THE SUNDAY EXPRESS.

'Jihe Sunday Express, as usual, will he

exceedingly interesting. Tlie articles by

General Bfuicau on "Grant in Peace,"

are attracting wide attention. Sunday's

article will be entitled "Leaving

the Wuite House" Tlie N5w York

letter will le about many of_ the oddities of. the New York Register's

office—many of the curious documents

found there. Tlie other interesting fea

tures of the Sunday issue will appear.

Orders for extra copies should be sent in

early.

The way to secure a boom is to work for it.

3 Tlie senate has passed the anii-po!yg* amy bill. It now goes to the president.

51 The Express is as desirous as ever to see a Kansas paper that devoteo its columns to pufting Indiana.

General Sheridan says the Nation needs suns, Mnd when guus are secured the government can talk about foitilieations.

There are any number of Democrats, right hero in Terie JIaute, who think they might inakp acceptable railroad commissioners.

Tlie hot water cure- will have a boom in Chicago. The water with which the city is supplied cannot be drunk until it is boiled. The metropolis i- gradually working its way back to the blue-glass era.

The Crown Prince iiaH not Haid"that war with France i« inevitable, but he has remarked, if it should come "(Ttrmany is ready.'' This is hardly a sentiment favoring peace aud the continuance •of pe -.re.

John Sherman did not look with favor upon tlie "credentials''of David Turpie, when tSey were laid before him last Wednesday. He regarded theiu as all licnest men would, not worth the stufl upon which thev were written.

Mr. L'arnell is in ill-health and will so to Algi«rs to recuperate. Lord Randolph Churchill ic already there, aud other sick and ailing parliamentary leaders will follow. Algiers is becoming a sort of English-politico Banitsiium.

The preliminary steps toward the organization of a Lincoln club were taken in this rify last evening. Notice of the next mi-eting will be given through the Express, when officers will be elected, aud a constitution aud by-laws adopted.

Mr. Powderly is making a thorough study of strikes. He is inquiring into the causes, considering the results, and will soon he able to say just how many strikes there have been in which the Knights of Labor have been concerned. He will not have any assistance from Jay Gould.

The "real estate transfers" at Wichita, Kansas, average $750,000 a day, or $4, ".00,000 a week, or $18,000,000 a month. Eighteen millions is greater than the present taxable valuation of all ihe real aud personal property in Terre

Haute. Js there a m»m fool enough to ber emoke." lieve that thesa "transfers" are genuine— Itho

that the people of "Wichita do nothing else but buy and 8* 11 land over and over, and over again? The way9 of the Western real estate bp) are many, and not few are, apparently, paat finding out, bet the object is tfi catch suckers.

W. J. Gallagher, the Chicago election crook, denies an intimate acquaintance with Mr. Schneidet, the artistic piumber whose bills, in tix months, aggregated $92,000. Gallagher says he "barel? kufw him."' Nobody doubts it. So great an ar'.ist aa Mr. Schneider is likely to be f-xtrliiAive and fastidious as to his acijnaintancce.

The Republican majority of Mayor Titst the election in Philaiiclphia last

-sdRy: was 29,29?, and all the RepubisctV candidates were electf.-d. This ie the l4.rMest Republican majority cv?r giv^nio Philadelphia. It may accepted as a sioiU:ficant ''indicatiusi." People everywhere, West, North and South, are heVti'y 'i'ed o£* Cleveltnd and Reform," or iJ* fquiyalo it.

The bid feeling bCi'veea Cincinnati, and Col in bus is likely to be imitated Ly Chicsgo and SpringftfeH. Chicago inaista that the lake shore Ss the proper place for the Illinois iiiat« a iilitia camp, which the adjutant general established at the capital. There are '.-'everal miles of lake front "front which to choose, but Chicago alludi a to th.nt pcsVion which ie adjacent to the exposition: building or Lincoln park.

Tlie difference between Terre Hanto and Kacrcas to the Gasistte, is this: It dooe everything for Terre Uaute iu its power, free. It dooenot have to bo paid to work for Terre Haute's iatereats. What it prints for Kansas is done as advertising, paid for as such and eo understood by everybody.—[tiazotto.

No, it is not "so understood by everybody." Clippings from Kansas papers, iueerted above, 1 elow or alongside of Associated Press telegrams or local matter, and given the same heading?, are not classed as advertisements. This position is giver, the "boomers" because it is considered the best, and that it will catch more suckers than if the articles were locate*! among the ndvertisements The Gazette inserts them there because the boomers itesire if, aud thus aids and abets the bcora*rs in their efforts to putt Kansas and VUD down Terre Haute.

The Memphis Avalanche o( Thursday contained' the following: two-colnni'-J letter to the New York 'i'ini'3 from its Birmingham, Ala., correspondent has Hiouae.l (he ire of tlna bo mers. Thev- sowed the wind and must expect to reap tho whirlwind. Tho mistake which the boomers make is one in common with that of the ostrich, which buries its head in the sand and imagines becanso ho cannot "bservo the scenery to any considerable advantage in that position, those who may happun tj be loiteriag about the vicinity cannot 800 hiiu. The Times' correspondent draws it strong, scrapes off too much of the paint perhaps, eo far as Hirmingh»m is concerned, but thu lesson is a cood one and its effect should not be lost. A cafe, steady, legitimate growth is the only growth whioh will last. We ean grow healthy enterprises if we will take a reasonable time to do it, iud should not bo i.'i too much of a hurry to gr«w fungi which wili wither at tho first touch. Our mines, mu meadows and our wuodlauds are not likely to take wings and fly awny. We have there fast. But sands of gold do not glisten upon the bank of every creek every hill does not hide a blind lead. Sooner or later the boomers must expect to be called by their right names, and in the revieed 'ictionar^ will go down as liars.

The above wi'-l apply as well to Terre Haute as to Memphis. Tho "boomer,'' whether he be of the Kansas or Alabama specie, is having a hard time.

There are certain humorotia sidewal observation?, thnt are open to one as a kind of compensation for having"fo elbow smi jostle along 'he public wayn. One of these is the trick piv.ple have o'f looking at you with the left-over remain dens of the expression of face just bestowed on the companion with whom they are walking or talking. A pair cf persons engaged in lively argument are approaching you. Oneof theia in laying down the law with great vigor of facial anil muscular gesture. At the moment of brushing by be glances st \on, with the ferocious scowl of his fervid eloquence still puckering bis features. You would think he was your bitterest foe. Of course it would have been opposed to the great law of economy of force to have relaxed and then puckered up again just for the momentary meeting of another face. Perhaps his apparatus of facial expression is not agile enough to have accomplished the maneuver if he had tried.

A Strong Family Itesonifolsnce. Atlanta Constitution.

Said he, as he wheeled that old arm chair around toward the window, "I had a iunnv experience with a circus advance agent once in Illinois. My brother was running a paper at Quincy, and I was running two papers, one ia Clinton and another down at Ker,worth. The agent struc* Quincv first and saw my brother, who resembles me very closely in personal appearance. In concludipg the bargain for space the circus mau learned that ray brother's name was Giessner. Coming on to Clinton he dropped into my office. 'This is Mr. Giessner?' 'Yes, sir that is my name.' 'I met your brother up in Quincy.' Then he" told me his business, and we agreed on a price, and he went his way. In about a week he struck Kenworth, aud I happened to be down looking after my paper there. Walking in he asked if I was the proprietor, ancl I noticed that he eved me very closely. 'Your name, sir?' 'Ctiessner,' I replied. 'Well,' he said, heaving a sigh, 'I have seen a good many twine, but I'll be d—d if von three Glessners don't bear the ationgest family resemblance of any men I ever saw.'

farm in

Warren county and Considerable real estaio in Illinois. !rfe had been married before, and had

one

daujghter, Sardinia

Latmou, who^ previous to his second marriage, 'aowe: er, was married herself to W, p.Isbcll, a young farmer. Before l"'S second marriage, savs the Louis-

Commercial, Larmon entered into a pre-nuptial contract with his intended bride, by which he agreed to settle upon her a homestead and an annuity of $200. In c.-ise .' he preferred, tho homestead might be relinquished and the aunuily incceased to $300. This, of course, provided she survived him. In considers lion of ihia settlement, she agreed to lelinquish all dowet she would acquire in and to his propetty by tlieir marriage. This agreement waa fi'ed ou record it the Warren county court. The couple weie married alid lived happily, it is pn-snmf-ii, together on the Warren county homestead until some time in 1882, when Larman died. Ho left a will providing as stipulated in the pre-nuptial agreement, and making C. J. Lirman his executor. The remainder of the property was bequeathed to Sardinia Isbell, wife of W. E. Isbell, and daughter of Larmou.

Mrs. Larmon lived peacefully upon the homestead left her by her late husband until the aight of February 14, 18S4, when her house was visited by three or more masked men, aud she was infoitmd thai she must leave th? neighborhood within thirty days, or sboand her family would be kiiled. She was naturally veiy much frightened, aud the next day sen! for label 1 and related the occurence to him. She could think of no expianaticn of the strange command, but it -vae t-o peremptory and the men wore so evintly in earnest that she determined iu obey. She therefore has to sell her propei to Isbell far §1,000 cash, which he promptly accepted. Thejjdeed was drawn up, signed and the money paid at once, the document being tiled in the Warren county clerk's office the uext. day. Mrn. Larmon soon after left the place.

The foregoing facia set out in a petition tiled in the United 8tates court yesterday afternoon, in which Mrs. Larmhe brings complaint against W. E. Isbell, Monroe Isbell and C. J. Larmon. She claims that W. E. Isbell was one of her masked men who frightened her into leaving her home. She says that it hi:s a cold-blooded conspiracy to defraud wl of her property, which is worth at tho lowest calculation $2,500, not including the annuity. Isbell. she says, is a lawless and reckless man, who would not hesitate to put his threats into execution. The sale to him was therefore made, she asserts, under duress, and she now claims the protection of the court. Isbell ht-s already drawn her annuity of $200 for 1S84, 1885 and 1886, and will continue to draw it unless enjoined.

The liquor bill which has passed the house of the state legislature, and will come up for consideration in the senate in a short time, is attracting attention of the liquor men in this city. The bill is regarded as being rather rigid in its provisions. It provides for a license of $500 per annum. The saloonkeeper must also furnish & list of namee of citizens who will give a bond of $5,000 for the purpose of paying all fines assessed against ihe saloon ist during the year The penalties assessed for violations of law are rather heavy. The bill also has local option clause appended. It pro vidts that an election can be called at the request of a number of citizens and a decision reached whether or not saloons will be allowed to be established. This section is made applicable to townshij' as well aa to counties. The opinion is expressed here that it is doubtful whether or cot the bill will go through the senate. Said one gentleman: "If it dce^ become law, it will lose up nearly all the saloons in Terre Haute. They can't afford to pay the high license. Very few, if any, could make any money out of the business-." Said another in speaking of the bill: "I don't know whether the bill will go through or not. I haven't heard anything from Indianapolis. O, I suppose they will pass a law some of these days to hang us all."

Senator Philip Schloss, of this city, of stock law fame, has added new lustre to his reputation since the opening of tlie present sesion of the leg lature. He introduced a coroner's bill, which was unpopular, and he is aIFO the father of the dental bill. Among the various other legislative acts emintitiug from Vigo's distinguished senator ip. a telephone bill that proposes to have fcubscribers pay $18 annually in advance for the instrument, Scents each for all connections under fifty, 2 c«nU each for all in excess of fifty and under two hundred, 1 cent each for all above the last named figure. These charges are to prevail in tows and kities having telephone exchanges. For connections with other cities, towns or villages," the charge is to be 25 cents for the first five minutes, and 10 ctnts for each additional five minutes. In removing instruments the companies are to charge only the actual cofit of such removal or changc. The company is required lo place asuittible device at each instrument to record the connections. Provision i* made for the placing of public stations, but there hall be not more than one in each block. The charge for this service is fixed at five :euts for each connection. No oilier service is to be permitted except under the provisions of the bill.

Evanaville''enterprise, in the newspaper line, beats anything of the sort in the broad tield of journalism, and that is saying a great deal. The Express has had occasion to Bevernl times call attention to the wonderful tact and journalistic ability of the Evansville newspapers. But the climax has perhaps been reached. The other dsy the Evansville Courier printed an article upon the meeting of a father and daughter after a long separation, and by the way quite pleasingly written. The next day the Evansville Journal contained the identical item in "plate," with an Evansville date line. The article appeared at the top of one of several columns of "plate" telegraph news. If this isn't newspaper enterprise, and with a great big, black "E," then Here and There is badly mistaken. To say the least, it is a stracge coincidence that the same item should appear ia two Evansville papers—in one as a local and iu the other as telegraph with an Evansville date line. Such strange freaks in the journalistic field are worthy of pres ervation.

There was an unusually large number of bad places in sidewalks upon police record yesterday morning. An Express reporter counted the number of reports and found that tliev aggregate eighteen The poor walks were variously located. The record of such reports for yesterday boars out the assertion made in the Express upon several occasions that- the sidewalks and streets were never in worse condition. Sidewalks are being improved to some extent, but the streets—well, there can not be anything said in praise of their condition, and if the truth was really told of them it would not look any too well in print.

Tbe Greencastle Daily Courier aays: "The Terre Ilaute Express isn't "stuck" on tlie stndeiit half cf our population, judging from the following: 'Sixty street lamps have been ordeied this week fcy'tbe common council of Greencastle to supply the places of those broken by students and street arabs." The information which led to the item being written was gained from the Courier. The Greencastle daily was accepted as authority on the subject.

"You are rather hard on the Kansas investors" said W. W. Cliver, the live Main street grocer. "I am one of them aud consider my investments good. All the same, I am in forgiving Terre Haute a boom having made my money right here. I'll be one of two' hundred citizens to give $500 apiece, half to be given to the Southwestern railroad, and the other half to induce ^manufacturers to locate here."

Morton Relief Corps held a very pleasant social at their hall on last Friday evening. One of the pleasant features of the evening was the presenting of an elegant gold badge to their past president, Mrs. A. Lr Rankin. Mrs. G. B. Rose made the presentation speech in well chosen and appropriate remarks. Mrs. Ranhin was so taken by!surprise,she could but thank them for their token of «Uem.

Southern Antidote for Malaria. It is generally known that Simmons Liver Regulator is relied upon to secure immunity from all malarial disorders. This is proven by its popularity, and anyone who has lived in the South has seen its curative effects and the protection it gives against this weakening and dangerous malady. It acts more promptly than calomel or quinine, without any of their injurious consequences.

The other day she received rletter from Colorado, saying that there was a lead mine on her property, anc $250,000 was offered for it. Miss Malconr thought it a joke, but finding that it wasn't, she accepted the offer, and the check is on its way East.

When tbe G. A. K. visited the state legislature, in passing through Circle Park, every member uncovered as he passed the statue of Governor Morton. It was a deserved compliment to the memory of the w:ar governor.

In Whitley county, the home of Senator McDonald, no old soldier, destitute and without & home, is allowed to go to the poor house, but he ia cared for by public liberality. If a similar ambition actuated other countries there would be no 300 old soldiers in ihe poor boons o! the state, as simwn by statistics submitted to tbe present encampment.

THE IMPENDING WAR.

A Oortlict ot GiaiiH Wlt'i all the Impending Machinery of Modern Warfare. New Albany Ledger.

The nineteenth century boasts of its civilization. We think we live in better days than wheu tho whim of a court favorite or courtezan would plunge two nations into war. We call the ages when the ambitious of rulers and generals led to tho slaughter on the battlefields of thousands and tens of thousands of human beings, tbe dark a get'. Yet what. do we now see? Two of the great continental nations. Germany and Fiance, arming for what in all probability «ill be the most destructive war in modern, if not in even ancient history. It will be a conflict of giants, with all the improved machinery of modern warfare. It will be a struggle to thejdeath. The vanquished nation may be and probably will be wiped from the map of Europe, its very name and language chanired. In the meantime death and desolation wili stalk through both nations and every household among two great peoples be called to mourn its lost ones. And for what? Because the fathers of the piesent generation of French and Germans fought with varying fortunes anil because the present generation hattied for a few months for a mere abstraction. Awil this is th* boasted nineteenth century, and ihe International Peace society proclaiming that wars must cease. Aud tbe nations threatening war are Christian nations. It is not the cross against the crescent n"t civilization against barbarism not crown against crown, or a kingdom against the people, but a people again a people, and the onlv cause ft memory.

JCvlflonco of Prosperity.

New York Tribune. Chicago newspapers report that the Chicago Press club has in its possession the first So greenback ever issued and regards it as "a valuable relic." When news taper clubs come to be so bloated with bonds and other certificates of riches that they can afl'ord to regard five dollar bills not as money, but a# relics, they can be lookd upon as prosperous beyond the dreams of avarice. The Chicago Press club is to be congratulated.

When silent lies the sleeping town In its profoundeet rest, There is a ship conies sailing down

Upon tho rivor's breast.

Wide-winged aa that enchanted

And isles of memories.

And

she is mystically fraught

With dreams remembered lonp, That drift on all the tides of thought And all the seas of soDg.

She hath Ulysses by her helm, And in the olden time This ship of a divioer realm,

And of a farer clime.
