There are indications that Mrs. (I on gar. the president, of Ihe Woman .Suifnigo association of the state, took the bit in the teeth, as tho saying is, and ran away with the convention, it seems that she had so much to say and on so many sub jeets that tho other distinguished ladies present were cut short or snubbed altogether.

Atlanta is on the eve of another prohibition election. Tho city will vote ou Saturday on tho question of adopting for another two years tho law prohibiting the sale of liquor. Tho dispatches from that city say that there is a total suspension of business, and merchants as well as employes stand in groupes ou tho street corners wildly gesticulating over tho merits of the question. .Nearly every business lirm in the city is about equally divided. Tho women are thoroughly stirred up and walk tho streets with blue badges on their breasts, rii fact, tho women were last night the center of tho light, having declared their purpose of having lunch stands at the different polls wlioro white ladies will wait on negro men who will vote the prohibition ticket. The old people shako their heads at this innovation, but a prominent colored man says of it: "1 see in it the groatest danger. White ladies are inviting this familiarity, and yet if one uf our young men. emboldened by this invitation, should speak to one of them the next day, he would stand mighty good chance of getting lynched." Monday night a young gentleman escorting two young ladies homo from tho theater, happened to remark that ho was "wot." At once they dropped his arm. dismis.-vd him and went home by themselves. This social ostracism is so pronounced that its etl'eets will bo felt long after prohibition shall have become a dead issue. Both parties have parades every night this week. On Friday night uaeh party has announced monster meetings which will probably last all night, so that the voters may attack the polls ear] v.

Mr. J. Boaver Webb, the designer of the English yachts Galatea and Genesta, was married at Washington yesterday to Miss Alice May, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. John F. May. The wedding was very elaborate as to details, and was attended by many fashionables. The knot was tied in much less time than it takes either of Mr. Webb's yachts to sail one.

Mrs. William Astor, of New York,, broke tho ice of two seasons of virtual retirement by an elaborate dinner party for twenty-two peoplo. The mansion was brilliantly lighted and the banqueting table Bet with tho famous silver service. Tho affair was characterized by the combined splendor and elegance for which tho former entertainments of the hostess have been noted.

The trepidation under which the friends of poor old George Francis Train have been laboring is lifted. ''Psycho" has reconsidered his self-imposed sentence of expatriation and will return to the children and the birds in Madison square. New York. It is probable that tho old gentleman has long since regretted the momentary whim that led to his change of companions.

LOYALTY TO THE QUEEN,

A friend of mine told me of a pathetic incident that took place the other even ing when tho Britishers were being naturalized. One old fellow could not seo the print on the naturalization paper so he got ft friend to read it. When the words "renounce forever ail allegiance and tidelity to every foreign prince, stato, potentate and sovereignty whatsoever more especially to Victoria, queen of tho United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland" --were reached, the old man's eyes grew moist, and he said with a tone of sadness in his voice: "I've boon a faithful subject to her for more thai: thirtyfive years, and I don't, know how she'll feel about it." But then the thought of the republic, whore he had made his home for years, came to him, and, rubbing his big hand across his eyes, he signed the paper that made him a citizen.

BETTER THAN A BASKET FOR LUNCHEON. A prominent physician says that childrens' school luncheons should not be placed in the old fashioned lunch basket or tin box. as bad odors always cling to a much used receptacle. What he recommends is a fresh, clean napking wrapped neatly round the bread or other edibles, and a pasteboard box to hold it. nil. The box can then be thrown away when the meal is done. The good sense of this will strike every person given to wholesome living anil it will also delight the box manufacturers who should immediately get up a cheap little box especially adapted to the convey ance of school luncheons. Parents, no doubt, would be glad to buy these boxes as they buy matches by the quantity, should they supersede the luncheon basket. I Boston Herald.

THE PRIDE OF THE LONDON ZOO. The hope of zoological London is at this moment a young gorilla brought from Gaboon, and in stature and bulk about the size of a boy of thirteen. But Mumbo inherits only too plainly the aversion of the anthropoid apes to a cold I climate. His room is warmed constantly to a temperature of 7'2 degrees, and he has clean straw for his couch and the most tempting delicacies in sweetened puddings and bananas, but he has no appetite and is evidently in doleful grief at haTing been kidnapped from his native forests. A most amiable and accomplished female chimpanzee, the famous Sally, lives next door, but even the dulcet tones of her humorous confabs with a keeper have not a single charm for home-sick Mumbo.

Magazine Nutrs.

The American Magazine conies out very much improved, not only in its appearance but in quality of contents. Its illustrations show a much higher order of workmanship than heretofore, nnd the indications are that its corps of contributors has undergone a corresponding change for the bettor. Its present management is to be congratulated on making it worthily what it claims to be "a representntiveof American thought and life."

The November Harper's Magazine has a charming frontispiece from a painting by F. S. Church, entitled "A Fairy Tale," representing a beautiful maiden accompanied by a number of huge tigers. Following is an anonymous sonnet. appropriately entitled "A Child Shall Lead Them." The contents of the number includes tho usual Tariety.

November ends the Wide Awake year with a Thanksgiving number in all but tho technical sense. Besides the long stories that come to an end—there are none beginning next month is the time to begin there i6 rich and varied fare. "Baked Beans" and "Brown Bread" were little twin negroes, to whom befell as strange an adventure on Boston Common as if they were winged fairies all of which is related in as jolly a little story as ever was told—by Edward B. Payne. Jessie Benton Freemont describes a visit to Hans Anderson at his home in Denmark: and those brief four pages are full of delightful history. The Luck of Edenhall gives occasion to an illustrated sketch of the real Edenhall, the manorheuse in England. There are pictures of the hall, in the lawn, in the park, the church, an old cottage and Eden bridge.

The North American Review for Norember possessts special interest from the fact that it contains for its leading article Robert G. Ingersoll's reply to the open lottor addressed to him in the August number by tho Rev. Dr. Henry M. Field. Mr. Ingersoll's letter fills thirtythree pages, and is entitled "The Agnostic Side." It contains some of the most radical utterances of the noted agnostic. In tho series of articles on "Possible Presidents," John Sherman is treated in this number. It is understood that tho writer of the article is Judge Lawrence, of Bellel'ontaine, O.

The November Scribner's has for its leading article a paper on "Wagner and Scenic Art," by William F. Apthorp, music critic of the Boston Transcript. The Rev. Henry M. Field describes a visit to Grand Kyblia, the Switzerland of Africa. In "A Diplomatic Episode" Olive Risley Seward, adopted daughter of ex-Secretarv Seward, furnished information. never before published, relating to the failure of tho negotiations for the purchase from Denmark of tho islands of St. Thomas and St. John. Harold Frederic concludes his story "Seth's Brother's Wife." Rebecca Harding Davis contributes a tale of the Louisiana bayous entitled "Tirar Sault.,' Among contributors of poems are Andrew Lang, Susa Coolidge, Ellen Burroughs, and A. Lampman.

The wedding ring, its history, uses and fashions, is described by D. R. McAnally in Popular Science Monthly for November. In au article on "Agassiz and Evolution." Professor Joseph LeConte shows that Agassiz laid the foundation of thai science, r.lthough ho refused to erect tho structure. Of a more general scope is the article by Professor E. S. Morse on "What American Zoologists Have Done for Evolution."

Several timely topics are treated in the Novemibar number of the Forum. Among them are: "Use and Abuse of tho Veto Power." by John D. Long: "Is tho Negro Vote Suppressed." isy Senator A. H. Colquitt: "The Panama Canal from Within," by George C. Hurlhut: "Shall Utah Become a Stato?" by George Ticknor Curtis, and "Christianity and Communism.'" by the Rev. Dr. II. Van Dyke.

The November St. Nicholas has for a frontispiece a likeness of Grandfather Lepage from the painting of Bastien-Le-page. of whom there is an accompanying sketch by Ripley Hitchcock. The number full as usual of instructive and entertaining matter for young people. Louisa M. Alcott, David Ker. E. S. Brooks. Almont Barnes, Annie Howells Frechetta, and Margaret Eytinge are among the contributors.

With its November issue Babyhood completes its third year and volume. From the first number it has been« pronounced success, winning praises alike from press and subscribers. There is not a home in the land, blessed with small children, but would be made hap pier and better for its monthly visits. With the November number is given an index of the volumes just closed, embracing more than 1,000 topics, and yet the publishers tell us they have scarcely entered upon their field.

The November number of the Cosmopolitan opens with the second part of William T. Hornaday's important arti­

%T:

THE TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS, FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 25, 1887.

cle, "The Passing of the Buffalo." Julian Hawthorne's article on "The Noble Art of Self-defense," illustrated by M. J. Burns, will attract attention, because of its advocacy of pugilism and the author'B personal reminiscences of Heenan and Sayers. "The California Ranch," by Ella Sterling Cummins, is an illustrated article, giving a mass of information in regard to the great farms on the Pacific Coast. Shirly Dare, in an article on "A Brighter Outlook for Women," advocates the revival in a modified form of the convent for the benefit of unmarried and widowed women that depend upon themselves for support..

A beautiful border,' printed in gold, will ornament the Christmas number of Scribner's Magazine. This issue will complete the first year of this extraordinarily successful periodical.

Mark Twain has written something iu the form of a play, entitled "Meisterschaft," which will "appear in an e»renumber of the Century. The play, as may be supposed, is in two languages.

Monometallism, bimetallism, and trimetallism will be discussed by the Hon. David A. Wells, under the title of "Changes in the Relative Values of the Precious Metals," in the December number of tho Popular Science Monthly.

The fiction in the Christmas number of Scribner's Magazino will show remarkable variety and strength. All the stories are complete in this number. Bret Harte, H. C.J Bunner, Sarah Orne Jewett, and T. R. Sullivan are the contributors —each of them excelling in widely different fields.

Our Little Men and Women comes again with its twenty pages of stories and pictures for youngsters just begin ning to read for themselves. It is as good for its use as a pair of perfect skates and clear ice are their use. Children ought to have as much fun in learning to read as in learning to skate. D. Lathrop Company, Boston, will send a sample copy for five cents in postage stamps and they pay generously for getting subscribers.

The Christmas number of Scribner's Magazine will contain double tho usual number of illustrations, every one of which has been mado from a drawing by some well-known and expert artist. A few of those represented are Will II. Low, William Hole, A. R.S. A. R.Swain GiflTord, Howard Pyle, E. H. Blashfield, J. W. Alexander, George Foster Barnes, F. llopkinson Smith and F. S. Church. The price will remain the same as usual cents.

The American Magazine for December will be tho Christmas number. Its leading article, by Wm. H. Ingersoll. will discuss the peculiarities of the accepted likeness of Christ, and recount the legend of its origin. This likeness is traceable in the sacred art of all Christian nations from the beginning of our era. Mr. Ingersoll will more especially describe the endeavors of distinguished American painters and sculptors to represent this ideal. The article will be abundantly illustrated.

Pansy's story to last all through the year is "Up Garret," sequel to "A Sevenfold Trouble" with tho same people in it. Her Golden Text Story is "We Twelve Girls," an actual history how twelve girls did try to livo by certain golden texts. Margaret Sidney also makes another story out of the children that figured in the "Little Red Shop" last year. Her story this year is "The Old Brimmer Place."

Mrs. F. H. Burnett's new story will begin in the Christmas number of St. Nicholas. It is called Sara Crewe, and it depicts the life of a little girl in a boarding school in London. This number of St. Nicholas will have stories by Washington Gladden, H. H. Boyesen, Frank R. Stockton and J. T. Trowbridge, with an illustrated account of the voyage of the World balloon, written by tho reporter who took the trip from St. Louis last summer.

A sectional question of a somewhat novel kind is raised by the Hon. John A. Kasson. of Iowa, in an essay on "The Western View of the Tariff." He maintains that western communities, especially the western farmers, have the soundest economic reasons of their own. apart from roasons of eastern communities. for favoring the protective principle, and that this principle has a stronghold in the western mind, against which eastern interests or doctrines cannot prevail. The essay appoars as a contribution to the December number of the Forum.

President Bartlett, of Amherst college has written an historical explanation of "rushes" and hazings at colleges, wherein he points out that this peculiar barbarism, which is tolerated by public opinion in some of those very communities whose whole purpose is to promote enlightenment, is curiously enough "a far-off relic of the ancient •benefit of the clericus."' He cites a number of striking examples of tho false notion of duty and morals which prevail in some student communities to prove this interesting historical fact. He points out, too, a very effectivo remedy, and shows how it has worked in several notable cases. His paper will appear iu the Forum for December. 'The ideal Democratic party." says Jameu Parton, in discussing "The Issue Next Year," in the Forum for December, ''is composed of the many who suffer and the few who think, and such a party it measurably was in its great day when tho good Jefferson was chief." "The I Republican party," he continues, "has honestly and boldly taken in charge the supposed interest of a class, leaving to I its antagonist the conquering force of principle, which is the interest of all." With this distinction as a keynote he discusses the several manifestations of party difference as they appear on tho threshold of a presidential campaign.

In the December Century, the authors of the "Life of Lincoln" will fully describe Mr. Lincoln's passage from Springfield to Washington, and tell for the first time all the reasons for his secret night journey to the capital. In the same number they will print the full text of the first inaugural with ail of Seward's suggestions, whether adopted or not by the president. Apart of tho message will be given in fac-simile.

It is a peculiarity of Harper's Ma

zine for December that it contains no continued stories. It is a volume complete in itself. Tbe short stories and

ever. istic tale by Amelie Rives. '"Annia Laurie"' is a pleasing bit of fiction by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, with four illustrations by Reinhart. "Captain Santa Glaus" is by Captain King "Craddock's Heldest" is by Frances Courtenay Baylor: and a delightful sketch of "His 'Day in Court'" is by Charles Egbert Craddock.

RETIRED CHRISTIANS.

A visitor in a church in a big Northern city, whore members are almost all rich and aged, and therefore conservative. described it as the "Church of Retired Christians."

AMUSEMENTS. ^.

The following is from th* Omaha Daily News: "Sidetracked at the Union Pacific depot stands Modjeska's private traveling car, the Mascotte. In it the great actress literally lives during the theatrical season, preferring its comforts to hotel life. The Mascotte must be seen to form any idea of its luxuries. All that man can devise to heighten the tedium of long travel seems to have been expended upon it. Its upholstery and furnishings throughout are of the most elegant and costly description. Easy lounges and arm chairs are scattered throughout in it. and the private rooms with which it is partitioned are marvels of luxury. For the use of the car Modjeska pavo thirty-five dollars a day, besides mileage for herself and her company. This payment includes a service of three servants, a cook, a waiter and a porter. On the News reporter's visit to tHe Mascott. a sumptuous dinner was being prepared, and as he tasted one or two of the dainty dishes, lolling in a sleeppy hollow arm chair, he felt ready to believe that an actor's life had charms, after all. equal to its labors."

Tho holiday entertainment at the Opera house last night was the emotional and quite interesting play, Dagmar, with Miss Louise Balfe in the title role. Though presented once by tho same pleasing actress, the play was absorbing. Louise Balfe is an excellent actress her part of Dagmar calls for versatility and she is very happy either in lighter vein or in the passionate and oxciting passages. She exhibits some very elegant and elaborate costumes. The support though deficient in some points included several who carried their parts satisfactorily. Tho prepossessing Miss Florence Ashbrooke as Coris. Frank Ainbroso as Perceval, and Mr. Frank Roberts as Colonel Stanley were acceptable. While the unnamed actor who took Lord Castleton and Marteli, on the spur of the moment as it were, deserves more credit than criticism under the circumstances. To-night the Planter's Wife will be presented.

Modjeska will appear atNaylor's opera house on next Saturday evening, November iit", in Westland Marston's translation of "Donna Diana, from the Spanish of "Moreto." The Chicago Inter Ocean says: "The part of 'Donna Diana' is a lucky lind for Modjeska, who possesses many of tho qualities requisite for doing it justice. She has elegance and distinction, delicacy of perception, native humor, and above all real warmth of feeling. She also possesses the same charm in bearing and manner that makes her presence upon the stage always a source of delight and gratification. No matter what form or phase of human life depicted the lady of refine ment and culture can always be recognized. The piece offers her some fine opportunities.

The Criterion Opera company, a firstclass organization of thirty-fiva people headed by the charming sop ran a, Miss Lucille Meridith, will have the boards at Naylor's all next week, presenting a number of popular operas at the popular prices, 10c, 20c and 30c.

About live years ago 1 suffered from palulul urination and great pain and weakness in the lower part of my back, pain In the limbs, bad taste In the mouth, disgust at food, nnd great mental and bodily depression.

I live at 211 York street, Jersey City, and ou arriving home one night I found a copy of the Shaker Almanac that had been left during the day. I read the art cle, "What Is this Disease that Is Coming Upon Us?'" It described my symptoms and feelings better than I could If I had written a whole book. My troubles wa indeed "like a thief In the night," for it had been stealing upon me unawares for years. 1 sent for a bottle of Shaker Extract of Roots, or Selgel's Syrup, and before I had taken one-half of It I felt the welcome relief. In a few weeks I was like my old self. I enjoyed and digested my food. My kidneys soon recovered tone and strength and the urinary trouble vanished. I was well.

Millions of people need some medicine simply to act on the bowels. To them I comment'. Shaker Extract In the strongest possible terms.
