OF very many short speeches, in which
the action Of the church was severely
condemned, resolution was offered
and adopted asking Mr.. Strong to re-
main in Milton and organize an asso-
for the purpose Of sociological study
and agitation, pledging whatever finan-
cial support could be obtained from
the working people. This also was
caught up and magnified in the paper,
and the town was still reused to ex-
citement by all these reports when
Philip returned home late Saturday
afternoon, almost reeling with exhaus-
ton and his heart torn with the sepa-
ration from his old chum.
However, he tried to conceal his wea-
riness from Sarah and partly succeed
ed. After supper he went up to his
study to prepare for the Sunday. He
had fully made up his mind what he
would do, and he wanted to do it in a
manner that would cast no reproach
on his ministry, which he respected
with sensitive reverence.
He shut the door and began his prep
aration by walking up and down. as
his custom was, thinking out the de-
tails of the service, his sermon, the ex-
act wording of certain phrases he
wished to make.
He had been walking thus back and
forth half dozen times when he felt
the same acute pain in his side mat
had seized him when he tainted in
church at the evening service. 1t pass
ed away, and he resumed his work,
thinking 1t was only passing disor-
der. But before he could turn again
In his walk he felt a dizziness that
whirled everything in the room about
him. He clutched at a chair and was
conscious Of having missed it. and
then he fell forward in such a way
that he lay partly on the couch and on
the floor and was unconscious.
How long he had been in this condi-
himself. He was thankful, when he
did recover sufficiently to crawl to his
feet and sit down on the couch, that
Sarah had not seen him. He managed
to get over to his desk and begin to
write something as he heard her COM
ing up stairs. He did not intend to de-
ceive her. His thought was that he
would not unnecessarily alarm her. He
was very tired. 1t did not need much
urging to persuade him to get to bed.
He awoke Sunday morning feeling
strangely calm and refreshed. The
morning prayer with the Brother Man
came like a benediction to them all.
Sarah, who had feared for him owing
to the severe strain he had been en-
during felt relieved as she saw how
he appeared. They all prepared to 60

CHAPTER XIV.

In the first place the minority in the
church held a meeting and voted to
ask Philip to remain, pledging him
their hearty support in all his plans
and methods. The evening paper, in
its report Of this meeting. made the
most Of the personal remarks that were
made and served up the whole affair in
sensational items that were eagerly
read by every one in Milton.
But the most important gathering Of
Philips friends was that of the mill
men. They met in the hall where he
had so often spoken. and, being crowd
ed out of that by the great numbers,
they finally secured the use of the
courthouse. This was crowded with
an excited assembly, and In the course

AN INJUSTICE REMOVED
DISCRIMINATION AGAINST INDIAN
APOLIs To BE STOPPED.
Grain, Flour and CereaIine Products
-GeneraI Railway News.

Local grain dealers, millers and manu-
facturers of cerealine products are much
gratified that Indianapolis in the matter
of grain and -four rates is to be placed
basis with that Of Chicago. which for
months past has been paying but Is cents
per one hundred pounds Chicago to New
York on flour. while the Indianapolis mill
er had to pay 2Ols cents. as well as the
manufacturer Of cerealine products, and
the Indianapolis grain shipper has been
forced 10 pay 20lz cents per one hundred
pounds on grain when the Chicago grain
merchants paid but Il cents. In comment
ing on this discrimination against Indian
apolis in favor of the Chicago shipper
Arthur Gillette, manager of the Acme
mills, and Mr.. Evans, of the Hoosier mills,
said 1t had practically shut down the
mills in this territory, as the discrimina-
ton made 1t impossible to compete in the
markets with any profit. General Manager
Bates, Of the indianapolis hominy mills.
said this discrimination had more or less
injured their business, and but for the fact
that the products of their mills were of
a character that were in active demand
the effect would have been even more
serious. While ii is not known that Chi
cago shippers were given lower rates on
other commodity freights than the prices
which Indianapolis shippers have had to
compete with in Eastern and export mar
kets, the belief prevails that lower rates
have been granted at Chicago on many
classes of freight than Indianapolis has
enjoyed. Fast freight line men located
here agree with the shippers at this point
that they have been outrageously treated
through the discrimination that Chicago
has enjoyed. and one of the older of the
fast freight line officials said that he had
come to the conclusion that freight off,
Gals In Chicago had the railroad presi-
dents under their thumbs and that any
agreement the presidents might make
would be ignored by such officials. He
wished that the government would take
in hand this whole question of rates and
severely punish any freight official who
contracted 10 carry freight at other than
full tariff rates, as men at other points
than Chicago were practically driven out
Of business through the manipulation of
grain. -four and several other commodity
freights- The fact that an Indianapolis
miller has been obliged TO pay more than
miller in Minneapolis shipping via Chi
cago on -four TO the seaboard shows the
gross injustice that local flour manu-
facturers and shippers OF grain have la
bored under.

BIRDS AND SHADE TREES
Are Considered by the Indianapolis
Audubon Society.

At the meeting of the Indianapolis Audu-
bon Society last night at the Commercial
Club there was during the serving of re-
freshments considerable comment upon the
large interest taken IN the work of the
society since its organization in Decem-
Der last. Members of the society are much
encouraged and work OF larger scope is
being planned.
The report of the committee appointed to
ascertain what If any, ordinances of the
city are now in force relative to the plant
ing, care and protection Of shade trees
was that no ordinances On the subject ex-
ist. The only one found was passed in
1865. and this was, according to court de-
cisions, rendered imperative by the city
charter. The matter was discussed and it
was decided there was no other way than
to appeal to the Legislature for suitable
legislation, and committee OF three will
tain what legislation is desirable.
In the hands of the superintendent OF
public schools is an unexpended sum of
money set apart for lectures before the
pupils and teachers Of the schools. The
Audubon Society has conferred with the
school authorities, and it is probable that
a series of four lectures on Birds" will
be given in the near future.
MIS-. IL. w. AldTInOn TedO d paper Oh
BIRD Migration" The paper contained
many interesting points and received much
favorable comment.
The Rev. W. J. Frazier, Of Brazil. Ind,
read an excellent paper on Bird Protec-
ton" He contended that instead OF plant
ing trees for shade and timber alone such
trees should be planted as would be most
suitable for the habtation of birds of the
section and that plenty OF evergreens
should be planted. He also said that birds,
wild animals and fishes on a mans
premises should be as much his property
as his chickens and swine, and should be
governed by the same laws as far as ap-
plicable.. He made an earnest appeal to
the women regarding the protection Of
birds and their practice of using birds for
headgear adornment. Relative to societies
for the protection of birds he said the
Dickey Bird Society of England had not
long ago a membership among school chill
dren of over 10000 Mr.. Frazier also said
he thought the pulpit OF me country
should take up the tight for the birds The
meeting concluded with light refreshments.

ON A CROSS COMPLAINT
JUDGE feathers GRANTS KATH-
ERYN HI. LEvEY A DIVORCE.
She Is Much older Than Her Husband
The Neller Case-Other Mat
ters I'm the Courts.

Judge feathers. of the Superior Court.
yesterday granted divorce TO Katheryn
H. Levey from Mark Dunn Levey. The
latter brought the original suit for divorce.
but his wife filed cross-complaint and
procured the decree. The Leveys were mar
ried last October and went to live with the
wife's family at Shelbyville. Levey, short
time before his marriage. fell heir to an
estate valued at about $4,000. He was
about twenty-one years old. and the woman
he married was a widow OF about thirty
five. Levey claimed his wife had such
violent temper that he could not live with
her. Mrs Levey made the same accusa-
ton against her husband. AS the story
was related TO the court, the young hus-
band went to Texas on a trip, taking with
him s1,70O. He had little of this sum left
when he returned. and told his wife that
he had been dissipating. She told the court
that he admitted he had become involved
with woman in Texas and had got into
trouble with her husband. 1t was this
feature of the case that caused Judge
feathers to grant the wife the divorce.
Judge feathers also granted a divorce to
Lula May Neller, a good-looking milliner,
who related an unusual story. She was
married to Harry Neller June T. 1897. when
she was eighteen years old. Her husband
was nineteen. He was earning IS 50
week as a drug clerk. They lived at their
respective homes, and he came TO see her
about once a week Finally she fell Ill and
his visits almost ceased. She did not see
him after March, 1898. Young Neller did
not appear in court, but his attorney filed
a statement saying his client had no en-
ployment and could not support a wife.
The court heard part of the evidence In
the divorce suit of John Costello, who
claims that his wife was the cause of his
being turned out of the fire department
Costello told the court that during the
fourteen years he was connected with the
fire department he gave his wife $50 every
month Judge Leathers wants to hear Mrs.
Costellos side of the case and ordered her
summoned to appear to-day.

cursionists this year than the country has

have way OF their own OF feeling the
pulse OF a community. and they say 1t is
beating high for outings this summer.
A number of changes to take effect
March 10 have been made by the reclassi-
fcation committees of the Trunk-line and
the Central Traffic Association. The
changes in many instances restore rates
to the same basis that obtained before
Jan. l last. Cotton goods are reduced ID
per cent. and agricultural implements and
vehicles 20 per cent. 1t is said that fur
Their changes are contemplated.
The Lake Shore will have at its round
houses at division points inspectors both
for day and night service, and the men Sc
that they fitted for the position.
their work will be to carefully inspect
every locomotive on being placed in the
roundhouse. 1t is expected that In this
manner breakdowns OF locomotives on the
road can be materially lessened.
The Lake Shores gross earnings I'm the
five years 1S94-1S9S averaged $20,363.000 per
annum. The advance from this average. or
from $50 753, 900 in 1883 TO s23 613, 900 in 1899
shows Interestingly the fruit OF the revival
of industry during the past eighteen
months. The last annual report revealed
the highest degree OF operating efficiency
yet recorded. the average freight train load
being raised from 321 TO 352 tons. The ex-
hibit for 1899 will be still better.
Employees in the shops of the Lake Shore
at Elkhart are not pleased with orders that
have been issued by the new master me-
chanic, and II Elkhart papers are correct
a strike is not an improbability. He is
charged with wedding out the men and
dismissing many who had been on the
company's pay rolls for many years. One
of the rules complained of is that the men
must not talk during work hours on any
other than shop work, and are limited in
this.
A new map of the new Lake Shore Is
soon to be issued, and when II is done it
will show what an extensive piece of prop
erty the road is getting to be. From Cleve-
land il branches off to the south and west,
forming a network OF roads through Ohio,

Lake Shore system 4,566.19 miles of rail-
road, with combined capital stock Of SILL
667 S35. The Lake Erie & Western, which
is the newest addition to the system, has
725 miles of road actually owned and 167
miles leased and operated.
