N. B. EKISKAN—"Bony" Erisman, as he was familiarly known, died at hi3 home south of the city on Monday afternoon after a brief illness. He was thirty eighty years of age, hearty and robust of health, and his death was a surprise to many of his friends. He was a native of this country, highly esteemed, and his death is a loss to the community.

THOMAS MCGBAW and wife,of north Fourth street, have had a narrow escape. They ate some sausage purchased at a city grocery and became suddenly ill, and only after a great exertion on the part of the neighbors and a doctor were they revived. A portion of the sausage was given to a cat and it died in less than an hour. A number of chickens met a similar fate.

SIXCE the holidays the sales of The Mail to newsboys have been steadily increasing each week. Last week the city edition was exhausted an hour before the usual time of closing sales, and some of the boys were unable to get full supplies for their regular patrons. We aim,to print enough papers each week, but occasionally there is an unexpected increase in the demand for the best paper in Terre Haute.

THE popular Davis Family, the sweet singers, whose songs have delighted so many gatherings in this city, will give a series of concerts in tho surrounding towns, beginning with Brazil on the evening of the 19th. They will be assisted by Mrs. Aydelotte, the reader, and Prof. Herman Leibing, the pianist, altogether forming a combination which we cheerfully commend to our neighbors. We hope one entertainment for this city ill be included in the series.

We prefer the conduct of the most popular and the most successful newspaper In the Wabash valley to any home office in the gift of the goverment.

TYLER MASON, well Known in this city for his work in the temperance cnuso dropped dead on Thursday at Champaign, Ills, where he was engagod to begin a series of temperance lectures. Apoplexy was the cause. He had been in the best of health. Ho was 44 years of age and weighed 440 pounds. For many years ho was a gambler and run kard. Four years ago ho reformed, and his reformation was of the most thorough character. Though he frequently wont among his old companions, and would sit in saloons for hours, talking tomperance, he never permitted the old appetite to gain the mastery.

THE Horticultural Society, which has of late boon horticultural only in name, had a session of unusual interest on Thursday at the residence of Hon. Wm. Mack. The good repute of Mr. and Mrs. Mack for gonorous, genial hospitality suffered none on this occasion. Among tho exorcisos of most interest were papors road by Mrs. Penco on her recent trip to Europe by Capt. Potter on "Tho Rhine," and Mrs. J. O. Jones on some of her school recolloctions. This brought up the school question in tho discussion of which remarks were made by A. Bronson Alcott, Rev. Stlmson, Judgo Rhoads, Mr. Mack, Capt. Potter, C. W. Barbour, II. D. Scott and J. O. Jonos. Wo regret that In the condensation of a week's doings our space will not permit of giving more extended reports of these meotings. The task must be left to tho daily papers with their ample columns.

THE question of the abolition 6f the Criminal court and the establishment of a Superior Court| has become one of party politics—which is much t® be regretted. So far as we can learn threefourths of the lawyers here are in favor or retaining the courts as they are and extending the jurisdiction of the Criminal court so as to give relief to the ovorburdened docket of the Circuit Court. If this arrangement is satisfactory to the attorneys, who are the most interested and the better able to judge, it strikes us that as a matter of economy, the bill to extend the jurisdiction of the Criminal court should become the law. Here,are two courts thoroughly organised^ both presided over by excellent judges—one a Republican and the other a Democrat—neither of them "pisen" politicians. The change involves no additional expense. If Judge Long is "legislated" out of office it will be a boomerang to the Republicans. At the first general election he will be elected Judge of the Superior Court "by a large majority.*'

THE PASSING SHOW.

SHOWS AND SHOW POLKS.*1*

The audience which assembled at the Opera House Monday evening heartily enjoyed a good drama, well played by an excellent company. We learn that "Deacon Crankett" will probably be played here again this season on the return trip of the company. If so, we commend it to our readers. No one, be he church member or not, can be the worse for witnessing such a drama. What more impressive scene than the family assembled for evening prayers, the Deacon reading a portion of the bible, the orchestra preceding it with that grand old tune, "Old Hundred." Even the customary stage villain turns out all right. Deacon Crankett," by Ben Maginley, is a skillful piece of character acting, of the hearty, brusque and burly sort. Though brought up to biblereading, he has no taint of the canting hypocrite about him, is conscientiously honest, and has a heart bigger than his body and all his worldly possessions put together. He is frank as the sunshine and open as the air, thinks the right things, and says just what he thinks about everything. He makes no pretentions he lives his life as naturally as the crops grow, and the flowers bloom, and the winds blow. The character of Joe Thatcher is somewhat absurd—an obtuse blockhead—but Joseph Wheelock makes in it a strong personation. His whining and moping over the loss of his sweetheart, however, does not accord with the rugged and manly character which the dramatist evidently intended to idealize"

Our city will be honored, this evening, by a visit from Bartley Campbell, the distinguished dramatic writer, who comes to superintend the production of his new drama of "Government Bonds," which will be played to-night for the second time. It is suggested that his appearance before the curtain be demanded. Ho cannot resist a call on this occasion from the best show town in Indiana.

Tho Comedy in which Robson and Crane have gained their greatest reputation is that of "Our Bachelors." All who saw them as the two Dromios, last season, will be glad to see them in this. Speaking of its performance, the New York Evening Express says "Robson and Crane are possessed of idiosyncra sies that are conducive to infinite mirth, and are so opposite in their styles that to Bee them together is of itself sufficient to excite tho risibilities of an audience. When they are fitted to a play, as in "Our Bachelors," it can readily be un derstood how tiie fun becomes wild and uproarious." And the N. Y. Daily Graphic adds that whenever Stuart Robson's funny squeak and utterly blank ecstacy ol countenance fail to elicit a titter, Mr. Crane's vigorous denunciatory manner and mobile facial expression sets the house in a roar, and so from Crane to

Robson, and from Robson to Crane, the house perches on the merriest see-saw imaginable.

That charming and popular actress, Charlotte Thompson, comes next Thursday evening, supported by a good dramatic company, and for the benefit of the Light Guard will present her new drama of "The Planter's Wife." The Albany, N. Y., Argus says: "It is a play that grows in public favor with each presentation. Those who see it a second time always find new beauties in its action, and are more pleased with it than at a first seeing. Miss Thompson's work is most artistic throughout. In the first part of the second act, in her scene with her affianced, the only time throughout the drama when she is seen in the repose of peace, without fear of further persecutions, die is very arch and provokes great good humor among the audience. But, presently, when her lover's guest is presented and a mutual recognition occurs, she rises even to grandeur in her interview with him. From that time to the dose her acting is extremely •motional, and some of the scenes arc very strong. I vrcold be im­

Joe Thatcher." Miss

Helen Sedgwick, as the heroine, has to labor under the serious disadvantage of an exceedingly homely face, but before the curtain fell had captivated the audience. The other characters of the drama are in good hands. Don't fail to see it when it comes again.

"You can't say enough about this, and you ought to blow the people up for not coming to hear it," said an enthusiastic musical man, on coming out of the Opera House Thursday evening, after the 'exquisite concert of the Mendelssohn Quintette Club. We confess that words fall us to do either the praise or the scolding. It is a shame that such perfect instrumentation as that of tho Quintette Club and of Camilla Urso, the violinist, should call out only the "small but select" audience for which our city is noted.

Those prime favorites, Mr. and Mrs. George S. Knight, entertain our people this afternoon and to-night. "Otto" is being played for a matinee performance, and to-night they will give their new play entitled "Government Bonds," and which they played at Springfield last Thursday evening for the first time. It was written especially for them by Bartley Campbell, and is said to be the best that has come from his prolific pen. The reputation of author and actors leads UB to anticipate an enjoyable entertainment this evening. The Knights have made themselves very popular herein the drama of "Otto," and there is not a little curiosity to see them in another play.

possible for any woman to act the part better than she." Indianapolis has secured Sara Bernhardt for two evenings—the J2fth and 26th of this month. IT''

Cincinnati Enquirer: The correspondent who writes to this paper to inquire if Sara Bernhardt is one of the Nautch girls will please send his real name and address not necessarily for publication, but as a clew by which he may be hunted down, »,

Mary Anderson in appearing in a boy's character foiled to add anything to her fame. In the New York letter to the Chicago Times the writer says: "Miss Anderson will not shine in shape parts her upper limbs do not "size up," so to speak, with the opulent artificiality of her make-up elsewhere." 7

Thousands of dollars are thrown away every season by the traveling companies for pictorial printing that scarcely anyone notices. Money spent in newspaper advertising is bound to come back. The public are bound to see it, and bad weather cannot wash it out. Managers are beginning to be aware of these facts.

The Columbus Sunday Capital says Frank Mayo will shake the romantic drama next season and become a "tragedian," piaying "Richard HI.," "Hamlet," "Lear," "Othello," "The Robbers," etc. How that nasal drawl will sound in "To be, or not to be," and in "Bind up the wounds give me another horse." Is there no means of stopping this calamity?

Because Miss Helen Potter proposed to give costume personations of Lawrence Barrett and Mdlle. Sarah Bernhardt, the Young Men's Christian Association of London, Ont., refused to allow her to appear in their hall, and sent her to Mechanics' Hall without changing the announcement of the place,—an operation which was financially disastrous to the engagement.

The father of Mr. Hans Haerting, the German journalist who died in Chicago, last week, is the proprietor and chief actor of the German Theater, in Cleveland. He received the news of his son's death just at the beginning of a performance. A postponement of the same was utterly impossible, the house being crowded with an expectant audience. Thus, although bowed down with grief, Mr. Haerting found himself obliged to play his role in a comedy of the most farcical and hilarious nature. The strain was too much for him, however, and at the end of the second act he fainted dead away.

The severity of the winter has had a particularly distressing effect upon nomadic professionals, and many have been compelled to throw up engagements on account of sickness caused by ilUioaiodilMaires and halla, and return to tlieir homes. Three leading lady stars are at present lying ill in New York from this cause, viz: Ada Cavendish, Maud Granger and Agnes Leonard, and any number of subordinate people have succumbed to tho effects of colds engen dered from this cause, and returned to their various homes.

Cleveland Voice: Some of the clergymen of Cincinnati have preached against the coming musical festival in that city, on the ground that it will tend to encourage people to attend operas and other theatrical entertainments. Without entering in the least into the merits or demerits of the theatre question, it is perfectly safe to say that clergymen who indulge in outbursts of this kind do themselves and the Cause no little in jury. It is so generally accepted that music and the legitimate drama are elevating and refining, that any question ing of so self-evident a proposition can only provoke ridicule.

Report says that McKee Rankin has a treasure in the new play by Joaquin Miller. The title of it is "49," and the hero of the story is one of the pioneers who has grown up with the country, but has not kept pace with advancing civilization. He is a relic of the past in the California of to-day, and he is the centre of incidents which are said to be both novel and interesting. The piece is in five acts, and the scenes are laid on the plains, in St. Louis, and Virginia City, by the Comstock lode. There are no red shirts or bowie knives in the play, which is a most gratifying fact, as when these properties appear there is generally very little else.

THE BETTER WORLD.

CHURCHES, PASTOR AND PEOPLE.

Rev. H. M. Bacon started yesterday to take charge of his new ohurch at Toledo, Ohio.

J. F. Soule will preach**sfl&e Congregational Church to-morrow morning at 11 o'clock.

S. R. Henderson and wife were granted letter of withdrawal this week from the Congregational church to unite with a Presbyterian church at Peoria.

Rev. J. W. Greene, at Asbury church will preach upon: "None righteous no, not one," and in the evening his theme will be "Every knee shall bow."

That Rev. Sweeney, the new pastor of the Christian Church, has a charming faculty of entertaining Sunday school children was shown last Sunday evening.

Rev. C. R. Henderson will have for Vis theme to-morrow morning at the Baptist church, "The Originality of Jesus," and in the evening, "What are Things Eternal."

At the Presbyterian Church to-mor-row morning Rev. Thos. Parry will have for his Subject "Man's activity and God'slife or Human dependence and independence. Evening subject, l"Peace."

Last Sunday afternoon Rev. C. R. Henderson organized a Bible class of adults—beginning with fifty-five ladies and gentlemen. It will meet at the church every Sunday afternoon at three o'clock, and is open to all who wish to pursue bible studies.

Centenary has the largest, best organized and most prosperous Sunday school in the city. Forty teachers, under the direction of Superintendent James Landrum, who but a few years since was one of The Mail's good little newsboys, have the work well in hand and take a deep interest in the same..

A local preacher prayed in meeting. "Lord, keep us from living in the seventh chapter of Romans, and help us into the eighth."

The Interior complains that some of the ministers !who send items of church news too frequently give information regarding themselves, instead of that which is of public interest in regard to religious work.

Says Robert Collyer: "I had no idea how easy it was for men and women of our free thought and free ways to drift from the service of the sanctuary, become their own temple, their own priests, and end by caring for neither."

Rev. Dr. Howard Crosby, in an address at Boston, says the word temperance has been wrested from its legitimate meaning, and that it signifies discretion or moderation, and not total abstinence, which cannot prevail because of its unmanliness. Indeed, he holds that it ought not to prevail. He calls for discrimination between distilled and fermented liquors. In a word, he favors the banishment of fierce alcoholic liquors, and the use instead of malt and fermented liquors. Tho total abstinence champions will now rally to attack the Doctor, and an interesting fight will follow.

In Boston there is a certain religious publishing establishment, which is recognized as a headquarters for ministers seeking temporary preaching places. It is besieged by a run of preachers who have a dash of the "carpetbagger" element in their ecclesiastical and professional make up. Some of them are men of talent who area little run down. Some are men who have worn themselves out in pastoral service, some are do-nothings, and some are very excellent brethren, who are worthy of steady employment but who somehow or other do not manage to be favored with "calls" as their more lucky brethren are. A church wanting a supply for a Sunday is almost sure to find it here in various grades of quality and at corresponding rates of pay. The more expensive ministers are not to be found in this way, but rather the low priced ones. A few of these receive as high as twenty dollars on Sunday. Many are glad to go for ten, and there are some whose efforts can be secured for five dollars. These five dollar brethren are not esteemed either the most eloquent or the most original. They generally have a faded manuscript or two with them. Sometimes they are given to what they call extemporaneous preaching, that is te say, they preach without manuscripts, but give their hearers a repetition of what they have preached over and over again so often that they have no need of a manuscript as an aid to memory. This Boston headquarters of ministerial supply is an informal thing which attends to itself, and has grown up from the mutual necessities of churches and ministers. It regulates itself, costs nobody anything,, and is worth a great deal to those who make use of it. Its operation is quiet, and few people except those who are directly benefited by it know of its existence.

The "Brethren," whose organ is the Progressive Christian, are much disturbed on the subject of the style of clothing suitable for a Christian to wear. They are divided into several sections as to their belief. One section believes it right to wear only such garments as are generally recognised as "Dunker." These are made of coarse stuff, and are cot somewhat according to the fashion of those worn by regular Quakers. Yet there are such differences between these and genuine Quaker suits that the Quaker cut would not be accepted by a strict Dunker as the proper thing. The advanced "Brethren" discard the old fashions of their fathers and prefer to buy "store clothes" and to dress like other people. Between these two classes

r, -'T--

there are several varieties and grades," each holding with great firmness its peculiar views on dress. In tho Progressive Christian, a prominent writer, who opposes the rigidities of the very old fashioned clothing, opposes with equal earnestness the innovations of the liberal young members who would dress in the prevailing styles. This critic says: "I can't say that I have any particular objection to any man's dressing as he pleases. If he prefers to get himself up a later style and can, without inconveniencing himself, pay for it, it becomes nobody's business but his own. However, when he calls himself a Christian, that is, like Christ, I wonder if Christ were here if he would be found with a broadcloth coat, a stovepipe hat, a cane, eyeglasses, and a gold watch? Mark you, my fraternal dandy, I don't object to your outfit. I believe that a man like the above can and will be saved too, and as to the merit of it, outside the religious aspects of the case, I have nothing to say one way or another. If his weakness ends in tailoring it is all tolerably well." In his zeal to find fault with the cut of other people's clothes, he forgets that when Christ was 011 earth He wore just such garments as were worn by most of the people among whom Ho lived. There is no evidence that it is "like Christ" to wear an old style, broad brimmed hat and a coat of peculiar cut made out of regulation material. 1 1

MUCH TALK.

We have been pretty well "lectured" this week. Capt. Potter, on Sunday evening at Park Temperance Hall told of "Temperance in other lands."

Prof. Scoville lectured on "Premature death and preventable diseases," before the Central Temperance Club Monday evening.

Judge McNutt interested an audienco at the Baptist church, Tuesday evening, on "Prison Reform," a subject he evidently has greatly at heart.

Tho Horticulturists had an all day talk on Thursday. Dr. Swaflford delivered the regular Friday evening lecture at the Baptist church last night, having for his theme the two words Being and Life.

A. Bronson Alcott has been holding his entertaining and instructive "conversations" at Normal Hall since Wednesday evening closing last night at the Library rooms.
