Growing Volume Of Money,

The capita man ought to be happy.

throughout the world as equivalent to

the first time the money in circulation
has passed the $4,000, 100000 mark, and

Uses of Coal Oil.

A noted physician relates this little
incident of his early practice: A lady
brought her little boy suffering from
heat and injudicious feeding. He pre-
scribed cooling drinks, a bath and
sleep. The mother, indignant, went to
another doctor and got some pills;

often rich in resources we know not Of
as they are too common to be appre-
ciated. Common sense works wonders
IN using what we have on hand. Try
the virtues of coal oil; few drops on

spoonful in a boiler of clothes is equal

WHITE DID NOT TESTIFY
EVIDENCE TO SHOW HE STRUCK
WILLIAMS IN SELF DEFENSE.
Argument I'm the Case Commenced
Suit for Dissolution of Partner
ship-The Courts.

The defense in the case of Wayman
White, charged with the murder Of George
Williams. rested yesterday afternoon with
out putting White on the stand. The ar
gument was taken UP. but was not fin
ished when court adjourned. and will be
continued to-day. The defense introduced
evidence to show Williams was struck on
the head with a club by White in self-de-
Tense and in defending his brother. Maurice
White. Bert Ward and Joseph Patterson
testified that they heard Williams say he
paid his way into the hall and that he
would kill somebody or get in, and that
Williams had something that glittered In
his hand. The fight started between Maur-
ice White and Williams and occurred on
the sidewalk in front of the colored Odd
Fellows Hall on Indiana avenue. Here
Patterson said he heard Wayman White
say to his brother, kid, you're cut" and
then hit Williams over the head with his
cane. Maurice White testified that his
brother acted in self-defense. Lewis Lo-
gan, Fred Martin, William III. Johnson
and Mrs. Belle Harrington testified for
the State and said that White followed
Williams a distance down the street and
beat him over the head.

A SPEED WAR PROBABLE
BIG FOUR's NEW TRAINS CREATING
STIR IN RAILROAD CIRCLES.
Some Roads Said to BE Paying Com
missions Under n New Name-Earn-
fngs of the First Quarter of 1900.

Cleveland Leader.
The Inauguration of the Big -Four fast
train between this city and ST. Louis prom
ises to open a season Of competition be-
tween the lines in this territory for West
way of quickening schedules and making
close connection. Heretofore. with a
scheduled time OF between fifteen and six
teen hours to st. Louis. the Big Four has
been on equal footing for Western bust
ness with other lines which have been op-
Grating through Chicago. The latter city
has been the acknowledged gateway to the
far West for certain business, although a
good portion of the travel went through st.
Louis and Cincinnati, especially when the
objective point was the middle West or the
Southwest. Some of the connections for
the coast points have gone through Chi
cago and then down to ST. Louis and then
on to Kansas City. With the Big -Four
quickening its schedule to ST. Louis by bet
ter than an hour and half and with a
service out of here at a convenient time In
the morning that road will have an advan-
tage which the other lines think it neces-
sary to attempt to overcome. The pro-
gramme is now that these other lines will
adjust their schedules to meet this opposi-
ton. Now that the railroads have forbid
den themselves the privilege of equalizing
conditions by making difference i'm rates,
the only way out of these difficulties will
be through the medium of speed wars,
which are likely to be numerous and fierce.
When such a campaign will be started is
purely conjectural, but IL is believed that
the time is not far away.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
In the issue of your excellent paper April
TO- under the above caption, is an article
to the effect that DR.. Charles III. Partkurst,
of New York city, is making war on the
Westminster Confession of Faith, going
so far as to say that it had better be given
to a museum than try to amend 1t. / say
Amen! good doctor. He says: 1--WE ought
to have a new Confession of Faith" 1--WE
want new creed" He pleads for 'sim-
pie. brief. Saxon statement" Why not take
the simple, brief, Saxon statement" of the
Bible, the creed and confession of apostolic
times, 1. e., Il believe that Jesus Christ is
the Son of God" (Acts viii, 80. That SIM
pie confession embraces every essential
fact. command and promises of Christian
ity and the Bible If Christ be the Son of
God. the Bible is true. If Christ be not the
Son of God the Bible is false. Upon that
proposition Christianity must either stand
or fall. That proposition embraces, in its
antecedents and consequences, each and
every article of the "One Faith" 1t was
the only confession asked for, and the only
confession made in apostolic times. 1t is
the grand fundamental truth upon which
Christ said He would build His church.
Matt. xvi, 1913. Moreover, Christ said,
whatsoever therefore, shall confess me
before men, MIN will / confess before my
father which is in heaven" Matt. X, 32).
Paul says, THE righteousness which is of
faith speaketh on this wise. If thou wilt
confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God
has raised Him from the dead, thou shalt
be saved" (Rom. X, go What more can
we ask? What more could we wish? Why
make new books, creeds and confessions
when the Bible sets forth the simple, brief
and all-embracing divine confession.
We have divine authority and apostolic
example for the confession, Jesus Christ
is the Son of God" That proposition is the
creed OF the Christian religion and the only
confession upon which the Christian world
can ever unite.

MAMIE ARNOLD'S STORY.
Says She Married Man Named Beck
for $3.50.

Mamie Arnold, alias Beck, was arrested
by Detectives Asch and Griffin. She is a
fugitive and is wanted at Cincinnati on the
charge of stealing $3.50. She has relatives
in this city and has been stopping at the
Sherman House for three or four days. She
was arrested when she was about to
change her place of residence. Two hun
dred and forty dollars was found in her
possession, but it was not secured by Asch
without a hard struggle. The woman told
the detectives that she lived in Cincinnati,
and about ten days ago, at the solicitation
OF several doctors, she married a man
named Beck upon condition that she be
given $3.50 in cash as soon as the ceremony
was performed. She got the $3.50 and after
living with him for two days left him and
came to Indianapolis. There is thought to
he moro to the case than she tells. The
Cincinnati authorities will be mere to-day
to take her back.

ton of Partnership.

Israel ]. Conarroe filed suit, yesterday.
against William T. McCarty for dissolution
of partnership in cancer cure business In
which they are engaged, an accounting of
the debts that have been collected and for
the appointment of a receiver. He asserts
that the agreement was that they should
share equally the expenses and profits of
the business and that the partnership
could be dissolved at any time either party
desired. He alleges that April 6. 1900, Nc
Carly took entire possession of the prop
erty and books, demanded his keys to the
office and has since attempted to exclude
him from their place of business. He also
alleges that McCarty began. in March. to
appropriate money collected for the firm
to his own use, that he is in debt to the
firm and that he refuses to make an ac-
counting.

McCarty for $500 damages, alleging that
he was induced, by false representations,
to invest $500 in cash for half interest in
the business and TO be let into the alleged
secret of "McCarty's Cancer Cure" for
which, he said, McCarty claimed to have
been offered $1,000 He asserted that Nc

paying $3.50 month. but at the end of two
months the net receipts were ST.
