The Memphis Avalanche declined a communication signed '"Old Confed," beet use the copy reader could not de cipher the writing.

The Express desires to say to its Democra ic contemporaries in Sullivan and Evansville that the fact that Mayor Kolpera was re-elected is not a verdict of not guilty" to the indictment. The jury was "packed" by the friends of the accuseds The indictment was that Mayor Kolsem's deciding voice in the board was against the issuance of orders to the police to enforce the law and that in consequence gambling rapidly increased. And so we repeat to the EvanBville Courier that the "Express does mean all it says," and to the Sullivan Democrat that what the latter says ic sarcasm is true, that "the city is overrun with gambiers who stand about the street corners in broad light of day," As to our other esteemed contemporary, the Sullivan Times, we can only say that its opinion of Carter Harrison does not coincide with the one we hold. We do not think he "did the people of Chicago a great desl of good," and utterly reject the statement that it is a compliment to the laayor of the city to be likened to the Chicago gamblers' frie d.
Our contemporaries like many of our citizens do not realize the extent of the evil here, and but for the assured fact that ii will soon be eradicated we would be csst down to such depths that the Courier's advice to "cheer up" would be appropriate.
The election is over the patriotic citiZ 'ii has done what lay in bis power to redeem the reputation of Terre Haute and secure more honest enforcement of the law and better government. He need not feel discouraged to retire from the fight disgusted. His failure to accomplish all that he anticipated should only nerve him for a continuation of the corfl.ct. There is no doubt but the eleciion of a worthy man would have insured a more prompt enforcement of lawo which have the support of ail but the vicious and those in sympathy with them. A beginning has been made, and what has been gained ia not to be despised. The truth is, the conservatism and iibtlessnets of respectability has been pitted against an element that worked to w'd,
A i-tory has been going the rounds to tho (feet that a New York physician who had been very skillful in treating diptheria, defied the Deitv to produce a esse which he could not cuie. Eight cases were produced in his own family, and those who believe in special manifestation paint to the craves of the children in thy Fallsburg cemetery. Indiana now comes forward and produces an instance of the same nature. A man while engaged in blasphemous conversation was strict en with paralysis, and died within au hour. All this is the merest superstition. There are men living in peace, hapjiiness and prosperity who every hour of their lives commit sins'compare 1 to which blasphemy is nothing—sins that affect the welfare of their fellowmen, that bring woe and suffering upon the helplo ar.d the innocent. There are others who thrive upon ill-gotten gains, and get a thousand times more pleasure out of existence than half the pious men and womeq of the churches whoso souls are tormented by remorse for imaginary transgressions. Terre Haute has an exampli—a gentleman of ability who was ready to have acted as counsel for the devil, when he was on trial before the Salvation Army the other night. Has he been stricken with paralysis, or appoplexy Ha3 his family been decimafrd by any terrible plague? Did his eyelashes or hair shrivel up, or flames shoot out of his mouth and nostrils, as befel a Tennessee infidei several mouths ago? Not a bit of it. He ia as hale and hearty as he ever was. He has not lost a case or a c'ient Such tales may do to frighten children, but people of ordinary intelligeace do not believe that the Almighty, who hold* the universe in the hollow of his bands, will turn aei -Ie to personally punish, out of all the millions who inhabit the earth, some insignificant Smith or Jones, for his douots, expre-'8sd or unexpressed.

The whole world has been taught to believe that it was Lincoln's, and it would probably have so continued to believe for all time, but for the appearance of Colonel Dann Piatt's book on the war, which corrects this grave historical error, and ooaclueively proves that it was the pen of Colonel Donn Piatt, and not the pen of Abraham Linooln, which made this tremendous stroke.

A Letter About Terre Haute to a I.ockport, N. Tf., Paper. Someone signing "Wash" writes as follows from here to the Lockport, N. Y., Journal:
Here at Terre Haute, lnd., a town of thirty thousand people, they have a county building alone that cost $600,000. The people are more courteous, and I believe carry more enthusiasm in their breasts than they do in the east. And yetth»y feel insulted to call Terre Haute a western town, within a few miles of the greatest coal fields in the country where we get much of our hard bituminous coal. Nine important railroads ran in here, and the Vandalia car shops, employing many thousand men, is quite a s'ght. They make and repair freight cirs, engines, eir wheels, and all their appliances. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Gecige Likert, who is the leading per50)isga for miles cf railroad around here. He fpared no time or pains to ehow me through all the car shops. There were sixty monster iron horses in one round house, all needing the tender care of thsir doctor in kind. Cars of all kind are sent in for repairs and it is a pretty sight to see such a bee hive of industry. They have large iron rolling mills, flour mills and all of the manufacturing industries except the pasteboard pail, which does not seem to have struck hereyet. Terre Haute is situated on the Wabash river. In fact the town is up and keepa up in all hat is good in way of improvements or anything elee, and perhaps Lockport might tske a lesson and learn just a little more, by imitating of the examples set by your Terre Haute people. The people have a most beautiful laid out ground' for their cemetery called "Woodlawn."- I visited the sacred spot where lie the remains of all that is mortal of Mr. Job Graves, who formerly resided in Lockport, N. Y., and who has a sister, Mrs. L. Olmstead, residing there on Adam street. He is interred on what is called Myrtle avenue, and the Masons and Order ol Railway Conductors attended to all the details incident to the final sleep and resting place. The floral display must have been very elaborate,* judging from the fast-fading sweet-ecen ed flowers that formed the anchors, crosses, &c The Bsv. B. L. Smith, of this place, officiated at the services. Mr. Graves was a conductor on fhe Vandalia railroad between Indianapolis & St. Louis, and wdl be remembered by many Lockport people as a jolly, good natured Job. He is now hushed in sleep by the unknown hand of death, which struck him down while he was discharging his duties as conducior, and stepping to the platform of his car fell back dead, on March 4tb.

HERE AfJD THERE.
A ease in which $6 was involved has been stricken from the docket in the Circuit court by Judge Mack. The incidents of the case began about ten yean ago when a farmer named Beatty, residing in the southern part of the county, died. He was insolvent and left quite a number of small debts. The bills were made out against the estate and were presented to Mrs. Beatty who certified that they were all correct. A Mr. Volker was in possession of the $6 bill. Suit was brought over a year ago to recover the amount of the indebtedness. The case was railed before 'Squire Hayes, and then before two juries in the justice's court. At the last trial the jury decided in favor of the defendant. Mrs. Beatty stated that she was sick when the bills were presented, to her. She did not remember anything about them and could not recall that she had bigned them. The costs amounted to aboHt $49. Finally it was decided to appeal the case to the ciicnit court, which was done. Judge Mack yesterday looked into the matter. He found that the appeal was illegal, that the prayer was not made properly and that no bond had been filed. Accordingly he threw out the case, which will perhaps put an end to the wrangling over the paltry sum of $6.
There is considerable petty thieving in the city. A portion of it is said to be due to boys appropriating various articles. It would seem that some effort should Le made to check the practice. If boys are rtsponesble for the thefts they' should be made examples of for the benefit of the rest. An instanca occurred at the Fairbanks warehouse, on Canal and Main streets, the other day, which may be used by wc.y of illustration. The warehouse ia filled ^ith wheat and at one of the second story windows the grain ie piled against the glss?. Four youcg hoys with sac«s threw stones and broke the windows, allowing the grain to run out. They stood under the window and caught the shower of wheat as it came down. When each had procured about ss much as he could conveniently carry he made off with the wheat. Snch youngsters should be punished for the ffense before they become bolder and commit a graver crime.
Decoration Day will be observed on May 30, Monday. It is the intention of the Grand Army to fitly observe the day iu this city. Thus far definite arrange ments have not been consummated. There will be exercises during the day and also at night. A committee of arrangements las been appointed by Morton post, consis'in? of George W. Miller, Warren Davis and P. Davis. The committee has written to a number of persons extending an invitation to deliver addresses on the occasion. Two orators ivill be needed, one to make an address during the day and one at night. As soon as the orators are selected the committee will fully arrange the programme in all the detail.
There are very many complaints made at police headquarters of the bad condition of street1?, alleys, yards and other lact'B where filth accumulates. The force of three sanitary policemen is none too large, as they are kept busy mskiag the rounds Every day a lorg Iht of orders to clean up is sent out to property holders. There are many complaints of stagnant water in streets. Such places are full of malaria and the boird of health pays especial attention to all fuch reports A vigorous campaign fgainst uncleanlihtss has been entered upon and it is to be hoped it will be kept up.
TWO WISH MEN.
The Witty iloin*rk of Chester Faulltntr Ioiilant. Washington Speoial.
Chester B. Faulkner, chief of the records division of the pension office, is an Indiana Democrat, and in his official capacity Mr. Faulkner displays great executive ability. Me ia devoted to his "pubiic duties, and Senator Voorhees is his idol. Mr. Faulkner has a vein of inimitable humor, which ocoraionally crops out in unexpected places. This happened the other day when he met Civil Service Commissioner Edgerton, who is alio an Indiana man.
When Mr. Faulkner met the Indiana civil service commissioner the following brief, but spirited, conversation occurred. Said Mr. Faulkner: "Them rules of yourn, Commissioner Edgerton, ain't what they ought to be, They're all wrong-, and you ou ht to change them." "It is just possible," said the commissioner, in his lightest, dignified manner, "that you do not understand 'them rules.' You know, Faulkner, that even you don't know everything." "Thai's so," retorted Faulkner, "I don't know everything, just as vou say but I'll tell you how it is Edgerton. Yo" and mfc together do know everything. You, by yourself, know it all but one thing, and that is that yon are a d—d fool, and I know that, and that's how you and me together know cveiything."
Upon thisthfse two drstinguished Indianisns pnted in angjr. The entente cordiale at list acjou ils had not been restored.

General Ripley, "some cocked hats for our uniforms, and the day before the attack I meta with a box in his hand running toward Fort Moultrie. 'Where'llI find General Ripley?' he asked me. 'And what do you want of him?'said I. 'Why,'said the breathless youngster, 'I heard they were to start firing on Fort Sumpter, and I must get this hat to him before they start in.' He thought the attack could not be made unless I was in full regalia. As it happened, I was awakeced an hour or two bi fore the first shot was fired by a false alarm that the signal to begin hostilities had been given, and I rushed out in my night-clothes and caught up the the cocked hat on the way. That was all my uniform—a cocked-hat and a night-gown."—[New York World.

Bbb—ttnnal Story About the WMt Polat .•!—Mn-tlis Questions on Sale. Then Is a sensational story going the rounds, says the Crawfordsville Argus* News, In regard to the competative examination of applicants for the appointment to the West Point cadetahip that waa held at Bockville last week. The questions were printed in Rockvllle and it is openly charged that they were offered for sale on the streets of that city for ten dollars a set on the day proceeding the examination. Before the examination commenced last ^Thursday morning Congressman ohnston spoke of the report and told the boys about to be examined to hold up their hands if any of them had seen the questions. Of course no hand was held up. It was a Parke county boy who won first place making a grade of 99 per cent and A. D. Willis, of this city, avers that be could not have made that good an average unless he hsd seen ths questions before hand Mr. Wills' son, fsrker, wss one of the contestants and received a general average of 90 per cent, which was a very good grade and would entitle him to twenty-four months' license if he was being examined with a view to teaching.
A Cashier's Book Management, Joijbt, III., May 6 —Seventy five to one hundred thousand dollars of the fnnds of the Will county National bank are missing. The officials of the concern admit that there is a big short age, but say that it was caused by Cashier Knowlton's bad financial management, and his peculiar methods of handling the funds of the old Will County Savings bank. The latter was a private concern, but Knowlton was manager of it as well as cashier of the National, and both banks were, until recently, in the same building. The cashier has resigned and is now in Canada with his wife, but Captain G. P. Phelps, a brother of the American minister to England, who is his counsel, denies that he ia a defaulter, has made arrangements to make good the shortage. An investigation is now in progress.
The New York Yioar Oe eralship. NEW YORK, May 6.—A rumor to the effect that the Rw. Dr. Arthur J. Donnelly, rector of St. Michel's Church, was to be made vicar general of the diocese of New York, to succeed Monsignor Quinr, gained currency in Catholic circles last evening. It larked official confirmation, but the peculiar fitness of the veteran priest, his close friendship with the archbishop, coupled with the situation of affairs in tbe diocese, led Catholics who talked about the matter to believe thAt the report was true, and that the apiointment would be ffioially announced after the funeral of Monsignor Quinn. The office is now held by Monsignor Pr.wton, and he wou'd continue to be associated in the diecharge of its duties.
No-. Kstabtisbtn Pr.c.denl HAIIFAX N. S., May 6 —The fishing 6choocer Humboldt, of B)oth Bay, Maine, is to be allowed to buy new lines here, by permission of the Dominion customsJfiuthorities. In extendin tbe privilege in this case, the minister of customs states that it must not be considered that any other siniilar applications from American fishermen will be received with the same favor and that such requests must not be looked upon as matters of right. The Humboldt is simply allowed to make a purchase of lines as an act of courtesy, and in granting the r. quired permission no precedent is established. The Humboldt is one of the American fishermen which were damaged in the recent severe weather jn the Weetf ra Binks and put in here for repairs.
