THE _MAIL.
A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
The frost was morning.
The contract for the roof of the Gov\r eminent building has been let to Collings A Ohm, of this city, and Superintendent Havens says this portion of the work will be completed before cold weather. i!
Jt is stated that when A. Here gets into his new store he will have the largest space (13,125 square feet) occupied by an exclusive ladies' furnishing house in the United States in any city under 200,000 inhabitants. ,,
The colored people on Wednesday right royally celebrated Emancipation day, which to them is far greater day than our Fourth of July. The procession was imposing and the exercises at Hulman park of an interesting charac-
ter*
The trial of Charley Roberts, the Parke county burglar, was commenced in the •Circuit couft yesterday morning, before Judge Mack and a jury. This is his second trial for the offense. On the former trial he was sent to the penitentiary for seven years.
The store room Recently vacated by Mr. Kivitts is having an extensive addition put on the rear and will be occupiod by R. R. Toel A J3ro., who are making a good move in getting their hardware store around on Main street, although they have been very successful on Fourth streot. .... .,
That day is indeed a remarkable one which bring* with it no war or rumors of Avar on Wall street or thereabouts. Together with fights between attorneys, sidowalk squabbles between a dignitidd judge and newspaper reporters, etc., Wall street has certainly done its share in furnishing tho public with news this week. Tho striking fact in connection with these aflYays is that no one is seriously injured.
Work at the river gas woll has been brought to a'serious stop by some 1,700 loot or iron easing falling into the hole. Tho fall was about 250 feet, caused by one of the sections splitting and tho sections of pipe are telescoped, completely stopping tho flow of water, which, when tiie casing was being lowered, rose to the top of tho derick, Suporlntendont I)iall went to Indianapolis for special itools to fish for the pipe.
If the word received from different localities in western Indiana and eastern Illinois can be taken as indicating tho number of stranger* that will bo hero on tho day of tho President's visit, Torre Ilaute will have within its borders at least 50,000 moro persons that its population. In tho Illinois counties southwest •of here, down toward Egypt, about every man is preparing to come. Clarke county will bo depopulated on that day and Sullivan county in this State is expected to pour over the borders of Vigo a solid mass of humanity. The crowd will be •as woll worth seeing as tho l'rosident.
Sovoral fires have occurrod this week, the most serious being tho burning of Charles Zimmerman's overall factory, in the Koopman block, Sixth street, on Wednesday morning. Good work by tho lire department saved the building, but the tiro department saved the building, but the tire, smoko and water greatly damaged the stock, to what extent Is not yet ascertained. Fully 400 girls and women are thrown out of work for a week or two. There was $2K,000 insurance on tho stock and $4,000 on the building which will cover the loss.
The old rickety livery stoblo on Walnut street was burned last night about s« von o'clock, and shortly after the defartmont made a ruu to the Salvation army barracks, whore a defective flu© required a few buckets of water.
Tho oflleial schcdulo of tho President's trip to the west is "published and by it the disputed time of his departure from Indianapolis is settled. He with leave thore next Saturday afternoon at three o'clock. As the train will make no stops it will roach here a few| minutes before five o'clock. The time for leaving here is set for U5 p. m. so the presidential jparty will 'make a stay of nearly an ihour and a half—sufficient for the program laid out by the committee of arrangements. Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland will be accompanied by no officials, the other members of the party being the president's private secretary, Colonel iAtnont and two personal friends of the president, Mr. Wilson S. Bissell, of IJuftalo, N. Y., his former law partner, and Mr. Joseph IK Brvaut, of New York, who was a member of his military staff while governor.
Dan Lamont, the President's private secretary, telegraphed Mayor Kolsem yesterday that the President will arrive her# at 4:30 p. m. and leave at 6:15. President McKeen says the track will be cleared of all other trains from Indianapolis here, and if the parly should be delayed here the same will be done on the west end of the road until Use time la made up.

THREE HAUTE SATURDAY
The Wrought Iron Ranee. Mr. J. E, Massengill, resident superintendent of St. Louis, Is in oar midst to introduce the "Home Comfort" wrought iron range. He.comes with the endorsement of some of the best citizens of Greene and Sullivan counties, who have had dealings with him and his company. We are personally acquainted with some of the gentlemen who reocommend him and his wares, and know they would not allow their names lised in anything that was not exactly as represented. The company manufacturing ranges has paid up a capital of $500,000, and directly and indirectly employs over a thousand men. ^Their purchases of maleable iron in Indiana alone amount to $250,000 a year. It is in a measure an Indiana company, Mr. L. L. Culver, of Lake Maxinkuckee, being its president. The company employs no agents on commission, but sells direct to tho people, taking the ranges direct to the farmers in six large wagons. The large number of sales made to leading citizens of Sullivan and adjoining counties attest the excellent features of the "Home Comfort." The canvas in this county, will be made under the supervision of Mr. A. J. Fuller.
