Perry Tuttle is getting ready for his annual spring^ Ashing at Put-in-Bay. The season will open there this season much earlier than usual. "Boss Joe" will open his clothing house next Monday, having effected a settlement wish his creditors by paying thirty-five cents on the dollar.
The many admirers of Luther Benson in this vicinity will be surprised and pained to read of his recent "rampage," publication of which is made on the sixth page of this issue.
Jacob/W. Miller has been elected Superintendent of the Terre Haute Cement Pipe and Sione Company, and will hereafter have charge of the contrasts and business of the company.
Mrs. H. D. Scott and Fred Scott started Tuesday afternoon to go by way of Lagannpert and Fort Wayne to Plainwell, Michigan, where they will remain two or three weeks, and where Fred may be all.summer, ...Sot the. b9n?Jt of his health. I
Hon. Ben F. Havens won't run for Congress. His name having been mentioned, he cards the public and says, ..." "that while it would be more than gratifying to uie to be the nominee of tbe grand old Democrats party, yet under uo circumstances can I be a candidate."
The time is coming when it is too warm to sleep three in a bed, so go to Foster A Son's, on orth Fourth street, and be astonished at the low prices tbey "are selling bedsteadand all kinds pt furniture.
The fresh roasted flees at J. M. Hi finer A Son's, 318 Main street, sell at these low prices: Mocha, 4D cents a -pound Old Gov't Java, 35c Maraca
Bo and Laguayra, 30c Fancy Rio, 28s Good lUo, 25c Ground, 20 cents. Spring Hats are now ripe and ready to be picked from the splendid stock on exhibition at S. Loeb A Co.'s, sign of.tbe Big Black Bear, corner of Main and -Fifth streets. In hats, caps and men's furnishing goods they are receiving daily additions, and show an immense variety at low priors. $
People, you know, are inquisitive, and now they want to know how it is possible for Peter Miller to manufacture such elegant harm ss at such low prices. Certain it is that in all articles of horse gear Ills manufacture gives the fullest satisfaction in regard to wear, and none can tiell lowor than he does. v- ..
There are several reasons' why F. 6. Froeb glvas satisfaction to his patrons. *He personally superintends the manufacture of his harness and saddles, soleots the best stook, and sells at prices that barely afford him a liviug profit. You know the place, Main street, north of the public square.
The rrason why J. P. Brenuan, tbe merchant tailor, has all the work he can well handle is because of his well selected stook of piece goods, and his low prices. lie ha* low rent, has two sons to work tor him, does bis own cutting, and pays cash for his sroods. Such a combination of circumstances gives him a great advantage.
At this season of the year the appetite yearns for a change of food, and tbe en* terprlsing grocerymen are prompt to •apply thy demand. Wright A King on the corner of Main and .Seventh streets have to-day a large and fresh lot of dressed poultry, lettuce, radishes, spinach, kale, and all the seasonable vegetables, and as usual have a full and complete stock of fresh groceries. Tbey aim to keep everything In the market that may be wanted to aupply the table, and their sources of aupply are so well arranged that they succeed most admirably.
W. Paige A Co. have something new. It ia an upright piano of the Rogers make. The piano has an important advantage which may be mentioned. The improvement is designed to avoid the necessity of tuning. The piano ia constructed with a, solid iron frame and without a wooden pin board which method has been patented by the company. The strings have no contact with wood which is oonUnually swelling and shrinking, causing the piano to get out of tune. The strings In the piano are all fastened to a aolld Iron bar which contracts and expands all over alike. When the strings are once perfectly tight tbey cannot become loose. The piano Is worth inspection as it Is vary cheap and and an excellent instrument. W. HL Paige A Oo. ars sole agents.

Robert M. Sterrett has musical genius deserving of tbe utmost cultivation. He is now at work upon an opera, said to be ef rare merit. He, proposes-to show it to our people at tbe Opera House, with home talent, some time this season.
J. P. Moore, of Shryer Brothers, returned last night from Sherman, Texas, where he has been on a visit to his wife, who has spent tbe winter south for her health. To strike this town this cold, rainy morning presented a strong contrast to the where he left all vegetation in full bloom.

The Attention of Hardware and Grocerymen, Carpenters, Joiners, Bridge Builders, Millars,
And all others who use Nails Is called to the'
COYNE PATENT AUTOteATICNAILPICKBR I
.Which is now in successful operation in tbe
Terre Haute Iron and Nail Works, f"
Two mills in Pittsburg, one in Mahoning Valley and oura are the only nail works west of the Allegheny Mountains that have attached thia patent nail pioker to their nail tnachines. This picker separates all tbe dust, scale, slivers, headless and imperfect nails from the perfect, thereby insuring from three*to five pounds more of perfect nails to tbe keg than nails put up by tbe old process, which mixes all the dust, slivers, scale, and. imperfect with the perfect nails. Therefore the advantage of getting the cleanly picked nails over thosn not so seleoted will be readily seen. Our RED LABEL is pasted on every picked keg of nails. Therefore, let every one be sure to call tor the
Terre Haute Red Labeled Selected Nails.
We are also scouring our three-penny fine nails, which will especially Interest" plasterers. Come and see bow perfectly this little Coyne Picker does its work.
