didatcs Talked of.

Indianapolis, Ind, Au. 2l.-Much sat
isfaction was expressed at the national
Democratic party headquarters today
over the fact that the Cleveland cab
met will be represented at the Indian
apolis convention. Comptroller Eckels
has secured quarters at the Bates. 1t
is thought that Secretary of Agricul-
ture Morton will attend the conventions
He is the only member OF the cabinet
who is expected. A letter from Secre-
tary of the Navy Herbert plainly in
dicates that he is with the sound money
movement, but that he will not be able
to attend the convention owing to his
absence i'm Europe.
There is no longer any doubt that
Postmaster General Wilson is also in
favor of the movement. The position
which his son has taken is said to be
Il sure sign of the fathers inclination.
The son is out and out for a third ticket.
The coming of Mr.. Eckels and Secre-
tary Morton is thought to be pro-
pitiOus sign that the president Is allied
silently with the national Democracy.
The same word comes from the state
conventions throughout the country as
came from Kentucky yesterday that
the conventions are well attended and
enthusiastic to degree. Ii is but four
weeks since the first movement toward
the formation of the national Demo-
cratic party organization was started
from this city, and yet ii Is claimed at
headquarters that there is q fair Organi-
zation in the thirty-nine states, and
that all the states considered pivotal

Before leaving for Peoria today Mr..
Bynum reiterated his statement that
the convention would unquestionably
nominate ticket and would not flirt
with any of the old party organiza-
tiun.
THE CANDIDATES.
There is not likely to be much of
contest over nominations. 1nasmuch
as the eastern states are expected to
go for sound money and silver is very
strong in the extreme western states.
the candidates will probably be select
ed from the states of the middle west
and south. The men most talked Of
for the head of the ticket are General
Bragg. w. ID. Bynum and Senator Pal
mer, of Illinois. At the time OF the
national cohNehtipii lIeethS PVhp'oi
Palmer declared absolutely that he
could not accept the nomination, but he
is said to have modified his position to
some extent
For vice president there Is practically
but one man talked of, that of General
Simon b. Buckner, of Kentucky.
Buckner is the idol of the Kentucky
Democrats and is an ideal Kentuckian.
1t is believed that his name on the
ticket would carry the state for the
national Democratic ticket and would
exert a powerful influence in other
southern states. The leaders of the
national Democratic movement now
before the indianapolis ticket will have
more influence in the south than in any
other section of the country.

Lutherans Tell of Their Work Among
the Natives.

Lutheran Memorial Church was complete

sionary rally. Rev. d. Frank Garland
presided. Rev. U. s. G. Rupp, of Fort
Washington, Pa; Rev. j. w. Barnett, or
| Melrose, n. Y; DIR. Butler, pastor OF the
| church were in the pulpit with him. The
church was fifty decorated. Mr.. Rupp

After the song, u esus Shall Reign" Mr.
Garland said they bad Come together

Of good things. They would keep schedule
time. He kept his word, and the exercises
did not lag for moment of the two
hours they lasted.
Rev. A. Pohlman, medical miss.on nary elect
to Africa for the foreign board, said their
need was not young men nor young wo-
men. They needed money. He wanted es-
pecially tn talk o + A Afrca. He invited them
all to come to the international meeting
in Africa, and he wanted them to bring
their food with them. The African food
would turn them black. Since the first
mission was started few years before
he was born six missionaries had died
within two years after their arrival. The
Lutheran church had pursued a murderous
policy toward its African mission. He
described the terrible heat and deadly
malaria, and said there was need Of re-
newing the buildings and OF a physician.

ye into the world and preach the gospel
to every creature is his command
THE home missio nary work relates to
the Christianization of the whole country.
Our work is the propagation of the gospel
in our wn land"
Rev. George Coll, a miss ionary re-
turned from Africa, spoke OF the work
among the young there. He said the young
people were willing but needed a leader and
methods. A Christian Endeavor society
was organized to help and train them.
The first society was made up from various
tribes that were STEPPED in superstition.
But the society made them better Chris
tians, stronger Lutherans. The society
now numbers forty-five and q new society
has been formed.
The Hindoo, P. Ramasliapdrayaga who
was to speak on the work in India, was
not present. Rev. r. w. Hufford OF Read
ing, Pa, a member of the foreign board,
took his place. He said naturally some
impatience existed that there should be
lack OF money when men were ready to go
to the fields. 1t was easy to say that the
boards ought to do better. 1t is easy al
ways to think we can do things better
than those we see doing them. Special
efforts had been made, but the results had
been discouragiug.

Socieues in the convention. TO lend their
assistance in both home and foreign mis-
sionary work.
The first address was delivered by Rev.
H. L. Morehouse. of New York city, who
spoke on the Forces of Evil" While
he stated that he was not a ressimist and
not prone to look upon the dark side of
things. he recognized the tendencies toward
wrong which existed. He deprecated the
scant progress Christianity had made
aguinst the giant forces Of evil. Millions
more were spent annually for strong drink
than were contributed to the church;
people paid many times mere for luxuries.
for amusements and worldly things than
they donated to Christ.
EornaniSm was rouriShing and pa ganism

and most ueeded-practicalp proofs Of ones

and most needed-practlcai proofs OF one S
interest in the great work.
Rev. b. Fay Mills spoke on the Founda-
ton of Missions The Christians, he
said, were the only people whose religion
had been ON incentive towards the salva-
ton of the world. We should catch the
fervor of the Crusaders-that fervor for
recovering the grave OF a buried god-and
put that fervor to intelligent service for
the true glory OF Christ, which means the
spreading OF His spirit over all the world
There is nothing really secular in the world,
Most of Christ's work was for The body of
man. The material things of life, as well
as the spiritual, Offered fields for Chris
tan work.
We should not wash man to put tract
In his hand, but because he is a man and is
dirty. We should feed men because they
are hungry and ciothe them because they
are naked. He pointed out how, by many
of our un-Christ-like customs and laws, we
caused the heather to despise US as can't
ing hypocrites.
We must make our lives rational-must
make our precepts and practices conform
with each other. When we put more CON-
mon sense into our missionary work, fol-
lowing faithfully the true spirit of Christ,
much more would be accomplished than had
ever been achieved.
After the doxology, Mr. Service pro-
nounced the benediction.
