TERRE HAUTE, NOV. 18, 1882

O VEM WORK.

Mr. Herbert Spencer's remarks at the farewell dinner given bim in New Yoik, have been the subject of much comment. Mr. Spencer said that Americana work too bard that he was everywhere struck with the number of faces whose strong lines told of the burdens to be borne, •nl with the number of gray-haired men who were too young for gray hair*. He pointed out some of the evils of this high-pressure manner of living, the inJury to health, the injury to posterity, the barm to social life, etc.

There is nothing particularly now in what Mr. Spencer said. Substantially the same things hare been said many limes before. It Is a text upon which there has bem much preaching both of pulpit and of press. Yet the evil continues. The habit of over-working goes on. The lire is kept roaring under the boiler by night and by day until it is .burnt through, and suddenly ibere is a collapse and then silence forever the end has come,

Last week, In one of the cities of this State, a young man died who was regarded en all hands as the most promising lawyer connected with the bar. He had only passed his thirtieth yoar, yet be ranked alongside of capable men who had grown gray in the practice. Immediately on graduating from college be was taken into a large law tlrm, whose business involved property interests of the largest consequence, and though but a boy the full burden of a strong man was laid upon hlsshoulders. Bright, ambitious, capable, ha wasgbuj of the opportunity that bad come to him, •nd worked as only such a man can work. Fortuue was kind to him. From rented bouse be was soon able to tako his wife and little ones to a comfortable cottage of his own, and this In turn wi aoon exchanged for a moro handsome ono on one of the finest streets in the city. Friends of course gathered iu troops around him. But one day his system, weakened by overwork and the too heavy burden of care which be bad carried, was attacked by typhoid favor -and in throe weeks be was dead. The house was full of friends to see the dead man borne to the cemetery, to speak, if possible, a word of consolation to the broken-hearted young wife. A terrible tragedy thin. A life worn out in ton years.

Tbore are cases not so bad as this. There are some porhaps worse—where death does not route at once, but the system is so shattered that the man is an invalid for all ho rest of his life, a burden to his family, rather than its supporter. These are extreme cases, but those which lie midway are bad enough, The what might be termed moderate overwork, which is all but universal among American business aud professional men, is greatly to be deprecated. If it does not destroy, it depletes our physical energies, causing the body to bo a much poorer servant than it otherwise would be. It defrauds us of our social life, for as Mr. Spencer well says, there Is not that abandonment to the moment which Is requisite for full enjoyment It Is prevented by the everpresent sense of business and responsibilities.

It I* easy t» preach against the sin of over-work,but It Is not so easy to reform It. Nevertheless it will never lie reformed without the preaching. ItN the habit of our people to endure evils for a long time, which eventually they rise up against and destroy. Rut it it takes a long time to get them Into the humor of doing so. By and by perhaps we shall get up a sentiment against our national -disposition to work too hard that will render the application of the brakes poesible.

MR*. LVNOIKV

A CHICAGO packer, fwbo says be has invested $750,000 in the necessary equipments for carrying on the dressed beef bbsiness, states that Vanderbllt has organized a company for the breaking down of the new business*, in its in­

fancy.

Vanderbilfa objection to the

shipment of dressed beef, instead of the live cattle, is that It cuts off a large per cent, of the revenue for freight—the meat being reduced in weight, 50 per cent., by the new process. Of course the shipment of dressed meat* u»a be made at much leas expense thau the transportation of the cattle, alive, thus furnishing them to the consumer at reduced cost, which is a good thing for the people, generally, but la not a good thing for the railroad kings, Jwhose interest it is to carry everything in Its bulkiest condition. And so they propose to crush the new enterprise, which would give cheaper meat to the people, in order that a few millionaire monopolists may profit at the people's expense. Mr. Vanderbilt and his ring may accomplish their design, and drive the shippers of dressed meat to the wall, but, it will be the worse for them, if they do. Sometime the people will not endure this tyranny of the monopolists any longer. They are fast being goaded to a point where forljearance will cease to be a virtue, and tbey will rise in their might and overthrow the railroad kiugs. Just how they will do it may not be clear, at this time, but there will be a way found for it. The people always tind a way for overthrowing great wrongs, and tbey will tind away to deal with the railroad kiugs, sooner or later.

VH.,

our progress in sanitary

knowledge is not keeping pace with our material development. It is true that the civilized world is not ravaged as it once wa.-i by pest and plague, but there is much yet to hope for iu the prevention of disease. Diphtheria, cholera, smallpox, typhus, malaria, and other terrible scourges of mankind still prevail to an alarming extent in spite of all the ert'orts of our wise physicians. For instance, in Pottsylvania county,

malignant diphtheria has been carrying off people by the hundreds. Persons of all.ages are attacked aud die iu a few hours. More than TOO hundred cases have occurred there since last July, of which more than one fifth have proved fatal. One man lost six children, and in many homes from one to tive of the little ones have been taken. The malady subsided for a time and then broke out with renewed violence. It would seem that medical science ought to be able to get at the bottom ot these old types of diseases and discover efficient antidotes for their cure and prevention.

VKKMONT is about to make a sweeping change in her system of taxation. A bill is before the Legislature, and has strong public sentiment in its favor, which proposes to levy all tho taxes needed, for State government, upon corjjoratlens. Heretofore, the corporations have paid little, and, iu many cases, no tax at all. I'nder the new law, It is thought the^amount raised In this way will.bo f'2.)0,000~a sum sufficient to pay all.the current expenses of the State. This is, certainly, a very radioal measure, and is Indicative ol the growing popular sentiment agalust the monopolizing tendencies of corporations.

elaborate article, in the

December uumber of the North American Review, op the Fit/. John Porter case, will attract much attention. With a laudable purpose to do justice to a gallant soldier, General Grant, after so long a time, reverses his former judgment of tho case and reaches the conclusion that a great wrong was done to Gen. 1'orter, by the ilnding of the court 'martial. If ({rant's article shall have the effect of silencing the detractors of Porter, and of putting an end to the all but everlasting controversy upon the subject, it will be almost as gratefully received by the public as by the family and friend* of the vindicated Geueral.

Bon INOKKSOI.I. wants the Republicans to run Gen. Sherman for President in 1884,and it ia Intimated that the General would not object to the honor. But the Republicans are not likely to do It all the same. We are not a military nation and our experience with military toen in the White House baa not been such as to create a consuming desire for military Presidents. The Republicans will probably draw their next candidate from the ranks of civil life where an abundance of tirst class material can readily be found.

MR. TEXSvso.XA new play, entitled "The Promise of May," which waa brought out recently in London, ia pronounced a dismal fail rare. The poet la now upwards of seventy and this latest production of his pen shows rapidly fa-ling powers. If the laureate were wise he would let hi* fame rest on the I work ot his earlier yean and net at~ tempt to add new flowers to hia wreath.

He should be willing to give the younger generation a chance.

THE Republicans are full of elasticity notwithstanding their big defeat. Already they are counseling together as to the proper course for tbem to pursue in the coming session of Congress in order to regain the confidence of the people. They propose to reform all existing evils and thus leave nothing for the Democrats to do when they come in next But the Democrats do not propose to be parties to any audi arrangement and will block the Republican programme whenever they are able. On the whole the next session gives promise of being one of more than usual interest.

IF

THK

Democrats are as wise as ser­

pents, they will go slow about plunging into a series of contests over the seats of Republican members, who have been elected by small majorities, in this and other States. If they go to fooling away their time in that kind of business the country will get euough of them long before 1884, and they will be peremptorily retired to private life again. Tbe people have had eyough of that kind of business in Congress. Some honest work in the interest of the people will be the winning card, at the present juncture.

THE Haytian coffee crop is said to be but a two-third yield, and Is sold at from three to four cents a pound. The people are very poor. One would think they would be. If coffee is worth that much In Havtl how does It come to be worth 25 and 30 cents In this country Is this the effect of the tariff? If so.the Democrats bad better look into the matter. Coffee is no longer a luxury. The Door man thinks as much of his cup of coffee as the rich man does. Nor does coffee need protection, not being a product-of this country. Let the duty on this necessary of life be removed.

IT is claimed that a French chemist lias discovered a method of making gas by tbe decomposition of steam and liquid hydro-carbon on heated lime, the product being almost a pure hydrogen which on being carburctied'results in a gas of from thirty to fifty oandle power. The process is said to be economical and a company with two million dollars has been organized to go into the manufacture. The hope is entertained that tbe new gas will supersede coal for runningengines and for other purposes.

THE PASSING SHOW.

SHOWS AND SHOW FOLKS.

The Opera House management is giving our people plenty of amusements. Four nights already this week, a German Band Jto-night and to-morrow uight, and four nights next week make a strong pull on a town of this size. Some of the good entertainments must necessarily suffer for lack ef patronage. One of these was the very excellent play of "£20,000," the leading character peraonated by Joseph F. Wheelock and supported by a company much above the average.

On Tuesday evening a very good company played well a very bad play—oue that should not have a place on any stage. Not that it is poorly written, but because of tbe bad moral, for it lionizes a very bad man—makes a hero of the robber and murderer "Jesse James," wbe is termed in the play "Tbe Bandit King." As might be expected the house was a top-heavy one, full In tlfe top galleries with boys and men, who cheered most lustily the exploits of their hero.

It wasn't as large'an audience as it should have been, but what it lacked in numbers it made up in enthusiasm, that listened with delight on Thursday evening to the German Opera of "The Merry War." Those who did not ununderstand the German language, heartily enjoyed the sparkling music, tbe grand chorussea, the elegant dressing of the superb company from tbe Thalia Theatre, New York. It was worth the price of admission to see the happiness depicted on the faces of our German citi zens, who, understanding the words, could appreciate the laughable situations, the sprightly dialogue, as well as revel iu tbe waltz music running all through. A finer entertainment of its class has seldom been given here.

Wasn't that a magnl.icent audience at the Opera House last night, aud wasn't that a delightful play? WTould that the stage was wholly occupied with dramas so wholesome, so sweet and pure, as "Esmerelda.^' Mrs. Burnett's fidelity to human nature, and the sentiments that are common to all humanity, together with Mr. Gillette's skillful dramatic work, have made this play a perfect gem. Perhaps it isn't constructed on the highest dramatic model, but its interest, its pathos, its sentiment, and last and best of all, its moving simplicity, carry its eloquence to every heart. Its situations, the financial struggles depicted, the love-making, the life In the country, the old man's homely honesty, he craft of the speculator, finding of the ore, and theu (be transitlou of all that is of human interest to Paris, the most elegant city in tbe world, charms the audience. And at last virtue, integrity aud the old fashioned love of all poetry and romance, bring a climax that fairly lifts the audience Into a noble transport of approval. There is no attempt at ela borate situations, yet the play is filled with tho most striking tableaux. The discovery of the North Carolina family by the mining engineer, bis attempt to obtain the land, wbloh is full of ore, from Esmerelda's mother, a Mrs. Rogers, are naturally and effectively pictured and brought out. The first suspicion and indignation manifested by Dave Hardy, his sincere devotion to the girl and her family, the old man's grief for the loss of his home, and Dave's cruel expulsion from the place by Lyddy Annt the mother, are treated with simple, ye, masterly, effect. And so ou through the play, the superbcoinpany—noono member pretending to star, yot each fitting perfectly his or her place—united to make the pretty home pictures so realistic that the actors were lost in the people of the story.

On Monday evening, Jame3 O'Neill, the distinguished actor, widely known through his impersonation of "Our Sa vior," in "The Plusion Play," will appear, with a strong dramatic company in the drama of "An American King." We have before us the strongest testimonials from the press of all parts of the country, and the Hon. GeoSallebury, of Fall River, Mass., after witnessing the drama, writes: "It was a pleasant surprise from first to last. An exquisite play, full of pictures of real life redolent of wit, humor, deep feeling end pathos flowing india logue, striking in effects, strong iu character and rich aituatlons—"An American King" must certainly take tbe highest rank in the new comedies of tbe day, and place Mr. Dazey in an enviable position as successful playwright. And while the "Nat Ruggles" of Mr. O Neill waa a brilliantly portrayed cuaracter. and showed an earnest and finished actoi in ita every phase and feature, it was not tbe one solitary gem of the cast Tbe company was aa a whole, as good and aa well balanced as Mr. O'Neill could have desired, or tbe author chosen to do justice to the creation to bis mind There waa nothing slipshod or trashy In it, ano tbe entire company were not only In harmony with each other, but intelligently anxious lo do justice to tbe author, and pleasure to tbe audience."

On Tuesday evening, Mr. O Neill will give hia strong personation of "Jean Renaud," in tbe celebrated drama of "A Celebrated Owe." We can safely promise our readers that no better dramatic entertainments will be given bete this winter then the two above named.

Wednesday evening tbe George H. Adams Pantomine Company will appear as "Humpty Dumpty" in what to described as "tbe new French legendary abwnrdi'y. tbe Poet-Boy of Faris,*f The De*. it Free Press nays

The pantomioe as presented by Mr. Adams is new, original and clever. abound*in ingenious 4nd effective tricks never before seen la Detroit, while its

thread of plot is interesting, offering many opportunities for pretty stage settings and good mechanical effects, which are made the roost of under the liberal management of Adaift Forepaugh. George H. Adams as the "clown," James R. Adams as "Pantaloon," Miss Jessie Garrett as "Columbine," and Wm. Eunice as "Harlequin" were all first class, working accurately and quickly together and keeping the '-business" of the piece at tbe top notch of activity from beginingtoena. In tbe second act of the pantomine, a very good list of specialty performers appear.

Next Friday eveuing Miss Jeffreys Lewis will appear in the emotional society drama, "La Belle Russe." Speakeng of its presentation in Ixuisville,the Sunday Argus says:

It was not only a surprise to those who witnessed the performance its brief engagement of three nights, but it was likewise a surprise of the most pleasant and agreeable nature. Those who had seen Miss Lewis in time past, and who remembered the vigor of her performances, were not taken aback with the powerful impression she made on her audiences but tbe play itself was a sort of revelatiou, because we had been prepared for months past, for a siege of the so-called tnelo-dramaticand sensatioual, and h'trdly expected to witness something which appealed more to the ket-n intellect and less to the 9ense of seeii .u and the art of fashion in dressmakingWhile tbe play is powerful, the star 1 the company," Miss Jeffreys Lewis, is stronger. She Is, with tho exception of Genevieve Ward, probably the boat actress of the Lady Macbeth type that lias been seen in America in tbe pa.st two years. A superb figure, graceful in poses, thoroughly understanding the little details of stago art a face that is full of cold determination and passionate intellect, with lines bard drawn, eyes that flash tire, aud a general facial expression thoroughly under control, she is just the sort of woman to make the character of Ia Bello Russe a complete success.

The only engagement for week after next Is Salvini, tbe Italian tragedian. The music of Prof. Brenig's orchestra is no small feature at tho Opera entertainments, and the publishers of the house programme will hereafter insert below the cast the selections for the evening. Last night the orchestra played:

Overture—Poet aud Peasant, Walts—Pomone (newj, Q,uadrllle— from the Merry War (new), Hong—Only a Pansy Blomom (by repuest), Selection—Gerofle Gerofla. The "Chispa" company Is said to be thoroughly demoralized by bad business In Iowa.

Alexander Saltflni is no longer playing Romeo to the Juliet of Miss Mather. Walter Evtlnge is intrusted with the work. Salvini has lost the sight of one of his eyes.

Lotta has been playing In the Hub of the Universe, and one of the Boston papers regrets that the play of "Rob" is so uninteresting, but consoles ityelf with tbe fact that when she came to "a flimsy part of the plaj'— presto a whirl, a kick, and a flash of brilliant hosiery and modernized antique lace and you forget all about It." This, from the sober minded Athens of America, is very shockingly flippant. The Boston observer of hosiery regrets that Lotta had a cold, but says It mado no differeiu-e in her success, as though any vocal ill(IIculty will ever Interfere with Lotta.
