AN ARCHITECTS VIEWS.
what David Gibson Thinks of the
Elevated Track scheme.

1.-The question of elevating the railway
approaches into this city has been one in
viting many diverse opinions" said Archi-
tect David Gibson. 1T believe that II the
present system is changed at all Ii should
be by excavation rather than elevation,
according to the scheme OF E. F. Claypool,
which / think was at one time presented
to the Commercial Club. This is on the
same principle as the New York Central
Railroad enters the Forty-second-street
Station in New York city. This. I be-
lieve, could be done at about the same cost
elevation. and would eliminate the
depreciation OF millions of dollars TO the
abutting real estate. There is now in pro-
cess of promotion an auditorium and COM
mercial museum involving the expenditure
of about $4,000. It occurs TO me that

EVENTS AT TURNER PARK.

near Fairview Park, yesterday did not
conclude until a late hour last night
The crowds that gathered at the park dur
ing the afternoon and evening were larg-
er than anticipated, but everyone was Civ
en- a good time. The park Is situated this
side of Fairview Park and consists of
five acres, which were purchased at a
cost of $500. and this spring the MEM
bers of the Turnverein expended $500 in
improving the place. A clubhouse was
erected, with dressing rooms, bars, ETC.,
bowling alleys were constructed and the
out-of-door amusements consist OF swings,
rope ladders. etc. 1t is the intention OF
the Turnverein to place a half-mile foot
and bicycle track on the grounds next
year.
The sporting events yesterday were very
interesting and In addition to this kind
of amusement there was dancing. The ath-
letic exercises were conducted by the So
cial Turnverein Society and a number of
South-side Turnverefn members partici-
pated in the events. In the jump and three
step event there were some interesting
records made. Max Emerich made the best
record by registering AIS feet. while Louis
Mas made 39.1 and John Niehling. of the
South-side club, made 80 feet In climb

Witcher w. Keen and DR.. A. M. Cole,
two well-known young men of this city.
were in a most embarrassing, not to say
dangerous plight for a short time yester-
day morning. Mr.. Keen has recently pur-
chased a new boat and yesterday morn
ing he invited his friend Cole to come out
to Broad Ripple and have a ride In the
new craft. The boat did excellently as long
as the owner handled the oars alone. Final
ly, however, Keen undertook to pull a
race with another young man who was
rowing with a girl. The race became quite
spirited. but DR.. Cole decided that he ought
10 lend his strength and he grabbed hold
of one of the oars. The result was a cap
sized boat and two struggling and fault
lessly-dressed young men in the water,
which at that point was about fourteen
feet deep. The other man and the girl won
the race. but this was not the worst of
the affair. AS Keen and Cole pulled them
selves into the boat an audible giggle
brought the red to their faces. They guessed
that the giggle came from the lips of the
pretty girl in the boat ahead.

NEW PASTORS SERMON
DISCOURSE OF REV. III. c. MEsERvE
AT PLYMOUTH CHURCH LAST NIGHT.
Children's Day Exercises Held I'm the
Inherent City Churches and
at Irvington.

Rev. III. c. Meserve, pastor of Plymouth
Church. delivered brief sermon last night
on the practical Bearing of Our Thoughts
Upon Our Daily Life" He said in part:
I'VE have been looking at the Bible all
the time rather az a tradition than as
fact, but I think we have now reached
time when we should discriminate in our
reading Certainly the time has arrived
when we may take the Bible and read 1t
with as much discrimination as any other
book. If we look in the first epistle OF
John we shall find that he says: If we
say that we have sin, We deceive our
selves, and the truth is not in us. If we
confess our sins, He is faithful and just
to forgive our sins, and to cleanse us from
all unrighteousness.' The fact of sin needs
no demonstration for II is very apparent.
Our lives are clogged with 1t and every
way In which we turn is made hard by
reason of IL. II sin is defined to be i'm
perfection, then We must do our best to
eliminate our imperfections. What shall
be our attitude toward this ever present
evil? Sin is something which comes in
contact with our lives, and IL we find that
it any way binders the perfect understand
/ lIS tHdt chOuiu t4lSt pSlWctIl US anu our
Father, we must confess it in order that
we may be cieansed from all unrighteous-
ness. I suppose in this world to-day that
when we have come in contact with sin and
have realized that we are not TO yield to 1t,
We will begin to see there is personality
in touch with US to which we can always
turn for help. This personality we may
call Jesus Christ, or the Holy Spirit, but
howsoever We may call upon our Father
we.know that He is our friend
Then again IL Is not what we do, but
the spirit in which we do IL that governs
the measure of our influence with men. 1t
was the love and sympathy Of Jesus Christ
which won the hearts Of men, and so must
ii be with Us. We may profess fellowship
with Jesus Christ and believe that We walk
with Him, but If we do not do the things
He would have us do, we but deceive our
selves 1t is the love and sympathy We
give to our fellow-men that will live after
us and go on and on doing good in the
world. IT is not what we are, but what
we aspire to be under God. If we serve
Him even in a small place let serve
Him with all our hearts. IL we pour out
our lives at the feet of the Master and
through our love and sympathy save even
one SOUL we have followed in the foot
steps of the Master and worthy to be
called the savior OF man. IL is these things
that Jesus would have us do"

DISTURBED BY THE STORM.
Children's Day Services at the Irving
ton Christian Church.

ton Christian Church.
The Children's day exercises OF the Ir-
vington Christian Church were disturbed
by the storm last night, and the better
part Of the programme was cut out to al
low the timid ones to leave the church and
be caught half way home in the rain. AS
the wind began to blow and the ightning's
flash became keener. interspersed with
more frequent and louder claps of thunder,
an uneasy movement was perceptible over
the house. In the midst of a song several
mothers went to the front of the church
to get their children, while the fathers
wendell their way to the doors to take a
forecast of the possibilities.
One or two parents, with their children
tightly wrapped In extra wearing apparel
that had thoughtfully been brought along
left the church. The dispersion then be-
came general. By the time the song was
finished there was commotion in every
pew. Then came few brief announce
ments followed by the statement that
the programme would be discontinued with
a parting song. but by the time 1t was
finished half the congregation was on its
feet, and the doors were crowded. 1t had
begun to rain, but some ventured out any,
way, while others remained in the church
until the storm was over.
The programme was a regular Children's
day cantata, in which Maud Russell Sidney
Hecker. Jeneva Edgington. Ruth Arbaugh.
and Lee Moffett had declamations. Prof.
Coleman, of Butler College. delivered an
address touching on the work of missions.
There were a number of children who be-
came members of the dollar League"
These were Melissa Seward, Dola Pente-
cost. Mable Pentecost, Mable Allen, Verna
Sweetman. Ruby List, Arthur Norman,
Vida Coombs, Louisa Norman, Hiram
Leonard. Lee Moffett, Margaret Williams
and Ruth Davenport.
Children's day was observed yesterday
in many of the city churches with interest
ing exercises. AT the First Presbyterian
Church the Children's day programme took
the place of the regular morning services
at 10:45. The children's programme was
carried out at the Meridian-street NJ. E.
Church in the evening. AT Plymouth
Church flowers were presented to the
children. and the programme of exercises
was carried out In the morning. At the
Edwin Ray NJ z. Church a large chorus
of children sang at both morning and even
ing services. Exercises by the children
took place at Central-avenue Church.
Grace NJ. E. Church and the Central Chris
tian Church in the evening. The exercises
