a good enongh botcher, but )p poor man. Adam kwrned the butcher baslneaa himself, aajd when quite young man he parked up hi^t butcher's knUb and cleaver, and started west! Ilia money only lasted to Pittslrarg, so he vMted the variola sftamboats bound below to ascertain which one would conriderllaeonpMy tuffideat compensation for his passage to Cksdnaatt. He found a captain who made a contract of thai kind, merely stipaiating that he afaouid work fifteen or twenty hours each day as a deck hand, to exdte appetite and promote digestion. While sistlng in loading the boat, he showed so modi talent in handling boxea, and exhibited such umuietaksUle genius in rolling bales, that one of the passenger* exclaimed, "That boy will rnak# hia mark," and called the lad aside. Placing his band upon the boy's shoulder, he advised him to make honesty his guiding star, and frugality his motto through 1Mb. "That man,** says Adam's biographer, "was America's greatest statesman, Henry (lay I"

Clay aeettts to have been standing around a good deal 1«» those daya, just to single ont boya who would make their mark in the world, for we have heard and read of at least a dosen similar Instances. But Forepaugh has made his mark, with every one of his four paws. Adam tarried in QndnjaaU a abort time, and then he went to Louiavilla, which was one of the weakest acta of his life. Had he remained in Cincinnati he might have been butchering yet. He got into the busiueaf of buying and selling cattle, and accumulated some man ey, with which he bought a menagerie, being led to this ad by observing how peculiarly fitted his name was to the business—4 Paws. He made no farther pause until he owned one of the biggest shows traveling, and his success shows how a butcher, if he be nothing more than a "candy butcher/* may, by heed ing the words of advice addressed to him by any stray statesman he chances to encounter, and sticking closely to the center pole, amass wealth and aurronnd himself with some of the most intelligent and cultivated wild animals ever presented to the publio under sixteen, mammoth tents.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING AtAUi.

Tlw extend ve and handsome establishment of Mr. J. At Feota, seedsman, In hia new quarters, at 102 Xatn street, deserves more than a passing notice. It is the fesalt of "patient aontiunaaaoe In well doing," a steady dRbrt to build up a seed trade on the right basis by the right mau. Peisaaa who have pot yd visited this bouse will he pleased to see theelegant room now oeea^ed so con venisntly fitted up and 'flUod, wiU»4N| many oaefttl and beauttfttl gooda. Hers are seeds of pure quality for the fiunner, and an Immense variety, in thdr season, of vegetable soeds for the gardener, and flower seed*and bulbs dtawtlrom Europe, of the mod beautiftal kinds grown. Here are growing Plants, Flower Stands and Brackets, Rutie Baskds and Stands, Wire goods, Cages of every deaeriptlon,Aquariums, Flower pota,Vaaea, do, embracing a stockjmrt of which are kept by no other house in the dty, and ail of wldch In every department excel, in variety of styles, avery rival. Here are Canaries from the Harts mountains over the sea, Parrota from the tropic* and Mocking Birds, the king of songsters, from our own woods, tiold-flah from the water, flowers from the earth birds from the air, and rare artist of workmanship from the hand on man. It la a place worthy a visit from all who wish to beautify their homes.

It would be an omission to refrain from noticing the elegant plate glass window just pat lit and the fountain babbling np through stones, mosses and foras. There la no house in the city presenting so attractive and interesting a stock, and it can truthfully be said that it la not only thh|, but it the only complete SeedStortia the State of Indiana.

His business, now extending over a large region, merits the attention of every person who reads this, In whatever county or State he may be. To such it may be said that Mr. Foote has been a dtisen of this county far over twenty years, and his reputation as a badness man of integrity is the very best. Suecess to him.

A Terrible Accident

occurred last

Monday In the yard of the C. & T. H. R, R., by which Tilghman Stewart, an ex cellont and much esteemed young man lost his life. The train men were mak ing a "running switch"—that is throwing the ears upon aside track while the engine went ahead. Young Stewart drew the bolt, and as the cars separated foil to the ground, and a heavy loaded car passed over both legs, injuring him so badly that he never rallied, and death came in five hours. It is a strange coincidence that his brother was killed near Indianapolis, one year ago, in the same way. The widowed mother, the relatives and the young lady whom he was soon to wed, nave the heartfelt sympathy of a large drcie of friends.

homfEROTAL EDUCATION. What is more essential and needful to the young man or woman than a good commercial education—a knowledge of accounts In keeping them a" beautiful business handwriting, and a thorough knowledge of mathematics—these all can be obtained by attending^ the Terre Haute Commercial College and Tele graphic Institute. 4
