One of the most prosperous churches
among the Baptists of this city is the one

In 1894 40 members were granted letters by
the First Baptist Church to enter into the
organization. They erected a building at a
cost of $1,000 on Michigan street near the
Middle drive of Woodruff Place. and when

The Baptists of this city have contrib
uted more largely to the educational work
of their denomination than have those of
any other city in the State. On the other
hand. they have been greatly encouraged
and helped by the reflex influence of the
educational work as conducted in Franklin
College At the present time four of the
twelve churches have pastors who were
educated in Franklin College. and the pull

Delayed Magazine Articles.

The Wood Runcie-Baker article on Gen.

peared within few months of the time
when it was written, and was subjected to
much less delay than most magazine arti-
cles. Yet the situation had so changed
when it was published that two of those
concerned in the publication would have
been glad had it been entirely suppressed.
Similar changes in conditions have hap
pened in a great many instances between
the writing and the publication of magazine
articles, but few have caused so much
embarrassment. A conspicuous editor and
publisher in New York wrote for religious
periodical of this city<an article on phase
of the negro question in the South, and
to see the thing published and widely
quoted as coming from him.
He had forgotten that he had ever written
such an article, had materially changed
his opinion on the question discussed and
had grown much in Importance shat
whatever he said in print was much more
significant than 1t would have been at the
time his article was written. He was able
TO explain the affair to his friends, but he
did not take the trouble to enlighten the
gcnoral puNlic.
The late III. III. Boyesen once complained
that one of the best-Known literary month
lies had held an article of his for more than
six years and that at time when his repu-
tation was growing. His experience was
like that of scores of other men more or
less well known in letters.
Even specially ordered and advertised
articles often held for many months
by the magazines and not published within
the year for which they are announced
Some such articles are paid for before
publication, but in many instances the
writer's have TO whistle for their money.

shepherdless for some years. but was served
by such ministers as Byron, Lawrence,

and served until 1895. when the Rev. ]. l..

pastor and served until 1sf7. when he re-

reached the point of being one of the large
contributors to missions and denomina-

Of College-avenue Church were some of the
most liberal and broad-minded men and
women Of Indianapolis, and these set

For a number of years College-avenue was
the most liberal supporter of Baptist enter

When the church observed its twenty-fifth
