CITY IX BRIEF.

Borneo and Juliet Saturday night. It is claimed that only two of the Blues played in the game at Marshall on Wednesday.

Margaret Mather, as .Tuliet, in Romeo and Juliet, at the Opera House Saturday evening,

St. Clair was not arrested at Covington, or anywhere else, the newspapers in this city being misinformed.

It was D. T. Rush worth who commanded the artillery in the sham fight of Wednesday, and not Capt. Iiuggles, as the Express stated..

A cat that partakes of the canine propensiticH, in the fact that it wags its tail and follows its master, is the property of a Bagdad boy.

Work on the sewer from the basin at the foot of Ohio street running east on Ohio to Sixth, north on Sixth to the alley between Main and Ohio, and then east through the alley to Seventh street, is being pushed rapidly.

The police are under instructions'to lockup all persons going about the city at night who can not give a satisfactory account as to their meandering, which is necessary owing to the number of crooks in this vicinity.

Yesterday a North End grocer threw a weight at a dog, but missed his mark, and disabled an old man from Maxville, stirring up the slumbering wrath of a bunion on his foot. lie executed several can-can steps, at the conclusion of which he wanted to fight, but the grocer had quietly vamosed.

Two children got into a wrangle on Eleventh street, between Mulberry and Eagle yesterday, and one of them ended the matter for the time by giving the other one a blow on the head with a hammer, which caused him to bite the dust. So, while the old veterans have been fighting sham battles, the small boys have got down to solid warfare.

Win. Stewart, of Hebb & Goodwin's job rooms, received a paiilful injury yesterday. In starting a Gordon press lie. placed his hand on the_ outside of tho fly-wheel, and gave it a push around, but failed to withdraw his hand in time to keep it from being caught between the wheel and the break below. The accident would have been avoided if he hadplaced his hand inside of the wheel whenstarting. Ilis hand was badly bruised.

Yesterday afternoon a young man named Wyetli Arlington struck an acquaintance near the distillery, in the eve and doubled him up so thoroughly that he disappeared in time to miss the second round. He had written some poetry about Arlington and his girl, which greatly incensed the latter. lie should rijake some imaginary damsel the_ subject of his next poem", as a poet with a black eye is as depressing as a funeral procession.

The residence of Dr. C. W. Russell, at Lockpoj't—the best in the neighborhood—was destroyed by fire about 2 o'clock yesterday morning. The house was valued at $0,000, and, with its contents, is a complete loss. The lire caught from the kitchen and is supposed to be the work of an incendiary. Two children, sleeping apart from the family, narrowly escaped being burned to death through the excitement, but were rescued in time. The house and goods were insured for $1,000 only.

D. Mitchell, Chairman of the Central Committee of Vigo County, for the Grand Tempentnc- Council of the Stale of Indiana, and Others:

GKNTLEMKX—Your letter of the 7th instant came to hand in due time, in which you ask me the following question: '"'If elected, will you take such steps as will secure the passage and submission of the prohibitory amendment to a vote of the pc.ople for their ratification or rejection?"

As one of the candidates of the Republican party for the Legislature, to represent Vigo county, I answer: If elected, I shall vote for tl'O proposed constitutional amendments to go to the people for ratification or rejection, believing that the people should vote directly on the change or amendment of their Constitution and, at the same time relying on that grand principle of free government, "That the source of all political power is invested in the people alone." 1 believe this to be the meaning of the Constitution. As legislators are the servants and not themastersof the people, and sis such should use every possible means to see that the will of the people is not thwarted, and the purity of the organic law of the State ispreserved.

I remain yours, respectfully, FRED. LEE.

Camp" Fire, at Dowling Hall Last Night and General Good Fellowship.

A large crowd witnessed the sham battle yesterday, and watched the varying fortunes of the contending forces with an excited interest. Captain Davis and his army charged gallantly and overwhelmed the enemy.

The drill by the McKeen Cadets was a splendid exhibition, and fully worthy of the best military company in the State.

The game of baseball between the Awkwards and the McKeen Cadet nine, resulted in an easy victory for the Awkwards. Following is the

Dowling Hall was well filled last night with wai veterans and citizens. Col. R. S. Robertson addressed the meeting, going over the campaign from the Wilderness to Spottsylvania. He had previously prepared his address, and it bore marks of the ability of its author.

General Malon D. Manson next held the attention of the soldiers, speaking feelingly and eloquently. His address included incidents of the war qiiuj other matters of interest tp the veterans. He was requested io give ap gpcount of the battle of Richmond, Ky., pji fhe 3pth of August, 1862, wnich he stated he could not do at present. J3e promr ised, however, to fovor his comrades with the account upon hie intended visit to Morton Post next fall.

The following dispatch was received yesterday afternoon, and was read to the meeting:

"DEAR COMRADES."—By the time this letter will reach you, I know you will have your hands and hearts full of work and preparation for the reunion. But I trust while in th3 enjoyment you experience again, and clasping hfipds, and hearts together as you meet con?-1 rades from all over the counties in our vicinity, that the "loved ones" we left "to sleep their last sleep" in Southern soil, may not be forgotten. My feelings have been stirred up as again I have looked upon the beautiful monuments erected by the people of this city to the memory of the Confederate dead. One of the monuments placed in ft conspicious position on the principal business streets of the city is fifty feet hi«li, costing $17, 000, and erected by the Women of this city. Another costing near $10,000 was erected by the Sunday school of a single congregation to the memory of the young men who went out from that Bchool and died for the Confederacy. They are the finest structures of the kind I have seen in any State so far North or South. I honor the people that have the pride, though a misdirected object in view, in erecting such memorials. The inscriptions, however, were painful to me, in that thev will be educators of generations to come after us. Declaring as they do, that these men "died for the honor of .the Sfate of Georgia, and for the principles of the Declaration of

Independence,^ 'l'hese people as we know were left in poverty by the Avar. With such monuments all over the South teaching the youth of our land a falsehood should it not bring the blush of shame to the people of Vigo county with her $28,000,000 of taxable property, that we have not a monument .completed to-day, that will teach oijr children that our comrades died for a •'Batfon.'?

Now, dear comrades, while SQ ipany of you are together in reunion, won't you make it the occasion for calling their attention to this matter. I suggest you issue an address upon the subject, and have several thousand copies peculated on the grounds and in the city,' It y/ill liejp bring public sentiment in our favor.' yould also suggest that contributions be asked for during the reunion for this purpose, and I believe yon can secure several liuudred dollars. Make an' appeal to the women of our city and county to help us. Surely the mothers and fathers with sons sleeping in a soldiers' grave far away from the "old h°nie," cannot remain unmoved in tliig matter. Yjgo is rich enough to afford it, and ought to give us for this purpose at least a thousand dollars for each million of her assessed value. WTith love for you all, and wishing you a joyful reunion, I am, ever yours, in F., C. and L.

THE TURNERS.

Regular Mpntlily Sleeting IiUst Evening. An interesting programme was given at the monthly ipeetipg of the Terre Haute Turn-Verein at Turner Hall last evening.

A debate on cofiee, touching upon its culture and elements, was participated in by the ladies and gentlemen of the society.

Prof. Stat/, gave a number of experiments in chemistry, accompanied by an interesting essay on that subject.

Mrs. Matilda Duenweg rendered an overture from the Opera of Martha, in a meritorous manner.

A selection from Rienza, by Wagner, was given by Master Ewalt Rieman.

Prof. Stafz, declamation, entitled The Tree of Life, was very interesting.

Walter, the Lost Son, a declamation by Mrs. Born, is worth any person's time, and was presented by that lad* in creditable style, "A Sane Body, a Sane Mind," is the motto of the Turji-Yerejn, and once in each month they meet for the improvement of mind by discussion, music, essays, and in various ways.

I" ''Two for One." Yesterday three men who were playing pool in Mr. Kugler's saloon, on the north side of Main street, between Eighth and Ninth, gave in some checks they had received on the game, in payment for drinks, and could not understand why two of them should only be counted five cents, the reason of which is that two glasses of beer are sold for a nickel, and each check is equivalent to one glass of the beverage. One man was rather pugilistic in hia demonstrations, and Mr. Kugler batted him over the head with a bottle, and finally put the three to flight.

Passenger train No. 3 (Cyclone) aiid No, 1, east on the Vandalia, yesterday, were packed with passengers.

The Vandalia shops were well represented at the Fair grounds yesterday, the attraction being the sham battle.

Mr. George Prescott, superintendent of motive power of the Vandalia line, arrived in the city yesterday from Logapsport.

It is p.assengpr, ipsteaji of freight, rates that are demoralized at Indianapolis on all the ro^ds leaving for the West.

There hap been no cutting of

rates at this ppjj]t. The Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad, has commenced the introduction of green flags and lights, in lieu of red flags and lights to designate sections following and the rights of the same.

Amos Parrisli, city passenger agent of the Vandalia Line at Indianapolis, was here yesterday. He is pasting the road and towns along the line for the Vandalia excursion to the State Fair, on September 27th.

The railroad officials here are not .qujtc so beautiful as those of the aesthetic .Chicago & Alton, but when it comes to talking up the merjts of their roads, they lay the C. & A. mashers completely in the shadp.

The Vandalia Line will run a special train to the State Fair, September 27th, with the fare for the round trip at the very low figure of $1.50. The train will "reach Indianapolis at 10 a. m. This is a great inducement to parties desiring to sec Indiana's Exposition,

President Cumnnngs, of tl)e "Nickel Plate" road, denies the rumor of the purchase of that road by Jay Gould. He says the road is in the hands of the men who projected the road, and who built it, not to sell but to operate, and that Gould does not own a dollar's worth pf stock in it.

Otto Redmitz, of the Vandalia blacksmith shops, took several of his blooded horses to the Fair Ground yesterday. They are beautiful prancers. He will not purchase Goldsmith Maid, as he thinks that he has a spirited animal that will be' able next season to distance that noted goer.

The unfortunate Oscar Wiley had intended to take membership in one of the railroad employes' benefit societies, but delayed the matter until too late. In cases of death $1,000 is the amount paid to the family pf a memr ber, and the benefits awarded in cases of injuries are liberal, and always promptly paid. They are honestly and successfully conducted, and answer all tlie purposes of other benefit associations.

The tickets to be issued by the Vandalia line for its excursion to the State Fair, September 27th, will be good going only on the special train, and good to return on all regular trains of September 27tli and 28th. The following is the fare for the round trip from the various points, and the time of departure:

By Associated Press. The Northwestern Business, CHICAGO, Sept. 21.—No formal meeting of the managers of tlie roads running between Chicago & St. Pan}, was held to-day, but a number of informal conferences were held during the day, and dispatches sent to the managers out of the city. The result was the drafting of a plan for the division of freight and passencer business which will be presented to the meeting to be held to-morrow. It is thought this plan will prove acceptable to all lines in the interest, and the treatened war to the Northwestern points will be averted, at least, until after the busy soason.

THE SOCIAL E^L

Increasing in the Prairie City—A Policy of Coercion for the Dens and Dives.

Boldness of a Prominent "Madame" Distributing Advertisements for Houses of Ill-Fame.

Old as the history of civilization is what is known as the social evil, the characters in which are the lewd men and women in every community. Men of thought and talent, high in position in the government of cities,- have introuced various policies for its suppression, only to witness after a time its filthy presence becoming more apparent and pernicious, and requiring some more effective method for its diminution. In the city of St. Louis a few years ago a socialevil system was adopted, licensing the houses of ill-fame, and subjecting them to medical inspection. That system has long since been discarded, and the. Christian and moral elements of the community, though alarmed at the spread of vice, are helpless to resist its encroachments upon morality.

In this city for several months past patrolmen have been under instructions not to arrest street-walkers except they were intoxicated or making themselves liable by obscenity or distprbance of the peace. l$ut thto nymb§r of fallen girls upon the streets, qf eyenings, frequenting the rear entrances of mari^ saloons to get drinks and going with young men whom they have captured about town to the little summer rooms with which some saloons arc provided, has increased with such rapidity that Chief Vandever, at police roll call last night, instructed patrolmen to arrest them whenever a case can be made against them. Officers are also at privilege to raid houses of prostitution without waiting for further authorization from the Chief. They will not all be nrrested in rapid succession, but at frequent intervals from this time on.

The most startling discovery in connection with this subject is the fact tjwt Madame Ca}hoiin, {hp proprietress of tlie dive raided on Wednesday night, had had cards printed with an advertisement of her place on one side and an obscene picture on the other. These cards were distributed to strangers by one of her girls, who took her post for this purpose at the foot of the stairway at 615 Main street. In view of this alarming evidence of the growth of the sociarevil, and the increasing' boTdhess of its devotees, will any one say that the subject should not receive the prompt attention of the better portion of society. In the trial of Mrs. Calhoun in the Mayor's Court yesterday morning she w^s ftsked by Chief VrtndeyeF what her qbject was in sending out the infamous cards, and replied, in that hard and deliberate tone characterizing depravity, "I suppose, Mr. Vandever, that I had an object, or I should not have issued .them!" She was informed by Mayor

Lyne that upon her next appearance in the Mayor's Court, charged with keeping a house of ill-repute, that the full punishment which the law prescribes would be visited nppn her—a fine of not more than $1,000 and imprisonment. •No administration can lose anything with the people by a policy of extirpation of this great evil. The respectability and Christianity in Terre Haute are startled at its boldness in open^ay.

The number of ranches in this city is greater than ever before. On Wednesday night a violent brawl occurred in si dep Spck of the Jaycocks low resort on Second street, since, which w°ri has reached Mr. Vandever of the frequent occurrence of similar outbreaks j'n that vicinity, disturbing and shocking citizens near the locality. For these, and various good and urgent reasons, the policy mentioned lijxs been adopted.

Jt is high time, indeed,, that some movement, clothed with authority and power, should be inaugurated in Terre Haute for the shielding of its rising generation from the destructive influences that pervade portions of the community.

A SPIRAL STUD.

Women Should bo Careful How They Throw Their Heads on Men's Shirt-Bosoms. Burlington Hawkeyc..

We see there has been a new shirt stud invented, which goes through tlie gimlet-hole in a shirt-bosom in sections, and snaps together, leaving the underside smooth, so that there is no raw selvage to "stick into a man's vital parts, the way there is the old spiral stud, and we look forward to the happy future when we can buy a set of the new studs and give the old spiral studs to the poorrwlio have no feelings to be lacerated. We have taught for many years that the "Government ought to call in tlie old spiral shirt studs and issue a new kind, with cou-

That.may he so to a certain extent, and they may suffer some, but they don't know anvthing abeut'the horrors of the spiral shirt stud. Many men go down to their graves, and never complain, who l\ave had their lives made miserable by spiral shirt studs. No man can be cheerful, full of fun and frivolity, and keep a cqjnpany li\ {i roar of laughter, whffi he is constantly reminded that three golden corkscrews are gently but firmly entering hir body from three different places that three different shows are getting in their work under one canvass at one price of admission, Jt is asking too much to expect a man to be entertaining when three artesian wells are being sunk in his person at once. Women do not mean to be cruel, and to cause unnecessary pains to man, but if they know how they send the quivering arrows to 1 careful limy t'luy 1

his very soul, in three plsippg, they wouldlbe careful how t'luy throw their men's shirt-bosoms, and roof

aroun a find an easy place to lay.

No doubt many of our hearers have noticed the men shrink from them when they lay their little darling heads on his breast, ape} h^vQ-tlipught the man waa shocked at their actions. It is "not iliat. It is the spiral shirt stud. Of course a man will stand a good deal, and not complain, under such circumstances, but if the women ih the case, or on the shirt-bosom rather, will look up into his fond eyes she will find there, beside a look of satisfaction, and don't-get-up-on-my-account expression, a far away, penetrating look, tliough his soul wiis on fire, or he had "been eating cucumbers. Women can have no idea of the sacrifice man makes, in such cases, and they should not be surprised if he faints away. Other things in the world may cease, but the boring of the spiral stud never ceases, We have known a preaplier to get a vacation of six months, with a trip abroad, because he took sick, when all in the world that ailed him was spiral shirt studs boring into liiip, though in this instance there was no female head actting as a screw-driver to drive them in. He would preach a sermon on faith, and look sick, as the studs went into him, and the congregation would pity him, think it was his liver, and raise money enough to send him all over the world, Oh, the spiral stud has done much to demoralize the world, and it should be suppressed.

No Property in Thought.

October Atlantic. What assurance can one have, as a savant, that .the dawn of his discovery is not, at the self-same moment, shining in at another's window, with equal illumination and promise? How can the poet be sure that lie is enjoying an individual afilatus that the muse is not flattering another suitor with the same show of favor? How can tlie writer of fiction be sure that the work which lie is preparing will not encounter its double on its way to the publisher, or be pushed to tlie wall as the feebler and less promising twin? It would seem that the personal types, imbroglios, episodes, and denouements of fiction are in the air, Though one should lay the scene of his novel in Ternate and Tidore, or at the North Pole, geographical remoteness is no security against infringement. It is clear that we must make haste to utter our thought, or we shall be anticipated by some one else, after Which all effort on our part will be unreasonable and superfluous. It is not safe to defer one's brightest and best inspirations. I speak frpm unhappy experience. How often has it happened that, while I put off harvesting and gathering, waiting for an idea to ripen more fully, there came a brownie in the night-time who reaped and carried off the harvest! For instance, if-1 ever hoarded up a choice theme for a poem, confident of my sole proprietorship in a fancy so delicate and elusive, what was my amazement (and chagrin) to see, in the pages of some periodical, my fantastic property spirited away by a more prompt and happy genius! Again, if I chanced upon what seemed to me the elements of a fine essay, and did not at once take the work in hand, but waited for the crude material to crystalize, how was I punished! Nemesis quietly handed me a marked newspaper, or a book with a leaf turned down, in one of which I beheld my essay, with all its telling illustrations, its brilliant tropes, irrefutable reasons, its pertinent quotations,—all, to the last grain of Attic salt which seasoned the whole mass! My essay, but another had written it another's impertinent name was subjoined. When the lax and crooked laws relating to international copyright shall have been so straightened and strengthened as to require no further agitation and legislation, perhaps some benefactor of his kind will devote himself to securing the ideal and impalpable property of authors giving them copyright on their thoughts.

Pope Leo.

Church Progress (Marshall, 111.) Pope Leo XIII. was born of patrician parents, at Carpimento, in the Diocese of Anage, Italy, Marcli 2,1810. He was educated in the Roman College and in the Academy of Noble Eclesiastics In Rome. Ih 1837 Gregory XVI. gave him a prelature, and in 1843 he was sent as Nuncio to Brussels. In 1S46 he was preconized Archbishop of Perugia, and in 1853 crcated Cardinal by Pius IX. The conclave of six-ty-one Cardinals elected him Sovereign Pontiff February 22,1878, by for-ty-four votes, on the third ballot. In no proceeding conclave was there so great a number of electors, and in few was the election so rapidly decided. It lasted only two days. The Pope chose the name of Leo on account of Leo XII., for whom he always had a reat regard. He was crowned in the Jistine Chapel, on March 28tli, not in St. Peter's, as usual, because of the occupation of Rome by the Sardinian

Josh Billings on Courting. Courting is a luxury, it is a sallid, it is ise water, it is a pla spell of the soul. The man who has never courted has lived in vain he has been a blind man among landscapes he has been a deff man in the land of hand organs ami by the side of murmuring canals. Courting is like 2 little springs ov soft water that steal from under tlie fut ov a mountain and run down hill side by side, singing and dansing and spattering each uther, eddying and frothing and kaskading, now hiding under bank, now full ov sun and now full ov shadder, till bime-by tha jine and then tlia slow, I am in favor ov long courting it gives the parties a chance to find out each uther trump cards it iz good exercise, and iz jist az innersent as two merino lambs. Courting iz like strawberries and cream, wants to be did slow, then you git the flavor. I hav saw folks -git acquainted, fall in luv, git married, settle down, and git tew wurk in three weeks from date. This is jist the wa sum folks lam a trade, and akounts for the great number of mighty mean mechannicks we hav, and the poor jobs tlia turn out.

It is with pleasure we allude to the manufactures of the well known chemists, Joseph Burnett & Co., of Boston. They have won by their merits and attractiveness a place beyond that occu-pied-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.
