Capt. Wm. M. Cocke, jr., complained
that in widening Depot street the em
bankmeat was left perpendicular, which
would cause a great deal of annoyance
by constantly crumbling onto the side
walk. On motion of Mr. Hunt the con
tractors were instructed to sloe the
embankment as much as may be neces
sary.
A street committee front the advisory
board was appointed, composed ot

Mr. Cumrmngs called the hoards at
tention to what wasaclcrical error in the

thought the matter should be left to the

Bishop I. W. Joyce, who is to preach
on Sunday morning at the re-opening of
the First M. E. church, is a practical
sample of a self-made man. He is of
Irish ancestry and was born in Hamp
ton county, Ohio. When about thirteen
years of age his parents removed to Tip
pecanoe county, lud. He was converted
at sixteen. In 1859 he was admitted
into the Northwest Indiana conference.
He always tound room at the top. An
indefatigable student and worker, he
commanded the best places in the con
ference. For lour years he served as
presiding elder. In 1880 he represented
his conference in general conference. In
1886 he went as fraternal delegate to
the general conlerence of the Methodist
church in Canada.
In the autumn of 1880 he was trans
ferred to the Cincinnati conference and
stationed in St. Paul's Methodist Epis
copal church in Cincinnati. From there
he went to Trinity in the same city, serv
ing lull terms in each, and then was an-
nointed back again to St. Paul s.
While serving his second year of
his second term, he was elected
to the Knisconnl office at the gen
eral conference of 1888, held in New
York. As a bishop he has had marked
success. His genial, sympathetic man-
er wins all with whom he comes in con-
tact. He is a deeply read, thorough
scholar, a profound preacher and pulpit
orntor and a man of rare culture.
Dr. W. L. Davidson, who is to preach
on Sundnv nmht, is agent lor the bun.'
dnv school union and tract society of
the Methodist Episcopal church. He is
not unknown to many of The Citzien
readers, who have heard him sing, preach
and lecture. On Monday night he will
give a lecture in the auditorium of the
church on A tramp tlirougn Switzer
land." All who can possibly do so
should make it a point to hear both
these distinguished gentlemen.

The Crime Was that of Child
Murder.
Mastfiei.d, Mo., Feb. 27. A secret
meeting night before last decided to
lynch Dick Cullen, guilty of child murder,
and last night at ten o'clock 150 deter-
mided men were halted on the west side
of the square. A rope was produced,
the men quickly marching to the jail
where the sheriff was overpowered. The
mob then gat their mas marched him
to the square and asked him if he and
his mother were guilty. His answer
was: "Pull your rope."
He was at once drawn up over a limb
nine feet high and the command was
given to "pull away boys." In a few
minutes Cullen was dead.
Cullen'scrime was a heinous one. Four
vears ago a baby ten days old was found
at bis step-father's door. Young Cullen
thought of late that it was meant for an
heir bv adoption. Last Monday night
he tied a car link to the neck of the child
and threw it into an unused well. His
guilt was certain, His mother was ar
