| Gives His Life to Save Another.
William Phelps and James
Stransbury (colored) were clean
ing the inside of an upright boiler
in an Indianapolis factory Satur-
day afternoon when an employe
turned on the steam, thinking the
cock was tight. 1t leaked and the
scaldipg steam poured IN on the
two men. The only exit was up
a ladder to a manhole in the top.
Both jumped for the ladder.
Phelps reached it first, took one
step and stopped. He jumped
aside and shouted: "You go first
Jim; you are married"
Stransbury sprang up the lade
der and escaped with slight burns
about the face and legs. Though
Phelps followed at his heels, his
act of heroism cost him his life.
Both men were being cooked when
Phelps jumped aside. By the
time he had followed Stransbury
up the ladder the flesh was drop
ping from his limbs. He was
cooked alive, and with supreme
effort dragged his scalded body
from the manhole. He lived for
two hours in terrible agony, but
did not let a groan escape him.
cit was Jim's right to go first"
said he quietly. "He is married"
Phelps had been boarding at
Stransbury's house.
All honor to this grand man.
The people of Indianapolis should
erect a monument to his memory.

MIR. BYRAN'S SERMON.

Daily Argus, Monday.
Those who wershipped with the
Presbyterian congregation Jester
day, were fortunate in hearing a
sermon of striking interest and
great force and beauty, by Rev.
Jno. w. Bryan, from the familiar
but ever new and startling ins
quiry, "What think ye of
Christi"
A rapid review of the predics
tions as to Christ's coming, and
His mission, from the declaration
in Genesis that "the seed of the
woman shall bruise the serpent's
head, ito the last recorded in Mali
chi; of the testimony of Christ's
coming, of His life, words
and works; of His crucifx-
ion, resurrection and ascension,
the life and work of His disciples
in all succeeding ages, the exiss
tence and work of HIS church}the
assembling of that congregation
at that time to engage in His
worship Of praise as recorded in
the New Testament, were the out
lines of this truly fine sermon.
The Incidents, his known puri-
ty of life. and consecrated Chris
tian character;his simple, earnest
manner, his legal training,
together clothed the subject with
new and engrossing ;and
formed a sermon that the mind
loves to linger over, and the
heart to dwell upon.

THE DAMAGE TO COTTON.

Reports from Alababama, Mis-
sissippi, Tennessee, Arkansas and
Georgia show that the late cold
snap has killed a large percentage
of the cotton which was just mat
uriDg and that much replanting
will be necessary. It is added that
there is a shortage Of planting
seed owing to the enormous de-
mands of the cotton seed oil mills,
very many farmers having sold
all their seed except enough for
one planting. This means that
much of the acreage originally in
tended for cotton will have to be
diverted to other crops.
On the face of it this looks like
a calamity, but it is almost sure to
prove a blessing in the end. The
farmers of the South had prepared
for a large cotton crop this year.
The high price which the staple
has brought for eighteen months
past encouraged them in this pur-
pose and the prospects up to the
time of the recent cold spell were
that the present year would wit
ness the largest acreage for sew
eral years, if not in the Sou'h's
history. This is the first essen-
tial of a big production, aud over
production-the mere expectation
of it-means a lowering of prices
and generally a drop below what
the actual production justifes.
If the fact becomes known that
only a moderate crop is to be
grown there will be little or no
danger of a collapse in values.
Unless the extent of the recent
damage and the shortage of seed
have been greatly exaggerated this
years crop will not be unreason-
able. In fact, the country may
witness a small yield, in which
event the farmer will realize such
a price as will far more than com.
pensate him for the damage suss
tanned by unfavorable weather
eaS0ns.

The Supreme Court on Tues
day handed down an opinion il
the case of r. E. Pipkin, of this
city, VS.. Wilmington & Weldon

interes, to the truckers of this
section.
In July, 1899, Mr.. Pipkir
shipped several car loads of wa

were delayed en route about one
week and when they reached
New York we're practically IN
saleable.
The delay occurred on the
Pennsylvania R. r. Mr.. Pipkin
brought action against the W. &
w. r r., to recover damages, ais
leging that the W. & w. R. R.,

sonable excuse for the delay in
shipment.
He was represented by N1essrs.

ed by Messrs. Aycock & Daniels.
Mr.. Pipkin recovered judgment
in the Superior Court for the
value Of the watermelons, an
appeal was taken by the defen-
dants and the Supreme Court
has affirmed this Judgment.
The case does not decide that
in al cases where there is delay
the railroad company is liable
but, that where the delay is un-
reasonable, Or where IL could
have been avoided by reasonable
diligence On the part of the rail,

lay could have been foreseen and
provided against, that in these
cases the railroad is liable.
This is the first case of its kind

A MEMORIAL BY SINGERS.
Members of the Saengerbund Mourn
for the Late President.

No sounds of music and song were
heard in the hall of the Saengerbund last
night. The regular rehearsal OF the bund
was dispensed with and the evening was
entirely given over to mourning and
memorial service in token of respect to
the memory of the late President Nc
Kinley. The United Singers of this city,
consisting of the Saengerbund and the
Arion Singing Societies, had set aside the
evening for the solemn occasion and the
concert hall was completely filled with the
members and friends of the organization.
The hall was draped in mourning emblems
and the large portrait of the martyr
President was almost hidden from view
by the Stars and Stripes, bound together
by scarf of black. The exterior of the
building was also draped and a general
air of sorrow pervaded the place which
otherwise is given to the cultivation OF
songs of life and happiness.
Frank Claudy, the President of the
Saengerbund. occupied the chair and in
eloquent words stated the object of the
length on the noble qualities of character
of the late President, whose life as an
American citizen, he said, had been
throughout high and worthy
example for all ages: that as a statesman
his fame would go down to pOsterity as
most honorable and wise. and indicating
his solicitude for the welfare of his coun-
try ''As a husband" Mr.. Claudy said,
President Mckinley was always kind
and a splendid illustration of that which
the head of every household should earn
estly endeavor to be" Mir. Claudy also
said that President Mckinley had always
been a great adnlirer of the heavenly
muse song, and that on many occasions
he expressed his delight in giving praise
to the cultivation of song.
THE whole audience was visibly moved
by Mr. Claudy's address and after he had
concluded the singers rendered F1eming's
solemn and sympathetic 'Integer Vitae"
with beautiful effect. John Waldman.
Vice President of the Saengerbund. and
Adolph Levy also made short addresses
enjoining these present to emulate the
citizen virtues of their lamented and be-
loved President and always to be useful
and law-abiding citizens.
