A PAPER

One of our *hoe men says that half of the repairing of shoe uppers that come him is made necessary by the excossive use of blacking. The ordinary blacking compounds are injurious to leather, even when used sparingly, and when the leather dosed the effect must be disastrous. Shoos would wear much longer if ihe blacking applied were hotter. The excessive use of blacking grows out of the excessive dust. After a thick coating of blacking and a good polish have been put on shoes, It Is nothing unusual to have it spoiled by dust In a short walk. In such cases, ten chances to one, tho wearer will daub on a lot more of blacking, giving tho leather an unnecessary layer of It. All this can lie avoided by the use of a moist sponge, which dampens the blacking already on the leather and does not make necessary another application. With the sponge several "shines" can lie got out of a single application of blacking, and at the same time dust will 1M wiped ofl'and the leather generally cleaned effectively. So said the shoe man.

A physician in making a social call on The Mail yesterday remarked as he no ticed a couple of ladles passing, their jaws vigorously at work, that victims of the chewing-gum habit sometimes apologize for thepraciieo by asserting that it

is wholesome, and is an actual aid to digestion. Any well-informed physiologist, said he, will deny this at once, chewing-gun"! pn tluces a How of saliva into the stomach at a time when it Is not noeded by that org «n. This saliva burdens the stomach nd forcos it to abnormal action to got rid of It, and as the salivary glands are robbed of the secretion, and obliged to do double work to produce the saliva necessary for mastication so far as tho stomach is concerned, ••hewing gnm i» as Injurious as chewing to!'act"-

WOMAN SUFFRAGE CONVENTION. At its annual meeting, held in Indianapolis last May, the Indiana National Woman Suffrage association announced that it would hold a convention in each of the thirteen congressional districts of this state during the autumn and wintei of 1887. The meeting for this district will be held at the Opera House on the 22nd and 23d of this month. The circular announcing meetings states that thr primary object in holding these conventions at this time is to organize the suffrage sentiment in every congressional district in the state in such a manner that it can be effectually used to Influence the men who will represent Indiana in the Fiftieth congress. The sixteenth amendment which was brought to vote in the United States senate (during the last session of the Forty-hinth congress, will be brought before the Fiftieth congress as soon as that body shall convene.

A secondary reason for holding these conventions is that with a year's time for work the Suffragists of the different coun ties may organize their forces in a way that will tell on the character and condact of the next state legistature. Municipal, school and presidential. suffrage will besought at the hands of the next legislature. The probabilities of success will be greatly enhanced if tbe friends of suffrage thus early unite in a vigorous effort to increase and crystalize the suffrage sentiment in the state

Helen M. Gougar, of Lafayette, is pres ident of the State association, and Mrs, Ida A. Harper, of this city is secretary

Miss Susan B. Anthony Mrs. Zerelda G. Wallace and other effective speakers and organizers will be here, and the meetings will doubtless be of much in tetost.

NA YLOR'S OPERA HOUSE.

One of the most interesting weeicsm tho amusement line, in which we have had tbe spectacular, comedy and opera of tho highest class, .will close to-night with a dramatic company presenting for the first time here Frank Harvey's poworful drama, "Woman against Woman." At the head of the sterling com any is Effle Ellsler, who is best known here as tho original "Hazel Kirke," a character whose womanliness and sweetbrought name and fame to the Madison Squaro Theater. Her new character, Bessie Barton is said to be such as will add more laurels to her already acquired fame. The play is simple and earnost^comedy and pathos being beautifully blended. The opera house ought to be tilled full to-night.

Wilson A Rankin's minstrels will appear on Monday evening, and we are told with everything new from the rise to the fall of the curtain. George Wilis a great favorite hero. He is a comedian of original powers and always lias something fresh. Schoolcraft and Coes, a strong pair, are with the party, and the inging feature is said to be remarkably tine. Instead of tlio usual first part the curtain rises upon a garden scene, and the mlustrels are introduced whenever It is convenient. When the entire party is assemblod upon the stago the regular programme of songs and jokes follows. Says Mr. Burt Davis, the press agent: No species of vulgarity is allowed, no jokes are told that depend upon double entendro as a substitute for wit, and the strictest discipline is rigidly enforced. High salaried aud accomplished gentlemen, both socially and professionally, are omployed, and by such arrangements the acme of refined entertainments are reached.

Jennie Yeamans, a piquant young actress, coines ou Thursday evening with her now play "Our Jennie," which the St. Louis Post-Dispatch tells us is bright and crisp, and in it Miss Yeamans finds ample room to display her versatilo and original genius. She Introduces a nuiner of new and original songs and picks tho banjo in a nimble, artistic way. She is a cute little mite, full of life and chic. She has a pleasing voice, a bewildering smile, and promises to become a prime favorite, The scenes of the play are laid in Bay Ridge, New York, a village not far from New York City. The company supporting the little actress is a good one, every member being well up in their parts and business.
