A JESUIT PRIESTS LECTURE.
A Large Audience Greets Father
Magevney at st. Joseph's Church.

The two Jesuit priests, Fathers Magevney
and Boarman, who are conducting the mis-
sion at St. Joseph's Church, are interesting
large audiences. Father Magevney deliv-
cred an address last evening on Hell"
His delivery is slow, deliberate, with enun-
citation clear and distinct He convinces
with appeals to reason and uses few biblical
quotations in his sermon. His text was
from Mathew XIV Al: Depart from me,
We cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared
for the devil and his angels" He said in
part:
MY remarks this evening shall be de-
voted almost exclusively to Catholics who
are guided by the infallible authority Of the
church. They know that there is a hell
And it is eternal 1t is for all who die
enemies of the Lord. Those who have
offended God and have refused to repent
are destined TO eternal punishment. Saliva

not desire heaven it is his privilege TO re-
main out. But who is 1t that does not

through our own fault, is the chief punish

slant state of violence. / want TO see God,
the lost souls reverberating cry which Will
never be appeased Do we sufficiently real
ize what 1t means TO have Gods face
averted from us. In our happiest state upon
this earth we see Him but as through a
darkened glass. What then. must be the
ineffable glory of heaven, and on the con-
trary the unspeakable misery of hell.

SOME UNUSUAL CHICKENS.
AndaIusians and "White wonders" at
the Poultry Show.

Two unusual varieties Of chickens, not
down on the books, will be exhibited at the
poultry show next week. The first will be
a coop of Andalusians, which are very rare
in the United States. They are a slate-col-
ored bird, with black points, and in many
longing to the Mediterranean class, and
originally coming from Spain. The other
unusual display will be of white Won
ders." These birds are not often shown
They are what is called in poultry lore
made birds,' and their origin is not known:
A poultry fancier by the name of French
who lives in Massachusetts, developed the
variety, and he is the only one who breeds
them successfully. They are a cross, and
chicken fanciers who have tried to breed
them have had great deal of difficulty.
They are large, pure white birds which ma
ture early, and many claim them to be the
best general purpose bird in this country.
When Mr.. French decides to tell the chicken
world what their origin is they will proba-
bly, be bred extensively.

city to-day and assist Secretary Pottage in

WILL DRAW BIG CROWDS.
Estimates of the Attendance Upon the
n. of p. Encampment.

indianapolis is almost the geographical
center OF Pythianism in the United States.
There are 900 members of the order with
in 250 miles of Indianapolis. 1t will cost but
S. for the round trip for each one of these
to attend the national encampment to be
held here beginning Aug. 20, 1898. This
membership is to be found in the States of
Michigan, Illinois, Ohio and Kentucky. The
membership in the Uniform Rank numbers
fully twenty thousand In these central
States the interest in a national encamp-
ment of the order was never so great as
now The estimates of the executive COM
mittee as to the attendance that may be
expected, it can be readily seen, are by no
means exaggerated. The members of the
order in the State realized what could be
expected in the matter of attendance when
provision was made at the last state en-
members sufficient to realize $l7, 900. The
Iact that the members of the order in In
diana have made such ample provision for
entertainment has gone forth in the Pyth-
ian world, and there is hardly a. subordinate
lodge in the five or six surrounding States
but that has taken some action relative to
honortng Indianapolis with representa-
ton.
The Knights of Pythias encampment will
far exceed that of the Grand Army en-
campment held here, not only in point of
numbers of those who attend, but in brill
liancy, for the camp of the Uniform Rank
will be q spectacular affair unsurpassed in
any national gathering. The business men
of the city are only asked to contribute a
few thousand dollars more than the MEM
bers of the order, as the minimum estimates
of the cost of entertaining the visitors is
$4,000. The business interests of the city
will be benefited to TIE extent of 81, 900 900
and the advertisement of the city will be of
benefit that can never be secured in any
other way. The executive committee will
meet Tomorrow night to further consider
arrangements for the collection of funds.

BASKET BALL GAMES.
The Season Opened Last Night at the
Y. Nj. G. A. Gymnasium.

The basket ball season opened at the Y.
M. C. A. gymnasium last night. There are
four teams in the senior league. They are
to play a series of nine games each for a
championship silver plate of handsome de-
sign, offered by Gardner Bros. e. Ross. The
two clubs scoring the highest points last
night will be listed against the alternating
clubs at the game next week. One game
each week is to be played during the nine
weeks season. There was a large crowd
present to witness the opening games. They
were enthusiastic at some brilliant plays
made, the ladies seeming to take as much
interest as their escorts. There is almost
as much excitement to be derived from a
well-played game of basket ball as from
football, the players in the former often
getting tangled up in as bad scrambles as
they do in the national college game, al
though the brutality that marks football is
lacking from basket ball. There are four
teams in the senior league, known as the
Whites" Earl, captain; "Yelows," Har-
den, captain; Blues" Purves, captain, and
the Reds Charles Pierson. captain Last
Fellows and the Blues against the Reds.
In the first game the Whites scored IL
points and the Yellows 81 In the second
game the Blues scored q and the Reds 10.
Quite an impression was made by the play
ers in their new uniforms.
Charles Pierson, captain of the Reds,
made ten goals, scoring II out of the 10
points made by his team. There are two
methods of scoring goals, one from the field
and the other on fouls. Each goal scored
from the field scores two points, those from
fouls but one. Flemming, of the Whites,
scored six goals. An equal number of goals
were made by Ora Pierson, of the Fellows.
Following were the players and the posi-
tionS they occupied: Whites-Earl and
Shawhan, guards; Roth, center, and JAY
and Flemming, forward. Yellows-Hittle

ARE BEGGING FOR GAS
CITY AUTHORITIES BEGGING THE
GAS COMPANIES FOR FUEL.
Interesting Debate ON Fixtures-May-
or Views SOuth-Side Market
Sites-MunicipaI Notes.

The Board of Public Works is at the feet
of the gas companies asking that the city
be furnished with natural gas for fuel in
the new central police station, Tomlinson
Hall and the Brightwood water works. Re
Gently the gas supply was shut off from
the water works and hall, beside which the
companies are Indifferent about furnishing
gas for the station house. The board wrote
letters to the gas companies about
this subject. That to Bement Ly-
man, of the Consumers Gas Trust Com
pany, said that the board thinks sit is the
duty of your company to furnish us with
the necessary amount of fuel gas needed for
the new police station" He was requested
to inform the board what the city will be
charged.
The letter to John r. Pearson, of the In
dianapolis Gas Company, was couched in
words of respectful entreaty. The board
said:
I'VE beg to say to you respectfully that
we think you should furnish TomlinSon Hall
and the Brightwood water works with
natural gas for fuel purposes" The letter
closed with request that the gas be turned
on at the two city institutions.
Whether gas fixtures are furniture or part
Of the building in which they are suspended
was the most momentus question discussed
by the grave and reverend members Of the
Board of Public Works yesterday morning.
If they are to be considered as furnishings
of the building it would be the duty of the
Board of Public Safety to buy them. Be-
fore this 'weighty question had been raised
the board had advertised for bids. Yester-
day they were to be received. After consid-
cradle debate the board decided it had no
legal right to buy the fixtures and the bid
ders left.
The debate continued after the bidders
left Mayor Taggart and Controller John
son took part in the discussion Mr.. john
son regarded gas fixtures as part of the
permanent improvement. President Down.
ing said that tenants had right to remove
gas fixtures when vacating building.
Mayor Taggart said that it struck him as
being largely matter of sentiment. AS
the city has to pay the bill any way and
as some of the bidders came from other
cities and the city would have to pay the
expense of a new advertisement If the sub
ject were referred to the Board of Public
Safety, Mayor Taggart thought that hair
splitting ought not to be INDUCED in, and
the board should consider the fixtures as
permanent improvements. The board de-
cided to take this view. Couriers were sent
out to bring in the bidders. G. w. Nickel.
of this city, proposed to furnish the fixtures
complete for $1,785 I. w. Wilmarth Com
pany, of New York, $1710, and Cassidy &
Son. Chicago 81, 700. The contract was not
awarded The bids. were referred to Archi-
tect Scherrer for his opinion as to which
should be accepted. The contract Will prob
ably be awarded tomorrow.

AGAIN TO GREENFIELD
co THE TRUSTEES OFF THE BLIND IN
sTITUTE FOR A SUPERINTENDENT.
George s. Wilson to Succeed ". HI.
Observation-Disclosures Cast the
Deciding Vote.

George S. Wilson. of Greenfield, was elect
ed superintendent of the Blind Institute yes
terday, to succeed w. II. Glasscock, on the
fifteenth ballot. The first ballot developed
the fact that each of the trustees of the
institution had a man, and they stuck to
them right nobly. Nelson Bradley, of Green
field, voted for Mr.. Wilson; James l. Allen,
of Covington, voted for G.. NJ. Ballard, of
this city, and John F. Hennessey. of this
city, voted for George W. Benton, of this
city. After ten fruitless ballots had been
taken the board took a recess for half an
hour, but when the balloting was resumed
it was the same story.
Mr.. Allen was confident Bradley would
come to his man on the sixteenth ballot.
but on the fifteenth Hennessey, the wicked
Democrat on the board. slipped in and set
tied the business by voting for Bradley s
man, who, by the way, has always been a
Republican. The new superintendent is
spoken of on all sides as an excellent man
for the place.
Mr. Wilson is native of Hancock county,
and is thirty-nine years old. He was edu-
Gated in the common schools and in the
began teaching country school and later
got a position in the Greenfield schools,
working gradually UP to be principal OF the
High School and later superintendent or the
city schools. In this last position he sue

LOSSES In SMALL FRUITS.
HOrticulturfsts Discuss Experiences
OF Past Season.

The State Horticultural Society continued
its sessions at the Statehouse yesterday
and number Of papers upon different
phases of fruit growing were read and dis
cussed. The small fruits of Jennings county
were told about by p B. Evan, of Hayden.
Snead Thomas, of Marion, read a paper
on the profits of small fruits during the past
season. He declared that while a very few
had found a profit. most of them had not.
More had been lost on strawberries than
upon any other small fruit, and he cited
the instance of a Kosciusko county grower
who had shipped two carloads to Buffalo
and got l cent a quart, after paying the
freight, scarcely enough to pay his pickers.
He attributed the failure to obtain a profit
partly to the fact that the market was
glutted, and partly to the fact that among
commission men are not few who are
too careless of the interests of the shipper.
II was hardly right to let them fix prices.
The paper was very generally discussed and
occupied nearly all the morning. j. C.
Crossman read a paper on the difficulties of
marketing small fruits and the two were
discussed together
In the afternoon N. dinner, of Dayton, o.,
talked on the raspberry and blackberry. j..
II. Hale. of Connecticut, spoke on CONNER
cial peach growing and H. e. Van Deman,
of Virginia. spoke On orchard plans.
At the evening session Prof. Nj. B. Waite,
