THE JVIAIL

A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLI

Twelve pages of The Mail this week.

"The event of the century," to be enjoyed "once in a life time," is with us to-day.

The crowds will come very near ruining the yard at the Normal school this afternoon, but everything goes, with a real live President in the city.

There have Ibeen more marriages the past week than in any previous week this year. The good times are certainly coming, if they arc not here already.

In publishing notices of funerals it should be stated at which cemetery interment will occur, in order that persons attending in ay make arrangements accordingly.

Sant C. Davis went up to Maxinkuckee yesterday to look at the ruins of his cottage, which was burned on Thursday afternoon. The building cost $1,200 and was ful'y insured. Very little of the furnitare was saved.

Every possible effort will be made to feed the multitude to-day. There will be no lack of drink. Our beer saloons are countless in number, well stocked and equal to any emergency. What a harvest they will gather, to be sure.

The trial of Con Callahan, who shot Harmon, has engaged tho Circuit court all this week and will probably not gp to the jury before next Tuesday. The effort of the defense is to show that it was the doctors killed Harmon instead of Callahan's bullet.

Edwin Johnson, who had the fearful fall last week from the third story of the building now being remodelled for Mr. Here, is improving rapidly and will recover. He says Howard, the colored man, threw his hod at him and knocked him from the scaffold. Howard is still in jail.

There will be a "Round Table" conference of the C. L. 8. C., at the Sunday schoolroom of the Congregational church next Tuesday evening, to which all members and friends of the C. L. S. C. and all others Interested in the Chautauquaimovement are invited. An interesting programme of music, papers and addresses will be given, Including a Chautauqua Vesper Service.

Chauncey Twaddle missed his guess on the August freshet, and the Wabash has been so low that the almost constant rain of the past week has failed to make much of a change in the stage of water It Is well enough for the reputation of the Wabash that the President will leave here after dark to-night. The sight of vtho Insignificant stream it is now would •destroy its classic reputation.

'.Tames M. Donaghoe, the younger brother of Will Donaghoe, of the National State bank, this city, died In St. Louis last Saturday. Ho was born, raised and educated in this city, and was one of the brightest of tho many boyB who have gone out to seek position and fortune. Ho had been an invalid for two years, and It is said that ambition and hard work in railroad circles, where he had gal nod high position, has lod to his death at the early age of twenty-six years.

The citizens In tho middle portion of the Thiid ward are protesting against the bad smells that come from tho

Sheets

street sower, but those who live in the immediate vicinity of the gas well would doubtless be willing to tradesinells with them. When the old artesian well took the contract of perfuming that part of of tho cit.y, those who had to endure it thought It was pretty bad. Since the new gas well has added Its quota to the volume of perfume tloating arohnd there tho residents have about made up their mind that there is nothing worse than tho smell from two gas wells—unloss it be that from three of them.

It will bo well for our people to see that thoir houses are securely fastened before they start to "see the President" this afternoon. Thero will be a great many sneak thieves attracted here today by the splendid opportunltles afford«d them to ply their trade. The police "will have their hands full to-day in handling the crowds along the line of march, and every citi*en should for the time being transform himself Into a detective and see that his own and his neighbors' premises are secure. These same sneak thieves and burglars will work the city forall it Is worth to-night, and precautlons^should be taken against them. _____

When uncle Alex McPheeters *«nt to the First National bank to draw the $2,000 to give to the confidence man who had personated Mr. Frank McKeeu, the bank folks thought there was something wrong and tried to learn what the old gentleman intended doing with the money. Henry Iteming plied him with questions but all the answer he got was that the money was wanted to make a legal tender in a real estate transaction. Indeed, the old gentleman insisted on having the *2,000 in greenbacks, that is legal tender, government money. .Mr. Doming wanted to go with him, bat the old gentleman was true to his promise made to the confidence man not to let any one know of the transaction. There are somethings past finding oat and one of them is how a man oapable of accumulating as much wealth as this Honey creek farmer possessed, could yet be a dupe of so transparent a conttence game. We can only account for it in the supposition that Uncle Aleck doesn't reed the papers, which have hundreds of times expoeed just such tricks.

I It is a fact not generally known that the credit for putting into motion the plan to have President Cleveland here, should be given to W. O. Fishback, editorof the Express. When the announcement was made that the Presieent would visit St. Louis Mr. Fishback surmised that he would probably pass through here, and he at once laid the matter before the Business Men's Association, and the reception was arranged as to details. With fair weather there would have been no end to the number of visiters here, and as it is thousands of visitors are here with plenty of money to spend and our business men will reap a rich harvest.

The biggest and best feature we have to record this week is the re-organization of the Sandford Tool Company, by which the capital stock is increased from $100, 000 to 150,000. Among the new stockholders are Messrs. H. Hulman, D. W. Minshall, Josephus Collett, Willard Kidder, Anton Myer, and W. R. McKeen. Mr. Robert Nixon remains as president of the company. Mr. Henry Deming is to be treasurer and will retire as cashier of the First National bank in a month or six weeks. The original capacity of the tool works will be doubled, many of the' big buildings having already been extended to twice the first length. It is expected the works will be in operation by the 15th of this month.

v__"

After all the heat and suffering of the past summer and the amount of sickness caused thereby, it seems that there was but one more death during the months'of July and August of the present year than during the corresponding months of 1886. According to the superintendent of the cemeteries, there were buried in Woodlawn in July, of last year, 36, and in Highland Lawn, 3, or 39 in all. In August last year the total for both cemeteries was 38 or 77 interments for both months. In July, this year, the number was 50 and in August, but 28, or 78 for two months. Considering that these are two of the most sickly "months in tho year, this Is rather a good showing. The city must be in a tolerably good sanitary condition, else the jfleath record would have«been more.appalling.

NA YLOR'S OPERA HOUSE. "FA5CTA8MA. "An Immense audience, many having to stand, filled the opera house last night. Delight, laughter and applause attended the production of Hanlon's Fantasma. The piece has been greatly changed and much improved since it was last seen here, only the striking features of the old production have been retained and in the place of those discarded are many novelties and striking effects. The finale of the first act, "the bottom of the sea," representing a sub-marine scene, is a marvel of stage realism and effectiveness. Nothing finer than it has ever been seen here. The sword combat was another great feature and throughout the piece there is a succession of surprises in the way of mechanical effects, stage tricks and devices. All the scenery is new from beginning to end, and the transformations, four in number, especially the last one, are elaborate and beautifuL Taken as a whole the scenic mounting of "Fantasma" has never before been equalled here. The company this season includes a number of new and clever people. Miss Laura Burt, who plays "Fantasma" Is not only a good actress, but an excellent singer and her songs, especially the typical ditty, made a great hit. ThePhoitus, help materially to make the" performance a success. The leading parts were assumed by Charles H. Riegol, Louis Piaarello, an excellent olown and the original Pico, Miss Ida Maussey, Miss Rose Forte and Miss Kittie Westover, two attractive and talented young ladies, Mr. A. C. Orcutt, who sang very sweetly, and others. They are, in all, fojty people in her cast, and they have evidently been carefully selected. The hit made by this performance last night insures a large audience to-night, when the last performance will be given.

E. M. Wall A Co. are doing a very large share of the picture framing in this city, because of their low prices and elegant mouldings. Of these they haye the largest stock ever carried in this city.

WVlf* §1 Biff Crowds. There is a big crowd in town to-day, and there was a big crowd yesterday at A. H. Boegeman's. Those who passed bis Shoe store on south Fourth street, noticed the lively gait at which the corps of clerks moved. It was a rush. Mr. Boegeman has just the goods for ladles, misses and children, and not only extra foot-wear but popular prices. His late goods take the lead in style, material and price. The truth of the matter is Mr. Boegeman knows how to buy to suit the tastes of everybody, and conseqently a stock of goods does not remain very long in his house to become shelf-worn. Just drop in and see for yourself.

At the*recent County Fair the Wabash Manufacturing Company offered a premium for the best made half dozen overalls. The lady who took the premium made them on The WHITE Sewing Machine.
