A license of 8250 and retrenchment in the city expenditures..

The $250 saloon license is one meassure now imperatively demanded to help the city out of its financial difficulties. Moreover, it is a just measure, debt or no debt.

The Minnesota legislature did right in casting off Sabin. And we are more convinced of it now that some one has

come

forward to say that he was financially generous toward his poor, afflicted wife before he cast her off.

Talking about state pride and Indianapolis' interest in state affairs we desire to call attention to the fact that the Indianapolis Sentinel, supposed to be a state newspaper, having at heart the wel fare of all the state sent representatives here to ask for $500 for "writing up" our oil discovery.

The stock company which proposes to publish an evening daily newspaper has been organized by electing officers and a board of directors. It has been given out that it would be independent in politics, and it may be, but if one were to forecast its political predelictions by the well-known attitude of its officers and a majority of its board of directors one would be safe in saying that it would be ultra free trade and decidedly Democratic.

It is a striking-illustration of the value of newspaper advertising. A patent medicine company would pay thousands of dollars for a like paragraph printed in the news and editorial columns of newspapers as this has been, THE EXPRESS believes in news^sager advertising, but like all

The noses of nine people out of ten deviate more or less to the right or left. Perhaps this fact may explain why so many good men have gone wrong. They were simply "following their noses."

BOUL. Kansas City Journal: Why would It not be a wise idea to divert some of the funds raised for the benent of the Johnstown sufferers to those of Seattle. They certainly stand in need of help, and considering the already large amounts of money which have been raised by the former It would seem to be eminently proper, especially for the Western people, to turn some of their charitable offerings toward Seattle.

The Labor Organization.

CHICAGO, June 15.—The organizing committee of the new labor organization known as the Brotherhood of United Labor, met last night, with T. B. Barry as president. It was reported that labor organizations, representing about seven thousand members, had signified their intention of uniting with the new order. Mr. Barry presented his plan of government for the new order, whioh is a radical departure from the methods used by the Knights of Labor. All power is to rest in the local organizations, and the annual convention and the executive oSioers can only advise measures, having no power to formulate a policy of their own. They can not order a strike or de«Hare one off, nor can they levy an assessment of any kind, but may recommend one though they can not enforce it. The organization contemplates local, central, state, and national branches. John E. Abies, of Davenport, Iowa, and George E. Detwiler, of Chicago, were elected delegates to the world's congress of labor, which is to meet in Paris July 14.

STORIES OF PUBLIC IEN

It is doubtful whether any chronicle or romance of the days of chivalry contains so touching an instance of matrimonial devdtion aa that lately told of General Grant. When the honors came upon the Grants, like Borrows to the house of Denmark, "not single spies, bat in battalions," the mistress of the White house began to renew the dream. of her girlhood—to have her cross-eyes straightened. Wishing to surprise the president, Mrs. Grant, telling nobody, Bent for the most eminent oculist in America. He willingly promised to undertake the operation which he assured her would be easy to accomplish, and without danger. The good lady could not contain herself for joy, and, woman-like (am I right, meedames?), gave way when she saw her husband, and confided to him her secrtat, the pleasure she had in store for him. He'looked wistfully into those dear eyes which had held him with tender gaze through all the trials of a checkered career, and said, in his simple wayr "Julia, I wish you would not change them. I love them as they are, and they might seem strange if altered." Nor JUauncelot, nor Romeo, nor lover of any clime or age, ever spoke words of tenderer gallantry than those of the hero of Appomattox..

A story is told of, the boyhood of George Westinghouse, Jr., who is known everywhere as the inventor of the celebrated air brake which bears his name, and later by his gigantic operations in electric lighting and natural gas, which Bhows that the germs of his inventive ability were very early ripe for development. George was very fond of playing ball, and was very often absent from his work at his father's factory. It was at last decided that George's work should be arranged on the piece system, instead of the time system,

that so soon as he

had finished his task he could seek the seductions of the ball ground. The quickening effect of this arrangement was soon made manifest, for without an" previous knowledge of the now wel known disk method of cutting metals, he experimented and discovered that with a circular disk of soft sheet iron on the highest speed of his lathe he could split a file. He quickly utilized this method of completing his daily task and repaired so early each day to the ball ground that his father at first feared a miscount had occurred. On watching George at work, however, he soon saw for himself ho\v the remarkable feat was a is he S W

Edwin Booth and Lawrence Barrett were in Chicago for a day recently, stopping over there, on their way from California. They took dinner at the Grand Pacific and Mr. Barrett then spent some time about the corridors. At the hotel a hundred or so nurserymen are holding a convention and it is in the office that the electioneering is done. Barrett was about to light a cigar when a nice-look-ing old man accosted him with a. hearty greeting and asked him if he was enjoying himself nowadays.

The great actor supposed the stranger was one of his admiring constituents and

mystified. "By the way, did you ever Bell the Huntsville (Ala) folks?" "Sell them! No, sir, nor the inhabitants of any city." "Well, you still got your settings?" "They will be retouched during the summer.' "That's business. So many folks don't understand it. Trees should always be dipped in a puddle made by stirring up water, earth and a little fertilizer to the consistency of thick cream. The item of adding the water when the hole is nearly filled is of special importance— that is, if—" "Well, I bid you good day." "What! you ain't going to miss the last session?" "What session?" "Good heavens! ain't you one of us?" "I don't think I am," and the tragedian walked away.

The abashed man said he'd climb a tree if he didn't think Barrett represented Ohio at the last nurserymen's convention.

Clara Belle writes that inventor Edison has declined to become a parlor entertainer. Of course, with his millions of wealth derived from his electrical machines, nobody would be fool enough to offer to pay him for amusing her guests, but a certain Fifth avenue matron undertook to accomplish it by diplomacy. She was going to give a reception, and through a mutual friend she invited Mr. Edison to be present. He devotes no time or attention to society of any sort, but he allowed himself to be persuaded to become a guest on this occasion. He has become accustomed to fame and the attention of scientists, but it is possible that he felt just a little fiattered by the countenance of New York swelldom. Anyhow he committed himself to go to the reception. On the day previous he received a note from the prospective hostess very politely requesting him to bring along a phonograph, as she thoHghtits operation by him would be highly appreciated by the company. Then he discerned the trap that was set for him, and keDt clear of it by writing his regrets at being compelled to break the engagement

A New York correspondent for a western paper describes the billiard-room of Calvin S. Brice at his New York house as panelled with matting, although not a Japanese room. Mr. Brice's billiard table is considered one of the handsomest in town. It is of oak, elaborately carved, and particular attention has been given to making its legs objects of beauty, as the legs are almost the only chance that the designer has. For Mr. Brice's table the cloth was specially dyed to match the antique blue green of the ceiling which gives the color tint of the room. It appears that the cloth used in billiard tables is a special weave made by a man named Simoni in Belgium and can be procured nowhere else. The green of the ordinary table is as well known as the grass from whiqh it borrows its tint. Occasionally other tints are used, gray, for example, but in very rare cases. One of the most astonishing tables just ordered, and which the makers call a freak, speaking in the language of the sideshow, has a bright yellow cloth cover, yellow satin pockets and brass covers to the pockets. It was ordered through a large decorative firm here, and it would be interesting to know for what gayminded and strong eyed player. The handsomest billiard table ever made in this oountry was for Fatti, who, as is known, is an enthusiastic lover of billiards, and it is graciously said plays a

good game. The table was of rose —. amaranth woods, with hand-painted panels bordered by relays of ivory. Itooet 93,000, and is now at Craig-y-nos, her castle in Walea.

It is something rare to see worth 160,000,000 risking his bones on ites. John D. Rockefeller did not intend last winter that he should be seen in his favorite pastime, for a high board fence shuts in the refreshing green that used so agreeably to lie exposed for the benefit of tired town eyes on each side of his house, and also screens his private akating rink. Thia is not for roller skating, but is an ice, rink, and is intended primarily for Mr. Rockefeller's own diversion. Here in the winter he skates every morning before going down town, and is joined usually by some of his business friends. There are skating classes for the minoen and daughters who do not skate, and all the provisions for a merry time. It is doubtful if out of Russia another man gratifies his taste in this particular way, and there is something delightfully naive in a man so fatally rich prosecuting his boyhood's tastes and skill in this ingenious manner in the heart of a city.

EXCURSION ECHOES.

What Some of the Visiting Editors Told Their Headers. Worthlngton Times: The Times is In receipt of an elegantly printed Invitation to become the guest of THK EXPRESS on the occasion of ths oil excursion to Terre Haute to-day (Thursday.)

Evansvllle Bulletin: The press and citizens of Terre Haute can learn Evansvllle many a lesson in the manner of entertaining strangers and guests. Terre Haute and her merchants covered themselves with honor and glory on yesterday, and there Is no doubt but what Terre Haute is enjoying a genuine boom. She deserves it.

Oakland Pilot: We received a neat invitation last week from the genial-editors of the dally

be long until the Hoosler state. Spence's People's Paper: Wearelnjeceipt of a neatly printed card of Invitation from THE TKRBE HAUTE EXPRESS office, to attend the monster oil excursion to that city to-day. We are very sony that circumstances are such that we cannot attend and partake of the hospitalities of the city, as well as those offered by the EXPRESS office in the grand mid-day lunch spread by the proprietors. Hay success attend all future efforts of THE EXPRESS in building up their city, one of the prettiest, wealthiest and healthiest in the Union.

Washington Gazette: Just now Terre Haute Is experiencing quite a boem on account of the discovery of oil a few weeks since. The result of the discovery has been to call the attention of capital to the place and to wake up the moneyed men of the city, and everybody Is being benefitted by the good fortune of the company which put down the well that turned out to be a gusher. Everybody is talking oil and gas there now and derricks are springing up In all parts of the cite like mushrooms after a warm spring rain. More than a score of companies have been formed and are preparing in great haste to pierce the earth in quest of gas and oil. Companies are also being organized for the purpose of furnishing fuel gas. They propose to find natural gas If possible, and if not, to manufacture gas for fuel from the oil. This is a bright year for Terre fiaute aad we congratulate our lflends there.

Greencastle Democrat: Thursday was a gala day with the oleaginous city on the Wabash. Excursion trains were run on all railroads, and many people took advantage of the low rates offered them. Some went to seethe horses run, while others were there to see the oil wells flow. The Innumerable derricks scattered throughout the city confirmed them in the belief that the Invaluable deposit was to be found heneath it, and that the people were "going" for It Thousands of bottles of oil were distributed among the visitors as souvenirs of the excursion, and nothing was left undone to make it an enjoyable one to the citizens of the three states—Illinois, Kentucky and Indiana—who were In attendance. Carriages were nrovlded for their accommodation, and the vlsl•'InnjUnLtwr*i r— all o^which sfctwsa thfl,,!^ jBaqtajma ilospltatfeT halves, and so boundles* soon be supplying their fortunate cities around them

Casey Acorn: Last Thursday the different railroads leading into Terre Haute had a heavy contract on hand that of carrying passengers into that city to see the oil display. The fare had been put down to one cent per mile, and everybody turned loose upon the gay and festive city. Terre Haute was dressed up in Fourth of July style, to show the people of the Wabash valley, and the rest of mankind, how she felt after having tapped the lake of oil beneath her busy avenues. Such jubilating we never saw or heard of before. Bands were out to welcome the thousands all day! hundreds of new sights were on exhibition—here, there, and everywhere, but it was "oil, oil, oil" from the river to Twenty-fourth street. At the Dlall well pretty ladles would dip their ungloved lingers In the greasy reservoirs, get it on their diamond rings, then to their costly handkerchiefs, and next, of course, to their precious noses! Multiplied thousands of bottles of it were carried away and 1b now being exhibited in every town and vicinity throughout the lengtq and breadth of the Wabash valley. The proprietor of THE EXPBKSS sent invitations to representative men in the surrounding towns to be their guests during the day and among these the Acorn man had the honor of being choson to represent Casey. THE EXPRESS is one of the essentials of Terre Haute. Selecting the hour when they knew it would be most appreciated, THE EXPRESS seated their guests at a dinner, such as Is rarely excelled on any occasion.

Marshall Messenger: Thursday last was "oil day" at Terre Haute—chat Is, there were excursions on all the roads leading into that city, carrying people there to see the wonderful oil well. There was about one hundred went over from this city. The business houses of Terre Haute were handsomely decorated, and the streets were alive with people In factwe have not seen as large a crowd In Terre Haute since some of the big meetings of the campaign. From early morning uatll late in the afternoon a perfect stream of people could be seen going to and from the great oil wel. Gentlemen were there to show you the "sights," and every visitor was handsomely treated, and all who desired could get a bottle of the oil to carry home with them. George M. Allen. Esq., editor of THE EXPRESS, "done himself proud" by Inviting all the editors of the surrounding towns to be guests on that day, and to take mid-day lunch with him In THE EXPRESS building. Two tables were spread off the editorial rooms up stairs, and about twenty editors sat down to a bountiful repast, and to say that they did ample justice to the good things would be putting It mild. Mr. A. done everything in his power to make all feel at home and enjoy themselves, and he succeeded admirably. All left THE EXPBKSS building wishing Mr. Allen and the paper much prosperity and along life. In company with George W. Harper, of the Boblnson Argus, we visited the oil wells and there took In the sights, but did not remain long, as there is not a very pleasant odor around the well. Taking everything Into consideration, oil day at Terre Haute was a grand and glorious success.

Robinson Argus: The editor of the Argus was in Terre Haute Thursday last, on the occasion of the "oil excursion" to that city on the railroads centering there. The special and regular trains broughtln large numbers of people, but the great Dlall oil well was not the only magnet of attraction, for the spring races were going on at the fairground. 'People were thus enabled to "kill two birds with one stone." The oil well, which Is pouring forth a volley of 60 per cent good coal oil, when refined, at the rate of twenty barrels per hour, attracted a number of visitors who came and went In a constant stream throughout the day. There are some twelve or fifteen other wells In the city and vicinity now In course of construction, the stockholders In each of which are confident of a rich find of OIL The citizens of Terre Haute mily appreciate the advantages to accrue to the city, and the boom to result In prices of real estate as a natural consequence of being an oil field, and they were assiduous in their attentions to strangers, extending them every courtesy possible, and taking pride in showing the many and different manufactories, fine buildings and places of interest, for which the city has long been noted. The managers of THE DAILY EXPRESS bad a collation spread in one of th« rooms of their building on Printing House square, to which a cordial Invitation had been extended the editors of papers adjacent to the city to be present and partake. The Argus editor had the pleasure of meeting a number of the brethren there with whom he was acquainted, and forming the acquaintance of others. While this was a pleasure, the enjoyment of the good things prepared for the inner man was none the less one also. Real estate In the city has not taken any jump In prices, but this will certainly not be the case long, and speculators evidently have a good and sure field for Investment there now. In fact, with other advantages and resources as a manufacturing and business center, without the aid of the oil find. Terre Haute has tor along Ume, and will continue to In the future, furnish an opportunity for safe Investment, with a certainty of a good Interest on the capital, luteal estate In the corporate limits and adjacent thereto.

Father Beaaofaamp died ripein yeara, having lived to dee four generations on the stage ol active business I'fe. Born in the year 1906, near thecitjrof XiOuisville, Ky., at a time when sohool privileges were only luxuries of the wealthy, his education was limited. He was not a finished scholar, but being by nature endowed with an inquisitive mind, -fae eooo became deeply interested in matters of local and state government. He was a diligent reader, and during the*etive yeara of his life but few men were better informed in the general literature of the day. Mr. Beauchamp was a man poassssed of verr strong likes and dislikes, snd if he admired a man hit attachments were bat little Bhort of sincere worship. Politically, he was strong in his advocacy of the principlee qf the party with whioh he affiliated yet in all his antagonism and denunciationa of his political adversaries' he never forgot the duty he owed to his neighbor and friend, nor overstepped the bounds of a true

For uninterrupted seriee of years, dating back almost to the time of his earliest connection with the church, he had been a member of the advisory council and official board, and out of the great respect for his memory, the entire officiary of the church ssrved as active and honorary pall-bearers the funeral.

One of the most enjoyable social oc sions of Mr. Beauchamp's married life was the celebration of his golden wedding, in July, 1878, on which occssion there were present, of his children and grandchildren, some thirty persons, only two having died previous to that event.

Mr. Beauchamp was never a recipient

of public or private favors, and was not rich in the things of this world. Yet he was generous to a fault, and his charitable disposition exceeded his ability to give. No one went away empty handed who sought alms at his house. All were liberally clothed and bountifully ted from hie table. Bis disposition was ever of that hopeful nature which always sees the silver lining of the beautiful clear sky, above the darkness of the thick clouds. His life was one continued stretch of bright est sunshine, whioh Bpread its holy influence in the quiet home. He has kindled an altar of love and affection in the hearts of his children, whioh will barn with devotional reverence to his sacred memory while they live.

Mr. Beauchamp was married to Miss Ophelia McCandless July 6,1828. She died August 4, 1879, since which time he has made his home with his youngest daughter, Mrs. Samuel Bridwell. Of the surviving six children Mrs. DePuy, Mrs. Hanna, Mrs. Allen, Mrs. Bridwell, William and Charles Beauchamp, all were present at the bedside of the patriarchal father and with tender, loving hands administered to his every wish, and smoothed the downy pillow of the dying saint. He lived the life of the righteous and has gone to reap the reward of holy living. Peace to his memory.

CHURCH NOTES.

Children's day will be celebrated tomorrow morning by the German Methodist Sunday school. A special programe has been prepared.

Mail: "The two new pastors in this city are valuable additions to the pulpit, ana have won favor- although they have been here but a short time. The Bev, Crum, of the Congregational Church, is very much Jiked as a pastor. He is an energetic worker, and in the pulpit is a power. He does not speak from manuscript, and has had the altar removed, leaving only theplatform. His discourses are forcible and at times eloquent. He will grow in popularity upon better acquaintance. The Bw. Brant, of tho Christian Churchy also speaks without manuscript and discards the altar. He is quite an elocutionist, and his idleas are clothed in choicest verbage."

D.,"superintendent of the Indiana State Sunday school union, will hold a conference of the pastors, superintendents and teachers of the city Sunday schools at the Central Presbyterian Church to-morrow evening at 7:30.
