RESULT OF SEARCH ORDERS.
Four Young Men Now Under Arrest
for Burglary.

AS the result of an order recently issued
to members of the police force to search all
suspicious looking persons found on the
streets late at night, four young men now
occupy cells at the police station, charged
with burglary They are John Hardin,
twenty years old, living at 437 West Yer
mont street; Frank Dillon, eighteen years
old, living at 636 West Court street; Harry
Hart, seventeen years old, living at the COR
ner of Senate avenue and Wabash street,
and John Powers, seventeen wears old, liv-
ing at $50 Scioto street.
AT 1880 o'clock. this morning Sergeant
Lowe was standing on West Washington
street, between Missouri street and Senate
avenue, with Patrolmen Bolen and Leppert.
Three young men came along and were
searched. One gave a good account of him
self and was released. Harry Dillon, an
other, had pothing about him that led to
suspicion, but his name and address were
taken and he was allowed TO go home The
third was John Hardin, and in his pocket
was found a revolver.
That's Pete Wurtz's revolver" declared
Patrolman Leppert, as soon as he took 1t
to the light. Il am positive know it, be-
cause / have been trying to trade for it."
AS Wurtzs saloon, in front of which the
police ana their prisoner were standing at
the time, had been robbed Friday night,
Hardin was sent to the. police station,
charged with burglary, in addition to carry
ing a concealed weapon. Hardin practically
admitted his guilt, it is claimed, and impl-
Gated Frank Dillon. After morning roll call
the policemen went to Dillon's house, and
Dillon told where the stolen goods could be
found, and also implicated Hart and Powers
The goods taken from the saloon were
found at the corner of Senate avenue and
Wabash streets in room which has recent
~ been occupied by Hardin and Hart. There
was a quantity of tobacco, some cigars and
pipes, and some whisky and another re-
Volver.
1t was afterward learned that all the
goods were not the property of Wurtz. He
identified the revolvers and part of the
goods. 1t was then discovered that the re-
mainder was part of a lot of goods taken
from Gunters West Washington-street BAR
rel house the same night that Wurtz's sa-
loon was robbed. Dillon made complete
confession, admitting that he and his COM
rades had robbed both places.

PREACHING OUT DOORS:
Rev. II. A. Jenkins Holds Services on
Orphans Home Lawn.

The lawn of the Orphans Home, on Col
lege avenue, was the scene of a unique re-
ligious service last night, the Third Chris
tian Church giving the first of a series of
Sunday evening open-air meetings. The
south lawn was lighted with numerous in
candescent lights. and folding chairs fur
rished seats for almost six hundred people.
The congregational singing was strength
ened by a small orchestra. Many heard the
sermon, which was preached by Rev. Burris
A. Jenkins, the pastor, from their carriages
in Thirteenth street. Mr.. Jenkins stated
that the first religious meetings ever held
were those which took place in the open air,
and he declared that he not afraid of
being called an open-air preacher or a
camp-meeting talker. He said that too
many preachers have been preaching from
their church steeples instead of coming
down to the level of the people.
The church officers were greatly pleased
at the success of the first meeting, and will
continue them during the summer months.
More chairs to be obtained this week
and seating capacity of almost one thou
sand will be provided before next Sunday
night.

jenkins Will give an illustrated lecture on

BAILEY ON THE SLATE
COMBINE WILL GIVE HIM THE con-
GRESSIONAL NOMINATION.
Too Much Fun Was Had with the
"CharIie" Cooper Joke in the
Last Campaign.

Just now the Democratic politicians of this
congressional district are giving some con-
sideration to the nomination of a candidate
for representative. District Chairman Tag
CART has not yet issued the call for the pri-
maries and convention. Not long ago he
said the call probably would come shortly
after the state convention, but considering
the defeat the Marion county half-breedS
encountered last Wednesday they are anxi-
Gus to rest few days and get their forces
rallied before going into another conven-
ton. District Chairman Taggart has gone
to Niagara Falls for few days to ponder
over the defeat and incidentally to get a
''much-needed rest" When he comes back
he and the com mit-tee," as Bill" Flynn
styles it-accent on the first syllable-will
have a little conference and then decide
whether Leon o. Bailey shall be the candi-
date or Charlie" M. Cooper. 1t has been
decided by the half breeds that Bailey is
to be sit" "cause he's not free silver
enough to hurt" as one of their number
said the other day. They realize that
Cooper IS easy"
when you have a candidate at whom
people can poke fun, as you Republicans did
at Cooper two years ago." said one, "he
is as good as beaten before he begins. We
can't win if people do not take our candi-
date seriously. Nobody but Cooper ever
took Cooper seriously
Seriously speaking, Bailey has been fixed
on by the Taggart- Morss combine as the
sacrificial lamb for this year. All the stakes
have been set up, the date of the conven-
ton fixed, if not announced, and even now
the ward hustlers are busy fixing the con-
vention states. There is a feeling that it
might be we'll to postpone the convention as
long as possible AT any rate 1t is not likely
to occur before the Republican state con-
vention, Aug. and 4.

SATURDAY HALF HOLIDAYS.
Rev. MIR. Milburn Also Speaks of Fair
Bnnk Prosecution.


Bank Prosecution.
Secular holidays for the working masses
was the subject of discourse yesterday by
Rev J. A. Milburn, of the Second PreSby-
terrain Church. In substance, he said the
working people demand and are entitled to
some opportunity for recreation. Admitting
this fact, it then resolves itself into ques-
ton of when the holiday is to come. The
best interests of society demand that the
Sabbath be kept inviolate, and yet the
country is confronted with the fact that
every year the day is more and more desc
Grated by the workingmen and their fam
lilies The reason for this is found in the
fact that they are denied any opportunity
for recreation on any secular day. In the
opinion Of Mr.. Milburn, this condition will
continue, only in q greater degree, until the
church people take the matter into their
hands and by influence, persuasion and ex-
ample succeed in either obtaining law or
establishing a custom for the granting of
Saturday half holiday for the wage workers.
This custom is an almost universal one IN
England and has proved of great beneht.
The human system, says he, needs some
relaxation, and it is but natural that man
Of little religious proclivltieis snouiq grasp
not allowed to have some unusual enjoy
ment during the week, he will appropriate
the Sabbath for the purpose and no amount
of preaching will stand in the way of the
natural cravings OF man for relief from
the worry and toll of the week. 1t is
waste of energy to preach a respect for the
Sabbath to a man who is kept for week
steadily grinding out a living, when he sees
at his command a day in which he may
crafty his desires for pleasure. If the Sab
bath-respecting people of this city and the
country at large would see to it that week.
day holiday become an American institution,
Mr.. Milburn believes the business of the
Sunday ball game, picnic and drinking sa-
loon will fall off to a marvellous degree.
During the course of his morning sermon
Mr. Milburn touched on the recent prose-
cution Of the proprietor of resort on North
Illinois street by man who bought glass
of liquor there for the purpose of filing a
complaint against the place. He expressed
the opinion that this sort of thing was
straining morality to the point of inviting
general contempt for such methods.

An Eastern paper prints the following
story on an Indiana regiment at Chick
amauga:
"Of the three hundred recruits who ar
rived last night rs were for the Twelfth
New York. They reached camp this morn
irlg, and were greeted with the usual yell.
The raw recruits come in for their full
share of practical jokes, especially in the
way of trying TO make them believe the wild
tales of starvation that yellow newspapers
have been spreading abroad, In the One
hundred-and-sixtieth Indiana a raw recruit
came up TO a noncommissioned officer, who
deliberately drew out his watch and re-
marked:
1t is not O'Clock yet and we do not
draw water rations until g. and then we
have to wait and see If there is enough for
the mules
THE recruit gave a stare of mingled dis
gust at such possible conditions, but with
drew, apparently convinced of its truth. In
the same regiment, at meal time, the cook
of a certain company that had received a
large number of raw recruits. placed on
each plate very small cube of fat meat,
about a square inch of thinly sliced bread
and piece of potato about as large as a
walnut. The older members of the company
took their rations without word, held up
the dimnutive potato with great delight,
smacking their hips in anticipation of such

THE BELGIANs, SYMPATHY.
They Say the American Is a Natural

In letter received Saturday by the Nor

man milwright, A. W. McEowen, whose
departure for Brussels, Belgium, was re-
Gently announced in these columns, he states
that the liveliest interest is manifest on ev-
cry hand in the movements of the American
army in Cuba. Every news item bearing
on this subject is eagerly devoured by both
military and civilian and an undertone of
sympathy for the American cause is every
where discernible. Apropos of the reports
of the hostility of continental newspapers
to America and Americans, Mr.. McEowen
saws that these papers do not reflect the
sentiments of the large majority of the peo-
pie He adds: Dewey is popular hero
here as much as at home, and the Belgians
saw the American is natural born fighter
Spain, they say, is already whipped, and
they wonder why. she does not see the fulfil
ity of further resistance.
