MONDAY, .1VXE 11, 1S94.

Tin: sewer question will come up for discussion before the City Council tonifrhl. Let it result in action.

IT is quite evident that good citizens who have the misfortune to be Democrats are voting- with the Republicans tiiis rear.

Hu.i. was the only Democratic Senator who voted against the sugar schedule which is designed to put a fortune into the treasury of the sugar trust at the eNpense of the people.

Coi.. RICHA.HII W. THOMPSON' was ." years old last Saturday. The day was celebrated in a most appropriate manner by the citizens of Terre Haute without regard to party. Among the speakers present wasex-l'resident Harrison.

OHIO followed the pace set bv Indiana in favor of the proposition to enforce a double standard and the use of silver as money by discriminating legislation against nations which do not promptly subscribe to the principles of bimetalism. ,, T'hu policy is right and will win.

Till-: New York Trillion: says that the stream of Democratic babble about the taritl' continues like the ooze of a mud volcano bubbling and sluttishly simmering and of it no end save when it is gulfed at last in the Serbouian bog. and left to forgetfulness with the rest of the torpid and blighting exudations of the party now in power, but soon to step down and out. confronted by a condition and not a mere theory that they are no longer wanted.

DKMOCUATS throughout the county are greatly discouraged. The AValnut township Democrats particularly are not in a happy frame of mind. At their convention last Saturday at New Ross it was with great diffiulty that a man could be found to make the race for Trustee for the reason as stated by James G. Johnson that there is no hope of election, because "traitors arcdaily leaving our ranks." Jeems evidently is able to read the handwriting on the wall.

Is the eyes of the livvicir, it is outrageous that Judge Long, of Michigan, should draw $70 a month pension, but it is all right that Col.lSlack. of Illinois, should draw S100 a month. Judge Long is a Republican while Col. lilack is a Democrat, which probably accounts for the milk in the cocoanut. Judge Long requires a constant attendant to dress his wounds which are in an uninterrupted state of suppuration. while Col. lilack requires no attendant. Judge Long is filling an otlice with S3,000 a year salary, while Col. lilack holds an olllce worth S5.000 a year. It is doubtful if the editor of the /.YniVir with his immense income would bo willing to take upon himself the sufferings of either Judge Long or Col, lilack fur the pension that either receives, and its attempt to justify the action of lluke Smith 'in his villainous attack on the I-nion pensioner will not meet the approval of even all tlie 1 'emoerats. The liaricir is opening ihc eyes of a good many Democratic soldiers.

OTIIK barbed wire manufacturers have filed a protest with the Senate Finance Committee against placing their product on the free list. They show to the committee that with all the raw material which they use. such as coal, ore and steel billets on the dutiable list it will be impossible to continue in the business and they will be compelled to close their establishments. There are twenty-five barbed wire factories in the United States, sixteen of which are in Missouri and Illinois. The number of men employed in those two States is over four thousand, and. if the present schedule stands, every one of these will be thrown out of employment.

This is an industry in which Crawfordsville has a direct interest. The closing of the Illinois and Missouri factories means the closing of the Indiana factories. Are the voters of Crawfordsville and Montgomery couuty prepared to vote in favor of wreck ing one of our leading industries'.' Are they prepared to vote to throw nearly a hundred men outof work here in our midst that the Democrats may pass their bill of bargain and sale'.' We mistake the temper of our working people if they will so vote.

CHINESE DELICACIES.

Dishes In Which tho Figtailod Celestials Bevel.

Ourlom Article* of Diet for Which There la No Xmne to EnKllih^IMulns In Mongolian lljuthery.

Every day in New York you can see a score of pigtailed gentlemen in the neighborhood of Mott street each carrying huge brown paper bag. If you could open these mysterious packages you would find desiccated shrimps and prawns, picked Amoy cabbage, delicate little tubers known as "ma-tai" bitter cucumbers, dried devil fish, Awabi clams from Japan, smoked oysters, preserved sharks' fins, pots

sweet

meats, funny looking sausages and lots of dainties for which, according to the Herald, there is no name in English. A poor laundryman will spend a quarter or a third of his income upon these luxuries, and will devote a half day of his precious time to cooking them in approved Mongolian style. The table is a queer work of art. The china and porcelain are superb, so beautiful that in this land of collectors they would be placed in cabinets. There are no knives or forks. The Celestial mind regards cutting and carving a labor unworthy of a guest, and relegates it to a cook. In lieu of forks are chopsticks —long, slender bars of ivory tipped with silver or gold. The spoons are. films of porcelain the wine glasses, cups like those in children's doll houses. Your plate is a saucer and your napkin a silk towel held by a servant. The table is handsome nevertheless. It is nearly covered with dainty plates containing liors d'couvres piled up in slender pyramids. One pile consists of peeled bananas, cut into little drums another of pineapple, carved into tiny bars, like miniatures of laundry soap a third of crystallized dwarf oranges, moistened in honey a fourth of fine onion sprouts and a fifth of preserved eggs, dark green and suggesting cucumbers. Other plates contain sliced sausage, pickled cocks' combs, hard boiled pigeons' eggs, sweet pickled shredded ginger, sliced water chestnuts, dried fish segments, desiccated prawns, smoked fish roe, and a score of other equally incongruous dainties.

You help yourself to any of these, both before and during the banquet. In the meantime the waiter or the '•sing-song girl" has filled your teacup with fragrant Oolong and your winecup with boiling wine. From this point neither cup is permitted to remain empty nor grow old. If it stands longer than tho time allotted by Mongolian etiquette it is removed and replaced by a hot one. After a few minutes of nibbling and sipping the courses begin to arrive and continue to arrive as long as there is a soul at tha board. Soups and steps, omelettes and entrees, roasts and boiled, ragouts and fricassees, croquettes and vol au vents, sweet dishes and sour follow one another without apparent rhyme or reason. At the end of every half hour you take a recess of from five to fifteen minutes. Everybody lights a fresh olgarette or puffs a water pipe. A few retir* to one of the bunks and smoke a pipe of opium. The "singsong" girls perform a brief concert, vocal and instrumental, and again the meal proceeds. It is a poor dinner that has loss than twenty courses. Some have forty and fifty, and a fewpass the hundred mark. You eat what you please and as much as you please. Scarcely any dish is simple some contain twenty ingredients. The average banquet uses pork, fresh, salt and smoked pigs' brain, liver and kidney, chicken, duck, pigeon, quail and goose fish, fresh, dried salt and smoked eggs of at least four kinds, rice, pastry, beans, peas, cabbage, millet, lentils, onions, garlic, leek, cucumber, squash, melon, gourd, potatoes, white and sweet yam, ma-tai, bean, sprouts, spinach, turnip, parsnip, carrot, devil fish, dragon fish, fish roe, clams, oysters, crabs, sea weed, mushroom and tree mushrooms, bird's nests, shark's nests, shark's fins, chilliss, orange peel, ginger, cocoanut, macaroni and heaven knows what not.

THEIR FIRST DISAGREEMENT.

llow a llrlilal Couple Fell Out Over Their Breakfast Menu. There was a newly married couple at one of the down-town, hotels the other day, says the Washington Post, and they were as dead in love with each other and as anxious to let nobody else find it out as such people usually are. JJe was all attention, and the waiter noticed when they came to dinner, which was the first meal served after they reached the hostelry, that he ordered everything she did. She wanted her beef well done, and so did he. She ordered a glass of milk and rye bread, and he immediately did likewise. When she took a sip of the fluid he followed suit with gallant alacrity, and a man with half an eye could have seen that he was drinking her health every time. When they were through and had left the room the waiter remarked to the star boarder under his care that "Dey wuzn' no useter gib sech fokes two sets er deeshes. Dey dess et de same stuff, au' orter had wun plate betwix um." The star boarder happened to be at breakfast synchronously with the devoted twain next morning. They ordered everything alike until it came to eggs. "Ilow huzyer want yeraigs?" queried the waiter. "Soft boiled," replied the sylphlike bride.

The groom struggled manfully with himself for a moment or two, and theii grew red to the roots of his hair. "Gimme mine fried on both sides," lie said with a great effort.

A big pair of blue eye* looked al him reproachfully across the table, while he discovered something interesting in the butter dish. Then she sighed. It was their first difference, and she let him know that she resented !t.

The Human Electrical Forces!

How They Control the Organs of the Body.

The electrical force of the human body, the nerve fluid ma bo termed, an especially attractive department ot science, as It exerts so marked an Influence on the health of the organs of the body. Norve force la produced oy tho brain and conveyed by nutans of the nerves to the various organs ot the body, thus supplying the latter.wlth ilia vitality necessary to Insure their health. Tho pneumogastric nerve, as shown here, may be said to be thb most Important of tho entire nerve system, as it supplies tho heart, lungs, stomach, bowels, etc., with the nerve force necessary to keep them active and healthy. As will be seen by tho cut tho long nerve descending from the base ot the brain and terminating In the bowels Istbepneumogastrlc, while the numerous little branches supply the heart, lungs and stomach with necessary vitality. When the Drain becomes in any way disordered by Irritability or exhaustion, the nerve force which It supplies Is lessenod, and the organs receiving the diminished sapply are consequently weakened.

xiuently Physicians generally fall to recognlio. the Importance of this fact, but treat tho organ Itself Instead of the cause of I he trouble Tho noted specialist, Franklin Miles. M, D., LL. B„ has given the greater part of fats life to tho study of ihU subject, and the urini-ipal discoveries concerning ft are due to his efforts.

Alpha and Omega

These two words perfectly describe the events that will take place this week in the lives ot twenty-one of our rising generation. This week twenty-one young ladies and gentlemen bid adieu to school life and push out into the cold and merciless world to earn their own living Let us hope that their fondest expectations may be realizeo and more. That they may be model young men and women, ornaments to society and shining lights each in their respective vocations. From earlier times than the date of the Roman Empire it has been customary to have ceremonies of pomp and splendor to usher new warriors into the battle of lite. So it will be this week We will each try to out-do the other in attendance on the entertainments given honoring

The Class of '94.

This is as it should be. Let us give them the freedom of the city. Let us give them such god speed that it will encourage them for many days to come.

Now! A Word

.... In regard to graduating presents. We have many items, useful and orna

mental that would make acceptable gifts. Let us suggest.

Purses, Belts, Ties, Scarfs, Cups, Saucers, Photo Frames, Cuff Buttons Hair Ornaments, Gloves, Hitts,

Fans, Parasols, Umbrellas, Handkerchiefs,IceWool Shawls, Silk and Lisle Hose, etc., etc.

Summer Suggestions.

No better store news could be told than that all stated heretofore is true to-day. And that is just what we say, plus a good deal more that is to jour interest to listen to. We can furnish your home with draperies more artistically and economically than any house in the city, because we carry a larger and better assortment. Give us the opportunity to prove this assertion. We don't want to worry you with oft repeated facts about our wash goods but we mention it in a kindly way. If you are not acquainted with us in this department we hope you will get acquainted before }ou buy anything in that line.
