THE next ball will be that of the Hibernian Benevolent Society at Dowling Hall on Wednesday evening of next week. Of course there will be a large attend ance and a good time.

NOT

MURDBRED.—John

L- Spring, the

old man in Nevins township, who was found dead on Christmas morning, was not murdered, as at first reported, but died a natural death of old age.

THE DAILY

EXPRESS

now goes out on

the early morning trains of six railroads, and is read in all the neighboring towns except Bockviile, at an early hour each morning. We are thaukful to many friends in these towns for their unsolicited efforts to increase our circulation.

CONTINENTALKITCHEN.—Thecarpen ters and painters have transformed the parlors in the basement of the Congregational Church, into a real old fashioned kitchen, with its large, generous, hospitable looking fire place and oven, from which will be drawn to-night the tempting and appetizing cookery—such as our foremothers prepared} for our forefathers. Drop in to-night and see the Continental people in costume, see the tableaux, hear the music and eat a hearty supper.

ONTHE WITNESS STAND.—There are various kind* and styles of witnesses 7ho make their appearance on the stand in the police courts. There is the knowing witness—the cunning fellow— with the catch me if you can expression, who generally leaves with the smirk of satisfaction gone from his face, and o' a generally dilapidated appearance after cross-examination. Then there is the preternatually stupid fellow, who can't or won't understand the plainest questions. The swift witness, who is over-anxious to tell his story, and answers short questions with immensely long and irrelevant replies. Then there is the fair witness, who quietly tells just what he knows, and no more and that's the kind that are fewest in our courts.

A WORDTO YOUNG MEN.—There are many young men in this city who in a few years will be its active, leading business men. Are they preparing themselves for their responsibilities? Are they employing their leisure hours, especially their evenings, in reading and study, and the acquisition of knowledge and the influence which it exerts in all the departments of life? There is no occupation in which intelligence does not pay and the clerk in a store, and the boys of all work, have each one hour a day to devote to study. Here are seven hours a jveek, twenty-eight hours a month, three hundred and sixty-five hours, or fifty-two days in a year, for study. This opportunity should be improved in useful reading, and acquiring information. Young men to ripe in the itrorld must be intelligent.

SCBLY PEOPLE.—This busy, rushing world is full of surly people, who would not be so disagreeable if they only knew the art of being social and agreeable. There are some people so thorougly cross that it seems as if they were born into this world with their teiflpers in such a snarl and tangle that no gleam of sunshine has ever had a chance to penetrate the labyrinth These people act on your dispo* sition in the same manner that a thundercloud does on your intention of "dressing up A cross, constantly fretting disposition marks the face even more-snrely than the small pox for there has been discovered something to smooth away the unsightly touches of the fingers of disease but science takes np her books and slinks off before crossness. A desert is a source of comfort in comparison with these people for even in the sandy sea you can dig down, and at last strike the cool, bubbling water, that will bring a pleasant brook on the stern earth, and make it blossom as the rose. But the more you dig on cross people, the more they won't blossom, and the only reward for your trouble is your implements of good nature with their edges broken and turned, and all over your whole being a dry burning of sand it may be, or coarseness, for these spasms are contageous. Think, when you meet these people, how much to be pitied they are, and howmnch of the "joy of the whole earth" they voluntarily put out of thetr lives that "an ouace of prevention is worth a pound of cure," and go on your way determined to use that best of cosmetics, "a merry heart," which "maketh a glad countenance."

DON'TADVERTISE.—Don't do it. Don' advertise your business it's paying out money to accommodate other pedftle if they want to buy your goods, let them hunt you up.

Don't advertise, for it gets your name abroad, and you are apt to be flooded with circulars from biiHiness houses, and to be bored with "drummers" from the wholesale establishments, all of which also results in soliciting your order for new goods, and money to pay for them, which is very annoying to one of a dyspeptic temperament.

Opens Saturdays at 12 m.

The Monev Order office. Call Boxes and (General Delivery open from 7:30 a m. to 7:00 p. m.

Don't advertise, for it brings people in from the country, (country folks, yon know, are of an enquiring turn of mind,) and they will ask you many astonishing questions about prices, try your temper, with showing them goods, and even vex you with the request to tie them up which puts you to an additional trouble of buy ing more. .-

At the afternoon session the plaintiff filed affidavits charging that one juror had said he would "hang the jury six weeks, if necessary, in favor of McGreg or," and that another juror had made statements showing that his feelings were n^gainst the plaintiff. The affidavitsof the jurors were then filed, denying in part the charge, and explaining in part. The Sheriff's affidavit was filed, denying par tiality. The-court held the jurors compe tent, and refused to discharge the jury The plaintiff's counsel then stated that they had not been able to furnish all their evidence in regard to the jury, and that' they were not satisfied with the manner in which the jury had been selected, and were, for these reasons, not willing to try the case by this jury. The plaintiff then dismissed her case, and commenced anoth er suit against defendent, which will stand for trial next term.

For the Exprett.

The Southwestern Railroad. The main question to be considered at this time is that of dollars, and the propriety of adding one hundred and fifty thousand of them, to the tax duplicate of Harrison township and the City of Terre Haute.

The stockholders in their address to the voters, make this statement: "The sum of $150 000 assessed upon the Town hip of Harrison, will make the snbscrip tionofthe city but little, if any, more than $100,000." This is a mistake. The taxable* are as follows: City, $8,668,120 Harrison, ontside of city, $1,673,180.

On this basis, the city would have to pay $126,698, and the outside township, B23.302. But this is not all the Tax .Payers would have 1o pay. There is every year a large Delinquent List, and if this additional and oppressive taxation is added, that list will be much greater dur ing the next two years. To cover this, and other contingencies, not less than $20,000 extra will be required. I have been informed that the Commissioners will add one per cent, per annum for two years on the taxables, if the people decide by vote to make the subscription to the stock.

What will the stock be worth when we get it? Nothing It will not be worth the expense of printing the certificates. It will only serve as a reminder of our folly, in after years.

The road will be mortgaged for money to complete it, and will ultimately pass into the hands of the mortgagees, like most other similar enterprises.

The idea of stock is a delusion. If we vote to be taxed, we virtually vote to give the road one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and they who pay their taxes will have to foot up all delinquencies.

Can we afford to do this for the sake of a railroad through Prairieton and Darwin to Robinson, or some other point?

Can we afford to double oar city taxes annaally for the next two years? I cannot, and shall therefore vote against the proposition. J. O. J.

Notice.—I hereby warn all persona not to trust my wife Margaret Baugh, on my account, as I will pay no debts contracted by her or any other person. 29-2t

WHAT

s,.v'"

UOiXii

Don't advertise it gives people abroad a knowledge of your town, and they come and settle in it it will grow, and other bnsiness will be induced to come in, and thus increase your competition.

In short, if you would have a quiet town, not too large if you would not be harrassed by multitudinous cares and perplexities of business if you would avoid being bothered with paying for and losing time to read a great camber^pme newspaper, just remain quiet don't let the people know five miles away, where you are, nor what you are doing, and you will be severely let alone to enjoy the bliss of undisturbed repose

THE BREACH

PROMISE CASE.—In

the Humaston McGregor case, on yester day, the plaintiff filed a motion in writing to set aside the jury because two of the jurors had decided against the plaintiff before they were called on the jury, and also because the jury was selected improp erly by the brother-in-law of McGrego: The court then adjonrned until 2 o'clock for the parties to file affidavits on the motion.

a difference' there is in those

girls who wait on hotel or restaurant tables. Some are nice, neat, trim little women, who come up to you lady-like and quietly, and ask yon ui a pleasant way what you desire for the repast. You give your order and enjoy the meal. In contrast to this we remember a case. While traveling some time ago, weentered hotel dining-room, and after sitting at the table at least five minutes, a sourfeatured little mix rushed up behind us, and, in a smothered screech, said, "B'fstakh'mn'gs." We loeked round and asked her if it was catching. She acted as though she wanted to bite our head off, and repealed, "B'fstakh'hn'gs." Then we began to see it. It was a conundrum— beafsteak, ham and eggs. Fearing the steak might be as tough aa herself, we decided on "h'mn'gs," and left the unpleasant place as quick as possible.

From this day on, until the end of the season, Erlanger & Co., will give a re duction of ten per cent on all winter good*, viz: Overcoats, Beaver Suits, Shawls, Undershirts, Drawers, Ac. Here is a chance for everybody to secure a bargain. Call at middle room, Opera House.
