A Delightful Entertainment at the Reside nee of Ransom Brotherton. On Friday evening Ransom Brotherton's home, on the state road, was a scene of gaiety. The young people of Fort Harrison and Otter Creek prairies assembled in costume and masque. By ballot the prizes were awarded to the one wearing the prettiest costume and also the most comical. Louite Curtis took the cake and standard for the prettiest costume- as Goddess' of Morning. Her dress was lavender silk under dress with white tarletore over dress spangled with silver tiara. Her sister Yinnie had an equal number of votes, but lost the cake, by cutting a lower caid when deciding the vote. Miss Vinnie's costume was a court dress of Qu?en Elizabeth's time. It was arose pink guilted under dress with white nun's veiling over dress, lace Vandyke, and white mob cap. George Foulkes took the prize for the most
Comical.
He
represented a heathen Chinese and carried out his part in fine style. Many other beautiful and comical costumes were worn. s&The statement previously made that there was dancing was a mistake.

RAILROAD NOTES.
The E. & I .'8 "White River Bridge—The Commercial "Wire Over the E. & I.— Terre Haute Freight Business.
During last year fifty-two new railroads were chartered in Kansas. Danville News: Thomas Stites has been assigned to C. & E. I. engine No. 21, as fireman-
Danville News: Locomotive No. 16, of the C. & E. I., recently out of the shops, has taken the name "Dandy 19."
During
the first week in January the
E. & T. H. earned $12,677, an increase of $165 over the corresponding week of 1885.
The National Association of "General Baggage Agents will meet in Cincinnati today.
The Louisville & Nashville has decided to
change
the gauge of its line south
of the Ohio river to standard the coming spring. The Louisville Car Wheel works recently contracted with the Louisville & Nashville for a year's supply of car wheels.
The new freight locomotives ordered for the Logan will weigh about 9,100 pounds. It is urelcss to purchase light freight engines, for the idea seems to be to increase the carrying capacity of cars.
Indianapolis Journal: R. A.Campbell, general ageiit of the Evansville & Terre Haute, is in the city. He reports business light on the E. & T. H., but prospects are favorable to an early improvement
The commercial wire on the E. & I. from this city to Worthington remains unused. No date, so far as known in the company's office here, has been agreed upon for the B. & O. Telegraph confany to take charge.
At a meeting held yesterday at Memphis of the stockholders of the Chesapeake, Ohio & Southwestern railroad, a unanimous vote was recorded for its lease to the Newport News & Mississippi Valley company.
Pears were entertained a few days ago that the bridge across White river on the E. & I. wculd be swept away when the ice broke. A large force of men were put to work, and it is thought to be sufficiently strengthened to withstand the breaks-
Indianapolis Journal: William R. McKeen, president of the Vandalia, and D. W. Minshall, of Terre Haute, were in the city yesterday for a conference with H. R. Duval and T. A. Lewis, regarding the car trust matter, in which they are all more or less interested.
An election will be held in Pierson township on the 2d of March to determine whether aid shall be granted the E. & I. road to build a branch from Lockport by the way of Centerville to the E. & T. H. road at or near Shelburn. Pierson township is one of the three' townships in this county that have no railroad
The Pennsylvania railroad, which has become the purchaser of the Philadelphia Midland railroad, is making preparations to put that line in operation to Newton Square, thirteen miles from Philadelphia. Preliminary work is being done on that portion of the road from Newton Square to West Chester.
During the past year less freight has been carried out of Terre Haute than for several years. The Nail works have been shut down, and the flour mills have not run to their fullest capacity. Two years ago mills of every description were pushed, with business, and the railroads took a great deal of freight from here.
The railroad builders who have not yet supplied the rails for the coming year are far from pleased with the prospects. Buyers who have purchased small lots within a week have in some cases .paid as high as $36 a ton, and intimations are given out that large lots will be sold at the same figure within a month or two.
A special from Matamoras says it is stated that a prominent business house there has received notice from their Lon don correspondent that the Mexican National Construction company has borrowed money from Mattkiessen & Co., of London, to continue the construction of that road, and that work will be resumed inside of three months.
The directors of the Missouri Pacific Railroad company have addressed a circular to the stockholders, in which they say that to provide the necessary means by which the control or ownership of the various branch toads necessary to the proper development of the Missouri Pacific system can.be obtained, it is proposed to increase the capital stock of the company $6,000,000, and to offer thtf same to stockholders at par.
There are some fifteen car works vaiiously situated from«Buffalo on the east to Chicago and St. Charles, Mo., on the west, which compete with each other for western orders. These works have now in hand orders for about 12,000 cars. They can only take orders for delivery by May 1st, for about 1,250 more cars. The entire capacity of the majority ot them is filled up to that time.
The Vandalia will this week receive from the Pittsburg locomotive works one of the five engines recently contracted for. Four are ten-wheel freight engines, weighing forty-seven tons, and one a heavy passenger engine, weighing fortyfive tons. All modern improvements of any value are to be introduced in their construction. They are built on Master Mechanic Prescott specifications,, and it is claimed will be the best proportioned engines run in the west.
Danville News: Contractors and purchasing agents are now buying cross ties at lower prices than they could five years ago, notwithstanding the statements that the timber lands in Indiana and Illinois are becoming more valuable. Contractors are paying but 28 cents apiece for cross-ties 6 by 8 inches, 8 feet long. There are 32 feet of lumber in each cross-tie, consequently ordinary lumber, which sells at $1 per 100 feet, yields more money than does the same number of feet in cross-ties.
The Baldwin Locomotive works business was exceedingly dull during 1885. Their capacity is twelve locomotives per week, their average for two years previous
to
1884 having been very nearly that, but
fell ofi during the current year to less than three per week. During the first eight months they had very little work and turned out only two per week, but since the beginning of September they have increased threefold, averaging six per week, with every indication that for some time to come they will' maintain or increase that number. Mr. Converse reports favorably on the outlook, but fails to see anything beyond a eturn to the normal condition of aflairs, although the change of gauge on the southern roads will probably lead to a considerable demanu for new locomotives. They are now'shipping ten narrow gauge engines to Queenland, but the foreign demand is not large at present. Mi?,
A
Suit for Damages.
Mrs. "Betsy A. Robertson has begun suit in the Superior court against Mrs. Sarah S. Sheumaker fof damages. The plaintiff's complaint sets forth that she is the owner of a lot in lilbert's place. Adjoining her lot on the south (he defendant owns property, and that defendants has so constructed her house that the water from the eaves falls on to plaintifi's lot. The water causes great dampness, and has flowed into the cellar on several occasions, making it damp and causing the wall to fall in. She claims damages to the amount of $500.

THE COMMISSIONERS.
The New Draw—The Interior Finish
ot
tbe New Court House,
The connty commissioners met Monday forenoon, the full board present. Nothing of much importance will ooiue before the board for several days. "Will the question of anew draw at the wagon bridge come before the board this term?" an Express reporter asked Commi&ioner Black. "I think not"' said he. "The plans have not been completed." "Will anything of importance con nected with the new conrt house be discussed?" "Possibly. Mr. Hannaford, the architect, is at work on the plans for the interior finish. I cannot say when he will have them completed.
Cheeky Pauper.
Monday a pauper at the poor farm came to the city and called on a county commissioner. He demanded that the commissioner give him money to have his shoes repaired. This the commis» sioner refused to do. "If you don't, I'll tell you what I'll do," said the pauper. "Well, what will you do?" asked the commissioner. "I'll sue the county for damages. Some one stole a shirt from me at the and if I don't get my boots see a lawyer and sue the county,for damages for the theft of my shirt."
poor farm, a repaired I'll
The commissioner thought his caller was rather cheeky, as the county purchased the shirt for him. He was told to sue.
Harmon, the Murderer
Prosecutor D. W. Henry returned yesterday evening from Indianapolis, where he went for the purpose of making a personal examination of George Harmon, who killed Wesley Carpenter, and who, for several weeks, has been an inmate of the insane asylum. The asylum authorities are of the opinion that Harmon is insane and that has been his mental condition ever since his commitment to the asylum. Mr. Henry had along talk with Harmon at the asylum. "I had .thought all along that Harmon was notr insane, but I have changed my "opinion," said the prosecutor. "I consider him now a madman."
A Ghostly Eire Alarm*
Early yesterday .morning the watchmen in the various fire houses in the city were startled by the sudden boom .on the alarm gongs of one stroke. There is no box No. 1 out, nevertheless, the apparatus was in readiness to go out at a moments warning. No other stroke''came in and the boys who had been aroused from their beds were compelled. to return to their beds without a run. How the alarm came in no one knows ^unless some one had possessed himself of a key to afire alarm box and sent in one stroke in pure malicious mischief. The superstitious members of the department are of the opinion that it was a "ghostly call."
A Fortune-Teller's Influence. Mr. John R. Courtney, of Crawfordsville, was in the city last evening. Mr. Courtney, who is counsel for Jack Henning, the Rockville murderer, says that Henning has maintained good spirits up to a recent date. His trial had been set for the 28th inst., but Henning, in the meantime, has consulted a fortune-teller, who has advised him to secure a continuance of his case. Since then Henning has shown a morbid uneasiness of manner.
Mr. Courtney will also defend Chas. Roberts, whose trial Occurs February 4th at Rockville. 'SV'
