Gov. Hendricks, his private Secretary Mr Dunning, Attorney General Denny Secretary of State Curry, and Mrs. Oren the State Librarian, were in the city yesterday, and paid a visit to the Normal school. They were much pleased with the school, and much displeased with the

unfinished

and dilapidated appear­

ance of the building, and promised that something should be done for both. As you pass R. Gagg's Art Emporium look in the east window at a pair of cattle pictures, two of the finest chromos we ever saw. In the other window may be seen a pair of chromos, entitled "Pluck," so comical as to provoke a smile at the first glance. Then pass inside and view the hundreds of other beautiful pictures.

One million two hundred thousand dollars is a very snug sum, everybody will admit. This is the amount that the Springfield Fire and Marine Insurance Company has to indemnify you with in case of loss by fire. Go to Hager's Insurance office for policies in this strong company.

A young man disappointed in love, went down to the Main street bridge one evening this week, took off his clothes, cast one long look at the city behind him, and, then—happy thought—started for Riddle's to see the new and handsome styles of jewelry just received there, made a selection, cast himself with his gifts at the feet of his girl and won her after all. The moral is plain.

IF the prayer cure should have the tendency to banish old hats—hats with bricks in 'em—what a rush there would be to the fashionable batter. Cure or ne cure, the new firm of Howe Yates is doing a rushing business, and daily are orders received to keep up stock. All the latest styles of the season are found at this establishment, and you pays your money and takes your choice.

J. A. Burgan, who recently purchased the Chad wick Livery Stable, is commanding a fine custom. Having been born and bred among horses, he knows all about them, and will keep none but first-class stock. He has a large and fine lot of buggies and carriages, yet so great is bis custom that he finds it difficult to fill all calls. He makes a specialty of boarding horses by the day, week or month, at reasonable rates, and takes the best care of horses.

Do you want to bay an organ and pay for it on easy terms If so call at W. II. Paige ACo's. and team their terms of renting, with privilege of purchase at any time and allow the money paid for monthly rent to apply on the same. They have some trouble tn getting the Mason Hamlin organs as fast as they can sell them. They have Just received a lot of Cbickerlng Pianos, and fresh supplies of sheet music.

We notice that Bnntin A Armstrong's Immense Front King fountain has resumed operation*. Those who appreci­

All the most popular Mineral Waters,Kiasengen, Geyssr Spring, Saratoga, Betlwasda and Bine Lick, are constantly on draught, and are the genuine water* received direct from the several springs.

IT cannot be said that the agents of ttie Singe* Sewing Machine ass any greater Mwrtl-.ni to sell their machines tM-i do the of other machines. 1! all work 1 JL, \m printers Ink liberally, bring the same forces to bear and yet the sworn returns made to the owners of sewing machine patents, show that the Sanger leads all others, its sates nearly double that of any other. We print the figures in another column, to which we draw attention.

It doeaitt .»« to »»t stockof goods in this vi.v, If you go at it in the right way. First make u| ur inl:," to do~ttr*-n see the jmuier, ami to Uck up every asset*Uon put in tyi*. 8. t\ N *t, the shoe dealer, understands this. As mentioned last weak, he has taken the.intsr-* of the late James John^n, la the who^ols grocery bouse of »er A Johnson, and as soon as h« can dose out his stock of Boots and Shoes will devote his sole attention to the new business. He anrned that there was "no foolishness In ing out at "actual oost," and his sales this week of

$300

to |SOO a day are

evidence that the people take him at his word. Mr. Scott is determined to close his immense stock within a month, whatever sacrifice he may make, and ho will do it. Go early next week, or this evening, if you have time, for there are bargains to be had at K. C. Mooti's^ti Boots and Shoes.

People are beginning to breathe easier, the opinion Is quite prevalent that business will soon revive. StlU it Is not likely that money will be so abundant that it will not, to some extent at least, be neeessary to practice economy. There 1s away In which many dollars can be saved this year. It is by purchasing your boots and shoes, for men and boys, women and misses, girls and babies, at Noyee Andrews, south side of Main, Just east of Fifth street. While othor dealers announce selling at oost and all that sort of thing, the peoplo who know where to get good foot wear at the lowest living prices, go to Andrews.

While other merchants are worrying and fretting over dtfll trade there Is one who seems to be getting along just as usual. It is true he complains of trouble In the way of collections, but his trade Instead of slacking up Is steadily on the increase. That man is T. H. Riddle. This wook ho lias been doing a fine business In tho way of ribbons, corsets, embroidered collars and euffii, of which he has an attractive stock from which to select.

W. II. Fisk is again on the war-path— not after the Spiritualists, but ho is pumping every man who will allow him the privilege. That Is to say he has commenced the summer campaign with his stone Pumps, the best now in use. Hundreds have been put down in this city and the country roundabout. They have been thoroughly tested, and have given the fullest satisfaction. Mr. Fisk can be found at the Buntin House, his headquarters. He has plenty of material on hand, a strong force at Ills command and will fill orders promptly.

Show people always select the most popular place, the place where the most polite attention is given, for tho sale of their tickets. That's why they are almost invariably placed on sale at Button «fc Hamilton's Central Bookstore, whore may be*seen the choicest stock of staple and fancy stationery, books of all kinds, games for outdoors and Indoors, blank books of every description, school books, etc.

For pure liquors of every variety for medicinal and other purposes, the choicest tobaccos and cigars, the opportunity to purchase with an honest dealer, one Whose word can be relied on in these days of adulteration and imposition, there can be no doubt that the place to go Is to James B. Lyne's, opposite the Terre Haute House.

There Is no place like homo, especially when you find the dinner or supper table nicely spread with the good things of life. Therefore, kind reader, if you want to live well and make your home happy, be sure and decide to buy your family groceries of Barbour fe Greenough, southwest corner of Fourth and Cherry streets. They are clever gentlemen, and soli number one goods at the lowest prices.

President Nott, in his wise old age, once took a newly-married couple^aaido, and said: "I want to give you this advice, my children: Don't try to bo happy. Happiness Is a shy nymph and If you chase btfr yon will never catch her. But ust go quietly on and do your duty, and she will come to you." One of the best ways for a married couple to be happy is for them to make up their minds to purchase their groceries at R. W. Rippetoe's "White Front."

Miller A Arleth, at their friend os sooth Fourth street, are ilv for the spring campaign, with an ra«nr -^ock of saddles, hand-made harnesse: rerv description, trunks, valises, whips, biitnketa, rags, and all articles tat their line. They do a very large trade by salting only the best goods, and selling at the lowest passible prices. The manufacture of collars for the trade lit specialty with Miller A Arleth.

Don't try to get something for noth lngv rathfer be willing to render fall val ue for all you get, then, perhaps, you will not get swindled. Buy your goods in the legitimate way, of those you know to be honest,liberal business men such men, for instanoe, as Milllgan A Bond, the popular grocers, at the Marble Front Grocery, opposite the Fourth street school house.

Spring-time Is here—the season for painting and brushing up. For White Load, Colored Paints, Linseed-Oil, Whitewash, Varnish or Paint Brushes, call on Gnllck A Berry, at the "Old Reliable" Drug Store.

Died.
