••-•The McKeen Cadets Bund will give a grand ball this evening at Turner Hall. The admission will be free, and only persons who have received invitations will be admitted. The band will have 14 instrument*. The object is not to make money but to show tln« public, especially those who dance, what kind of music they are capable of producing. Let every one who has an invitation go to hear them.

•-•The new Terre Haute Directory of C. O. Ebel & Co. is being hurried to completion as rapidly as possible by Moore & Langen, the printers. Names inN are being put in type to-day. The Directory will contain at leant 14.000 names, perhaps more. There are 2,000 beginning with S, 200 Smiths. The Johnsons number 72 Jaeksons 40 Joneses 58. Messrs M. & L. are doing an excellent job of printing on the book.

»-t»H. W. Hibbard. general freight agent of the Vandftlia roao, who is stopping at the Bates House, was so ill yesterday as to need A physician.

The above appears in the Indianapolis Journal of yesterday. On inquiry, the DAILY NEWS learns that Mr II. has for some time been complaining, particularly of pains in the head. He recently went to Texas for rest and relief, but did not return materially benefited. His many friends in this city nnd elsewhere will regret to hear of his illness, and it is to be hoped it will not be serious.

•-•The Express of yesterday says: "One of the handsomest set stages that has ever been seen here since the opera house lias been built, was that witnessed by the audience at the Riley lecture last evening. It was done by the two regular stage carpenters, Messrs Samuel Stewart and Ren. Early, who recently succeeded Dan Dean. They understand the business thoroughly." It «*».« handsome, a handsomer set than than that on the memorable appearance of Christine Nllsson, so highly complimented by the distinguished songstress.

•-•The reorganisation of the Mont Rose Sunday School yesterday, resulted in the election of the following officers: Superintendent— Mr Shinkle Assistant Superintendent—E. Qobin Secretary and Treasurer—Miss Cash Librarian—Geo. Hughes Chorister—Joe Davis Assistant Chorister —E. Qobiu Organist—Miss Black Assistant Organist—E. (Jobin.

The revival is still progressing at the Mont Rose. Church, and the Temperance Club has necessarily postponed their meetings while it continues, but expect to soon start up with renewed energy and strength from their short rest bsbjju. .jL.jj.ujmm. mii-i •-•Mr J. W. Riley will visit Terre Haute to-night, where he will delight the people with his elegant entertainment. If Terre Haute does not give him a big house it deserves to lose its classic distinction and rated as a second class pawpaw town.— Indianapoti* Herald, Saturday.

Guess our city will have to be so rated. The house that greeted Mr Riley was very «tmall, the DAILY NEWS regrets to say. Those who were there enjoyed the best entertainment of the kind that has ever been presented in this city. The words .^jf praise awarded Mr Riley by the press elsewhere arc deservedly merwill visit this city again, juid that the opera

Mr Riley's entertainment on Saturday evening was in point of merit, a success the number of the audience wonld financially be called a failure—but in the proper time for applause, a success- Mr. Riley with our Terre Haute audience is a stranger in years he is young, and as the humorous poetic writer, shows many signs of a coming man. About 100 assembled to hear him, many of whom have been before the public here as amateurs in the line of recitation, All were amused all applauded, and all commended the entertainment. Mr Riley's comparison between the Scotch dialect, immortalized by Burns, and the Hoosier dialect, to be immortalized by some modern compeer, we think rather premature. We would like to see the modern Burns first, but as a prophet is always known and appreciated except in his own coun try, we refrain from further comment on this point. 3!r Riley's idea of poetry borders on granduer, if not grand. We know not if what he told us in that respect was original, but if so. he is not only a poet but a scholarly one. The poems were all original and all excellent. Mr Riley in Crawfordsville, as we are informed, first recited to a baker's dozen in the audience. The people invited him back' again, and a crowded house was his reward. All who heard him Saturday night wHl be glad to hear him again.

MRS LAURA

DATNTY.

This lady, of whom Wendell Phillips writes: "Mrs Dainty came to Boston, last Winter, almost unknown she took us by surprise, captured us by her charming, artless art, and went away a friend whom we delight to honor." will give an entertainment consisting of humorous and character readings, at Dowling Hall, Monday evening, March 8.

Central Republican Club.

At the meeting of the Central Republican Club, at headquarters, Saturday niglit, the report of the Committee on Constitution was adopted. It provides:

This organization shall be known as the Vigo County Central Republican Club. The officers shall consist of a President, one Vice President from each ward, and one from the township of Harrison a Secretary and Assistant Secretary a Treasurer, and an Executive Committee of five members. Additional Vice Presidents mav be elected if thought desirable. [The duties of the officers are prescribed, which are such as the title of their office would indicate.]

The regular meetings of the Club, unless otherwise ordered, shnll be at Republican Headquarters every Saturday evening, commencing at 8 o'clock.,

Any person of the age of 18 years and upwards, who desires the success of Republican principles and intends in good faith to support the candidates of the Republican party in the elections of 1880, may become a member of the Club by signing his name on the record kept for that purpose.

Any number of members exceeding 14 who shall attend at any regular or called meeting of the Club, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

The following gentlemen were eleeted members of the Execvtjve Committee: First Ward—Samuel Mc&eoru

Second—L. A. Burnett. Third—Simon Daniels. Fourth—James Bishop. Fifth—Jackson Stepp. Sixth—Benjamin Wilhelm. Harrison Township—John L. Brown.

The following comes from our old partner, W. T. Logan, in the Hillsboro, (Ohio) Gazette, during the years 1857-8-9, but now of the firm of Wisner & Logan, of the Martin8burg, (W. Va.) Independent. Thanks, "old man,"

We have received the Initial numbers of the Terre Haute (Ind.) DAILY NEWS, published bv Seaman, Lewis & Co., under the editorial management of our old friend and former partner, Frank Seaman. -The NEWS is a neat, sprightly and newsy sheet, and will readily commend itself to the people of the section in which It is published. Frank Seaman is one of the test practical printers in the West, and added to this his knowledge and large experience as a journalist, and the NEWS is certainly manned with sufficient ability to make ft a success. We wish it a long life and prosperi ty.

Hon K. W. ThoiujMion lor Coventor. Indianapolis Journal, March 1. Many of the ccfunty Republican papers, and some of the daily papers in the State, have expressed a preference for the candidacy of Secretary Thompson in the coming contest. The Journal believes that Secretary Thompson is one of the men who could carry the State next Fall If he should be tire Republican nominee for Governor. If elected, no State would have a better Governor than Indiana. The best possible capital for a candidate before the people of Indiana in the coming contest is possessed, in very full measure, by Secretary Thompson. He is honest, he is capable. He has demonstrated this in every position he has ever held. He has just recently returned to the treasury more than one million of dollars of the appropriation made by a Democratic Congress to run the Navv Department for the last fiscal year. This act alone should, and we believe will, secure his election should he be nominated. He is a man of whom the people of Indiana should be proud, and ire believe he will be a tower of strength at the head of the Republican ticket in the coming campaign. While Secretary Thompson is not likely to engage in any active effort or canvass to secure the nomination, yet it is believ ed be would accept the nomination If tendered him.

When the Kmmi Abbott troupe was here some ago, a well known Irishman about town noticed the wagons carry the immense trunks to the opera house. Spying the word "Abbott" in big white letters on the baggage, he was struct with an idea. Said he: "Be jabbers and will yer stag the luggage of the nagnr exodus billed to Misthur Abbott, the trustee."

ABOUT AIVRBT|KI«.

Imperially AdvcrtiMtafr in the Daily New*. The DAILY NEWS solicits advertisements from the merchants and business men, mechanics and professionals, of Terre Haute. It does not propose, however, that its solicitors shall buzz around their ears hour by hour with the pertinacity of a modern book agent, until their solicitations are rewarded. The publishers of this paper propose to make it worthy of a large subscription list, and that it will receive such a subscription they do not for a moment doubt. It is an established fact that newspaper advertising is the most valuable medium by which an individual can place his goods or wares, or his occupation before the public and the value is In proportion to the number who will likely see the advertisement. As to the value of an advertisement in the DAILY NEWS, we will say that we print to-day 1,000 copies, and sh*ll print no less to-morrow, or any succeeding day. We do not start with this number of subscribers, we admit, but e»ch copy printed will be placed, like Oakes Ames' moijey was a few years ago, where it will do the most good. The subscription list will exceed this number before the expiration of the month. f'

The DAILY NEWS solicits advertisements, and rates will be found elsewhere. It will be seen that these rates are computed by the line, and for advertisements occupying short length of space, with daily changes, If the advertiser sees fit to make them. This is the kind of advertising that is preferred. Space in the paper is valuable, and ads. for "filling" are not sought for. The larger sheets, with their cheap patent medicine and absolutely dead "fill up" advertising, may cover a larger sheet of white paper, but that gives them no value. The DAILY NEWS has no dead space. Every line counts. We want our advertising to be news in itself, and hence worth five times to the advertiser which it would be if concealed in "fill up" rubbish. We believe in the system of having the business man advertise when he has something to communicate to the public, and not compel him to take a space which is practically dead to him nine months in the year, in order to have a low rate, while in reality he is paying an excessive rate for the three months when the advertisement may be of advantage to him. The customs, as regards advertising, of the large cities can be just as well adapted to the smaller ones, and such an innovation would grow in popularity as it became thoroughly understood.
