The prospects for securing the construction of the Southwestern railway are brighter than ever. The gentlemen who met our business men yesterday are business men themselves, and it is a pleasure to note that they were impressed with Terre Haute. The con struction of the Southwestern will mean a great deal for Terre Haute. It opens a country heretofore out of Terre Haute's territorv, aud reaches a section which has been taken away from Terre Haute by the construction of other roads. Terre Hau business men are taking hold of the road at this end and are moving right along. They are almost ready to organize a company and to push matters. Let every business man, every property owner and every resideut tak an interest in the matter and -, ivatbt men who stand ready to give their time and money toward securing the road, encouragement.
The Globe-Democrat devotes a column or two every day to the report of "booms." Every town in the country has a "boom," except Terre Haute. But Terre Haute is not a "boom" town it is as enterprising, gc-a-head town, and the
strides it will make this year will be sufficient for three or four "booms" in other towns. Terre Haute is not "booming" at present it is growing. Its suburbs are pushing out over ground that a f6W years ago was covered with growing corn houses are being built where two or three yeats a&o there were cow pastures. In the northeastern part of the city—north of Elm and east of Sixth street—the buildings erected within the past three years would, of themselves, make a town large enough to put on city air*. Other portions of the city have spread out as rapidly. Throughout the city many vacant lots have been built upon, and today there are hundreds and hundreds wore houses in Terre Haute than there were in 1880. In other towns, when a few citizens conclude to build, a few I more to remodel their houses, the "booking" process is started but in Terre Haute, hundreds of buildings are erected without attracting more than or dinary attention. Let other towns "boom," but let Terre Haute continue to grow, and when the time comes egain to couut nosts and compare business, Terre
Haute will stand well up in the list.

Mr. Powderly is unable to prevent the anarchists paying the debt of nature, like the rest of mortality. But he thinks he can prevent the organiaation, of which he is the efficient head, from participating in their funerals, that are only demonstrations against law and order. He has condemned the course of Senator Burke and Representative Rohrback in attending Mrs. Neebe's funeral, and hia objections are coached in lan guage that is plain and unmistakable. Mr. Powderly has at heart the good of his order, and he does not propose that it shall, in any way identify itself with the anarchistic rable whose natural elements are fire and blood.
The workingmen of a republic, whose fundamental principle is the political equality of all men,and which recognizes that social equality upon which each in dividual insists, have nothing in common with foreign intenrpers to whom liberty means license, bent upon murder and destruction. Honest men cannot afford to be identified in any way with blood thirsty Poles and Hungarians whose one purpose is to overthrow all established law, civil and religions, and to bring about a condition in which the individual will have neither rights nor protection of any sort.
The inter-state commerce law will be a vexed question until the commission ahall have met and agreed upon an in terpretation of some of its provisions, Even then there will be an immense amount of latitude allowed in deciding between its constitutional and unconsti tutional features. There is a great deal of humbug in the decisions of supreme tribunals, of which our higher courts are an evidence. It is treason to hint that affirming or setting aside the decision of a lower court's based upon anything but a close and careful consideration of law, evideuce and precedents but judges of the supreme court and railroad commissioners are human beisgs like other men. Where the balance is nicely adjusted, the moods and prejudices of the individual give the necessary additional weight, one way or the other. All questions that are submitted to the final opinion of one man, no matter what may be his ability or knowledge, are absolutely certain to be affected at some time or other by his prejudices, and his physical condition. A j, dge or a commissioner is as powerless as the preacher or editor against the ills that war against the flesh and his views like those of other men are morally certain to be affected by the beatific influence of a good dinner and a *ound digestion, as they are to be tinged by bilious indigestion that arouse into activity all the worst instincts of human nature.

A REMARKABLE CASE.
Wm. Klrsane'g Application fer the Nolle of an IndictmeBt In New York—He is Now a Wealthy Resident isf San Francisco.
NEW YORK, March 31.—A remarkable case is pending before Recorder Smythe. Mr. J. B. Hart, a San Francisco lawyer, on behalf of a California millionaire, who was known some years ago in this city as William Kissane, said that on Novembei 14, 1854, Kissane was jointly indicted with James Bishop and Lyman Cole for forgery in the third degree. The charge was negotiating a check for $6,018 on the Continental bank, now the Chemical bank. On the same day the two cashed a check for $12,000 on the American Exchange bank. On the first indictment a nolle pros was entered in the case of Cole, on March 18, 1855. On the other indictment, Kissane was tried and sentenced to two years anc1 six months' imprisonment, but was pardoned after serving nine months. Mr. Hart said that Kissane had become a wealthy and prominent citizen in San Francisco, and had there a good reputation. He therefore asked that the remaining indictment be nolle prossed. To this application unexpected objection was made by General Francis Dorr, who said that Kissane was not only a thief but a murderer. He wrote to District Attorney Martine: "He did my family a great wrong, and I have hoped to find him all the years. I have at last succeeded—recognized and identified him without a doubt. He is a prominent man in the state and has great wealth. One of his brothers is a leading lawyer in this state (Ohio), also under an assumed »am9, and their real names and history is not dreamed of by the public. His repentance is all nonsense. He has never offered restitution to the many he has wronged. Recorder Smythe took the papers in the case and reserved his decision."
Scene at the Tiiat.
New York Special. The attempt to obtain the dismissal of the indictment found in 1854^ against Wm Kissane has recalled a host'of reminiscences of Kissane, who was knowa to the police and criminal court officials of twenty years ago as one of the mOBt noted criminals of that day. A memorable scene occurred when Kissane was taken befoie Recorder Telion for sentence. Kissane aud his companion, Lyman Cole, were dangerous forgers, and several banks had lost large sums by their forgeries. The recorder had made up his mind to sentence Kissane to five years in the state prison. The prisoner was called to the bar, and the usual formal question was put to him
"What have you to say
way
judgment
should not be pronoun :nd against you according to law?" Kissane was theu young he had received a good education, and was remarkably bright. He rote and began an impassioned address to the recorder. He told of his careful training at home said he had been educated to do right, but had been led astray upon coming to this city, and had been concerned in the commission of some of these acts. He said that it was his first crime, and that he would never be guilty of another. He ^oke eo feelingly that his hearers were convinced of his sincerity, and the recorder changed his purpose and sentenced Kissane to imprisonment for only two years and six months.
Among the offenses in which it was believed by some persons my years ago that Kissane had a part, was the burning of the steamer Martha Washington on tho Ohio river. The steamer was loaded with boxes that were represented as containing valuable goods, but which really contained little that was of value. The steamer and cargo were insured for a large amount, and after the steamer had began its trip a fire broke out. Many passengers lost their livis, and the affair caused great excitement, especially when it was believed that the steamer was deliberately set on fire.
A Sensation Promised.
NEW YORK, March 31.—"When all the facts about Kissane come out, as now seems probable, the papers will have a genuine sensation," said President George C. Williams, of the Chemical National bank, to a reporter yesterday. "His history iq one of the most remarkable I have ever heard, Once the companion of the most noted criminals of this cily and guilty of numerous ciimes himself, he is at present living in luxury at San Francisco. The Chemical bank will oppose the motion of his counsel to have this old indictment against him dropped. It is pretended that he has made good all the money he unlawfully obtained from the bank, but that is not true, and is the very reasons why the case will not be dropped. Some months ago Kissane opened communication with us on the subject and tried to have us withdraw our opposition. Until that time we hid no idea of what had become of him. Now we shall insist on the return of the money due us."
Where Gas is Found in Indiana. Professor R. T. Brown says in the Coal Mirror: "In Indiana gas is found in the northern field, in the Hudson Shale, the upper member of the lo* Silurian but in the southern part of the state gas is associated with the Genesee shale, which is in the upper member of the Devonian formation, and at least 1,000 feet above the gas-bearing rock of the north. Indeed, in many places in Indiana gas has been obtained in a temporary supply, under the lower blue clay and above the rockB in place.
These facts suggest that the gas is not associated with any particular rock formation, nor is it probably produced in any localities where it is found. Any porous rock that is overlaid by compact rocks, laid in clay, will be likely to be charged with gas. As it is identical with the 'fire damp' of the coal miners, it was at first supposed to be derived from coal but as the rocks in which it is found all lie far below the coal meas urei, and as this gas is the lightest substance in nature, it always afcends, and of course is not found below its source."
Only a Few Left.
WASHINGTON, March 31.-—There are now 2,340 presidential postoffices in the United States. Since March 4, 1885, changes from old to new postmasters have been made in 2,140 of these officer, leaving 200 of the postmasteis, who were in office March 4,1885, still in office.

WORSE THAN SMALL-POX,
A Great Danger Which Menaces an Unsuspiolaos Public. The Brompton Hospital for consumptives, in London, reports that over fifty people cut of every hundred consumptives, are victims of cosstipated or inactive, kidneys.
Consumpt'on is one of our uational diseases, and the above report [goes to prove what has often been said in our columns during the lssi eight years, that kidney troubles are not only the cause jf more than half of the caue of con sumption, but of ninety ont of every hundred other common diseases. They who haver taken this position, made their claims iter elaborate investigation, and their proof that they have discovered a specific fc.r the terrible and stealthy kid ney diseases, which have become^ so prevalent among us, is wise and convincing.
We have recently received from them afresh supply of their wonderful advertising. They have challenged the medi ei profession and science to investigate. Thev have investigated, and those who are frank have admitted the truth of theifetaiements. They claim that ninety er.cent. of diseases come originally from inactive kidneys that these inactive kidneys allow the blood to become filled with uric acid poison that this uric acid poision in the blood carries disease through every organ,
Theie iB enough uric acid developed in the system within twenty-four hours to kill half a dozen men.
This being a scientific tact, it requires only ordinary wisdom to see the effect inactive kidneys must have upon the system.
If this poison is not removed, it rmns every organ. If the bowels, stomach or liver become inactive, we know it at once, but other organs help them out. If the kidneys become constipate* and dormant., the warning comes later on, and often when it is too late, because the effects are remote from the kidneys and those organs are not suspected to be out of order.
Organs that are weak and diseased are unable to resist the attacks of this poison, and the disease often takes the form of and is treated as a local affliction, when in reality the real cause of the trouble was inactive kidneys.-
Too many medieal men of the present day hold what was a fact twenty years ago, that kidney disease is incurable, according to tbe medicines Authorised by their code. Hence, they ignore the orig inal cause ofidisease itself, and give their attention to useless treating of local effects.
Thev dose the patient with quinine, morphine, or with salts and oth?r physics, hoping that thus nature may cure the disease, while the kidneys continue to waste away with inflammation, ulceration and decay, and the victim eventually perishes.
The same quantity of blood that passes through the heart, passes through the kidneys. If the kidneys are diseased, the blood soaks up this disease and takes it all through the system. Hence it is that the claim is made tbat Warners safe cure, the only known specific for kidney diseases, which is sold so largely by all dealers, cures 90 per cent of human ailments, because it, and it alone, is able to maintain the natural activity of the kidneys, and to neutralize and remove the uric acid, or kidney poison, as fast as it is formed.
If thia scid is not removed, there is inactivity of the kidneys, and there will be produced in the system paralysis, apoplexy, dyspepsia, consumption, heart disease, headaches, rheuatatism, pneumonia, impotency, and all the nameless diseases of delicate women. If the poisonous matter is separated from the blood, as fast as it is formed, these diseases, in a majority of cases, would not exist.
It only requires a particle of small-pox virus to produce that vile disease, and the poisonous matter from the kidneys, passing all through the system and becoming lodged ndifferent weak points, is equally destructive, although more disguised.
If it were possible for us to see into Ihe Kidneys, and how quickly the blood passing through them goes to the heart and lungs and other parts of the system, carrying this deadly viru3 with it, all would believe without hesitation what has so often been stated in advertisements in these columns, that the kidntys are the most important organs in the body.
They may regard this article as an ad vertisement and refuse to believe it, but that is a matter over which we have no control. Careful investigation and science itself are proving beyond a doubt that this organ is, in fact, more important than any other in the system as a health regulator, and as such should be close'y watched, for the least siga of disordered action.
MR. BEECHER'S BROADNESS.
His Letter Becommendlag a Hebrew as JM-ulster to Turkey.
New York Times. When Odcnr S. Straus, now minister to Turkey, was being urged for that office by his friends, lienrv Ward Beecher, a warm friend of Mr. Straus', wrote the following letter. It is a peculiar letter. It tells more definitely than any words other than its own can describe the broad statesmanship and advanced position of Brooklyn's famous pastor:
BROOKLYN, February 12, 1887.
Orovcr Ckvelarul: DEAR MR PRESIDENT—Some of our
best citizens are solicitous for the appointment of Oscar Straus as minister to Turkey. Oi his fitness there is a general (.ousent that he is personally and in attainments eminently excellent.
Bat I am interested in another quality—the fact that he is a Hebrew. The bitter prejuice against Jews which obtains in many parts of Europe ought Hot to receive any countenance in America. It is because he is a Jew that I would urge his appointment as a fit recognition of this remarkable people, who are becoming large contributors to American prosperitv, and whose intelligence, morality, "and large liberality in all public measures for the welfare of society, deserve and should receive from the hands of our government some such recognition.
Is it not also a duty to set forth in this quiet, but effectual, method the genius of American government, which has under his fostering care people of all civilized nations, and which treats them without regard to civil, religious, or race peculiarities as common citizens. We send Danes to Denmark, Germans to Germany we reject no man because he is a Frenchman. Why should we not make a crowning testimony to the genius of our people by sending a Hebrew to Turkey? The ignorance and superstition of mediaeval Europe may account for the prejudices of that aarke age. But how a Christian in our day can turn from a Jew I cannot imagine. Christianity itself suckled at the bosom of Judaism our reots are in the Old Testament. We. are Jews ourselves gone to blossom and fruit. Christianity is Judaism in evolution, and it would seem strange for the seed to turn against the stock on which it wa- grown.

HERE AND THERE.
Iht other evening a party of men determined to go to Jessup from M'nshall. They eecured a band car aud got well under way. Their time was limited as a train was expected soon and there was no time to be lost. This led to extra exertions on the part of the men. They flew down the grade near Jessup at a very rapid rate. The car was brought to a sudden and unexpected halt by jumping the track and running into some cars. When the wreck was cleared away it was found that a number of the excursionists had been badly hurt One was badly bruised about his head and narrowly escaped the loss of an ear. Another's face was badly cut, one gash being across his mouth. Another received an ugly wound on the back of the head. It is safe to say that the excursionists will not again attempt to make the flying run on a hand car.
The horse case of Boe against Fister was given to the jury in the Superior court late Wednesday afternoon. The evidence was mostly circumstantial in its nature. The prosecution attempted to show that Fister had left the house just prior to the shot being fired and had returned immediately after that his gun which had been loaded previously was empty the next morning. The defense sought to show that the horse might have leen shot by some other person than Fister. The jury retired and at at 1 o'clock yesterday morning they rendered a sealed verdict which was that they agreed to disagree. The jury was discharged yesterday. Oae of the jurymen was in favor of a verdict against the plaintiff while the others wanted to render a decision in his favor.
The railroad editor of the Gazette seems to have had hold of the editorial pen yes terday, the following editorials appearing in last evening's issue:
April 1st ushers in the sweet buy and buy for the railroad deadbeat. April has an "r" in it and won't go. Neither will the railroad deadhead unless he pays for his transportation.
Convicts will oontinne to be deadheads in spite of the inter-state commerce bill. It won't cost them a cent to ride to the penitentiary.
Passenger trafiBo this week will be immense. •U1 the grand army of deadheads will be on the move, taking final free rides, and bidding fond farewell, etz.
The greatest April fool joke ever perpetrated will b# that played on the railroad deadheads of high and low degree by the inter-state commerce bill. On and after, etc.
It is stated that the Salvationists will, within a short time, start out on a crusade against the various saloons. They will invade the bar rooms and offer prayer and render some of their choice musical selections for the good of the cause. The Salvationists become more noisy as the meetings progress. They were granted the use of the church property on south Fourth street, but restrictions were placed upon them. One of these was that their meetings should be orderly and should not annoy residents of the vicinity. Should the neighbors complain of the noise the Salvationists would be ousted out of thebarricks upon short notice.
March came in like a lamb but it did not go out according to the proverbial phrase, like a lion. The weather yesterday was quite warm and pleasant. Terre Haute fortunately escaped the snow storm which prevailed yesterday in the Ohio valley. The storm was quite heavy over southern Indiana. E. A T. H. train men report that the snow extended as far south as Evansville and that it was quite heavy along the entire route. Cars arriving in this city were covered with snow to quite a depth. The thermometer yesterday registered a much higher temperature than for a number of days past.
When Mr. Blaine passed through this cily during the campaign of 1884 there was undoubtedly the largest crowd that ever assembled in Terre Haute. The people came to Terre Haute from miles around. Mr. Blaine camo to the city over the E. & T. H. and went east over the Vandalia. Upon that occasion as Wednesday the train was late and the crowd was kept waiting for several hours. Mr. Blaine spoke from a platform erected a short distance from where his special car stood Wednesday. Blaine's first visit to Terre Haute will be remembered in our history as one of our "big" days.
In one of the Evansville dailiee there recently appeared a special giving the details of a cutting affray at Washington, Ind. "The item was brilliantly headed: "A Colored Coon's Crime," a negro having cut a white saloonkeeper with a Hatchet. No doubt Washington's usual "quiet calm" was thrown into a "feverish fever" of excitement by the "horribly terrible" affair. No doubt had the "colored coon" been captured the "white whiteman's"" wrongs would have beet) avenged with the "severest severity," in the tautological language of the Evansville telegraph editor.
Albert Myers left yesterday for Washington, D. C., to join Ihe base ball team of that city. Since it Was known that Myers was to go to Washington there has been considerable correspondence going on. Washington was not inclined to pav the salary asked by Myers.
Cod" said he preferred not to play ball this year rather than accept the terms offered by the club. The matter was finally adjusted by Myers getting his price. The Washingtons will not be a very strong team this season, but Myers will make perhaps as good if not the best record of any of the team.
Architect Charles Hannaford, of Cincinnati, has arrived in the city. He is accompanied by a draughtsman. He will draw up tbe plans and specifications for the furniture of the new court house. He and his assistant will be given desk room in the county auditor's office for the present.
ANew Social Club.
The Zalu-Kaffern club ie an organiza. tion of young German gentlemen, recently organised, whose object is to "seek ft rational enjoyment of life." They meet every Sunday evening in the rear of August Wegner's, on Ohio street, drink their beer, tell stories of Vaterland, ring ooags, create no disorder and, in short,

are a pleasant set of fellows: The officers recently elected are: President, John Werner vice-president, Henry Meyer secretary, Philip Moninger treasurer, Frank Egglerbecht steward. August Wegner. In the old country, among such organizations, it is the custom at their meetings to drink their beer from a large horn, which, when once filled, cannot be laid down until it is emptied. The members of the ZuluKaffern club, however, drink their beer from cocoanut shells.
THE K. OF L.
Cardinal Manning'* L-tter Kndorsii. the Order. BALTIMORE, March 31.—Aspec-isl from Rome gives the following as the text of the letter of Cardinal Manning rigtir.:ing the Knights of Labor to a prominent divine of that city ARCHBISHOP'S HOBSE, WEST MINSTER,
LONBON, March 11, 1887.
Mv DKAB LOBD: I have read with great assant Cardinal Gibbons' document in relation to the Knights of Labor. The ily See will, I am sure, be convinced by hi exposition of the state of the world. I hopo it will open a new field of U.*mght and aotion. It passed the understanding that oSoioas persons should be listened to rather than church offioials. Snrely the epis copate of the whole world is the mest powerful and direct instrument in the handi of tVe Holy Bee for gathering correct local knowledge and enforcing its decisions. Who can know the temper of America. England and Ireland as t^ey who have a finger upon the pulse of the peopleT Hi herto the world has been governed bv dynasties henoe the Holy Bee will have to deal with the people, and it has bishops in close, daily and personal contact with the people. The mere cleaily and fully this is peroeived the stronger Rome will be. Never at any time has the episcopate been so detached from civio powers aud united in itself, and so well able to see, realise and to use its power. Failure to see and use these powers will breed much trouble and misohief. My thanks are dna the cardinal for letting me share in the argument. If I find a oopy of my lecture on "The Dignity and Rights of Labor," I will send it to him. It will, I think, qualify me for knighthood in the order. Bretano some years ago published books on the guilds, in which he proved that the association of labor and craft goes bask to antiquity, bnt there is this notioeable fact: In the English and Teutonic laws they were recognized, favored and chartered in the imperial and Latin laws they were rigorously prohibited. We are at this day, as a church, the mother, friend and protector of the people. As the Lord walked among them, so his church lives among them. The cardinal's argument is irresistible.
Tour affectionate servant in Christ, HEN BY EDWARD, Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster.

All who use them confer upon them the highest encomiusas and give them credit for making cares—all the proprietors claim for them. I have kept them since they were first offered to the public. They took high rank from the first, and maintained it, and are more called for than,all others combined. So long as they keep up their high reputation for purityland'usefulness 1 shall continue to recommend them—something I have never done beforo with any patent medicine. J. J- BABCOCK,
