WORKING In ICY WATER.
Broken Main ON Pennsylvania Street
Occasions Unpleasant Work.

A break in water main on Pennsylvania
street, just above Washington street, yes
terday made very unpleasant work for en-
ployes of the Indianapolis Water Company
The water sped up through the asphalt
pavement and washed away the ice and
snow for quite distance. Workmen cut
through the asphalt and connected be-
meath it, and dug quite a large pit down to
the main. The pit filled rapidly with wa
ter. AT midnight q half dozen work.
men, some standing in water waist
deep. were working with a hand pump try
ing to get the water away in order that the
break in the main might be repaired. They
thought that one of the joints was loose
and that the main proper was not injured.
II is supposed that the pipe froze and then
burst, as water pipes so often do.

Jacob P. Dunn, jr.. read a paper last
night before the congregation of ST. Paul's
Church on 1.-THE Indebtedness of English
Literature to the Bible" The chapel was
used for the occasion, and it was we'll filled
with the most intelligent people of the
church. Mr.. Dunn's paper was lengthy and
made up largely of illustration. The line
of the argument went to show that the
great debt of English literature to the Bible
is for ideas, that the religion of the Bible
is practically the only religion recognized
in English literature as religion, that all
the conceptions in English literature of the
Divine Being, of heaven, of mans exist
ence, of the relation of God TO man and of
man to God are Bible ideas.
The argument was not made from a re-
ligious standpoint, but from an historic and
literary standpoint, using only facts based
on historic evidence as distinguished from
religious faith. The argument was freely
Illustrated by quotation from the leading
writer's of English and by comparing the
ideas contained in the best English litera-
ture with those in the Bible, with those in
other religions and with those in other lit
eratureS.

GERMANY TO INTERFERE

London June o9.-The Berlin correspondent OF
THE Daily News" says
The following semi-oiilcial note has been pub
llshed here. apparently with the object Of pre-
paring the world for the landing OF German ma
rines al Manila
LAS yet no statement has reached mere apou'
TIE landing Of German marines at Manila, but IL
is a matter OF course that Admiral Won De
drichs will interfere so soon as It may become
necessary for the protection Of Germans there
Such a measure would have no political sighih-
canoe whatever. Neither al Washington nor at
Madrid have negotiations occurred on TINS mat
ter
The assurance that a landing Of marines
would have no political significance is very nice
The only question IL whether the United states
and other Powers will share this opinion OF
whether the other Powers will see in the and'hs
an act Of Interference compelling them to fol-
low auit
