The Laura Keene Combination comes here under the auspices of Harry S. Whipple, who is deserving of mufh credit for judiciously and successfully advertising the same and "working up" what promises to be an immense audience this evening.

LOCAL AND PEItSONA h.

To THE young lady who writes to know if England was at war with any other nations at the time she was at war with America in 1812 we would reply, that during a portion of the time our war lasted, England, in coalition with other European nations, was at war with France trying to crush the colossal power of Napoleon. At that time W. II. Bannister had not commenced the clothing business, and the people know nothing of the elegant piece goods he now has on exhibition nor of tho exquisite fits his cutter, Black, is giving customers.

YESTERDAY a man stepped iuto Cory A Co's hardware store for some powder and got shot. By the way, the sporting men are now roaming the woods is search of game, which is said to be quite abundant. They buy their powder, which never misses fire, and shot that goes right to the spot at Cory A Co's, who are agents tor the celebrated Miami Powder Company and Dupont's Sporting Powder.

AN old chap was in town this morning and thought the war must be over, because he found a place in town where he got two cigars for five cents. After smoking one he retired behind a board fence and came out ten minutes later pale in the pace, but roadv for another war. If bo had got his cigars at Scott ShoafFs, be would bavo avoided the uboye disagreeable result.

ONE hundred families are about to start froui Hamburg and Bremen to sottle somewhere in Texas. But that has nothing to do with the number of families who,dally leave their homes to get supplies of choice groceries, fresh fruits, aud the best country produce at Turner A Shillito's, corner of Main and Seveuth streets.

THE ears of corn are heavily coated with husks, a sure indication of a severe winter which warns us to get clothing suited to the season. When you make up your mind to do so, go to J. P. Brennan A Co. on Ohio street. They have no high reuts to pay, do their own cutting, and can afford to sell ten per cent, less than other houses.

MOORR

A

IIAOQERTY will set you up

as handsome a marble Mantle with grate, as can be found anywhere, will put up a No. 1 Cooking Range, put a cistern or force pump in place, put a tiu or slate roof on your house, hang gutters, put spouting in place, and do any kind of tin and .sheet iron work. Indeed, we hardly know how wo could get along without Moore A Haggerty.

HAVE yon noticed the unusual bustle and stir about the Central Bookstore this week 7 Do you know what occasions it? It Is because Bartlett A Co. have therein the largest, finest and most attractive stock of books, fancy stationery, pictures, etc. They intend henceforth to keep a stock to supply every proper demand, and if tbey tail to have tho article you want, it will be promptly ordered.

PERSONAL expenses ia the part of the great "problem of finance," best understood by thoee who have the undertaking of a large family to look after in hard times to such and all others is monesaved by the purchasing groceries and country produce at R.W. Rippetoes, "White Front not that he sells at much less rates than other grocerymen, bat because his goods are always fresh, there is no waste, and then his weights and measures are of the most generous character. i' •:**.

You ugly women go to Charley Eppert, the well-known photographer, and see what perfectly *ngelic pictures he can make oat of your homely feeee, and yet yen will say the pictures are true to nature.

Tin fashionable young ladies of the city are now buying their jewelry at Riddle's preparatory to the season of balls, parties and amusements. Sensible girls!

a

A "HARD PI.ACE," it is true, but then such places will be found in every city. We refer to the Hard-wire store of A. G. Austin A Co., 172 Main street, sign of the Gold Wheel and Anvil, where can be found every needed article in the hardware line, sold at the bottom prices, by courteous gentlemen

BREATHES there a man with a soul so dead, who never to himself hath said "I'll let mv children starve for bread I'll sell my wife, I'll sell my bed I'll sell my hat from off' my head to get money enough to buy them a pair of shoes at No. 10 South Fourth street, where Boots and Shoes are selling at such astonish! nly low prices.

YOU'RE right when you tell us to write that Wright's is the place to go right away for a good picture. Only first-class work will be permitted to leave the new Grand Central Photographic Gallery. This is a standing rule with Mr. Wii^bt, but we can't see the necessity of it, for we never knew him to do anything than first-class work.

WB KNEW ft man unknown to fame, boasting no title or lordly name, yet whose heart was good faud great who gained, somehow, a large estate. No one knew whenco came his wealth, some vaguely guessed it was his stealth. The story told will open all eyes the secret is, he always buys his goods of Ryan, corner Fourth and Ohio, who meets all demands in the Boobs. Shoes, Crockery, and Notion line li

OLD MAN—" Say, wife, did j'ou buy the children shoes so that they can go to Sunday St^iool to-morrow, looking as well as our neighbor's children

Wile—"Yes, dear, and I got a good bargain. You will be satisfied with the quality ot tbe shoes, and especially the price. I looked all over town, and finally came back to N. Andrews, No. 141 Main street, where I was best suited."

Old Man—"Well, that's just as I said, exactly. Andrews can't shoe line, i:',

"RALLY round the flag, boys! rally once again!" shouting loudly tor White A Melvin and the fresh and excellent family groceries and provisions, to bo found at their popular establishment, in the Cook building, southwest corner of Fourth and Cherry. They are determined to keep a complete stock of nice fresh goods, sell the same at the lowest market rates, and thus give perfect satisfaction to their numerous customers. Remember the place and call there.

"On, George, do buy me some elegant jewelry exclaimed a young lady to her newly married husband, while standing in front ot a certain Main street jewelry store tbe other day.

Yes, my dear," replied George, the sensible fellow, "but not here let us go to S. R. Freeman's, in the National House block, where can be seen tbe most elegant stock ot jewelry, silverplated ware, gold and silver watches." And arm in *rm they lovingly wended their way to Freeman's.

"CLOTHE the naked" is an injunction that John Kuppenheimer daily observes, snd, by the wsy, among the merchants who have commended themselves to the people of this city and surrounding country by honesty in trade, we know not one who has achieved more worthily a high reputation thap John Kuppenheimer. Wo say in all sincerity that fbr ready-made clothing go to his establishment, 118 Main street. Whatever he or his salesmen represent an article to be the purchaser can rely on.

Ix no department of our trade and manufactures has there been more enterprise manifested or ingenuity displayed than in the invention and perfecting ot tbe various appliances for warming and ventilating houses and rendering tbe home duties of baking and eooking oonvenient and easy. A representative man in this department, and one of the most honorable and progressive, is Richard Ball, whoae Immense establishment on Main street Is now stored with an infinite variety of the beat oooking and heating stevea In the market. Go to Ball's all the time for bargains In stoves.

IN the way of hosiery and gloves, the ladies will find a very fine stock, and extra inducements in the way of quality and price, at Riddle's.

THE ladies will always firvd at Gulick A Berry's drug store a nice stock of combs, brushes, perfumery, soaps, and other articles of the toilet.

PERRY TUTTLE is off on a hunting trip, in Illinois, but the sale of teas goes on at his New York Tea Store, at fifteen cents a pound less since the duty was taken off. Here also may be found a choice stock ot groceries, and the best fruits of the season.

MAGUIRE& HUNTER:

A FARM WAGON is something that lasts almost a life time if you get a good one, such as manufactured by Fish Brothers and sold by Ralph Lawrence in this city.

HARNESS up the old mare, John, for I am going to Peter Miller's for new set of harness." Peter Miller is still to bo found in the old Postoffice building. He has a large and complete stock is a first-class workman sells cheap and is attentive and obliging. Call and see him.

THE defeated candidates and all other people can find balm for their disappointed hopes by purchasing their groceries, country produce, fruits, and vegetables at the "White Front," 155 Main street. Democrat and Republican, the victor and the vanquished can there clasp hands while Rippetoe and his corps of accommodating salesman fill their baskets with the good things of this life.

THE sale of foreign extracts in this city and in the surrounding towns has materially decreased since Cook A Davis commenced the manufactured of Pure Flavoring Extracts. These extracts are guaranteed equual to the best, and free from injurious ingredients, while there is no telling what the others are made of these days. Go to Cook A Davis drug store, on Ohio street, for these or anything in the drug line.

IK these days of skillful financiering, everyone exercises his or her mind as to tho most economical mode of spending their money, and many are the tiresome walks aoout town in quest ot the "mostest goods for tbe leastest money." Hundreds of our friends may be saved such wearisome walks by going to Engles A Tutt's opposite the Opera House for their Boots and Shoos. They have a large stock, buy for cash and can afford to sell low.

Iryou would always be in good spirits and have good spirits in you use those to be had of James B. Lyne, wholesale dealer in liquors, opposite the Terre Haute House. His wines, brandies, gins, rums, and Pure old Kentucky Whiskies are admitted by competent judges to be unsurpassable. Tho reputation acquired by Mr. byne is widespread and well deserved, and the attion given to customers extremely satisfactory.
