strong War Sermon by DIR. Lucas at

DR.. u. r. Lucas, pastor of the Sixth Chris

last night to a well-illed church. He took
member the Maine" and by applying it to
all existing conditions of life, he held the
attention of his audience throughout the
evening. The sermon grew out of the general
talk with regard 10 the adoption by the
soldiers now in the field of the motto as
war cry.
Dr. Lucas In opening. said that we should
remember the Maine first. because we cam
not forget it. Some things connected with
the sad affair have had such personal
bearing on us that nothing can force us to
forget it, and we must remember 1t whether
we will or no. We should remember the

IN THE COUNCIL TONIGHT.
Titles Water Ordinance Doomed
PnN of the Eiremen

The Council meets tonight, and it is ex-
pected that some interesting business will
be done or not DONE as the case may be.
The committee on contracts and franchises
will report on Mr. Titles ordinance cut
ting 10 per cent. the rates of the Indianap-
oils Water Company, and the majority will
report that the ordinance should be referred
to the Board of Public Works, as decided
at the meeting of the committee last week.
Mr.. Little will present minority report, in
which he will show that the city attorney
has stated to him in letter that there is
no legal reason why his ordinance should
not pass, and on this foundation it will not
be a surprise if Mr.. Little says things
about the only reasons which can exist
against the passage of the ordinance.
Though he is a Democrat, he is not at all
satisfied with the way his ordinance has
been treated by fellow-D Democratic men,

men had been judicious in bringing to a
sharp end their howl" about the cut in
their wages. ut is all right said the
speaker, for the fremen to send a CONF
mittee to the controller and protest, but
when they were turned down that should
be the end. They appreciate that they may
either take their present wages or leave
them, and that it Is not healthy for their
jobs to talk too much. Nevertheless it is
believed in many quarters that the subject
will come up in the Council tonight, and
it will not be entirely unexpected if some
member introduces resolutions recommend
ing that the action of the Board of Public
Safety in reducing the tiremen's wages be
rescinded Strong influence has been
brought to bear upon the councilmen to do
something for the firemen and the requests

FAYETTE AND RUSH PEOPLE.
Reunion of the Indianapolis Resi-
dents from These Counties.

Garfield Park was yesterday the scene of
a pleasant gathering of some of the oldest
families of the State. The affair was
more definitely speaking a joint picnic of
Fayette and Rush county residents of In
dianapolis, and it consumed the entire day,
furnishing, however, tine basis of lasting
organization of "old settlers of these coun-
ties. Research has established the fact that
there are in this city about five hundred
residents from these counties, whom it is
desired to gather into an organization of a
social character.
At yesterdays meeting there were COM
paratively few of the entire list present,
but those there decided to effect a perma-
nent organization by the election of officers
as follows: President. Thomas K. Smiley

government cannot and dare not forget
them. nor should the citizens of the country
do so. We should also remember the Maine
In the interest of brave men We lay flowers
on the graves of our dead and remember
them. why, therefore. should we forget
these brave men and not honor them. In
1861, when the civil war began, General Lew
Wallace, then colonel of the Eleventh In
diana Volunteers, administered oath to
the regiment, swearing them to remember
Buena Vista. and the war cry of the Indiana
troops, from beginning to end was "Remem-
Der Buena Vista" This was caused by the
official report of jefferson Davis on the bat
tie. in which he cast pointed slur on the
bravery of the troops from this State en-
gagged in the battle. and this ranked as an
Injustice in the hearts of all Indanians, so
that when the time came they were not
only charged TO remember, but did remem-
Der Buena Vista. We should remember the
Maine in the interest Of religion. All re-
ligions have their memorials. The Christian
on the Lords day, remembers by drinking
wine and eating bread. the cruel death by

Do this in remembrance of Me, that We
may snow forth Ny. death until come"
Thus we are charged in the interest of re-
ltgion to remember all great sacrifices that
are made for humanity.

duty of nation and that of an individual.

During the next hour. when we had made
them prisoners, we divided our ra tons with

not shoot at them from personal feeling,

CAN'T BUY THE MACHINES.
Sweeping Contractor Explains ON the
Question of Dirty Streets.

Quests~an OF Dirty Streets
Mayor Taggs rt and members of the Board
of Public Works were out at daylight yes
terday making a tour of inspection of the
improved streets with view of ascertain
ing what manner of sweeping the contractor
is doing. They found the streets better than
they were led to expect from the recent at
tacks which have been made upon the work.
The friends of c. c. Jones. the contractor,
claim that there has been great deal OF
Misrepresentation in the charges that have
been made, and general misunderstanding
of the situation. 1t is claimed that the
streets are swept as well as possible with
the best machinery ohtainable. 1t is impos
sible for the contractor to get the pneumatic
sweepers which had given such satisfac-
ton under Contractor Furnas. Mr.. Jones
tried to buy or rent these machines but Mr..
Furnas declined to allow him to have them
on any terms The next best machinery
was then obtained and it is claimed the
sweeping here is being done as well as in
other cities.

ton probably started with the executive
