understood that Mr. Blaine

WILL

make one speech in Chicago and preparations are under

way to

give him a great

demonstration. It is safe to predict that it will be a "rOuaer."

faat mail has been put on be­

tween Chicago and New York which makes the trip in 27 hours. That is about six hours quicker than the old schedule and is remarkable time for a mail service. ___

GILBERT and Sullivan's new opera, "The Yeoman of the Guard/' was presented for the first time at the Savoy Theatre, London, Thursday night, before an immense audience. Ten thous and people would have been there if there had been room for them. The opera is pronounced "one of the finest.

IT U» funny to hear the Democrats talk about carrying Illinois this year. Illinois is always a Republican state but this year in particular large gains for that party are reported on the issue of free trade vs. protection. It is also claimed that many Prohibitionists will vote for Harrison. The sucker State will not bo Democratic—not this year.

THE one issue in this campaign is the wage issue. It will not be obscured by any other. Every worklngman must know that with European wages we can produce any article iu the United States as cheaply as it can be produced across the sea. Th* question Is, do we want cheap things in that way? The workingmen will decide it with their ballots.

MONSTER

meeting will be that of

next Thursday at Indianapolis on the occasion of the visit of James G. Blaiio. Ho will 1)0 accompanied by the Levi^ P. Morton, Chauney M. DePew, Gov. Foraker, Gen. Ilovey, and other distinguished Republican speakers. There will bo a day parade of the clubs, together with an industrial display, and fireworks ut night. The railroads will give very low excursion ratos, with tickets good to return next day.

IT IS now regarded as certain that the present coin crop will not fall short of two billion bushels, the greatest crop ovor raised. The figures are so enormous that it is impossible to reallso them without the aid of illustration. Two billion bushels of corn, then, means 88hi bushels for every man, woman and child in tho Ulilted States, or 200 bushels for every family of six persons. It seems incredible that so much corn could be grown in a singlo season. Yet that Is what tho American farmers have done In tho summer of 18*8.

TIIK demoralising effects of bottlng on horse racing are increasing. It is estimated that §.1(5,000,000 a voar Is spent by people in tho vicinity of New York in railroad fares, admission to races and bets on horses, the latter Wing by far tho largest account. Those figures Indicate tho extent to which tho turf has developed as a gambling agency. Tho race track has grown to be ft great gambling institution, by the side of which faro banks are comparatively insignificant and harmless. The thousands who love tho sport for its own sake have occasion for deep regret that it Is so and demand that the laws against gambling on the race track shall bo vigorously enforced. __________________

TIIK Mall hasmore than onee expressed the belief that gas of some kind or another was destined to lie the fuel of the future. The natural gas found within the earth already prepared to man's hand has pointed the way to a cheaper and better fuel and the probability that the natural product may in time become exhausted, as well as the limited territory In which I has boon found, have stimulated Inventive talent to devise a substitute. Various methods of mak ing cheap artificial gas have been discovered and it Is claimed that recent experiment* of Pittsburg demonstrate that oil-gas fuel can be produced which is even cheaper than natural gas. The gas is tho product of a combination of superheated steam and air, with a very small percentage of crude petroleum oil

The gas may be used both for fuel and light and the apparatus required for its manufacture is said to bo very simple so that It can be made for domestic use If the claims made for the new discovery can be substantiated there is fair promise that the fuel problem has been practically solved.

Dr. RichardsotTa»d Dr. Hammond are getting so mo notoriety by opposing capful punishment by electricity. They svor that there is danger that the crim­

inal not

be killed by the shock, and

may even recover after burial. These objections are sufficiently answered by an English scientist who has experimented on calves and fowls. The death was at way* instantaneons and unquestionable. He conclude® that "a rtaah rightly directed would kill a mammoth instantly, it the tension of the Induced current Is high." Death is instantaneous and painless." "I new observed any eflfUslon oV»lood or other symptoms of the shock." The change is desirable not at all on eceountof the criminal* but for the nake of the living actor*. Hanging is a brataliatng aflkir. Capital punishment should be ateret, with the lew•at possible witnesses.

UTAH.

Two reports come from the Utah commission. The first to reach the public eye and ear was that of the minority, who pictured Mormonism in rosy colors. According to these gentlemen the Saints are being pressed with unnecessary vigor by the Federal authorities. Let Polygamy alone, they say, and it will soon die a natural death. All it wants is a little leisure in which to give up the ghost. It is unpopular and becoming more so all the time. No need to make any ado over an institution that is already doomed. 8p argue the minority of the Commission. But the majority see the case differently. They insist that Statehood be denied the Territory until the Mormons shall have proved their abondonment of polygamy in good faith. This they have not done yet, for the Governor has been prohibited by the Territorial Legislature from exercising his legal authority to appoint selectman, clerks and other officers. The beautiful spirit of obedience spoken of by the minority is not clearly visible in these unlawful proceedings. Various other circumstances are related tending to show that the Mormon church is committed to a policy destructive of the public school system in Utah.

Putting both documents together it seems pretty evident that the vigorous enforcement of the Federal laws against Polygamy has had a most beneficient effect and that the same policy if continued will ultimately make an end of the twin relic."

AN ARMY OF IDLERS. It is said there are more idle men in Chicago now than was ever known before. Tho number is placed at 40,000 and is made up of mechanics, artisans and general laborers who, for one reason or another, have nothing to do. More than that, there is reason to believe that at least 10,000 more will be added to this number before winter fairly sets in, as the trains bring in constantly now recruits from the rural districts who seek fame and fortune in the groat city. They know nothing of tho requirements of city life, find overy occupation crowded to overflowing, and all too often fall In with bad company and evil ways. Their money is quickly exhausted and although without resources, or any way of gaining a livelihood, the glare and glitter of the brilliaut metropolis has a fascination for them and they aro reluctant to go back to the quiet ways they have left. Some of them join the ranks of evil-doers and ply tho work of thieves or burglars until the heavy hand of the law chances to fall on thom.

A significant fact in this connection is that the great army of idlers contains very few skilled workmen in any lino and of theso nearly all the unemployed are drunkards. Mechanics who are sober and industrious never need to be long out of employment. For this reason there is nothing better for a boy than sotno good trade.

A RUMP CONOR MS.

Tho present session of Congress has been tho longest one in the history of the country. The longest preceeding one was that of 18o0, when the session draggedl along to Sept. 30, but the present one hus already gone that a week bettor and the end Is not in sight yet.

It has not been a session characterized by diligent work. There has boon much dawdling and trilling for political effect. The elaboration of the Mills bill has been tho chief thing accomplished and that has been no "great shakes." Most of the senators are still in Washington but tho members of the House are scattered over the country, looking after their political fences and drawing pay from the national committees as orators at large. There is important business yet to be done but there has not been a quorum in the Ilonso for weeks.

This long session is liable to have a bad effect upon the country. Cases of this kind are apt to bocome precedents for the future and there is danger that we may in time run into continuous sessions of Congress. The best legislative bodies are those which are shortand hard-working.

The American Statesman series shows no more interesting data than the com parative wealth of the Presidents of the United Statee on leaving office. Wash ington left office worth $80,000, but no one ever accused him of either parsimony, or of dishonorable methods. John Adams had but little property, although by no means poor. Jefferson was absolutely impoverished, and was obliged to beg Congress to relieve him by purchasing his books. Madison was well off, but Monroe, like Jefferson, was miserably poor. John Quincy Adams was, for those days, wealthy, and Jackson was at least comfortably fixed. Van Buren and Polk were in moderate circumstances, and Taylor was worth $li5,000. Fillmore left a fine estate in Buffalo, which was quickly scattered. Pierce was worth $45,000 Buchanan, 9300,000

Lincoln, $50,000, and Johnson the same. The times considered, Washington was the wealthiest. Grant's circumstances are well known.

TEHRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING- ATL.

Hie American publishers of Zola's new work, "Le Reve" (The Dream)* have issued a circular declaring it tb be a book fit to be put into the hands of girls. If that's the case it won't sell. Works fit for the hands of girls sell well enough, but a work of that kind from Zola won't go. last work, "La Terre" (The Earth), was deodorized and expurgated in the edition printed in this country, and the result was that it was comparatively a failure. People who wanted it at all insisted on the full translation, which was issued across the water. No, if

The love which a true horseman holds for his horses is sometimes greater than that which others manifest for their wives. Who ever heard of any husband in his will providing for his partner in life's harness as Frank Worth has done for his hortfes, Edward and Dick Swiveler? Should Worth die before his famous horses, at one time the fastest team in tho world by record, they are never to have harness put on them again but they are to be taken good care of, on a farm, till each one dies a natural death. The provisions of the will are ample, and the horses aro to have the attention of kind grooms, for which he provides. On the whole our relation to the animal world calls out and develops some of the best features of humanity. Horse racing has its decided amenitios. Kindness to animals is a marked feature of our latest civilization.

Dr. Sail (a lady) at the meeting of the Social Science Association gave a realistic picture of tho sanitary conditions of country houses, The paper should be circulated as a tract. She gave the story of sixty-five houses, w-liich she had critically examined from a health point of viow. All of them were unsanitary, in one or more of the following way: Slops wore thrown about the doors wells unprotected from surface drainage sleeping rooms on the first floor bed rooms that the sun could never ponetrate, or dark altogether pig stys and other nuisances in close contiguity to the house. One critic added, lugubriously, that the paper was right, but people would go on wrong all the same. Ho thought they might waken up to their situation when they died, and found what and killed thom. Ou the whole, it was the only thing to be done in tho case. He may be right. But it is well enough for sensible people, like Dr. Hall, to goon giving them no excuse for dying of filth and folly.

BETTING ON ELECTIONS. [Ind. News.] The papers of both the leading parties in the pending National contest publish, as a matter of entertaining news the bets made by adventurous gentlemen on either side, and occasional propositions inviting bets on special terms. In fact, betting is made about as prominent a feature of the contest as the muster roll of party desertions and acquisitions. Some of our contemporaries, supposed to exteud their omniscience to wagers as well as other matters of political interest, are occasionally asked to disentangle betting perplexities that incautious partisans have got mixed up with. It uever seems to occur to anybody concerned in those speculations that wagers ou elections are oriminal acts, subject to a penalty of very great severity. The misdemeanor" act of 1867, still the law -but of as little use as "the laws of the Medes and Persians"—says that "whoever loses or wins anything of value by playing or betting upon any game or wager, or upon the result of any election, shall be fined in any sum not less than the value of the articles so lost or won, nor exceeding twice the value thereof.

Every man who makes or takes a bet on the coming election is an offender against the law, and liable to indictment, conviction and punishment. It is no credit to the State or its courts that betting on elections is carried on as openly and safely as any honorable business.

A WOMAN OF HER WORJ). [Wichita (Kan.) Dispatch] When the husband of Mrs. Mary Elmer failed to go home Wednesday night she surmised that he had been In a leading illegal liquor saloon. Arming herself with an ax, she went to the place Friday morning. She had told the dealer that if he sola her husband any more liquor ehe would break up his place, rindmg the door locked, she broke it djwn with the ax, broke open an inner I door and drove the bar-keeper from tbe b. In one of tbe rooms Mrs. Elmer her husband drunk. This infuriated heriM'.i r•»*, and she broke the glass in th Mr rwwtn, all the windows and tbe fnr:t When she had compi iy wrecked the place, she gave tbe husband a Vw cufik, marched r, i, :ne and administered a first-class Hogging with a buggy whip.

KEEP COOL. fl

v.* Philadelphia Times, Keop cool all the time in politics. The campaign is growing hot, but it's only the politicians and their henchmen who are excited. The people are as calm as a summer morn, and they won't be ruffled by bands, clubs, cheers or party orders.

Keep cool to-night. Leaders are wrestling for prestige and power and dependents will froth and fume and lose their tempers, but what good would result from a few scores of bloody noses or cracked pates? Keep cool all the time

Son't

Dream" is what its publishers

say, it will be a drug instead of a dream.

Frank Stockton, in St. Nicholas, enlarges on the politeness with which a traveler meets in some parts of Europe. Ape/son will not unfrequently accompany a stranger without pay to assist him in finding streets, stores, etc., and to assist in the selectiou of articles to be purchased. The habit is growing on young Americans not to be willing to do anything without a cash compensation. Courtosy is not a national characteristic. It should enter into our system of training. The amenities or civilization are no less important than the enterprises. It is not altogether the accumulations that contributue wealth, but the ability to use our accumulations for peace and oomfort. We have two great lessons to learn: Economy of the Chinese and courtesy of the French.

for your man with a good will, but forget that ill-temper is short lived and that those who tight to-day may be friends next time.

Keep cool to save your time and money in politics. There* are thousands of party bummers who want to lay iu their winter pork and cdal and want free drinks while they are doing it at the expense of their party, and it is only by the wild hurjah and pomp of a campaign that geuerally sensible men lose their heads and gfve their money to maintain political hangers-on.

Keep cool for your own peace and comfort. The man who loses equanimity iu politics, offends his best friends, disgraces himself as a bigot and proves himself generally the petty plaything of political gougers. His peace at home, nis peace at business, his peace atchurch. and his peace everywhere, are idiotically sacrificed to please and pay professional politicians and mendicants.

Keep cool for the sake of decent respect foi law and order. It won't uiskea farthings difference to ninety-nine hundreths of tho people whether llarrison or Cleveland snail be elected Presideut. Tho people will take good care of their government and their rulers all the same, no matter who's elected, and the Republic will be prosperous at home and honored abroad whether its Harrison or Cleveland. Keep cool.

ON THE LECTURE PLATFORM. [New York Mail and Express.] "Great changes have taken place," said the Secretary of the New York Lecture Bureau to-day, "in the lecture platform. Who have gone, do you ask? Once it was all Beecher, the eloquent C'hapin, the grand Gough, the earnest Saxe, the witty Phillips, the silvertongued Nasby, Josh Billings and Artemus Ward, the funny Bayard Taylor, the traveler Dr. Hayes, the explorer: B. F. Taylor, the word painter, and Colfax, the'smiling, but tliey are all gone now," and tbe Secretary heaved a sigh of regret. "What lecturers aro loft?" "Well, there aro George W. Curtis and Carl Schurz and Tilton Murdock, Brot Harte, Mark Twain, Ann Eliza Young, and Anna Dickinson, but they don't lecture any more. They pleaded age and infirmity, and a new set of entertainers have sprung up." "Who are the new ones?" "Let's see there is Sam Jones, the sin destroyer Joseph Cook, the orthodox Jngorsoll, tho agnostic Will Carleton, the farm poet Eli Perkins tbe platform humorist James Whitcouib Riley, the poetical dialectician Wilder, Lincoln and Burbank, the delineator Mrs. Livermore, the earnest Wattorson and Saui Cox, the politicians Nye the eccentric Burdotte, the witty, and Lyman Abbott, the solid. "Who are drawing the-audiences?" "It is the best entertainer. The people want entertainment and instruction combined. Joseph Cook will draw a theological seminary, but Talmage and Sam Jones and tho humorists draw everywhere. The humorists like Burdetto and Ell Perkins go back to the same audiences year after year." "What are tho lecturers to talk about this year?" "George Kennan will talk about Siberia, Charles Dickens, Jr., will read his father's stories, Kate Field will recommend California wine, Wilietts will discuss 'That Bov Sister,' Dr. Collver will give us 'Grit,' and Burbank will read Mark Twain's, Nasby's and Eli Perkins' okes. Lew Wallace will tell about

Turkish harems, Dougherty will orate on Daniel O'Conuell, and Tanner will tell war stories."

A STRIKING PICTURE-A REVIVAL OF OLD TIME SIMPLICITIES. In one of Harper's issues is given a very fine illustration of Roberts' celebrated painting, known as "Doctoring Old Time." It represents a typiual oldtimer, with his bellows blowing the dust from an ancient clock, with its cords and weights carefully secured.

Oue of these clocks in this generation is appreciated only as a rare relic. The suggestive name, "Doctoring Old Time," brings to our mind another version of the title, used for another purpose,—"Old Time Doctoring."

We learn, through a reliable source, that one of the enterprising proprietary medicine firms of the country, has been for vears investigating the formulas and medical preparations used in the beginning of this century, and even before, with a view of ascertaining why people in our great-grandfathers time enjoyed health and physical vigor so seldom found in the present generation. They now think they have secured the secret of secrets. They find that the prevailing opinion that then existed, that "Nature has a remedy for every existiug disorder," was true, and acting under this belief, our grandparents used the common berbe aud plants. Continual trespass upon the forest domain, has made these herbs less abundant and has driven them further froia- civilization, until they have beeu discarded, as remedial agents because of the difficulty of obtaining them.

H. H. Warner, proprietor of Warner's safe cure and fouuder of the Warner observatory, Rochester, N. Y., has been pressing investigations in this direction, into the ani.als of old family histories, until he has secured some very valuable formulas, from which his firm is now preparing medicines to be sold by all druggists.

They will, we learn, be known under general title of "Warner's Log Cabin emedies." Among these remedies will be a "sarsaparilla, for the blood and liver, "Log Cabiu hops and buchn remedy," for the stomach, etc., "Log Cabin cough and consumption remedy/' "Log Cabin hair tonic," "Log Cabin extract," for internal and external use, and an old valuable discovery for catarrh, called

Log Cabin rose cream." Among the list is also a "Log Cabin plaster," and a Log Cabin liver pill."

has become tirod of modern doctoring and the public has great confidence in any remedies put up by the firm of wliich H, H. Warner is at the head. The people have become suspicious of tho effects of doctoring with poisonous drugs, f'ew realize the injurious effects following tho prescriptions of many modern physicians. Those effects of poisonous drugs, already prominent, will become more pronouncoa in coining generations. Therefore we can cordially wish tho old-fashioned new remedies ttyo best of success.
