To Steep for Tbem.

A tall young man, dressed in a suit of butternut jeans, sporting a pair of side whiskers about the color of six cent sugar, and accompanied by a young woman of rather handsome face, wearing an out-of-style Gainesborough hat and a yellow silk dress, which might have belonged to her greatgrandmother, stepped off a street car in front of the Terre Haute House yesterday, waltzed into the hotel through the main office entrance and inquired of an Ethiopian, "who was leaning half asleep against a pillar, if dinner was ready. "Yes indeed kernal, yes indeed, de finest you ever seed is at dis yer minit smoking hot on de table. Walk right dis way," and the couple were shown into the dining room.

Half an hour later they emerged from the dining room and walking up to the office, the young man remarked to the clerk, "Wal, I declar Mister, you keep a right smart tavern here.'

Yes, we endeavor to meet the wants of the traveling public in the best possible style. Won't yon please inscribe the cognomen of yourself and lady on the register?" "Sir!"

John threw a half dollar on the counter, and was about to leave, when the clerk said: "A dollar more,

"W-h-a-t!" "Dinner is seventy-five cents each, and your bill is a dollar and a half." "Be that the rule?" "It is, Bir." "Wal, here's your dollar.

FIGHTING IMPORTED LABOR.

The Unions Poshing the Campaign Against V30 aHead Men. Thursday night a meeting of the executive officers of the various labor organizations of Pittsburg to perfect the manipulation of the appeal to congress to prohibit labor importation was held in the rooms of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers. There were represented the A. A. of I. & 8. W., State and District Miners, No. 3 K. of L, Iron Moulders Union, Glass Workers Union, Plasterers, Furniture Makers, Printers, and numerous other labor unions of this section. President Weihe occupied the chair-and in the absence of Secretary Flannery, Mr. R. Davis acted as secretary pro tem. The reports from all delegates present demonstrated that the appeal met the hearty approval of the workmen of the different associations, and it was decided to vigorously push its circulation. Requests for an early supply of the petitions came from all sections, with announcements that they were anxiously, awaiting their distribution. The petition is headed to read the same in all, but each organization will be allowed to interpolate "its specific incentives or arguments in a subjoined note. Messrs. William Martin and Felix Maire were added to the list of corresponding secretaries by the meeting. Mr. J. G. Schlicker was reported as on his way to Washington to arrange for the passage of the bill, and if the case demands it, it was decided to send others to assist him. The meeting adjourned to reconvene January 3,1884, at 7:30 p. m.

During the session a letter was read from a former member of the Amalgamated association who left the order to work in the Apollo mills, asking to be reinstated in membership. He accuses his employers of breaking faith in making a reduction. i* -A„

Yaw's Dilemma.

John Yaw, the foreman of the grand jury, while fooling with a pair of spring-lock handcuffs in the sheriff's office on Saturday, slipped them over his wrists and accidentally locked them. He thought it was a good joke on himself until he learned that the only key that would unlock them was in Sheriff Cleary's pocket, who was out and not expected back for several hours, so all Mr. Yaw could do was to grin and bear it, until the sheriff should return. In the meantime somebody started the report on Wall street that a desperate criminal had been arrested and w.as in the sheriff's office. The lawyers and others began to drop in to take a look at the supposed prisoner. "Well he has got a tough looking mug!" remarked a lawyer. "Did he murder somebody, or rob a bank? he looks villainous enough to do either!" asked a magistrate, as he took a look at Yaw. "He looks like a desperado I once met in Texas," said a Jivery man. Mr. Yaw had about twenty^ callers and was made the subject of a good deal of guying. In two hours the sheriff returned and released him, on condition that he'd set up the cigara which he willingly did. Mr. Yaw wont fool with any more handcuffs.

THE TEAK 1883.

Another Flood Will Probably Add. to the Long List of Disasters.

The Indications This Moralag for a Big BJse in the Wabtsh.

The indications at three o'clock this morning were that the year 1883 filled with disaster, would not go out before a flood added to the direful record. The weather was moderating during the night, and the atmosphere bore every sign of a heavy rain to' come. The snow, which during the week had fallen to a depth of a foot, was thawing, and the gutters filling up with slush and water. "A heavy warm rain of a few hours will carry all of this to the river, which no doubt by Tuesday afternoon will be booming high. Great damage will also ensue from flooded cellars, and the reports this morning show that the weight of the snow and water has done considerable damage to buildings. But the floods may come and go so far as the business of the house of Ford & Owens is concerned. The reputation of the firm in the clothing line is proof agaist floods earthquakes, cyclones or what not. The house is better prepared at present, for merchant tailoring or the trade in ready-made clothing or gentlemen's furnishing goods than it ever has been.
