Jr-

Paulcher Pigman, ten years of age, is at the Home for the friendless, and the police are trying to locate his lather, who .came with him to this city, Saturday. The father left the boy standing in front of a store on Main street aii'd ran away. It is supposed that he has left the city.

His father left and he eaine with him to this ity- Last night they stayed at a lodging house pome place^ in the city and this morning started out to Imnt for a relative who lives some place In this city.

Finally they stopped in front of a store on. Main street and the father told the boy to wait on the sidewalk while he went in the store to make some inquiry regarding the relative.

The man slipped out a rear door, and has not been seen since. The lad waited until certain that'his father had deserted kim and then began crying.

He is an exceptionally bright lad and it would be an easy matter to fipd a home for him.

BRAZIL NEWS.

Andrew Ilolloway, chief of the fire department, has made his Teport of the fires for 1902 since May 15, when the new department took charge. There were a total of twenty-three calls, but seven of these iveire false alarms. Many of the fires resulted in no loss, but the total for the entire j^ear foots up only .$1,451.44.

The McRoy Clay'Works, the first clay plant to be built in this city, has passed iflto the hands of the trust and is now the property of the National Fire-Proof-ing company, with headquarters at Pittsburgh /i,

While the transfer of the property was made about 6 months ago, the change in the local management did not take place until January 1. when James McM. Graves resigned as general manager. He. was a stockholder in the McRov company, holding the office of vice president.

The new superintendent is E. 1^. Beidler of Chicago. A. W. Beidlerl with offices in Chicago, is general manager.

The residence of John Daly on the corner of Hoosier and Church street, was destroyed by fire at 1:15 this morning. The fire is thought to have originated from a defective flue and the flames were beyond control when discovered. Mr. Daly and family were only able to escape with their clothing and a few household articles. The department made quick work, preventing the fire from spreading to other buiWings. The loss on the house and contents will aggregate $2,000, which is partly covered by insurance. The house was the property of Mrs. Lelia McHenry.

On turning the corner at Main and Washington streets, in going to the fire the rear axle on the hook and ladder wagon broke. The axle was completely severed at the'coHar of the right hand wheel. The wagon has been in servise only a year and is guaranteed by the makers.

At 5:30 o'clock last evening the department was called to West Birch street where a boy's play house was on fire. The shanty took fire from a powder can stove- and was completely destroyed.

At the meeting of the council tomorrow night the Brazil Brewing, Ice atid Power cmpetty will make a proposition for the purchase of their electric lighting plant by the city. The proposition is a very liberal one and will, without doubt, be gobbled up by the council.

The

company

proposes that the city

pay the annual rental for the street lights now in use for a period of ten yc^rs, which is during the life of the company's contract. The company also asks that the light furnished for the city building, by the Terre Haute Electric company be transferred to them and payable in the antiual rental. This will reduce the period of payments to 8 1-2 months.

The company agrees to. move the dynamoB, engines, boilers, switchboards, etc., comprising ther plant, to a spot near the water works pumping station, so that it nan be operated' iri conjunction with that. The company will also gratuitously turn over to the city all theii4 contracts for commercial lighting. ft is claimed that if council acccpts this proposition an iniunetion will be filed by interested parties.

Heading Factory Workmen Will Seek Employment in Plants Throuyh4 out the Country.

The whistle of the Blair & Failey Heading lactory blew fcatuniay nigiu lot the laot time, and the occasion lieid ^specially for .tlie older men who have uem wiili tiie company ever since it started a great deal oi sadness.

For some time it has been known that at the first ol tire year the Blair & Failey Co. would discontinue its business. .Last week it was definitely settled that the work wouid cease at the plant on January 3rd. The company lias been steadily increasing the pay of the men for the last few weeks, and on the last four days each man was given fifty cents per day extra for his work, in view of the closing time on iSatuiday.

When the whistle blew Saturday night most of the younger men saw in the event only the fact that they would immediately leave for a new field of work, and were consequently happy in the anticipated change. For the older men this was not the case. The whistle blew for over ten minutes and the young fellows commenced to cheer and shout. For the old men however the desire for change was lacking and the closing of the fac: tory, in which a good many years of their, lives had been spent, meant to them more than the mere delight in going to new fields. Several of them crowded about the superintendant, and one fellow, in whose eyes there was a suspicious moisture, voiced the feelings of this latter element when he said," There is nothing in this for me to feel like shouting about. When I think that that old whistle will never blow again for work nere, it gives me a strange feeling here," and he placed his hand over his heart, and the grave silence of the others was an unconscious "amen" to the sentiment.

Mail}' of the former employes have already left Terre Haute, to engage in work in the factories at Memphis, and in Arkansas. The majority will go to Memphis, although a large percentage will accompany their superintendant to Arkansas where they will wark for Mr. Alfrey, their old employer, before the Blair, Failey Co. took tho plant here. Those who have not already gone, will leave Thursday.

Seemed to Save Got Oat. A. Chicago man on his summer vacation

went

to a Wisconsin lake resort

and one day became engaged in conversation with the proprietor. He commented on the attractiveness of the surroundings and finally aaked the hotel keeper how many acres there were in the property. "About forty," replied the proprietor. "I see there is another resort a short distance north of you. Who owns that?" "The Widder Simmons." "You and she join, do-you not?"

The landlord's sunburned face turned a shade or two redder. "We're expecting to next October," he said, "but I didn't think anybody'd found it out yet."

Preach Coffee.

The delicious flavor which all traveler* in France discover in the coffee of that country is got, it is said, by the addition of a little butter and sugar during the roasting process. To every three pounds of roasting berries a tablespoonful each of butter and powdered sugar Is added. These in melting spread over the beans In a thin coating. which holds the aroma and contributes a caramel flavor that is delicious and distinctive.—Harper's Bazar.

A Modern Adonla.

Lady—Your partner has fainted, I hear. How did that happen? Officer—It is quite simple. I danced with her three times in succession. The great happiness was too much of a strain for her nerves. I am now taking my departure lest I should do any further damage.—From the German.

Friday Is lockr.

There is luck in odd numbers. There lfl double luck in two odd numbers. Friday is the sixfb day of the week. Six Is the double of three, which is not only an odd number, but one which proverbially possesses a charm. Therefore Friday is a doubly charmingly lucky day—Boston,Advertiser.

Commissioners in Session. The county commissioners were in session today, but no attempt was made to elect. a county attorney. The day was devoted to the routine work on claims against the county and the approving of the contract with F. C. Meredith for the construction of twenty-four bridges.
