An Ambassador of the News Sees Him, But he Feels Indisposed.

A reporter of the NKWB hearing that Senator Voorhees would leave for Washington this afternoon, took a trip to the Terre Haute House and tackled the "Tall Sycamore" in his retreat.

The reporter introduced himself Instating his business, when the following conversation took place:

Reporter—"Senator, the Kkwb would like to have your opinion on several subjects if you have no objection to gtv ing itf

Vborhees—"My young friend this is rather a melancholy occasion for an interview, and besides, I am feeling Tery badly this morning."

Reporter-*-"I do not wish to trouble you, Senator, but who do you think will be Garfield's Secretary of State?"

Voorhees -"That question cannot very well be answered, but I think the Grant men will control the appointment/*

Reporter—"Who do you think will capture the Speakership of the HousetM Voorhees—"My Dear boy you must excuse me, but I really am too indisposed to talk this moruntg."

The NKWS' man thanked the Senator for his information, and expressing regret at his present condition, withdrew

OUR POST-OFFICE!

Th® Opinion of the Business Men on Main Street upon the Post-offloe Question,

The "Post-master" being an all absorb iug,question just now, a reporter of the NEWS concluded to interview the business men on Main street, a* to their preference for Post master.

A few interviews are given to-day, which will lie continued from day to day until a fair expression is had as to the preference of the people.

The first merchant questioned ,on, the subject was J. H. Sykes, Reporter What i9 your opinion on the post-office question?

Sykes: All the candidates are good, worthy men, but I think no change ia necessary. I think it best, to let well enough alone.

We next stepped into Brokaw Bro«. with the following result. ,» Reporter: Mr. Brokaw have vou any preference among the candidates for the Post mastership?

Brpkaw: Not particularly. My oplnl on is that the Postal service is at present in abetter condition than ever before, and I think Filbcck is as goo$ a man as we can find. .,

Bank was next

The National State visited. t^-K t/j:..,: te a Reporter: I would like to inquire Mr. Ilussey who among the different candidates vou prefer for Postmaster.

Husser: Well, I have no preference. I dont. care for any change. Nick Smith was then called upon.

Reporter: I want to ask you who you prefer among the candidates for Postmaster.

Smith: Who are the candidates? Reporter: Buntin, Filbeck, Dial, Jones, Miller and Greiner.

Smith: I am for Buntin first, but I think he stands no show. My second choice isM. N. Dial. I think my father's choice is the same.

F. J. Biel: I think no change is necesary. G.F.Rogers: I have no thoughts on the matter, except that the mail is all right, and the present condition of affairs should continue.

Harvey Opposed to more than one term, prefers D.'C. Greiner. W.B.Warren: Prefers Harmon Miller.

Froeb: Thinks as loug as a man performs his work to the advantage of the public let him stay.

Fenner fc Lotze: Are satisfied desire no change. W. F. Walmsley: Does not oppose any of the candidates but thinks if & change is made in the regular order and fitness of things,'W. Arnold is entitled to the position.

H. S. Richardson: Is in favor of Arnold, whom he thifikk should have it. R. L. Ball, the stove dealer, says that Filbcck is the candidate to support, and he wishes to see him continue in office.

C. W. Powers says that he is for Nick Filbeck J. G. Shryerr.says that he is ia favor of Nick Filbeck thinks that his administration hris bepn ft good ooe, and that it is better for the Republican party to keep him whera he is.

Joseph Shrycr is for the present incumbent.' I L. B. Martin of the Savings Bank, says, O! Filbeck, he's a good fellow, give it to him. "Frank MeKctmr of McKren's bank says, that he has no choice among the candidates, are all good men.

Mr. Pemjw Deraing had no particular preference, thought any of the candidates wduld make a good postmaster.

Mr. Charles Warren, cashier of the National State Bank, thought that either Jones or Filbeck would make a good officer. The candidates were all good men.

Noyes Andrews, ttye boot and shoe merchant, believed in dividing up the offices, so that every one could get a chance at thfem, but thought that it was necessary to look after the party's interests, and

It ia Not Done Often, but "We Pay you four for one when it is.

At twen^v minutes past ten o'clock last night, tjhc rain waspourlngdisftially upon the city, as the "Scooper" accotniMmied by a kind friend sallied fourth in search "Pointers." The nose of the ''Scooper" is built on the JlennaUnance plan, and lie scents news from afar, therefore as if by instinct he took a northcrnly direction, and soon stood before a modest looking house not far from the I. & St. L. Depot.

At the door of the mansion his kind friend ifave a mysterious knock, which Was quickly answered by an "exoduuter" with whom he held a whispering conversation of a few minutes. The "Scoopqr" was then invited to. stop in, which inyitatian he gladly accepted as rivulets of rain were begining to trickle down his spinal column, though a hole in the crazy umbrella which he sported. (The "ScoOperV" new umbrella had been stolen early in the morning).

The 5room into which he was usliered was a gaudy affair, with a side-board, of which the principal ornaments were a nude statute, a box of cigars uud a deck of cards,

This howevever was merely an anteroom the "Scoopcr" and his friend were shown into an inner room, which presented a more animated appearance. In this room was a peculiar table,, covered with green cloth upon which seemed centred all interest. The "Scooper" had been on the trail of the tiger, aud had succeeded in huntiilg him to his lair.

It was the orig nal "Faro," "ten cect checks," ond was chiefly patronized by railroad men. Around the table were sltting8ome halfdozen of these gentlemen attentively engaged in "coppering the act"1 and "playing the jack open."

As the cheerful click of tiie "chips" smote upon the ears of the "Scoopet,"

Broke! Broke.'^BrokC! I haven't a red you see, The shining face of .the coin that's gone,

Will never come back to ma.

The "Scooper" and his friend w&tchfed the manipulation of the paste boards a few minutes longer, and then quietly withdrew.

The night was,of pitchy darkness, and with torrents of rain depending upon them, they hurriedly walked to Maiin street, where the "Scooper" bade his friend good night, and quietly walked homewards. His feelings,, a« he walked along, were of pity and compassion fpr the infatuated unfortunates who believe they can "beat the game."
