PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

A WALKABOUT TOWN

WHAT SOME OF OUR BUSINESS MEN ARE DOING.

If there is any individual in Terre Haute who thinks business is dull, jast let bim take a walk from one end Main street to the other, and down the side streets, and be convinced of his error. We ooneluded to take a walk a aong the patrons of The Mall this week and see how they were getting along, Monday is a generally a dull day, and thinking we would then find them at leisure started out. In nearly every instance where a call was made we were put off with the request to call again when there was not so much of a rush But the rush continued during the week and we hope it will continue without abatement, as it undoubtedly will with those who keep their business properly represented before the public.

J. P. TUTT

Is one of the oldest and most prominent boot and shoe dealers in the city. His long experience in the business has made him so famhiar with it that his judgment in making purchasers is unerring, and when any of our citizens call upon him they may feel sure of getting an article of the very best quality. A short time ago he removed his place of business to No. 507 Main street, between Fifth and Sixth streets, on the south side. His room is fitted up in the very best style and his stock is arranged with that neatness which betokens familiarity with the business. At the present time be wishes particularly to call the attention of intending purchases to the immense stock which he has at present on band and which he is constantly receiving, embracing a new lot of ladies' kid cloth top button shoes, received this week, and ranging from $2.00 upwards. Gentlemen's and boys' hand and machine made shoes from f3.00 up. Also all the leading styles in ladies', misses' and children's shoes. His prices are as low as those of any house in the business, and oar' citizens would do well to give bim a call.

H. F. SCHMIDT A CO.,

watchmakers, jewelers, etc., No. 403 Main street, between Fourth and Fifth streets, take this means of calling the attention of the public to their large stock just laid in. Mr. Schmidt has just returned from the east where he pur chased a large assortment of all the latest styles of jewelry of the finest quality. They have also on hand a full line of gold and silver watches of the best American and Foreign manufacture, together with a large and varied assortment of silverware of the latest patterns. Their collection of spectacles embraces every style and variety. Mr. Schmidt is an experienced hand at the business and keeps constantly at work four com petent men, who are prepared to do all kinda of work entrusted to them in the most satisfactory manner. By paying strict attention to business, dealing fairly and honestly by all who patronize them and charging rtmall profits on their goods, the firm hopes to gain a fair share of the patronage and thereby build up a large trade.

L. A. BURNETT

Judging by his own trade, is convinced that the good time coming has come. At his new location, No. 119 south Fourth street, he has a complete and carefnliy selected stock of goods adapted to the wants of boot and shoe manufacturers, and Is doing a lively and healthy trade. His successful way of doing business, which is almost exclusively for cash, is to sell goods at prices so low that the consumer will find it greatly to his interest to bunt the goods instead of having the goods hunt him, as is the custom with those who send out drum mere. These traveling men cost from |S to flO a day, and of ooArse this must be added to the cost of the goods. Call on Mr. Burnett when wanting anything In his line, and if you have bides, Bbeep skins or raw furs to swll there you will find the highest price in cash.

JACOri WHITE,

the confectioner, 525 Main street, with that enterprise which is characteristic of him, has determined upon opening a first class "Oyster Bay." He is fitting up his room regard lees of expense, and when It ia finished will be by Car the finest in this oity, and will be excelled by none in the oountry. He will keep constantly on hand a large supply of all the leading brands of oysters, which he will serve his customers with in any style desired. He baa removed his wholesale confectionerygdepartment to No. 28 north Sixth street, Dowling Hall, where he baa eight hands manufacturing to fill his orders, and where be will be pleased to have all his old customer*, and new ones, oall and see bim.

STEIN A HECK ELS BERG

have at the present time the largest stock of boot* and shoe* which they have had for five yean, because their increasing trade demands it. Tbey don't make a specialty of any particular line of goods—all are alike of the first quality. Neither do they wish to say they sell cheaper than anybody. They do cot sell at ooet, bat will dispose of their goods at as small a margin as anyb*dy else oan. Tbey respectfully solicit a share of the patronage. Their piaee of bosinesa to No. 421 Main street, between Fourth and Fifth.

CASH GROCERS.

Pierce A «., No. 1,1 and IB north Faanft street, although new in the trade hav$ already built op an immense baslnml Tim cash -ism is as and people v"* bay -re goods vsu in ob», Uiiittd tU ^beape^i.

I. K. CLATPELXER,

The boot and shoe dealer, No. 511 Main, between Fifth and Sixth streets, has at present on hand a very large stock of ladies, misses, and children's goods, ail of which are the finest sewed work in the market. They are all the celebrated "Philadelphia" and "Rochester" goods. He has found these goods to give sach

general satisfaction that be ia making specialty of them. The prices will be found suitable to the times.

Y. G. DICKHOUT.

Here is a bit of information for people in surrounding towns {the people home know it). Terre Haute has one of the finest trunk factories in the western country. When you want a trunk valise, don't buy one of the flimsy no account things sold in stores, but come in and get something first class and cus torn made at V. G. Dickhout's factory Main street, between Sixth and Sev enth.

H. S. RICHARDSON A CO.

Have just now a beautiful line of deco rated goods, in Dinner, Tea, and Toil ette Ware, all to match. The beauty of it is, tbey cost but a trifle more than plain white goods. This style of ware is fast gaining popularity, and is all the rage in Eastern cities. Call early, while the assortment is complete, at H. S Richardson ft Co's, 307 Main, between Third and Fourth streets.

JOHN H. SYKES.

There is perhaps no hat dealer in the Wabash Valley so well known as J. Sykes. He has been doing business in the same house for years, and has a host of customers, who, watching the thing year after year, know that he is always up with the styles, 8911s the best quality of bats, and charges reasonable prices. They are fully justified in believing Syke's Hat Store one of the best places in tbe city to trade.

E. W. JOHNSON.

At the present time the public is rather backward in extending its patronage to any artiole unless it be celebrated, and that is what makes Ed Johnson sell so many of the celebrated "Arrow Brand" of oysters, packed by the old and justly celebrated firm of E. B. Mailory A Co., Baltimore. These oysters are equfcl, if not superior, to any in the market. Each purchaser is given a book containing receipts for cooking oysters in evory style. Call at 613 Main street and try a can.

JOHN F. ROEDEL

Wishes to call the attention of Farmers and all in need of groceries, to his large stock, embracing Previsions, Wines, Liquors, Glassware, Wooden and Willow ware, and Table and Pocket Cutlery. He sells at lowest cash prices, and pays the highest prices for country produce. A large Feed and Wagon Yard free to all customers. Corner of First and Ohio streets.

NEWJHART A GREINER. This firm is doing business at the old stand of Philip Newhart, on Second street, between Main and Ohio. They manufacture a first class article of hominy and grits. They desire to'rall the attention of the public particularly to their grits. For table use it is fast taking the place of rice, and as a breakfast dish it has no superior. To convince yourself of this fact give it a trial.

E. D. HARVEY,

Nos. 310 and 321 Main street, has the largest, best and finest stock of furniture in the city. He has any articl^you want in his line. He defies competition, and will dnplioate the lowest prices with a better quality of goods. If you don't believe it, go and be convinced.

HARNESS MAKERS.

We desire to oall tbe attention of harness makers in this and adjoining counties to tbe fact that Peter Miller, on south Fourth street, is manufacturing largely for tbe trade and at very low pricee a superior Horse Collar—far better than those of eastern manufacture. He also has for the trade a large stock of Lap Robes and Blankets.

M. BALUE, at tbe Opera House bat store,405 Main atreet, opposite the Opera House, has Just received an immense stock of hats and caps, furs, etc., all of tbe latest styles, which will be sold very low for cash. Mr. Baiue will always be found behind the oounter, and will offer bargains In bats and caps heretofore unknown In Terre Haute. Try the Opera House bat store for head gear.

GRIFFITH BROS., dealers in boots and shoes, 206 Main street, opposite public square, three doors east of Second, Terre Haute, Ind., invite Sthelr country cousins and all tbe balanoe of mankind to inspect tbelr large stock of boots snd shoes, which are bought for cash and will be sold for csah oheaper than ever before offered in Terre Haute.

They also sell the famous Cowles, Curtis A Co, and the Merriam Shoes wbich are fine fitting and splendid wearing shoes. On the cheaper grades of goods they defy com petition.
