N. {. HOSPITAL TO
SOON Be REALITY
Institution to Be Located at
Indianapolis Has Been
Contracted For.
WILL BE MODERN AFFAIR.
RICHMOND METHODISTS ARE
GREATLY INTERESTED AND
MRS. L. n. BUNYAN is A MEM
Der OF THE BOARD.

The Indiana Methodist hospital and
deaconess home at Indianapolis, in
which Richmond Methodists are great
" interested, and of the board of
which Mrs. L. H. Bunyan is member,
will soon be reality.
Final contracts for the completion Of
the hospital at Sixteenth and Capitol
avenue, indianapolis, have been closed
by the board of trustees and building
committee, and the architects, Vonne-
gut * Bohn. have been instructed to
push the work as rapidly as possible.
The highest grades of material have
been contracted for The final con-
tracts for finishing the building include
heating and ventilation, smoke stacks,
plumbing and electric wiring. A large
elevator has already been contracted
for. The system of heating will be
what is known as a combination sys-
tenn including direct radiation and
the fan system. The air supplying
the fan will pass through an air washer
so as to eliminate all particles of dust
and dirt before entering the heating
coils The two systems of heating
will be arranged so as to operate indie
perdently of each other. The archi-
tects say this will permit the use of the
fan system alone in ordinary weather
and will provide for a change of air in
each ward and room in the building in
cold weather when direct radiation is
in use.
The elevator is to be of the "plung-
err type, this kind of car having been
chosen for the elements of safety the
system offers. The car rests on steel
piston, which will raise it by means
of water pressure. On the downward
trip the piston descends into a wei
sunk in tho ground the same depth that
the car rises The car is to be large
enough so that a litter with patient,
accompanied by nurse and physicians.

The Indiana Yearly Meeting
Raised Several Hundred
Dollars to Assist in Pushing
Forward the Work.
COMMITTEE ON EVANGE-
LISM MADE ITS REPORT.
This Afternoon Was Devoted
To Educational Matters and
Reports Were Heard From
Various Institutions.

To aid the evangelistic committee
of the Indiana yearly meeting that
body this morning contributed several
hundred dollars to be used by the COM
mittee in pushing forward the evan
gelistic work. The report of the COM
mittee submitted showed that during
the past year s4,95560 was spent in
evangelistic effort throughout the ter
ritory falling within the confines of
Indiana meetings jurisdiction. The
evangelistic committee went into debt
to carry on the work, which it was
thought needfui to do, by borrowing
some hundreds of dollars. Much of
that money spent in the past year was
spent in developing new fields. Evan
geiistic effort in the Whitewater quar-
terly meeting of which the Richmond
Friends churches are members, also
cost few hundred dollars. The spir-
it of evangelism should be continued
it was said with renewed energy but
to do this funds were needed. Prev
ious to asking for the pledges for the
work of the committee the Rev. Allen
Jay spoke of the great work that had
been done in the Puget Sound quarter
ly meeting, "the baby, of the Indiana
yearly meeting. Although several
thousand dollars have been expended
in the northwest and particularly
within the limits of the Puget Sound
quarterly meeting, the Indiana meet
ing has given only six hundred dol
lars to that district. On the other
hand fully $4,000 worth of property
has been decided to the Indiana yearly
meeting by the quarterly meeting.
Allen Jays request FOR money was
quickly responded to and large sum
raised for evangelistic efforts to be
conducted during the coming year.
The report of the evangelistic COM
mittee gave the following statistics
which are very interesting and which
give a clear view of the work done
in the various quarterly meetings of
the Indiana meeting during the past
year:
