TOY STORE.—Yesterday morning

Herz & Arnold opened at No. S9 Main street, an elegant establishment, devoted exclusively to children's toys and holiday goods. The stock is very large and was carefully selected by Mr. Herz in person, during his recent visit to New York. The stock is now spread out upon tables, shelves and upon the walls in a manner to cause the juveniles to believe it to be the headquarters for Santa Claus' supplies. The store was thronged all day yesterday by indulgent mammas, who are prudently taking time by the forelock.

f5fi

COLD, bleak winter is here. To one claw it means only warmer rooms, lieav ier clothing, ruddier cheeks, sleigh rides over the sparkling enow, skating, and all manner of cold weather festivities while to the other class it means greater expenses of living that seem almost impossible to jneet, a more rigid economy of money, and fuel, and light, that seem equally impossible to exert—beggary, importuning creditors, and everything that humiliates and drives out hope and ambition. IL Is a hackneyed subject, this of the poor but it is oft recurring, and cannot be put away. It will be so as long as the world lasts. There will always be those who are rich in the comforts of home and always those who are poor. It rests, then, with those who are woll provided, to think kindly, and give freely, in cases of genuine distress.

BAUKS.—"HOW much wages

do you get per day!" said an English gentleman to a Clay county coal miner the other day? "About three dollars, sir," was the answer. "What does your living cost you?" "A dollar a day."* "What do you do wish the other two dollars?" "Ph, sir, a man must have his beer, and a little fun now and then." So it happens with many poor fellows who work and wear their lives out in the mines, foundries and workshops of our -land. There is plenty ef work at good wages in America for all who are willing to labor, but how few of (he vaet army oCworkingmen have anything at the end of the year to show as the result of their toil. Journeymen printers get not lees than threedollara per day, and the average is above this. Machinists carpenters, blacksmiths, are as well paid, while unskilled laborers earn from one and a half to two dollars per day. A large number of our best mechanics are single young men, and if they were asked what became cf that portion of their earnings not required to meet their living expenses, the answer would be—broadcloth, fine boots, billiards, beer, and other items which may be classed as fun. Merchant tailors and other fashionable boot-makers get their most expensive orders from journeymen mechanics, clerks and book-keepers and workmen dress as a rule, in more expensive clothing tjj^n their employers, while the beer gardeas and billiard saloons look to them for their main support. This is all folly. A single young man, whose wages are three dollars per annum can save four hundred dollars per annum without depriving himself of a single real pleasure. Invested in a lot in any of the additions adjoining the city, it will double in value in two years, and there is no good reason why every sober and industrious young mechanic may not accumulate iand save in this manner two or three thou sand dollars in four or five years. We know many instances in which this has been done, and such instances should be multiplied. The trouble with maoy young men is in making a start. It seems like a small matter to begin by laying by a few dollars at a time. Let all who reason thus be reminded that the founda tions of the greatest fortunes are all laid in that way. The establish ment of the savings banks our city under the control and manage ment of some of our best citizens furnish good opportunities for all who are dis posed to make a trial. The shameful extravagance of our young men is one of the great banes of American society. In their fruitless pursuit of pleasure olir industrious workmen squander their hard earnings, and after years of toil they can only look back to Uvea wasted, aad for ward to poverty-stricken old age. 'K'

We commend the foregping excellent advice, from the Indianapolis "Journal," of a recentd ate, to the mechanics, and especially the young men of this city.

SOMEBODY who has suffered from an excess of gratuitous puffing "rises to explain" after the following fashion: "The local columns of a newspaper are the most valuable to advertisers, because they are the first read by everybody, and no publisher can give them up to puffing this man'8 patent mahogany sausage Bluffer, or that one's new frangled. double and twisted stump puller, for nothing^nd board himself. Publishing a newspaper is a legitimate business, and the ngwspa per man should have pay for his labor the same as the man who carries the hod or wields the hammer in ft blacksmith shop. It costs money, time and a vast deal of patience to conduct a newspaper, yet no class of men are expected to do as much, for as little pay as the publisher."

Much of this service, whether valuable or worthless, arises from thoughtlessness by those who apply for it. They would not think of asking a carpenter to work a day or two for nothing, or expect a grocer to give them a ham because they had bought a bushel of potatoes but in a '^rintiDg office it is only, in their estimation, a few minutes labor to write "a puff," and it costs no more to put that in type and publish it than the same quantity of matter in a news item for which there is no expectation of special pay. Many, therefore, receive tho favor as a thing of course, and some even grumble if a notice of them or flreir wares is not cbupled with a direct or indirect disparagement of somebody else in the same line of trade. If there should be an intimation that the solicited notice is a purepersonal matter to the solicitor, and the only benefit to be derived from it ensues to himself, and therefore the service should be paid for like any other service it is considered a sufficient answer that the other paper" does such work for nothing, while such a reminder is regarded as a severe rebuke to an avaricious or unaccommodating disposition. For much of this misapprehension of the fact thai printing office is like any other place o( business and can be sustained only on business principles and practices, publishers themselves are responsible. In publishing gratuitously, as is proper, notices of pablic and benevolent objects they have established a practice where it often hard to draw a dividing line, and where they too frequently overstep it Good judgment and a little firmness would correct an evil every country publisher feels and which he has sometime or other talked about, generally with no benefit to himself or anybody else.

Friendly Sons of St. Patrick.—You are requested to meet at your Hall on this evening, as business of importance will be brought before you.

JOHN

DCHKAN, President.

SUCCESSFUL MEN OF THE WEST. PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Mr. Charles Soebuer—His Connection with the Mnsical Interests of the State

Chas. Soehner is a native of Baden, Germany. He received in his youth not only the general scholastic training peculiar to the Germans, but a thorough musical education. While yet a young maD, he was eleeted to the Legislature bat, taking an active part in the revolution of '48 and '49, he suffered with others, the punishment which the government inflicted, namely exile and confiscation of pro--perty. Mr. Soehner, with his familyrai rived in the U. 8. in the winter of 1849, coming almost directly to Indianapolis—his financial affairs in a critical condition.

His early.moaical education, however, now opened tAim the road of future success. He employed his time as a music teacher in Indianapolis till '52, when he removed to Dayton O. Here in a few years, by his integrity, his energy, and ability as an instructor, he was enabled to ^uy out a music stcre in that city. Still he did not abandon his ptofession as a teacher, bat continued uhtil '61. In the meantime, howewer, such success bad attended him that he had established branch piano houses at Hamilton, ()., and Richmond, Ind.

As a Music Teacher and Piano Dealer, Mr. Soehner had the best opportunities to become acquainted with the various makes of Pianos with a critical and sensititive ear, he judges quickly of their qualities of tone, and his long experience as a teacher qualifies him to judge of their durability. With sueh information he could always buy and hold the best in the market. He was very anxious to secure the agency of the Steinway Pianos. This, however, could not be had at his location in Ohio, the agency being held by other dealers previously established. But his ambition was not to be checked, and her soon devised a plan to secure his purpose. To accomplish this he returned, in 1868, to Indianapolis, and soon after his arrival bought the Piano business of Messrs. Benham & Co ., and by so doing secured the

agency. The firm was now Soehner & Benham. Eight months after, from reasons which savorved of intrigue, Messers. Steinway & Sons withdrew the agency from Soehner & Benham. Williard & Co. now became theagsnts and advertised the Steinway as the "best in the world," which is still true. Although the Steinway Pi ano affords less profit to the agent than any other, Mr. Soehner determined to abandon the business, unless he coflfld hive the agency of his favorite instrument. He therefore sold out his interest to Mr. A. M. Benham, and made a visit to Europe.

During this interval, Messrs. Steinway & Sons had reconsidered their action, and awarded to Mr. Soehner, on his return, the agency, not only for Indianapolis, but from Eichmond on the east to Terre Haute on the west, with thirty-four northern and southern counties. In January, 1870, he opened his new Piano House under the Academy of Music,remaining thereuntil April, '71. About that time Messrs. Ben ham & Bro. gave up the Piano business

Mr. Soehner renting a part of their rooms, at 3G East Washington street. Messrs. Benham & Bro. still continue doing the largest business in sheet music, small instruments, organs, etc, in ihe State.

Mr. Soehner had now secured the object long sought, controlinga large terri tory for the sale of the best .instruments made.

The Steinway Pianos are universally conceded to be the leading-first class pianb now before the public. Thqgp instruments are preferred to all others by"*the most celebrated pianists. They are. used by all the principal concert troupes. JL'hey have a truly "world-wide" reputaTOia, being largely exported to Europe and all parts ot the civilized world, and are sought to be imitated by nearly all American and European Piano makers. But afar more valuable distinction even than the first grand gold medal of honor at the Paris Exposition was awarded Messrs. Steinway & Sons, when Prof. Helmhol'z,-whois acknowledged to be the highest European authority in'the science of acoustics, and who occupies that chair in the University of Berlin, after a careful examination of every piano brought under his notice, unhesitatingly selected the Steinway instrument as the only one which reached the acme of perfection, and ordered the purchase of one for special ust, in. his. lectures on acoustic3in the Berlin University. -The latest honor which has been awarded Messrs. Steinway is the receipt of an order from the Empress of Russia for one of their finest full-concert grand pianos, and one of their new uprights, to •omplete the refurnishing of the Winter Palace.

Steinway & Sons mammoth manufactory' is the largest and best arranged estab. lishment of its kind in the w:orld. They make on an average sixty pianos a week, and are still unable to fill their orders.

Mr. Soehner sells, besides the Steinway, other pianos that he has tried and found to be true. The celebrated Knabe, also the Gabler, which took the first premium at the Indiana State Fair of '71. In fact, he buys none except from the most reliable manufacturers, who guarantee their goods, safely enabling him to do the same for his purchasers. He visits New York several times annualy, and 'selects his Pianos in person. Piano pedlers—fellows with oily tongues, perambulating the country, without principle, knowledge or responsibility—are never employed in his business. His Pianos are sold at the wareroom or by catologue and correspondence, or by established agents, either for cash or on time, at lowest prices consistent with quality and finish. Mr. Soehner through his energy and fair dealing, has achieved marked success in business. He is now one of our well-to do citizens, but at the same time one of our hardest work ers. He owns real estate in Indiana and other States, and retains sufficient capital iu his business to make valid his contracts, Piano buyers should bear this in mind, and when visiting Indianapolis call at 3t East Washington street, aud make the ac quaintance of Mr. Soehner, who is sure to make their call pleasant, whether it is social or a business visit.

REDUCTION IN

EXPRESS CHARGES.

The United States Express Company has recently adopted a new and greatly reduced tariff for the carriage of small remittances of money under $150. A remittance of $25 may be sent to any point along its line for fifteen cents, including delivery, and larger sums in proportion A reduction has also been made in the tariff for small parcels. As an example of the extent of this reduction, we may mention that twenty-five cents is the rate for conveying a parcel between .tfeis city and New York.—Ind. Journal.
