ensign on the Alaska. He proved the
stuff of which he was made 10y risking
his life to save a seaman who fell over
board from the vessel while she was
cruising off the coast of Spain. Heroic
deeds since that time have won him
a gold medal from the state of New
York, silver one from the state of
Massachusetts and gold medal from
congress. In November, 1877, when
the United States steamer Huron was
wrecked off Cape Hatteras, he volun-
teered to swim ashore through the
breakers with line, and after having
been in the water for almost seven
hours, during which he made four trips
from the shore to the vessel, he res
cued many of his shipmates and finally
secured assistance which resulted in
the rescue of over 30 men. On that
occasion he sustained injuries which
caused a slight permanent lameness.
For his heroism on that occasion his
native state presented him with a
sword, and congress enacted special
legislation raising him to the rank of
lieutenant. In 1898 he took a promi-
nent part in the stirring events which
followed upon the revolution in Ha-
wall but at Fourth of July celebra-
ton shortly afterward he caused the
navy department considerable trouble
by a speech made at Honolulu, in which
he welcomed the Hawaiians into the
fold and expressed delight at our ac-
QUESTION of the islands While con-
nected with the bureau of records in
Washington he wrote a book on the
subject of the Hawaiian islands, which,
when submitted to Secretary Herbert,
was in turn submitted to President
Cleveland, with the result that it was
promptly suppressed.

cabbage are easier and moving better, and
the same is true of all kinds of green
stuff. Strawberries are still high, although
receipts are large. Other fruits. as well,
rule high, and this creates a better de-
mand for strawberries. Some very fine
fruit is now offered well as much in
ferior stock. But few green apples are
selling, as they rule too high. Canned
goods and dried fruits are still moving well,
and stocks are being reduced TO such an
extent that the coming new fruits will
meet with ready sale and good prices are
likely to prevail. Groceries are active,
prices on all articles that come into gen.
eral consumption being firm. Sugars are
steadier in tone and coffees and teas are

REQUEST FOR INJUNCTION.
Attempt to Keep a Man from Teach
ing in a Commercial school.

Emmett j. Heeb yesterday filed suit
against William NJ. Redman, his former
partner in the Indianapolis Business Uni
versity. for injunction to prevent him
from connecting himself with another and
similar institution. He ayers that he and
Elisha Osborn purchased the interest of
Redman in the Indianapolis Business Uni
versity for $1,000, and an agreement was
entered into that Redman should not at
tempt TO start or connect himself with any
school for the teaching of commercial bust
ness and shorthand other than the In
dianapols Business University so long as
his former partners were in that business.
After Redman sold out Heeb purchased
Osborn's share. The petition AYERS that in
April Redman became connected with the
Indianapolis Commercial School, which pro-
poses TO start a school similar to his own,
and Redman is to be one of the instructors.
He says Redman has no financial interest
in the school and that his name is only TO
be used for the purpose of advertising ii
and will be greatly to the plaintiffs dam
age. He asks for injunction to prevent
Redman from assisting the school.

The Church and Civilization.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
Incident to the unwilling of the Rocham-
beau statue at Washington, some days
since. Cardinal Gibbons said: THE French
missionaries crossed the seas to America
and preached the gospel to the aboriginal
inhabitants, carrying the torch of faith in
one hand and the torch Of civilization in the
other" No one will deny that the French
missionaries carried the torch of faith
wherever they went. but history does not
bear out the statement that this country or
any other is indebted to the church for
introducing the torch of civilization. We
have abundant proof only recently that
the people of Cuba and the Philippine
islands CROPPED in darkness for hundreds of
years for want of the torch of civilization.
yet the field was open all these years Not
only is il not true that America is indebt-
ed to foreign missionaries for its present
civilizat ton. but. the contrary. America
now enjoys the blessings of civiizat ton
because, in a great measure. of its rejec-
ton of the ideas taught by these same mis-
siOnaries. V
