U.S. TO-DAY '8 Sir. V. E. Ztti Silts Cp tba Situation in West Indianapolis.

Mr. W. B. Kecd, an aotive Republican of West Indianapolis, sizes np tho political itnatton as follows: "I am thoroughly satisfied as to tho result of to-morrow's election. Shinn and Bakeriam will receive a xehnko at tho polls.

Tho interest manifested by tho better class' of citizens in the result of to-morrow's election means that the public appreciates the importance of retrenchment and a wise eeooomy of public expenditures. It is true that the classes which exist in every community whose interests are opposed to good government will op-poso tho Bepnblican nominees; but, with the better citizens of both parties standing aolidly together in the demand for better town government, I feel satisfied that the bum element will cut but little figure in tho election. Their only hope is to elect the small boy Elliott, who is running in the First district. With him they will etlll control the Board of Trustees by reason ot tba fact that Dickson holds over. Tho rest of the Democratic ticket is being openly ottered to allcomers for votes forLlliott.

If Elliott should bo elected. Ma bee, whom they did not have tho nerve to renominate as trustee, because of his record in the tlice. has been promised tho position of school.trustee. It is said they have ottered to make Wheeler assistant marshal. "John Ilerig stands as well to-day in West Indianapolis as ho stood in tho Twenty-fifth ward when he was elected to Council against overpowering odds, and, with all the bluster about electing Elliott, and with all the trading bis friends aro trying to arranaro for his benefit, no will do exceedingly well if he does not find himself at toe tail of tho ticket when the votes are counted.

Expecting to profit by tho illegal rebates of taxes made by Taggart, through Dickson, hinn and Baker, to colored tax-payers. Mr. Elliott's friends are openly sajinjr, 'We can buy enough nig-ners and dead-beat Republicans to eleet Elliott If they think that West Indianapolis can be bought they will find that the colored men are honest and unpurchasable. and that the dead-beat element is already Democratic, and if it is bought it will be because it has to be paid to keep it in line. The intensity ot feeling against County Assessor Baker in West Indianapolis is so great that he is said to have expressed himself to the effect that he did not care a fig for the vote of West Indianapolis, as ho expects to be elected without the aid of his aeighbors.

'Taking the thing by and large, I feel lafe in predicting a victory for tne entire Republican ticket. I do not belieye they will come witnin forty votes of electing ho highest man on their ticket." This Week at the Theaters. The Liliputians will begin an engagement of three nights and a matinee at tbo Srand to-night, in their new spectacular iperetta "The Dwarfs Wedding' in which uearly a hundred performers appear. There is a large advance sale of seats for the various performances. The greatest of this season's farce-comedy successes, "Hois and lloss," with thoso clever comedians, Kecd and Collier, in tho leading roles, and a company of twenty f'erformera, will be seen at the Grand the atter part of this week, the advance sale beginning to-morrow.

This company is conceded to be the best present-ng farce-comedy, and the piece is full of fun. The Holden Comedy Company will begin a vceek'n engagement at the Park this afternoon in "ihe Convict's Daughter." which will be repeated at both performances to-morrow. Wednesday and Thursday "The InsidoTrack" will be given, Friday "Diamond Mystery" and Saturday Black Diamond." Dr. Wyeth's Invitation. A well-known eitiren said yesterday to a Journal reporter that the invitation which has been extended to Dr.

Wyetb to come hero was the act of Dr. Walker, of Evansville, the president of tho association, without consulting any of bis associates. The Doctor is the joungest man ever chosen president, and is ambitions to make a stir on the occasion of the annual meeting. As the charges of Wyeth reflect severely upon who have stood high in the pro-ession and in the estimating of the com-xnnnity who were connected with the oid-ical stafTof Camp Morton, the action of tho ambitions Kvansville man is the severest reflection upon members or past members of his own association. hat-racks at Win.

JU Elder's. VARIOUS CHURCH SERVICES Dr. Dorcmus Sc udder, a Chicago Divine, Preaches at Plymouth Church. Rer. Joseph Milburn's Sermon Services at the Firat Presbj terian Revival at Friends Church Lajinj: Corner-Stone.

Plymouth Church pnlpit yesterday was occupied, morning and evening, by Bey. Dr. Doremus Scudder, of Chicago. As the text tor his morning sermon he took tho eighteenth Terse of tho third chapter, II Corinthians: But we of that unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord are transformed Into tbe same Image from glory to glory, etc. The Doctor said the text was a gospel of gems inclosed in a setting of golden words, such words as I'aul, the master artist, knew so well how to employ.

The Bible portrays the Christian life nnder various forms, as a battle, as a foot-race, as a process of building, as a wrestler, as a river of water, as a vine and branches. Everyone of these similitudes is imbued with action. Wo must look upon truth with unprejudiced eye. There are two kinds of prejudice very common nowadays. There is tho prejudice which yon call the theological bias and the anti-theological bias.

As to the theological bias Paul says wo are not to wear any such veil no veil made by a Calvin, or a Luther, or an Ecumenical Counoil. or a Pope. Paul's request to ns is to take away this veil. The true Christian divests himself of prejudice and gazes upon the glory of God. What is the glory of Godf I think Paul would have answered, Yaukee like, what is tho glory of the sunt It is His self-revelation, the outshining of God's being upon all His creatures, borne will say, ah, then, nature must be the revelation of God' 6 glory.

Yes, it contains the truth and the outshining of God, but it is not tho special glory of which Paul was speaking. To him who has not been taught to see what is behind nature and shines through it there is no revelation of God's true glory. Is there some object in the universe upon which we may direct our attention as conveying to our minds this revelation of our heavenly Father! Paul's answer is that God gave us such a revelation in Jesus' nature, lie gave it in the touch of the lingers which restored the purity to the unclean ilesh of the leper, lie gavo it in Jesus as He stood in that boat and uttered that gentle word of command, "Peace, be still." which brought the winds and the waves into Hiscontrol: as lie burst the bonds of the grave, explain it as we will, there is a certain power of God which nothing can so adequately convey to our minds. In the life of Jesus there is a conception of the love of our Father which we cannot get in soienee or in the life of our fellow-men. We may have different ways of looking at the Bible, but it is not to be changed.

It is like the little hand-mirror to be used every morning in making the toilet. Tbe best scholarship to-day tells us that in this little mirror we have reflected the image of that life of Jesus of Nazareth and that is all we need as long as we have a clear picture of that marvelous life. No two people who look into a mirror behold an image in the same way. Each man carries his own angle of incidenco and reflection. Things he beholds I may not see, because I do not stand where be does and never can in his life.

Seven of ns entered that wonderful cathedral at Milan and each one saw and admired a different thing in it When we came out and proceeded in the cars on our journey did each one seek a different Compartment and travel alone! No! And yet that is what the Episcopal Church, and the Greek, and the Roman Catholic and the Congregational, and the other churches have done. Man does not become a saint in a day, but little by little. It took millions of ages to prepare this. Elanet for the residence of man. We have ad 1,600 years of Jesus, and yet we have our denominations and cliques after that wonderful prayer of tho Master.

Wo must be transformed. We cannot do it ourselves but we can be like Him if we only look at the true, puro manhood of Jesus and long to have those principles to animate our life. "Religion aud ToUtlcs." "Religion and Politics" was tho subject of Key. Joseph A. Milburn's sermon yesterday morning at the Second Presbyterian Church, his text being the 21st verse of the 22d chapter of Matthew: Render therefore unto Caofar the things that are Cesar's.

This, he said, is Christ's gospel on politics to his followers. Religion is not only tore-deem the individual but it is to redeem the mass. It is not only to redeem Peter, James and John, but also to redeem society; not only to redeem yon and me, but to redeem Indianapolis and to redeem, ultimately, by tho grace of God, this great and wonderful country in which we live. The church has no right to bo partisan. No man in the pulpit has a right to be a Democrat or a Republican.

He is not a politician. He is in a measure prophet. He has a message to deliver, and that message embodies a principle and not a mere party shibboleth or aim. Whilst party exists as a necessity there is no doubt that it has its dangers, and the church, of all institutions in this world, should stand superior to a hard, rigid aud unbending partisanship. It is here to remind the American citizen that there is something greater than a Republican or a Democrat.

That something is a principle, and that principle is the right, tbe true, the good. There is no more pitiful thing in all this world than a minister who injects into his sermons partisan dogma or a partisan spirit. That is the bane of the Southern church this day. It is intensely partisan. It is so partisan that it cannot read the Sermon on tho Mount aright.

It is so partisan that it has not yet learned Christ's law of love. It is so partisan that its eyes are blind to its duties to countless thousands of those who are living directly nnder its eyes. It is so partisan that it has not yet learned to look upon Aie negro as a man crowned by God, at least with the attributes of freedom. Christ rendered His duty and His fealty to but He never bent the knee to Caesar's henchmen. He obeyed principle, butl could not conceive the Son of Man giving his adhesion to mere party platform.

If Christianity has any message to deliver touching partisanship, it is to tell the partisan that his party loyalty should be subordinate to principle and that the fundamental runt should always be superior to mere political success. The church should enunciate the trutn that tbe Christian's first duty is to see right prevail, no matter what the cost Uur first duty is to God. our second duty to party, and when the two are in coniiict, no Christian can hesitate for a moment. When tho two are identical, then the more partisan we be the better it is for us. When they are opposed.

God pity us, we are traitors to our cause. The pulpit is not a place for dogmatic lectures on political economy, upon questions of finance, upon bimetallism or monometallism. upon protection or freo trade. Theso questions should be handled by mn who are conipeteut. Protection and free trade have perplexed the ablest minds on both sides of tbo sea.

Where these great scholars and tbiukera disagree it is not likely there is much light to be shed upon it from the pulpit. The profoundest and most intricate questions with which the human mind deals aro economic questions, und all these should be banished from the church. Let tbe Journal, aud the Sentinel, and the News fight theso things out. That is their business. We get enough economics six days in the week.

It in a blessed thing on tho seventh to get something else. Politics makes tho human atmosphere that you and 1 have to breathe. Hejond the home is this larger world, made by others than ourselves That larger world is the state that covers us not only with its taxe. with its statutes, its legislative edicts, but also with an atmosphere that is and unqualifiedly Tim state has as much to do as the home, not only in making a ntnn, but in umkinjr a certain kind of a man. England makes Englishmen, France makes Ftenchmeu nd America make Aiueriraus.

Therefore this cry about keeping religion out of politics is sheer claptrap. We want to get religion into politics. What tho city, the State and America need is conscience. The Second Presbyterian Church of Indianapolis and all theotherchurches of this city are losing the chance of doing a great and heroio work for the Master. There are wrongs going on about ns that might be stemmed, sins that might be bound.

There are certain debased sinners that are doing a fearful harm in our midst that might bo expelled and spewed forth beyond the boundaries of the city if there were only the sentiment in this community. But the trouble is that abomnable valetudinarian doctrine of letting things alone. Let ns believe in the kingdom of God. and let us work for it day by day, and so raako Indianapolis a city more habitable for the weak man. a city that is more kindly to the man that is infirm by the burden of his passion or by the fetters of his sin.

Let ns carry Christ into the streets and make thr re a sentiment that eball mean tho ultimate doom of every institution of vice, and in every nook and cranny whero the lusts linger that defile this fair and loving earth, a sentiment that shall mean the ultimate enthronement of faith, hope and charity and right. Itev. M. L. Haines's Sermon.

At the First Presbyterian Church, yesterday morning, Rev. M. L. Haines, D. took as his subject "The Vision of God," being the condition and reward of spiritual vision.

His text was the eighth verso of the fifth chapter of Matthew: "Blessed aro tho pure in heart, for they 6hall see God." 'Christ's first sermon, as Camming says," began the Doctor, 'dawns in benedictions, it breaks in blessings. His first miracle was at a marriage feast, sweetening nature's joy before He went forth to sympathize with nature's sorrow. His first sermon was not denouncing with wrath nor threatening with punishment, but it breaks into the multiplying and varying colors ot the most precious These beatitudes in glory set before ns Christ's idea of a blessed life. We can hardly fail to notice that Christ puts many persons on tbe list of those to be congratulated whom weshouldnot think of putting there. If we had preached a sermon wa should have said blessed aro tho rich, or blessed are those who have now a great name; blessed are they that have shining gifts and endowments of beauty or eloquence, or learning, or influence; blessed are they who aro in fortunate earthly circumstances.

"But Jesus said. 'Blessed are the poot in spirit and those who mourn; blessed are the meek and thoso who have to fight their way against much opposition. It is the disposition that is the test. Whatever be the circumstances of tho onter life it is tho heart that determines the true condltiou. In studying Christ's words in this beatitude we are brought first ot all face to face with this trnth, that He goes below all mere laws or rules for tbe regulation of the external conduct.

To gain the reward which He promises we must have something more than a correct outward life. How frequently in sermon, snd precept, and parable does Christ guard us against attaching too much importance to what we are outwardly to tho neglect of what Tfe are inwardly. "The reward of the Christian is vision, the communion of the soul with God, the insight into the fellowship of the finite spirit with Him. the infinite spirit, but all viilon depends upon faculty. We see what we have eyes to see.

Underlying and implied in this beatitude is this principle, which has many applications in human life. There must be a sense or taste of beauty in a man's soul before he can perceive the beauty there is in tho landscape. The same picture is stamped upon the retina of the eye of an aulmal and of an artist. The animal has the form of the object outlined just as clearly, but lacks the mind. He does not discern tbe beauty, the grace in form, the harmony in blended colors, the indescribable charm of loveliness that enwraps them all, and upon which the mind of the artist fea6ts.

Trno seeing is very much more than superficial beholding. "To really have the vision of the Father of Spirits we most have more than an intellectual faculty. I look at a diagram upon the blackboard, tho illustration of a problem in geometry. The physical eye descerns the physical objects, the board, the lines and curves. The mind sees more.

It sees the trnths that are illustrated by that diagram. But when we cometo look at tbo living God we find elements and qualities in Him Knich our mental powers by themselves do not grasp. There are elements of a moral being, characteristics we can only appreciate so far as wo have the same elements in our own natures. are men who look upon nature, and whose sight stops nature itself; who do not look tbroogh it as men look through tho lenses of a telescope to se the better that which is beyond. Now a man may see a great deal in nature and yet miss its highest meaning.

A man of science may be able to( explain many of its laws and to measure its forces, to analyze its elements and classify Its parts, ne may measure the distance of the stars. He may calculate the orbits of the planets, and this knowledge of tho framework and of the various parts of nature may be vastly helpful to man. These forces thus recognized may bo harnessed and used for the good of the nations. These chemicals and these minerals may bo of great service. But io all this the man of science may discern nothing of thebeiug of wisdom and power who stands behind all forces and phenomena, and by whom they were Drought and are kept in existence.

Others see not only the use of nature as applied to onr earthly lifo. but discern beyond, to its beauty. They bathe their souls in the loveliness of nature; they drink in eagerly all tho sweet inlluences of the opening spring. Nature can only be a rovelation of the divine to thoso who have something of a religious disposition. Unless a man has his spiritual vision cleansed he cannot seo the Divine Spirit over all and in all.

The sights and sounds of nature are the divine signals to us. God signals through the storms of His almighty power: through the glory of the constellations, as they sweep in ordered majesty in space. He signals the immutability of His laws. God signals to us through tbe waving flower, as well as the swinging planet; through the singing bird, as well as the blazing sun. Jesus taught us to stoop down and consider the lilies of the field, how they grow, and to find in their cups mirrors rejecting the image of God, our heavenly Father.

The psalmist found in the fire, the heat, the wind, the vapor in mountains and in fruitful trees, revelations of the being who fills all immensity with His presence." Iter. Willis at Friends' Church. Revival services are still in progress at Friends' Church, corner Delaware and St. Clair streets, and will continue every evening of this week and over next Sabbath. The meetings have resulted in many conversions and the strengthening of the church membership.

Mr. Willis took as his text Sabbath morn ing: And He gave some apostles, and some prophets, and eoiuo evangelists, and somo pastors aud teachers, lor tho perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying ot the body of Christ. He said the Christian church was organized nnder divine authority and direction. The greatest Christian institution is the church, and the divine economy has provided for officers of that church to its building up. God proposes to build up tbe church out of the unconverted, but He will convert them before He will add them to the church.

"I do uot." said he, "go much on this uniting with tho church without a Christian experience to nmte on. The scriptural door into the fold is by way of Christ, and this is the way of conversion. It would not do some of us who have been church members a good while any harm to join over again. "And the grand old prophetsI love to think of Isaiah, tho great evangelical prophet; of Jeremiah, the weeping prophet: of Kzekial and Daniel. It is true the scientists of the nineteenth century can ascertain something of the changes ot tho weather; they can predict something or the future, but only God can look down through the ages and foretell events which depend upon the volition of humanity.

Prophecy does not necessitate events, but events necessitate phrophecy. Evangelists were in order of itinerant preachers who traveled up and down the land, holding revival meetings. This is one of the scriptural offices. I delight to read of Philip, tho evangelist tbe mighty power he had in revival work and the number who believed; of Vox. Wesley.

Iv'nox. Whitrfiold. Moody and a Harrison. Would that God might raise up more Holy Ghost evangelists cnll-ini; the people up to the staudard of true Christian living. "Of all these (Vices.

I think the office of pastor is really the most important at tbo present time. A good pastor is a spiritnal guide to his llock. a spiritual overseer, looking after their interests and welfare, a spiritual instructor, instructing them in the truths of God. I am glad vou have a holy man of God as pastor of th'v Indianapolis Friends' Church. The othce of pastor Is different from that of tbe evangelist; fie stands before his people month after month.

He needs one of the very best libraries be can procure, and needs to grow in knowledge daily in order that he may instruct tbe people In things new and old. The evangelist dwells on two great topics the disease and the remedy." Laying the Corner-Stone. The congregation of Knesses Israel Church laid the corner-stone of their new church at Eddy and Merrill streets, yesterday afternoon, with enthusiastic exercises, before a largo gathering of people. Tbe event has for a long time been looked forward to as the beginning of the crowning feature of long and faithful labors. A little pavilion decorated and literally covered with American flags, testified to the religious devotion, pride and patriotism of the congregation.

In this pavilion tho exercises were conducted. Bernhard Frey, president of the congregation, took the rostrum at 3:20 and delivered a short address rejecting on the merits of tho event as a victory for the Jewish faith and the result of its diligence. A voteof thanks was given contractor Speilhulf for the corner-stone, which was a gift from him. Mayor Sullivan was introduced and received with cheers, and spoke at some length: "I am glad." said the Mayor, "of the opportunity to be with yon and take a small part in the exercises on this occasion. I come chiefly that you may understand Indianapolis appreciates the work done by this congregation and the results of such labor as will materially afreet the good of the city." The Mayor touched on the existing relations between the church and state in this country and complimented the wisdom and discretion of a government providing their existence.

It was observed by Mayor Sullivan that the neutrality of the government on the subject of different modes of worship did not mean indifference to the success of worshipers, and that the government recognized in them its best friends. Tbe establishment of a new church meant the contemporary collection of men and women from whom respect for anthority and law would issue, and through them its own perpetuation. The Mayor and the speakers who followed received a vote of thanks. Mr. Franklin made a few remarks, in which he expressed his regrets that all the Jews of the city did not combine and build ono church, over which the flag of the Union might wave.

Mr. Steinberg spoke in Hebrew to tbo congregation, and Leon Kahn. president of the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation, followed him with expressions' of gratification as an Israelite, to witness their ceremonies and success. The government of the United States was appreciated for its.provisions under which it was possible for the Jews to thrive without prejudices. The day should be one of thanksgiving, and the American nag should be highest over them all.

Contributions to tho amount of 8150 were received at the stand during the exercises. The privileges of carrying the stone, mortar, trowel, and assisting tbe Mayor to lay the stone were sold for good prices. The committee on arrangements were M. Markon, S. Freedman, M.

Tornheim and Bernhard Frey. Committee on decoration: H. Slutzkey. G. Joseph and Wol- lioetz.

On reception: Bernhard Frey, J. Wormer, S. Trotzkey and Ephraim Frey. The Story of Job. Tbe Rev.

Elijah P. Brown, editor of the Ram's Horn, preached morning and even ing sermons at the Central-avenue Methodist Church yesterday to large congregations. The morning sermon was upon the subject of Job, and the text was tbe first verse of the first chapter of the hook of Jdb: There was a man in the land of TJz, whoso nsme was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God and eschewed eviL The preaoher reviewed the familiar story of the sufferings and trials of the "patient man," Jo illustrate tbe idea that God'e man never fails. God pronounced him perfect, and when tested he was not found wanting. Every godly lifo is full of glorious meaning from where He sees.

The following is an abstract of the sermon: Speaking of the text he began: "This verse is the grandest sentence there is in tbe word of God applied to a mortal man. The only declaration which surpasses it is that addressed to Christ himself as He came out of tho water after His baptism, when the heavens were opened and the Holy Spirit, descending in the form of a dove, lighted upon bis head, just as a voice from heaven exclaimed: 'This is raj beloved Son, in whom 1 am well 'And that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God and eschewed evil. What a certificate of character that is. I would rather have mr name stand alongside of Job's in that declaration than to have it said that 1 was the wisest, or the richest, or the most gifted man in all the earth. To have God say that 1 was pure gold, and above injury by any firo into which I could be cast, would be the highest desire my soul could have.

Some people do not believe that perfection in this life is possible, but the Holy Ghost here tells us that it was attained before Abraham and Lot went into Canaan. That it was an actual reality before Joseph was sold into Egypt, and that it had been realized before Moses and David and before a single page of the Bible had been written, for.it is admitted among all scholars, both saint and sinner, that tbe book of Job is the oldest of all the sacred writings, aud that ages before Christ had come, and uttered, and died a man bad lived to whom God could testify that he was not only perfect but upright. Here was a man witn credentials from God. "Job was not only perfect in his loyalty to God, but he also behaved the way he believed. Ho was not a religiously bow-legged man, or a spiritually lopsided man, but he was an upright man.

He didn't lean over toward the devil's country in his walk toward heaven, but he kept his head straight up and his eyes fixed on the throne. Job got started right, and he kept right He didn't look back to see how straight he was plowing, but he kept tbe oxen going, and never took his eye off the stakes ahead, and by doing so the furrow he made was so straight that it pleased bis Master. Job's prosperity didn't make him religious, bnt he was religious in spite of his prosperity. Tho man who can be rich in both worlds at the same time is a man whom God loves and angels admire. The hottest fiery furnace into which a child of God can be cast is that of worldly prosperity.

The man whose trust is in God cannot be made poor. All things work together for hit good, and the harder the devil works to rob him tho richer he becomes. Job knew a thousand times more about God after his trial than ho did before, and his joy was infinitely greater." A MEMORIAL CHCECH. Fourth Fresbyterian Conurbation Moves Into a New Place of Worship. Tbe congregation of the Fourth Presbyterian Church assembled for the first time, yesterday, in their temporary place of worship on North Delaware street, near Ninth street.

The church which it has been occupying for so many years on Pratt street has been sold, and the ono tbe congregation nowjwill nse is a little frame bnildingthat was built originally for a mission chapel by the Second Presbyterian Church, years uko, but which has of late rrored to entirely too small.
