ON a fomlt«ure of mortgage for money borrowed in its construction, the Opera House was sold, on Thursday, to Geo. P. Bissell & Co,, for $80,584,30. It will probably be redeemed by the stock holders, who lose about one-half of their investment. At any rate the house will .not be taken out of town.

IMPORTANT ARREST. William Rudifer, a noted desperado, burelar and thief, who is wanted in at several pdlnts, was arrested by Sheriff Hull, Deputies Erney and Hamilton, Chief Shewmaker and officers Buckingham and Vanderver, Sunday evening, at a small cabin near Col. Thompson's, some four miles southeast of the city, Rudifer, with a pistol in each hand made a desperate resistance, but was outnumbered and overpowered. With hia pall, Charles EL Dudley, a young man, Rudifer was brought to the city and lodged in jail.

On Wednesday morning Hi rani Rolls, an old man, at whose house Rudifer was stopping, called to see the prisoner, They talked through the iron-grated door, and Sheriff Hail listened at a convenient side-door. He heard enough to learn that somo sort of treasure was buried at the side of some railroad near a telegraph pole. Rolls was followed home doym the E. & C. R. R., it being supposed that the treasure was buried on that road. But the man went directly home. A search of the house foiled to discover any stolen goods, and then Rolls was handcuffed and brought to town. One the way up, under promise of release he promised to show where the treasure was hid, and direct ed the way to a spot on the I. & St. L. R. R,, one mile above the Providence Hospital, where close to a telegraph pole on which two notches had been cut, a little digging discovered wrapped in a chameis skin, fifty-three of the watches taken from H. A. Day, the Greencastle jeweler, when he was knocked down and robbed one evening last week,

Rudifer is old In villainy. He was detected somo years ago in the attemptted robbery of Andrews' shoe store, lias served a term in the penitentiary, and is known throughout the State as a desperate man. Warden Shuler, when here a few days since warned Sheriff Hull whenever he attempted his arrest to go prepared, as the man would shoot when cornered if he could get a chance, The officials engaged in his capture deserve great credit for their, adroitness, prudence and courage. '7 ^1*

There is now hardly a doubt but that Rudifer is the man that shot Jere Pickard it was undoubtedly he that led the midnight attack and robbery of the Dickman family, near Col. Thompson's. It is believed that he was engaged in the robbery of a store at Clinton, and the postofficc at Perrysville. The Sheriff of Hancock county has dispatched for him on account of a larceny, and there was found npon his person a valuable diamond pin stolen at St. Louis, and "several more counties yet to hear from Rudifer, you're elected.

THE District Temperance Mass Meeting held at Centenary Church Thursday morning, afternoon and evening, demonstrated the fact that the temperance people are not at all disheartened at the defeat of the Republican party, but will work with re-doubled zeal to retain the Baxter or abetter law upon the statute book. Col. Thompson presided, and during the convention speeches were made by Mrs. Hodgin, Rev. C. R. Henderson, Senator Ringo, Rev. E. F. Howe, Mrs. Gov. Wallace, Rev. Brakeman, Col, Thompson, Mrs. Walker, Mrs. Finch, S. P. Colvin, Mrs. L. O. Robinson, Col. John W. Ray and others. The address of Mrs. Robinson, in the evening, was one of the most thrilling and interesting that has recently been delivered in this city.

TO TAX-PAYERS. COUNTY TREASURER'S OFFICE, TERRE HAUTE, IND., Oct. 16,1874. Important notice to the tax-payers of Vigo county. Ind.:

The second (or November) installment of taxes must bo paid prior to the fifteenth (15) day of November next, as the books wili be turned over to the auditor after that date: and there will be an additional expense of ten (10) per cent, added thereto.

County orders will be taken for onethird (J4) the amount of each tax-payer's tax.

This course is particularly deemed necessary in order that the treasurer can meet the claims of the state and school funds.

And the treasurer would respectfully suggest to each person interested not to rastpone the payment of tax until the astaay, as the crowd will prevent waiting on each as promptly as could be desired. (As the 15th day of November comes on Sunday, this year, tho 14th (on Saturday) is the last for paying taxes before the penalty is imposed.)

CHAS. II. ItOTTMAN, Treasurer Vigo county.
