't Dress Goods.

38 Konth Fourth street,

We call the attention of the trading public to our stock of fine medium ana low price Dress Silks, Satins, Velvets and Trimmings to match. Our line of Cashmeres, when brought in comparison with those in the high-priced stores, "take the cup" every time. Our Black and Colored Silks are fully 20 per cent, less tlian the high-priced stores. To verify this, take a look at them.

FOSTER BROTHERS.

*1 ^Blankets fj Atla^ycar'sj. us. White Wool Blankets at 91.75 a pair can only be had at Foster Brothers'. Better goods equally cheap in proportion. Our Flannel stock is full, and so is our stock of Canton Flannels, from 7 cents up. Remember every article in our house is marked at the very lowest possible price. We never mark an article one cent higher than we are compelled to.

FOSTER BROTHERS.

Cloaks and Shawls. Hero is where our one-priced system shines the brightest. Usually the stores put an enormous profit on this class of goods, and if they can't get the price marked on it, take less. Our systeip compel Is us to make even a 950 shawl at the very lowest cent of profit, for under no circumstances have we a chance to break the price.

OCB wide-awake business men have sent in so many contributions to the advertising columns that a considerable amount of other reading matter that had been put in type has beat crowded out, and much that we intended to say has to be left unsaid. It is with no ordinary pride that we refer to this feature. Few papers hare so many first-class bouses represented in their columns as are to be found regularly in The MaiL Any journal might be proud of such an endorsement.

Action on the matter was deferred until the next meeting.

THIS city was never before more liberally suppled with the products of the soil than at present. Strings of wagons loaded withovery thlng edible this fruitful country produces, go up and down the streets, retailing at private houses the overplus not taken at the grocery stores, Notwithstanding the vast quantity, good prices aw generally maintain ed, with the exception of apples and fruits, which have beo&( swprising abundant and generally cheap. Potatoes meats, groceries and staples maintain their prices above the average. These good prices are greatly due to the activity in the various manufacturing industries of our people Who, being employed at good wages, are able to, and do buy freely of good things so temptingly dis played. While then Tterre Haute is largely prospering the farmer? roundabout are sharing in her prosperity and partaking of fruits of her profitable activity. In this respect—let elections go as they will—wa do uot wapt change.

THE marriage of A. B. Coffroth and Miss Hal lie Wood, was celebrated Tuesday evening, at the Episcopal church, Rev. S. F. Dunham officiating. As is usual on such occasions the church was crowded. A novel feature of the fcorenwmywas the stiewing of flowers *n the aisle in advance of the wedding party as they retired from the altar. This was done by Misses Helen McGregor, Hose Farrington and Helen Gilbert. Another feature was the singing of the ballad "Call me thine own" by Miss May McEwan, during the ceremony. The attendants were Miss Laura Richardson and Geo. F. Jenckes. The ushers at the church were Frank Danaldson, Fred Shaw, Dr. Wm, H. Hall and John Patterson. The wedded pair took the night train for Chicago, and go thence to the home of Mr. Cofforth In Pennsylvania. 9

Tho Democrats, on Monday evening, escorted 3en.

The parade of mannfactaring interests was simply immense, Mild mugt have been gratifying to every dtiaen who takes a pride in onr growing prosperity, whether he be Republican, Itefnoerat or National. At night the Republicans carried over 3,000 torches* and with fire works, colored lights, and the pretty movements of the well drilled enorts, the scene was btiQant beyond description, TO-day and to-night the Democrats make their last gnmd rally and expect to eclipse that of Wednesday.

MERRTLL ir. SMITH.

When this gentleman was seeking the nomination for the office of County Clerk, we said of him what is contained in the extract below. At the request of some of his friends we republish it, j»n& re-endorse the same most cordially

Among all tho young men in this dty we know of no better business man, one of better habits, more popular with his associates, in the social as well as business community, or one whose future seems brighter, than Merrill N. Smith—familiarly known as "Med" Smith—whose name is announced in this issue as a candidate for County Clerk. He came to this city in 1853—a yery early period in his life. At the age of fourteen he enlisted in the 133d Indiaiia Volunteers, remaining in the army until the close of the war. He is now tlie Captain of our light Guards. For ten years he has had continuous service in the grocery house of Hulman & Cox, now* H. Hulman, the past six years holding the responsible position of head bookkeeper—the accounts of a house doing yearly a million and a half dollars worth of business being faithfully and accurately kept. This service has also made him familiar with the court proceedings. Besides, he is a remarkably fine penman, and if elected it is his purpose to go into the Clerk's office and in person attend to the duties, for which he is peculiarly fitted. He will not be under the necessity of hiring some one to run the office for him. The Republicans could not select a better, more popular, or more deserving candidate for this responsible office.

Bartram & Co., The New Tailors! Are now open and ready for business.' They are showing abetter assortment of goods, and finer styles, than have ever been kept in Terre Haute. Mr, Bartram is recently from 174 Fifth avenue, New York. Previous to that he was cutter for Moorbrink, of Cincinnati. There is, therefore, no possible reasonjtohy anyone in this city or vicinity should hereafter give orders to outside tailors. B. Sc Co. pledge themselves]!to 'meet every requirement which the most fastidious gentleman can demand, both as to quality of goods kept and in the cutting and make-up of their garments. They are custom tailors exclusively, keeping no clothing or furnishing goods. Their journeymen are all new to this section, having been imported £from New York and Chicago. Give them a trial, and you will be oonvinoed that Terre Haute has at last secured what she has so long needed—a strictly high grade, New York City merchant tailor. They purpose making such work only as shall prove creditable to them, believing it to their interest to leave low grade work alone. Call on them.
