A very plee ant whist party met st the parlors of the Warner House Satur- day evening s guests of Misses G. L.. Plumb and A. c. Gardner.

Pine Grove Camp Meeting

The camp meeting proper will com mence on Tuesday evening August 18th with consecration service led by Rev B M Adams, the forenoon and after noon of that day having been given up to the meetings of the State Sunday School Association.
 The appointment of preachers for the week of camp meeting has not been an- nounced except that William P Hall, president of The Hall Signel Co.,, will have charge of all the services on Sun day, Aug. 21, and will conduct them in his own peculiar way.
 The managers of the association don't seem to conduct it on business princi- ples, at least they apparently do not believe in newspaper advertising unless it be free advertising. All the newspa- pers in this section are getting weary of gratuitously advertising Piue Grove. and each year the papers contribute less and less space. consequently Pine Grove camp meetings do not draw the crowds they did Ill former year.

THE CHURCHES.

At Christ church Sunday morning the services were largely attended and those who attended wore we'll satisfied. Rev Mir Barnett for his text St. Matthew 20: 19, "Many are called but few are chos- en-" He took for the principal topic of his discussion the fact that many are called and said that this call will come at some time in every one's life. It may be in their early life or it may be in the 1lth hour and that we should answer it ss Christ would have us. But few of the number called and who have answered are chosen and we must try to be one of the few to pass the severe ex- animation of Christ. Mir Barnett in closing urged all to be among the chosen.
 The music, as usual, was very fine. Beside the regular music the choir sang another anthem as last week, taking the words from the 18th Psalm, Bid me, oh Lord, the way of thy statutes and will keep it unto the end The differ ent members took the solo parts very nicely and it was rendered in very pleasing manner.
 PILGRIM CHURCH.
 Rev Mir Burnaby Sunday preached, in the opinion of good many people, one of the best sermons they had heard for some time. His sermon was in a new line of thought which he had been developing during the past two or three Sundays.
 He took for his text l Kings, I97. "And the angel of the Lord came again the second time and touched him and said unto him, Arise and eat" Mir Burnaby said in delivering his sermon, that statue usually stands for a com pleted life. We often need memorials of the way that was taken and that led to completed life. The history of Elijah on Mt. Carmel stands or such memorial and the account of his life under the juniper tree stands also for another memorial. These are both in- terestiug to study but the latter perhaps has the more interest because it gives the footsteps in the mire or clay that lead to the pedestal of the monument.
 To this side of Eliiah's life our thoughts are turned at the present time his despondency and the cause of it. Among the reasons that Mr Burnaby gave for this despondency was that he was disappointed in the outcome of his achievements on Mt. Carmel and that he misunderstood the true method of reform in nations or individuals for not spssmodic, but permanent re- form Is necessary. Elijah also thought the results out of proportion to the manifestation seen of Gods power.
 The bodily weakness of the prophet was the occasion of much of his des- pondency, and also an exaggerated self estimate of his importance in Gods sight.
 At the morning service Sl5 was talk GU up in collection for evangelistic work among the soldiers and sailors.

STEWARDS HOME RUN.
The Second Baseman Cinched Yester-
days Game at Milwaukee.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
MILWAUKEE,, Wis, May 9.-Phillips
pitched out another victory for Indianapolis
to-day while Reidy was so erratic in the
first inning that Mack dragged him out of
the box and sent Terry in to pitch in the
second. and he had one bad inning, in the
eighth, that was fatal. The fielding on
both sides outside of HoTmeisters fumbles,
was excellent Fleming made two brilliant
catches, both of which looked good for
homers. Stewart shone like gem of the
first water with the bat, his home-run drive
in the eighth being the longest hit made
this season. In the first inning Reidy gave
Hogriever his base. Fleming reached first
on Stafford's muff of Shoch's throw, and
Hoffmeister's out advanced each one a base
Motz followed with a hit and brought in
two runs, and base on balls and kahoe's
single helped Stewart home. Motz singled
in the eighth, and Stewards homer to CEN
ter gave the Hoosiers the game MIwau-
kee did not score until the seventh, when
tumble and three hits brought i'm two tall
lies, and in the eighth two hits and an out
sent another tally across the plate About
five hundred people saw the game. Score:
