CALL TO REV. P. W. BROWN
HE WILL BE ASKED TO ASSUME Ply
MOUTH PASTORATE.
He Is n Prominent Minister of Joplin,
Mo-, and Has Been Heard i'm
This City.

At meeting of the congregation of Ply
mouth Church behind closed doors last
night at the Temple, where the church Is
temporarily holding session, is was decided
to call the Rev. Paul w. Brown, of Joplin,
Mo-, to succeed Rev. II. C.. Meserve, who
resigned some time ago. DR.. Brown deliv-
cred a sermon to the Plymouth congrega-
ton about a month ago, but not with a
view to taking the pastorate However,
he was liked so we'll that it was decided to
invite him to take charge.
The Rev. Paul w. Brown is one of the
best-known ministers in the Congregational
Church, and is at present in the leading
church of that sect in Joplin. He Is a man
of wide experience, having been assistant
pastor of one of the largest Congregational
churches in Kansas City and an editorial
writer on the Kansas City Journal He has
worked in a number of mining camps in
Wisconsin, Colorado and Missouri Just
what Dr. Brown will do in regard to the
call to this city is not known but he will
be at once informed and strongly urged to
accept.
The call of a new minister to Plymouth
Church darkens the idea of the North Con-
gregational and this church combining, and
ii is hardly probable that such thing will
take place if DR.. Brown decides to come.
The matter is yet under advisement, but
nothing will be done until new pastor is
secured.

The Passage of House Bill No. 100
Does Not Give Freedom to GhOuls
Now Under Indictment.
ANATOMICAL SCIENCE BILL
MEN THAT WERE INDICTED WILL
BE TRIED UNDER OLD LAW.
Attorney General Miller Makes a
Statement of the Case-The Stat
utes Quoted.

A sensational story was published in an
afternoon paper yesterday which purport-
ed to show that since House bill No. 100,
entitled "A bill for an act for the promo
ton of anatomical science and to prevent
the dissertation Of graves has been passed
by both houses and signed by the Governor.
and has become a law because of the emer-
gency clause, the men now under indict-
ment for grave robbing in Indianapolis and
other cities of the State would escape
prosecution because the bill repeats all
other laws on the subject, and the law
under which they were indicted is thus
wiped from the statutes
The story is without foundation, as the
following citation from Section 24s, of
Burnss Revised Statutes of Indiana, on
the effect of repeal clearly shows:
And the repeal of any statute shall
not have the effect to release or extinguish
any penalty, forfeiture or liability in
CURED under such statute, unless the re-
pealing act shall so expressly provide and
such statute shall be treated as still re-
naming in force for the purpose of sus-
tanning any proper action or prosecution
for the enforcement of such penalty, for
fixture or liability"
House bill No. 100 creates a state COM
mission to receive and distribute among
the various medical and dental colleges
all the bodies that can be lawfully secured
for dissecting purposes. and provides new
law for the punishment of ghouls. The
repeating clause in the bill reads: "All laws
and parts of laws not within the purview
of this act are hereby repealed" The bill
was direct result of the recent grave
robbery exposure in Indianapolis, and pri-
marily seeks to remove the incentive to
the work of ghouls by providing bodies
for the colleges in legitimate manner.
The rumor that under the provisions of
the bill DR.. Alexander Rufus Cantrell and
the other men under indictment in this
county for grave robbing would escape
further prosecution gained currency about
the Statehouse last evening, and was then
quickly circulated all over the city.
Attorney General Miller, when asked
about the matter. laughed and said that
any lawyer should be able to explode the
theory at once.
II do not know what laws the bill in
question repeals,' he said, land it Is pos
sible that 1t may not repeal the one under
which the grave robbers were indicted, but
even if it does there Is a law on the
statutes placed there in 1877, that express
will be prosecuted under the law that was
in force and effect at the time the crime
was committed and at the time they were
indicted. An act repeating that law can
have absolutely no effect on their cases
unless 1t expressly provides that no prose
forced under the repealed law"
The provision in the statutes to which
Attorney General Miller referred is Section
| 24S, quoted above.

CURIOUS INDEED.
The Suicide an Object of COntumely
I'm All Places Save Possibly One,
and That the Most I'M
pOrtant i'm the State.

A State Legislature seems to be the only
place in existence in which the crime of
suicide has ever received attempted ex-
culpatory recognition of any kind In
state assembly this sort of partial excuse
for the suicide and endeavor to lift from
him some of the consequences of his deed
takes the form of bill in which it is pro-
posed that self-murder shall be no bar to
the payment of life insurance policy. Such
bills have sometimes been introduced, and
some are pending in Western legislatures
this winter.
Just why the suicide should have been
reprobated in all chimes and eras. only to
be encouraged in the present age with the
belief that he may try to add the robbery
of insurance company to his crime of
self-murder is not very clear. Perhaps the
gentle legislators who Introduce such
measures are themselves life insurance adj
vocates at heart. who are trying to convey
the idea that because a man has been SEN
sible enough to take out policies he has
thereby condoned any sin of which he may
subsequently be guilty, self-immolation in
cluded. But his fellow-members who are
asked TO contribute the amount OF his in
surance can hardly be expected to take
such a benign view of the case. They have
the courage and decency to live in the face
of just much trouble the suicide, and
naturally object to help support his family
In affiuence after he has cut short his own
worthless life.
The man who kills himself outrages God
and his fellow-man. Why should the most
important assemblage of every State in the
Union. its Legislature. be the only place
where the suicide Is occasionally told that
when he makes away with himself he ought
TO have chance TO clear some money by
the job?

MISSING MAIL POUCH.
Two indianapolis Postal Clerks Are
Held to Blame.


The blame for the Louisville mail pouch
missing from the postofice i'm this city has
been fixed on two clerks in the postoffice
by Inspector Fletcher in his report to the
department at Washington. Mr.. Fletcher.
after the pouch received here last
week, went to Cincinnati and also accom-
panied clerks on the j., NJ. & /. train who
were known to have handled the pouch.
From the stories gained he found that the
fault lay with two clerks in this city. Mr..
Fletcher referred the matter to the merit
board in this city, and he said yesterday
that the two clerks who were guilty of care
lessness would be given reminder" He
declined to state what this reminder
would be. He said, however, that neither
of the clerks would be dismissed from the
service.
Mr.. Fletcher's search revealed that one of
the railway mail clerks had discovered that
the leather pouch was damaged and he
placed the extra letters in a canvas pouch.
This was placed inside the leather pouch.
When the pouch was received here the Indi-
annapolis clerk, after taking a few letters
out of the leather pouch thought the can
vas pouch contained empty sacks. 1t was
then sent to the Cincinnati Office which is
a depository for surplus equipment.

APPELLATE COURT,
Parties Must he Prompt to Assert
Right of Change of Venue.


Right of Change of Venue.
The Appellate Court yesterday held in
the case of NJ. III. Smith against a Hunt
ington land company, that action to re-
scind for fraud and to seek change of venue
must be prompt. Because Smith failed to
act promptly, when he learned a son of the
judge trying his suit was interested in the
land company, in seeking a change of venue
the court sustained the Huntington Circuit
Court for refusing a change of venue
The court also held in the case of Osborn
against Hall, appealed from Hendricks
county, that changing the interest in a note
between the parties after the note was ex-
ecuted did not vitiate the instrument. The
change, it was shown. was made in the
interest of the maker of the note and cor
