consent 10 any consideration of Mr..

Literary Missionary Work.

TO the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
In last Sundays issue of your paper Mrs.
Kits. of Muncie, gave a report of the meet
ing of the Union of Literary Clubs held at
Warsaw, closing with the following:
1.-TWO invitations We're received for the
next years convention, Bloomington and
Muncie both extending courtesieS Muncie
was the favOrite candidate, both because of
its favorable situation and because the con-
vention was prompt to recognize the zeal
and energy displayed by the Magic city
delegates. A popular vote, without the
shadow of a doubt, would have accepted
Muncie's invitation, but the members of the
committee time and place who are small
autocrats in their way, thought a mission
airy work could he done in the southern part
of the State, where even the presence OF a
large university has not served TO awaken
the apathy of citizens in matters literary.
So the convenience and pleasure or a large
majority of clubs in the federation We're
cheerfuly sacrificed for sweet philanthro-
pyS sake.
If Bloomington, with its advantages. has
not yet awakened to matters literary
how account for the number of clubs rep
resented in the union and the still larger
number forming the federation which ex-
tended the invitation to the union after
having received intimation from various
sources that such invitation was desired?
Bloomington has no lax to grind" and the
zeal and energy displayed by the Magic
trusive electioneering, was not INDUCED IN.
A popular vote on place of meeting has
never been the custom, and to an unpre1u-
diced person there was no occasion for such
innovation. 1 feel assured the committee
would not be so discourteous as to voice
such a reason for their selection as the en-
lightenment of the people of this part of
the State so Mrs. Kits must pose as a
mndreader or be herself responsible for the
discourtesy Missionary work may be
needed in Bloomington, but the public may
question the statement coming from rival
unable to gracefully accept defeat

TRIED TO BUY THE BRYAN HOUSE
Berry might have made Salem his future
home had he been able to buy the house in
which William Jennings Bryan was born.
He made Senator Hull an extravagant offer
for the place, but the senator refused TO let
II go. He then came to the conclusion that
ne would fancy life on big farm, and with
some admirers here he and his wife were
driven TO the estate of II. Lee Borden.
Berry went all through the great house.
netting it's furnishings and declaring that
they suited him to a dot. Mrs. Berry was
delighted, but insisted that she wanted to
go East and live on the boulevards of the
metropolis. She is, however, delighted with
the treatment she has received here and
may be induced TO settle in Salem perma-
nently. Berry says no. He has spent all
the money he can in Salem and he is anx-
ious to get to new fields. His wife is about
twenty years old. He wants her to see life
as 1t Is lived in New York.
This man and his new wife have spent at
least 81 in Salem and Mount Vernon dur
ing the last three weeks. The whole south
end of the State is talking about him, and
MS mail averages about one hundred letters
day. Centrdlia had him for d day. The
day was the biggest since the last county
fair. He is flooded with invitations to visit
towns. 1t is the thing he likes, and a man
with money in q bottomless pocket is a
welcome guest most any place One of his
guests has written song about him which
tells the way Salem likes Berry.
Let us all be very merry.
For our friend is James +. Berry.
Let us swallow all the beer within our
reach:
He's q horticultural paradox,
For you can beu your summer socks,
Although his name is Berry he is peach.
Berry dresses in loud checks. His wife
dresses in laces-laces which are draped
about her shoulders and which reach to d
silver belt around her waist. They both
wear flowers rampant; he, two bouquets in
cOrsage. Berry is rather tall. has a good
eye; his hair is partly gray; his lip curs
up with the sheer of a man who doesn
care cent for expenses. Mrs. Berry Will
have to make no apologies for her looks
when she gets to New York. She has the
face and features-all she needs is fashion
plate and a good dressmaker. Berry says
he is going to get both of these.
1t may be that Berry's fortune is not as
big as he has promised himself. 1t is GER
t2inly big enough to raise high Jinks IN
Salem and the towns hereabOuts, and he is
sparing no effort to spend it. 1t is now
his plan to give the whole village a ban
quet at the Park House which shall tax
Marion county and st. Louis for supplies.

Something to die for. maybe,
Something 70 give even sorrow grace

CLUBBED ny A NEGRO.
Two Young Men Badly Beaten Mt
SOuthover junction.

Two young men, s. J. Henderson, and
john Brannen. were badly beaten with q
club by negro named Williams at South
over Junction yesterday afternoon.
The two men live at No. GO West Broad
street, but they spent last night at police
headquarters as dodgers. They were
drunk, it is said, out al Southover Junction
and were guilty of improper conduct to-
wards Williams wife and daughter.
williams interfered, but one of them
drew a razor and ran the negro into his
house. He returned Immediately and met
the men with a club.
An unmerciful pounding was admins
tered them. Brannen got the worst of 1t,
as he had two severe cuts on the head.
Henderson's principal wound was on the
forehead, and was a cut two inches long.
After the men had been beaten they
MADE their way to the Ogeechee road, out
there they tagged out and sank down by
the roadside. A crowd gathered. it was
thought the men were dead, and po-
lice headquarters were telephoned. 1t was
the work of the whisky and the loss of
blood, however that had reduced them to
the state in which they We're found. They
were put into the ambulance and carried
to the barracks.
Williams has been summoned to APP
pear be fore the recorder to-day.
