1 A JBedift—JMttier announced that the death of Prince Frederick Charles was not due to apoplexy, as was announced, but was actually caused by his wife shooting him. He is said to have been beating her with unusual severity when she shot him to save her own life. The paper created no great surprise, much lessindig-.-nation. This does not speak well for the digdity and reputation of royalty.

The honor bestowed upon the memory of General Grant in this city, yesterday, would have been worthy of a mnch larger city. Business in the afternoon was entirely suspended.

Cuba and Spain may lead to introduction of the disease in the West Indies. Should this occur, southern American porta would be most exposed to the centagion. There is an urgent need of vigilance, for should the disease obtain a foothold in any of our cities its ravages mi ht be terrible before the scourge could be stamped out.

The business men and citizens of Evansville are very much excited and indignant over the proposed discontinuance of the river-mail service. The attention of the second assistant postmaster general, who attends to these matters, has been called to the injustice of the proposed change. A remonstrance has betn numerously signed. The protest is bas fed on the following reasons: "Because the river territory on the above route is local to Evansville, Ind., and depends on it for its jobbing -merchandise supplies and manufactures, made so by our river postal arrangements, which, if discontinued, will be of great detriment to us and our business interests."

The 15,000 ex-canfederate soldiers now holding a reui.ion in the Texas passed resolutions of condolence on the death of General Grant. ThU would have been commendable action had not occasion been taken to exalt Jeff Davis. The latter act is of far more significance than the other. Human feeling dictates that bitterness should cease at the grave. The respect shown 'o the dead hero has no political significance, yet the glorification of Jeff Davis, on the contrary, certainly has. Judge Beagan in the rashness of his harangue thus eulogized Davis: "The confederate chieftain developed an amount of patriotism, self-denial, and devotion rarely witnessed in the history of man," and added "that the curse of God should fall oh the southern people if they ceased to love, honor, respect, and venerate Jefferson Davis." Taking Eeagan's sentiments as representing the true southern feeling, the expressions of the south of more friendliness for the north lacks sincerity.

Well, last night I saved him from being killed. The Fourth ward boys had him down and they were kicking him to pieces when 1 came up."

Well, that's nothiag new," said the reporter. "Yes,.it is!" replied the fat policeman "Yeu see, I took him up, and I charged him with being d-unk and disorderly and fighting on the streets. I knew he was good for ten dollars at least. Now, what do you think he did? Why, when Justice Power asked* him what he was fighting about he said he heard three men talking against Grant, and, as he had fought under him, he just fought them. He said he was proud of his black eye, and Justice Power discharged him." "There isn't a tramp," added the fat policeman, "who doesnt claim that he got arunk or got beaten in memory of Grant. I wish the funeral was ever, for the tramps and bum men would then be hard up for an excuse."

TALK ABOUT TOWN.

THE CONSTABLES.—In conversation with an old Terre Haute constable yester day, a reporter gleaned some information pertaining to the work of making collections tl^at was new. The old constable said that the slowest class of men to pay collections were the doctors, for the reason that they, themselves, were never able to collect in full the accounts owing them. Mechanics were said to be slow pay, but as a rule easy to collect from when they had the where-with-all to pay, "Merchants as a rule pay promptly," said the constable, "though there were numerous instances where "put-offs" were frequent among them. Ladies in business pay, as a rule very promptly— especially when the bill is presented by an officer. Railroad men are difficult to collet from, owing probably to the fact of their being constantly on the move, and seldom 'come-atable.' .Do sporting men pay promptly Well—yes particularly debts of honor.' Ministers pay well every cent—when they have the money. The police? Yes, they are, as a rule, good pay though once in a great while, an exception is found, The saloon keepers pay, as a rule, just as soon as the bill is presented. The business of making collections, at this particular time is unavoidably poor. The fact is, times are hard and but little money is afloat. You can't push a man tj the wall who wants to pay and -has no immediate means of paying. It won't do, sir. What I have told you has been drawn from my personal observation, and experience as a co'lector. You can rest assured it is about true."

THE PHYSICIANS.—At the last meeting of the Vigo Medical society a committee of three was appointed, to be known as a "committee of inquiry." This committee will examine the records and learn the names of all physicians who have taken out license according to law and to enforce the law on those who have not. The state law requires all who have not a diploma to have practiced medicne in the state three years and attended lectures, and those who have not attended lectures to have practiced medicine in the state ten years. "Will this shut out all the quacks?" an Express reporter asked a well-known physician. "No. Those who have quacked in the state for ten years can keep on quacking. There is old Doctor He doesn't known as much about medicine as my pup. He never attended a college, has never heard a lecture, and yet the law cannot compel him to cease practicing in the state." "Just picked up the profession?" "That's it. Just picked it up." "How many physicians are there in the city who will be unable to secure license? "Seven. Some of them may pull through. The Medical Society will not only watch the physicians in the city, but in the country."

VACANT ROOMS.—There are said to be more unoccupied houses of all classes at this season in Terre Haute than at any time for the past five years "Are rents coming down?" was asked yesterday of a real estate man. "Not'as a rule," was the reply "the time is approaching and is near at hand, when the demand for houses ill be greatly increased and it will be much easier to secure our prices in the fall, than it would by bringing rentals down to any considerable extent now and then advance prices in the fall. No, rents will not take a general tumble this

THE RECENT STORM.—A gentleman who arrived yesterday from the up-river country, informed a reporter that but little rain had fallen north of Terre Haute, that the streams were low and the river falling and perfectly free from drift matter. The river at this point was falling yesterday, jypd very rapidly. Further south tha Wabash, since Thursday last, has been booming with high water.

Niagara Becoming Popular Again. Niagtrs Gazette. Since the islands have been opened free to the public they have been crowded as they used to be when the toll was low and the park less inviting. Tbe heretofore crowded park is thos relieved. Thousands who have heretofore refiained from visiting the most attractive spot at Niagara, now spend hours in the cool shades of the isjands. The hopes that a free Niagara would restore the popularity of this resort seema to a considerable extent realized.

Nebraska has now about 250,000 acres of growing forests, in which have been set 600,000 young trees. Besides this there have been planted over 12,000,000 fruit trees, over 2,500,000 grape vines, a vast number of berry bushes and plants and countless quantities of ornamental shrubs.

The Goshen (N. Y.) police force has been supplied with rawhide whips, to be carried during the daytime instead of the ordinary locust clubs. Owing to the ease and safety with which they can be wielded, it is said they inspire more terror among evildoers than the old-fash-ioned clubs.

Fuel is cheap in the Puget Sound region, sugar is dear, and the climate adapted to the growth of the sugar beet, Under these promising conditions a company has been formed to start sugar works in that region, and have contracted with farmers for 25,000 tons of beets annually for five years, at $4.50 per ton.

In favorable seasons California counts its honey crop by the thousand tons, and bee-keepers find a good profit when exr tracted honey commands no more than four or five cents per pound, and comb honey seven or eight cents.

There have been fewer weddings this year, it is said, than the oldest inhabi tant remembers, and he thinks the rosebud garden of girls needs sadly a thinning out.

Owing to the lowness of water in the Merrimack river, several mills along the banks that run by water have had to resort to steam. In discussing the situation the Lawrence (N. H.) American remarks "It seems a settled fact that far less water flows in the Merrimack now than years ago, and that it is constantly decreasing. It is then only a matter of time when all the mills along the river must run altogether by steam."

The "Big Woods" of Minnesota well deserve the name, for they cover 5,000 square miles, or 3,200,000 acres of surface. These woods contain only hard wood growths, including white and black oak, maple, hickory, basswood, elm, Cottonwood, tamarack, and enough other varieties to make an aggregate of over fifty different kinds. The hard wood tract extends in a belt across the middle of the state, and surrounding its northeastern comer is an immense region covering 21,000 square miles, or 13,440,000 acres.

At the Durbar at Rawal Pindi an amusing incident occurred which some regarded as symbolical of the whole Durbar. Among the presents given for the Ameer's son was a mechanical bird, but when wound up it refused to sing. In the press of other matters it was forgotten, but in the middle of the ameer's speech protesting to Lord Dufferinhis devotion to England, the bird, having recovered from the effects of overwinding, began its tune, and Abdurranman's expressions were delivered to the accompaniment of the sham canary.

An English lady who has been visiting Canada expresses in the Pall Mall Gazette the opinion that "a judicious and gradual influx of highly cultivated English women into CaAda and the United States would be a great boon to those countries as it would be a relief to Great Britain." Her reason for this opinion is thus stated: "Although the ladies in the older cities of the North American continent are, with scarcely any exceptions, superior to English gentlewomen in brain power, in clearness of mental visions, in common sense, in practical, sound judgment, and in general intelligence, yet we misB in them that indefinable charm which always clings to a highly cultivated European*"

A REVEREND RASCAL.

B. Fletcher in the Rola of a Baptist Minister Marries a Third Living Wife. Williamsburg (Ky. Special.

About March 1st two young men came here from the south as traveling preachers. They were unacquainted with any one, but producing papers showing they were regu 1 arlyprd ained Baptist ministers, they were taken in by their brethren and well treated. Their names were G. U. McGraw and J. B. Fletcher. They said they were trying to get means to go west with. They held several meetings here, which were well attended, as Fletcher was a very good speaker. They remained here few days, and then went into the southwest part of the county on Jellico creek, where they have since been. About two months ago, after due courtship, Fletcher married a Miss Martha West, daughter of respectable parents. They lived happily together, the husband reaching the good word in the school ouse and seemed to be an earnest Christian. Last week a young man came here from Chestnut Gap, Ga., and hearing Fletcher spoken of, said he believed he had seen both him and McGraw that they had been in Georgia, and that Fletcher had married' there.

This was a revelation. Fletcher's brother Baptists began an investigation, which resulted in finding that he not only had a wife Georgia, but-one in North Carolina, where he came from. Last Friday a warrant was issued for his arrest, and placed in the hands of Sheriff Meaders. Fletcher got wind of what was coming, and slept in a school-house Friday night, and Saturday morning struck out for more congenial climes. Sheriff Meaders was on his track, however, and captured the reverend rascal about 9 o'clock. He cursed loudly when arrested, and begged to be let ofl. He wanted the sheriff to give him a start of six steps, and would then take his chances of getting away or being shot. He was brought before Judge Davis, who, after a brief examination into the facts, bound him over to the Circuit court in the sum of $500, which he could not give, and he went to jail Your correspondent saw him in his cell yesterday, and he admitted the facts as stated, pleading, however, his ignorance of the law, and supposed that he could have a wife in every state, but not two in the same state. He said if they didn'f send him up for more than three years, the lowest penalty, he didn't care. He is far from being a handsome man, and no one would ever take him for a preacher. He claims to be a graduate of Moravian Falls college, N. C., and is about thirtysix years old. He will remain in jail till October, when he will probably have his trial. His crime has caused much feeling in the church here, especially in the country, where he was looked upon as a second Paul.

VIGILANTES REPULSED.

Three of the Party Shot by Their Wonid he Victims. EUREKA SPRINGS, Ark., August 8.—

The village of Green Forest, in the east

Ere

art of this county, was the scene of on February 2d. One J. P. Young and Archibald Young, his son, it is sup posed, were in possession of evidence tending to show by whom and in what manner the building was fired. In June the Youngs were arrested for larceny, but were acquitted. After their acquittal a mob visited them and gave them till August 1st to leave the state under penalty of death. The Youngs sold their farm and moved to Eureka Springs. At early dawn Thursday, twentyfour horsemen from Green Forest rode into the outskirts of the city, where the Youngs lived, ana without warning fired into the building, the bullets passing through a wall where the wife and two children wera, without injuring them. The Youngs at once seized Spencer rifles, with which they were armed, and returned the fire, keeping it up until the assailants were beaten off. Three men in the mob were wounded. One man, named Laurence, had his right hand shot badly, so as to necessitate -amputation. Thomas Enos was shot in the mouth, breaking the jaw, and a man named Faye was wounded in the side. The mob then departed, put tlie three wounded men in a wagon, and drove for home. Young at once came to town and swore out warrants for the larger part of the mob, whom he lmew, and the officers are after them. ...Peculiar Markings of a Child.

DAYTON, Q., August 8.—A child born of respectable German parents last week is curiously marked. Jet black spots varying in size from a pin head to a half dollar, partly cover the body. The left foot is all black. About two-thirds of the body is white. The marks resemble those on a coach dog.
