ION the Brink Of HE'LL

Col. Robert McReynolds win de-
liver his famous lecture entitled "On
the Brink of HeH'' at the First NJ. E.
church South on Tueso ay evening.
Col. McReynolds is an old timer on
the frontier, dating back to the early
70's, when the buffalo and antelope
were plentiful on the plains of Ne
braska. Of him the History of the
City of Lincoln says: He was one of
the pioneer adventurers in the Black
Hills in 1876. During the closing
months of that year he explored
plored Mexico, visited Cuba and
meditated on the deeds of Christie
pher Columbus, while standing by
his tomb in the cathedral of Santa
Domingo. In 1879 he travelled oI Ier
the battle SCARED southern states
and wrote for the press. He was in
the service of the state of Nebraska
during the Brule Sioux war and was
presented with a handsome medal
for services rendered the state. y
He is a man of wide experience, a
deep thinker and profound scholar.
He is the author of several books,
one of the most notable is a political
work entitled THE Luxury of Pow
erty" His new lecture is impress
sive and logical, coming as it does
from a man who for more than
twenty years lived an infidel, then
became converted to christianity, is
calculated to convince the most
skeptical of the divine truth of the
Bible, and the fallacy of the teach
ings of Paine or Ingerson.

AFTER A BIG MEETING.
EndeavOrers VIII Try 60 Capture the
Great 1901 Convention.

At the monthly meeting of the Indianapo-
lis Christian Endeavor Union, held in the
First Presbyterian Church last night, it
was decided to make an effort to secure for
indianapolis the 1901 international C. L. con-
vention. At the last meeting of the union
a committee, with w. ii. Elvin as chairman.
was appointed TO make canvass of the city
and ascertain whether the sentiment of the
people of the city favored inviting the con-
vention TO come here. Mr.. Elvin made a re-
port, In which he stated that he found the
sentiment unanimous, and which closed by
recommending that a formal invitation be
extended to the convention at Nashville this
year.
The convention at Nashville will be held
July TO IL, and large delegation will go
from this city and State. President Burris
A. Jenkins. of the local union. was author
lied to appoint committee of five from
these who will go 20 formally file the IN
vifation at the Nashville convention. No
definite action can he taken on ii at this
time, as the time and place of holding the
annual conventions are fixed only one year
ahead President Jenkins Will name the
committee within a week.
-. The International c.. II. convention would
be valuable to any city. Two years
ago the convention brought together about
50 600 persons in Boston, and last year there
were $1,000 visitors at San Francisco. The
COMMITTEES which goes 10 Nashville will car
~ with IL a formal invitation. having the
signatures OF the officers OF the local union
the State society. the Governor OF the State
and tie mayor Of the city.

DEATH OF FRANK H. HOVEY.
His Accounts Somewhat Tangled, but
No Dishonesty Suspected.

Coroner Brayton has not been able to de-
termine the exact cause of the death of
Frank H. Hovey. There were many symp-
toms of narcotic poisoning, but there was
no criminality in the case the coroner will
not press the investigation further The
contents of the stomach have been retained,
however, for future analysis in case there
should be need of it. The coroner learned
that Mr.. Hovey had been i'll for some days
prior to his sudden death. He had eaten
nothing, and had suffered from insomnia
and complained of pain in the head.
The accounts of DIR. Hovey as secretary
of the State Building and Loan Association
are said to be in a very unsatisfactory
shape, though 1t is not charged that there
Is a shortage. and the directors of the assoc

means. his salary being $500 a year Last
kuckee and kept launch on the lake, but
he told his friends that the launch was given
to him and that his expenses there were no
greater than at home. 1t is thought that
probably Mr.. Povey lost some money in
building two houses recently. ana that he
probably borrowed from the association.
THESE facts, however, the directors of the
association and the friends of Mr.. Hovey
say would not have been a reason for his
committing suicide and they do not believe
that he, took his own r1fe If he had bor-
roWed any money to aid him in the erection

ton. An surety company is on Mr.. Hovey's
bond to the amount of $1,000, and the asso-
citation cannot lose a cent.

WANT EVERYTHING in SIGHT.
Marion County Candidates After All
the Good Places.

There is a growing disposition among Ma
rion county candidates to hog all the
places on the ticket that are of any conse~
quence. For auditor of state there are two
Indianapolis candidates-John w. Minor and
Joseph T. flaming; for clerk of the Supreme
Court, Henry Warrum Joe L. Kelley 0he
latter claims residence in Jennings county,.
and Myron ID. King, mo joke" geologist
George NJ Cheney. and judge of the Appel
late Court Third district, Edgar A. Brown,
sole candidate. One of the big guns yester-
day said that there was no reason why In
dianapolis should not get all the offices for
which IL has candidates.
why should not Marion county get the
places?" asked he. Marion county will
control the convention. Without Marion
county the party cannot carry the State. AS
Marion county goes so goes the State. When
they have to depend on US to do the fight
ing. why not let US have the spoils of bat
tle?'
This attitude of Marion county bosses is
creating no end of hard feeling among cam
didates from other parts OF the State-tha
is, from candidates who are deluded enough
TO believe that there is show of carrying
the election. A good many of them, reaiZ-
Ing that there is not a ghost of show. are
inclined to let Marion county men have the
nominal honor of appearing under the roos-

FOR HACKNEY,s SCALP.
Silver Men still AnxiOus-TwO Candi-
dates Against Him.


One of the real contests of the convention
will be over the nomination of judge of the
Supreme Court, Second district. Judge
Leonard J. Hackney is a candidate for re-
election. The opposition to him comes from
the stalwart 16-to-1 silverites. and is based
on the fact that Hackney was an anti-pat-
form. anti-Bryanite in 1896. In his own
county strong fight was raised against
him early in the winter. 1t was taken up
by the Sentinel, which espoused Judge
Hackneys cause. S. E. Morss, Thomas
Taggart, John W. Kern and other half
breeds are determined that he shall be re-
nominated in order to punish the stalwarts
and show them that if they did control the
majority of the party in 1896 (they claimed
80 per cent?, they are now not supreme,
and must retire and give place to the old
party leaders.
The stalwarts appear equally stubborn,
but it must be confessed that they appear
to be in bad place. They are not even
united on a candidate, and yesterday were
talking about springng a dark horse to-
morrow. Only two names have been thus
far mentioned-Judge Willard S. New, of
Vernon, and Hugh D. McMullen, of Au-
rora There is reason why neither of
these men is entirely safe for the anti
Hackney faction. 1t is their connection with
the lynching horrors of last September in
Ripley county, which is in the circuit over
which Judge New presides and in which Mr.
McMullen practices law. great deal of
feeling exists in the district, particularly in
RIPLEY county, against Mr.. McMullen, be-
cause ne assisted Attorney General ketcn-
am IN conducting the inquiry into the lynch
ing before Justice Craig, at Cross Plains
RIPLEY county. The Hackney people are
using this feeling against Mr.. McMullen,
saying It would imperil his chances of cleo

knoWledged that Judge New could do no less
than order an investigation.
yesterday afternoon there was a pretty
Strong rumor to the effect that both New
and McMullen would withdraw, but their
friends said that they were in to stay until
the race was finished. There was great
zeal 81 indignation on the part of these two
candidates friends when the Hackney fac
tion brought up the lynching subject espe-
cially Judge McMullen's friends, who said
that the very fact that he had aided so Wig

ness OF character and purpose which should

against hope that the Hackney managers,

Hackney crowd should resort to this method
