Terre Haute offers manufacturing in iustries unequalled Inducements. Fuel is cheaper than In any city In the west, so sheap that flour Is manufactured at less 3ost for power than prevails anywhere else In the country. There are nine rail' toads leading Into the city, making freight rates Cheaper than for any city it its else in the west.

The Vincennes Commercial now appears as a morning daily. It is a remarkably good paper, and if it keeps up to the standard of the first few issues will undoubtedly be successful,

The Gazette announces that the Young Men's Democratic club "is bringing out this year men who hitherto contented themselves with merely casting a ballot on election day." This the Gazette says is a significant fact. We wonder if the significance is in a purpose to give any of the old workers a back seat.

The Chicago Tribune in its personal column announced that "Chang Yu Sing, the Chinese Giant and Judge B. W. Hanna, of Crawfordsville, are at the Palmer house." We had heard that Judge Hanna was on a lecturing tour, but this would indicate that he lias gone into the show business proper. Chicago is a big place and big men go there and it is possible the presence of the giant and judge was merely a coincidence.

Twenty-six homicides in New York slnoe the 4th of November, the day of the Danville riot, and not a Congressmaa has raised his voice in favor of investigating these crimes.—[Richmond (Va.) Despatch.

No one ever charged that these murders were committed on account of the political opinions of the murdered men. Moreover there have been indictments found against the murderers. And still further there have been no mass meetings in New York endorsing the crime in any instance.

Governor Porter has issued a proclamation to the people of Indiana calling for aid for the Bufferers from the flood. In Indianapolis there has already been a substantial response. The need, of relief this year will be fully as great as last November, and above all the urgency of the appeal is for immediate relief. A dollars' worth of provisions in Lawrenceburg to-morrow is as good as ten dollars worth a week from today. Terre Haute has always responded willingly to any appeal from the suffering and no doubt some t-tep will be taken to-day to that end.

At the conclusion of tbe Star Route trials it will be remembered that Dorsey in several addresses to the public displayed a love for figures of speech. At the time it was thought he had merely been imbibing some of the talent of his counsel, pagan Bob, but now after several months sojourn on a ranche in the far west, Dorsey still persists in the use of "pretty" English. Speaking of the Star Route cases to a reporter, he said "The dirty muck of the Blisses and Brewsters and the gang with which they associate was only worthy to fertilize the garden of their infamy." Evidently Dorsey is doomed for the lecture platform.

The poor, downtrodden population of Ireland is doomed either to persecution or neglect. England is now so much occupied with El Mahdi that she has no time to be brutal toward Ireland and the "liberators" are so much occupied in doing reverence to the memory of O'Donnell that the actual sufferers in the old sod are for the time being forgotten. There was a squaring of accounts in New Yoik the other day •when it was shown that $63,000 had been collected in this country for what was known as the O'Donnell defense fund. Of this the lawyers received $19,000. In all about $30,000 were expended, leaving $33,000 on hand. Is this to be sent to Ireland for the relief of the poor there? Nothing of the kind. It is to be used in erecting a monument to O'Donnell. Not a cent of it ever was apportioned to the wife who was neglected that the "avenger" might be accompanied by a mistress on his mission of death. If the Irish leaders expect to utilize the sympathy of the people of this country they must put an end to this nonsenseJBA coterie of loose tongued ranters has nearly exhausted the patience of the great mass of persons who deeply sympathise with Ireland and her suffering inhabitants, but while England is despised for the

course pursued .toward the Ijiah people the people in this country will not become dupes oT the men who lead the movements and who do so merely to gain notoriety and the control of contributions.

The South Found Out Where Ee Was. Boston Globe. Senator Logan Is trying to work up that boom, but we fear it will never amount to much. Somebody will get up lust at the wrong time aDd ask John where he was when the war broke out.

Return of Masher Rignold. New York World. The quiet arrival here on Wednesday of a once celebrated "masher," or male beauty, and the general indifference with which the female breast met the announcement, suggest a whole sermon on the ephemeral nature of male "mashers." It is only five years ago when our women were inflamed by the mere photographs of George Rig nold. They crowded Booth's theater and fought for seate to contemplate him. But he has not lost many of his charms during these five years. He is still a thick-set rather beefy, heavy-jawed and stolid looking person, that might easily be mistaken for a London brewer or a retired East India merchant. It was Rignold, if we mistake not, who played Romeo with seven Juliets in one performance, and had a reserve of beauties in the green-room, all begging with tears in their eyes to be allowed to get a word in Bomewhere. Now it is doubtful if they could be hired to play with him unless he engaged them for the season at their own terms.

No Really White Elephant Ever Existed. London Field.

Mr. Sanderson, the superintendent of the government elephant-catching operations in Bengal, who speaks with more authority and larger experience than any other European, states that "there is not, nor ever was, such a creature as a white elephant, in the ordinary acceptation of that term." The socalled sacred white elephant of the kings of Burmah and Siam are ordinary elephants, possessed of "marks" analagous to those which may be seen on the specimen now in the Gardens. In that one the pinkish color extends all over the trunk half way up the forehead, and the same marks are found on the tips of his ears.

A Modest English Statesman. Derbyshire Times. A somewhat unusual spectacle was to be seen on the platform of the Midland Central Station, at Derby, shortly after noon on the Tuesday of last week. There was a carriage in the 12:45 express to the north which bore this proclamation: "This carriage is engaged for the Right HOB. Joseph Chamberlain, M. P., from Birmingham to Newcastle." Within sat the right honorable gentleman himself, viewing through his glass, and with the eye of a republican and a modest man, the effect of the inscription upon the assembled populace.

The "Block" system for single track railroadB is safe but expensive, and is said not to have been adopted by any line on this account.

A Bachelor View.

Boston Globe. (ih it The row among the women of Washington over.the question of precedence is supremely silly. If the statesmen of the country cannot keep their wlVes from squabbling In public, they had better send the whole cackling flock of them home to dispute with nurse-maids for precedence In wielding the slipper.

A Starter for Free Trade.

Globe-Democrat. An interview with Mr. Morrison represents him as saying that he introduced his tariff bill with a view not to making a fight for the sort of reform that he would like to see inaugurated, but with tbe hope of getting things started in the desired direction. As a "starter" towards free trade, Mr. Morrison's bill may fairly Je considered a success.

He Knew the Profession, 'i r:

Philadelphia Call. "res," ssid the doctor, "you must pr& pare yourself for the worst. You cannot live many days. You had better make your will at once." "Make my will?" gasped the sick lawyer. "Yes," replied the doctor, gently "It would be well, I think." "No," the legal man said, shaking his head, "I will never make a will. My family needs what little property I have got."

The President's Brother.

Boston Pilot. "Major Arthur"—Who is he? The brother of President Arthur, and apparently a modest soldier who minds bis own business sedulously. Mr.' Arthur may be a "machine politician" of the worst kind, but we observe that he does not promote his brother over the heads of other offloers, as Grant promoted his son nor play such tricks with the national offices as the sainted Garfield and hardly less salntedHayes did. On the whole we have had worse presidents, who professed to be much better, than Chester A. Ar thur.

A Good, Healthy Snake Story. The Charleston News and Courier says: In North Carolina there is a reptile known as the joint snake. When attacked it flies in pieces, each piece taking care of itself. A darkey attached one of them the other day, and to his utter amazement it broke all up, each section jumping off in a different direction. In the course of an hour he returned that way and was utterly amazed again to see it all together except the tail piece. After waiting a few minutes he saw the tail comiDg to join the body, taking sharp, quick little jerks. It came nearer and nearer until within a few inches of the three-quarter snake, when it gave a sudden jump and hitched on.in its proper place with a fuss resembling the popping of a cap. The darkey knocked it to pieces several times, and each time it came together again. He carried his amusement too far, however, in throwing the tail part of the snake across the creek, just to see, he said, "how long it would take to catch up," but it never caught up. The snake, with its three joints, was carried to the house, where a new tail is beginning to grow to replace the lost one. A gentleman who knows much about this singular species says ahead will grow on the detached trunk, and there will be two snakes instead of one.

MASTERS OF MONEY.

Light fn/i Airy Descriptions of Some of Wall Street's Great Honey Kings. New York World. ,#•:

Everybody knows Russell Sage, exmember of congress. He has the largest cash account of any man on Wall street. The distinguishing trait in his character is his benevolence and extravagance. He has been known to give a candy vendor 1 cent for half of a 2-cent stick of chocolate, and to wait ten minutes for the change out of a 3cent piece tendered in payment of a 2 cent evening newspaper. Mr. Sage is also celebrated for his sociability. His greatest delight is taking his lunch in the offices of his friends and at their expense. Mr. Sage's specialty is the "put and call" system, of which he is the father.

Mr. Jay Gould is a kind philanthrop. ist whose chief delight now is in yachting and cultivating flowers at Tarrytown. By carefully watering his plants and the use of the printing press his stocks have made him worth something like $50,000,000 in about fifteen years. He has a magnificent conse rvatory there, and it is said that he will walk five miles any day to see anew variety of orchid. He dabbles in stocks sometimes by way of amusement. His stocks shrunk up last year to the extent of something like $38,200,000. His favorite stock is Western Union, which depreciated $7,200,000 during the past year. Mr. Gould is about 54 years of age. He weighs at least ninety pounds without his head. The exact avoirdupoiB of that adornment has never been ascertained. He has a massive brow and fine perceptive faculties.

Uncle Rufus Hatch is one of-the great characters of the street. He is a great believer in the Northern Pacific, and lost a heap of money in the collapse of that stock. But it is understood that he made up the loss by going "short" in wheat. Life is one huge joke to Uncle Rufus. Those who know him best say he never uttered a serious word in his life. He is a bonanza to the reporter in search of a funny interview. He is a short, thick-set man, weighing fully 200 pounds. He has a large bald spot on the top of his head. He wears shaggy side whiskers and mustache. His clothes are made of black broadcloth, and he carries a fur trimmed overcoat,

Mr. Sidney Dillon is president of the Union Pacific, which declined last year 26} per cent., depreciating the value of the capital stock over $16,000,000. Mr. Dillon is very tall, being considerably over six feet high. He stoops slightly, He has a large, square face, and wears Dundreary whiskers, which are almost white, as is also his hair. Mr. Dillon is now traveling in the south with his daughters, while Mr. Gould remains in the endeavor to bull the Union Pacific stock. Mr. Dillon's wife died several weeks ago. He is about sixty-five years old, has a hard face, and is a very stony, austere person.

Mr. Mackay used to be a bartender in Colorado. Now hi is the largest silver mine owner in the world, and he lives in palatial magnificence. He is believed to b»ro «so»perl the srreat losses entailed by the depreciation of last year. The chief Wall street en terprise in which he is interested at present is the Postal Telegraph company, of which he is president, and which he is backing with his money. Mr. Mackay is a short, stocky man in the neighborhood of about fifty years old. He looks something like a Scotchman. His face is rather florid. His hair is abundant and light colored,and he has a mustache of the same shade, the rest of his face being smooth. In manner he is quick and energetic, but he says very little except in private in tercourse.

Mr. keene made his money in mining operations." He came into Wall street a number of years ago with a fortune estimated at from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. He is believed to have a very small slice of it left. His operations have been large on both the bull and bear sides in the stock market. He has speculated in more things than any other man living. He has dabbled in opium, in pork, in gas, in mines, in stocks, and in horses.

Mr. Keene is about five feet nine inches high and weighs about 140 pounds. He is thin and lantern-jawed. He has a dark brown mustache and a stubby beard. He wears somber clothing of an ancient pattern and carries a pepper-and-salt overcoat of the style of 1879. Mr. Keene is of a nervous temperament. He has quarreled and made up again with his principal broker half a dozen times. In his office he oscillates between the stock indicator and tumbler of chamomile leaves. Every few minutes he picks one out with his thumh and forefinger and puts it in his mouth. Mr. Keene makes it a practice to damn the market whichever way it is moving.

Czar Vanderbilt is the richest man in the United States and his invest ments are in government bonds and other solid securities. Yet he keeps a steady eye on the stock market, gambles constantly, and is ever anxious to sustjdn the prices of his favorite securities, the Central, Lake Shore, and the others belonging to his system. But the prices of these last year declined with the others. Vanderbilt is a big man bodily. He must weigh 220. pounds, but' mentally he is not the equal of his father, who created his wealth.

EXHUMING A BEAUTIFUL GIRL.

The Romance

Surrounding

a Girl's Sui

cide in Brooklyn.

New York World. An unknown young woman committed suicide by drowning in Prospect Park lake, Brooklyn, early last Decern ber. She was well clad, and wore a gold watch valued at about $50. She was buried in the paupers' burying ground in FJatbush. At the time considerable feeling was expressed, for the young woman was very handsome, and from the delicate appearance of her body and limbs it was apparent that she had not been accustomed to work. Although no one positively identified the body, it was thought, nevertheless, that at least one person had recogniied it. A man, who refosed to give his name or residence, said that the woman was, beyond a doubt, his dead wife. He was anxious to obtain possession of the remains, and said he would bury them decently. His request was denied, however, because he persistently refused to make his request known.

The mysterious claimant, with a companion, called at the office of the charities department recently and made application to have the remains disinterred. He said that he was J. Bryan, of No. 22 University place, in this city. He was then given an order, which he presented to Mr. Murray, the keeper of the almshouse.

The coffin being taken up, the lid was removed, and the two men bent over the body, carefully gcanningthe features for a few moments. They then whispered apart for a short time,

'EE TBRBE HAUTE EXPRESS. TUESDAY MORNING. FEBRUARY 12.

handed the keeper $2, and left, without saying a word. "I am well satisfied," said the keeper, to a reporter yesterday, "that both men positively identified the body. Tney were gentlemen and promised before I exhumed the remains to let me know whether they knew the woman. They left without a remark of any kind to me, although they both seemed perfectly satisfied with the result."

Mr. Ryan removed from the University place about two weeks ago. He is about forty-five years old. A friend of his, upon being ciuestioned by the reporter, said that it is true that he has a wife who is missing. It is also true that he went to Flatbush and had the body exhumed. But his friend claims that he failed to identify the body.

PEGGY O'NEAIi

Tbe Woman Who Seriously Trbnbled Jackson's Cabinet. Peggy O'Neal, better known as Mrs. Eaton, is recalled by Mr. Parton in a very readable chapter. She was the pretty and vivacious but not over-pru-dent tavern-keeper's daughter in Washington, you know, who became the wife of General Jackson's secretary of war, and in whose social behalf the whole power of the Jackson administration was brought to bear with so much determination and with such unusual consequences. The ladies of Washington made up their minds with one accord that Mrs. Eaton was an improper and unworthy woman,"and that that they would not call upon her nor recognize her in any way as the wife of a cabinet minister. General Jackson took her part, and became her personal champion, using every means at his command to compel attenr tion and consideration for her. "I have had in my hands," says Mr. Parton, "hundreds of pages of manuscript in Gen. Jackson's writing, all relating to this affair. He summoned the propagators of the scandals concerning her he made her case a topic of cabinet discussion he threatened representatives of foreign governments with dismissal on her account he sent his niece away from the White House because she refused to second his efforts in the tabooed woman's favor. But it was all futile. "Gen. Jackson's will was strong." Mr. Parton observes, "but he discovered on this occasion that woman's wont was stronger." In spite of his fuming and storming, the ladies resolutely refused to have anything to do with Mrs. Eaton. When she appeared in a cotillion at a fashionable ball, they would immediately retire from it when seated next to her at supper, they would quit the table when brought tete-a-tete with her in conversation, they would turn their biacks upon her and otherwise manifest their utter disapproval of her presence.

It was this controversy over Mrs. Eaton that really contributed more than anything else to General Jackson's quarrel with Calhoun and drove the latter into the nullification project. The cabinet was convulsed and broken up under the same pressure. And it is unquestionably true that Mr. Van Buren gained the presidency by siding with Jackson in this matter. Mrs. Eaton does not appear to hov# been a specially remarkable woman in any way. She was passibly handsome and intelligent, and her father had been an old friend of Gen. Jackson. When Major Eaton married her she was a widow, her first husband, a purser in tbe navy, having committed suicide, leaving her with two children and very little fortune. According to the best testimony she was not in fact a wanton or a bad woman, but only a careless and indiscreet one. She liked admiration and social excitement, but was not given, we should say, to intrigue and calculation, and the circumstances which made her such a prominent factor in Washington affairs were principally accidental rather than of her own choosing or causing. It is none the less true, however, that she was the occasion of more contention and more political manoeuvring and animosity than any other who has ever figured in American history. Soon after the close of the JackBon administration she was again left a widow, and a rich one at that, and Bhe continued to live in Washington for many years in elegant style, though she never succeeded in overcoming the old prejudice against her or in winning the measure of social recognition which Gen. Jackson strove so hard and perseveringly to secure for her. Near the dose of her life, when experience should have saved her from such folly, she took a third husband in the person of a worthless young Italian danc-ing-master, who squandered her fortune and brought her in poverty and sorrow to the grave at the age of 83 years.

A Dangerous Experiment in Mesmerism. Pall Mall Gazette.

Anew and dangerous development of mesmerism was displayed the other day at Paris to an admiring and sympathizing public by a well-known mesmerist, who at the same time is a lion keeper in a certain menagerie. A beautiful young girl, on whom the spiritualist generally practices, wa# brought into a cage of lions, and after being thrown into a cataleptic sleep, was submitted to the most frightful ordeals. In one of these the head and arm of the girl were put into the mouth of a lion, which had previously been infuriated by lashes from its master's whip. But the apparently dead body did not excite the animal's appe tite. At the end of the scene the girl was released, and went smiling away, while the mesmerist earned rich laurels.

There is an old superstition that the wearer of a silver ring is secure against the quarrelsome. Occasionally a man is seen wearing a silver ring. The next time you see one ask him how he gets along with the old woman.

The Tribune Almanac for 1884. The Tribune Almanac has long since established itself as a standard book of reference, and in its particular sphere is recognized as without a rival. The Almanac for 1884 contains official returns of the late state elections and the last presidential election. It will be of value to politicians, candidates, writers, and voters generally throughout the country during the present year. Twenty pages are devoted to an analysis of the Tariff Act of 18S3. They give in compact shape in parallel columns, the present rate of d*ty on each article of merchandise, the old rate, the rate recommended by the Tariff Commission, the value of each article imported, and the duty collected. In view of the continued agitation of the Tariff, this authentic statement is timely and useful. The Almanac also contains an abstract of the acts of the last session of the XL Vllth Congress, which were noticeably important the Party Platforms of 1883 the statistics of the foreign trade of the United States and a great deal of other general and statistical information. The mice is SO cents.

Cherry

No other complaints are so insidious in theil attack as those affecting the throat and longs: none so trifled with by the majority at sufferers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting perhaps from a trifling or unconscious exposure, is often but the beginning of a fatal sickness. AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL has well proven its efficacy in a forty years' fight with throat and lung diseases, and should be taken in all cases without delay.

A Terrible Cough Cured.

"In 18671 took a severe cold, which affected my lungs. I had a terrible cougluandpassed night after night without sleep. The doctors save me up. tried AYKR'S CHERRY PECTORAL which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary for Hie reeovery of mystrength. By the continued use of the PECTORAL a permanent cure was effected. I am now 62 years old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied you* CHKRRY PECTORAL saved me.

CHERRY but for its use I should longsi from lung troubles. E. BRAGDON.

Palestine, Texas, April 22, 1882. No case of an affection of the throat or lungS" exists which cannot be greatly relieved by the use of AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL, and it will always cure whdh the disease is not already beyond the control of medicine.
