TERRU HAUTE SATURDAY -HiV-hiNPTQ MAIL.

Gssette: Mr. Frank Sibley, a very worthy young gentleman, who tor several years past has been employed at Keyes A Sykes', as a mechanic, and worked up from the lowest rank of work there, waa yesterday promoted to tbe offloe, where he takes the books as ahipping clerk and assistant bookkeeper. That is the reward of honest industry, and the right way to get ahead. It is a promotion gratifying to alibis friends.

L. A. Burnett, we are pleased to learn, baa effected a satisfactory settlement with bis creditors, been released from tbe proceedings in bankruptcy, and is now in full ohsrge of his store. Such wss the confidence of his creditors that he has really been in charge all the time, although by form of law an assignee was put here. And such was his character for commercial honor that he was able to go into the bank and get tbe money with which to pay the sums of indebtedness agreed npon. Such a character is better than great richea.

Tbe Carlisle Democrat: Occasionally we are favored with a copy of the Daily Republican, Terre Haute'a best evening paper, and we are always duly impressed with tb* number and excellence of its locals. Mr. Lawrence Hudson, who superintends tbe city department, is one of the best localizers in the State and he has the kqack of Investing the most commonplace subjects with .a degree of interest scarcely paralleled by any other itemizer known to us.

When Terre Haute was a village there was but one kind of a store and that store kept everything. It is very different now. Boots and shoes, hats and caps, queensware, dry goods, notions, groceries,—each have their separate place. So also Teas, Coffees, Spices and Syrups, and the place to get these four last named articles is at J. M. Riflner Son's China Tea Store, where a specialty is made of this class of goods, guaranteed pure and sold at low figures.

"I AM THE

1BOSS.'"

Thus saith "Boss Joe" Nirdlinger, who resumed business this week at bis old and well known quarters, where he shows his patrons as pretty a stock of clothing—all fresh and new—as was ever opened in this city. There are no old goods, and as the entire stock was bought at the extraordinarily low prices now ruling in the eastern markets, of course he is able to give some astonish ing bargains and still make a living profit. For instance, he gives ten pair of British half-hose for

fl,

a tip top

undershirt for 22 cents, a tip top Warnsutta shirt for 57 cents, 4-ply linen collars for 10 cents, 4-ply linen cufh for 25 cents. In his merohant tailoring department—a new feature—he announces prices about one-third less thsn others charge. There is a magnetism abont "Boss Joe"—he is so olever and accomodating, apparently so desirous that every patron shall be suited and have tbe full worth of his money—that on the first announcement of his reopening trade began flowing is. He baa had an especially big run in school suits, in which line he challenges competition in goods snd prices. Dnrlng-the-interval bis store has been handsomely decorated, and tbe Interior is bright, handsome and attractive. Immense signs on the outside tell the people whereto find the man who boldly exclaims, "I am the Boss

ALL THOSE

Who suffer from any malady that has been given up as hopeless by other physicians, Dr. Von Moscbzisker says to them that they would do well to give his medical experience a trial before they resign themselves to suffering. He can without egotism claim that he is better prepared and has treated successfully a larger number of tberdlsesses he advertises to trest than any other physician or specialist in the country. At his rooms (Terra Haute House) may be examined letters from the most distinguished men in the country, thsnking him for tbe medioal services be hss rendered, whilst other physicians of reputation have failed to do so. What he has accomplished in Terre Haute is now well known and needs no further commentary.
