THE AGRICULTURAIi BOCJIETY.
Board of Directors' Heating—Stockholders' Meeting November 1Mb, at Which Time the Secretary Will Blake His
Report. The board of directors of the Vigo Agricultural society held a meeting last Thursday in Secretary Wm. Duncan's office. No business of very great importance was transacted. The resignation of Benj. F. Roders as a member of the board was read and accepted. Mr. Edwin F. Ellis was appointed by the board to fill the vacancy. The board adjourned to meet again next Friday morning at the same place. The work of raising money with which to liquidate the debts of the society is progressing. At present a large amount has been raised and by the time the stockholders' meeting is held it is thought that the association will be out of debt entirely and can give a fair next year without being encumbered as it has been for several years past. The meeting of the stockholders will be held the second Saturday in November, the 9th, in the council chamber, At this meeting the secretary will make his report of the receipts and expenditures
of
the society.
The officers and committees
of
the
society for the next year will aUb be elected at this meeting. The present management of the society has made a splendid record, considering the conditidB the society was in when control was assumed, and it would undoubtedly be to its beet advantage to retain the present force in the management of the society.

THE WATER WORKS.
An Improvement Which Will Furnish the City With Better Water Interesting Talk Concerning the Works-
The water «.•?company have recently pui ms strainer in the river. II the strainer has been located near the shore and as a consequence when there were rains the water pumped into the pipes as muddy and contained much sediment. Complaints have been made of the bad water that has been tciven to the city by the water works company. These complaints mil now cease as the water used is the purest that can be obtained and contains but very little sediment. The new strainer which has been put in is located near "the middle of the river. It consists of an iron box three feet square and of about the same depth. One side is open and is covered with a fine brass wire screen, la conversation with one of the employes of the company it was learned that no noticeable difference could be seen ia the quality of the water on account of the river being so low. The water at the bank is about as clear as in the middle of the river. When the river rises the water at the bank becomes muddy first, and is the last to become clear. The location of the strainer in the middle of the river will avoid much of the muddy water. The pipes contain some sediment and it will be some time before it is entirely washed out. Although the change in the water can not be noticed now, as soon as the river raises there will be a decided change in the quality of the water.
Inquiry was made as to the quantity of water used by the city. It was learned that on an average 1,500,000 gallons of water are pumped every day, twenty-four hours. This is equivalent to 46,875 barrels. The amount se -ims large but it is nevertheless correct. During the summer months much more water is used than in winter. The increase is mostly due to street sprinkling. At times the water used for a day reaches 2,000,000 gallons. During tb#* months of July and August the amount averages about 1,800,000 gallons per day. These estimates do not include the extra amount used by fires. The capacity of the pumps is about 3,000,0()0 gallons daily to each set. The pumps used are manufactured by Clapp & Jones, of Hudson, New York. This make is considered to be one of the best and has obtained quite a reputation. Probably aB many of their pumps are in use as those of any other firm.
The pressure carried when water is used for ordinary purposes is between fifty and sixty pounds. In case of fire the pressure is increased to from 100 to 110 pounds. "How quickly can the pressure be increased from fifty pounds to 100 pounds?" was asked. "Some parties from a distance were here not long ago," said the engineer, for the purpose of inspecting the machinery, and I raised the pressure to 100 pounds in forty seconds. I did not know they were timing me or I could have done it quicker."
Experiments have been made for some time on the different kinds of coal. The coal was weighed and .a careful recor kept of the amount, the time, pressure and amount of water pumped. It was found that the best results could lie obtained from Brazil block coal, but the price of the coal was too high to warrant its use. The nest best coal was ascertained to -be Brazil nut coal and this grade is being used. Between ten and fifteen cars of coal are consumed every week.
ST. PATRICK'S PAIR.
Closing ot tbe Most Successful Fair Ever OiVen by this Church, St. Patrick's fair closed laBt night, and a very successful one it has been. When the subject of giving the fair was broached Maurice Hagerty *as elected president, Thos. Larkin secretary, Dennis Barrett treasurer. Messrs. Thomas Larkin, John Lighthouser were chosen to superintend the raffling, Barney Dougherty and John Freel were to be doorkeepers. These gentlemen have worked hard to make the fair a success, also Father McMulfen and Mr. Oon Cronin. But it must not be thought that they are entitled to all the credit. The women come in for share, and are entitled to a large share. Who would have attended the booths, sold ice cream, lemonade, boquets, cooked and served oysters and other things that only women can
It is well enough enough to have '.e men to organize a fair, but it takes the women to make it a success. The ••omen have Bold hundreds of tiiahes of ice cream, hundreds of glasses of lemonade, hundreds of boquets, and served many dishes of oysters. Give them credit the men certainly can staud the loss of a little gloiy.
The hall was crowded last evening, and remained
BO
until Saturday de
parted and Sunday came. It was a jolly crowd, and from the laughter and fun there was not a heavy hearted person in'the house.
Many fine articles have been exhibited, nearly all of which were donations. Several of our liberal business men made donations of articles which have been raffled off and brought in a handsome amount. There were Sowers, plants and other articles sold at auction, and they brought Rood prices.
The watch was raffled off last evening, Dr. Hall being the lucky man. A dress to be awarded to the most popular young lady was awarded to Miss Maggie Kennedy, who received 72 votes and Miss Annie Hegarty 25. When Miss Kennedy received the dress the woinen crowded around her, woman-like, you know, to see the treasure, which was displayed with pride.
The violin to be awarded to the most popular young man was won by Mr. M.Dougherty, who received 172 votes, to A. J. Kaufman 123, W. F. Apman 110 and W. H. Baker 103.
The fair will net over $2,000.
THE TER&E HAUTE EXPRESS, SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 19, 1 84.
The Farmers Celling Their Wheal. The farmers are: fRoromencing to bring in their wheat quite freely. The number of wagons filled with wheat that have been coming into the city for several days past, was noticeable. A miller stated yesterday that the farmers had brought in more wheat in tbe past few days than at any time since tbe crop was harvested. He did not think it would last long, attributing it to the fact that the wheat had all been sown for next year's crop. The farmers will still hold their wheat for a better market. Wheat is selling at from 60 to 75 cents. The best patent flour is being retailed at $5.75.
iv'r A Meteor.
Yesterday evening Mr. David Taylor and Mr. Andrew Grimes were coming from Youngstown to the city in a buggy and when about seven miles south of the city they heard a "whizing" sound. Simultaneous there was a bright light lasting three seconds. The light was bright enough to have enabled a person to read a newspaper. The buggy top was up and the gentlemen did net see tbe meteor which must have struck the earth near them. Shortly afterward a bright aerolite passed across the heavens.
I^fi At St. Patrick's Ghnrcb. There will be a week of instruction at St. Patrick's church. Beginning at 10 o'clock mass this morning, instructions will be given every day until next Sunday. After 10 o'clock mass this morning the Rev. Father McMullen will instruct his people. In the evening he will preach. During the week instructions will be given after the 5 o'clock mass, after the 8 o'clock mass, and a s.rmon will be preached each evening. The church will remain open every day.
Thought a Cat Was a Baby. Several boys engaged in digging fish bait, yesterday morning, at tbe corner of Firet and Swan streets, came across a cigar box, which, on being opened, was found to contain a body. The coroner was notified, the box brought to
Cead
olice headquarters, and Dr. Mooresummoned. The general opinion was that it was a baby. Dr. Moorehead pronounced it a cat. A worse sold crowd was never witnessed in Terre Haute.
r\-i: The Hoosier Fiddle. Dr. H. W. Taylor, formerly of this city, now of Paris, 111., Will begin in the Chicago Current, of October 18th, a disquisition on "The Cadence and Decadence of the Hoosier Fiddle." It will picture the Hoosier fiddle when the puncheon-floor dances were all the rage, and dancers clad in home-spun kept time to the neighborhood fiddle. A contrast will be made with the dances of to-day.
Boston has a cat show this week at which 1,500 prizes are offered.
'A PERFECT GEM.
The Elegant Mansion Constructed for Dr. Allen Fence. Terre Haute has many fine residences. On every street can be seen new and handsome homes constructed at great cost. But how wonderfully different the residences erected within the last few years are compared to the old style houses. The old style houses were built for comfort and no attempt was made toward show, or architectural beauty, as it id called. The architects seemed to have exhausted all their skill on the houses recently constructed. They are beautified with columns, gables, arches, etc., until to tell all there is new about them would take a week. For several years Dr. Allen Pence has told his family that he intended to build a new house. LaBt spring work was begun, and all summer architect, carpenters, masons, glaziers, plumbers, and other mechanics have been busy, and now it is finished and stands one of the most palatial mansions in the city. It is two 6tories, basement, garret and tower* An Express reporter was invited to go through the building a.few days ago, and it wonld not be proper to deprive Terre. Hautentots of the beauty of the place. The vestibule is solid walnut, the door guarded by heavy walnut storm doors. The main door is of solid carved walnut, filled with Venitian glass of fine pattern. This glass is undoubtedly one of the finest in the city. Glancing at it all the colors known to sight are visible, which change and rechange, while flashing diamonds twinkle as though they were fire flies. Stepping back a few feet, the colors change, and the diamouds flash the brighter. The door opens into a large reception hall. From this hall the grand, stairway starts—a stairway of solid cherry. At the first curve a window filled with Venitian glass sheds mellow light, imparting a beauty rarely seen. But the reception ball, there are few like it in the city. It is wffimed with an open fire place, with hand painted tile, the ainting the work of Miss Amelia "ussner. The reception hall opens into a large front parlor, a beautiful room, finished with gucftr As a finishing wood, gum is one of the finest grown in America. An open grate imparts a cheery appearance, and large windows bordered with cathedral glass give the room light. The massive wooden mantel is a beauty. It is of gum, elegantly carved, and fitted with a plate mirror. Imbedded in the mai tel on the left is a beautiful painting of "Morning," the work of Miss Amelia Kussner. Morning" is represented by a maiden standing on the clouds scattering flowers on the world below. "Evening," by the same artist, is on the right represented by a maiden in repose. Thep comes the back parlor, lighted by three wiPdows bordered with cathedral glass. This room is also well finished with gum. It is warmed with afire place, with tile border, with painting on the right and left, the work of MISB Kussner. The dining room, a place which any housewife would fall in love with at a glance, comes next Tbis room is finished with chestnut, a beautiful wood. There is a grate and a heavy chestnut mantel, with heavy plate mirror, while on the left in the wall is a china closet Large side-boards can be drawn out, making carving a pleasure. All three rooms—front parlor, back parlor and dining room, and the reception hall, are connected with sliding doors, and the rooms and hall can be thrown into one grand salon. The library connecting with the back parlor, must not be overlooked, with its beautiful finishing of gum, and heavy massive sliding door opening into the parlor. The kitchen, where man looks for the real joys of earth, is a model. It has everything to make it perfect—provision closets, pantries, sinks, hot and cold water, etc. The room and pantries are finished with chestnut

INDUSTRIAL NOTES.
Tbe Wabash Rolling Mills. The Wabash Rolling mill commenced work last Monday morning, full in all department*. The mill gives employment to about 200 persons. Tbe furnace is still idle. The proprietors state that it is ready for operation, all the materials being on hand, ss soon as thfe condition of the market will warrant such a step. The furnace at Gadsden, Ala., is in operation and is turning out more iron than ever before and of an excellent quality.
The Nail Works.
The nail works is running full in all departments. The twenty-six puddling furnaces are turning out laree quantities of iron and the 146 nail machines are cutting hundreds of kegs of nails. Shonld the works continue in as steady operation for the remainder of the year, and there is no doubt but that they will, as they have been since January, no mill in the United States will surpass it in the amount of nail a turned out.
High School Lecture Conrse. Tbe High school faculty are making a creditable move in something that is out of the usual routine. Should the effort prove successful to raise a sufficient sum a lectore course will be prepared embracing lectures from the most able and prominent men and women of the country. Tickets will be sold to any wishing to attend the course. The lectures delivered here two winter* ago when John B. Gough, Mn. Livermore, Mrs. Laura Dainty, and others were on the programme were all well attended. There is no reason why success should not attend the efforts of the High school faculty.
Entire birds, with tbe feet turned ap, are used for trimming hate.
With easy steps the grand stairway leads to the second floor—a floor so admirably arranged ss to attract instant admiration. The flight leads into a grand hall, warmed with a grate. The rooms all open into the hall-way, making ingress and egress convenient Several of the rooms connect, and every room has a grate with massive carved manfel. All the finishing is of gum, ana all ihe doors are of chestnut A stairway leads to the hall from the rear. There is a large cedar closet on this floor—made entirely of cedar, and is moth-proof, In the ball-wayjand on the grandstairway are niches lor stauary, and the artistic taste of the family who will occupy it varrapts (he assertion that fine statuary ifi)l Boon grace the nicees. On this floor is the bathroom. It is finished with attestant, with extra large tub, is well lighted and ventilated. One could wonder for an honr in the halls and moms of this floor and gaze with increasing interest on the fine carvings and moulding. To the front is a large potfco, yell protected with railing and
will make an excellent place for sight seeing on the streets. The atic is large, well lighted, and such a tsnoas will prove of valne to the family. The tower is a neat structure, and sets off the beauty of the building viewed from the street From there a good view of the city can be had, and also a view of the river, and the hills, bluff, and valleys to the westward.
The whole house throughout beats the marks of luxury. Nothing bnt fine taste could plan such a structure.' Everything is solid, substantial, and while fine, has not a showy appearance.
The basement of the model building is in keeping with the first and second floors. The whole building is fitted with Bteam radiators. The steam is generated in the basement in an automatic steam heater. It 'burns hard coal, is fashioned like a base-burner, and only needs attention once every twenty-four houra and then it only requires two scuttle fulls of coal. The boiler requires several hundred gallons of water, and the beauty of it is that it only requires attention once every three or four months. Only one galgon ef water is lost in a month. The steam generated iB sent through the pipes and returns condensed.
Near the boiler room is the laundry room. No laundress could wish for anything more convenient A large cistern is near by, and with a touch of the thumb water can be supplied for laundry purposes and all waste water can be tnrned into the sewer. The sewer connections and gas pipes are perfection, and are arranged with the greatest care.
As one wanders through the structure the thought cannot be dispelled that those who are to occupy it should certainly be contented, happy. It will be luxuriously furnished, with that taste which good judgment can dictate. The prevailing idea seems to have been contentment for its occupants and itsguestp.
The plan was drawn by Mr. W. H. Floyd, tbe architect, who has of .late done so much to improve the architecture of Terre Haute residences. He was also general superintendent, and all the work was under his immediate supervision. The Dunbar Hardware company furnished all the hardware and glass. Frank Prox was the plumber, and putin the steam fittings. Coffin & West were the plasters, and Russell & Revese the brick work. The work is a credit to the above firms.
If any one desires to go through the house Dr. Pence will be pleased to show them through to-morrow or next day.
