1t Is i'm South Carolina and Is Supposed
to Be a Great Find.

State Geologist Gorby. Charles r. Eel
bleman and Hyram Cohen have returned
from South Carolina, where the geologist
has been inspecting a gold mine recently
purchased by him and j. +. Barker, OF
Danville, Ind. The land. which is supposed
TO be full of yellow wealth. embraces 1880
acres and is located near Walhalla, Oconee
county. South Carolina. Mr.. Gorby a year
ago was sent some ore from Oconee county
TO assay and learned that the land from
which the metal was taken was for sale.
He at once formed a company and bought
it. The company is to confne its atten.
ton 10 quartz mining and a quartz mill
will be erected Immediately. Mr.. Gorby
says that the quartz rock averages better
returns than the gold mines of the West,
but when the water level is reached the
mineral waters form chlorides and sui
phurets which necessitates roasting the
ore. This is an expensive process. but In
the end a payingN one. Oconee county, the
geologist says, is famous for its noun
taineers, "moonshiners'' and big water
melons.

THE EXODUS BY STEERAGE.
Fifteen People a Week Have Been Leav-
ing indianapolis for Europe.

The rate of SO for steerage passage to
Europe has been causing a decrease on
an average of fifteen people in the city's
population each week for a month past.
low rate has been in force but thirty
days, and Frenzel Bros. and the A. Metz
ger agency, VINO handle the tickets for this
city, stated yesterday that the number of
emigrants was largely increased thereby.
They said that before this there were hard
ly five people a month who left for their
native homes in Europe. Otto Frenzel said
yesterday: I'VE average about five peo-
pie a week. We have only Irishmen and
Englishmen. So far all buyers have been
young fellows ranging in age from eigh-
teen to thirty years. The detention laws
account for the fact that we have no pur-
chasers among the Russians, Germans,
Italians and Hungarians and the other ma
tionalities. The emigrants seem to be peo-
pie who have saved up a little cash, and,
desiring TO return to their native country
either for a visit or permanently, take adj
vantage of the rate. Those desiring to go
to Queenstown. Liverpool, Londonderry,
Belfast and Glasgow nave to ship from
Philadelphia. Those going to Southhamp-
ton go from New York. Passage for
Queenstown may also be taken from

times are picking up. 1 believe this
Tor the calls for tickets have been falling
OH within the last two weeks. Last week
we had only three buyers. They were
young Irishmen. They said they would re-
turn TO this country"
Lewis Metzger said that his agency had
buyers of all nationalities. He said that
since the low rate was in force fifteen
tickets had been sold, which were distri-
buted to the following countries: Ireland,
Germany. Hungry, Italy, Russia, Greece
and England, the demand being in the
order named. He said that no tickets for
France had been sold. Mr.. Metzger said
1T is true that many German emigrants
know that they will be seized and thrown
into the army in nine cases out of ten,
or have already made some arrangements
for it. AT any rate, all the buyers seem
glad to be able to get back to their ma
tive country. The Irish emigrants are of
the heads of which were over fifty years
of age, bought tickets for Belfast. In sell
ing the tickets L entered INTO conversation
with them. The adults told me that they
children and had never been to Ireland
since. They said they had saved Il little
money, and were going back TO the Elmer
aid isle" to spend the rest of their days
The Irish and German immigrants seem
TO be better fixed financially than the 9TH
ers. The Hungarians and Italians barely
have the money TO pay the rate. Most of
them have been middle aged men, who
said they were going TO their native coun-
try, and as soon as they earned enough
they intended TO send the money to them
here. l suggested the possibility that bet
ter times were coming, and, in fact, told
them that our business indicated that i'm
provement was at hand but the men only
laughed. as if the suggestion was ridicu-
lOuS."

TIPS TO The GAMBLERS.
West indianapolis Council Excited at
the Conduct of an Official.

The West Indianapolis Council took ini-
tiative steps at its meeting last night to
suppress the gambling institutions and TO
enforce the liquor laws. A motion was
carried to appoint two additional deputy
marshals. Eli Buchanan and Noah Warner
were appointed at salaries of SS Is a
month, ana their bonds were placed at
1900. Several Merchant policemen OF the
city asked for general police powers. and
the Council considered the matter. 1t was
decided to grant the powers to James
Hughes, A. b. Wood and o. r. Burke,
providing the city should not be responsible
for any acts Of theirs which might cause
damage to life or property. Councilman
Wheeler said that it had been reported to
him that one of the city's officers had
given tips to gambling houses and saloons
when raids were planned some lime ago.
Wheeler's statements excited the Council,
and the matter of the appointment or
Buchanan and Warner, as we'll as the
granting of powers to the Merchant police
men was reconsidered. The matter ended
mittee on public saftey, with instructions
to report at the next meeting.

The matter was referred to the committee
on streets and alleys. The bill of the In

amounting to $3.50, was allowed. The
special auditing committee reported that
it had audited the treasurer's records for
one year, beginning with March rs. 1893.

song that has already proven itself highly
popular. Perhaps the brightest woman who
has appeared on the vaudeville stage this
season is Miss Reyval, in her electric dance.
When the twenty or more incandescent
lamps with which Miss Royals costume
is adorned are turned on her brightness is
apparent to the naked eye. The olio also
includes Maddox and Abrams. descriptive
