is gettiug the best of

Horr in their Chicago debate. The Indianapolis Journal, which bitterly opposes Coin's proposition, in its headlines this morning said: "Coin pushed the fighting and Horr was badly wiuded at the close of the exhibition. The sound money talker refuses to be interrupted and tells his opponent to shut up." At the close of the debate Mr. Horr asked that it be carried over until Saturday. That is the second time he has asked tims. Harvey is thoroughly posted, has ills facts well in hand and is up and a coding all the time.

THURSDAY

§rk?t,

City Engineer Will Cleaiy

condemned two car loads of sewer tile whichjhad been shipped here by contractor James Fry, for Spring street. Without speaking in reference to the merits of Mr. Fry's case, we are indeed glad to know that Greenfield now has a city engineer who has the nerve and the honesty to condemn any and all material that is not A No. 1 and first'class, such as the specifications call for. As a rule too many engineers allow themselves to be improperly influenced and stand in with -concractors so that the tax payers are robbed. We have it from the councilmen that Mr. Cleary looks after the interests of the city, and

Bees

that all jobs

are done strictly according to the plans and specifications and with the kind and amount of material called for. No substitutes go. He has started out on the right track and by always sticking to that course, he will never want for a job in his line, at the highest prices. Honest, competent men always command the choicest positions and the best salaries..

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is,. Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive core now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constituational disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken ^internally, acting directly upon the blood I? and mucous surface of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and'assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its .curative powers, that they Offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to care. Send for list of Testimonials. Address.

THAT TRIP TO BOSTON.

This merited distinction means that every requirement for comfortable and delightful traveling is provided on these lines.

The Pennsylvania is an up-to-date railway system, the foremost in adopting practicable ideas for the convenience and pleasure of patrons.

Stop-over privileges will enable excurcursionists to visit places of summer sojourn along the Atlantic Ocean. Long Branch, Cape May, Asbury Park, Atlantic City, Ocean Grove, and resorts on the New Jersey coast are on the Pennsylvania Lines, and May be reafehed at slight expense from Philadelphia and New York by daily excursions thither during the season. Historic scenes in Philadelphia, including Independence Hall with Old Liberty Bell and numerous interesting relics, the United States Mint, Masonic Temple, Fairmount Park, the site of the Centennial, may be visited within the stop-over limit.

Returning excursionists may make the trip over different routes to be selected at the time tickets to Boston are obtained. By this arrangement the return journey may be mada via the Hudson River, Niagara Falls, and other attractive places. If excursiouisls wish to reach home in the most expeditious manner, they should obtain tickets with return portion readiDg over the Pennsylvania Lines. When big crowds break up and the rush for home commences, it should be remembered the Pennsylvania Lines always meet all requirements and handle passengers expeditiously and satisfactoriy-

Excursion tickets to Boston account the Knights Templar Conclave will be sold to all applicants at ticket stations on the Pennsylvania Lines from Aug. 19th to Aus. 25th, inclusive. One half the excursion rate will be charged for tickets to be used by children under twelve and over five years of age.

Excursion tickets will be sold at that rate September 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th, 1895. The Return Limit will cover sufficient time for an extended sojourn, and will be ample for side trips. Southern Railways are expected to make special rates to historic places, and to commercial and industrial centers, enabling visitors to see the South at slight expense. Low rates have already been arranged for the lickamauga National Military Park dedication which takes place shortly after the Encampment at Louisville closes. Excursion tickets to Chattanooga for the dedication will be sold over Pennsylvania Lines Sept. 16th to 19th, inclusive.

TERKE HAUTE FAIR RACES

A Great Meeting on the Greatest Track in the World—More than 300 Entries.

All lovers of real sport will be interested in the great meeting of tbe Terre Haute Fair Races, at the world-famous Terre Haute track1 August 5th. 6th, 7th8oh and 9th' at which purses aggregating |30,000 are offered. The programe comprise 21 races, in 14 of which there are nearly 300 entries, and there are seven others to close in a few days, which will swell the grand total'to abont 400 entries. These races embrace all the classes of trotting and pacing, and the best horses of the entire country are entered in them. Alive to the conditions that are prevailing at present the directors have decided upon a step that should go a great way toward making these races the most successful yet given. It is no less a thing than reducing the price of admission to 50 cents, placing it within the reach of all. Ij^is is the only really big meeting at which popular prices will prevail, and when it is considered that the races here will equal in sport and interest those of the biggest high priced meetings of the year, it is seemed that the attendance should be something phe^ nomenal.

All the railroads entering Terre Haute have made half fare rates for this meet-' ing, which will make it possible for all lovers of racing to attend. If you want a prrcgamme and list of entries drop a postal card to W. H. DUNCAN, Secretary,

"For four years I was a sufferer from nervous debility. During that time I took a great many remedies without getting any help until I tried Paine's celery compound. I took six bottles of that remedy and was cured. I cheerfully recommend Paine's celery compound."

So writes Mrs. M. S. Schoonmaker of 8034 Jane street, New York City. Too many women needlessly suffer from nervous troubles, not only in the cities, but everywhere.

Their whole world too frequently lies inside the four walls of their homes. Think of the many persons, men as well as women, who spend most of their lives barricaded within the narrow confines of their dwellings. Summer finds them pale and tired out. Their store of nervous vitality has been slowly brought down by vitiated air aud sedentary life. Their whole system needs a thorough replenishing. The nerves want nourishment, the tissues are not half supplied with material for the repair of their parts, and the great vital organs must have

The power of refreshing and reviving every part of the languid body is what makes Paine's celery compound the marvelous strengthener and invigorator of this century. It is this same capacity to recruit the worn-out nervous system, to rejuvenate the blood that has enabled this remarkable remedy to help so many debilitated persons aud to restore them again to firm health.

Rheumatism, neuralgia, pain in the: region of the heart, debility- and nervous weakness, showing itself in any of its myriad forms, are dispelled by Paine's celery compound. It feeds enervated tissues all over the body. It gives fresh vigor to the entire nervous tract, the brain, the large nerve centers in the spinal cord and the nerves themselves to

their minutest ramification. It rest res ided nervous energy. It seuds new blood coursing through the veins. It makes people well!
