City and Vicinity.

THE news from Turkey is father sad. Many people had too much of it Thursday.

THB Hayes Escort cleared about one hundred dollars by their ball, and had bushels and buabelsof fun.'

THB newly elected Board of County Commissioners will bold their first regular session beginning next Monday.

TUB Masonic Mutual Benefit Society this week |ald a "benefit" of $4,137.90 to the family of the late Louis Seeburger.

IT la not uncommon to hear Augustin Daily's play of Pique spoken of as "Pike," but it has been reserved for a Joarnal reporter to hear it called "Pake," whiob he clatma to have done oneevenlug this week.

TBBoponing or the pork-padklng and ice-packing seasons will give employment to a large number of men who now have nothing to do. The opening of theee branches of business is looked forward to with much interest.

Thkrx has been a general change of the time of arrivals and departures of trains on the railroads oentering here, and porsons who travel will do well to oensult a reliable "time table" before starting on a journey, or thoy may "get left."

TUB morning train on the K, A C. railroad leaves here at

7:20

a. m. now,

instead of 8:35, aa formerly. The Express will leavfl at 2:53 p. m., If the Indianapolis train is en time, andiftho •aid train la not more than one hour behind time, will wait for it.

IT was discovered at the St, Clair House Sunday morning that burglars bad stolen all the table cutlery. The proprietor bad to go out and buy a stock before his guests eould be given their Weak tout*. It was all plated and waa marked with the name of the hotel.

ONB by one the old residents take their departure. Mra. Nancy Johnston, relict of the late John Johnston, of Prairie Creek township, died at the residence of her son, Joseph Johnston, In Prairie (-reek township, on the evening of tho 26th Inst., at the ripe age of seventy year*. .'

THK Iron Mouldera and the Hibernl*n* gave their regular annual balls this week, on Wednesday evening, and both ^were as well attended and aueoeeaful generally aa ©ou.d have Men desired treasonably. The first named waa in the Oty Hall and the oU*e» at Dowling

WK nuver remember hearing eo many complaints of the depredation1*ol wood and ooal thieves as have come to light this season. There's many an old shooting iron being oiled np, and from aundry hints dropped we are led to fear that somebody will be slsughtered before the cold weather la over.

OJ» Tuesday evening, at the reel

dene*

of t*e bride's parents, in this city, Dr. C. E. Kuster, the well known physician, was married to Miss Emma F. Eshman, daughter of Mr. Gerhard Ivihmau. The happy couple left for a fchort wedding trip West.

THB work of regrading and gravelling a number of worn out streets about the city is being pushed vigorously. So far as we know, the improvements are all timely and were much needed. The only difficulty seems tc be that paying for them "pushes" the property owners, in sotno eases, most dreadfully. vf

ON Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock, Mr. Chris. Meyer, aged 00 years, died at hi* residence, two miles south of the city. His funeral will take place tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon from the German Lutheran church on south Fourth street. Mr. Meyer was well known as a worthy and useful citizen and his death will be mourned by a large circle of friends.

IT is pretty well settle* now that the extension of the sewer to Poplar street, a distance of 2,700 feet, will bo made. A petition to that eflect has been signed by most of the heaviest taxpayers in tho city. The proposed work is estimated to cost about 910,000, and bidding for the contract will probably be restricted to parties living in the city. For the money, seven percent bonds will be issued.

ATTENTION is called to the advertisement of Kissner's Palace of MUMIC, in this issue. Mr.

has held a prominent

position as tho leading Music Dealer in this city for nearly twenty years. In his elegant spacious establisnment of two floors, may be found at all times tho largest assort oaent of Pianos, Organs and all kinds of other Musical Instruments kept in this oity while as a practical man and a maker, also skillful tuner as well as a Musician of a knowledged ability, Mr. K. stands prominently at the head of the music trade here.

THE two Representatives from this county will have a number of appointments to make as soon as the Legislature meets. These appointments will consist principally of clerkships to committeea. There will be very little to do and the pay will be six dollars a day. It is desirable tbat applications sbonld be made for these places at once. There are several of them, and thus far but one man has applied. They are very respectable positions, and it is bard to understand why there should be such backwardness about taking them. Is it possible tbat nobody wants to spend the winter in Indianapolis? It would seem so. However, w« hope tbat our Demo cratlc readers will think of the matter and send in their names to Judge Carlton at an early day.

THE Opera House in this city is, of oourse, a creditable structure. We all feel proud of it. We show it to strangers and listen with much satisfaction to their complimentary remarks about It. But, there are other fine opera houses in the country beside ours some of which we are obliged to cenfees cost more monoy and are perhaps a trifle larger. But there Is one thing connected with our Opera House which we feel and k'now to be unapproachable ene thing, which every citizen aa be contemplates It with swelling heart and throbbing brain, feels for a cortainty is uniqne. We refer to Its magnifioent orchestra. Much another doee not probably exist In the world. Such another couldn't exist. It wouldn't be permitted te exist a single night. In any place but Term Haute an ontraged and indignant public weuld rise in their wrath and destroy It if took millions of pounds of dynamite to aocompliah the improve mont.

TnB following are rules ha. 16 and 45 for the government of employees of the E. 4 O.

ail road. They are of general

interest, because people who travel always feel a curiosity to know the meaning of the various signals, and few understand much about them. 15, Engineers most sound the whistle ten seconds when approaching the oity limit* of Evansville, Vlncennes and Tferre Haute. Within the limits of these cities, the use of the whistle Is prohibited, except as an alarm. Sound for other Rtatlons five seconds, and give the signal, two abort and one long blast when approaching highway crossings, where the ighway is not in full view of the engineer, one hundred yards in each direction. The bell must be rung at all mad crossings, commencing two hundred yards from the crossing and continuing until passed. Also, while passing through towns and approaching meeting points. 42. Hignala by the Whistle.—One short blast, to put on brakes. Two, to leto(Tbrakea. Thtee,to backuu. Four to call in Switch or Flagman. Five, to observe signals carried bv engine. A succession in short rapid blam is the alarm for stock, teams or persona on track One long blast la Ute signal tbat the train Is approaching station. Two short and one long blasts, that it is approaching dsngeroos highway crossing.

MBMHM. Lewis Whitehead A. Co., of Indianapolis, have just erected a fifteen handrea dollar monument In oar cemetery, to the memory of James B. Naykr, son of Wilson Nay for, ®W|.. that is massive In lta simple grandeur. It Is of grey granite, fifteen feet high and four ands half feel square, and ooe of Use finest monuments In toe sat a credit alike to the firm that made Hand the geoernts Impulses of a loving Other, who would thus enmswmoraleUw virtoeeof a noble eon.—{Express.

We have seen the monument sad can heartily endorse the above.

AMUSEMENTS:

THB old Stadt Theater is to be opened to night by a variety company, B. W. Marshall, proprietor. This announcement, we fancy, will not give unalloyed pleasure to all our readers. The old Stadt's past reputation is not savory, and even the illastrioua name of B. W. Marshall, Manager, will hardly, at onoe, restore perfect confidence in its purity as a temple of Thespis and a plaoe to lncnl cate leesons of wisdom and virtue in the youthful hreaat. The old Stadt building waa onoe a Presbyterian church, but it's not likely the "sorvices" there this winter will be conducted in exactly that form.

The amusements of next week will commence on Monday evening with Mr. C. S. Anderson's presentation of Rip Van Winkle. Mr. A. is peculiarly adapted to this character, and we confidently expect a very satisfactory rendition of the same. He will be supported by our best provisional and amateur talent.

On Tuesday »vening we are to have what always fills a Terre Haute audience with joy—a minstrel company—and one of the very best, too—Emerson's California Minstrels. This we find in the St. Paul Pioneer Press of last week:

The Opera House was filled with a very fashionable audience last night, and appreciative to the fullest extent. As was promised the entire Chicago pany did appear, headed by Mr. Billv Emerson, justly acknowledged the best comedian on the minstrel stage. His songs, acts and sayings were in every feature a decided hit and suocess, the audience never tiring of applauding his every tune. Mr. Emerson responded to numerous encores. Mr. Ben. Cotton, great Chicago favorite, is the only

grson

equal to occupy the end with Mr. merson, and should be a fixture with the California party. The orchestra, under the direction of Mr. James Morrison, Is very large in numbers and very accomplished in their respective arts. The vocal department has never been equaled in any entertainment of minstrelsv

Mr. *J. G. Russell's "Old Uncle Ned" displayed a cultured baritone voice, while Beaumont Read has an elegant voice and was loudly applauded. Macken and Wilson, in their specialties, were excellent, and in all the entertainment was free from all coarse or un pleasant items. »-iSa ti* «f iJ-,

On Wednesday evening, the Strakoach Italian Opera Company will perform Verdi's favorite opera "II Trevatore," in which will appear suoh eminent vocal artists as Miss Isabella McCulloch, Senorita Martinez, Signor Brignoli, Miss Annandale, Mr. G. F. Hall, Nicola Barili, and along list of names familiar to the operatic stage, together with grand chorss and orchestra. The sale of seats will coaamenoe on Monday morning, at the Central Bookstore. The prices have been fixed at very reasonable figures— —91.50 for reserved seats admission fl.00, and gallery 50 cents. Saya the Cincinnati Enquirer:

Trovatore. despite the criticism of tho German school of music, is a test of pewer, a proof of ability. To fill the roles of "Leonora" and "Azucena" exacts no common capacity, no mere popular talent. "Leonora" fast night was fully equa1 to every demand that oould possibly have been made. Miss McCollough wan artiat, In her conception of the part all is great, powerful and passionate, and in the full force of her voice there is now and again a sublimity of intonation which few other artists have been able to infuse into the character of the Italian heroine. "Leonora" is too well known to require any analysis at our hands, and we can only express our sense of Miss McCoilougb's merits by saying that in voice and gest ure she la nearly equal to the heroine for whom Verdi first designed the work tbat must be Immortal. In form and expression, in the true sense of the term, she is the best "Leonora" we have seen for many a year.

Miss Annandale gave anew interpretation to the "Gypsy Queen." In Ijer bands she was not simply the woman of a strange race, alien to modern civilization, sobbing her life away in and among the cities and villages of the life of modern times: ahe was the pure "Gypsy Queen of Epping Forest" par example, or of tho novel of the wud glades, In which Shakespear'a "Roealina" played, and with which Bulwer Lytton's post Caston hovels has made us so fkmiilar. Miss McCollough is at onoe a neat vo oalist and a great actress, and Miss Annandale treads worthily in her footsteps. Signor Briguoli was the tenor. He was

Maarico, a role In which he has been often heard in Cincinnati. His sweet voice, his clear aocentnation we have ever admired, but ne^er till now. never UU last night, in Trovatore, did be even liegin to prove in Cincinnati, at least, his real worth at once aa an actor and a vocalist, ilia method—that method which Mario himself declared to be only second te hia own—is sa pronounced aa ever. Hia action and his deference to and desire to please his sndience is a hundred-fold greater than It ever waa before, and, in fact, in both voice and action he looks but a little over thirty years Instead of a few veara over forty. To analyse the mode of Trovatore would now be abeord. To praise it would, to all lovers of melody, be but a work of supererogation. The theater last night waa fall and fisshlonabie, and we hobe to see an equally good bouse to-night in MariAa.—[Cincinnati Enquirer. 7~*AMMRR AOAII«-«
