Terre Haute citizens will, we know, be glad to join in furnishing relief to the thousands of helpless and homeless people along the banks of the Ohio river. The necessity is beyond all precedent and there should be no halting in the good work.

The slight misunderstanding between certain interests which for a time threatened serious injury to the formation of the Board of Trade, has been explained, and as will be seen by

the report of the meeting of the joint committee, held yesterday, the preparations for the permanent organization have been fully made. The men, the spirit and the occasion are all that could be desired to make the Board of .i Trade a success. The meeting tonight is for the election of officers and it is especially important for all signers of the constitution aud bylaws to be present.

When the Marquis of Salisbury &aid in the house of lords yesterday that viz. the British ministry had the blood of the English soldiers slain in Egypt on

their hands, he made a very serious charge, but there is warrant for it. No defense such as Granville made, that the English officers who were in command of the Egyptian troops were not acting for the Brltith government will avail. England asserts full control of Egyptian affairs but the government, while insisting upon such authority, has failed to be decisive and to use sufficient force to check the false prophets career. She must either take positive action or[step aside,and as she has no intention of doing the latter there is criminal blundering in the vacillation.

There was a good point made by Hiscock, of New York, in his speech on the resolution appropriating $300,000 for the relief of the flood sufferers. He reminded the Ohio members that the Ohio legislature is now in session and that as there was a grave question as to the constitutionality of an act of congress affording direct relief, it was the duty of the legislature of a great state like Ohio to make provision for its suffering citizens. The question naturally arises why should a rich and powerful state ask federal aid when its legislature could in an hours time take suitable action. We are pleased that Indiana has not done so and that she did not do so last November and that her legislature quickly responded to the demands of the hour.

We do not mean to be understood as saying there is no field for the work of congress in the matter of giving relief to the people who are evidently doomed to be visited by disastrous overflows of the Ohio river. The di,rect appropriation for the relief of suffering can be prevented by preventing the occasion of the calamities. This is the subject for the science of engineer.ing and as to the cost the truth of the adage that "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" can be easily -a* applied as to the cost of

lowance for carrying out most any plan which engineering skill may decide upon. It must also be remembered that in addition to^the money that will be used in relieving distress is the vast damage that has been done to property and in the delay of business. It would, therefore, be good policy and wise economy for congress to pass a law that will carry out a carefully desvf vised system of improvements which .will prevent the recurrence of these disasters.

Money for the Women Suffragists Boston Traveller. The $20,000 left by Mrs. Eddy to Mrs, Lucy Stone and Miss Susan B. Anththony—$20,000 to each—was not left in trust for the suffrage cause,as has been erroneously stated, but left absolutely to each. Knowing the characters of the women to whom she left it, Mrs. Eddy instructed her will to be drawn giving each absolute control and possession. It was her wish that it should be devoted, at the absolute discretion of both Mrs. Stone and Miss Anthony, to the suffrage interests, and no one could doubt but that they would do so. Many a thousand dollars of their own earnings have they given to this work. Wendell Phillips drew up the will himself, and when he read it to Mrs. Eddy he asked: "Now, if Mrs. Stone or Miss Anthony chose to stand on India wharf and throw this money into the sea they could do so, could they not?" "Certainly they could," Mrs. Eddy replied, "and no one could say them nav. I trust Lucy and Susan absolutely. Such plainly appear to be the provisions and expectations of Mrs. Eddy, the legator.

Specimen Sports of a Gang of Cowboys in a Mew Mexican Town: The Santa Fe Review says: Billy Wilson, Tom Pickett, Yank Beale and Pony Williams, once members of the notorious Billy the Kid's gang, took the town of Seven Rivers, Lincoln county^on Sunday last, and after two days and nights of hellish carnival, they wound up their sport by carrying out one of the most blood-curdling crimes ever recorded in frontier history. While in the town they made their headquarters at Bill Griffith's saloon, where all the free whisky their carcasses could hold was easily had by reason of the fear which Griffith had of their murderous and reckless use of 45-Colts and Winchester rifles. The whole town was intimidated, and remained at the mercy of the mob until their final departure. On Tuesday afternoon the following muned Mexican laborers, who had been at work on an irrigating ditch in tne Pecos valley, entered the town for the purpose of procuring a supply of provisions: Juan Roival, of Puerto de Luna Regino Guiterras, of Los Ojiotos Saval and Encarnacion Guiterras, of Los Colonias Melquiades Flores and Sisto Guiterras, of Los Esteritas, Tioboro Ulibaari, of La Cuesta, and Juan Lermo, of Corpus Christi, Texas. Pony Williams, who was on the street, saw them, and stuck his head in the door, and yelled: "Come out here, fellows there is a gang of 'greasers' coming up the road let's have some fun with them." With this everybody ran out of the saloon, and as they ran pulled their "guns." Beale fired the first Bhot, and then the whole party opened fire on the dazed gang of laborers. At the first general volley two of the men fell, two others fell while retreating a second later, and the balance found shelter behind adobe walls and fled for the mountains as fast as their feet would carry them.

The rustlers fired something like a hundred shots,and without going near their victims, howling with delight as if so many maniacs, and, returning, reentered Griffith's saloon. Here they quietly reloaded their weapons, forced the bartender to fill them several bot-

ties of free whisky, mounted their horses, which were near at hand, and hastened toward the Mexican border, yelling and discharging their weapons at every jump of their ponies. A posse of Lincoln county citiaens went kjj

in pursuit, but it is likely that the das- ., tArds have concealed themselves in

BITS OF IRON IN THE GRIST.

Bfagnets That Now Separate Them From the Wheat Before Groand* In a collar-box in the deBk of a down town dealer in machinery for flour mills, says the New York Sun, were twenty-seven bits of wire of various lengths and forms, two barbs, one nail head, two small lath nails, two pieces of larger nails, one piece of a Bcrew, and apiece of sheet-iron. "How is that for a grist?" he remarked. "Have you a machine to grind such things as that?" "Not exactly, but millers run such grists through their millstones every day in the year. Several years ago tJhe genius of the reaping-machine man invented an attachment by which the grain was bound into sheaves as it was cut. The binding was done with wire, As a consequence when the wheat was threshed a good deal of that bindingwire went through the thresher and dropped out in bits into the wheat. Millers, particularly in the northwest, found so much in the grain that profits were seriously cut by the injury done to the millstones. Two or three associations of millers in different states resolved to buy no wheat that had been bound with wire. That wouldn't work, of course, and it was not long before a milling journal advised the millers to put magnets in the spouts through which the grain was received from the farmer. The miller found that he accumulated not onlj a lot of binding wire, but odds and ends of metal that he had never dreamed of. This lot in the box came from a grist of fifty bushels. But the magnets had their drawbacks. They didn't catch all the iron and they had to be cleaned by hand. Then an inventor devised a machine which consists of a hopper, into which the grain runs, and from which it is fed in an evea sheet over a plate of sheet-iron. The plate serves as an armateur for a ping of horseshoe magnets beneath it, and becoming magnetized itself, it holds all the metal mat reaches it with the grain. Once a minute an automatic wiper cleans the metallic substance from the sheet of iron. The machines are of various sizes and makes, ranging in capacity from twenty-five to three hundred bushels an hour, and in price from $4i to $125."

iS The New Hork Clubs. Howard, In Philadelphia Press. There is one good thing about the Press Club. It sedulously avoids any fictitious notoriety gained by clutching at the coat-tails of distinguished men. The Lotos club has an nneveniable reputation of seeking to better itself by catering to the notoriety of whatever men of prominence may, for the time being, be before the public. There is a toadying element in the club which

could find no parallelin the members ahip ibf the Press club. The Press club is composed entirely of men who earn their bread and butter and whatever cake they may have by literary labor on the press. The Lotos, as I have before indicated, is largely composed of Wall street men, ulerks, brokers and youths in general, whose fathers enable them to defray their club bills without any great mental or physical effort of their own.

Qenersl Grant's Health. Hon. John C. New in Indianapolis Journal.

A paragraph has been floating about in the press for a week or two, copied from aNew York letter writer, to the effect that General Grant was in "failing health," "dangerously ill" etc. The statement is not true, and the correspondent has been misled by some one into making it, The writer spent part of an afternoon with General Grant at the residence of the latter, in New York, last week, and it was a great pleasure to find him recovering from his injury. It will be remembered that during the Christmas holidays the General, in stepping from his carriage onto the sleety pavement in front of his house, slipped, and, in falling, heavily struck the stone step leading to his door, severely bruising and lacerating the muscles of his left thigh and hip. The injury confined him to his bed for two or three weeks. He was recovering satisfactorily, being able to walk about his room", when,during the very severe weather in January, he took a cold which produced rheumatism in his right foot and ankle. This latter trouble has confined him to the house since that time, but he sits up during the day and walks about the house with a crutch: He has his usual appetite for food—never very greatsmokes and enjoys half a dozen or more cigars a day, looks as well in the face and eyes as though he had not been ill a day. He has lost neither flesh nor strength. His voice is as firm and his mind as clear and quick as it was at Shiloh or Appomattox. He discusses men, measures and public affairs with the same clear perception and vigor as when he led the armies of the nation in the field or the deliberations of his cabinet in council, and, in fact, he appears to enjoy the quiet and rest tne enforced confinement to his house affords him. In short, General Grant's condition- gives every evidence that the future has in store for him many years of mental and physical Btrength and vigor. The promise of long life was never fairer.

All were unmarried save Flores, who leaves a large family. Tom Pickett was chief of the merchants' police at Las Vegas in 1879, but turned outlaw and joined Billy the Kid, who was then rendezvousing at Las Portals, east of Fort Sumner. Billy WilBon was the Kid's lieutenant in all his murderous career, and when Sheriff Pat Garrett captured the Kid at Stinking Springs, San Miguel county, in December, 1881, he also took Wilson Tom Pickett, and the noted Dave Ru debaugh. They were brought to Santa Fe ana placed in jail, and kept there until early in 1881, when they broke jail and escaped. Garrett put a temporary quietus on the gang when he killed Billy the Kid at Pete Maxwell's ranche, July 10, 1881, and it was thought these companions of the Kid had followed the example of Rudebaugh and left the country, but it seems they have been operating in Mexico all this time. This is the first time they have dared cross the border since the death of their leader, the Kid.
