There is a great deal of mystery about the Law and Order League, so much of it indeed that many persons do not believe there is any such organization and say that as the Express was the first to make reference to that it is nothing but a scheme of that paper, a bugaboo to scare the lawless. The fact is that the Express is barred out of it as are all the newspapers, but it is known that the league is destined to play a very important part in municipal aflairs for some time to come. The members are observing the greatest secresy as to their membership and movements and shut up like clams when a newspaper man asks questions. It has been learned, however, that the League meets every Tuesday evening and that there is a standing committee on membership reporting either favorably or adversely on names at each meeting. The League has twice voted on the proposition to make public its membership, but both times the proposition has been voted down, it being the opinion of the majority that more good can be accomplished In this way. It is said that about one third of the members are Democrats who are not averse to seeing their party defeated at the polls if, to secure law and order, it is necessary to do so. It is also understood that fully one third of the mem bars are from the best known Main street business houses and there are enough lawyers to give sufficient legal advice.
The fact has been developed the past week that when some of the Normal

But through the efforts of President Parsons, the boys escaped criminal prosecution, and calling on Mr. Davis with am-
pie apology together with $35, obtained a receipt in full satisfaction of his claim against them. While there are hundreds of dogs in this community fit subjects for tho dissecting table, the next time these young men want a subject it would be well to consult the owner. A repetition of this offense may be more serious. For it is plain larceny and the penitentiary is the punishment.

ATNA YLOB'S NEXT WEEK
Bartholmew's New Equine Paradox comprising twenty beautiful educated horses will be the next attraction at Nay lor's opera house every evening next week with two special matinees. The ladies gala souvenir matinee Wednesday, and the grand school children's matinee Saturday at 2 p. m. An erroneous impression prevails to the effect that only twoor three of the horses appear on the stage at any one time, which is not so, for the entire school of twenty horses are always on the stage in full view of the audience, and while all of them are not always performing, still they all appear together in the ensembles and the bigger features, such as the military drill, battle scene, court scene, leap frog, etc.
Professor Bartholomew is the original of this sort of entertainment and from the fact that in 1881 he was entirely penniless, and is now worth over a million dollars all made out of this present attraction you will readily believe that the Equine Paradox is the enormous success which has been claimed for it. This entertainment was presented here in '86 and was the talk of the city and it affords the Professor especial pleasure in exhibiting his horses here as every man, woman and child having seen it before knows full well the merits oi thajBntertainment. vS
Since Bartholomew's first appearance here a number of imitators have attempted to feast similiar attractions on the public, all bf them meeting with the same fate—failure, for the simple reason that no man outside of Professor Bartholomew has been discovered who educated his horses entirely by humane and scientific principles and for this he was presented with a magnificent and valuable badge from the Humane Society for the prevention of cruelty to animals from Boston, Mass. These marvelously intelligent animals give the entire performance, lasting two hours and a half, and have baei$ received with the greatest enthusiasm from all classes and elicited the most favorable comment of our leading clergyman and officers of Humane Societies. The entertainment is thoroughly refined, elevating, novel and highly instructive. Every man, woman and child in Terre Haute should attend this wonderful entertainment some time during the yeek. In order to accommodate the ladies and children, better two special matinees have been arranged. A Ladies Gala souvenier matinee Wednesday afternoon at 2 p. m., Grand special school chlldrens' matinee at 2 p. m. School tickets will be distributed to the children. Let every child secure one of these tickets. For the matinee seats may be secured at Button's without any extra charge. 'J

The forty-fifth anniversary of the Vigo County Bible Society will be held at the Fir-ft Presbyterian church on Sunday even i''g at 7:30. Rev. W. J. Vigus, district superintendent of Indiana for American Bible Society will address thq meeting. It will be a Union service of the various Evangelical churches. An interesting program of music and speeches will be arranged, and the occasion, as in other years, will undoubtedly be entertaining and profitable. The Bible work is entirely unsectarian.

ABOUT DOO&
A barking dog never bites, that is to say, when he begins to bite he stops barking.
The hair of a dog will cure his bite. This is a enreious superstition among the hare-brained young men who are fast going to the dogs.
Dogs are dentists by profession. They insert teeth without charge.
The dog never barks
except when he is awake. He.is always awake. Dogs are not always kind, though there are many kinds of dogs.
Every dog has his day, although dogdavs last but a few weeks in the year. 'fray was a good dog, but three is worse than the deuce when it is against you.
But perhaps I had better paws here, for the papers have said enough about dogs this week, and tell the readers of The Mail that E. R. WTright,at the White Front grocery has Extra Nice Lettuce, Hubbard Squash, Pheasant, Venison Dressed Young Turkeys, Dressed Ducks, Chickens, Oysters, Spare Ribs, Tenderloins, Choice Hams, Fresh Eggs, Country and Jersey Butter, Celery, Cranberries, Oranges, Lemons, Bananas, Michigan Apples.
