Consumption is on the Increase.

From recent statistics it appears that consumption is on the increase throughout the western states. The principal causa, it is stated, is due to neglect of common coughs and colds. It is the duty of all persons whether of delicate or robust health, to have a remedy at hand at all times in readiness, and a cough or cold may be broken up before it becomes seated. Ballard's Horehound Syrup will cure any cough except in last stages of consumption. A stitch in time saves nine. Always keep it in your house. Sold by J. E. Somes, corner Sixth and Ohio streets, and J. & C. Bauer, corner Seventh and Main streets.

THE TURF NEWS.

Two weekB from next Tuesday the gates of the fair grounds will again swing open for the annual spring races. The races of the trotting association are no longer an experiment, but an established success, destined to endure as one of the great centers for the development of the speed and endurance of the horse and lendiBg its aid to the great breeding establishments. The races this year will be no exception^ to the previous ones of the association, but will likely far excel previous meetings. Large excursions will be run during the meeting, benefiting every business man. Some great horses will be here during the races. Horses which have made reputations on the turf and those who have Blill their reputations to make.

JJOTES.

W. P. Ij ams has fifteen head at the track.

Captain Boyce is training W. R. McKeen's string. Two large stables of horses will be here from Texas.

Joe Bassett, sire of Johnson, 2:063^, died at Janesville, Wis., on May 11th. Cecelia, blk. f., 3 years old, by Grimalkin, dam by Idol Wilkes, sold for $G50 at the Fasig sale.

One day last week, at Boston, John Shepard drove Arab and Mill Boy together a quarter in 34 seconds.

A gray horse belonging to Hanry Robinson worked a mile in 2:33 the other morning, driven by John Jackson.

Cambridge City races occur this week. The entry- list closed last night. Bride & Armstrong have the pool privileges.

W. P. I jams will again probably officiate as starter. He performed his duties in a very acceptable manner last Bpring.

Sixteen head of Electioneer colts belonging to Senator Stanford were sold in New York for 129,150, an average of $1,821.90.

John Splan has purchased for $2,000 the brown gelding Nobby, 2:18%, 13 years old, by Nobby, dam Fanny Rawlins by Sir Wallace.

C. J. Hamlin, of Buffalo, N. Y., says that he expects to be able to drive a team of Village Farm trotters in 2:15. The team will probably be Belle Hamlin and Globe.

The Latonia derby will be worth $8,000 to the winner, and some of the beet horses in the country are engaged, including Proctor Knott, Come to Taw, Castaway, The Don and others.

Jack of Trumps, the runner, who broke down after winning the first heat in the half mile running race last spring, is at the track. He has recovered from his injury, and is in fine condition.

Stamboul, W. P. Hobart's $55,000 stal--lion, is in training in California, and will be sent to lower his record of 2:14%. Senator Rose, former owner of the horse, has wagered $10,000 that Stamboul will equal or beat 2:12 this year.

Mr. M. C. Grey, of Cottonwood Falls, Kan., bought of Mr. I. N. Sheppard, of Paris, yesterday, Allen Herr,full brother of Joe Davis, record, 2:17%, by Dr. Heir. Allen Herr is a chestnut stallion, 3 years old, very fine stfle, and very promising as a trotter.

W. H. Wilson, Abdallah Park, Cynthiana, Ky., has so!d to A. B. Ashbrook, of the

same

place, for $2,500, the yearling

bay filly Moonstone, by Sultan, 2:24, dam Montana by George Wilkes. This filly is a full sister to Ottaman, for whom Mr. Wilson refused an offer $7,500.

Robert Stewart ships White Stockings to Cambridge City to-morrow night. HeBtarls in the free-for-all class. The horse worked a mile Tuesday in 2:22j4 and it would be quite a drawing card for the meeting if they would offer a special purse for the horse to beat the Btate record.

Isaac Murphy has entered into a contract to ride again for Lucky BaldwiD. Isaac was paid $10,000 last season, but as Baldwin has been always generous to him, and has not

strong a string as

last season, the colored "Archer" says he "had to knock off a little," and will not receive as much as he did in 1888.

The stables at the driving park at Columbus, embracing nearly one hundred stalls, were destroyed by an incendiary fire Thursday night. The loss is fully covered by insurance. The Bartholomew county trotting association began work re-building the burned buildings, which will be completed before the commencement of the spring races on May 27.

Proctor Knott, the great crack who did not win ihe Kentucky derby or Clark stakeB, is a very sick horse. Sam Bryant thinks his horse was poisoned before the Clark stakes by somebody, as large sums of money were wagered on his chances of winning the race. His race would indicate that something ailed the horse, as he made a very discreditable showing.

An ungainly looking Creole bred pacer, used in a batcher's cart at New Orleans, showed more speed than was really needed in that business, and so his owner placed him in Lew Glenns' hands for development. He was named Joe Davis, and after two weeks of handling he paced a mile over Audubon park (a half mile track with flat turns) in 2:28 1-5 and.was far from being tired at that.

Phenomenal prices were realized at the Fasig sale at Cleveland last week. Guy, 2:12, 9 years old, by Kentucky Prince, dam Flora Gordon, was bought in for $29,750 Tuisun,:5 years old, record 2:30}4, by Electioneer, dam Susie by George M. Patchen, sold for $10,100 Clara, 2:21 ch. m., 9, by Leleand, dam Lady Belmont by Hambletonian, Bold for $7,500. Mambrino Sparkle, 2:17, b. m., 11, by Fisk's Mambrino Chief, dam Kate Sparkle, by Sparkle, sold for $3,950.

There are now three horses in Robert Bonner's stable in New York City with records below 2-20. They are Maud S. 2:08%, Rarus 2:1314 and Pickard,

THE TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS, SUNDAY MORNING, MAY 19,1889.

2:18^. Maud 8. ii looking the pictum of health this spring. Mr. Bonfter jogs her every morning. Rarus is beginning to show the effects of hia 22 years, bat still has a good appetite and is always ready for hia feed. He occupies the box opposite to the one Dexter died in a year ago. Pickard's box is between the pair that cost Mr. Bonner $75,000.

Something of a sensation was caused at the Louisville track last Friday by the purchase of three of F. B. Harper's horses, Valuable, Lavinia Belle and Libretto, by W. L. Cassidy for $30,000. The purchase was made by Mr. Cassidy offering that sum for three choices of the entire Mantnra stable and Mr. Harper accepted. Mr. Cassidy thereupon paid what money he had on his person as a guarantee that the trade would stand. Oa Tueeday morning a telegram arrived stating that F. B. Harper had released W. L. Cassidy of bis offer of 130,000 for the running qualities of Valuable, Lavinia Belle and Libretto.

A war of the first magnitude between the Bookmaker's association and the jockey dabs, both East and West, appear to be on the eveof breaking out. In the West Colonel Lswis M. Clark, the president of the Louisville jockey clubj has summoned James Palmer, the president of the Western bookmaker's association* to appear before the executive committee of the Louisville jockey club to show cause why hie association should not be ruled off for endeavoring to prevent bookmakers from doing business on their track. In the East the American, Brooklyn, Coney Island and the New York jockey clubs and the Monmouth park association have formed a combination antagonistic to the Turf alliance, or the Eastern bookmaker's association.

I ST, POLYTECHNIC NOTES.

The school team and freshman club will have abase ball game on Saturday next.

The seniors are practicing ball in earnest, looking forward to a game with the faculty on field day....

There was no session yesterday out of respect to Mrs. Heminway, who was a liberal patron of the school.

The athletic association directors met Thursday and decided on the programme of exercises for field day at the end of the term. There will be more contests this year than last, and it is anticipated that the exercises will be much more exciting in many respects.

Many of the students are looking forward to pleasant and profitable tripe during the coming vacation, but the most beneficial will probably fall to the lot of Mr. Vorskeiler, '92. He will go to the City of Mexico to erect a manufacturing plant for a large German machinery company. He will have entire charge of the work, and it is indeed a compliment to his ability that he should be selected for the work. The work will not prevent Mr. Vovskeiler's return next year.

The R. P. I. ball club's treatment at the hands of the Wabash team was far from decent. Anticipating game with gentlemen Manager Wiley invited the Wabash club to come down, guaranteeing $30 for all expenses. The invitation was accepted and an agreement made for the Polye to play a return game in Crawfordsville yesterday. The Wabash team came down and were treated as gentlemen, and by good playing of their battery won!' ".jthe game. The Polys make' no kick, although it was known that the battery was not college tallent, presumably professional paid men, and very little was said when in the eighth inning of the game the Wabash sccond baseman was caught with the second ball, either waiting an oDportunity to make afoul play or steal the base. The game did not net expenses, but the Polys hoped to reimburse themselves yesterday. On Friday a telegram, coming at the R. P. I's. expense, contained word that the Wabash cUb had gone to pieces, and that the game could not be played, the club refusing to pay the guarantee. To say the Polys are indignant doesn't express their condition of mind.

The School Board.

At the regular meeting of the school board on Friday evening, plans and specifications for improvements on the Tenth district colored school building located at 1500 south Thirteenth-and-a-half street, were adopted. The school accommodations in this portion of the city have been insufficient for some time, but these improvements will satisfy the demands far into the future. The present building of one story will be made two stories, and the addition of cloakrooms, etc., will make a very convenient place. The improvements will be made during the summer vacation, although bids for the work will be received by the board at the next regular meeting. Bills tq the amount of $23 50 were ordered paid, and ninety-nine library certificates were approved.

THC LEGISLATIVE FOWKB.

It la Upheld by tha DWUM of the Supreme Court.

The supreme court yesterday decided the case of Alvin P. Hovey vs. the state ez rel. John W. Riley. The case is the one in which Riley, elected a trustee of the blind institute by the legialature, brought suit in the Marion circuit court to compel the governor to issue him a commission. Judge Howland, of the circuit court, decided in favor of the plautiff, and the governor appealed to the supreme court. That tribunal, as will be

Been,

affirmed the decision of the

lower court. The opinion was written by Chief Justice Elliott, and is concurred In by Judges Mitchell and Olds, but not by Judges Coffey and Berkshire.

The opinion declares that all uf the governing officers of all the benevolent institutions of the state may be appointed by the legislature, it is said that, by practical exposition, growing out of the long-continued practice, the constitution has been construed as to vest in the legislature the power to appoint this class ot offioe.

Many authorities are cited to show the effect of practical exposition, and it is said: "Practical exposition establishes a principle. Particular instances fall within general rules, and practical exposition establishes general rules for the government of particular instances. The science of jurisprudence is not made up. of particular instances, nor can it be so constructed, for, if it be a science at all, it muBt be composed of principles. To UB it is clear that what we have here to do is to find what principle has been established and under that principle bring the particular instance. The effect of the long-continued practice is to establish the principle that the If gislature has power to appoint the governing officers of all the benevolent institutions, or, at its option, authorize their appointment. It iB narrowing the effect of this practical exposition much beyond what reason and authorty gratify to hold that it applies to some of the institutions and not to the others. We can not believe that the general assembly may rightfully appoint the trustees of the hospital for the insane and yet have no authority to appoint those of the institution for the education of the deaf and dumb."

It is also said in the opinion: "The office is a peculiar one, and one which it is evident the constitution did not intend should be filled by the electors of the state at a general election. It is, aa it seems to

UB,

an office which may proper

ly be regarded as within the control of the general assembly, the control belonging to that body as an incident of the right to establish and maintain benevolent institutions. Officers of the class under immediate mention are not such as every elector may justly claim aright to hold solely on the ground that he is a voter and all voters are entitled to hold office, but they are offices which the legislature may restrict to competent persons by prescribing what shall be the qualifications of those who enter them. It iB within the authority of the legislature to require that the officers of this class shall be selected from different political parties, or that they shall be persons of peculiar skill and experience. It may, indeed, provide for the appointment of women to this class of offices, as has been done in Eome instances. If we are wrong in affirming that in this class of offices the legislature may prescribe particular qualifications, then the practice of all the departments has been in many instances a persistent violation of the constitution."

Judges Coffey atid Berkshire Btated that they did not concur in this opinion, but wrote no dissenting one. The points wherein they differed from the majority concuring are not known therefore. The dinpute between Professor Collett and Professor Gorby, in relation to the office of chief of the department of geology, is in nowise affected by the decision, as it iB entirely distinct as to the principle involved.

Dull Tlind of Postal Changes.

The dull thud of falling heads in ine railway mail service punctuates the hours. Yesterday the following changes for political reasons were announced: John Baker succeeds James R. Collins, Louie Ksrn takes J. B. Colorinne's place, E. C. Rankin succeeds W. H. Rabb—all of the Indianapolis and Peoria run. G. W. Stoneberger succeeds C. D. Ogden, on the Pittsburg and St. Ljuis run W. C. Livezey takes C. M. Hardy's Vandalia berth, and James Watts succeeds J. R. Sparks, on the Bee line."

Fatal Sickness Among Horses.

A sickness among horsep, similar to malarial fever, has become widely prevalent in the city. Pritcbard says 30 per cent, of the horses in the city are affected with it. It does not generally prove fatal, though a number of horses are dying lately of this and other causes. Horses should be protected from the sun, the veterinarian says: Fifty-six horses belonging down town have died snce the troubles comp'ained of began. Kregelo has lost several valuable animals.—[Indianapolis News.

In tha Courts.

The Case will case was not concluded in the circuit court yesterday. One witness is yet to be examined. The issue in the case is whether or not Mrs. Case was of sound mind when the will was made, whether the will was obtained by duress and whether it was properly executed. The hearing will be resumed Monday.

Judge Mack has appointed Samuel Royse, Wilson Naylor, Robert Gilcrees and W. A. Shores to act with the board of county commissioners and with them to compose the board of equalization.

AMU8CHNTR.

The Melville company, which 6pens at Naylor's for a week's engagement tomorrow night, has on its roster the names of some well-known theatrical people who have appeared here on different occasions with some of the beet companies traveling. Mr. J.

Rutledge is a California aotor of some prominence, he having starred the ooast in "Michael Strogoff" and ''Jack o' the Minee," last seaaun playing a twelve weeks' engagement at the Grand' in San Francisco. Mr. Rutlege's last appearance here was with the Union Square "Banker's daughter." Mr. R. W. Bowers was here with Joeeph Murphy's "Kerry Gow,n and will be remembered for his low comedy vidian, and his "Mr. Hay, sur, a woird in sayson." The other members of the oompany are Billy Barbour, Sam Charles, Harry Stuart, Sidney Hawdins, Sam B. Moore, Calla Barbour, Annie M. Quinn, Ruth Hawkins, Little Jessie and Ida Melville. The company come highly recommended from Ohio and the east where they have been the entire season, playing in some citiee two and three return engagements. The repertoirre promised has the virtue of being free from the "chestunts" usually produced by the popular prioe companies, many of the plays being entirely new here and others never having been seen here at cheap prices.
