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 jost for power than prevails anywhere else in the country. There are nine railroads leading into the city, making freight rates cheaper than for any city )f its size in the west.

The Express is in daily receipt of oiany complaints concerning the stealing of papers from door yards. It is difficult to prevent this annoyance entirely, but as a means of preventing it as far as possible, the Express oflers a reward of five dollars for the detection ind conviction of any person stealing copies of this paper from the premises of subscribers. ,,

According to Mr. Blaine's plan for distributing. tho revenue tax among the states Indiana would receive $

We suppose the big pay is the only consideration that cduld possibly have any weight with a man in transferring his usefulness from a penitentiary to the inside of a museum. All things even we would prefer the penitentiary, and on the whole are inclined to be lieve Sergeant Mason is a fraud.

Representative Phil Thompson is one of the most effective workers that Carlisle has. His mild, gentlemanly and affable manners have won Mr. Carlisle many votes. Mr. Thompson understands men, and knows'how to manage them.—Washington Special.

If we are not greatly mistaken this is the Mr. Thompson who "managed" Mr. Davis by sending a bullet into the back of that gentleman's head.

Mr. Henry Watterson is evidently determined that people shall know him as Mr» Tilden's spokesman. Taking bim as such the ultimatum he gives us this morning ought to put an end to all further talk about the "old ticket." But it won't and in no state will it be more persistently advocated than here in.Indiana where Mr. Hendricks has friends who do not want Mr. McDonald nominated by the Dem ocracy.

The Gazette has gone daft on the phrase "carping criticism," which it is perpetually using in its whining complaint over the fact that the Express is all-powerful in securing the attention of council committees to the mismanagement of various departments of the city government. It begs its political friends not to heed the Express to the extent they have heretofore, and in its usual "I-say-it that-settles-it" way, imagines it has brushed aside all just cause of indignation at our bad local administration.

About three weeks ago our esteemed contemporary, the Courier, announced that its circulation was increasing from fifty to one hundred copies each day. Its last affidavit shows an increase of niuetv-six in one day. Let us go into mathematics for a moment. Two weeks means twelve publication days. An increase of fifty a day would mean 600. The Courier claimed 1,200 circulation two weeks ago. It makes affidavit to 1,296* two weeks later. Between now and January 1st there are twenty-seven publication days. At the same rate of increase the Courier ought to be able to make an affidavit on the latter date to about 1,426. This is somewhat like a puzzle, but it iB the way such things are done occasionally.

'If there.could be any cause which could jilstify the intervention Of the United States in foreign affairs, it would be the unjustifiable aggression of France upon China which if continued into actual war will derange an important commerce affecting our interests as well as those of other countries. .Regarded from either a Christian or economical point of view a strongliatlbn is constrained to arrest an unnecessary war. It is not likely, however, that France wiil be allowed to prosecute its proposed campaign to the bitter end, fortunately, for itself, for if the Chinese offer any adequate resistance the result will be disastrous and dishonr»ble in its outcome. There is a precedent which points to the probable fate of the existing French government. The overrated Louis Napoleon, taking advantage of our civil war, invaded Mexico. The United States was able simply to protest against the infraction of the Mutiioe doctrine, but afterwards, when the rebellion-was crushed, our govern-1

mrnt informed Louis Napoleon that his continued occupation of Mexico would be gravely inconvenient. This and a significant movement of an army corps led to the immediate departure of the French troops. The failure in Mexico and its results in France were tho beginning of the ruin of- the Empire, to be consummated at £edan.

China has a greater right and necessity to protect Tonquin than we had to guard Mexico. She has the rights given by kinship and political relations, and above all the necessity to forbid the bodiment of a treacherous, ambitious power upon her southern borders. China, with Russia on the north.and France on the south, would some day be another Turkey to be dismembered. The great expense in money and life of a successful war or a fruitless campaign in Tonquin, will stir up an opposition in France that wilt lead to the downfall of the present government. ,t"

Mgr. Capel proposes to give bis views on the American system of schools, or that part of it which requires the taxation of Catholics in common with others for the support of public schools. He objects. There is a freshness, not to call it impertinence, in this proposed attempt, if it be true, by a foreigner, to excite strife which, although it will -be fruitless, can be troublesome. It will be fruitless because not even the Catholics themselves as a body would desire any such system of education as a European prelate could suggest nor even such as their own clergy prefer if they should affect the present practical and efficient education of American youth. With or without reason as it may be we somewhat plume ourselves on our schools and nothing could make us more obstinately sure that everything about them, from the system of taxation to the curriculum of studies, is exactly right than would a crusade against them led by a foreigner. ^•.?

POSTMASTER-GENERALS.

Generals Gresham and Tyner in Indianapolis—Tliey Favor Holding the Convention In Indiauapollf. Indianapolis Journal.

Postmaster-General Gresham, who arrived in the city on Tuesday, left last night for Chicago. Mr. Gresham was interviewed yesterday by a Journal reporter, and when asked his opinion in regard to the movement for having the next Republican national convention held at Indianapolis said: "The matter is one that I know nothing about. "Is any earnest effort being made to have it held here?"

When told that the people very much in earnest about that matter, and, in answer to another question as to the number of persons that could be provided with accommodations, that it was claimed that all the visitors would be amply cared for, Mr. Gresham said: "Well, I see no reason why Indianapolis cannot get the convention."

When asked what would probably be the result of the light against the lottery companies, he replied: "The matter is one which it would be improper for me to talk about. The question is yet to be passed upon, and it is one of the things that it would hardly be proper for me to talk about now.' "Were you correctly reported in the interview which appeared in the New Albany Ledger, crediting you with the statement that you are not a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor, and do not approve the use of your name in that connection was asked. "I have not seen the interview," re-plied-Mr. Gresham. "I have said nothing of the kind, and, in fact, was not interviewed while in New Albany by any one."

Gen. Gresham left Washington last Thursday and spent Sunday with his mother in Harrison county, his old home. He will return to Washington in a few days.

Ex-Postmaster General James N, Tyner, of Peru, also spent yesterday in the city, having recently returned from a six months sojourn in Dakota. He leaves this morning for Peru, and will

LiILIPUTIAN PliAYERS.

A Full Comedy Company of Midgets Ar. rived to Do the Couutry. New York Special.

A unique dramatic company, consisting of nine Liliputians, landed in Hoboken this mornicg from the Hamburg steamship Lessing, and were taken to the Belvidere house, Fourth avenue and Eighteenth streets. On the ferryboat they were the objects of a great deal of curiosity on the part of the passengers,- who peered into the carriage to get a sight of the little people.

Their names are: Miss Ida Mahr, age eighteen, a native of Germany, forty and. one-half inches high, soubrette Richard Dora, aged twenty two, forty-five inches, character de lineator Miss Minna Mignon, aged twenty-one, forty-six inches, leading old woman Rheinbold Fischer, aged twenty-one, character sketches Johann Wolffe, aged forty, forty-two inches, first comedian Ignatz Wolffe, aged thirty, thirty-six inches, seconc, comedian Franz Ebert, aged twenty, thirty-one inches, firet juvenile Anton Heiblar, aged nineteen, forty-five and a half inches, walking gentleman, Selina Doernier, aged twenty-one, forty-one inches, leading juyenile.

The companies have performed in all the large cities of Germany, and recently in London and Paris. In the latter city Miss Ida Mahr had a wonderful success. Her coquettishness and diablerie'gained for her numerous admirers.

One of the critics of the figaro said that the performance resembled one of Grimm's fairy tales. The smallest of the troupe is Mr. Franz Ebert, who was born in the province of Bradenburg. The Wolffe brothers are from Austria Mr. Dorn id from Saxony, Mr. Heibler, from Berlin and Mr. Fischer from Northern Germany. Miss Mignon is the tallest member of the troupe. They-will appear shortly at the Thalia theater.

Tbe Murder at Eagle Rock.' N. Y.Sun. The clues in the Paullin murder cuie in New Jersey are as yet very slight and unsatisfactory. Phoebe Jane Paullin, a respectable young girl seventeen years old, was assaulted and killed near the Eagle Rock road, not far from Orange, some time after 5 o'clock on Saturday evening. Her parents live four or five miles from Orange, and she was on her way home, after having made some purchases in the town. There is not the same mystery as to motive which enveloped the Ambler mnjA in Connecticut, and which also exists in reference to the Brookville murder on Long Island, but the.probability of detecting the murderer seems no greater.

The fatal woqnd was inflicted in the neck by means of a Bmall, sharp instrument, probably a penknife. The onlv articles found near the body, which seem likely to have belonged to her assailant, or assailants if mere were two of them, were two blood-stained sticks, and a bit of postal card, which does not give promise of afiording a clue

The fact that there was so little blood shed in the Ambler case and none in the Maybee case, undoubtedly made it easier for the murderers to escape detection. Here, however, there was so much hlood about the body of the murdered girl tiiat it seem prob-

abW§Wine guBtjlave been «P^%ed updii heraspUanil^nd it may yet JiSipa cljje ^j|ch«M wanting in tjlese cases. An indication that the crimliiat was probably not a hunter is found in his ijseof a knife rather than some firearm: thom li, ou the other hand, it is to be said that if he had a choice of weapons he would be pretty sure to select one which was silent, in view of the proximity Sf the^road.

Notes of Yesterday. i-r-•

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. Up to the last Count celery was good for forty-nine thousand diseases.

A good fat turkey, stuffed with truffles, is one ofthe finest of royal dishes. It has been remarked that the hotel Thanksgiving pumpkin pie takes the squash.

Vermont turkeys brought eighteen, 'cents a pound", wholesale, in the Boston market.

The Indianapolis' Sentinel /hopes Sergeant Mason's turkey with Betty and the baby to-day will be "fair, fat and—not forty."

Thousands of poor people in kindly communities get all the turkey and pumpkin pie they can eat on one day in the year, and that is this day.

The Philadelphia Call has been de? .tecting and arresting "Thanksgiving jokes, asold as boarding house turkeys, that are going the roundB again."

Nothing is more difficiflt to carve than the duck, and a large old one takes the edge off both the carving knife and the family head's Thanksgiving piety.

Notwithstandingthe prospective dinner, should the pastor add twenty-two minutes to his discourse to-day, many of his congregation may be unconscious of it.'

Looking at one of the monsters at the recent Fat Cattle show, a big eyef Chicago man expressed the wish that he might, have one for his Thanksgiving dinner.. "Governor McDaniel,-of Georaia^ did not yield to the pleadings of a few Democratic papers not to mix Church and State, but issued a short proclamation designating Thursday, November 29, as a day of thanksgiving and prayer in that state.

Hunting the Deadly Mouse. Wrightsvllle (8. C.) Kecortlc r. A lady, while, engaged, in the pursuit of her domestic duties, encountered a mouse in the flour barrel. Now, most ladies, under similar circumstances, would have uttered a few genuine shrieks and then sought safety in the garret, but this one possessed more than the ordinary degree of genuine courage. She summoned the man servant and told him to get the gun, call the dog and station himself at a convenient distance. Then she clambered up stairs and commenced to punch the flour barrel with a pole. Presently the mouse made its appearance and started across th^ floor. The dog stalled at once in pursuit. The man fired and the dog dropped dead. The lady fainted, fell down stairs, and the man,'thinking she was killed, and fearing he would Dt arrested for murder, disappeared and has not been seen since. The mouse escaped.

Courtesy of tbe Connecticut Troops New York Bun. While Broadway was dammed with troops on Evaenation day, the Third Connecticut regiment was halted near the Prescott house. Its plumes were bedraggled, and it& uniforms were sodden^with rain, but its spirits were as bright as day. A member of the Danielsonville company saw a gentleman in a window looking at his watch, and asked him the time. "A quarter of 1," was the reply. "T-h-a-n-k-s!" responded the wtiole company, as one man, in a thundering tone.

The volume of courtesy BO discon certed the man, that be dropped his watch. It swung from his vest like a pendulum. The crowd roared with delight. A moment afterward the Connecticut boys shouldered arms and marched away to the strains of "The road to Boston."

Saginaw, Mich., Jbas had a spelling bee. The first to fall was the president of the board of education, who missed the word "Altar." A professor stumbled over "Nonpareil." "Guerrilla" was too warlike for a clergyman, and "Canon" was too peaceful for an ex mayor.
