Some one called at the Express office yeterday afternoon with the statement that the William Cook who was lined by Justice Lockman for partaking too "freely of the flowing bowl, was not William'Cook, of Paris, who works at the Vandalia shops. While Parisians are famous for their indulgence in Terre Haute fire water, the sin in this erase was not laid at their door, and William need lose no sleep on that ac count.

Is lNistal Delivery ill Terre Iliiuto Success?

11 may be made a success provided the Department will double, or nearly double the number of carriers. With the limited number of seven it is impossible to have prompt delivery of letters to all parts of the city. On some of the cat-tiers there is imposed a burden too great to be endured in all kinds of weather. It is cruelty of a nature such as this groat and wealthy Nation of ours ought not to be guilty of. When it is known to all intelligent citizens that the Government is wasting millions upon millions upon various objects and schemes that it is over-liberal and lavish with its money in rewarding officials for very light and dubious services that it is" making appropriations of millions of dollars where none is needed, it does seem that it can afford to provide lib eraily in a city whose limits measure full two miles "by north and south, and the same by easiandwest, and containing a population of 80,000 of the most busy and enterprising of any in the State, with a postal delivery at every one of its business corners, and resident. streets within one hour of mail arrivals at the post ofliee. To do this, the department, must employ double, if not thrible the present number of carriers unlessthis can be speedily done 1 must pronounce the system a' failure, a beggarly, parsimonious failure. It is even worse than a failure. The morning is when business men want to receive their letters, many of theui at their places of residence'before leaving for office or business. They cannot afford to wait for the mail carriers until !*, and even 10 o'clock in the forenoon, as they now have to do. IIow many in such a city are anxiously waiting every day to hear from sick and dying friends? and this delay of delivering mail is cruel and unworthy of our Post Office Department. For "one, I say let there be.made a demand for a more pronvpt delivery or abandon it on the grou.nd that »"the Government is too poor to afford a better one. Every house and business place should have a postal box, and all postal matter arriving late in the evening and night should be put in that box by 7 a. m. So, too, on the arrival of aiiv important mail not over one hour should elapse before letters should reach every manufacturing establishment and nlace of business in the eitv. And this should be done without imposing a cruel service on the carriers.

Col. Millard, of the Indianapolis Car Works, is in the city. D. C. Caulkins, traveling agent of C., St. L. & N. O. Railroad, was in the city yesterday.

The total cost of the new I., B. & W extension was $3,500,000, which is about §25,000 per mile.

The Western road that will discard

lush seats in summer for split bamwill earn the eternal gratitude of its patrons.

Four car loads of Russian refugees passed through the city yesterday, en route for the farming lantls of Kansas and Nebraska.

Freight traffic on the railroads en tering this city is Increasing. A large movement of "new wheat is expected during the next few weeks.

Fourteen car-loads of Alabama wheat went East over the Vandalia road. This company received it from the Evansville & Terre Haute road.

The Cincinnati, Indianapolis, St. Louis & Chicago road in June earned $235,217, an increase over the earnings of the corresponding month of 1881, of SI 7,428.

The passenger earnings of the Indiana, Bloomington & Western road for June were $70,849.45, an increase of $6,535.37 over earnings correspond ingmonth, 1881.

D. B. Martin, Passenger Agent of the I. & St. L. and Bee Line at St. Loais, states that never before was eastbound business over all lines out of St. Louis heavier than this year.

Hunter's spark-arrester, which is being tested on the Vandalia, is working very satisfactorily. In a trip to Indianapolis thirty-six bushels of sparks were gathered into the sparkrecerver. Mr. Hunter has overcome the most serious trouble with sparkarresters, that of choking up.

The committees on invitation to the icnic to be held at Garfield Park, Inianapolis, under the auspices of the Indianapolis division of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, Julv 14, have been notified that representatives from the Peru, the Lafayette, the Mattoon, Terre Haute, Urbana and Galion divisions would be in attendance, and a big time is anticipated.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company, July 1, disbursed on dividends and interest $2,122,879, wlijfh was a larger sum than ever before paid out in one month for dividends and interest. The Philadelphia and Reading comes second, disbursing $1,500,000 the" Lehigh Valley third, disbursing some $600,000. The Railroad Equipment Company, secured by rolling stock, furnished the following railroads under car trust form: Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati & Indianapolis, Minneapolis & St. Louis, Houston & Texas Central, Cairo & St. Louis, Cleveland, Tuscarawas Valley Wheeling, Buffalo, Pittsburg & Western, Southern Central about $30,000. On this date over $10,000,000 was disbursed at Philadelphia to investors in all classes of securities.

An expert civil engineer who has recently passed over the constructed portion of the New York, Chicago and St. Lciuis road expresses surprise that it should have boen named the "nickelplate." indicating that it is thoroughly built. He expresses the opinion that the road has been built "to sell," the work on it by no means being substantial in character. For instance, the culverts and cattle-guards are built of plank instead of stones most of the bridges rest on pile work instead of solid stone abutments, and there are many other things he mentioned which indicate that in the haste to build the road cheap work has been done. He remarked that it was by no means so well built a road as the L., B. &. W. extension just opened for business.

Indianapolis Times: It is not unlikely that a surprise-is in store for some persons when the day of the sale of the Indianapolis & St. Louis railroad arrives. By a great many it is conceded that the Bee Line management will obtain the property without any great effort. In speaking of the sale a well-posted railroad man yesterday had the following to say to a Times reporter: "I believe that Mr. Jewett wants the 1. & St. L. to complete his system, and will be one of the bidders. Mr. Vanderbilt will not give more than he thinks the line is worth, and if Mr. Jewett's bid is the highest he will, of eourse^be the lucky man. It has been denied that Mr. Jewett wants the road, but this maybe for a purpose. In my opinion the Bee Line management will have to make a lively fight if they retain their present hold on the property."

The general ticket and passenger agents and local agents held a lr.eeting at the New-Denison House, Ir.dianap olis, Friday afternoon. All voads except the Pennsylvania liner, were represented. The. Bee Line by A. J. Smith, D. B. Martin and II. Pattison the Cincinnati, Indiana/polis, St. Louis & Chieago.bv John F,gan the I., B. & W. by W. II. Pro'nty the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Tjayton by Samuel Stevenson the "Wabash ly IT. Crane. The latter was ar.pointed "secretary of the meeting. 'The charges made against the age'nt of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati & St. "i.ouis lines at this point, of cutting rf.tes were sustained, and a resolution was passed that in so doing the agreement between the Indianapolis ros ds, had been violated, and that the p., C. & St. L. must redeem the tickets. A resolution of censure wasp assed upon II. R. Dering, secretary of the association, that he did not cal) a meeting when asked so to do by co"mpeting lines of the Pennsylvania ompanv. The meeting then adjourned to July 20th, that they might learn what action E. A. Ford, general ticket and passenger agent of the P., C. it St. L. and Vandalia Line, would take in the matter.

The Average Length of Life in Terre Haute.

The following interesting communication was read by Dr..J. T. Scoville before the Vigo County Medical Society at its regular meeting on Thursday evening last:

Terre Haute is situated in the "ague belt," is on the wrong side of the river, is not well drained, is thought of and talked about as an unhealthy city. While the sanitary conditions of "Terre Haute are by no* means perfect, facts show thai Terre Haute, as compared with other cities and towns, is by no means an unhealthy city.

Dr. William Fair, an English staticistian, gives 40.!:S years as the average length of life in civilized countries. That average length of life indicates an annual death rate of 24.40 of 1,000. Denmark has an annual death rate of 20.3 per 1,000, England and Wales of 22.4, Prussia of 27.2, Austria of 31.9, France of 24.4 per 1.000. Vital statistics are still verv imperfect in our country, but the death rate is thought to be not far from 24 per 1,000, for the whole country. This death rate indicates an average length of life of a little more than 40 years instead of 33 years which was tlie average length of life only a few years ago when the death rate was not far from 30 per 1,000. The cemetery records show that there were 405 deaths in Terre Haute during 1877, 353 during 1&'78, 467 during 1S79, 504 during 1SS0, 597 during 1881 and 208 during the first six months of 1SS2. Considering the population of Terre Haute as 23,000 in 1S77, 24,000 in 1S78, 25,000 in 1S79, 20,000 in 1880, 27,000 in 18SI and 28,000 lit 1SS2, the annual death rate in 1877 was 17.615, in 1S7S 14.75, in 1S79 1S.G6, in 1880 iy.40, in 1S81 22.11 and in 1882 14.93 or, during five an one-half years the average death rate was about IS per 1,000. This death rate represents an average life of over 55 years. This death rate is less than the general average in this or other countries, and indicates a longer average life. Seventy years—tl*ee score years and ten—is about the ratural span of life. Beyond seventy years people begin to die of. old age. Some people think

average of man, which would represent a death rate of a little more than fourteen per 1,000, but in this age of steam and gunpowder, we can scarcely hope for an average of over sixty years, representing a death rate of about 16.66 per 1,000. Dr. Edwin Chadwick, the great sanitarian of England, says that the death rate ought to be reduced to seventeen per 1,000. In 1878 the death rate in Terre Haute was only 14.75, and the average for 5 years" less than eighteen per 1,000. In" the light of the above facts is it jusi, to call Terre Haute an unhealthy city? Whilethe factsmake a good showing for Terre Haute the showing might be better. Good drainage, a systematic and efficient disposal of garbage, etc., a careful inspection of meat, milk, and other articles offered for sale for food, wouldreduce the death rate to the minimum, and make it one of the healthiest cities in the world.

Truth is mighty and will pervail when it comes to convincing people that the White Front is the best and cheapest place to buy groceries. It is pleasure to buy goods there, as not only Mr. Rippetoe but all his clerks are so polite and accommodating not only that, but you will always find the best and freshest table supplies this and the surrounding markets afford, also a line selected stock of staple and fancy groceries, teas, coffees and nilgai's.

J. P. Brennan, the merchant tailor, at (i'll Main street, is making to order cool Summer Coats for only $5.00 and owing to the lateness of the season, he has determined on a big reduction from his heretofore low prices. For a while he will sell his $10, $9 .and $8 Pants at $1.00 less, and the nice Suits he has formerly sold at $30, will now be made up for $25, and all other suits in proportion. These are the lowest prices such goods have ever been sold, and Mr. Brenan will certainly 3iave plenty of work for some weeks: to come.

A policy in this company costs no more than you would have to pay (on any good property) in some company you had hardly heard of except from their own statements shown to you by their agents. L. G. Hager will write you a policy when you wish to insure, as heisagent for the Hartford in this city. -r "i

Grain Trade of Buffalo.

Buffalo Commercial. The statement of the flour and grain trade of the port of Buffalo for the month of June does not furnish a very gratifying exhibit of the business. The decline in.the receipts by lake is general in flour and all kinds of grain, and for the month equals 50 per cent, of last year's movement. For the season to July 1st. however, the showing is better* the receipts aggregating 18,203,000 bushels in 1882, to 20,363,000 last year. The causes that have produced these results are too well understood to call for comment at this time. Speculation in grain at the West, whereby prices are forced beyond the point at which shipment can be made without loss, is the prime cause. The only en couraging feature of the lake transportation business is the large moyement of coarse freight. The receipts of lumber to July 1st exceed those for the corresponding period last year 14,000,000 feet. The shipments of coal to the West have also been very large, reaching 341,000 tons this year to 210,000 tons in 1881. The exports of grain to the East by canal aggregate 9,129,000 bushels this season against 9,676,000 last year. The receipts from tolls are reported at-$101,178, to $94,600, showing a gain of $7,000 this year. Bv this it appears that the canal has held its own under adverse circumstances better than the lake route.

A Somnambulist Bitten by a Moccasin. Home Letter In Atlantic Constitution. A man named Richard Meeler, living near Ridley's mill not far from Homer, Georgia, states that during the night lie had a dream, in which he thought there was a terrible storm rising, and tliat, for his safety, it would be necessary for him to go "down to the mill, some fifty yards away, and hide himself under the mill. There were a great many rocks, stumps and shafts of mill machinery under the mill, and while stumbling round under the mill, and near the water-wheel, he was bitten by a moccasin snake in several places on the foot. He then went into a lint-room, in the gin-liouse near by, and tied two handkerchiefs which life had in his pocket round the limb, one above the other, and started home. He thinks that he was awakened from his dream about the time he got back to the house. He then told the family that he had been bitten by a snake, but not to be alarmed. Dr. V. D. Lockliart came to his assistance, and he is now in a fair way to recover'. From the best information that can be obtained. Meeler is a steady, honest and withal a very intelligent man. His family say that he is in the habit of walking in his sleep frequently.

An Aged Millionaire's Wedding. Boston Globe. The social event of the season for Saxonville was the marriage yesterday of Mr. Michael II. Simpson, the well known millionaire and agent of the Saxonville Woolen Mills, and Miss Evangeline Mears, of Saxonville. The affair was very quietly conducted, at Mr. Simpson's residence, Rev. Lucius R. Eastman, Jr., the orthdox pastor of Framingham Center, assisted by Rev. A. T. Mason,x D. D., of Milwaukee, performing the ceremony. Mr. Simpson is seventy-two and his wife twentyseven vears of age. They intend to soon take a European tour, and left home yesterday afternoon on a trip West. Mr. Simpson has named one of his beautiful public parks in Saxonville "Evangeline Park," in honor of his wife, and is now constructing an elegant and costly summer residence in Wayland, overlooking Lake Cochit

uate, which the will occupy later.

An Enviable Reputation. It is with pleasure we allude to the manufactures ef the well known chemists, Joseph Burnett & Co., of Boston. They have won by their merits and attractiveness a place beyond that occupied by any other similar manufactured goods in this country.

Their Cocoaine for the hair, and a superior Cologne water, have become famous for their excellence.

In addition to these preparations are Burnett's Standard Flavoring Extracts for cooking purposes, and we cannot show better evidence of their superiority than by referring our readers to the testimonials of all the leading popular hotels in the country. These are published in Burnett's Floral HandBook, an attractive and valuable little pamphlet, which is distributed gratuitously by the trade.

All respectable dealers sell ^Burnett's select goods, and all lovers of choice things will .do well to buy them in preference to tlie cheap and impure articles now in the market.
