Bead the new serial story written for the Express by a young lady of Terre Haute to begin in next Sunday's Exprefs*

Every township trustee should come to the front—not as a rascal—but as an honest man with a fu'.l statement of his financial transactions as trustee.

I 3*TP' The board of County Commissioners 111 various counties are calling upon th.e trustees for itemized statements of indebtedness. The Vigo|commis8ioners are in session. Let them ask for such statements from the trustees in this county.

Judge Mack may not be pleasing the org&n of the party to which he belongs or the leaders in that party. No doubt he did. not consult them, but all of this forms excellent ground for (he presumption that he is now pursuing the right course.

In the death of Claude DeBruler, of Ev&nsville, Indiana journalism loses one of its most prominent characters, and a wide circle of friends regret the loss of one whose even-tenjpered, cheerful and frank disposition made him a universal favorite.

Will Mayor Kolsem join Judge Mack, and call a special meeting of the police board to give the pplice instructions as regards the 11 o'clock law The regular meeting time of the board is the first Monday in each month. Therefore his honor the mayor should call a special' meeting.

The Gazette snubs Judge Mack, and after clumsily patting Prosecutor Henry on the back, tells him to devpte his energies at the present meeting of the grand jury to making unlicensed saloons pay up. Judgte Mack told the grand jury to enforce the law that requires the closing of saloons at II o'clock at nijht. The Gazette gives the prosecutor taffy, and tells him to take the grand jury on a different trail for game.

The people 'say to the prosecutor. and the grand jury, enforce'all the laws.

There is more ignoraiicte and misapprehension about the law governing the finances of the county than there is about any other one subject of national law. It is also true that there is more unreliable and wholly intenable theories about the finances than about any other subject, For instance there & a general belief that the law requires the issue of the one and two dollar notes. The law is mandatory as to the amount of United States notes that shall be maintained, but it is discretionary with the secretary of the treasury as to the denominations this amount shall be placed in, only reserving that all de nominations less than one dollar shall be in silver. The purpose in stopping the printing of the one and two dollar bills is to put the dollar of the daddies in cir culation.

We are led to Infer that until the Democrats gained control of the city council last spring their.republican predeoessois never failed to enforce with unerring precision the state law closing saloons at 11 o'clock. ThiB muBt be so because it emanates from the same fountain of financial wisdom and authority on the etefnal van ties which calculated 2 per cent, of (25,000 as $8,000 and, having made the remarkable assertion, would rather lose its character for veracity than correct the calculation —[Gazette.

There is much that is mystifying in this to the reader. It needs the service of one who can fathom the'indirection of tortuous mind. Our esteemed contemporary refers to the

EXPRESS

when Jit

tays "fountain of financial wisdon." but the blanked fool relying on the traditional tenet of provincial journalism thinks he can ignore a daily centemporary and' yet refer to it. None but those who have 'constipated minds are in these days play ing that foolish trick that fifty years or so ago was considered smart in the Bung town Bugle.

The Gazette, our esteemed contemporary, would not have \its readers believe that it condescends to mention the Ex-press-but would at the same time say that the Express once said 2 per cent, of $25,000 was $3,000. This statement is like nearly all, except those made by the Chicago type foundry,' that appear in the Gazette and. is a plain instance of misrepresentation or worse. The indirection and ingenuity required in this particular misrepresentation excites anew our hitherto high admiration for that, quality in our esteemed contemporary, the daily Gazette (only 15 cents a week.)

The Gazette in plain English would say that the Express had said the delinquent t&x collections in this city amounted to $25,000, and that the ordinance of the fool democracy giving the new democratic treasurer 2 per cent, on collections. of delit quent tax would amount to $3,000 a year.

The "Expfttfs had said that the ordin ance would increase the pay of the city treasurer from $4,000 to between $6,000 and $7,600 a year, and here the $3,000 are obtained, the Gazette, e. c., 15 cents a week, delivered by carrier, fixing the $25,000 amount to suit itself, and imgly-

All the same, Judge Mack wants the law enforced, and the Gazette will not aid him.

Jndson, the new United States treaS' urer, is making a miserable display of himself in his frantic.effort to get up a financial scare about the silver dollar. He has done nothing since he came into office but loaf abont the New York banks and give to the gold standard newspapers in terviews Which were intended to make the people believe that unless the coinage of the silver dollar is stopped gold will be at a premium. Thanks to the good sense of the people and the laws of trsde, a mis chievoud man in the position of United States treasurer can not cause any great disaster to the finances of the country.

this is the first

expression on the subject that I have met in print but Irom Professor Shide's comments I notice that some 'one gave it a parting shot in last Saturday's Mail. 1 at once procured the Mail, and have just finished reading Mr. Thomas Gradgrind'e paper, and as I place his views beside those of Professor Shide, I say to myself: "I am glad those words have been Spoken through the dull/ press."

Earih represents a class. Professor Shide represents the professional class, and 1 am sure I regard his opinions wi(h becoming deference. Every one who has achieved a degree of eminence in his rrofession looks upon all the work of his department £n life with the closest scrutiny and the most careful criticism. It is' only natural, therefore, that Professor Shide should want the study of music, if taught at all, to be tanght in the .very beet manner. Tbe .work to be well done, he says, would require a music teacher for each school building. This, he admits, we cannot afford. He next suggests that each teacher in the common schools must be able to teach singing under the guidunce of a supervisor. To have each school teacher a good music teacher would be very desirable. These musicians, with a supervisor at their bead, would certainly do effectual work. But the system would necessarily be as expensive, if not more so, than the one'we have had. While, if every teacher of the common branches is required to be a proficient music- teacher, the profession of teaching must lose many who would be valuable teachers in all branches bat music. And while at present all may not be good music teachers, very, many of our city school teachers are able to teacq singing, simply because they have added to great or little natural ability the musical instruction which our city school has given them. In the olden time, if the teacher had the gift of song, he taught the children to sing fotherwise they must be silent the livelongtday. Mrs. Gould has been a leader not of tlie children alone, but of the teaohers, who have with her leadership done work which is certainly worth more than five cents to the pupils, even if they have had but one lesson personally from Mrs. Gould every two we^ks. Prof. Shide "saya the school board "did wisely to discontinue the music, because it was not taught the proper way." I wonder if all of our professional music teachers agree with Prof. Shide? #Mr. Thomas Gra-igrind represents.another •lass. The people of this class object to music because they think it calls for money, and does not give value for the money received. Granting the system taught to be all that could be desired, even then they consider the money so spent a useless expenditure, but this class

Six dollars on one hundred thousand dollars worth of property, for the musical education of several thousand children! When we look at this sum it looks very trifling, Compared with all the other expenses of our oity, necessary or unnecessary. Young gentlemen, of the city know what these expenses are better than

do and can yon find no larger or

more useless sam from which to economize? If you can not, our city government must be a model of economy and utility

I wish the children and their mothers could enter a plea on this question, but they can not. The children have no voioe, and their parents are too busy with the bread and butter question, I mean those parents whom it vitally concerns. Many parents who can have their children taught by private lessons are not much concerned, and while the masses have not the time or courage to ask a hearing, they teel this loss deeply. T. G. ignores the reasoning of his friend, and asks for "tangible results." Asks "how many of the children who have been taught music will adopt it as a money-making profession?" and answers, "Not one-half of one per cent." It may be true that very few children will make' money by entering the field of music as professionals, but I do know by sad experience that a knowledge of musio is an untold ad vantage in almost every life wdrk. Let us ldok at its tangible reenlts. Enter the first year and go from the Primary to the High school, and you will observe that the hour of Fong brings with it a unity of feeling which no other study can infuse. And all who know anything of the graded school system, must admit that unity .of thought and feeling is a great factor in its successful working. Music gladdens the heart of teacher and pupil, and all work better with glad hearts and the pupils are more amenable to discipline when happy. But perhaps it.is of little account that children are brought into closer sympathy with each other and with all their school work, by the study of harmonious Bound

Perhaps it is of little account that they jrield more readily to rfiscipline, and are thrilled with joy and hope by the songs they sing. Perhaps it is of little "account that one who has no especial talent for music is taught to sing, so that he can at least sing the Star Spangled Banner for himself. Perhaps it is of little ac count that a child of musical genius is not per mitted to reach the state of manhood, or womanhood, without the- foundation for a musical education. It may be that all these things are of small account in school work. Well, grant that they are then we will follow the children home and see what acoount the music is here. The children rush in, throw aside their wraps and take charge of baby and other children younger than themselves, and then tbe singing begins. As soon as children learn to'talk, if they have brothers' or sisters attending school, they will plead for the school songs. And many a tired mother can testify to the relief she has experienced by having the little onee, who have clung to her all day, qmnsed and -gratified in this way. The older brothers and sisters, who attend school, are looked up to by the little onee when they can bring home such pleasing evidence of their school work, and thus the caring tor the little onee is made light. In fact, the whole- family is delighted and eheored by the home concert. And some of the lowliest families in the land enjoy this privilege, when they could have no poesible -means of enjoying themselves with such natural and genuine pleasure if it were not furnished free. Wherever you find- a group of neighborhood children singing the school songs yon will seldom find them fight-* ing. I would like the children of our city taught to sing more, and quarrel and fight lees. can not help thinking that our musical

societies mqst owe much to the training some of the members have had in omr public schools. But if for no other reason, I would have music taught for its humanizing efieot on the community. I have heard sweet childish songs in hovels of orime and distress, and I knew that even though at that moment the singer slight not be comfortably clad or sufficiently fed, his heart was warm with school memories, and for the moment at least he was free from sin. Some children find warmth and comfort in the school room only, when cold, dark days appear.

Ho far as doll ir* and cento are conoerned, I think the oity gains a high rate of interest on the money expended for music. For I have observed its salutary influence on discipline ever sipoe it was introduced into the schools. It is amoral influence which can not be over-

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

WABHINGTON, D. C., September 8»—

TAMPERING WITH THE MAILS.

One of Postmaster Jones' tetter Carriers Caught Rifling a Registered tetter and Confesses Hts Guilt. Indianapolis Times.

A few days ago a registered letter, containing $10 and addressed to Schmidt Brothers, this city, mysteriously disappeared after passing through the registry*department of the Indianapolis postoffice. Other losses of a similiar character were reported, and, becoming convinced that one of the employes was proving recreant to his trust, the postoffice authorities instituted an investigation which has resulted in the capture and confession of the thief. Each carrier of the office has a separate case, numbered the same as his route, and into which ordinary letters are deposited for distribution. When these have been arranged, the carrier goes to the registry department and gives a receipt for any registered letters belonging to persons living on his route. Unless a man who handles such a letter can' show a receipt he is chargeable with its loss. It has been customary with the carriers, after receipting for registers, to place the sau.e in their cas^s among ordinary letters until they are ready to start on thtir trips. It was ascertained, when the first theft was discovered, that the letter had been stolen from thecase, which was conclusive proof that the dishonest person was a carrier or some other employe having access to the interior of the office. Decoy letters were, therefore, placed in the mails and a close watch kept upon suspected employes.

Yesteraay aftefnoon Charles Noe, a carrier, appointed under the new regime, was seen to abstract a lettefr from another man's case and disappear into the' basement. Colonel Doad, assistant -postmas-ter,-followed and caught him in the act of opening the letter. Noe was placed in custody and chnfe&ed that he had purloined twelve letters in the above de scribed manner. He was at once taken before United States Commissioner Milli gan, who remanded him to jail in default of $1,000 bond.

THE SILVER "DOLLAR.

The Proposed Compromise on the Basts of Mr. Warner's Proposition. Washington Special.

The president's attitude in regard to the silver question was defined in his famous letter to the silver men in congress last winter, but it is known that the bill is now being prepared in the treasury department, under the direction of Secretary Manning and Treasurer Jorden, which contemplates a compromise on the basis of a plan suggested by Comptroller Cannon in his report, and afterwards pro posed by Congressman Warner, of Ohio The coinage of the standard dollar is to be stopped, and the consent of the silver men is to be won to this proposition by a continuation of. the purchase of bullion. Certificates are to be issued representing the market value of bullion at the time of its purchase, and these certificates are to be redeemable at the quotation reigning on the date of presentation.

In other words, silver-will be used as a part of the circulation at its true value, and not as at present, in coins worth eighty-four cents, which pass for a dollar. All the details of this bill have not yet been completed, but it is believed that it will be acceptable to those who would fight an unconditional suspension of the standard dollar coinage. It provides a constant demand for products of the mines. It gives the market prices, as at present, to the owners of silver, and it CQPtemplates the issuance of certificates for the bullion purchased, which will bear on their face an indication of what they are actually worth. The denominations of these certificates have not yet been finally determined, but small issues will be avoided if possible.

Attempt to Burglarize a Greenfield "Bank, Special to the Indianapolis Journal. GREENFIELD, I'nd., September 8.—An unsuccessful attempt was made early this morning to rob the safe of the Greenfield Banking company. The knob and dial of the combination lock were considerably battered, but the efforts to open the safe were defeated. Finding that they could not open the safe, they wrote in large letters on the counter, "Good-bye hard luck," and left. They then broke a glass in the front door of Hart Thayer's dry goods store, adjoining the bank, but beyond the loose change and a few articles of wearing apparel, took nothing. There is no clew, but they were evidently inexperienced hands.

BOMB,

Ga., September 9*—Captain

Coulter, for many years a pilot on the Coosa river, took his four children, ranging- in years from 4 to 14 years, in a bateau yesterday afternoon and started down tuo Coosa to meet his wife and oldest daughter, who were comiDg up on a steamer.
