The gang is now making use of the hobby ot Dooley, of the Indianapolis Herald, to get control of the Express, and ho is giving space in his paper to personal villification and the spreading of slander and lies. The animus of all this will be very plainly seen when it is made known that Dooley's efforts to get possession of the Express were sadly futile. The gang knew it, and is using him in an attempt to divert attentiop from the practices which the

1

Express has been exposing.

The Indianapolis Newa says: "The vaults in the state treasury have been t.finally prononnced by experts, neither *j fire nor burglar proof. The governor S has thereupon notified to the auditor

rtuid

treasurer this defective condition, and, as required by law, directed that the vault be made safe and then, as required by law, the treasurer must keep the state's moneys therein. Is all this but a "tub to the whale," or is the law to be enforced It is something the people of Indiana should know."

When President Jarrett, of the Amalgamated Association, was testifying before the Senate Committee, he Baid the press of New York was subsidized by a large combination of capital and that it was bought up by capital from abroad. We hopo and think Jarrett is talking without sufficient information. The New York daily pa•pprs, finding a patronage among impol^tiers are free trade organs, but we do noTtlitlikasy such sweeping statement will hold water. Senator Blair at the same time remarked that all proceedings of the committee which did not bear out the views of the New

York papers were suppressed.

In the daily record of crimes none appear more frequently than the brutal murder of women and children accompanied by sickening details of an atrocity that would blacken even the malign names of the mutinous Sepoys who filed the well at Cawnpore with the mangled bodies of the English ladies and their children. From every ^section of the country come the reports of lustful, barbarous deeds that seem impossible in a civilized nation—impossible that beings so brutal can exist, that commit them—still more impossible that the criminals can hope for immunity from a fearful vengence.

Perhaps in no quarter are there

more

events of the kind than in New England at least there oocur many sensational and aggravated cases. The last atrocity in Connecticut a few days ago is a repetition of many before. A young, beautiful woman,

Boon

to be married,

engaged in planning and fitting her future home, parted from her lover and a few hours after was found dead and mangled on a busy, public road very near the home of her friendfc. Very naturally it is stated that "the greatest -excitement prevails and if the perpetrators of the crime--are arrested they are likely to be dealt with summarily."

If summarily arrested the perpetrators would be summarily dealt with, but if not and the law's delays serve to drag the slow case along the victim's poor ghost may never be laid by the law's award. Note here an anomaly which is as common as it is outrageous. In many cases the prosecution to obtain damages or to convict a criminal in the ,, class of outrages alluded to exposes the injured party to double outrage. The most injured woman, .even timid, shrinking children are blackened in character by the defendants' lawyers in the attempt to save the worthless neck of some 'crafty seducer, some vicious butcher.

We are confident that many damning deeds are concealed by shrinking sufferers who dread the uncertainties of the common jury, the aspic tongue of a venal lawyer, and the exposure of disgrace, unmerited though it be, to ^the gaze of the curious public.

There are those who condemn the publication of the revolting crimes which so frequently burden the newscolumns.

Where is the remedy for the crime and licentiousness that are so intimately connected with the boasted civilization and refinement of this Christian age Law limps lamely behind the sentiment of the community. 'It is the indulged servant, not the pleader, of our convictions. We ibelieve in pouring into the ears

/J •a***

dSa

of the people the evils that blot our day and generation until the people look for a remedy. We will not condemn the burst of vengeance that executes the sentence the law weakly withholds. We hope for the day when legal ethics will not require or allow the advocate to endeavor to blast the reputation of a claimant to save a notoriously vile client and for chivalric judges who can rule for weak women against debauched manhood. Far more dangerous men walk our streets than the witless youth who swung at Rockville, more dangerous because corrupting youth and weakness, watching for defenseless victims skulking under cover of law, or the guises of religion and gentility it maybe or openly profligate and reckless. Citl •ens, when offences come, take to yourselves much of the blame!

THROUGH THE RAPIDS.

A Hf inltnre Maid of the MUt Sent Through the Whirlpool Below Niagara Falls.

The New York Herald's Buffalo special says: The imitation of the old steamer Maid of the Mist was sent through the whirlpool rapids below Niagara Falls this afternoon in the presence of 10,000 spectators. Excursions were run on all railroads centering at the falls, both from the States and Canada. There was much criticism on acccunt of the whole affair being turned into an advertising medium. It is said that the scheme was gotten up for the benefit of the hackmen and hotel-keepers, but the advertising privilege of the boat was bought by a patent medicine dealer of Lock port. The little craft was rigged up to representthe original Maid of the Mist, which was piloted safely through the rapids in 1861. At 8:20 p. m., Buffalo time, the boat was towed out into the stieam and cut loose at about the point where Captain Webb started on his fatal swim. She went swiftly down the stream and when reaching the rapids was dashed abont like a small boat in a rough Bea, but kept her course safely through, careening and turning around several times. She reached the whirlpool in about three minntes from the time she struck the rough water. Then she floated, around and gradually worked to the f!qna/iian shoir, remaining in the whirlpool about twenty minutea. After reaching the shore she was secured and her flags taken off, after which she was pushed out into the stream, and floated down the river some distance when she was taken in tow by someboys and tied op at the Lewiston dock.

PASTOR AND PEOPLE.

The Sunday School Lesson for To-morrew—Sabjeot: "Bath and Naomi."

THE SUNDAY SCHOOEI

Lesson for September 9—Subject: Both and Naomi—Bath I., 14-83.

The book of Rath, giving the story of the beautiful Moabitess who proved so faithful in love and friendship, is one of the most poetical in the Bible, It is the simple story of a young woman, bat so touching in detail, showing a character so pure and lovable, that no reader but can be fascinated by it. The story is aimply this: A family of Bethlehem, consisting of Elimelech, his wife Naomi, and two sons, Mahlon and Chilion, were driven from home by famine, and took refuge in the land of Moab, a country east of the Dead Sea. Here Elimelech died. The two sons having married, also died, leaving their wives, Ruth and Orpah, childless. Naomi continued to live with her daughters-in-law in tbe land of Moab, until at the end of ten years, homesick for Bethlehem, she determined to return. She exhorted her daughters-in-law however, to remain in their native land, and after some persuasion Orpah kissed her good-by and turned back but Ruth, in her great love for the mother of her husband, refused to leave her, and made that beautiful resolution, "Whither thou goest I will go, and where thou lodgest I will lodge thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God where thou diest I will die, and there will I be buried." To understand the full significance of this vow, and how much Ruth was giving up for her friendship and love, one must understand that the people .of Moab worshiped idols, and not the God of Israel. Ruth, from her childhood had been taught in this idolatrous religion, but since her marriage with Naomi's son she had heard of the one true God of Israel. This was her home, and here lived all her people. To go with Naomi she must give up home, friends and religion, the three dearest things to the heart of every one. She cheerfully left all to follow her aged mother-in-law.

It is not often one sees such friendships as this between two people of the same sex. We find men and women in their love abandoning everything for each other, but not so two men or two women. There are such cases, though they are rare, and this is one of them, and that of Jonathan and David was another. All self-interest would lead these people to be rivals, but self-interest could not overcome friendship. Napoleon said, "A faithful friend is the true image of Deity and Christian teachers in all ages have recognized in the attachment of Ruth and Naomi a type of the attachment between the disciples and Christ. And in our admiration for such a character as that of Ruth it is pleasant to remember that she was a direct ancestor of Christ. She became the wife of Boaz in Bethlehem, and was the great-grandmother of King David. Ruth chose the God of Naomi for the sake of friendship and love to a poor old woman left alone in the world, but God chose her to fill a place of honor, and to make her the beloved of all future generations.

A Donkey's Suicide.

It has always been thought that man possesses one point of superiority, if it can be so-called, over the lower animals, in that he alone is capable of committing suicide. Man's sole claim to this sad privilege is now assailed from a quite unexpected quarter of the animal kingdom. The Paris Paix of the 12th inst gives particulars of the suicide of a donkey, which was witnessed, recently, by a dozen persons, who are one and all convinced that tbe animal's death was premeditated and intentional. The unfortunate quadruped, which was reduced to a condition of skin and bone, from eating too little and working too much, managed to escape from his stables in the Rue du Chardonneret, and made for the Seine, into which he entered near the Pont d'Austerlitz. A man who happened to be giving a Newfoundland dog a bath close by, perceiving that the donkey made no effort to swim, and was on the point of drowning, dispatched the- dog to his assistance. Seizing the drowning animal's ear in his mouth, the Newfoundland managed to bring him to land. But to no purpose. The donkey looked around with his large, sad eye, and quietly walked back into the water again. The dog was again sent after him, but this time the donkey kicked out so vigorously that his preserver could not approach. The donkey, once bevond his depth, resigned himself to the action of the current, made no movement to sustain himself, and was speedily drowsed.

The Electric Light and Blondes, Nobody appears to have noticed one effect of the electric light—it is going to make brunettes fashionable again. The white glare is in a color sense, death to the blonde. The pinkest of them take on little shadows under the eyes, and purple tints come into their lips, and their cheeks get ashen. I am speaking now of a natural blonde. The effect upon the artificial bleacher is simply cadaverous. But the brunette sparkles under it like the evening star. What a

Her Visit to Santa Fe—Characteristics of the Plaoe—Bare Jewelry. '5 a

Special Correspondence of tbe Express. SANTA FE, August.—Santa Fe, city of the Holy Faith, probably so called because of the great amount of that noble quality required by pedestrians in its narrow streets. Santa Fe, a nondescript, half-breed city, like ita people, a mixture of Spanish,

Mexican, In­

dian and American. Spanish in language, Mexican, in architecture, American in progress and Indian in smell.

We arrived in the city about 7 o'clock in the evening, and as our car was to be our castle during the visit, the first thought was to find some convenient place where meals coald be obtained. This was soon done, and the whole party following the foragers came down on the new landlady like a wolf on the fold, while the cohorts of the setting sun were gleaming in purple and gold about the distant peaks.

Mrs. Cone, a pleasant-faced New York lady, whose savory steak and fresh eggs have won her an enviable reputation in the city, was found a feW doors beyond the Plaza. The house, an ancient adobe structure 150 years old, is worthy of a description as a representative of its class. From a piazza, having the street for a floor, we entered a wide hall-way, the clay floor of which was so well packed down as to be almost as smooth and hard as tiling. Opening from this on either side are the dining room and living rooms, and beyond it, the court. Every town out here is built around a plaza, or public square, and every house is built about a court. In this instance the dining room, hall and parlor occupy one side, two bedrooms behind the parlor, another, and the remaining two sideB, are taken up by the kitchen and corral, where poultry is kept. The walls are three feet thick, impervious alike to heat or cold and whitened with a wash, applied like Magnolia Balm on a beauty's face, with a rag and the hand. Huge pine beams, black with age, support the roof, which is as flat as the floor, and made of boards covered to the depth of several feet with clay. No grass is allowed to grow on the roof, as the tiny rootlets draw the moisture and cause dampness in the rooms below. Some idea of the relative cost of living here and in the states, may be formed, when I tell you that the rent of this unpretentious dwelling is $70 per month A spacious mansion on the boulevards of Chicago, can be obtained for the same, or less.

Everything here is "two bit," or $10, with the Mexicanos and Indians. All small articles, regardless of their value, are "two-bit," all the large ones "ten dollar." Everything in the line of fruit or vegetables is sold by the pound. Seeing some fine peaches displayed in front of a fruit store, I went in and inquired the price, of the enterprising Yankee proprietor, "Thirty cents a pound" was the answer. "But how many make a pound I inquired. "We sell them by tbe pound because we don't care to frighten customers by telling them that just two make a pound," was the laughing reply. They were beauties, from Sacramento, but my appetite for peaches had suddenly departed. All the fruit is imported from California and the east. The apricot is cultivated to some extent, but the only orchard of this fruit that I saw was at the Indian village of Tesuque.

We spent the evening in examining the filagree jewelry at the store oi Hickox& Muanez, by invitation of the proprietors, who were acquainted with several membersof tbe party, and emptied their show-cases, trays, &c. for our edification. Besides the dainty work done by their own skilled native workmen, they have a number of ancient relics that are very interesting. One, a massive sword hilt of solid silver had been the property of a Spanish officer 170 years before. Another, a huge crown of silver set with large emeralds, reputed to be 270 years old, was brought to New Mexico at the same time and used to decorate a favorite ima«e of the Virgin, and a heavy platter of the same precious metal, with an inscription carved across it, had served with its fellows at the table of some wealthy hidalgo a century and a half ago

There are three stores in Santa Fe devoted to the manufacture of the ex quisite Mexican filagree. The gold and

silver is used without alloy, as the slightest impurity impairs the ductility of the metal, which is drawn out into wire as fine as sewing silk and deftly wound into tiny coils, that can be fashioned into any design by the ingenious workmen. Some magnificent ornaments were made of golden beetles and butterflies, their gauzy wings of the finest gold tissue glittering with emeralds and rubbiesr and their eyes and bodies encrusted with diamonds. Flowers of every description, tiny guitars, and peapods half opened, are some of the designs reproduced in the delicate material.

At the store of S. H. Lucas we were shown a bracelet said to be the finest specimen of the work in the world. Aside from its fairy like beauty a romantic history gives it an additional charm. Many years ago the wealthy lover of a Mexican senorita designed it for a present to his bride-elect and a skillful workman in the City, of Mexico labored a year to embody the design in gold and iris-hued enamels, at a cost in wages alone of $800. It is a wide oval-shaped band of golden tracery as delicate as the hoar-frost designs on the window pane, studded all over with tiny globules of gold varying in size from a pin head to a microscopic speck. A gleaming parrot with outstretched wings surmounts the center, gorgeous with rainbow-tinted enamel, supported on either side by jeweled lizards and innumerable bugs and beetles in amethyst an4 turquoise. Alas for the uncertainty of human affairs, before the princely gift was finished the beauty tor whom it was designed fell sick and died, and her inconsolable lover vowed that no other arm than hers should ever wear the dainty armlet. Years afterward he parted with it, but not before extracting a solemn pledge from its present owner, Mr. Charles F. Thayer, that he would never allow it to be. worn, and the promise has been faithfully kept, although Mr. Thayer has a wife and daughters, possessed of all a woman's love for jewels.

The Btrfeets of Santa Fe recall descriptions of Cairo and the cities of the Holy Land. The principal onea are just wide enough for two Stndebaker wagons to piss each other, and two pedestians can walk side and side on the sidewalks, or rather next to the wall, for there are no sidewalks provided that other foot passengers are

the cacti and Indians, indigenous to the soil, come in from the hiu country loaded with fagots, which are tied in huge bundles about their thistle-be-'

decked bodies, their Mexican drivers following at their heels with cudgels, which produce no mora effect, on their wholly hide thagSkhe woold on an iron-clad monitor. Grinns of greasy aenoras with the inevitable black shawls over their beads and cigarettes between their teeth lounge at the corners selling milk. Troopa of snarling, sna dogs infest the streets on the of the town, and Indians in Langtry bangs, their back-hair tastefully dressed with carpet-rags and their pigeon-toed limbs attired in costumes that would set a rag-picker crazy, wander aimless ly about or sell smoky topaz and Navajo garnet, prononnced Navaho, probably because it is spelled with a "j," to curious tourists.

•napping outskirts

Mud holes, boxes, skins and a combination of orders that Boston's champion could not "stand up" before in a fair encounter, combine to obstruct the way, while hundreds of wooden troughs, projecting at intervals of two or three feet from the roofs of the houses, send little streams of water, after a shower, playfully trickling down the back of the unsuspecting wayfarer in a manner at once calculated to Burprise and exhilerate. All this in the old city. The American quarter rejoices in wide streets and tasteful vine covered dwellings, which take in new beauty from the barrenness around them.

The plaza itself is neatly fenced in and shaded with spreading cottonwood trees. The shaft in the center bears the following inscriptions on its four sides:

TO TBS HIBOES I

Around this square the business houses, many of them with quaint Spanish signs, are grouped. Prominent among them are the curiosity shops, which well repay a day's visit. They are kept by smiling Hebrews of the Ikey Solomon pattern, and are crowded with old Spanish arms, Mexican saddles, Indian pottery, Navajo blankets, Apache water baskets, bows, arrows, moccasins, stone vessels from the cliff dwellings and stereoscopic views. The price and age of these antiquities ore as fluctuating as the stock market, and rise and fall with the purse of the purchaser in a most accommodating manner. Everything in their stock fairly bristles with years. Even the Sage of Gnunmercy Park would renew bis youth in this venerable atmosphere and appear as a playful infant in comparison with these western relics. "How old is this ancient Spanish pistol," asked one enthusiustic collector of old weapons. "Veil I don't know egsactly," says Solomon, with a sharp twinkling in his little black eyes, "vhen you bu it, I get de ticket, intimating that age wonld compare with the price pad for it. An old sword with a Spanish inscription, meaning, "Do not draw me without reason, Do not sheath me without honor," next attracted our attention. "How old is this," inquired the collector. "Veil I don'd kuow, but it is very old," was the reply. "Nothing short of a relic 3,000 years old will satisfy our craving for the antique," spoke up another of the party. "Since coming to Santa Fe, a thousand years are but as yesterday in our sight."

T,Vell,

I shust tell you about dot

sword," said the Hebrew, confidentially. "I bot him from an old Megsican, eighty-four years old, and he tolt me dot de first ding he clap his eyes on vhen he vhas born wass dot sword standing in de corner. You can. Bhudge for your selef how old it is. But we were too astonished at the remarkable precocity of the infant to enter into any calculations.

The price of this interesting souvenir was "ten dollar," as usual, but by the time the market closed it had dropped to three. A fur ring also depreciated from "ten dollar" to $7.50 in the same space of time. The number of wooden crosses from Starvation Peak, left the impression that the accommodating Spaniards had carried a cord or two of dry wood up on the barren rock, and occupied their spare time when they weren't starving in the Yankee occupation of whittling.

In my next I will tell you of our visit to Fort Marcy,- and our ride on tbe fleet-footed steeds of the American plains, in common parlance, donkeys, and in Mexican dialect, bur-r-r-os.

SCHOOLS.

The Trials of Fathers and Mothers to Support Our Schools.

Educational Advantages When All the Townships Were Hooppoles and All Counties Poseys.

The school days are here, and many mothers are happy. For days before the schools opened last Monday mothers were busy making and mending for Mollies and Harry so they would look neat and clean when they went to school. There is not a mother living who does not love to see her children go neat and clean to school—that is if she has a mother's heart in her breast. The appearance of a child at school tells the character of the mother and of the home she make.) for her children. It makes no difference how poor a child may be clothed, how many patches there may be, if the child is clean, it speaks volumes for the mother.

How many mothers in Terre Haute have grown weary within the last week mending and making clothes Many of them had slender purses, and had to contrive many ways. Poor people want their children to look as neat and clean as children of rich people and to gain this end many a poor, sacrificing mother has grown tired and weary when the little ones were in bed fast ileep.

To a stranger, the school houses of Terre Haute are one of the first things that attracts attention. They are large, roomy, weil ventilated and lighted. Everything pertaining to the health and comfort of the scholara is rigorously looked after. The corps of teachers is large, and selected with great care. In no other city in Indiana are there such school houses, and as tod schools as in Terre ante. We stand at the head on educational facilities and advantages. Here a boy or a girl can secure as good an education as they need. The opportanity is here, and all they have to do is to come forward and improve it.

How many scholars ever think of the dost of our schools how much work it costs their fathers and mothers to support them? First the school houses had to be built. That took money—money raised by taxation and earned in the same way as other money. Then comes the cost of teachers, thousands of dollars every year. That is mote money raised by taxation. It takes work to keep the Children at school. Fathers and mothers have to toil to keep their children clothed and fed. How many children think of the many long noun their fathers and mothers give at hard labor to keep them in school?

are not to be compared with the schools ot the present day. Forty or' fifty yean ago school houses were few.'

The people were engaged in setiiiug a new county and had no time to build school houses. People with a collegiate education were rare. When a child could read, spell, write and "figure,1*' its education was complete. It could not be spared from home any longer. It must go into the fields and work, into the woods to clear away the timber. The little log school home of early days would be a curiosity now. They were long and low, and bnilt of great hewed logs. There was only one door, and that in one end. At the other end there was a great fire-place large enough to take in smjU saw-logs. The windows were nm high, but extended nearly the whole length of the house on both sides. The benches were made of rude plank, the floor of hewn timber. Three month a year was considered a long term. The teacher was generally some old 'squire, who was considered the great man of the neighborhood. His sole idea of education was whipping. A long "gad" laid above two pegs ready for use, and woe to the lad that broke his rules. He Would commence by learning a child how to spell. After they had got over to "Bacon" (ask the old people and they'll tell you what "bacon" means), then came reading. When "Cossibianca, or the Boy Who Stood on the Burning Deck" was reached then came "figuring." When "square root" was conquered "figuring" ceased and grammar was picked up. When the student reached "First person, speaking second person, spoken to third person, spoken of, his education was finished, and he was able to go forth and make his way in the world. Many educated this way have grown to become leading men of the state and nation. Those old school days were happy oces. The spellings schools are looked back upon by old people with pleasure. The "Hoosier School Master" gives a good idea of the spelling schools in Hoop-pole township and Posey county, Then all townships were hoop-poles and all Indiana counties Poseys. 11 is something to be proud of, the magnitude and greatness which our school system has obtained We can point with pride to the best school system in the United States.

Tbe Wonderful Sixth Sense. Charles Latimer, who located what are known as the White Hazel coal mines by the aid of the divining rod and was paid $5,000 for his discovery thus discourses in the Cleveland Leader on the mystic powers of that magical, instrument: "The divining rod is only another exemplification of a power soon to be recognized by scientific men as the sixth sense. It shows the superiorty of mind over matter. I stand over a vein of iron ore and the rod turns. My sixth senEe realizes the presence of a mineral and the realization moves the switch. Men cry fraud and superstition, but know what I know. I know that the switch turns when I walk over metal that is indispensable, and to me satisfactory. The same sense comes into play when people dream of certain things which are happening to friends, or about to."

A Clnclnnatlau's Donation. Mr.West, whose donation of $300,000 has given Cincinnati a perpetual art loan and school of art, says that, having no one dependent upon him, he "thought he owed it to the people who had helped him prosper, and whose labor had improved his real estate, to make an honest dividend to them." He is glad he did it.

There is some dissatisfaction with Judge Stephen J. Field for talking a little too much out of the political corner of his mouth.

AYER'S PELS.

A large proportion of the diseases whic* cause homan suffering result from derange, ment of the stomach, bowels, and liver, AVEB'S CATHABTIO PILLS act directly upon these organs, and arejagpecially designed to cure the diseases cadSSa by their derange, ment, including Constipation, Indlges* tlon, Dyspepsia, Headache, Dysentery, and a host of other ailments, for all of which they are a safe, sore, .prompt, and pleasant remedy. The extensive use of these PILLS by eminent physicians in regular practice, shows unmistakably the estimation' in which they are held by the medical profession.

These PILLS are compounded of vegetable substances only, and are absolutely free from calomel or any other injurious ingredient.

A Sufferer from Headache writes: "AVEB'S PILLS are Invaluable to me, and are my constant companion. I have been a severe sufferer from Headache, and your PILLS are the only thing I could look to for relief. One dose will quickly move my bowels and free my' head from pain. They aro the most eifective and the easiest physio 1 have ever found. It is a pleasure to me to siteak in their praise, and 1 always do so when occasion offers.

W. L. PAGE,of W. L. Page & Bro." Franklin St., Richmond,Va., June 3,1882. "I have used AVEB'S PILLS in numberless instances as recommended by yon, and have never known them to fail to accomplish the desired result. We constantly keep them on hand at our home, and prize them as a pleasant, safe, and reliable family medicine. FOU DYSPEPSIA they are invaluable.

J. T. HAVES.'

Mexia, Texas, June 17,1882. The REV. FRANCIS B. HABLOWE, writing from Atlanta. Ga., says: "For some years past I have been subject to constipation, from which, in spite of the use of medicines of various kinds, I suffered increasini inconvenience, until some months ago began taking AYEB'S PILLS. They have entirely corrected the costive habit, and have vastly improved my general health.'

AVEB'S CATHABTIC PILLS correct irregnlarities of the bowels, stimulate the appetite and digestion, and by their prompt and thorough action give tone and vigor to the whole physical economy.
