Terre Haute offers manufacturing industries unequalled inducements. Fuel is cheaper than in any city in the west, so cheap that flour is manufactured at less cost for power than prevails anywhc.o «lse in the country. There are nine railroads leading into the city, making freight rates cheaper than for any city of its size in the west.

The Frankfort Banner lias hit tlie nail on the head with great precision in saying '"The Terre Haute Express lias a big fight on hands, hut stands squarely by what it deems just and right." ______

The Express' esteemed contemporaries at Evansville have quietly yielded the point that Terre Haute offers cheaper fuel for manufacturing purposes than any other western city, claim that Evansville "is the leading hard lumber market of the United States."

Men of character who were appointed police commissioners at St. Louis are resigning their positions owing to the influences surrounding them. The law contemplates a complete divorce from political manipulations of the control of the police force, but these gentlemen discovering that this is merely a blind tor the public and that they are expected to carry out the schemes of the party bosses step down and out, as the only thing they can do and retain their self respect.

It is now what the governor of North Carolina says to the governor of Massachusetts. The old saying between the respective magistrates of North and South Carolina is no longer pat, because the governor of North Carolina happens to be the president of the State Temperance association, but the friendly relations between the governors of Massacliuseets and North Carolina have been attested by the presentation of a buck and three ewes to Governor Jarvis by Governor Butler.

The state convention of Massachusetts' colored citizens has issued an address to the colored men of Massachusetts and the country. The address sets forth that the time is propitious for united action on the part of the colored men to maintain their rights If there are any civil, moral or political rights in Massachusetts, or any other northern state that the colored man does not enjoy, we would like to know what they are. In the south the colored man, we admit, has a hard row to hoe, and will have just so long as the national government permits the pros titution of the election laws and the violation of the ballot box by the un reconstructed Democracy of that sec tion. But in the North the colored man enjoys all the rights of citizen ship equal with "the proudest peer of the realm." In the North the colored man votes as he pleases, and it is counted as he votes, and he in his liability to debt, taxation and death stands upon the same footing as his white brother. If he wants any more he had better take the earth.

The czar and czarina of Russia are the guests of the king of Denmark, at the royal palace in Copenhagen, and the cable informs us that on Sunday the, czarina unexpectedly entering her chamber, caught one of her chamberlains in the act of placing a note on her dressing case. Suspecting something was wrong she withdrew to a place where she could observe his actions. After placing the note and glancing around the room, the man withdrew. The czarina then entered the room, secured the note, and upon reading it discovered it to be a threat against the life of the czar unless he complied with certain wishes of the Nihilists. The chief of police was summoned and ordered that the guilty party be placed under arrest. The culprit, upon being confronted by^the police and charged with the offense, quickly drew a pistol and blew Ms brains out. Now, for a considerate criminal commend us to that fellow. His example is worthy of emulation by the criminal class in this country, and if when arrested for causes of which there is no question as to their guilt, they would quickly dispatch themselves as this Russian Nihilist did, it would save the state all the worry and trouble of a trial and a large amount of money, besides there

jury or of justice. of justice. If our cnmi

should adopt this salutary practice oi

lawyers, to incur aloss in the way of fees, but their loss would be the peopled gain. We trust our murderers and other criminals will give this important question the consideration it deserves, as we are free to confess, it looks to be the most feasible plan yet discovered whereby the villains and scoundrels can rid the country of their undesirable presence.

The New Jersey Democrats have taken up the Ohio plank on the tariff, which was also copied by the brethren of Pennsylvania and Virginia. It is to be the meaningless sham of the party, behind which the disagreeing factions can hide while the effort is being made to gain votes, especially those of the workingmen. The "tariff-for-revenue only" Watterson can put his hand over his heart and say he endorses this declaration, as can Randall, the Pennsylvania protectionist. And so it is hoped to delude the intelligent people of the country into the belief that the Democratic party is of one opinion on the tariff question, whereas the fact is that the views of the leaders are so diverse that bitter personal feeling has resulted. When Randall and Watterson can endorse the same platform it is to be taken as a matter of course that the platform means nothing at all. This Ohio resolution that is so, popular with Democratic state conventions declares in favor of "a tariff for revenue, limited to the necessary expenditure of the government and so adjusted as to give protection and encouragement to home productive industry and labor without producing or fostering monopolies." That is really as strongly protective as any Republican convention ever adopted, if you take it for exactly what it is intended to say to the people at large. The proviso is the saving grace for the free traders and tariff for revenue only Democrats such as those who were entertained by the Iroquois club of Chicago a few months since. "Without producing or fostering monopolies," as if the act of the government in giving to all the people of the United States an equal opportunity to engage in the manufacture of these articles could come under this proviso. The Republican congress of last winter acted precisely upon the idea contained in the fore part of the Ohio resolution.

There was a surplus of revenue. The import duties were cut down so as to keep the revenue from exceeding the expenditure of the government, and the indications are that this object has been accomplished with far more sagacity and judgment than usually results from legislation necessarily based on estimates. In revising the tariff the idea was to secure this reduction and secondly to do it in away "to give protection and encouragement to home productive industry." But when this was being done strenuous opposition was met. It came from Ohio, Pennsyl vania, Virginia and New Jersey Demo crats, the very men who have been pretending this summer to declare themselves in favor of such tariff legis lation.

A Final Besort.

Courier-Joufnal. Some alarm is expressed at the great increase of unmarried persons in New York The divorce lawyers should remember however, that agriculture Is still open to the legal profession.

A Missouri Governor, or Prison Bird. Minnesota Tribune. If Mr. Frank James be not handed over to the Minnesota authorities to be tried for the Northfleld robbery he will be the next governor of Missouri. His future looks bad either way—a Missouri governor or an Inmate of Stillwater prison Poor Frank.

Peacemaking in the Southwest. San Antonio Times. Senator Houston stepped between the pugilists during the fight to separate them, and received a blow on the back of the neck from Mr. Carr, Intended for Mr. Bell, and a blow in the eye from Mr. Bell that was intended for Mr. Carr. This rather knocked the senator out of time.

EVANSVILLE'S MARY CHURCHILL..

Tlie Sudden and Mysterious Disappearance of a Young German Girl. Evansville Courier.

Evansville, like St. Louis with her Mary Churchill, and Philadelphia with her Charley Ross, comes to the front with a disappearance that thus far has proven equally mysterious. Bertha Ehrmann, a young girl about seventeen years of age, and who has been a resident of the city and country about six week, disappeared Sunday in such manner as to baffle all the efforts of her friends and the police to find her. She left home on Sunday afternoon with agirl from her neighborhood to attend vespers at Holy Trinity church. After the service "was over they went down to Lamasco to see the dying woman, Mrs. Schaefer. They entered the house, and while there Mrs. Schaefer wanted a drink of water, which Bertha's friend went out of the room to get. When she returned Bertha was gone, and all trace of her since that time has been lost. The Ehrmann girl is about seventeen years old, live feet high, blue eyes and dark brown hair, and wore when she left Stadler's, the baker on Fourth avenue, with whom she was living, a brown dress and white hat. These disappearances ai-e getting to be too frequent to be pleasant. No suggestions have been made by the Stadler's that would lead to any* cause for her disappearance.

J. H. Tonndt's Suit.

Indianapolis Journal.

In Judge Walker's court, for about ten days past, the damage suit of Joseph H. Youndt against the Panhandle railroad company has been on trial. Mr. and Mrs. Youndt were both injured in an accident on the road in October, 1875, eight years ago, and sued for damage. The case was then decided in favor of the company, but

Yesterday morning Julia Yeley filed suit in the Circuit court against Sturgis Yeley for divorce, alleging failure to provide, drunkenness and cruelty. The case came before Judge Scott yesterday afternoon, and Yeley filed his answer in person, testimony was heard and the court decreed a divorce and gave the custody of the two-year-child to the plaintiff. This is probably the quickest divorce time on record.

GOOD BUSINESS.,' v*'

The Business of th$ Vandalia Said Never to Have Been Better „if. —A Deserved Promotion.

The E. &. T. II. Earnings Falling offOther Matters of General Interest.

i*tf fto#

H. W. Hibbard, general freight agent of the Vandalia, while in New York had conversation with several capitalists. When speaking of the Vandalia and western roads he said: "Our average car movement is now as heavy as in 1880, traffic good oh all roads. We cross the Wabash at Altamont, Effingham and Marshall, and that road also has promise of large tonnage. We have no charges to make against other roads, and I have not the slightest doubt that Commissioner Fink will find no difficulty in having rates maintained all through the winter! The framings of all the roads leading east from St. Louis will be equal to if not

larger than in 1880 and far from mak ing concessions the Vandalia will be unable to cope with the amount of promised business."

Promoted.

Lon Robbins, a popular Vandalia passenger conductor, has been appointed assistant superintendent of a division of the Missouri Pacific. Mr. Robbins was at one time master of transportation on the Van. His pro motion is well earned.

Railway Earnings.

The earnings of the E. & T. H. for August were $83,753, against $95,476 for August 1882, a decrease of $li 723 From the 1st of January to the 1st of September the earnings were $473,539 against $583,499 for the same period last year, a decrease of $104,940. Several reasons are assigned by railway men for this decrease, the most plausable being the failure of crops.

The official statement of earnings on the Union Pacific syBtem for July and from Jan. 1 shows a gain of 23 per cent, for net earnings for July, and per cent, for the seventh months.

It is stated on authority that the earnings of the New York Central for the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, (estimating the last fortnight this month) amount to $33,100,000, being the largest gross earnings on record.

In the eight months ending Aug. 31 the Wabash road earned $10,822,588.83 a decrease of $258,341.42, as compared with the earnings the corresponding eight months of 1882.

General Railway Notes.

It is said that the Grand Trunk proposes to lease the Boston & Lowell The Indianapolis car works have commenced on the 500 box car contract for the Erie.

Overloading freight cars has become so common that an effort will be made by several of the roads to put a stop to the'abuse.

Indianapolis Journal: Coal traffic over the Indianapolis & St. Louis road is increasing handsomely the last few months. In August nearly 900 carloads were brought into this station. Just now there is trouble with the miners at Carbon and business is light

Indianapolis Journal: Colonel Hill, superintendent of the Vandalia, is not contented with having his track neatly surfaced up, ditches clean and weeds out, but goes still further, and is now painting up the depots, whitewashing sheds and outbuildings, and even the fences on each side of the cattle-guards. The most needed improvement he is making, however, this season, is the lengthening of side-tracks, so that their freight trains may promptly get out of the way of passenger trains.

Personal Notes.

M. Robinson, traveling agent of the C. & P. D., was in the city yesterday. H. W. Gray, general freight agent of the I. & St. L., was in the city yesterday.

F. C. Talbot, assistant general passenger agent of the E. & T. H., was up from Evansville yesterday.

T. W. Russell, traveling passenger agent of the O. & M., was among the railway men in the city yesterday.

AMUSEMENTS.

Adah Richmond Company. A small, somewhat cold audience received this combination in a play announced as a dramatic sensation by Joaquin Miller, called "Carrots." The only sensation connected with "Carrots" must be one of surprise that the wild Joaquin should be guilty of such trifling plagiaristic work. The company might be called a fair average. Miss Richmond did not sustain the favorable impressions made by her appearance in La Perichole and Girofla some years ago. Her part is not much and the singing consisted of but two pieces one sung with considerable spirit and the other, "Sweet Violets," mangled in the orchestral accompaniment, did not fit in at all. R. E. Graham as Long was good and attracted most of the applause. Major Brown (R. E. Ryan) filled well the part of that typical and now well known "Virginia gentleman who goes west to drink and die. John Dawson is a gloomy, depressing creation and was played accordingly by Nelson Duker who probably would do excellently in something else. In that miserable conceit of accompanying pathetic passages with soft, doleful music our orchestra is a failure and only succeeds in distracting the hearer's attention. The demand is for harmony or silence. "The Bandit King."

This is the title of the play which makes a hero of Jesse James, and which will be given at the Opera house to-morrow night. Of course there will be a crowded and top-heavy house.

Made Honest by Business Principles a Druggist tells the Square Truth. "Now, my friend, let's be perfectly frank and candid about this little matter," the druggist said, placing both elbows on his plated show-case and looking his customer fairly in the eye. You have a lame back and want a plaster to put on it. You don't know me, and, judging of human nature as it runs in business, you are afraid I'll humbug you in some way. You may think it an odd statement, but I 'can't afford to cheat you. Even if I did I haven't the means. "That's curious. (Oh, my back! I'll take a chair, I guess.) Don't you keep plaster's?" "On, yes, one or two kinds. Once I had shelves full of tbem—every sort that were ever Invented to gull the ignorant and make money for imitators. But I •if ted 'em out one by one, and now sell

'Tfes, but my customers and myself prefer Benson's Capcine—which are quick as electricity, safe as Government bonds and sure as the law of gravitation. The doctors order them, and what is more to the point, I have never heard a complaint from any one who has used them. You can go elsewhere—if your back will bear -you out in the operation—and get another and a cheaper plaster, but—" "Don't t'llk to me about the money," broke in the comfort-seeking stranger, with some heat. "What's ten or fifteen cents to getting rid of. this confounded— oh, Lordy!—this pain and lameness? Let me have one of Benson's Capcine. That's the real article, is it? With the word CAPCINE cut in the body of the plaster.
