If Terre Haute does as well next fall as she did last week Vigo county will be Republican.- [Clay County Enterprise.

Terre Haute Republicans intend to carry the city in the fall by a larger majority than last week.

In the absence of any commendation from Democratic sources for the retiring Democratic officials the Express will say that probably there has been a more incompetent city government than the one we have had during the year paat.

The Iowa legislature has passed a law to improve the quality of the legal profession in that state. Iowa has suffered, as Indiana is now suffering, from loose regulations admitting lawyers to the bar. The law just passed requires two years' study in a practicing attorney's office, or a law school, and an examination by members of the supreme court, before the applicant is admitted to practice.

There were a few signs of a continuance of the panic to-day, but the action of the banks in New York served check the depressing effects of the previous day's failures. Confident* was shaken in other parts of the country but nowhere was there anything of a serious nature. The arrivej

a blander,— a genuine display of Democratic awkwardness to round out a year complete with mistakes.

The Courier-Journal, referring to the Grant & Ward failure, says: The case of Gen. Grant Is a harder one, and very much less discrediting to him than appears upon the surface. To say that a great captain, who, after enjoving all of the honors of his country, went to New York to ^convert himself from a patriot Into a stock gamblor, Is at once cruel and untrue. That Gen. Grant made a mistake in permitting himself to be drawn Into speculative pursuits and encumbering himself with heavy money obligations will hardly bedenied. But this was a matter the rather of condition and circumstance than of mercenary or unworthy purpose, and sprang from motives which do him the highest honor. That the Man on Horseback is a fast and Arm friend, the country has reason to know somewhat to its cost but that he is a doting father, confiding, yielding and generotfs to a fault, places amid the leaves of his military crown of laurel the added glory of a domestic affection which throws a new and pleasing light upon the character and personality of the stern soldier and silent party chief.

We commend this to our contemporary, the Gazette, which can see General Grant in no other light than a swindler and mendicant, beseechiDg alms at the hands of the government

money in the market for the purchase of American securities helped greatly to keep the stock m&vket from dropping to very much IOY,-er prices.

We hardly expected the Democrats to so thoroughly endorse all the Express has said during the past year regarding the inco° mpetency of the men they put is coo'crol of the city's affairs. The Democrr.ts in the council refused to gr* the retiring officials the endorsement of a complimentary vote, the votes of the three Democrats being cast blank when the council voted upon the election of new officials. Then the Gazette of yeeterday evening is highly laudatory of the new officials and has not a word to say for those who retired. Perhaps it was

were holding

a convention in Chicago at the time of the flurry in Wall street, and one enthusiastic delegate declared that nothing could be more fortunate for the Anti-Monopoly party than a panic. Washington dispatches say that Democratic congressmen were unusually happy as the bulletins were issued telling of the excitement in financial circles. The panic was attributed by them to a dispensation of Divine Providence and to the defeat of the Morrison bill. Nothing would be more encouraging to the average Democrat now than a panic, oven were it to be as serious as the one of 1873. In 1878 the Democracy was praying for poor crops and hard times, that the resumption act might not be consummated on the first of January, 1879. To-day the party realizing that it cannot through any merit oi its own come into power is hoping for a panic to make the people dissatisfied with the Republican party and elect a Democratic president. When it reaches this stage the Democracy becomes something worse and more dangerous in its desperation than a party which had become ridiculous by repeated and unsuccessful ruses to to capture the affairs of government.

The Miners.

To the Editor of the Express. SIR: The committee acting on behalf of the miners and strike met yesterday in Brazil.

applicants applying for relief showed a considerable falling off, the number being less than in former meetings ot the committee. This would go to prove that the strike will continue for some time to come unless the coal operators make a proposition that will prove satisfactory and end this strike. True, there area few miners still at work in the Nickel Plate mine, but they do not seem to be satisfied with the reduction, as several of them say they will quit work again until there Is a settlement made. Seeing that the general public are Interested in this strike, we ihought it prudent to state the facts In the case. Please be so kind as to publish this and oblige THE COMMITTEE,

Gov. Porter's Views.

The New York Heralt 1 writes to several governors of states for their opinions on the political si tuation. Gov. Porter responded as follows:

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT. 1 INDIANAPOLIS, May 7,1884.

TQ the Editor of the Herald: Your letter of the 5th tnst. has been received, containing certain questions put to me to which you desire an answer. I subjoin the answers thereto:

First—The tariff will, I think, be a very leading Issue. Civil service reform will not be nearly as leading issue as I think It should be. The importance of the reform has 1 regret to say, not yet taken as deep a hold upon the general public as might have been expected.

Second—I have heard little said about the matter, but I think the number who would favor the abolition of Internal revenue taxation is very small. The taxation of llouors and tobacco as a means of raising United States revenue Is generally

PT?ard—What

sure

course In your opinion

must the Republican party pursue to In­

suocess next November? A. it must show Itself in sympathy with the best aspirations of the people.

Fourth—Have you any choice, ordo you know the choice of any considerable number of yourconstituentsfor the presidency? A. Public sentiment In the Republican party In this state is, I think, less settled in favor of any particular person than it has ever been at a period so near the nomination. There are no dlvisions in the party in this state. There is a prevalent feeling that the national convention will aot wisely, and a general readiness to support with enthusiasm and downright hard work whoever shall be nominated.

Yours, very truly, A. G. PORTER.

Before his death the peddler beckoned to his cot one of the hospital attendants and terrified him by speaking to him. When the attendant recovered from his astonishment the beggar confessed that his deafness and dumbness had been feigned. He said he was a Swiss gentleman of fortune and belonged to one of the best families. When a young man he was betrothed to a beautiful and accomplished, girl. Be was possessed of a most vid lent temper, and in a lovers' quarrel over a trifle one day he so wounded the girl by the bitterness of his invective that she fell ill. The reproaches of his friends for his cruel conduct stung him so that he became melancholy from remorse and lett home.

He then resolved to punish himself He vowed to become a voluntary exile for twenty years to earn his own liv ing leave his fortune untouched, keep his relatives and friends ignorant of his whereabouts, and go bare-headed and bare-footed in all weathers during the entire time and to listen and to speak to no human being the last ten years of his exile. If he lived to complete his vow he meant to return home and use his fortune and the remainder of his days in making his betrothed happy, providing she were alive and unmarried.

He had rigidly kept his vow "but,' he cried, before he expired, "my time Is not quite up, and I must die oeaore it is. 1 have been punished as I de served." Investigation, so far as it has gone, has proven that the peddler's story is entirely true, and his family in Switzerland have been made ac quainted with his death.

A NOTED DESPERADO,

Captured After aLong Hunt—His Career of Crime. Cleveland Special.

H. Jack Chapman, the man wanted so long as one of "gophers" whose memorable running fight with a crowd at Shelby is still well remembered, was captured late last night at Berea, ten miles from here, by Village Marshall Freeman. Half a dozen detectives have been scouring the country for Chapman ever since the fight, and he has been hiding in the old haunts of the Foster gang all the time. He is under indictments for burglary and murder in Richland county and for his share in the fight, and a reward, of $1,000 was offered for him. The crimes for which Chapman will be tried are still fresh in mind. The night of November 29th a party of four men, all expert "gophers" cracked a safe at New Washington. Their work was discovered before it had reached a sue cessful completion, and they were pursued by a party of citizens. The burglars made their escape by stealing a hand-car, upon which they left for Shelby. The marshal of the latter town was informed by telegraph of the coming of the fugitives and organized a reception committee. The marshal, whose name was Sutter, was mortally wounded by the desperate fugitives, who took to the woods. They were pursued, two were killed, one captured, and the fourth escaped. J. W. Longecker, a railroader, who was in the party which followed the criminals into the woods, was killed in the encounter. It is understood that Chapman will be tried for the murder of Marshal Sutter, of Shelby, and if he escapes that charge he will defend himself on a charge of slaying J. W Longecker. The New Washington burglary case will be brought up in case of a failure to convict on the other two charges. A Lion Tamer Killed by Lionesses, London Telegraph, April 30.

A terrible accident took place the other day at Auxonne, by which one of the men connected with a menagerie, which is now being exhibited there, lost his life in a cruel manner. The unfortunate man was showing the wild beasts to Bome friends, and in passing before a cage containing a lion and two lionesses he had the imprudence to put one of his hands between the bars for the purpose of stroking the lion's mane. With a terrific bound the lionesses immediately sprang at the man's arm, in which they buried their claws, while the lion, by a single snap of his teeth, severed the arm clean from the shoulder. The unfortunate victim was taken away by another attendant, who was obliged to beat the beasts back into their cage with a three-pronged fork.

A Well Known London Begger Proves to Have Been a Wealthy Gentleman

A special dispatch from London says: The famous deaf and dumb knickknack peddler, who daring the last fourteen years attracted so much attention on London bridge, is dead, and the subject of the latest sensation. He died in the Southwark workhouse, near the south end of the bridge. Despite his infirmities he managed to sup port himself by his small sales, and, securing official and police favor by the gentleness of his demeanor and the intelligence of his conduct, he was allowed lo occupy the same post on the great thoroughfare from year to year.

LAW OV^fb

Sensational Salt at Cleveland for the Possession of a CjiUd. Cleveland Special. I J' I-

A well-dressed young' lady, who claims to be Mrs. Abbie Harrison, of New York City, applied for a writ of habeas corpus yesterday to obtain possession of a fourteen months old girl baby, now in the custody of Mrs. Annie Griffiths, of Rebecca street. The writ waa refused, and Mrs. Harrison tried to take the child, which she claimed was her own, and consequently was ai rested for assault and battery. She Bajs her former husband, William H. Kelby, stole the child and brought it to Cleveland, where it was placed in Mrs. Griffiths' care. Mrs. Harrison was on trial for the assault to-day, and the judge ordered the child to be brought into court. No sooner had Mrs. Griffiths, its nurse and foster mother, appeared with it than Mrs. Harrison rushed to its side, and, with her utmost persuasiveness, sought to have it manifest some signs of recognition for her as her mother. The little prattler at first turned from het and would have none of her caresses. The mother became still more earnest and the child no more interested, but turning its dimpled face toward Mrs. Griffiths, would Baj, "mamma, mamma," to the decided annoyance of the real mother, who scowlingly said to Mrs.

Griffiths: "Don't you dare to tell her to call you mother, you creature." By agreement of counsel hearing was fixed for May 26th, pending which the child will be in the custody of the sheriff.
