At a meeting in Chicago Wednesday, a national association of master builders was organized. Its object is to foster and protect the interests of contractors aud builders, to acquire, preserve and disseminate knowledge of value to them, to devise plans for the preservation of the building trade through a more practical and thorough apprenticeship sys tern. There is in all this no threat implied or uttered againr-t capital, which, ai though it is the bone and sinew of goveremtut, of late years has been anathematised as the juggernaut that has crushed the masses under its unv-ieldy weight. "There is no indication that the m.vter build»ra of the country expcct to achieve prosperity by working f«s^ and turuiog out work of an inferior quality.

which involves care, increased labor and dilligence. Such an organization as this is destined to thrive it commends itself to all intelligent people, for it asks nothing that it does not propose to merit by excellence and honesty. A resolution offered by the secretary is significent. It is to the effect that strikes and lock-outs were to be prevented by conference and arbitration, but he sffirmed at the same time the absolute independence of the individual to work or not, to employ or not, as a fundamental principle not to be questioned. This organization, then, does not propose to dictate to the employer, who has earned and saved the capital invested in his business, assuming all responsibility, enjoying the benefits of profits if there are any, and suffering the consequences of losses that are inevitable in any occupation. It permits the employer to exercise his own judgment in regard to whom he shall or shall not employ, as it permits the employe to enter service or leave it at will. The love of liberty is inherent in the people of a free count, y, and whatever is aimed to curtail the rights and privileges of any class, whether it is individual or concerted action, is destined to fail. All the means that may be employed, men, money, brains, will not serve to perpetuate any organzation that is iu^opposition to the spirit of the government and its free institutions. Powers and municipalities behind them might postpone but could not prevent their ultimate dissolution. In this republic, no class, high or low rich or poor, ignorant or educated, religious or atheistic, can arrogate to itself exclusive rights and privileges. Rights and privileges cannot exist if they are not of a quality that all who are so disposed may ccjoy their benefit*.

THE EXPKES8, TERRE HAUTE, SATURDAY, AMtlL 2, 1881
HERE AND THERE
For some little time there was talk of the organization of an athletic association in this city. Subscription papers were taken around and quite a number subscribed for stock at $5 per share. Quite a large number of subscriptions were leceived. The matter was allowed to quiet down somewhat, but it has been decided to make another effort to put the association on its feet. The council chamber has been secuiea, and next Thursday evening a meeting will be held for the purpose of discussing the matter fully and taking some definite action. Should the meetiug decide to push mat ters the proper committees will be appointed and work will commence immediately. With an energetic soliciting committee it would not be difficult to raise a large amount by subscription for stock. Shares have been placed at $5, and at this figure most everyone ran become a member of the association. It is to be hoped thrt an association of some kind will be formed. There should be a large attendance of those hiterested at the meeting next Thursday night. Terre Haute is somewhat behind her sister cities in the matter of athletic sports, and it is time that more interest should be taken in this direction.
The gravel road fever seems to have struck the farmers of this county. It is a very beneficial affliction, if the phrase can be used with propriety. There are quite a large number of gravel roads talked of, and from present indications it would seem that quite a large number are to be built. One new road haa beer added to the list of proposed gravel highways. The county commissioners have received a petition from W. 8. Burgan, praying that the right be granted to gravel a piece of road in Lost Creek township which extends to the National roa 1. The road about a mile and a half long. The petition siguec! by a large number of residents of Lost Creek township, and quite a large sum i3 subscribed for the completion of the improvements disired. The petiiion stipulates that the amount subscribed may be paid by labor performed on the road The petitioners are anxious to have the road graveled, and n% doubt will be successful in their effort".
The Union Labor party in this city hss done nothing as yet in regard to the nomination of a city ticket for the ap proaching election. In Cincinnati a ticket has been nominated and an active campaign has been commenced. The efforts of the affiliators with the new party at Indianapolis have not been succeeding well. At a meeting recently held, but little if any results of importance were obtained. There has been no organization effected. In this city nothing has been done except the ratification of the platform adopted at Cincinnati. The third ticket talked of may and may not be put in the field. It is a.question which remain? to be answered in the next few eks.
There was quite an exciting runaway on east Main street Thursday. A team of horses attached to a street car became frightened and ran away.

The tpam w»s finally stopped without any damage being done.
MR. WATSON'S MISSING BRIDE.
Distressing Seqnel to a Recent Accident on the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago Line.
PITTSBURG, April 1.—Chief of Police Blackmore, of this city, is in receipt of a letter from Mr. Charles S. Watson, of No 409 Madis"n street, New York city, soliciting the assistance of the police department in ascertaining the whereabouts of the three-weeks' bride of the writer. The case is a very mysterious one in many respects, and is a sequel to the wreck of a passenger train on (he Pittsburg. Fort Wayne & Chicago railway, near Leetonia, last week. The letter states that Mr. and Mre. Watson were msivied at Sterling. U!, nbont three weeks ago. Business engagements required his immediate presence in the East. His bride, by previous arrangement, was to meet him io this city. Mrs. Wntson left Chicago on the ill-fated train, since which time diiigent inquiry has failed to revoal her whereabouts. Her husband fears foul play, as, in addition to valuable baggage, she is said to have carried large sum of money and valuable jewels upon h. persoc, The letter says: •'She is five feet three inches in height, weighs about 126 poll ads. is very dark, with black hatr and ryes, and fine, even teeth. She wore, I suppose, a scarlet traveling dres= snd a seal muff with a pocket. She was of very nervous temperament, and the shock of the wreck may have unseated her reason. Please exert yourself tc ascertain her whereabouts. Moi ey will be no object in this matter, and I pray that you may be able to relieve my anxiety."
Inquiries here show that there were but three male passengers on the sleeper demolished in the wreck. If on the train a' all, she must have been in one of the coaches. The city detectives are taking steps to unravel, if possible, the mystery in connection with the case.
Grover Will Go Horseback Rifling. WASHINGTON, April 1.—Many of the president's friends have if late been urging him to take active outdoor exercise, as soon as the weather would permit. To-day's Baltia ore Sun refers to the subject as follows: "The president, it is said, has yielded to the advice of bis friends, and will take to horsemanship as a means of exercise. Secretaries Bayard, Lamar, Whitney and Fairchild have described to him the benefit they derive from equestrianism, and ha has consented to join them in Bome of their gallops across the country. Mis. Cleveland is said to be delighted with the idea of her husband taking to horseback riding. The president's seal brewns are not well adrptcd for saddle horses, and early additions to the White House stable may be looked for."

NEW YOKE, April 1.—Herr Johann Most, the notorious anarchist who w.»s sentenced to a year's imprisonment on Black well's Island for inciting to riot, was released at daylight this morning, and in company with several trusted friends came to this city. When he landed from the tng-boat at the foot of Evt Fiftieth Btreet he was met by about 100 of his followers who rsshed to congratulate him on hia release. With seven other anarchists who hid been waiting for hia.

THE CHAMELEON.
How it Changes Color—The Effect Produced by Certain Automatic Muscles. Grant Allen in Cornhill Magstine.
There is a tiny crustacean, the chameleon shrimp, which can alter its hue to that of any material on which it happens to r,"6t. On a sandy bottom it ap pears gray or sand-colored when lurking among seaweed it becomes green, or red or brown, according to the nature of its momentary background. Probably the effect is unconscious, or at least involuntary, like blushing with ourselves—and oohodv eyer blushes on purpose, though they do Bay a distinguished poet once complained that an eminent actor did not follow his stage direetion because he omitted to obey the rubrical remark, "Here Harold purples with anger." The change iq produced by certain automatic muscles which force up particular pigment cells above the others, green coming to the top on a green surface, red on a ruddy one, and brown or gray where the circumstances demand them. Many kinds of fish similarly alter polor to suit their background by forcing forward or backward certain special pigment cells knowp as chromatophoree, whose various combinations produce at will almost any required tone or shade. Almost all reptiles and amphibians possess the power of changing their hue in accordance with their environment in a very high degree and among certain tree toads and frogs it is difficult to say what is the normal coloring, as they vary indefinitely from buff and dove-color to chocolate-brown, rose, and even lilac.
But of all the parti-colored reptiles the chameleon is by far the best known, and on the whole the most remarkable for his inconstancy of coloration. Like a lacertine Vicar of Bray, he varies incontinently from buff to blue, and from blue-black to orange again, under stress of circumstances. The mechanism of this curious change is extremely complex Tiny corpuscles of different pigments are sometimes hidden in the depths of the ehanselon's skin, and sometimes spread out on its surface in an interlacing network of brown and purple. In addition to this prime coloring matter, however, the animal also possesses a normal yellow pigment, and a bluish layer in the skin which acta like the iridium glass so largely employed by Dr. Salviati, being seen as straw-colored with a transmitted light, but assuming a faint lilac tint against, an opaque absorbent surface. While sleeping the chameleon becomes almost white in the shade, but if light falls upon him, he slowly darkens by an automatic process. The movements of the corpuscles, which either cause them to bury themselves under the true skin,or to form an opaque ground behind the blue layer, or to spread out in a ramifying masa on the outer surface, and so produce as desired almost any necessary shade of gray, green, black or yellow. It is an interesting fact that inany chrysslids undrgo precisely similar changes of color and adaptation to the background against which they suspend themselves, being gray on a gray surface, green on a green on a green one, and even half black and half red when hung up against pieces ot parti colored paper.

Novel Application of Flectricit.y. Cincinnati Artizan. The covered street at Milan, now well known as the Victor Emanuel gallery, js roofed with glass and completed by a largo dome, round the interior of which runs a chain of gas lamps. The lighting of these lamps at a considerable elevation used to present some difficulties, and was always a source of risk, until an hrrangement was isade for doing the work bv electricity. A miniature railway h3s been constructed close to the gss burners, on which runs a little electric locomotive carrying a wick steeped in spirits of wiue. When it is desired to light the burners the wick is set on fire and the locomotive started on its career." It flies round the dome, rapidly kindling the light?, and exciting much interest amon/ the crowds that assemble nightly to witness the performance.

SIGNIFICANT!
Some of the Lut Pablle Opinions of a Qreat Han. New York Correspondence Cleveland leader.
Qne has a most excellent opportunity to study "man" as represented by the average New Yorkers. Among the wealthy classes, very many of them have the waxy skin, dropsical fieeh, and "puffed eyes" that are indicative of sericas kidney aftection. "Bright's disease", is plainly written on their faces. Since G«neral Logan's death the snbject of rheumatism is being discussed by the medical profession.
Every ^intelligent person, with an^ knowledge of the human system, is well aware that if the kidneys are in good condition all unnecessary material is regularly carried ofl by them. If not, various acids, such as uric acid, one of the cvief causes of rheumatism, are left in excess, creating deposits that cause all sorts of chronic organic diseases. It would seem, therefore, that rhpumatism, like dropsy, is not a disease, it the re suit of a disease, and it is safe ts say th tt if the stomach and kidneys aro kept in healthful condition, there will be no deaths from rheumatism.
General Logan was well aware that his, disease was of the kidneys, and once ex pressed himself in indignant terms at the folly of doctors treating him for rheumatism, when it was the kidneys that caused his attacks. The high living and the excesses in all things, prevalent among wealthy men in large cities, especially in New York, is the chief cause fc.r Bright's disease, and the aristocratic trouble known as rheumatism, even as insufficient and improper food bring about the same results among the very poor.
The above article which we reproduce because of its general interest, ii very significant. Tie public believes that rheumatism is an effect of diseased blood, this disease being caused by uric acid or kidney poison. Enough of this is developed daily to kill several men, and if it is not removed by the kidneys as fsst as formed, it gradually ruins the health.
This fact iu a scientific demonstration. If doctors do not admit it, it is probably because they do not wish to attract attention to the menace deranged kidneyso ffers to the general health, since they have no authorized specific for these organs.
General Logan knew what his real trouble was, and he recognized the nonsense of treating the effects—the real seat of the disease was the kidneys. Senator Sittig, of Illinois, whose vote elected Logan senator after four months of balloting, tells us that Logan often complained to him of great distress in his kidneys. Disease of the kidneys always produces rheumatism, and besides that, it caused paralysis, apoplexy, impotency, stomach and blood disorders, brain troubles, female complaints and count less other diseases which would almost never develop if the blood was kept free of uric acid or kidney poison.
These facts the public recognizes even though medical gentlemen for very evident reasons, will net publicly acknowledge them, lest, perchance, some proprietary medicine, like Warner's safe cure, which is sold by ell dealers and is now admitted to be the only scientific specific, will get the benefit.
Fie on such bigotry! It has been au thoritatively stated time and again that there can be no real sound health if there is any false action of the kidneys. Insurance companies refuse millions of risks on this ground alone, hence it is that there is surh universal popularity given to the great preparation named—a popularity that is based upon intrinsic merit.
Too much dependence upon profes sional advice, especially in matters over which medical men admit they have no power, too often results very disastrously, but of what use to the victim is experience gained by fatal disaster!
How much better it is to be guided by an unprejudiced public opinion in snch matters.
Had Logan been so guided, he might have been spared many years.
MAKING MONEY.
The
'Alemoiial" Card Backet, and How it Is "Worked. Logunsport Pharos.
There is more than one way for a persons to get rich without having to work hard. Quite frequently new racket is sprung upon the people by some artful individual, and the unsophisticated inhabitants of a community bite at it like a hungry fish would a minnow. The Pharos man, in his rounds to-day, was shown what is known as a "memorial card." Of all 'lakes'' that have thus far been brought to light, the "memorial card" is in advance of any that has yet been seen in Loganeport. Not very long ago one of the oldest and best known citizens of this city died and bis remains were laid to rest in Mt. Hope cemetery. The deceased gentleman left no nearer relative than a grandson, his wife and all his children having long ago joined the silent majority. The announcement of the old citizen's death appeared in a number of leading daily papers throughout the country. One of these papers WBS obtained by John Russell & Co., of Merchantville, New Jersey. This is the firm that deals in "memorial cards." and thinkiugthat the relatives of the deceased Logansport citizen would want something of that sort., then sent a tair and areditable sample of their work in that line to one of their number. The card was received through the postoffice yesterday, and a glance at it would convince anyone that Russell A Co. thoroughly understood the business in which they are engaged The card is about six inches in length and four in width, and contains four linee of obituary poetry. This is followed by the words in "Loving Remembrance of" who died March, 1887 Following this appears a hymn which the deceased requested his friends while on his death bed to sing at his funeral services. How Ruesell & Co. found out what hymn was selected will probably never be satisfactorily explained, The card is well gotten up and is a credit to the enterprising New Jersey parties. With the csre came tho follow ing circular: "Dear Friend :—Learning that you have lost a beloved one by the hands of death we send herewith one of our memorial cards, and trust it may meet with your sincere approval. It is very suitable for an album, easel or mantlepiece. "It is also a very appropriate memento to distribute among your relatives and friends at home and abroad. "Should there be any mistake in the printing, or should the card be injured in the mail, return it to us and we will rectify the same. "Verses of your own selection, not exceeding eight lines, will be placed upjn our memorial cards, at an additional cost of fifty cents on any number of copies. "Should you decide to retain the enclosed copy, be kind enough to send us 25 cents either in one cent stamps or postal note. "Remember this memorial card ia sent to you for inspection you are under no obligations whatever to keep it. All we ask is that you either return the card or send as 25 cents in payment of same within tea days, and for that purpose we enclose an envelope with our adaresaon. Use the envelope we send you, it is numbered."
An Anatomical Excurses.'. Norwich Bulletin. The tinman brain and stomach an only font sight—n iaehts apart—that

is, the brain and stomach of the same man—but its curious what a roundabout course the former takes to minister to the wants of the latter. Suppose, for instance, a man is tn author. His brain, via his fingers, produces the manuscript of a story. The manuscript ia sent to the publishers in New York. The publishers send him a check— perhaps generally they send back the manuscrip the author takes the check to a-bank, gets his money, goes to the purveyer, buys food or drink, according to his appetite, snd at 1«ngth the purchase is introduced through the mouth, pastes down a few inches of ceiophagus and ultimately reaches its drstination. The brain had to take a journey of hundreds of miles to travel eighteen inches. Funny, isn't it?
