of business, and if you start on the wrong track, the farther you go, or progress, the worse you are off. Be sure you are right and then go ahead. How man} miserable Failures can you call to mind by guess work, yet you often submit to guess work in many of the duties and incidents of life.- Are you willing to travel a road on a supposition, not knowing its destination? In short, suppose the druggist should mix his prescriptions by gutss work, what would be the result. The answer Is very plain and simple: a miserable failure. If the Doctor diagnoses your case wrong, of course bis treatment and remedies are wrong. It is the duty of every physician to tell and locate your disease, and tell you every symptom, without asking you a question. This Doctor Jordan does, and can do in every case, and the Doctor would advise no one to take treatment from any Doctor unless he can do this to their satisfaction. If you have to tell the Doctor, whoever he may be, all your aches, pains and troubles, be kind enough to tell tbe Doctor what to take to cure you. Pay the Doctpr for his coming and asking you what was your trouble. Then go and buy your own medicines and treat yourself. Doctor Jordan will tell you all your symptoms connected with your disease, of whatever cause or nature, it may be, free of charge at his office in this city, 326% Main street, Terre Haute, where he can be consulted from the 25th of each month until the 1st from the 1st to 24th at his home office, 114 West Washington street, Indianapolis, Ind.

Important Decision.

In the Supreme Court on Thursday, Chief Justice Elliot, rendered the following decision: "8718. Geo. W. Everhart vs. T. H. & I. R. R. Co. Marion, S. C,

Worden, J.—The complaint of tha appellant averred in substance that he was about to cross the defendant's track near the depot in Indianapolis, and that there were several empty cars on the track moving slowly that an employe of the defendant, engaged in oiling and attending to the cars requested him to get op the ears and tighten the brake that he did so, and, while so doing, other cars of the defendant were carelessly, recklessly and willfully run against the car on which he was, and the shock threw him on the ground and beneath the wheels of tbe cars, so that he was seriously injured. A demurrer was sustained to the complaint. On the authority of 1 H. & N., 773: 69 Penn., 210, and 48 Miss., 112, the facts stated did not render the defendant liable. If the plaintiff could be regarded as a servant of the defendant he could not recover for an injury caused by the negligence of his fellow servants. But he cannot be so regarded (128 Mass., 530). He was not requested to man the break by any one that is shown to have had authority from the defendant to make such employment. The plaintiff was a mere volunteer, consenting, at the request of an employe, to perform service which should have been performed by the employes. He is in no better condition, legally, than if he had been a 'mere intermeddler. Judgment affirmed.

The list is constantly increasing in length.

An Arkansas Trsveler-A Wcll-Ws-tered State—Uempbts Tr»de DepraslsB List Trip—BL* BBSIBMS —Tailed Experience-

LITTLE ROCK, Ark^ Jan. 25,1882. Editor of ths Express. Two weeks ago the writer left Terre Haute, for the sunny South, and about all he has been able to see is rain, high water and mud, and tbe question natnrally is with me: Shall I or not risk my neck, over the 140 miles of railroad from Memphis to Little Rock but as a commercial traveler has no discretions in these matters, no difference ss to eonditions of weather, bad roads or even to the breaking of his neck, I concluded to take the risk on what is or has been considered tbe worst 140 miles of road in tbe United States, as we had previously traveled, it for the past thirteen years, from three to four times per year. You can imagine my. surprise when I tell jon that tbe road is iu good condition, and that the many beautiful rivers we crossed had not been troubled by the rains, and their waters kept well within their banks. In speaking of the rivers of Arkansas, I doubt whether there is another State that can boast of so many, commencing with tbe Mississipppi, bordering the entire length of the State. Then comcB the White, Cash, Black, Arkansas, including a number of others, with the great Red River of the Northwest. The State of Arkansaw is fast taking her position as one among many others iu the commercial world. Her timber resources alone are attracting speculators from all sections of our country. To speak of these inducements as they desefve would be tedious.

Little Rock, the capital, is improving in fine buildings to a greater extent than any other city of her population in the south. The general trade of the cily in all departments is simply immense. Business in the south, however, seems to be on the wane, especially so in the ciiy of Memphis. Never before have I heard of so much spcculatiou as to failures, and from the general conversation of business men there is evidently a great deal of real demoralization in financial circje". Short crops, high water and the inability to make collections, including even the unusually open winter for this section!, seems to be the ruliDg causes for the^ present condition of trade. Even admitting these suppositions of causes, there are yet many other causes for this depression in financial circles in the South, one only of which I will mention, and that is the general hospitality of the people, as they call it down here. The fact is, the Southern people make money easy when they do make it. Hence the old proverb, "Come easy,., go easy," is their motto. The luxuries and pleasures they will have, no matter ss to their cost.

The writer is making this his laat trip, to end about March 20th, back to Terre Haute. Thirteen years ol constant travel in 26 of the Stales, 175,000 miles traveled by rail, 20,000 miles by boat, 5,000 miles by-stage aud on horse b-ck, with 19,000 miles thrown in for sundries, making a grand total of 219,000 miles or about 4.380 days, not including nights or Sundays, at an expenee, salary included, of $12.50 per day, with direct sales to dealers of $1,675,583 93, at a fraction over 3i per cent, on sales, not including orders that naturally follow, and are sent forward to the houao represented by the commercial traveler, and daring the 13 years not $500 iu lcs?es have been sustaine*!.

The life of a commercial man is a hard one, especially when be has the charge of so much territory. True, it may be different with that class who have one State, or several counties, or who may start out on a Monday morning and report back to his house Saturday nights howtver, I think if any line of travel would prove a bore to the writer, it would be that of being confined to very sin *11 territory. The record of thirteen years' travel, when written up would, uaturally have much of Interest to commercial men, but for the present excuse TRAVELER.

PARIS, III, Jan. 27, 1882.

Editor of the Express: Allow me to call your attention to the facts in the case rtferred to in this morning's Express,, heeded "A Ssrious Charge." I received from Gov. Cullom an appointment as State agent or messenger, and a requisJ.*lon upon Gov. Porter for a warrant for tbe thieves mentioned, and I did all I could do in the premises—that was to deliver my warrant to an officer at Terre Hante and then to receive from him or them (ss the case might be) the prisoners, which I did. I had nothing or could have nothing tc do with any court, only to accept the prisoners from the officer. I could not execute a warrant issued to your officers. I suppoee you, as well as tbe majority of Terre Haute's enlightened citizens, know that the gang has been in jail at Terre Haute for two weeks or more. Owing to some delay in our local courts here I did not get my requisition until laBt Tuesday. Then 1 "hastened" lo Indianapolis, and arrived at Terre Haute day before yesterday in ths evening, and about 10:30 o'clock yesterday, after waiting at the I. & St. L. depot about an hour, I "hastened" home to Paris in company with the prisoners and Officer Goodpasture, whom the chief kindly allowed to join the escorting party. suppose probably tbe proper thing to „ave done at Terre Hante would have been to havo kept my prisoners for a week or two at some prominent hotel. I think that if people who are afflicted with a chronic desire to find some fault with the mode of capturing or transporting thieves, conla have a good ca?e of their own it would teach them something, and that is this, that a poor devil of a policeman has a pretty hard time in this country without being kicked by gruuters who don't know what they are talking about. There is noihing that so encourages an officer in the discharge of his duty as to mtke unfounded aud senseless charges against him. When the parties who make this charge against me of kidnapping thieves, find out that should there be any illegality in the proceedings at T. H., they would fall on their own efficient home officials, they probably will hold op, but if there is anything improper I am sure it is not intentional on the part of the officers who assisted me.

Silk stands fourth in the list of dutypaying imports, ranking after sugar, wool and iron.

He is more than six feet tall, and is bent but little.

Mr. Paul Bert, who not long ago received a present of some crocodiles from Egypt, has publicly dissected live in the theatre of the Sorbohne, Paris. Among the facts noted was the almost entire absence of brain matter, and it was concluded that these reptiles are devoid of reason, and animated by a destructive instinct.

President Grevy can "turn on11 his theatre or his opera whenever he likes, and sitting quietly at home in the Elysee can hear all the first artists of his country.

The saying "as rich as a Jew" is complained of by the Jewish 'Messenger as misleading at present, even if it ever had any justification.

A young man proposed for the hand of a beautiful girl. As she hesitated about answering, ho said: ."I await yotir answer with bated breath."

There is at least one man in Maine who might make his fortune in Wall street. Several years ago a Baptist society was formed near Brunswick, and a church edifice was purchased and moved to a convenient site. The man employed to perform the work of removal—whether one of the deacons or not does not appear—bought a number of the pews at a small price, gst up a religious excitement in the village, and when it was at its height closed out his purchase at a profit of $500.

Tho Paris correspondent of the London Queen, writes: "Parisians read very little in comparison with Londoners.

Dr. Brown-Sequard, of Paris, is the grandson of Irish emigrants to America, and the son of an American naval officer who was probably massacred by pirates, and of a French Creole lady.

The railway up Vesuvius, known as the Fimicolare, is a French undertaking. It was started from a capital of £72,000 and costs £4,000 a year to maintain. In fifteen years the company expect to realise the entire capital, and as I

the lease from the government runs thirty years, there remain fifteen years for profits, which are estimated at ten per cent after the working expenses are taken out The company is insured in five French houses at 4f. per lv000f. No "English house was willing to insure it under lOf. Everything about the road is said to be well managed. At the top there is a restaurant, and a good one.

A tramp who wandered about the eastern counties of Connecticut was remarkably ugly and apparently sixty years old, his hair ana beard, being streaked with white. He was a successful beggar, his hideous appearance exciting pity. One day a wwaaan at Preston refused to give him a dinner, and he angrily assaulted her, throwing off his air of feebleness and knocking her down with great vigor. Being arrested, washed, and dressed in clean clothes it was found that his hair was artificially whitened, that his decrepitude was all assumed, and that his age was not-over 80. »i

She Thought She Had Met Her Fate. She was a maiden lady all the way from the classic shades of Boston, and when she entered a Twenty-third street car for the first time she sat down and waited patiently for the conductor to take her fare. One by one the other passengers dropped off, until some time before she reached her destination she was left alone.

Then the driver turned aud looked at her. That first led her to notice him, and she saw a dark, haughty-looking man in a plaid ulster and a nobby cap, and she knew then that he was an Italian count in disguise, and her heart nearly ceascd beating as she tried to fathom the interest that was plainly discernible in his gaze, and she thrilled with the thought that he might have discovered in her his fate.

He looked again as he fixed those dark, deep, souSul eyes upon her, with the mute interrogation of an exiled soul, he tied the lines around the handles of the brake, and pulled off a pair of shabby gloves, exhibiting a white patrician hand, with a large seal ring on the little finger, (all that for $20 a month and finds himself!) "Beautiful hands!" murmured tho enraptured passenger. "Oh, he comes,

the conquering nero comes! It must be that I have at last met my fate 1" She could not lift her bashful eyes to

Sfisthe

as he stood before her and held one beautiful hands within an inch of her ruby lips—his voice thrilled her as ke began to speak—yes, he was unmistakably a foreigner. "If you plase, mum, oid loike ye to put yer fare in that box."

It was his fare and not his fate he was seeking! Cruel denouement! But she gave him a nickle and realized again the truth of the poet's words': •'And things are not what they seem."

Who Wera the Mound Builders. Dr. W. De Haas, after a carcfui examination of the supposed connection between the "mound-builders" and the andont races of Mexico, ha3 oome to the conclusion that it does not exist. He considers that the former people were but little advanced beyond the modern Indians, but that they were different. In the discussion that followed the reading of Dr. De Haas' paper in the association, Judge Henderson objected to the term "mound-builder" as one that conveyed a false idea. There is no evide nce, he said, which will justify us in separating the ancient and, more modern races, not a single feature peculiar to the so-called moundbuilders. The speaker had started out in the study of American arohteology with the impression that these people were distinct and separato from the Indians, but he had been compelled by th® force of facts to relinquish the theory. It was improper to talk about these people as mysterious, for they were no more mystorious than tho Shawnees, the Natchez, the Tensas, and other tribes. The cloth found in their works was like that made by every tribe from the lakes to tho £ulf, even less fine than some, and their pottery was no better. In short, the speaker saidr in his opinion the mound-builders were the ancestors of the Indians.—Popular Science Monthly.^

The Man Who Took His Stand on tie Bible. The snow-storm had driven the debaters into the corner grocery, in consequence of which tho grocer prayed that the snowing might cease.

They were discussing Ingersoll and his peculiar views regarding the Bible. The proprietor had just replenished the fire with another scuttle of soft coal, and in doing so he gave vent to his feelings by making more noise than was necessary.

But the fat man who was whittlinj the soap-box was bound to be hei He didn't propose to be "muzzled. "No!" thundered he, as he pounded the head of the molasses barrel, "I dp not coincide in his views I stand on no other ground—I take my stand on tho Bible.

And the cross-eyed man on the cheesebox remarked, as he squirted about" a pint of tobacco juice on the stove: "You ought to stan' ofTn it some time just long enough to read a chapter."

.Eacs Proscription.

Chambers's Journal, usually a very liberal paper, lately said: ''Householders in London are plagued with showers of blacks. Alighting where they list, they intrude themselves into all, oven the best regulated dwellings. By ordinary arrangements you cannot keep out blacks. They come in by doors and windows. They disfigure the equipments of the drawing-room, and are execrated for their noxious presence everywhere. Blacks are the torment of London, worse even than the fogs, the typhoid emanations of the sewage, or the drinking water, which it might not be pleasant to analyze. We entertain the notion that they are endured as an incurable evil. They are no more to be averted than the east wind. Could not something bo attempted to exclude the blacks?" It may not be out of place to add that "blacks" is the Engwnrfl frrp

General Lew Wallace is not only a politician and author, but an artist as well. He is said to have painted an admirable portrait of his father and he has in his study a picture of historical interest. This is called "Ths Conspirators," and represents as sitting and leaning on marble blooks in an old Washington yard a group of men who plotted to kill Lincoln. The portraits were taken from life, the General having sketched the men in court during their trial.
