We hear many references to the pauper labor of Great Britain but tt^e following figures show_that even in that land of low wages frugality accumulates capital. In England, Scotland and Wales^here were 1853 building societies with total assets of $245,000,000. The capital invested in thorough savings banks is $472,000,000 and in' other prudential and provident societies, in England and Wales alone. $110,000,000 moking a grand aggregate of $827,000,000 which probably belongs to the small tradesmen and working classes while it is a good showing it will not exceed the savings of Massachusetts and New York.

The Miller affair simply serves to again attract public attention to the demoral ized condition of the police force. The charge as preferred against him is neglect of duty in not reporting the finding of missing article, but by implication the charge is that of stealing. Ii he is guilty of neglect of duty as found by the board, Odell, his companion, is likewise guilty. If there was cause for the suspension Saturday night or Sunday there was cause for it a week ago when the facts were first made known at headquarters,

But of all the uncomplimentary features in the case the^post sever is the reflection upon the rompetency of those officers who kept the three boys locked in jail lor several days charged with stealing a sein that was lying inacellar where it was placed by Policeman Miller.

But to cap the climax this same board that suspends a policeman for neglect duty refuses to perform its own duty by ordering the police to enforce the 11 o'clock law.

Personal spite and bickering, factional quarreling and the fool democracy in supreme control the policing of Terre Haute is getting to be a go-as-you-please affair.

The Cincinnati Enquirer published, the fiicsmile of a letter written by M. Hal stead, editor of the Cincinnati Commer-cial-Gazette to the Hon. Salmon P. Chase in February, 1863. The comments there in made on Lincoln,—whose assassination would, .the writer says, be "doing God's service"—on. Grant, Sherman and others are as brutal as one could expect to read in the revamped correspondence of the most desperate rebel. Halstead does not deny the genuine ness of the letter but pleads that in those exciting and trying times many men whose loyalty was undoubted men in fact whose loyalty was intense, be came irritated at what they thought were the blunders of those who were in com' mand.

No doubt such was the impulse that dictated this letter to Chase and Hal stead's habit of being severe in the manner "of expressing an opinion led him to exaggerate his sentiments. The reproduction ot the letter can Dot but injure him because no one will take these facts into consideration. It is a warning to those who are apt to write impulsively and suggests the good advice that all writing should be allowed to get cold and then be revised,

New Orleans Times-Democrat. Mr. George W. Cable, in a letter to a friend in this city, announces that he intends to take up his residence permanently in the village of Northampton, Mass., some seventeen miles north of Springfield and near Mt. Holyoke. He describes the place as one of great beauty, with the Connecticut river winding around the base of Mt. Tom and escaping away toward "Springfield and Hartiord, clear as crystal. He says he has chosen Northampton for residence, however, mainly because it is a school and college town, and offers exceptional educational advantages 'to his children. In making this change of residence Mr. Cable says: "In these days of swift transit it is very little matter where a man eats and sleeps our congressional delegations, for instance, living most of the time in Washington, are not the less Louisianian. I read my New Orleans paper every day, and do not feel practically much farther off from my own city than when I lived on Eighth street. I intend to be much in the south, and to have my family see as much of it as possible. I love my native town and I owe much to the community in which I was reared."

Tha parties to the suit—which is in attachment—are. sisters, Mrs. Jones has been indebted pecuniarily to Mrs. Oldham, and also for board for some time. Yesterday Mrs. Jones packed her household effects preparatory to removal to Evansville, wherrf she intended to abide until she ceund find her hustfand, who is in'Kentucky or Tennessee. When she attempted to remove her baggage a writ of "attachment sworn out bj^. her sister, Mrs. Oldham, was served, her property was seized and carried away by a constable. Yesterday twenty-one witnesses, pro and con, told their stories in court and"a finding was procured for the plaintiff to the amount of $50 and costs. The case was nSl altogether devoid of in terest, and the interchange of compli' ment all around was carried on with earnestness and a strict regard for variety,

A-CLEVELAND AND HENDRICKS BADGE. —"Here is a Cleveland and. iftndricks badge I have worn on my coat since last fall," said a man at the corner of Sixth and Main streets, Sunday evening, to few friends, and he said he intended to wear it in the campaign of 1888. "I also wear a Cleveland and Hen. dricks badge," said a seedy-looking indi vidual, leaning against a lamp-post.* "On your coat or vest?" inquired one of the small crowd. "Neither. Since Cleveland and Hendricks were elected, work with me has been so biisk that I sat around home until I wore two big holes in my pants. The old woman put two big patches there. I call one patch Cleveland and the other Hendricks."

IN NEED OF NEW LEADERS,

How Gil Shanklin's Scheme Slight Bring Rice and Jewett to the Front. Indianapolis Journal. "I see that Gil Shanklin, of the Evansville Courier, is advocating the retirement of Hendricks, McDonald, and Voorhees from the leadership of the demo' cratic party in Indiana, because they are only qualified, by training and experi ence, to lead a minority, while now the aarty needs new men, with new ideas, to ead it in the new path that it is travel ing," remarked a politician at one of the hotels last evening in the course of a con. versation between several gentlemen, "Well," continued the speaker, "there may be something in the idea, but it will not be readily adopted. The only way to get rid of the old leaders is to defeat them or wait until they die off. With the democratic party, however, there is no question but that the men in Indiana who ar&best qualified for leaders are the youn$fmen and whatever success the party has achieved since the war has been through their efforts. Hendricks, McDonald and Voorhees have simply been figure-heads. For instance, there is Jim Rice. Why sir, he has been worth more to the demo cratic party in this state than any dozen other men. He has had the practical management of the two last campaigns in his hands, and those who know anything about the party. work know that the successes of 1882 and 1884 were due more to his scheming and management than to any other cause. Charley Jewett is one of the young men with pro. gressive ideas and with abilities to sustain them, who is sure to become a leader. If Shanklin's proposed reform should take root these are two of the men who would be sure to come to the front, at once. It is not beyond the pale of prob ability that Jewett will yet bob up, if Shanklin continues his agitation as a very formidable candidate for United States senator in 1887. He will be likely to have a great many warm friends amonf the members of the next legislature, anc he is the kind of a hustler that can get lots of votes when he goes after thfcm, Already there has been a great deal of talk about Jim Rice for governor in 1888 and if he should conclude that he woulc. like to have the nomination he knows how to get it. When Voorhees was here last week he said that he would really like to see Rice nominated for governor."

ANOTHER 'POSTOFFICE ROW.

The Perplexities That Surround Messrs Voorhees and Lamb In Making an Appointment at Crawfordsvllle. Crawfordsville Journal.

A stir was created among local demo, cratic statesmen last Monday morning by the announcement that Hon. John E, Lamb, United Slates district attorney and at one time a member of congress from this district, was in the city. The distinguished visitor came up from Terre Haute on the 8:14 train bearing in his hand the gold-headed cane that was voted him at St. Joseph's fair last fall by the money of Tom Foley and upon whose head he used it last week. The rotund form of Mr. Lamb hurriedly darted in and out among the local brethren, and it was with great difficulty that some of them were' permitted to touch even the hem of his garments. The postoffice embroglio seems to have been the"chief object of his mission. His perturbed countenance indicated that there was tribulation in the camp. How to conciliate John Booe in case the appointment was given to another was the perplexing question. His promise was out, and yet in the face of this pledge was the fact that Senator Voorhees desired to give the place to his old-time friend and —litical godfather, Harris Reynolds. le numerous other "hungry and thirsty" applicants stood but little show, although they had in times gone by shouted themselves hoarse* for Lamb. The praises they once s4ng have been turned to curses and he left the city with their wrathful maledictions. He was joined at the Junction by Senator Voorhees, and the two, accompanied by John Booe, left for Indianapolis on the 9:35 train. How matters were arranged with Booe, or whether they were adjusted at all is not known. It is generally believed that Voorhees will govern the appointment, and in that event Harris Reynolds will succeed that "offensive partisan," Sam Robinson, as postmaster. It is a beautiful democratic fight and re-

POLICEMAN SUSPENDED.

Officer Miller Given a Thirty I»y** Lay Off—Be ts Charged With Kegleet of Dpty—The Story, of JFUh SelnTThe

Menthly Report. The police commissioners met in regular session in the mayorV office yesterday morning. After the transaction of miscellaneous business a communication was read from Thos. Johnson, charging Officer Wm. Miller with neglect of duty. The communication set forth that on the 1st or 2d of the present month Mr. Johnson went fishing-with several friends, returning home in the evening. A minnow sein was left on the sidewalk in front of Johnson's saloon, corner of Fourth and Walnut streets. Officer Miller found the sein, took it to Tolberl's saloon, where it was placed in the cellar. Abotit the 17th the officer came to him and' asked him what he would give if the sein was recovered, and he said $2. Miller got the sein, but received no reward. Miller said he found the sein, took it to Tolbert's but forgot to return it.

Mr. Johnson testified to what was contained in the communication. After Miller returned the sein Mr.' Johnson told the affair to the superintendent of police. Miller told Johnson he was only joking, and intended to return the sein but forgot it.

Mayor Kolsem desired to make a statement. He Baid Mrs. Miller had been to see him, and interceded for her husband. She seemed to feel very badly about the occurrence, and claimed that it was all "a put up job."

Mr. Finkbiuer asked Johnson if he considered the matter fi joke. He said he did not. The sein was a borrowed one, and he had written to Pittsburg and obtained a price list to secure another.

Captain Vandever asked Mr. Johnson if he (Vandever) had persuaded him to file the charges against Officer Miller. Mr. Johnson said he did not remember if he (Vandever) did.

Dellie Wisenand, a bartender for John, son, said Officer Miller came to Johnson's saloon and asked Johnson if he would give a reward. Johnson said he would give $2. The witness went to Tolbert's saloon with the officer and got the sein. Miller told him he only took the seine for a joke.

A report was read from the police record stating that a sein had been stolen, and that three boys were arrested for it. The report gave the names of the parties from whom Johnson borrowed the sein as •wners.

Officer Miller was called on to give his version of the affair. He said that he. and Officer Odell were going home one morning after roll call. He found the sein in front of Johnson's saloon, and. took it to Tolbert's place. He told Odell that he would take it to Johnson the next day and "kid" him about it. He forgot about the occurrence until Mr. Odell spoke to him about it, and he went and got the sein and returned it. He had no intention of keeping it, and no idea of securing a reward. Mr. Miller said he did not hear the note of the arrqpt of the boys for stealing a sein read at roll call. If he had it would have reminded him of the sein at Tolbert's.

Commissioner Clift asked Officer Miller if he thought Captain Vandever had been trying to "down" him. Miller said he djd. Captain Vandever denied the charge, and said he recommended Miller to a position on the force. Commissioner Clift also statted that Captain Vandever recommended Miller.

Officer Odell was swern. He was with Miller when the sein was found. Miller said he would take the sein to Tolbert's and take it to Johnson's the next day. He asked Miller about the sein two weeks afterward, and Miller said: I forgot all about that/' Mr. Odell said he heard the note on the police record read in regard to the loss of the sein. Johnson's name was not mentioned in the note. He loooked at the book a few days ago and found "From Johnson's saloon" written after it, in a different hand and different ink. Police Clerk Overholtz said he made the addition^ but used different ink and a different pen. Officer Odell

Baid

that 'Captain

Vandever came'to him and asked him if there was not some understanding between them about the sein, if they did not expect to receive a reward and divide it" Odell denied that there was such understanding. He believed Officer Miller intended to return the sein when he found it.

Captain Vandever said he talked with Miller about the affair after Johnson reported it. Miller told him what he

Miller) told the commissioners. He also talked with Officer Odell, who also told the same story he had before the commissioners.

The board suspended Miller for thirty days. The mayor said he had investigated and found that an officer had aright to call on a citizen to assist in making an arrest. An officer asked for instruction on this point at the previous meeting.

The horse used by the sanitary officer will be turned over to the police department until such time as the sanitary officer may require it. The season has so far advanced that the sanitary officer has no further use for it.

Old Settlers' Meeting.

The committee heretofore appointed to fix upon a time and place for a general reunion of the old settlers, their descendants and friends, have arranged to have a monster barbecue and basket meeting at the fair grounds, east of the city, to last for three days, October 6th, 7th and 8th, and to extend a cordial invitation to all, old as well as young, not only to Vigo county but to all neighboring counties. Extensive preparations have already been made. Able speakers have been invited. Already our farmers have promised over one hundred head of live stock—beeves,

calves, sheep and hogs—to be barbecued on the grounda, and the supply of every thing edible will be prodigious.

This meeting coming off at a dull time for farmers, it is hoped that all will turn out, and give to themselves and families a real treat in meeting with old friends and acquaintances, and passing a few days of pleasure together. Remember that every person is invited without farther notice. Admission to the fair grounds free. THE ELEVEN O'CLOCK LAW,

Commissioner Coffin moved to postpone. Conftnissioner Brinkman seconded Mr. Coin's motion.

The clerk called tKe roll. The vote stood, on the motion to postpone: Ayes— Messrs. Brinkman and Coffin noes— Messrs. Clift and Finkbiner. The vote being a tie, the mayor voted in the affirm alive, thus postponing action. The mati ter will probahly be brought up at the next meeting.

A Costly Hunt.

Sunday morning, after roll call. Officers Goodpasture and Morgan concluded to go hunting. They secured a hand-car from the section boss of the west section of the Van, and having each borrowed a valuable shotgun, started west with L. Magarter, of No. 380 north First street. When in the middle of the trestlework between the city and Macksville, they were caught by a train. They tried to get the ear off the track, but failed. They jumped, and when the train struck the car it was thrown off the track an4. split in two pieces. The two borrowed guns were also 'damaged. The officers and their invited guest are now in debt to the amount of $140.

RENEWER.

It Is a medicinal preparation, and, at the same time, an elegant and cleanly toilet article. Its action upon the scalp Is healthful. It nourishes the glands which support the hair, and causes thin, dry hair to become thick, soft, and vigorous. It restores the color of youth to locks which -have become faded with age or disease and relieves and cures Itching, caused by humors of the scalp. Dr. George Gray, Nashua, N. H., writes: "It gives me pleasure to testify to the wonderful effects produced by Halt's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Benewer, as observed by me In very many cases. IT wnx CERTAINLY RXSTORB THE HAITI TO ITS ORTGUTAI, COLOR. It cleanses the head of dandruff, and leaves the hair soft, glossy, and beautiful." F. T. Sandhein, 1010 Spruco St., Philadelphia, Pa., writes: After*unavaIUngly trying a number of preparations to prevent my hair from falling out, and, realizing that I was fast becoming bald, I tried, as a last resort, Hall's Hair Renewer. I have used only four bottles of the Renewer, and am perfectly satisfied that It is the best preparation in the market for checking the falling out of hair, invigorating the hair roots, and promoting anew growth."
