The Evansville Journal eays Congressman Toin Browne is mentioned as the successor of Senator Yoorliees.

Cincinnati has outdone all other citing in its opera and music festivals, but not content with tl.at is now surpassing the oldest inhabitant's memory as to floods.

The Illinois legislature is discussing the high license question, the fee being put at §300 for beer selling, and $1,000 for whisky selling. It is not a party question, parties being about equally divided in supporting and opposing the measure.

St. Louis raised over $300,000 Saturday toward the proposed exposition and music hall building. That is very good, but down in Cincinnati wealthy gentlemen are in the habit of drawing their checks for such amounts to give to music hall3 and libraries.

The first sentence for attempted su. icide under the new code of *e.v York lias just been passed. A man who, afler being arrested for drunkenness, was found hanging in his cell, but cut down in time to save his life. He plead drunkenness bul the judge gave him one year in the penitentiary.

That must be a queer legislature out in Colorado. Its legislation is about as astounding as its selections of senators. The (ilobe Democrat snvs: "The latest exhibition of crankiness is the passage of a law excluding foreign express companies from the railroads of the State—a law, by the way, which will be overthrown when it tets into the courts. And then somebody interested in the defeat of Denver's new charter stole the precious document from the secretary of the senate, hoping thereby to obstruct or prevent its adoption."

The Indianapolis Journal referring to the rumor of the effort to unite the State University, Purdue University and the Normal school in a grand University at Indianapolis says: "In order that there may be no mistake about this matter in any future discussions let it be understood that the Journal does not favor the consolidation of the state schools and their location in Indianapolis. A person or paper may be in favor of the consolidation without favoring the location of the consolidated institution lit this city. At least that is the position of the Journal."

If the creditors don't want to accept the 50-!! compromise their bonds can "rot," is the notice the Nashville Banner serves upon the bondholders of Tennessee. A member of the legislature puts it in still more classical language and tells the bondholders that they can take what they can get or "go to h—11." The Nashville American piteously begs the creditors to yield. It says: ''We hope that the bondholders will accept this tender, from the very bottom of our hearts, for if tlicy do not God only knows where and how it will end. If they do accept it, we feel assured—ves, we know—that it will be faithfully and honestly carried out by the state to the letter."

The Woman's Silk Culture Association, of Philadelphia, is a purely philanthropic society which hopes by making known the possibilities of a new industry to increase a multitude il small incomes. Some of the results .if its efforts will be shown on February 21 at St. George's hall, in Philadelphia, when premiums amounting to S500 will be awarded for the best examples of silk culture. More than thirty competitors from eleven States, will lie represented. The association has been somewhat annoyed by being confounded with various other silk culture enterprises of a purely business character, which may be entirely reputable ami which it has no desire to antagonize, but for whose rather speculative estimates ol prolit and cost it dees not wish to be held responsible.

loes our worthy neighbor, the Mail, realize that it has possibly set the town to discussing the great question of dan -ingand itsrelations to the church? A week ago the Mail mentioned that at a social mooting of members of the ('oiiiireiraiional church dancing was indulged in, and that the pastor joined in the exercise, concluding by asking "whither are we drifting?" This no doubt was innocently intended, as innocent as was the dancing of a"Viiginia ivc!" by the worthy pastor, hul now comes the Gazette with a three-column report of the pastor's subsequent sermon on "a common sense view of amusements" and an editorial sustain-

HOW THEY LIKED IT.

A I.etter from One of the tady Visitors to the Normal School in Kagnrd to tjie Reception of the Delegates from Indianapolis. Special Correspondence of the Express.

INDIANAFOIIS, Feb. 9.—Terre Haute has long enjoyed the reputation of taking high ground in the matters of education and of hospitality to the strangers who are so fortunate as to find themselves within her gates, which reputation she fully sustained in her entertainment of the members of the legislative educational committees and their friends, who visited the state normal school on Thursday. Our welcome was fully assured when Mayor Lyne boarded the train at Greencastle and extended greetings to every one after being introduced by Representative Schloss. Much praise is due to Mr. Schloss, Senator Bichowskv, Judge Mack, General Cruft, Mr. Nevitt and the other attentive members of the committess on reception and entertainment, chief among which was Mr. John Reagan, who was indefatigable in his efforts to please and to make comfortable all the guests. He received a continual round of praise from the ladies, which statement is calculated to make his bright eyes sparkle with an added degree of brilliancy. Mr. Albert Kelly was conspicuous by his absence, and many regrets were heard in consequence. Although the committee went not there to talk, President Brown, in his gentlemanly, quiet way, drew out some happy speeches, which were noticeable and interesting on account of their variety and vivacity. At the same time sincere, friendly feelings held, were expressed in behalf of the most been

worthv institution within the borders of the'state. It is a self-evident proposition that the highest type of American manhood or womanhood culminates in the elements which constitute a cultivated Hoosier, and looking to this end Indiana should be as much ashamed to iv -l.v-t Por state normal school as a p. \\. a competency would be ashamed to neglect to clothe and feed his own offspring in a proper manner.

The design of the noble hearted donors was to litt the standard of the teachers of Indiana's children to a higher plane, and could the standard of education be raised too high for the people of.Indiana? There is probably in the mind of every mechanic the elements of his trade in a chaotic state, and yet no man wonld assnme to become a carpenter, or a shoemaker or a blacksmith or a printer, without first receiving the proper training. How much more important then, that the educators of our children should receive the most skillful training, and to this end the encouragement of normal schools is essential. A visit to the laboratory of the school in Terre Haute ought to convince any »ne that the additional two thousand dollars ought to be offered with averted heads rather than that sum should have to be so earnestly solicited. The make-shifts in the way of apparatus is sufficient to remind one forcibly of the limited means of Palissy, the porter, and although common sense and science— the combination which is said to represent the highest type of intelligence— may have gone hand in hand together a little way along the rugged and weary road of learning now to teach the children of Indiana, Common Sense must have left her companion far in the rear in her efforts to surmount formidable and forbidden obstacles. To be woven in with the web and woof of childhood's happy life is an exceeding great reward, but to furnish the means to assist in doing this is more commendable, will be better appreciated, and will be altogether more tangible.

The fact that two such untiring workers as Mr. Philip Schloss and Senator Biscliowsky are determined to do all within their power for the State Normal school makes one confident of success, as these gentlemen have already shown themselves worthy of the confidence of their constituents in matters of judicious legislation, among which it is recorded that they voted against the amendments on their merits, and also from a legal standpoint.

Long may Terre Haute and her kindly, hospitable citiaens flourish and prosper, and may her modest requests in behalf of a worthy institution be readily granted. M. L. A.

1»R. PIERSON HUMILIATED.

Be Feel* Ashamed to be the Successor of Henry Ward Beecher. Indianapolis News.

Dr. Pierson created a profound sensation yesterday evening during his Bible readings, and the circumstance will be remembered as one of the features of the union meeting, fie was speaking of the duties of pastors to their congregations and the relations that should be sustained. After pointing out the inevitable inconsistency of a portion of the flock', he referred to the apostasy among ministers, and declared that the church must be bold to protest against the invidious undermining of the Bible on the part of professed believers. He riveted the attention of the large audience by a direct application of his thought to Henry Ward Beecher, and lamented the fact that Christian people were carried away bv the slosh of that learned gentleman's dissertations. Continuing, and referring to Mr. Beecher's lecture the other night in this city and to its doubtful orthodoxy, Dr. Pierson said: "I felt ashamed to have such grand doctrines as the inspiration of the holy scriptures and such awful truths as the final punishment of the ungodly travastied and held up to ridicule, and I felt especially humiliated that I should be the successor of that man as pastor of the Second Presbyterian church." Here the audience broke out into unrestrainable applause, showing that Mr. Beecher's lapse into doubtful religious tenets has not* met the unqualified approval of his old Indianapolis friends.

Dr. Pierson afterward privately reasserted the above strong opinions, and was warmly congratulated by many of the prominent ministers for his bold stand.

How Coburn Bested Sullivan. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. John L. Sullivan, the "slugger," has had a little disagreement with Joe Coburn, hfs most recent partner in the sparring business. This is not surprising, for Sullivan's intellect is in inverse proportion to his physical development the brute predominates in him, and it is next to impossible for anybody to retain his friendship. In an interview he ie reported as saying: "I know what I am talking about when I say that if Joe Coburn is a fair example of the scientific boxers of his earlier career, they must have been a poor lot, for a worse or less scientific sparrer than Coburn it would be hard a ii A A to find. In fact, he is very bad." A gentleman who witnessed a set to between Sullivan and Coburn at Buffalo, states that "the slugger" made a miserable showing against his skillful op-

ty that he was a complete the situation. In three rounds Coburn did not receive a square blow, while he tapped, parried and countered Sullivan with sueh ease and certainty that the exhibition was entirely one sided, and created a general impression that were Coburn a few years younger he could whip Sullivan without ever getting hit. That Sullivan will be easily vanquished by the first clever big man that meets him, was the judgment of good sparrers who were present.

Miss Quinlan's Friends Weep Over the Remains of Sirs. Graham. New York World.

Miss Lizzie Quinlau, aged twentysix, died inward 28 Bellevue hospital on Sunday night, and Mrs. Mary E. Graham, aged twenty-four, of 2 Marion street, died in ward 20 on Monday morning.

As the coffin had not opened, the mistake was

not discovered. At the conclusion of the funeral service a telegram was received from A. N. White, keeper of the Morgue, requesting the relatives of Miss Quinlan to send back the remains.

Death of ex-Governor Marshall Jewell— Charles B. Thome Quits Life's Stage —Other Obituary Item*.

HARTFORD, Conn., Feb. 10.—Hon. Marshall Jewell, chairman of the Republican national committee, who has been ill with bronchial pneumonia,died at his home here this evening.

Mr. Jewell was born at Winchester, N. H., October 20,1825. He was the son of Pliny Jewell, a noted leather tanner. Mr. Jewell was bred a tanner, and followed this vocation until he had completely mastered the business. He was in early life interested in the construction of telegraph lines in the southwestern states. In 1850 he began, in company with his father and brothers, the manufacture of leather belting in Hartford, and during the war branched off" in the making of knapsacks, of which he furnished a great number to the United States. In 1869 lie was elected governor of the state of Connecticut, and re-elected in 1871 and 1872. In 1873, under the administration of President Grant, he was minister plenipotentiaryand envoy extraordinary to the court of Russia, from which position he was recalled in the spring of 1874, and arrived in Hartford in July of the same year. Shortly after his return from abroad he was appointed postmaster general by President Grant, and, on bis resignation of the position and return to Hartford, was received with a military and civic pageant, surpassing anything heretofore held in this city. In 1880 he was chosen chairman of the Republican national committee, which position he held at the time of his death. At his decease he was president of the Connecticut Telephone company, and director in a number of Hartford's large financial and insurance institutions. He was special partner in the large dry goods establishment of C. H. Root & Co., of Detroit, Mich., where he was also interested in the lumber trade.

Mr. Jewell was a man of unusually attractive personal Appearance and striking presence. He was very charitably disposed, and relieved many suffering people in an unostentatious manner. In public charities he was always prominent and subscribed liberally. In politics he was a thorough, consistent, reliable Republican, and spent his time and money lavishly to promote its success. His funeral will be held from his residence on Farmington avenue, on Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. He leaves a widow and two daughters.

Mr. Jewell contracted a severe cold while in New York on business connected with the national republican committee, which, however, caused no apprehension until within a few days, when symptoms of bronchial pneumonia developed and assumed alarming proportions. Dr. Curtis, a resident physician, expressed a desire' for consultation with Dr. Loomis, of New York, who is authority in cases of this nature, and he arrived here at midnight Friday. So alarming were the symptoms that the family telegraphed for his daughters, who reside in New York and Detroit. For the past two days Mr. Jewell's condition was considered very critical, and during the day his death was hourly expected. Mr. Jewell realized his condition, and retained his faculties to the last, giving orders with remarkable clearness. He was also a heavy stockholder in the Evening Post association, the leading Republican evening paper in Connecticut. Governor Jewell died at 9:55 p. m.

Chnvles K. Thorne.

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.—Charles R. Thorne, jr., the well known actor, died at 4 o'clock Saturday morning, at his home, No. 67 Union place. He had been confined to his bed with gout for the last five weeks, but the immediate cause of his death was hemorrhage of the lungs. Mr. Thorne was forty-four years of age and was a native of this city. His father, Charles R. Thorne, who is still living, was formerly an actor of repute and has been a theatrical manager in various cities, while his brother, Edwin F., and his sister, Emily, have also won notice on the stage. Charles R. Thorne, jr., became an actor early in life and at the Olympic theater was admired for the manly strength and beauty of his tall figure. Improving in his art he received deserved praise for his performance of leading parts in the emotional drama. From 1874 until less than a year ago he was a member of the Union Square Theater company.

A NEAT SPEECH.

Major General Fitzhugh I.ee, of Virginia, WM Given A Dinner In New Tork A Few Day* Since.

The.guests and entertainers sat down to dinner at 9 o'clock, and it was nearly two hours later when Colonel Austen, alluding pleasantly to the visit of the regiment to Virginia at the time of the Yorktown celebration, called upon General Lee to respond to the combined toast of "Virginia and Our Guests." General Lee, who \yas received with three cheers and the regimental tiger, said in part: "I am glad to see you all to-night and to remember that such a meeting extends in its influence far beyond to-night. I am glad that we can meet in peace and harmony, and not as citizens of New York and Virginia but as Americans equally interested in the success of this country, which, as some one has said, is bounded on the north by ice and on the south by bananas, and whoever tried to enter it from either end is apt to slip up. We are all alike equally interested in seeing it healthy, prosperous and peaceful. We recollect the bitter feelings that existed after the war was over, when each party had thoughts of those who were lost in that contest, but time is a great healer, and the thoughts of both sides are better understood now. Those of the north were then of the opinion that the union could not be divided, and we are now beginning to think that there is something in thatopinion. Why, when the United States senators from this state, for some reason, resigned two years ago, we remembered how the other contest had begun, and we were afraid that New York was going to secede. So our militia in Virginia began to look up their muskets and •words to protect the union." [Laughter.]

Solid Milk.

New York Sun. To make condensed milk, the milk is subjected to a heat of some 230 degrees, which, it is said, scalds it. By a new process, the heat is only about 130 degrees, and the product is called evaporated milk. When the time of exposure to that moderate heat is sufficiently prolonged all the watery part of the milk is driven off, and the remnant is a tough, solid mass, creamy Avhite in color, and much resembling a dried chunk of white flour dough. That is granulated by artificial means a little fine white sugar is added to make it keep, and then it looks like corn meal, and is called granulated milk. The evaporated milk is only about half as near solid as condensed milk, but is very rich, and so little affected by the process through which it has passed that when water is added the most delicate taste cannot detect the difference between it andjpure natural milk cream rises on it and butter can be made from it. The granulated is made to keep in all climates for any desired length of time.

A Funeral on the Run. Tlie other day at Pittsburg, I'a., when a funeral cortege was going to the cemetery, one of the carriages in front stopped to make some trivial change in the harness. The driver of the vehicle immediately in the rear failed to check his horses in time and ran into the halted corriage. The result was that the horses attached to the latter became frightened and started to run away aad soon started every animal in the cortege in a break-neck flight. Numerous carriages, wagons and other vehicles were overturned, and the whole funeral procession reduced to a wreck of its former uniformity. Men ejaculated, women shrieked and many occupants of vehicles were thrown out. When order again came from the chaos, it was discovered that aside from the wrecking of a few carriages and some bruises inflicted upon their occupants, no damage was done.

Five Hundred Cats at a Funeral. Warren (Va.) Sentinel. Many years ago there lived in this part of "Virginia an old gentleman named Shumato, whose "antipathy to cats was so great that he made it a business to kill every one that he could find. At his death cats collected to the number of 500, and attended the funeral in procession, aud afterwards quietly dispersed to their homes, where they spent the remainder oi their lives in peace, their great enemy being dead. This remarkable circumstance is still remembered by some of our oldest citizens.

Letter From a Traveler.

KANSAS CITY, MO., Sept, 20, 1882.

I think it a duty I owe to humanity to say what your remedy has done for me. One year ago I contracted a bad case of blood disease, and not knowing the result of such troubles, I allowed it to run on for some time, but finally applied to th« best physicians In this city, who treatod me for six months. In that time I took over 600 pills of protoiodide of mercury, 34 grain each, and had run down In weight from 210 to 157 pounds, and was confined to my bed with Mercurial Rheumatism, scarcely able to turn myself in bed. Being a traveling man, some of the fraternity found nie In this deplorable condition, and recommended me to try your spe-^^-^Mp-^mc^^^al cases cillo. ggi had thej- fcnew^^^^^^^^^^Bbeen curof se ed by Its use. I commenced tfie use of it with very little faith, and in less than three weeks was able to take my place on the road. The sores and copper-colored spots gradually disappeared, and to-day I have not a sore or spot on my person, and my weight is 217 pounds, being more than It ever was. ldo not wish you to publish my name, but you may show this letter to any who doubt the merit of S. S. fi., for 1 know it is a sure cure.

Yours truly, J. H. B.

Some thirty years ago there lived In Montgomery, Ala., a young man who was terriblv afflicted. After being treated for a long time by the medical profession of this town with no benefit, lie commenced takingH.S.S. After persistently taking it two months, he.was cured. Being acquainted with him fort wenty years thereafter, I can testify that the disease never made its return.
