What They Think OuuhttoBe Done for

and a Condition of Things That Demands
Kcform 3Irs. Franklin's Statement.
The Association of Matrons' Orphans' Homes,
of Indiana, met at the parlors of tbe Grand
Hotel yeterday morning. There wero present
Mrs. Wiihard", of Indianapolis; Miss Mattie
Hartley, of Spiceland; Mr. Robertson, of An
derson; Mrs. F;lon, of Huntington; Mrs. Ellis,
of Westneld; Mrs. Franklin and Mrs. Jones, of
Bedford, and Miss Aiberteon, of Indiananulis.
Miss Mattie Ellin, tho secretary, road tbe annual
reDort, ehowing that tbero are twenty-three or
phans' homes in tbe State, two of which are in
Marion county, and that the citizens of a cum
ber of other counties are agitating tbe subject,
and that it Is probable that the number will
ta lamely increased. Letters were re
ceived and read from a number of
the matrons who wero unable to bt present
At tbe afternoon session a paper was read by
Mrs. Bennam, of Wabanh. She recommended in
cases where the parents are depraved and unfit
to associate with their children & complete sep
aration, and in extreme cases would not allow
the parrenta to even visit the children. Sho
thoucht it would be advisable in many canes to
change the names of tbe children and givn them
a completely new start In life. Mrs. Ellis op
posed the changing of names unless it were dene
by legal means, bnt several of the ladies said
that while they had neter considered the ques
tion they thought that it would be a good idea,
especial in some cases they bad at their re
spective homes, where the children bad come cf
parents so low and deprated that the family
name would be a reproach to them all their
lires.
Mi-8 JJadley, matron of the Spicelcnd home,
reti s p&per on the conduct of homes. Tfiey
should be cleanly and orderly, she said, and
truthfulness and obedieoeo should bo enforced.
A boy of six or seven who ecmes to the home
dirty, ragged, hungry and foil of evil habits is
generally a liar, profane, and ru!;ar. 'When he
is taken aod washed and a suit of clean
clothes put on him tbe chance can be noticed in
hint at once. A spark of a lf -respect begins to
glow in his bosom and a feeling of gratitude
takes possession of him, aud in the most cases
the boy from that time 90 desires to do what is
lieht, but he does not know what is right and
what is wrong.
Upon the discussion cf this question, one of
the matrons said: "All children are al.ke until
they are twelve years of age. 1 would not gire
the snap of my fincer for the difference. It is as
natural for children to lis and ileal ai it is for
them to eat. There is no snch thing as a natural
conscience in them. Conscience is something
that baa to be culti vated by precept and exam-
ple, and in doing so I wou!d not talk too ranch
tbeoloey to them. Don't puzzle their brains
with questions and theories that grown-up peo
ple cannot understand. Let them tnink for
themselves. There is no knowing the outcome
of a boy. I know one boy woo cam- of the poor
est, the most ienorant and deeraied family I
ever knew. He started to school from the paor
nouse. In a short time he developed a preafc
ability for mathematics. He went ahead
of his class and the higher classes. Some gentle
men heard of bim and determined be should
have a chance. TLy found upon investigation
that he was a descendant of a famous mathema
tician, and that the mathematical genias had
skipped several generations and crorred out ia
him. He wl:l graduate as a civil engineer
shortly and you will hear of Lim some time.
Mrs. "Wis hand, of Indianapolis, read a paper
upon the qualifications matrons should possess.
They should be kiod. firm, orderly, she said,
and sho aid hare an affection fr their children.
They should not pnniah children very severely
and never while in anger. Her pat-er provoited a
discussion uoon the question of corporal pnnfsh-
meor. and tbe matrons all asred that a switch
would very often reach a tcy'e conscience where
everything else bad failed; but tbst very little
pomshrcent of the kind is necessary, was the
trevailinr opinion of tbe speaker; and if a boy
is absolutely incorrigible be must not be all j wed
to fuin the other children, hut oucht to be sent
to the tat heme for burs of that kind.
After elecrinr Mr. Wiihard preident and MiS3
Mattie Ellis secretary, tbe association ad
journed. '.Yneo the meeting was over and all buiiess
details on; of tbe way. Mrs. Franklin Ba d to a
Journal reporter. 'Children are a matter of
profit to keepers, and whhoat them tby could
not affori to take charge of poor-houecs. The
business tbns degenerates into laby-farmiur
The county infir3arv of one county i visited is
literally a poor-farm. in every eea of the word.
There are ICO acres of the most sterile land
in the county. There are no dranebfc-horses,
no cows, no sheep, no beeres nor bogs, nor
fields of elcvc-r or wheat; no poultry, in short,
nothing or aaythinr. The pauper buildmes are
not as gcod as many stables .1 uoticed several
doorways borded, end looking as it they might
have been entrances into stalls. A long bail
runs between two rows of wards. Men are on
one side and a fw insane women on the other.
There is no ventilation, only from each end of
the hail, and the transoms over the doors only
admit the foul air from tbe other side. In this
hall full of beds lying-in women are eonfined.
Common decency suggest! that these women
ought to hard a private apartment The super
intendent of the place fays, 'If the children are
remo? ed I vrill not keep the poor-farm, for in
them is all tie profit.' The argument runs this
way: The poor-boue keeper is al
lowed $2 rer week for each panper.
If a woman ha a baby but a week old it is the
same mother and child yield him $4 per week.
The mother nourishes the child and cares for it
It is no expense to the keeper, and consequently
clear profit To ose bis own words, 'The filthy
and crazy ones tear their clothing and are
mighty big eaters. Onu woman, by aetnal
count, eata ten biscuits.' The keeper and bis
wife are good to the paupers, and if he could
work them be would realize something for their
Keeping and not cave to depend upon baby
farming for bis income. There are sven of
these children and the keeper gets $14 pr week
for their keep, and $728 per annum for them all.
The sanitary condition is as cood as the keeper
and his wife can make it He is an old soldier,
and deserves better of bis country than that he
should depend upon the precarious income de
rived from baby-farming."
In speaking of a model orphans' home, Mrs.
Franklin said with regard to the Hamilton
county home at Westfirld: "It was established
in 1831 and Mrs. Ellis appointed matron. She
rented a frame bouse with seven rooms and f-ur
acres of ground. She started with fourteen
children, furnishing everythinc herself. There
base been 157 enrolled daring the time she has
b-ea in charge. Five rooms have been added
to tbe noose and a cellar and cistern. After
much persuasion, the commissioners allowed
br one cow and she now has five and has raised
two beeves. She fattened nine fine hope lat
year and her meat-bonse is f ull of nicely cured
meat and big, well-filled lard eana. Everything
was clean and n-at as a pin. There were
twenty-seven popils from eight to twelve years
of age, all well clothed and well fed. The
boys were cultivating two acres of vegetables
which looked. well and etch child,
however young. is expected to do
seme work. Tbe food is varied and wholesome.
Mrs. Ellis makes little parties fol tbe children,
and invites them to eat with her. On these oc
casions thoy put on their Sundav clothes, and
she treats them as honored visitors. I have
seen more elaborate homes, bat I have seen
rone which were more trulr horos for the chil
dren. Mrs. Ellis is tbe only matron the borne
ha ever had, and to the children she seems like
their mother. One man remarked that sh is
so good to the children that it is difficult to find
places to which they would willingly co. Tney
wanted to go back to her. Of all tbe hemes 1
have seen I think that this one is the most ef
fective. The business men there told Mrs. Ellis
last winter that if she was not receiving suffi
cient support they would subscribe so much per
we-k to the home. How much better is this
tfcan mixing the little children with tho most
degraded of the earth in poor-housesr
The School Commissioners!
Tbe session of the School Commissioners, last
night, was unusually brief and uneventful. It
was nearly 9 o'clock before a quorum was pres
ent, and then the only members there were

WELCOME TO PASTOR AND ELDER.
The Reception Given by the Members of Meridian-Street
31. E. Conzrecation.

gation, in welcoming the new pastor, Rev. H. J.

and Mr. Wm. Bosson gave the introductory ad
dress and welcome to Dr.' Cleveland and the

gentlemen responded in a few well-chnsen re
marks, the latter welcoming Dr. Cleveland to
bis conference. A letter of regret was read
from the official hoard of the Fifth-avenne
Methodist Church, ov Philadelphia, which was
Dr. Cleveland's pastor ate before coming here.
The letter contained the following resolutions:
Whereas, Our ecclesiastical authorities have de
creed the removal of our pator. Rev. Dr. Cleveland,
to a distant pastoral chsi-e, .expecting as to acqniece
in their action on tho ground i loyalty to Methodist
polity, and tf broad and genert views of the uuity
of our national Methodism, tees efore.
Retired, That although we o concur In tbe re
moval, we do it with great reluctance and sincere re
gret, considering ourselves espvilJ'y unfortunate in
fcing deprived of Ir. Cleveland' eloquent, instruct
ive and inspirit,? pulpit effort, to vhich we would
gladly have listened till the end of the recently length
ened pastoral term.
Resolved, That the invaluable instruction wh;eh
our pastor's special aptitude for the work has enabled
him to give to our Bible elasj hie interest in our Ly
ceum exercises, and his signal success in ereanizing
and conducting our flourishing Chautauqua Circle,
are richlr deserving of both honorable mention and
grateful rem ernbraneo.
fcesolvod. That tie health and happiness of Dr.
Cleveland and his family, the eminent sueevss of his
ministry and our final reunion with him in heaven are,
and shell continue to be, objects of our earnest desire.

LOOK AT IT
The length of life for a watch depends largely upon
the number of its jewels. The range of prices for
American watches runs from $5 to $500. the costliest
being a split second minute register timing wat;h.
I a th United States about 3.500 watches are manu
factured every day. The Waltham factory tires cut
1,500 per day, and the Elgin factory between 1,200
and l,300s There are a few other watch factories in
the West, but their output comparatively small,
and the two here spoken of are the biggest in the
world. Newspaper item.
We are selling American Watches now cheaper than
they were ever before offered in this market
