AMUSEMENTS.

DADLOO AND PythlM.

The benevolent intentions of the Knights of PjthiM did not receive the co-operation last night which might have been expected. The attendance was small but the performers gave an improred representation of the play. The second act, which in some-respects was the best, and in which most of the amateurs appeared,showed that quite a number could carry parts excellently. Mr. U. 8. Laurie, who had the benefit of experience, gave Damon wiih much force and spirit. Mr. Robert Wureter developed decided dramatic ability. His fine voice, mat ly bearing and excellent recitation united to make Pytbifta a very piecing pwt. The Pyocisua of Mr. C. Clift was also excellent. The lines b* Messrs. O'Keilly and Budd were giver, irith effect and Mr. Griffith in h)8 brie, allowance in this act and longer pats»gs jewhere acted his part well. The play .s a trying one but tbe dignity and power with which it wsa rendered proved that the same performers can in otter teles win great applause.

RAILROAD "NEWS

The''Xiogan Trestle.—The I. A St. I-.'s Facillt eg at Fontenet. Mr. G. H. Preseott was in Logansport yesterday.

The E. & I. is placing telegraph instruments at Saline, Coal City and Riley. Heretofore the nearest telegraph offices have been Terre Haute and Worthington.

The Vandalia continues to ship immense quantities of ice from Lake Maxinkuckee. Some day the ice supply of the principal cities of Indiana will be obtained'at Maxinkuckee.

Trains passed over the Logan trestle yesterday that was broken Friday by a freight wreck. It was expected that the bridge would be gotten in repair by yesterday morning, but the men at work were compelled to quit Friday night on account of the cold.

The recent trip of the general manager of the Bee Line, the general passenger agent, and the general freight agents, over the road, gave rise to much speculation. The general manager sets it at rest by stating that it was a trip af inspection only. 0

The C. & E. I. is experiencing hard times on the north end of the line. Two passenger trains were snow bound at Kensington, yesteiclay. The high winds drifted the snow badly, and the cold was so intense as to almost freeze up the locomotives. All freight trains except the locals,' were abandoned yesterday on accent of the cold. Five car loads of Florida oranges bound for the north are held in the yards here.

The annual meeting of the Western Passenger agents will be held at the Gait house| Louisville, February 11th.

The Canadian Pacific has 3,527 miles of road in operation. Another railway is projected, which will be the most northern one in the world. It will be in Norway, and twenty-eight miles long, crossing the Kjolen Mountains at an elevation of 1,600 feet above sea level. The railway is being built by English engineers.

In the second week of January the Chicago & Eastern Illinois road delivered at Chicago 60,000 bushels of com, leading all Chicago roads in volume of deliveries. The Chicago & Rock Island delivering but 11,000 bushels the C. B. & Q., but 30,000 C. & N. W., but 20,000. Right here it occurs that Indianapolis roads have some reason for objecting to a Chicago road coming into the territory of Indianapolis lines and hauling their freights round through Chicago instead of east over tbe direct lines. The C., I., St. L. & C. has within the last sixty days got a couple of hundred car-loads of corn through its Seneca connection with the Chicago & Rock Island road, and Chicago has gone even so far ss to enter a complaint with Commissioner Fink.

Conductor 'John A. Brown, of the Missouri Pacific train which was snowbound near Council Grove, Iowa, did a most heroic act in carrying John Tallman to Council Grove, a distance of a mile and a half, on Thursday night, with the thermometer at 22* below zero. Tallman had fallen and broken his leg. To leave him there meant certain death to the poor fellow, while to carry him might mean death to both. What acute suffering was undergone by the brave man, staggering along under the weight of Tallman in the face of the biting wind and blinding snow that drifted along the road, no one knows. Yet in spite of the danger and terrible cold Brown struggled courageously on until pantiDg and nearly frozdta he deposited his crippled companion in a phice of warmth and safety. It is of such stuff HS this that the men are made who, in the face of death and danger, have saved the country on the battlefield by their bravery. Conductor Brown deserves the admiration of every one for his heroic act.

The Bee line people are credited with having, on the I. & St. L. division, one of the most convenient and most economical plans of coaling their engines, at Fentanet, that is found in the west. Under the arrangement, the miner's car, after reaching the surface, is run on a circle track over the bins, and the coal, without handling, is dumped by an automatic arrangement from the car into whichever bin it is desired to put it. The car is then returned to the mining shaft on the circle track, the same power which lifts the car up the Bhaft hauling the car over the belt track. The bins are close upon the railroad track. Some contain two tons of coal, others four tons. If an engine needs but two tens, it stops at a two-ton bin if four, at a foiir-ton bin. The fireman pulls a rope, the same as he does at a water tank, and the coal is dumped into the tank in a minute's time. Really, it is easier to coal-up an engine than to take water for it from a tank. Under this arrangement, which, by the by, was constructed on ideas suggested by E. B. Thomas, the late general manager of the Bee-line system,_ the cost for handling the coal after it is raised to the surface is a mere trifle, besides being very economical in the handling of the fuel. It is a great saving of time, which is quite a consideration when traffic is heavy.

Palneavllle'* Colored Barber Thinks She la Being Kept From Him. CLEVELAHD, O, January 23.—This morning Gus Barber, the colored haircutter ot Painesville, Ohio, who eloped with Ina Norton, of this city, January 7th, applied in the police court for help to recover his wife. A day or two since his white wife received a telegram saying her mother was sick. Mrs. Barber came to Cleveland, and not hearing from her, the husband came up to see about it, but was refused admission to his wife's former home, and now there is blood on the moon. Barber claims his wife is being detained against her will, and he will attempt her recovery by a writ of habeas corpus.

LOCAL

How Two Democratic Candidates Betrayed Workln*men—The Coming City Campaign. "Rambler," in the Mail, yesterday, tells a truthful story in the following style: "It will not be long until the heat of a political campaign will be upon us, and already there is an undercurrent of political excitement that the winter's cold or the stringency of the times can not entirely subdue. There's talk of this candidate and that, a discussion of the availability ol each for the office to which he aspires, and the strength of a race he would make among the democrats. Tc tbis is added conjectures as to whether this man's leaning towards Lamb, Or bis opposition to him, will cut any figure in his candidacy. There is likely to be a very interresting feature added to the interest in tbe way of an ef-

(it's not necessary to quote th*t word now as Webster's revised recognizes it) the democratic ticket in case the candidates do not give assurance that they will give no patronage to the Gazette, which is a non-union office. The effort was made in the last campaign by the typographical union, which worked against the two democratic candidates and would have defeated one of them at least had they not at the eleventh hour signed an agreement to give the non-union office no patronage in case they should be elected. There is no question hut this act elected one of the candidates, for had he refused to sign the agreement the small majority by which he was elected would have gone the other way and elected his opponent. There is no question at all but that this would have been the result, for, not counting the union men of Terre Haute who would have voted against him, there were enough union votes among the miners at Coal Bluff alone to have defeated J)im had not the news reached them the night before the election that the agreement had been signed to give no patronage to a nonunion establishment. The very first opportunity that was offered after the election wrs over these men violated their agreement, as of course they intended to do when they signed it, and it will be quite an excellent record with which to go among union men again asking for votes. This time, however, it is probable that a very different plan will be adopted, if the attempt is made, asia said it will be. If the candidates who have official patronage to dispense do not give abundant and reliable assurance that they will not give their favors to a non-union establishment, the entire ticket will be boycotted by all the union, men throughout the county. With the dissatisfaction existing beyond dispute in the democratic ranks, this will add a feature to the fight that will no doubt be of great interest to those who aspire to positions on the democratic ticket. The cause of trades-unionism is a growing one, and many of the phases it is assuming can be settled only at the ballot box. The result of the last election is proof conclusive that party lines are not so closely drawn but they can be broken, and the question of good pay or poor pay is surely one that in time will be sufficient among workingmen to break those lines. If this matter is made a local issue this year, it will he an interesting complication to the campaign, and it is safe. to say that the men who were duped before will not Be again, at least not by the same men.

The democrats are in a stew over the metropolitan system, and any man with a practicable theory as to the best plan for extricating themselves from their present dilemma will be received with open arms. If they don't repeal the ordinance before the spring election they are well assured that the ma^s of democrats who believe in having all the offices will put their protests into active use in the way of votes. On the other hand, if they do repeal it, they are fearful that those who are satisfied with the ordinance will be displeased with its repeal. But the council need feel no alarm about the Metropolitan ordinance defeating them. The present body has not been such an eminent and glaring success as to ensure its re-election. There is going to be a fight on the light question on the police ordinance, on the expenditures of the council, in fact this is going to be a year of political "kicks," all the way round. It will be rough on the democratic participants, but the republicans, who now have reserved seats in tbe front row, will get all the enjoyment possible out of the show. The curtain can go up none too soon for them.

KILLED BY FROST. 1

An Old Man With Frozen Limbs, Walks From A Distance Jto This City. On Thursday, "the 14th inst., an old man came limping into town along the road from the north, and as soon as possible made known the fact to the authorities that he had frozen his feet, and was experiencing great suffering, Through some mis-directed order he was sent to the poor farm. Dr. Spain, the county physician, as soon as he ascertained the fact, ordered that, as there was no good reason for considering the old man a county patient, he be brought to the city and sent to the St. Anthony's hospital. This was done and thereafter Dr. J. R. Crapo took charge of he case. The old man gave his age at the hospital as sixty-two years and his name as Rupert Bessen. He said he had been working as a "man of all work" for a farmer in Otter Creek township He said that during the last cold snap he had been obliged to. "carry in wood for a good many fires that were kept burning almost all the time/'and that while thus engaged, being but poorly clad he froze his feet that after he was unable to do any more work he found that he "was not wanted any longer," and accordingly came to the city. Since being sent to the hospital the old man's condition has grown woise. His frosted feet had been so long neglected that decay had set in and consequent blood poison had become distributed through his system. The amputation of both feet was" determined upon, but the physicians have not as yet performed the operation. Said Dr. J. R. Crapo yesteraay: "This is a. terrible case of freezing. The feet and legs of the old man were frozen nearly to the knees, and have been in terrible condition. We have only waited for the line of demarkation above the frosted and crumbling portion of the injured members to become established before performing the operation. His system is impregnated with blood poison, and his death, which I consider to Be inevitable, has been expected several days."

Core

The unfortunate old man

is said to have had a sister who once lived on north Second street beyond the Vandalia track, but who some time since moved to Illinois, her whereabouts not at present being known. Yesterday evening Bessen's condition was not changed, ana it was expected he would not survive many hours.

Cincinnati Sanday Theaters. |j|g| CINNATI, O., Jantfary 23.—The Law and Order League, having for some time been trying to close the theaters on Sunday by occasional arrests of actors, and having succeeded imperfectly in their prosecutions, have adopted a new policy. They have asked the co-operation of the theaters, first, by asking them to mutually agree to close on Sunday. This failed to get a majority to sign, and was abandoned. Now the proposition made by the theater managers has been agreed'to by ail (theater managers except one, that is to close their theaters when-

ever the Eiaw and Order society shall succeed in closing the Sundav concert saloons. They are willing to aid in closing these saloons. It is probable a strong movement will be made to close the concert saloons on Sanday, as the theater managers say these places will do them much injury by taking the money which would be diverted by closing the theatere only on Sundays. The indictment of Nat Goodwin by the grand jury this week is one of the achievements of the League, but it has no direct effect on the theaters.

CHRISTENBERRY GIRL DIES.

Tbe Coroner IoTestigftteg the Canse of the Accident-The Father Employs Attorneys.

Zerelda Christenberry, the 12-year-old school girl run over by an E. & T. H. yard engine on the Van track between Fourth and Fifth street Friday, mang-

fort by the union workingmen to boycott ]jng both legs and one arm, died at 2:30

yesterday morning. She could not withstand the reaction. No attempt was made at amputation.

The coroner took testimony in the case yesterday. Nicholas Lynch,engineer of the E. & T. H. engine No. 31, stated that he was running the engine east when the child was struck, and that he not did see her. The engine was stopped as soon as possible. They were running about four or four-and-a-half miles an hour. He saw children on the track when the engine was about twenty feet from them. He called for them to get off the track.

B. Roach, switchman in the employ of the E. & T. H., testified that when he fire* saw the children they were on a pond of ice. He looked over the tank and lost

the children. The little Christenberry girl was found on the tracK under the third car. He did not see any one push the child.

Alexander Christenberry, father of the child, testified that she would have been 11 years old next April. She was conscious when she died. She told him that a little girl was on the track with her, and that they were walking hand-in hand. Anna, her companion, said, "Look out, the train is coming and in trying to get off the track she slipped and fell, and the train psssed over her.

Mr. Milton testified that he WM present went the train struck the child. It was going at the rate of six or eight miles an hour.. They were not ringing the bell, and did not blow the whiistle.

Yesterday Mr. Christenberry, father of the girl, employed Messrs. Felsenthal and Stunkard to bring suit for damages against the E. & T. H.

The testimony before the coroner's jury was continued yesterday afternopn. Mrs. F. M. Beach, teacher in .the First district school, testified as follows: "I am teacher in the First district -school. Deceased was one of my pupils. The school building is located aat 105 Lfayette street. I dismissed school yesterday at 11:45 o'clock a. m. Deceased attended school on the morning of the accident. I did not see the train pass. The child was a bright child but somewhat old for the grade. I am teaching the first grade. She [deceased] was well behaved in school. I did- not know of the occurrence until informed of the fact by one of the boy scholars, when I immediately repaired to the drug store where she had been taken. She was extended on a table in the drug store, and several physicians were about her."

The examination of witnesses will continue to-morrow. Mr. John Patterson represents the railroad company in the case, and expressed himself last night that "the company would do the right thing"by the friends of the dead child." Said Mr. Felsenthal: "I scarcely believe it will be necessary to bring suit for damages. The company will undoubtedly do justice to Mr." Christenbetry's family."

much difficulty in getting to the distillery explosion by reason of the ice coveredstreets in the South end. A "tip-over" was only avoided several times by skillful driving.

The fire maps of the city, showing the location of plug? and cisterns and the direction of the fire alarm wires—the work of Chief Schell—has been completed, and is suspended on the walls of the office at headquarters.

The Chicago fire department is largely composed of mechanics likewise, those of St. Louis, Cincinnati and Indianapolis. On the Terre Haute department there are but few. skilled mechanics and they are, foi" the greater part, carpenters.

Tbe inembers of the department who did duty at the scene of the recent explosion say that work there was especially difficult and dangerous. The immense open well near the entrance to the engine room was a trap into which several of the firemen came near falling.

The movement which was recently put on foot among the business men of this city—including the insurance agents—to purchase for tne city a Champion chemical'engine, has beeu abandoned until next fall, The cost of the engine complete, including 150 feet of hose, is $2,250. ft 18

ji tbtked Burglars. TARBYTOWN, N..Y., January 23.—8JX masked burglars robbed three houses in north Tarrytown last night Their mos successful raid was that upon the houBe of the widow of General Henry Storms. The only persons in the house were Mrs. Storms and another lady. The burglars terrified them with threats of instant death and almost smothered Mrs. Storms with a pillow.

THE DEAD AND INJURED.

Funerals Teaterday and Those of To-Day. —The Condition, of the Iojored. The funeral of Frank McNelis occurred at 9 o'clock yesterday morning from St. Joseph's Catholic church. The Eev. Father McEvotyr read the services for the dead and the choir responded. The Father referred briefly, and with tender sentiments to the dead. He likened the world to a field, where the mower death was working with a acythe. When the mower cuts down a relative or friend it is time for the living to pause and reflect. There is only a step between this world and the beyond. Messrs. E. J. Vesque, M. V. Ward, Fred Siedentopf, James Nugent, Frank Novatney, and Patrick O'Brien were pall bearers.

The funeral of George Otterman occurred yesterday afternoon from his late residence. No. 1625 Oak street. The attendance was large. The Masonic fraternity and the K. of P. attended.

The Thompson Rifles held a meeting at their armory last night for the purpose of making arrangements for the burial of their comrades, James E. Ethington and Frank M. Buckingham, viitimaof the distillery explosion.

The meeting was attended by almost every active member of the company and by many ex-members. It fas arranged that the company should meet to-day promptly at the armery at 1 o'clock, ana march thence to the residence of Comrade Ethington, corner of First and Wilson take charge of the remains, and thence proceed to the corner of First and Oak aid receive the remains of Comrade Buckingham, and thence, led by Myers' b^ass band, march to St. Stephen's ehurch, where, at 2 o'clock, she Rev. Dr. Delafield, chaplain of the company, will conduct the funeral services. It is expected the Hager Veterans will participate with the Thompson Rifles in these funeral services.

Robert Slaven is said to be in a very critic&l- condition. Dr. T. C. Stunkard, -who is attending him, says that his greatest danger is in the possible result of the severe burn that covers his back for a length of fourteen inches. The burn is a dry burn, and was caused by a piece of boiler iron, almost red hot, falling upon him and pinning him to the earth. From the effect of this burn the suffering man may lose his life.' At this time his physician says it is impossible to safely predict the final result of Slaven's injuries. Last evening he was resting as comfortably as could reasonably be expected.

Jolih Slaven, jr., who was thrown forty feet down the embankment, and received several bad cuts and bruises, and also suf fered a severe nervous shock, has recovered sufficiently to leave his home.

Frank Byrant, who received slight bruises all over his body, resumed work in the engine room a short time after the explosion and has since attended to his duties, notwithstanding occasional severe pain experienced.

The coroner took the testimony of one witness yesterday, but nothing new was learned. It is thought that the inspector' who inspected the boilers a few days before the explosion, will be here Monday.

MAKING BEER AGAIN.

Backed by a Federal Court, John Walroff Starts Up His Kansas Brewery. LAWRENCE,

Kas., January 23.—John

•Walruff, the brewer in whose case Judge Brewer gave a favorable opinion yesterday, returned from Topeka this evening. He was seen by your representative, and was undoubtedly the happiest man in Kansas. Said he: "It mrfkes my property that a week ago I could not have sold tor $5,000 worth ten times that amount. It saves me from utter and complete ruin. As it is now-1 can either manufacture or the state will be compelled to pay me for my property." "Does this decision settle the matter?" "Yes, unless the county decides to take the ca'se to the United States supreme court. It will require the consent of the county commissioners to do this, and whether they will care to run the risk of defeat or not I can't say. It seems to me that they are almost certain of defeat if they take the case up, and I doubt whether they will do it." "Have you manufactured any beer recently "To-day—for the first time since the probate judge refused to grant me license and JudgeJBenson enjoined me. I will continue to do so now until I am either reimbursed for my property or closed by order of the United States court. I can find a market for all the beer I can produce and not sell a drop in Kansas, or, if I do, for the excepted purposes. I would have been willing to have manufactured and sold according to law, butlhe probate judge of Douglass county would not permit me." "Has the prosecution of this case cost yon very much?" "Yes I have spent considerable money in fighting the various suits brought against me under the prohibition law, and have been the only one to stand out. My brewery is now the only one that is in"working condition in the state, but I suppose the others will start up."

Kas., January 23.—

The liquor sellers and brewers are rejoicing over the decision of Judge Brewer, of the United States circuit court, in the case of the state against John Walruff, the Lawrence brewer, to the effect that the state sHould pay Walruff $50,000 for his brewey or let him proceed -with the manufacture of beer. In effect, the decision declares that the state must pay for all property rendered useless by the prohibitory law, and it is here that the decision covers not only breweries and distilleries but vineyards, which aggregate an immense amount in value.

City Attorney Wheat was served to-day with a writ requiring him to appear before the State supreme court and show cause why he should not be removed from office for refusing to enforce tbe prohibitory law in Leavenworth comity.
