A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
Fanny people are greatly to be pitied. Thete are many reasons why tbey tax ^our sympathy. Many of them are compelled to work very bard—In order to be fanny. When we bar* witnessed the -exhausting and incessant efforts of these people to get off am using sayings, we have wondered why there has never risen a philanthropist to do for them what Bergb baa done for dnmb animal* by his society for prevention of cruelty.
There are few constitutions strong enough to endore tbe strain necessary to win and keep ibe reputation of being fanny. Most of these die early, or, what is worse, they live among people who wish tbey were dead, or, at least, dumb. There is another reason why tbey are to be pitied, and ibatis,beoaose their labor makes them so intensely disagreeable. Probatly of all tbe species of disagreeable people to be met in this world where disagreeables abound, there is not one that stirs up so much dispust or in so many minds, as tbe species of humanity known as funny. Nine-tentbs of tbe time ibme people nauseate with the result* of tbeir efforts to be witty, producing stale jokes, and silly jokes, and Idiotic Jokes, and still-born jokes, and abortive jokes. To be so disagreeable and only be paid with a laugh now and then, must be a great cruelty. And this suggests another reason wby they are to be pitied, and It is tbe fact that they generally disappoint expectation. Fnnny people are expected to be fanny, and nine times out of ten when tbey do tbeir best tbey are not funny at all. People get so disgusted with tbeir incessant efforts to be amusing snd tbeir multiplied failures, that when tbey do get off a good thing, tbe wonder is not so much at tbe merit of tbe joke, as it is at tbe fltct that one caa say so much and try so hard and sucoeed so seldom. To poke people facetiously in the riba and look for a responsive smile, and see, Instead of tbe smile, a countenance suggestive of a very bad odor, must be painful to one ordinarily desirous of tbe good opinion of his fellows. And then if your funny man takes to writing, there is pomethlug terrible in the thought of bis being obliged to read over and over again his own jokes. After be bas studUA them out ho must write tbem out, and then he mu«t read over tbe manuscript to see if it is .correct. Perhaps he is required to read the proof. And finally they come back to biin in tbe paper or magazine. By this time the jokes, even if they were good in the first place, must be moro disgusting than maggoty cheese la to one of a delicate stomach. Think of Mark Twain reading his "Telephone Conversation" in tbe June Atlantic! Of course everybody who has read it, thinking it would be funny because Mark Twain wrote it, has been disappointed. But think of poor Mark himself reading it over in cold blood, or oold types rather, and wondering bow bo ever ooald have been suoh a fool as to send that out Into the world as something funny. To work bard to be fanny, generally to fail and to disgust inatead of amuse, to be avoided or pitied on account of stillness, to be compelled to live ever on tbe lookout for tbe fanny side of everything said or done, to repeat, or, worse, to read one's own jokes,—all this ought to inspire with terror tbe mind of every young person who has begun to try to be fanny, It is all well enough to be fanny because you cannot help it and when you cannot help it. But do not try to be funny oven to help out of tbe poorhouse.
FATALISM is a half truth. When we look at tbe clrcumstanoss of truth, education, porroundings, and events over whleh we have no oontrol, but all ef whloh produce their effect upon ouroharaotera and deeda, there is reason for the feeling that our destiny is in other hands than oar own. But when we see that the way to sure failure in to drift, allow ourselve* to be the sport of circumstances, and that highest succoas crowns the effort' to meet and conquer circumstances, we ind that in a high seme it la ttue that "Every man la .the architect Of hie own fortune.*' It a man wants an •souse for failure he can find a very plauaible one iu the seeming fatalism of life. If one determine* to win high success he will face Fate and find tbe lion which alarmed him seourely chain-

Susan Perkins' Letter.
TKRBB HAUTE,July 16,1880.
MY DEAR JOSEPHINE It is frequently a cause of remark that so many of the young men of oar city "turn out" badly that if they do not come to some bad end neither do tbey make any progress, either financially, intellectually, or morally. White I am not In a position to know a great deal of the habits of Terre Haute young men, my little experience and observation only confirms the above statement. It is true that Terre Haute has her young men who are wealthy, but tbe wealth is generally inherited, not tbe reeult of labor or ability. True also that we have young men who have studied, and whose intellectual attainments are above tbe average these are generally to be found in tbe profeasions, as young lawyers, doctors, Ac. Then we have young men who have attained some celebrity in political affairs, who are ambitious to scale tbe ladder of power which can bestow so many|®Q|r uments.
Aside from these different classes the young men seem to stand still, as it were. They are generally clerks, mechanics, and laborers. Ail of these vocations are honorable and can be made tbe stepping stones to'something higher and more important in tbe future. The clerk might become tbe prince of merchants tbe mechanic, by improving tbe opportunies bestowed upon him in the way of study and experiment might become tbe author of some great invention or the director of some mammoth machinery establishment. Tbe laborer bas tbe whole world before him,—every avooation or profession to choose front. And yet how very few of the clerks or mechanics ever rise above tbe positions in which they first start out! They plod along in tbe aame old roctlme, doing the same things every day for years, and Inatead of improving over tbeir first attempt at tbe business in hand, they seem to grow more stupid. Instead of saving money they run in debt, and finally are so completely immersed in the tribulations which come upon cbem thick and fast that they give up in despair. if
k-*i
"nJfr
The reason for this' apparent indifference to progress I think are two fold. First, these young, men often marry early before tbey have saved any money and are hardly settled in their positions. Now, although true love la very touching in the abstract and tbe beautiful illusion about love in a cottage sounds very sweet and fascinating, it is my feeble opinion that all tbe true love in the world cannot make one dollar, two in value. It bas been said and truly, that what the average young man of the day spends lor oigars, llquorn, and other foolishness would support a wife. That may be true and if it was simply a question of a wife to support I should say no more. But by and by there will be children to support aa well, and when Tommle wants new boots, Mary a new dress and Susie a new set of school books, and all of th's to come out of salary which was barely enough to supply the needs of tbe young couple when first married, then no wonder the father grows discontented and finally stupid and indifferent in the dally task of making both ends meet. The young oouple grow old when they should be in tbe prime of life and tread the same beaten path from one year's end to another
Now would it not be a little wiser and a good test of their devotion to one an other for them to wait until they had something to start on, besides true love and a rented cottage?
The second reason wby tbe young men neither make fortunes nor names for themselves and keep on in the old beaten traek so long is because tbey are too ambitious to keep up with tbe times in the matters of dress, amusements, snd society. If a young man pretends to keep up witb such things, he might as well relinquish all hopes of saving money. To say that men do not care for dress and fashion is simply ridiculous take a look at the show windows of Owen, Pixley & Co., or James Hunter, and the display of laundried linen, fine underwear, costly neck ties, studs, pins, •earns and rilk handkerchief isdaaaling. The sale of these things must be equal to the display or these business houses would not exist and seem so flourishing. That many young men do indulge in luxuriee of dress the testimony of our own eyes will prove.
I have in my mind a certain yonng man, well educated, quick of perception, a good conversationalist, polite in manner, whose salary is about one thousand dollars ryear. All of ths above qualities fitted him adsoirably for shining in society. He found it out, and was glad of it. Tbe more be became convinced of bis fitness for shining in the social firmament, the better did he like it. At least so I judge from appears noes. At first everything was as lovely as possible he aeoepted Ma. B*s invitations to dinner, so* Ma. 0% invitation to tea ths evening party of Miss A- was attended with pleasure, and ths musical soiree of Miss D. was another on his list of triumphs. Bat all these things could not be accepted without making
some return for them. So he spent his money in taking some of-tbem to ride, in taking others to tbe opera or theatre —at 92.00 for reserved seats for two—in patronizing the green house for cut flowers, and White's or Scudder's for ioe cream. He liked to dress well, snd extensively patronized Hunter and tbe others he wanted pleasant apartments in which to receive his young gentlemen friends, and patronized the carpet and furnishing establishments he liked to read and keep up with late literary news, so he bought every new book as it came out, and all periodicals and papers. Sometimes he did not happen to have tbe ready money for these things, so he ran up bills. This went on for several years be received a salary that ought to bave supplied his wants, but bis wants were without number. After a while these people whom be owed Bent in tbeir bills, "tbe tailor, the baker, tbe candlestick maker," to say nothing of the confeotioner, tbe florist, and others too numerous to mention. He did not psy them, because he couldn't, and how It will esd is "one of those things that no fellah can find out." But when tbe grand crisis comes I will let you know, dear Josephine. For it is sure to come. Good bye. SUSIE.
P. S.—If any of my young friends, after a careful survey of the boots ana shoes which I have laid out for their inspection, think they were mado to order expressly for them, put tbem on by all means—and wear tbem. too.

in a very excited manner and inquired for "that 9an who stood bore." He had gone. ^Well," ssid she, "he hss taken my pocketbook and all there is in it," and she pointed ruefully to the open, empty chatelaine. "How much money was in it?" ssked the clerk. She was too excited to tell, or for some reason didn't wish to do so. "What's that in your hand inquired the olerk. Looking at the hand designated, abe replied, "Ob, my, that's it."
One '.of tbe summer fashions, aa described by Clara Belle in the Cincinnati Enquirer, is a new laugh, which goes like this 1 "Te-he, to-he! Ha, ha, ha? Oh-h-h-h-ha!" The directions are as follows "A low and shy beginning is made with the 'te be/ as though mirth was straggling Inside to break out through maidenly reserve, and tbe mouth la kept tight closed, while tbe eyes are opened wide, thus giving an expression of mingled demureness and miscbievousness. Then follows tbe 'Ha-ha-ha-,' higher and louder, with a parting of the lipfe to show the teeth, if they be white and regular. Tbe 'Oh-b-b-h' comes next in the tone of surprise, reproof, Or artless gayety, according to tbe nature of the thing laughed at and the voice rises into a pretty little scresm. The ensuing pause oOt%s a sudden ^sense of tbe impropriefcy^of making so much noise, the eyes are cant down, and a blush can in most instances be produced by holding tbe breath, witb tbe lungs very fully inflated. The final 'Ha-ha-ha' la given as a cresoendo, spiritedly, and without any show of restraint, like tbe outbursting hilarity of an unconventional milkmaid. This novelty in laughs is beard everywhere in tbe metropolis, and is sure to become popular at the.summer resorts. With ltttle alteration it can be made to fit any] jnoutb.
AN UNFORTUNATE'S DEATH. Mollis Dejarnette, tbe girl who was shot last week at Danville, Virginia, by her brother, died on Thursday evening. Before she expired she sent for a friend to whom she tslked freely. She stated that only lately she bad adopted ber life of sin and shame that she bad fhllen a victim to tbe.wiles of a libertine aome eighteen mOntbs ago, who, under a^ promise of marriage, bad betrayed her* but that only for a short time ha£ ebe. led the life of an open (urosfcH&ei*- fife* freely acknowledged the justice of ber fate, and expressed a wish that every virtuous woman in tbe world might seo ber then, that they might be deterred by the spectacle from following her example. She earnestly besought that her brother might not be prosecuted, saying that no punishment ougb to befall him that he had done ouly what was right, and what be should have done. She gave an account of the shooting as follows. She said that her brother oame to tbe door and asked for her, and on her appearance requested to see her privately. She conducted him to ber room, when be immediately shut the doer and locked It, and commenced upbraiding her for her course in bringing disgrace upon the family name. She besought his forgiveness, and begged to be taken from the house and provided with a home where she oould redeem the past by a life of honor. Telling her that WHS impossible, he announced that he had come to kill ber. She Implored his mercy, and falling on her knees, was beseeching him not to kill her, when he commenced firing en her, and oontlnued as rapidly as possible until tbe pistol was emptied. Her conversation indicated a degree of refinement and intelligence greater than is usual with women who fall into her way of life. The poor girl was deeply repentant for her past life. Her chief anxiety seemed to be for the safety of her brother, and her dying words were those of forgiveness snd an earnest request that for her sake he should escspe the punishment of the law.

"Lift the child to the telephone wad let me hear it cough," he commands. Tbe child is lifted and it coughs. "That's not the croup," he declares and he declines to leave the bouse on such small matters. He advises grandmamma, also, to stay in bed, and, all anxiety quieted, the trio settle down for the night

In a recent lecture in Cincinnati, Col. Robert Ingersoll made tbe following remark "I would wish that tbe friends who bid us 'good-night* in this world might meet us witb 'good-morning' there. Just as long as we love one another we'll hope for another world just as long as love kisses the lips of death will we believe and hope for another world."
Of the four American citizens of African descent who were hsnged on Friday of last week, Alexander Howard, of North Carolina, listened attended to the exhortationa of his spirItual advisers, as was to be expected of a member of thq Baptist Church of twenty years' stsnding Dsniel Washington, of South Carolina, expressed a hope that be might meet his keepers snd exeootioners in glory, and Henry Ryan, of Georgia, standing under the noose, said: "When I close my eyes on this world Jesus will oome to my soul." Tbe behsvior of George Allen Prloe, of Ohio, wss not so edifying. He wouldn't sees preacher of any denomination, and bis speech from the scaffold was a model of brevity, rather than of piety. "I've tried to live well," he told tbe crowd, "and Idle the best lean.".
That must be a curious religious sodety over which Rev. I. S. Kallooh presides as pastor in San Francisco, and his spiritual teachings mnst be remarkably effeotive. At the conclusion of bis sermon on a recent Sunday morning Mr. Kalloch made an explanation of his political position. He was interrupted and called to order by B. Larzalere, one of tbe trustees of the ohurcb, who remonstrated with him for violating tbe sgreement with tbe board regarding the introduction of politics Into his morning sermons. Mr. Larzalere waa only prevented from continuing his remsrks by a roar from tbe great organ and tbe singing of tbe closing hymn by tbe congregation. The remarks whiob gave offense were charging corruption on the Republican party, and the pastor's announcement that he should support the Cindnnsti nominstions. v»
A minister in New Hsmpshire, whose salary was |300 a year, has beenjdismissed by bis congregation in a manner which he contends is a violation of their contract with him. So great is tbeir desire for a cessation of his services tbst they have closed the church and locked the door against him. He insists tbst he will collect his salary from this hardhearted and ungrateful people. Therefore he writes two new sermons every week, snd on Sandsy marches to church with them, resdy to deliver tbem if tbe people will but listen. He thas makes a legal tender of tbe of the disooures* and takes witesses with him to prove his intention snd ability to perform his psrt of tbe ooatraot, The frame of mind in which this reverend gentleman finds himself while composing these legaltender sermons must be such as to make it a fortunate thing for the people that tbey are not compelled to bear them. It seems strange that an educated man should be willing to go through several months of this unique sort of sermonizing for a possible chance of something less than a dollar a day, and with a great probability of being nonsuited out of even that pittance.
At tbe prayer meeting of a fashionable Brooklyn oburch tbe other evening, an old gentleman who had just oome from New Jersey told the people of tbe great need of rain felt by tbe farmers of that State. Then be asked tbe brethern to pray for immediate showers, in order that the grain may not be entirely parched up. He wss followed by a brother just arrived from Wisconsin, who announeed that In his part of the country there was no need of praying for rain, far they had suffered from such copious rain falls that many of their farms were under water. He told them, however, to be comforted in view of tbe possible destruction of the hay and grain crop of New Jersey, for the yield of such things in Wisconsin was so great that tbe New

Jersey farmers could buy of thetrWis-^j conain brothers at exoeeding low prioes.j|f The old gentleman, as the represents-^ tive of the New Jersey Mends, oould not exactly see the equity of this, norunderstsnd where the Jersey men should find oomfort in having to buy, even at* low price*, what they bad expeoted tO'7 reap from their own forms. Tbe brother^ who next led in prayer was somewhat embarrassed, but he made it all right by thanking tbe Lord for tbe Buperahundant harvests of Wisconsin, and offering a petition for showers on the parobed fields of the New Jersey farmers. 1
