DEATHS.

John G. Minnick, for forty-five years an esteemed resident of this city, died at the residence of his daughter, Mary 8arrell, on Monday morning, of general debility. He was in his 75th year.

Oliver Bartlett, after a long struggle with disease, died at one o'clock Wednesday morning, at his residence on north Fifth street. He was in his 44th year, and had been a resident of this city for about a quarter of a century. For nearly twenty years he was actively engaged in the book trade In thia city. Failing health brought business troubles, and his last years were yean not at all fitted to a sick man. He leaves a wife and three children who mourn the loss of a kind, loving husband and an indulgent father.

Richard C. Carlton, son of Judge A. B.(Carlton, died at his father's residence on Poplar street Wednesday night about twelve o'clock. He was a young man of much promise, and greatly beloved by his young associates, and in fact by all with whom he came in contact, but that fell disease consumption claimed him as an early victim, he being only twenty-two years of age. He had few superiors in the west as a stenographer, and was employed as clerk of Mr. Voorhees exodus committee. He return ed home from Washington with his father week before last, his strength having so failed that he could not discharge bis duties. Poor "Dick I" It is sad to record the death of one so young, so gentle, so amiable, so studious and attentive to business, and with such a bright future. His oharacter in every respect was above reproach, and his daily life showed that he regarded kindness and gratitude as the sweetest flowers tbat ever bloomed In the human heart. A short time before his death he Baid to an intimate ycung friend. "If I was a corner loafer I wouldn't care to die if I didn't have any ambition I wouldn't care, but here are loafers about town who grow strong, while I have got to die. I don't think it Is right." It was hard for him to leave father, mother and sister and while the rude sea tosses human hopes near the barren shores of darkness, that father can never forget bis lost idol that sister can never lose the image of her heart's purest love, and that mother, while the shadows of years are growing darker and longer, as they span the abyss of two eternities, will have the tears of purest and holiest memories dropping from the most hallowed chambers of her soul. And of the silent one, just as the sunrise gleamed in the east of life's morning, he laid down, and the young bright rays kissed him into sweeter death.

THE DIVORCE MILL.

The present term of the Circuit Court, which convened on Monday, has a considerable griat. to grind In the way of divorces.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL.

THE DRUNKARD.

SOMFI OF HIS CHARACTERISTICS.

THE "DRUNKS AND DISORDERLIES."

Of the eaaes daily tried in the Mayors Court, a very large proportion are for aimple drunkenness. "Drunk" and "drunk and disorderly" cover a large majority of the cases on Mayor Havens' docket. These form the foundation for about all the other sins and crimes that come before the oourta. This undergrowth of folly, dissipation and wickedness, the result of intemperance, ripens into most of the sin and degradation we are acquainted with. At the very bottom of all the "drunks" tbat appear before His Honor, is a crowd of

SYSTEMATIC BUMMERS, SI

as they are familiarly termed, who seldom have a dime of their own, but who hang about the lowest slums of the city, waiting for somebody to come in and treat. They have not the nerve to steal, and being too lazy to work, lounge about and take their chances for a drunk. These bummers are regular habitues of the Mayor's Court, though by no means all of them are paraded there. For most of them are cautious enough to slip into some sly corner and sleep off their potations. Next comes a class of

IMFBOVIDKNT AND FESTIVE PEOPLE, many of whom are, unfortunately, heads of families. B6ing, for the most part, men who are employed by the week, receiving their wages on Saturday night, they monopolize a good portion of dooket on Monday morning. It is often necessary on this account to bold a Sunday morning session of the Court. Not a few of this class are young and unmarried men who earn good wages in some mechanical, industrial or mercantile employment, but who care very little for money, have but little self-respect, and having acquired the habit of getting drunk every pay day, it is hard for them to avoid it.

Another set of men who are before the court for common drunkenness often, live in the surrounding country towns. Their facilities for getting drunk are not as good as they might be, and when they come to the oity they are not slow to avail themselves of "the freedom of the city." Still another class of some magnitude ia the one in which the

OUT-AND-OUT COUNTRYMAN

figures conjpicuously. The men In this class are very smart in their own estimation, and, coming to the oity to do business or see the sights, put up at some well known hotel, or, getting their meals at a lunch room, pass the night at some bagnio kept "on the European plan." Generally, however, they are

stautly on the watch for these "flats," and alter the lancet of good fellowship has done its work, they "take something," and then, as the drunk begins to come-on, they either get drugged or are piloted off to some shake down crib of prostitution, then robbed and kicked into the street, where they are picked up by the night police and put where they will keep for the Mayor's matinee in the morning. Often they have to send to their friends in the "rural districts" for money, before they can get home.

There is still another class, who may fairly be regarded as THE MOST UNFORTUNATE of all. They are mostly men who occupy good positions in sooiety, and only now and then get lntoxioated, through the agency of their friends, who are many. When tempted they resort to every expedient in their power, and flounder about on the surface of some exouse, generally a thin and flimBy one, and not have the moral courage to refuse, after tasting one drink, the next and still another are sure to follow, so that before they have gone the rounds with their friends they have something of a load to carry home, provided they are not ashamed to go home.

But the most disgusting of all is the so-called v, AMATEUR DRUNKARD tfie natty little anob who, when Intoxicated, has a particular pride in letting everybody know it. Always more talkative than a street corner politician, they never Ml to make themselves oonspicuous and most supremely ridiculous at the saloon, in the hotel, on the street, and anywhere they can And a chanse to "show off." They never earn a dollar by honest toil, but always make a big display of their money, watches and jewels, and are not at all backward in the use of slang expressions and ungentlemanly remarks in the presence of ladies.

There is one more class that it ia almost too wicked to mention even, for no one should be so cruel as to say anything to .injure their feelings or wound their pride. In this city, as elsewhere, there are many good people who have spoils of getting intoxicated. With them it is a sort of disease, which comes on periodically, when they can no more help getting tipsy than a regular ague patient cut stave of the "shakes." Both sexes are represented in this class, and the fearful struggles and trials they endure cannot be told. They, and they only, know of them. But it is more than probable that many of these people inherit their disease just as that terrible malady, the consumption, is transmitted from parent to child, and from one generation to another. At all events, it seems to arise from some cause entirely beyond their control, and for this, If for no other reason, they are entitled to every good man's sympathy.

sometimes happens that one of these

unfortunates falls into the hands of an offioer, who, all ignorant of the why and wherefore of his situation, and perhaps too impatient to inquire, books him for commitment, and then he goes as the rest have.

Thia hasty classification would be very incomplete were no mention made of that class which embraces the

TOUNO QIRL8 AND WOMEN

who have selected the apparently attractive, but certainly shortest pathway to perdition. The one big sin they start out with so rapidly absorbs ail other of a like character, that they frequently come and go through the orbit of the simple and common drunkard like a rocket. Their days of happiness being over, dissipation la crowded into their little round of so-called enjoyments, not aa a substitute for joys departed, but as a sort of grave for the burial of remorse and the thousand and one trials and tribulations that come up like weeds in their pathway. First establishing themselves in the gay parlor of the giddy cyprian, where the wine bottle is the first snd last introduction of the evening, an appetite is quickly created for something stronger. After a time it is found tbat wine is not potent enough, aod "mixed drinkB" are freely indulged in. The result is, they fall into the hands of a policeman, and become frequent visitors to the police court.

These are the classes which go to make up the "drunks" and the "drunk and disorderlies" of the Mayor's Court and a sad pioture it certainly makes/.

THE Horticultural Sooiety held its monthly feast, on Thursday, at the residence of Dr. Pence. The gathering was one of the largest the society has ever held—about seventy-five members and twenty-five invited guests sitting down to the four well filled tables prepared by Mrs. Pence. The leading topic for discussion was "Pears." The report in the Express leads an outsider to infer that the Horticulturalists are more familiar with "two pairs" in Poker according to Hoyle, than pears grown from the soil. However, "A Member," in a communication to the same paper this morning, repels the imputation as a vile slander. It was resolved that the city ought to purchase a park at the earliest possible moment, and this was made the subject for discussion at the next meeting, which will be held at the residenoe of T. W. Harper.

WE direct attention to the card of Mr. L„ Kissfler in regard to tuning and repairing pianos and organs. Mr. Kissner prid his son Albert have established an enviable reputation in this line. A thorough .and intimate knowledge of the construction of these instruments, coupled with musical accomplishments of no mean order, gives them advantagegover those not so favored, aj^ their wojik^*«?,er fails to give aatisfactions wittflisr it be Ott a vate residence, on a church organ, or putting in}une an instrument for that most exacting of all other classes of people, an opera troupe. t.

NEXT Thursday evening, Centenary Sunday School will give an entertainment in the way of a musical sooial. The programme will comprise several solos, duets, a song by the Davis family, a piano solo, a recitation by Prof. Car hart, a French harp solo with guitar aocompaniement and two or three selec tions by the entire McKeen Cadets Band. One of these selections will be The Chimes of Normandy. The sohool is in a very flourishing oondition, with an average attendance of five hundred. It is their intention to make this most delightful oooaslon of the winter. Admission 25 cents ohildren 10 cents.

W. A. RYAN A Co., have commenced an auction sale of dry goods at No. 606 Main street, which is attracting immense crowds morning, afternoon ande^enii An advertisement in another column gives full particulars. The stock is a large one, and the goods seem to bo first class. The sale will continue from day to day until the Btock is disposed oi. The early bird catches the worm, and those who attend the first aales will get the best baagains.

A BABB treat will be the lecture by Prof. Proctor, the eminent English astronomer, at Dowllng Hall this evening. He has chosen for his theme: "The Lite and Death of Worlds."— Tbat it will bo interesting as well as instructive, there can be no doubt. It will be illustrated by numerous paintings The admission is only fifty cents, and reserved seats can be secured at Button's without extra charge.

THB Oasette on Monday took up its little hatchet and vigoroualy "nailed" the first "Campaign lie," as it termed it, of the season. It was the statement of the^Exprees tbat the oounty has to pay Richard Dunningan (100 for sttending to the duties of Prosecutor Kelly, while the latter excursed to Washington.

THE journeymen bricklayers held a meeting this week and resolved on ask ing an advance in wages to 9250 a day until the first of June, and f3.00 until the first of March following.

Maggie Mltohell, in Peoria (111) Transcript: "I see by^rour paper and others in Peoria, that my age is being discussed quite freely. I am in no way ashamed of my age—it is 43 years.*I,was born in New York'oity September the 10, 1836, and started in my professional career in the old Park theater, in that city in the winter of I860."

The Indianapolis Journal remarks that: "There was a good deal of caloric in Miss Abbott's Juliet. It is your thin woman, after all, who are beat adapted to the interpretation [ot the grand passion. Embonpoint is the proper thing for prose and stateliness, but it takes a woman without aa ounce of superfluous flesh to strike fire. Miss Abbott is the lithest, supplest, twiniugest Juliet we ever saw. But she does put a little too much red paint on her lips.-

Viola A. Pomeroy, who brought suit against a San Francisco theatrical manager beoause she was discharged for having a wooden leg, has had her witnesses swear that, though not as nimble as a oat, she is as nearly so as most actresses. One of them said that he had seen her, as Cassy in "Uncle Tom's Cabin," jump out of a window and run over a river of ice like a whirlwind another recollected that, as Florence in "The Red Pooket-book," she jumped from a sinking ship and was rescued, just as well as any woman with two natural legs oould have jumped and been rescued, and a third had witnessed her in "Lucretia Borgia" in a part in which she wore tights. Miss Pomeroy offered to danoe before the court, to show that her wooden leg was no detriment, but that was not permitted.

IMPORTANT SALE OF REAL ESTATE. We are informed by Wm. E. McLean, attorney for the estate of the late Corey Barbour, that all the splendid land of this estate will be sold at auction, on tbe first Saturday of March (the 6th of March), at the court house. Besides the share set apart to Mr. Barbour's widow, tbeie are 256 acres, and it is tbe present intention of the executor of the estate to sell the land in parcels of ten acres or more, unless some capitalist will step forward and take the entire tract, in the meanwhile, at private sale, or purchase it at the auction in whole. It is conceded to be the most desiratble tract of realty anywhere near tbe oity, and for fertility of soil, commanding site, and general beauty of location, it is unsurpassed, even on Fort Harrison prairie, the most beautiful of all prairies. As the oity is growing rapidly in that direction snd the boom in everything else is lust beginning to affect real eatate, we shall expect a lively competition for this property among those desiring such an nvestment.

Farmers, Improve Your Stock. Dr. Ketoham, living half a mile north of tbe oity, has for sale, at the low prices, two male hogs and some young sows of the best breed in the country, viz: Essex, and Poland-China. They attain to the enormous weight of 700 pounds. ____________

An Anxious Friend.,

"Did you make the train this morning?" "No it was made in the oar shops." "I mean (slightly embarrassed) did you catch the train 7" "Of course not itVi not infectious."' "Well, you darned fool, did you arrive at the depot in timef" "No, you infernal idiot, I arrived in my carriage." "Great heavens! did you board the carbT" "Thunder and lighting! you know I don't keep a boarding house." "Well, my dear sir, let us change this£subject. Have you seen the stacks of new goods just in at the Star Notion House?" "My most esteemed fellow citizen, nowjyou strike me proud. I have and do you know they have just opened out a full and complete assortment of the most beautiful new laces, in Languadoc, Darnstells, Bretonne, Brabaut. Cashmere, Tuaoan, Torchon, Silk, Valenoiennes and Guipure. Also the most complete line of sll Silk GrosGrsin and Satin and GrosGrain Ribbons, in all the new shades, more beautiful and exquisite in colors than has ever yet been offered to the trade in Terre Haute. "Did you see their 2,3,4 end 6 Button Kids in Blaoks, and all the street and opera shades. They surely lead the corset trade with the largest and best selected stock in the city. Every corset warranted perfect or money refudded." "Why, my dear Christian friend, do you know your anger reminds me of a circnmstanoe that happened when I waa young and tender. I will relate it to you: "A boy arose one winterl morn

And came to breakfast rather late, Yet raised a fuss beoause there was No nice pancake upon hU plate. His father took him o'er bis knee

Raised he his hand oft through the air, And when the boy got loose from him He hid his spankaohe lu the chair." "That boy was I, and even now I find relief in turningtmy thoughts from that chastisement to the new and exoellent assortment of Ladies', Misses and Childrens' plain, fancy and embroidered bose at the Star Notion House, where they sell at prices that defy competition."

They are fast filling up their Dry Goods department with tbe most beautiful styles of Prints, DeBaige, Alpacoae, Mohairs, Cassimeres, Henrietta Cloths, Bleaohed and Brown Muslins, Flannels, Sheetings. Shirtings, Table Linens, Towels, Nap*kins, &o., ifcc., fcc.
