Somo one took six cans of oysters from in front of Mclntire & Doason's store, on Fourth street, on Mondaynight They forgot to pay for them, or leave any namo to which they could bo charged. Purely a caso of absentmindedness.

Albert Fiels, a young German, filod a statement before Justice* Meinmehl yesterday, which is to be forwaded to the German government, in order to secure a lengthening of his furlough from military duties. He does this to maintain hiB right to a portion of his father's estate.

It is not generallv known that Geo, Reiss, tbe North Fourth street druggist, takes considerable pride in his ability as a sign painter. A few days ago he commenced lettering the front of his store with an advertisement for a new brand of cigars. He progressed splendidly, and was beginning to be surprised at his own skill, when suddenly the blankest look imagineable appeared upon his face. He saw there would not be room at the end of the line for tho last letter. He just made a diminutive letter between two of the others, so as to have room for the last one, and remarked that such things happen in the life of every painter.

First Passenger.

The police board yesterday purchas ed of Dennis Hurst a Norman stallion, to pull the new patrol wagon Officer Cyrus Miller will he the driver in daytime, and Ofllcer Wm. Howard at night. The first use of the wagon was yesterday evening, when Mr. Lshman, of Eshman & Reese, telephoned for it, in order that a drunken indivinual named Ja^ies A. Stevens might be locked up. The handsome vehicle promptly appeared upon the scene, and Mr. Stevens was given a quick ride to jail. If he never obtains any other distinction, he will always have that of having been the first passenger in tho Terre Haute patrol wagon. The horse is a beautiful animal, a dapple iron gray, and cost $155. While he is not lacking in spirit, yet it is safe to leave him standing unhitched.

The Vandalia handled in the yards here on Monday 389 loaded cars and 175 empties.

Vandalia Engineer Geo. Irwin has been transferred from engine 13 to 145, which has just come from the shops, almost new.

Charley Owen, of the late lamented I. & St. L. uptown office, is now Ticket Aeent CooKerly's assistant at the Union Depot "Warren Sutliff, a Rock Island road conductor, attended his father's funeral. south of this city, and returned to his duties last Sunday.

Col. Hill, general superintendent, and James Chesbrougb, assistant passenger agent of the andalia, went to Indianapolis yesterday, where their presence will tend to the toning up of passenger rates.

Tvro passenger Coaches, which will be numbered 8 and 10, are being built in the "normals hool" of the "Vandalia shops. The inside wood»wotk will be of oak, and the head-lining will be of beautifully ornamented wood-work.

President Hervey says the Straight Line will this winter be completed from Oakland City to Washington, Indiana. The EvansVille common council has allowed additional time—to June 1st—for the building of the road into that city, as a previous condition to its payment of the $150,000 voted to the road. Mr. Hervey states that this can easily be done.

Vandalia passenger coach No. 12 is nearly ready to leave the paint Bhop. It was built he're three rears ago. Coaches 29, 31, and 36, will be ready for tho road about the first of next month. No. 5, is also being repainted and improved. The pay cay is in the coach-repair snop, and will soon make its appearance in the paint shop. Mail car No. 7 is also in the paint Bhop, and will come out handsomely retinished some time next week.

It will be seen that on Thanksgiving no empties were moved. Mr. Jones' idea in the changes which he is making in the I. & St. L. freight office is to get the various attaches separated into their proper departments. Heretofore several departments have been in one room, but this "happy family" plan is now a thing of the paajt. The south room of the first floor will be used by the yardmaster. Bill clerks go up stairs. The operator's room will be the one on the northwest corner of the first floor. Mi\ Jones, the agent, will retain his present quarters. A dumb waiter will connect the two stories.

The Vandalia yardmaster's office will be moved into tlie new quarters, at the corner of Thirteenth street and the Vandalia road, the latter part of next week. It is stated Mr. Lickert will make the place unusually nice, and is taking subscriptions for the purchase of an elegant organ, on which Vandalia brakemen, some of whom aro rare performers on that instrument, ckn while away the winter afternoons. Each man who is employed by tbe yardmaster will (not) be compelled to procure a photograph of nimselt, to be placed upon tnc walls. This will attract tho public in large numbers to see the photographs. It is not true that they will be sold at $5 apiece to visitors. Mr. Torrence, the operator, says that among other things he will insist upon Brussels carpet, The placo will present clegance in every feature.

GOOD WORK.

Terre Haute Detective Talent Xffeota tho Arrest of Two Men who Attempted to Wreck a Train at Emison Station, on the E. & T. H., Last Month.

On Saturday night, November 18, an unsuccessful attempt was made to wreck, at Emison Station, Knox county, the E. & T. H. passenger train which arrives in this city from tho south at-midnight. Rails were placed upon the track at that point sufficient to cause a fearful wreck, and had it not been for one of the fortuitous happenings which characterize railroading, the villainous scheme must undoubtedly have been successful, and accompanied by terrible loss of life and demolition of railroad property. The fortuitous circumstance referred to was this: A freight train, the tiino of which in arriving at Emison 'station was late in the afternoon, was delayed a number of hours, and reached the place at night, a short time before the time of the arrival of the passenger train. At Emison station there is a sharp curve in the railroad, and the freight, train going around this slowly, the engineer discovered the obstructions in time to avert disaster, and they were removed. Had this train passed the point on its regular time in the afternoon, the

Ceen

lan for tho wreck would not have discovered, and the passenger, which makes quick time,would doubtless have rushed on to destruction.

On or about the 20th of November, Detective W. E. Dwver, of this city, was employed by the E. & T. "H. company to work up the case and effect the apprehension and arrest of the guilty person or persons. Since that time he has worked tirelessly, receiving the benefit at times of points suggested by Ed. Vandever. On last Saturday, having secr.red facts pointiug strongly to two men—one McLaughlin and a man named George Boone—as the guilty parties, he went to Oaktown to arrest McLaughlin. When he had him in custody, the officer represented that Boone had also been arrested, and had made a full confession. Thiswa* believed by McLaughlin, who thought it would only

Then

the Satur

day on which McLaughlin was secured, proceeded to a spot four miles east of Emison Station, and arousing Boon* from his slumbers, between 9 and 10 o'clock, made him a prisoner, and brought him to Vincennes. Appearing in court, Boone plead notguilty, and his trial was set for next Friday, at 9 a. m., until which time the Judge will withhold sentence in the case of McLaughlin.

The success which has attended the young officer's work on the case is very flattering to him, and creditable to Terre Haute detective talent.

Dwver has filed informations in the KnoXcircuit court against the^two men.

The Transit.

As we go to press the day promises all that could be desired for witnessr ing the transit of

VeiiilB.

As the supply of smoked glass may possibly be exhausted, it should be known that a fine idea of the transit may bo had by holding a picce of pure white paper so that the sun's rays may fall upon it. As Venus passes athwart the sun a shadow will be seen slowly passing across the paper.

Everyone should take a peep at this seldom" obstructionist, as but few of us will be permitted to gaze upon tbe like again, the next transit occurring in 2004.

Tasted Kind o' Peculiar. Last Saturday a party of singers went from this city to Hoopeston, to give a complimentary entertainment for the Baptist church of that place. Among the number-were members of the Davis family, Prof. Carhart andothers. Arriving at Hoopeston, the elder Mr. Davis, the gentleman who sings bass, went to a drug store and got some bronchial troches, to dear his throat in preparation for singing at the entertainment. Returning, he passed the supposed troches around among the singers, and offered them to Prof. Carhart, who didpnot care about them. After while, however, he said he belioved he would try some of them, and the box was handed to him. Chewing ono of them a moment, he spit it out, remarking it had a very peculiar taste, unlike any bronchial troches he had ever seen. "Oh, they are the genuine thing," said Mr. Davis "eat them— thejrll clear your throat." "Let me look at that box," said the Professor. Mr. Davis very willingly handed it to him, and when he read the label, be could not contain himself, but tossed about his seat with successive bursts of merriment. The box contained worm lozenges. Tho druggist bad mado a mistake. The party of Terre Haute .vocalists had been innocently eating vermifuge. The joke was on the elderly bass, and on him badly. He said He could not appreciate it himself, but Mr. Carhart laughed enough for everybody.

"Hail to tho Chief."

lmmcdiatelv after the adjournment of the council last evening, Messrs. Phillips, Briggs and Dodson, comprising the fire committee, met and ap^ pointed I^iwrence Kretz, superintendent of fire alarm telegraph, as chief of the fire department with power to act during the suspension of W. K. Burnett. Mr. Kretz was notified at fire headquarters and tho appointment was telegraphed to the difforent houses, u'itn a rccord such as that possessed by "Larry" Kretz, after a service of nearly six years in the department, the committee could not liave made abetter selection, or one that would give more satisfaction to the citizens. Clear headed and cool, and with the respect of his subordinates, he cannot fail to bo a success. With the police force in charge of a practical policeman, and the faremen in charge of a practical fireman, Terre Haute is indeed well officered.

The big ob

servatories throughout the country are not to be allowed a monopoly in this rare eight, our amateur astronomers anJ photographers and the people in" general having made due preparations for thepassingshow. Mr. John Wilkes, who lias.long been interested in the study of astronomy, has a telescope of 175 magnifying power, and, should the weather favor, will take a number of instantaneous views of the transit, with the assistance of the proper photographic appliances. The method of taking the views is very simple. A focus ie taken onto the camera from the eye-glass of the telescope, on Which a diminutive reflection of Venus and the sun is made." In a photograph of tho sun one and a half inches in diameter Venus will appear on the sun's surface about the size of a pin-head.

Last Night's Balls.

The mssque ball given by the Pleasure Seekers, at Dowling hall, last evening, was not largely attended, though it was a very pleasurable affair. Musicians from the Ringgold band orchestra furnished tho mask.

Last evening, at Turner hall, was celebrated the first anniversary of the organization of the ladies' division of Turn-Verain. The admission fee was twenty-five cents, which paid for the supper and dancing. A section of the Ringgold orchestra gave the music. The attendance was strictly by invitation.

Poetry and Jewelry. J-S

"Rich and rare were the gems she wore." Thus sang Tom Moore in his matchless melody, and the train of thought brought forth is that valuable jewelry, etc., were so "rare" in Tom's time as to be worthy of poetical mention. Had he lived in our time, how enthusiastically could he have poured forth his poetic lays. Jewelry is manufactured In elegant styles at reasonable prices, and its use is "not confined to tne wealthy alone. H. F.
