FALL BARGAINS READY
New Stocks in All Lines Will Be Displayed for Out-of-Town Visitors Wednesday.
While autumn clothes have been on 'display by Terre Haute merchants for some time and have been before the eyes of the crowds of shoppers, who have been attracted to the city by the Suburban day special offers, the local merchants are receiving daily new shipments of fall good and when Wednesday dawns the barg Hn seekers and all other classes of shoppers will find new stocks awaiting them. "From now on Suburban day will become more attractive, possibly, than It has been," said a local merchant Tuesday, "for the reason that we have been forced to make what offers we could to the generous shoppers between seanons. The fag end of summer has about been reached and the fall shopping is about ready to begin in earnest. In view of that fact the merchants have not been lax about getting in their fall goods and I find it rather surprising how freely the local dealers have stocked up in the face of the doubtful standing of trade for some time. 'T expect local merchants to show better business on Surbaban day from now on than they have in the past for it appears that trade conditions throughout the country are opening up. I can freely state that my business has been showing a steady tendency toward increasing."
People who have patronized the local stores on Suburban day are beginning to realize that the Terre Haute merchants are working no hoax on them and that they really get value received, for their money.
ALL SIGNS POINT TO LONG, SEVERE WINTER
TULSA, Okla., Sept. 7.—Old time Indians say every sign indicates the approach of a long, cold winter. They say squirrels already have begun storing up nuts, the "bark on trees is thicker than ordinary, the summer has been abnormally cool and wet, the migration of birds has already started, and a dozen other signs, which, according to the aborigines, never fail, all go to forecast a severe winter.
It is noticeable that the Cherokees in the Spavinaw country are making unusual preparations for winter. For the first time in years they have stored up a surplus of food and wood, and they are advising their white brethren to do likewise.
BALL COURT MARTAL OPENS.
Guardsman Charged With Killing of Member of Militia. INDIANABOLIS, Sept. 7.—The trial of Sergeant Edwin F. Ball, of this city, before a court martial, composed of officers of the Indiana national guard, was begun in the senate chamber at the state house today, and was expected to last several days.
Ball, during an encampment of the guard at Fort Benjamin Harrison, two years ago, shot Priivate Walter Dowell, New Albany, Dowell dying from the effects of the wound. After much argument the Ball case was dismissed from the civil courts, it being alleged that military authorities had jurisdiction.
ROBBERY SUSPECT TAKEN.
Danville Police Hold Man Wanted Here for Burglary. Harry Isler, charged with robbing the Thompson grocery at Fourth and Eagle streets, and, who, for the past three months, has been evading capture, has been apprehended by the police in Danville, 111., according to advices received by Deputy Prosecutor Foley Tuesday morning.

HELPING HANDERS FAITHFUL.
Tots So Interested in Work They Won't Go Home. An almost dally increase has been noticeable in the enrollment of the Tehressa Helping Hand, the mission established at Ninth and Ash streets, since its opening several weeks ago. About thirty-five girls are learning the rudiments of house work, such as cooking, serving food properly after it Is prepared, sewing, sweeping, dusting, washing and ironing clothes. "They hajve all been so interested that they didn't want to go home when the time came," one of the vice presidents of the mission said.
Since the city schools have been started, a change in the conduct of the classes, which have been held every afternoon, will be necessary. The children will go to the mission after school hours and, instead of the entire number going each evening, it will have to be divided so that part of them may receive instruction one evening and the other part the next.
NEVER VISITED COLLETT PARK.
Until She Went to Light House Mission Picnic Wednesday. Born in Terre Haute about forty-five years ago, and reared here, a woman, whose children attend the Light House mission Sunday school, visited Collett park for the first time Monday. She was one of about two hundred persons, 170 of whom ai'fe enrolled students of the Sunday school, who attended the annual picnic of the mission.
The mission picnic Is usually held on July 4, but owing to a shortage in funds this year, the Sunday school was unable to pay for wagons to take the party out. The older girls of the mission, with some outside help, provided the^ lunch for the picnic Monday, and each person paid his or her car fare. Young and old alike devoted the day to old-fashioned games, which were interrupted at noon with the big picnic spread.
HONORS FOR WEDDIGEN.
COPENHAGEN, Sept. 7—The next popular hero in Germany to be honored by the erection of a wooden statue, which will be converted into metal by gold, silver and iron nails, contributed by jjdmirers, will be Captain Otto Wodc.igen, who commanded the submarine U-9 when she sank three British cruisers in the North sea last September.

CLEARY IMPROVES DELIVERY.
Carriers Hereafter Will Handle Mails Later. Notices have been posted in the post* office building of vacations for mail carriers. Those who will be off duty from September 11 to 18 are Turner, Erne, Van Gilder and Ja/Ckson, and those from September 13 to 29 are Hornung, McCoskey and Rishel.
Another change announced by Postmaster Cleary is, that, beginning September 17, all carriers, who cover residence districts, will leave the postofflce a half hour later in the morning and the afternoon. Under the new orders they will report for duty at 7 o'clock in the morning and 2 o'clock in the afternoon, whereas they haive been starting at 6:30 and 1:30 o'clock. The three deliveries in the business district will be the same. "The change in the residential districts is being made," said Mr. Cleary, "to enable the men to get more of the late mail than they have. Oftentimes the mail which goes into the residential districts is of as important character as the business mail and really should be delivered soon after its arrival."
OSCAR BARNES BADLY WANTED.
Police Chief Asked to Send Man Home in Hurry. The police are searching for Oscar Barnes, supposed to be a laborer, who is wanted at his home, in Bridgeport, 111. Chief Doyle, of the local department, received the following telegram Tuesday morning: "Please find Oscar Barnes. He is teaming or working on the streets but, oh, please find him and tell him to come at once if he wants to see Golda alive."
An investigation of the street department payroll failed to show any such name. The telegram was signed by Mrs. Leon McCleave.

WITH SPOILS OF WAR
Wins Loving Cup in Drills Preceding Military Spectacle Held at Indianapolis.
When Company of the Indiana national guard arrived in Terre Haute Monday night it brought back a beautiful silver loving cup awarded for the best drilled company in the state. The company won the prize by its execution of the Butts' manual at the military tournament in Indianapolis Labor day.
The local militiamen not only won recognition with their drill work, but thousands of spectators applauded the Terre Haute guardsmen when they appeared on the side of the blues in the "war in Indiana" exhibition. It was noticeable that the company was better drilled under fire than any of the guardsmen participating in the "war."
One thing which particularly attracted attention to the local company, was the appearance of the flve-year-old son of Sergeant Mounts in all of the drills. The youngster wore full equipment and executed the drills and movements along with the veterans. He was applauded when the company drew up in front of the grandstands.
Captain Gerhardt Monninger and Sergeants Collins and Moore Willi Privates Bridges, Kruse and Clark did not return with the company. These men remained to participate in the shoot to be held for the militiamen. Captain Monninger is statistician and adjutant of the camp during the shooting tourney.

CAPT. J. E. BUTD (C. & E. Passenger Agent)—I don't know when I have enjoyed anything as much as I did the clam bake at the Apple club grounds Monday. I got down there Just about when the qlams were done and think I ate aibout six dozen of them. They certainly were fine.
S. O. HUFFMAN (Physical Director Y. M. C. A.)—I wish I was a mathematician. I have been Juggling figures for three hours this morning trying to And why the books show a deficit of $6.02. After looking at my pocketbook I am convinced that I didn't get the money. "/"V"
JOHN J. CLEARY (Postmaster)—I never saw such a feast in all my life as we had at the Apple club outing Monday. The steamed half chickens were delicious enough to melt In one's mouth. ••••.-
HERBERT BRIGGS (Centennial celebration booster)—We expect to have the greatest celebration in the history of the city next year when Indiana observes1 its centennial. We want all families who have ancestors who took part in the making of history in Vlgfo county to get together of them.
MICHAEL DEA'SEE—(Councilman-^.t-large)—Anyone with the least bit of common sense and any degree of civic pride certainly could raise no objection to the improvement of North Center street from Beech street to Linden. That highway or alleyway or dump or whatever else you might want to call it before it was gone over, was a disgrace to the city. The council, board of works, and other city officials all looked it over before steps were taken to repair it.
