Terre Haute offers manufacturing in.lustrles unequalled Inducements. Fuel •'Utt cheaper than In anyoltyln the west, so „. ^heap that flour Is manufactured at less

JtfOit for power than prevails anywhere else In the country. There are nine ralljroads leading Into the city, making "freight rates cheaper than for any city j^Of Its slse In the west.

The comet about which we have ,"heard so much will not be back until J955. It 1« each a small affair that It furnishes no incentive to wait for it.

There is no question that many of the heaviest taxpayers in the city are "opposed to carrying into effect the sewer ordinance, and if the council wishes to voice the sentiments of the taxpayers they will repeal it, and leave the sewer question severely alone at present "or else pass an ordinance to build the Strawberry Hill sewer.

Gov. Murray, of Utah, says the Mormons are instigating the slanders about his conduct when United States marshal of Kentucky and the Associated Press dispatch from Salt Lake gives confirmation to his claim. Delegate Oane from Utah sends to the Associated Press agent at Washington a long argument in favor of the Mormon church and its chief tenet, polygamy. He prefaces his screed with the statement that the Mormons have been misrepresented. There is no misrepresentation of the fact that polygamy is being practiced, and this being so, Mr. Cane's argument carries no -weight. The time for discussion has gone by. Action is now the order of the day.

Every few days the Evansville paipers speak of the excellence of Evans--ville as a manufacturing point, and its superiority over Terre Haute. This jealousy of Terre Haute is evidencp that our neighboring cities are waking up to the fact that Terre Haute possesses superior advantages. Evansville should not forget that Terre Hante's coal is 50 or 100 per cent, superior to Evansville coal. One ton of Tene Haute steam oosl is worth a toi and a half or two tons ofEvansvillte eoal. We have the only coal in the state suitable for making iron. Terre Haute is the second manufacturing city In the states Within the last year Terre Hauti has secured additional manufacturing enterprises that will, with the enlargement of Borne of those al» ready here, give employmemt to five or six hundred more people. With the Fish wagon works the number will be increased to.1,000. Can any city iif -the state show a like gain? This means an increase of population from manufacturing alone of three or fonr thousand. It is such strides as this that is making Terre Haute a thriving city We never boast of our popula-i tion. It is now numbered in the thirty thousands. This year we will have a building "boom." Wei will erect, a court house that will cost several hundred thousand dollars^

We are able to do.this, for our county does not owe one dollar that there is not money in the treasury to pay. Work will soon be begun on our gov-' ernment building. There are several handsome business houses projected, and if as many private residences are erected thiB year as there were last year, there will be several hundred increase. Our city has a debt within the limit of the state law. Our business men are in good condition financially. The future prospects for Terre Haute are bright, better than those of any city in the state.

A GBEAT BUILDEB.

clever amateur made familiar to ns'by a sonf the phrase, "MiRMjk the power of the little pill. This power in a certain sense is celebrated in England by two splendid structures of granite, marble and brick built by Holloway, the wealthy manufacturer of pills and ointment, whose name has been made a household word all over the world by the most profuse adrer.fltising, since the year 1837, when he «pent $25,000, until last year, when he invested $200,000 in the same way. He died last month, leaving a vast fortune.

The endowment of colleges by citiiens is more frequent in America than in England, but it was reserved for Hoi, la way to give before his death the largest private benefaction of aiy Englishman. He placed in the hands of trustees and expended on his two noble institutions nearly $5,000,000. One of his great charities is a sanatorium for the treatment of mental diseases. With the idea that insanity Is a disease amenable to treatment, and that the mind is impressed for good or .levil by its environments, his hospital is

beautiful work of architecture, which aims to produce the most pleasing impressions upon minds that are intelligent, though aberrant. Upon the extario? and interior fttt is lftvlah in th« ue« of oarving, gild

ing and frescoing. The marbles and granites are combined,and decorations and fine paintings employed to the end of producing constant diversity and relief to the patient. There is none of the glaring monotony of the "spick and span" model asylum, too often oppressive by its orderly uniformity, and where one would find relief by a spot on the intensely white wall, a blur on the shining varnish or polished floor, or any interruption to the automatic precision of the discipline.

The second institution is as violent a departure from English educational conservatism as the sanatorium is from the nystem scourged by Charles Reade's "Very Hard Cash." It is a school for the higher education of young women which Holloway founded in memory of his dead wife. Pictur esquely located by Virginia Waters, it displays the highest art in architecture and decoration. Its galleries contain paintings costing hundreds of thousands. The founder has in part dictated the plan of work, but not so that his money will be tied up as many great British funds have been by curious wills. Women are to form apart of the board of control. No religious sect is to be dominant, no religious beliefs to be a bar. Proficiency in classics is not required, which emancipates young Englishwomen, at least, from the thrall of the classics, the sacred palladium of the English colleges, by which millions of hours have been misused, and which with belief in witches waB inherited by New England, one to shorten the lives of old women, the other to waste the lives of young men. \f

We cannot tell if all this lavish expenditure of money was to secure a more permanent -anemorial than the aristocratic titles often bought by other rich men, or if the orientally profuse ornamentation was to be but the gilding of a tomb, richer than that of Mausolus. The most calculating of rich men who found great charities deserve the honors earned by benefactions which show superior enterprise and finer ambition as much as their wealth proves greater enterprise and finer business talent This Holloway, though 'made rich by mortar and pestle was born to be rich. A Chinese proverb says the very rich are rich by destiny, and the moderately rich Dy enterprise and industry. He spent money profusely in advertising, which was wise if wisely done. He was not so wise, perhaps, when he sent Charles Dickens a check for $5000,asking him to mention his pills and ointment in a novel, for, of coarse, the check was returned unused. But all the profits from pellets and salves in fifty years would not heve made the fortune which could spare five millions so easily. Holloway was a bold, sure speculator like Stewart, who made when others made, and still more when others were losing. Pills merely made money for him to use aB counters in greater games.

Is there any use in looking behind men's wills to know why they were liberal? Holloway's Sanatorium for the Insane answers the question for us, as it makes an every day certainty of what was once a miracle—the casting out devils and curing the lunatic. It seems hard to tell which was the diviner power or finer evidence of the Divine Teacher's Mission, the healing of the poor, racked body, the raising from the dead, or the teaching the darkened soul. All were miserable in those'days of spiritual darkness and of incurable self-perpetuating diseases. The same power was promised to others as that which then opened blind eyes, made the madman sane, and shook off harm* less the venomous serpent. Very slowly have the works of the Messiah, of word and deed, realised their intention, yet surely both. Science to-iay gives perfect sight to those who would have been incurably blind in olden times, hearing to those who would have been deaf and sanity to those who would have mutilated themselves among the tombs of Gadara. It traces the germs of contagions and stamps out leprosy and smallpox. It will in time find the secret of yellow fever and consumption. Men will walk through the pestilence so harmlessly that the Bhaking off of the serpent from the hand will seem but a type.

When men in this day give their weal'h for education and philanthropy, it seems impossible to doubt their being moved by the spirit of the age which is so thoroughly Christian, or, practically enlightened and benevolent, that being in it they cannot escape it. Why they do good they may not know they do it and the doing is the real good to follow all teaching and hearing. There iB one form of benevolence essentially Divine because it promises no return. While there is a sure return for the care given the insane there is not for that given to the incurably insane. The lot of too many lunatics is a blot upon our age. The noblest, purest charity will be that which will provide a retreat for the hopeless, miserable beings, to whom, if ever comes a glimmer of reason, is denied all hopes of retaining it whose existence is a curse to themselves and their wretched relatives, too often beebme callous and cruel. It is probable that proper care of those called incurable would frequently secure periods of mental sanity to many of them or restoration to a Btate sufficiently sane to make life a reality and comfort. With the increase of sanatoriums will come a supply of trained specialists. The poor wretches from all the county asylums and outhouses will be gathered where wise and expert treatment will modify the most aggravated types of lunacy and idiocy.

Lesson for January 37th—Subject:

at( tne

Ut.

log in God's Light—James IV., 1-17. The church at Jerusalem had lost sight of God, and its members were living, in their self-will, a law anto themselves.

This Is not God's plan, and the disciple, in his epistle to them endeavors to point out their mistakes. Formalism was strong within them. That had been the world's religion for a long time, and it was difficult to break away and submit to God's will in everything. These christians in the church at Jerusalem were inclined to be dogmatical in their faith, and in their lives they were selfish and censorious.

The disciple strikes the keynote in the first sentence of the lesson. "Submit yourselves, therefore, to God." There it was in the plainest language. If a man should enter the army or the navy his first duty would be to learn the rules and regulations of the government of the company to which he belonged. His next duty woald be to obey them implicitly, whether they agreed with his own ideas of right and Justice or not. This is a question with which he has nothing whatever to do. The rules are made and he has not the power to change them. He must submit. So it is with life and with Christ's church. The conditions, the rules are already made, and we of His church ennnot change these in the least particular. God placed His children in this world, and while He made them free agents, He made them responsible for iheir acts of disobedience just the same

soldier is held respon

sible for his. The Christians were told to resist the devil and he would flee th^m. The more a man gives way to temptation the harder it becomes for him to resist, and the more he resists temptation and denies himself the easier it becomes for him to do these things. This is a common sense view of tne passage, but there are a good many Sunday school teachere, and very learned ones, too, who will teach the belief in a personal devil who exerts a real influence over the minds of men. Generallv though we are able to divide up our devils into certain influences, such as pride, passion, vanity, selfindulgence, etc. The best way to resist the devil, be he personal or impersonal, a real or a fancied being, is to draw nigh unto God. As the sunlight expels darkness and the summer sua the cold, so love drives out all selfishness and purity all sin.

The Christians at Jerusalem were to purify their hearts, for God would have nothing to do with doubleminded people. He wants those only who are sincere. They were to humble themselves. They had in pride striven for the chief places at feasts, and the first offices in the church. But this was not the way in which to approach God. The lowest place at Gods feet 1b the most exalted throne in this world.

One of the most disgusting as well as one of the most common sins in the church is that of evil-Bpeaking. How seldom do we hear the brethren speaking kindly of one another, or rather, lest we be speaking evil in this very thing,* how often we hear them speaking evil—impugning motives, criticising, finding fault, backbiting slightingly of gifts, or appearance, or service! God's law is that we are not even to "think evil," much less speak evil. He therefore that speaketh evil sets himself up as a judge of the low to condemn. He transgresses the law by breaking it in this very thing. If we attend to the things that God has laid upon us to do, we will have no time or occasion to speak evil of others. It does them harm it reacts upon us and does us infinitely more harm, and it dishonors the law of Christ, which is that we should love one another, and be kindly affectioned one to another.

DEDICATION.

The remodeled auditorium of the Centenary church will be formally opened and dedicated to-day. The Rev. Dr. Fowler, of New York city, arrived in the city yesterday afternoon, and will conduct the services today, both morning and evening. The musical part will be especially attractive.

The Home Club Organizing a Strong Team.

The Terre Haute club is not meeting with any difficulty in securing playezs for this season's team. Applications to engage with the club have been received from many excellent players. The club will probably sign with twelve or fourteen players, thus giving it a good reserve corps to draw upon when necessity requires. Up to the present the following have been secured Stump and Halbriter, of last season's club Hellman and McQuery, last year with the Kentons of Covington Mappis and Grether, of the Marshalls, for a change battery Van Dyke, of the Paris club, and Murphy, of last year's O'Leary's. Negotiations are pending looking to the engaging of Doreey, catcher of the New Yorks, and he will likely be signed in a few days. Beccius. formerly of the Eclipse of Louisville, but last year with the Harrisburgs, wants to come here, and an offer has been made him.

Jimmy Donnelly, who played here the latter part of last season, has been signed and partially agreed upon as manager. He is a good man, and during the short time he was with the club last season made a host of friends, Who will be glad to see him accept the management.

It is understood that a phenomenal left or right handed pitcher from the Springflelds has made a proposition to come here, which has been accepted.

The season will open here on the second Sunday in April with a game botween the Indianapolis and home clubs.

Superintendent Burrows, of the & St. L., has issued an order prohibiting passengers from traveling On all freight trains, except locals, and requiring all passengers on freight and other trains to purchase tickets before entering tihe cars. Agents are directed to make a special effort to see that this rule is carried out.. The latter part of this rule is similar to the one in force on the Vandalia.

If Anton Mayer, of Mayer's brewery, finds himself short on barley he will be able to account for It by the fact that a car loaded with the beer-making grain, consigned to him from Chicago, arrived here in a leaking condition, and had distributed the grain along the track. -Personal Mention.

West Virginia's Odd Romance—1The Groom of a Marriage In Martlnsbnrg Lives for Tears as a Woman, and Discovers His True Sex Within the Fast

Two Weeks. .viia Martinsburg, W. Va., Special. At 4 o'clock this afternoon, in the little brick church usedfby the Southern Methodist congregation, two people were married by the Rev. John Longstreet, formerly the chaplain of Jeb Stuart's Confederate regiment of cavalry. Both parties have been known for thirty-five years as respectable women. The groom, if such a name can be applied to the leading spirit, has been known for ten years as a lady of correct habits, modest demeanor, and marked intelligence and refinement. His (or her) name has been Jane Catherine Jayne. For the past ten years Bhe has kept a little store in the village known as "Rest," thirteen miles from here. There is no better family in that section than the Jaynes. The mother was left a widow in comfortable circumstances some years since and married again, but subsequently separated from hie second husband, and now lives on one of the best farms in Frederick county, Virginia, near the town of Rest. She reared seven children successfully, four of whom married prosperous farmers in the neighborhood. Another lives at this time with her mother. Still another conducts a flourishing school for young ladies near her mother's home, and the remaining one. Jane Catherine, who from childhood evinced remarkable business talent, has from the time of attaining years of maturity been engaged in commercial pursuits.

Living quietly and attending elesely to business, the neighbors gradually came to look upon the proprietor of the little store as an old maid. Judge, therefore, of their astonishment when On last Tuesday Jane Catharine appeared in Martinsburg, boldly announced her conversion from the gentler to the sterner sex, and arrayed herself in a suit of masculine habiliments, including a silk hat and redtopped boots, and followed up this performance by declaring her intention of marrying Miss Annie Hinton, a lady who for years has been her aa-' sociate and assistant in the commercial establishment at the town of Best. In explanation, she said that there had qever been any occasion to doubt femininity till a fortnight since, when, being led to. visit Pra.

The Scalpers.J

Indianapolis Journal. The passenger agents of the Vandalia are much annoyed that scalpers are selling so many tickets over their lines. Representatives of the Vandalia emphatically deny that they are giving encouragement to the scalpers in this business, or that they have any agreementor arrangementwiththem, which is doubtless true, yet there seems to be no remedy by which the business can be stopped so long as the western roads pay the scalpers commission.

Notes.

No. 6 passenger train east on the Vandalia went out in two sections yesterday.

The Vandalia people state emphatically that they are not cutting freight rates east.

No. 1 extra on the Vandalia was two and a half hours late yesterday, caused by late trains on the Panhandle.

The Vandalia is still maintaining the lead in the line of stock traffic out of St. Louie. She was 725 cars ahead in the pool yesterday.
