MUNICIPAL MATTERS. The new city council does not start In auspiciously. The first meeting, on Tuesday evening, broke np in a disgraceful row. All the members were present except Mr. McKeen, who was in Kentucky. He bad paired off with Councilman Regan on all questions of a political nature.

Councilman Harrison caused to be read a statement in regard to the bribery case, which completely vindicated him. No action whatever was taken on it, the council proceeding with the regular business.

It was announced that the city attorney had prepared a lengthy ordinance in regard to sanitary measures. It will be considered at the next regulsr meet ing.

An ordinance to abolish the unnecessary office of market master and have the duties performed by the station house keeper, was voted on, resulting in five for and five against. The Mayor cast bis vote against the ordinance, and so the office of market master will be continued.

Mr. McCutcheon offered a resolution that all the standing committees for the ensuing year be elected by ballot. When put to vote it stood as follows: Ayes—Briggs, Ellis, Farrington, McCutcheon, Polk nayes—Beaucbamp, Clutter, Friz, Grace, Harrison. Here was another tie, and of course the Mayor decided in the negative.

Soon after Councilman Harrison desired to recall his vote. This could not be done, and be moved a reconsideration of the vote. It was carried and Mr. McCutcheon moved the adoption of the resolution that the committees be selected by ballot. Here was a critical moment, and much excitement ensued. The Mayor grabbed Marshall Kidd, whispered in his ear the Marshall rushed to councilman Regan, the latter rushed to the Mayor, sprang back to his seat and moved to adjoarn, Beauchamp shouted a second to the motion, McCutcheon yelled for the ayes and nayes, no notice was taken of him, and the Mayor grabbed bis bat started from his place, declaring the council adjourned to Monday evening, though no time was mentioned in the motion to adjourn. The crowd outside the railing began yelling for Harrison and that gentleman mounted the rostrum, saying: Gentlemen and fellow citizens of Terre Haute, I am a Democrat, was elected by Democrats, and always expect to be a Democrat, I

This, like an exciting story, must be marked to be continued, for the Mayor came back and began pounding with his gavel, said he controlled the building, demanded that tbe crowd disperse, and ordered the janitor to put out tbe lights.

Altogether it was one of the most disgraceful meetings ever witnessed in the council obamber, and no little curiosity is manifested as to the proceedings of the next session, whioh we suppose will be on Monday evening.

DECORATION DAY will be appropriately observed here ilext Saturday, and tbe exercises promise to be more interesting and imposing than ever before. Rev. O. A. Burgess, of Butler University, will deliver the address to the citizens and soldiers at the cemetery. He was a gallant soldier, and is an able and eloquent speaker: Mrs. W. H. Manning will read, the muslo will be under the direction of W. H. Paige, Col. McLean will have charge of tbe exercises by the G. A. R., Capt. Armstrong will direct the movements of the column, Capt. Douglass will look after the the flowers and decorations and the welfare of these who contribute, and the Ringgold band and drum corps will furnish muslo. A large committee of ladies, with Mrs. F. C. Crawford as chairman, has been appointed to prepare the floral decorations.

THB course of Friday evening leotures commenced last fall by Rev. Henderson, the Baptist church, have been very successful, and of great benefit. During he course Mr. H. has delivered thirteen lectures, on "Chemistry," and was ably assisted by W. C. Buntln, who made the experiments also one on "Mineralogy," assisted by Jacob Bauer one by Hon. Wm. Mack, on "Meteorology one by Chambers, of Vlnoennes, on "Civil Oaths one by Judge C. F. McNutt, on

THE PASSING SHOWI

SHOWS AND SHOW PEOPLE.

Mitchell's Pleasure Party will make its first appearance at the Opera House to-night, producing tbe musical extravaganza of "Our Goblins, or, Fun on the Rhine," with the following cast: Benjamin Franklin Cobb, of Chicago

On Monday evening Pat Rooney and his New York Combination will give an entertainment at the Opera House. Thts combination, under tbe direction of Harry Miner, has tbe very cream of the variety profession, such as Fannie Delano, Georgia Kaine, Josie Granger, Jeppe Delano, Billy Carter, Wood and Beasley, Lamont and Ducrow, Reynolds and Walling, Morris and Fields. They are so well known here that tbe simple announcement of their coming is sufficient.

The Pirates of Penzance are sailing this way and will anchor at tbe Opera House dock on tbe evening of June.

Eliza Weathersby's sister Jennie will also probably retire from tbe Froli^ues. Without the beautiful Eliza and lier talented sister, we wouldn't give ranoh for "Hobbies."

William H. Delehanty, the well known song and dance man, died of hasty consumption on the night of tbe 14th in bis home, in New York city, aged thirty-three years.

Referring to Venie Clancey's coming marriage and adieu to tbe stage, an Elmlra critic says experience teaches that suoh retirements generally last a year and a half. gj

Showmen state that the older an elephant gets the more trouble he causes. His viclousne8s increases with age. Some elephants live to be a hundred years old, but they are usually killed when about in their fiftieth year, for after that age it is dangerous for a man to go near tbem.

Miss Lillie Wilkinson, of Wilkinson's "Unole Tom's Cabin" company, cast aside an old corset at a hotel la Holly, Mich., on the 15th nit., and had been away from that town a week before she recalled the fact that $250 in greenbacks were stitched into that article of apparel When she remembered this a member of the oompany was dispatched post haste to Holly, and was lucky enough, after digging over a lot of rubbish in the hotel yard, to find the corset and cash all right.

The jubilee singers from Flak University were excluded, on account of their color, from the first class hotels of Pittsburg. Mr. Loudln, their leader, had been a servant in one of the establishments. In the midst of a concert he made a speech on the subjeot. After oalling attention to the fact that his company had been guests at the palace of the German Crown Prince and at other homes of royalty in Europe, he said: "How differently are we treated in our own land. We oould not be aooommonodated at the Monongahela House or the Central Hotel because we were colored people. We were treated In the same way at Harrisburg, where we were actually turned out in tbe rain, because we were black. At Lancaster the hotel keeper wanted to break a contract made with our advance agent. He bad thought we were white, I suppose, and when be found we were better looking than that be wanted to turn us out and was only prevented from doing it by a fear of the law. Now when such things occur, isn't it bard for us to believe that the new era has dawned?"

THE PALACE OF INDUSTRY is a fitting name for A. H. BOEGEMAN'S busy place, No. 118 South Fourth street, where a corps of the best boot makers are at work on Men's Custom Work, guaranteeing a perfect fit, well made and serviceable. In addition to his homemade work Mr. Boegeman keeps a full tins of boots and shoes for men, women and children, which with bis small expenses he can sell at astonishingly low pzkss. —Strawberry Festival and Concert, Tuesday evening, at Asbury Church.

The Btory of the play is told in tbe following: A party of Amerisan travelers, consisting of a young married couple of a quarrelsome disposition, two young bachelors and a lovely young damsel, in their peregrinations, arrive in the foot of a ruined castle overlooking the Rhine. Being tired the party sit down to rest, and amuse themselves by singing, telling stories, drinking wine, etc. Among tbe stories told is one concerning tbe castle before them. It seems tbe castle was many years ago the home of a bold, bad baron, a cruel stepmother and a persecuted maiden. The maiden had for a lover a minstrel, whom the parents bated, and a wanderer was engaged to murder tbe minstrel. He does so, and also thinks he has killed the baron. At every anniversary of tbe crime, tbe ghost of the people connected with it appear and go through the whole thing. This is the legend told by one ef the travelers, and it has tbe effect of working upon tbe fears of the young husband. His wife and companions wander off and be falls asleep and dreams, and tbe balance of the piece is supposed to be his dream. The company assume the characters mentioned in the legend and enact the terrible scenes—the dreamer reserving for himself the part of the murderer. He has the nightmare and is awakened by the return of the company, and finds to his joy that it is all a dream.

KNIGHTS Of PYTHIAS. Tbe social event of the Week was the reception of the Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias, given to their ioany friends, at their new hall and drill room in the new Beach Block, corner Ohio and Sixth streets, Thursday evening. Shortly after six o'clock a squad of the Knights, in their attractive uniforms, beaded by the Ringgold Band, paraded the principal streets, the Knights doing some very fine msrehing, and executing some pretty fancy movements. About eight o'clock in the evening their rooms began to assume a very gay appearance, and by nine o'clock there was gathered about two hundred couples of Terre Haute's beet people. The first part of the entertainment was an exhibition drill by tbe Knights, commanded by 8ir Knight W. H. Rippetoe, which was enthusiastically applauded. The marching was superb, and the execution of their fancy movements in forming a cross, the triangle and square showed careful training and reflected great credit on their drill master. Surely our military companies have^a formidable rival in this uniform rank of the Knights and must look to their laurels. A very beauciful incident was tbe presentation of a buttonhole boquet to each of the drill squad while upon the floor, by little Miss Thomas. After tbe drill dancing commenced, and was oontinued until supper was announced, when the vast assembly repaired to tbe largo room occupied by tbe Terre Haute Commercial College, in the front of the same building. Here tables were found loaded with ice cream, strawberries, cake and lemonade, which was enjoyed by all. After this dancing was resumed and oontinued until quite late. The Knights are to be congratulated OH their very successful entertainment.
