A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

Notes and Comment.

But one brief year, then hail the nineties. 1889. How old this old world is getting to be!

It is all very nice to have a mild winter but where is the crop of ice to come from for next summer?

Have you sworn off? If not, there are probably a good many things that you could swear off from to advantage.

Francis Murphy never struck a more promising field for temperance work than this wide open town of Terre Haute, just at "swearing off" time.

It is noted that the mild winter has made southern travel unusually light. When one can have a llorida winter at home there is no use going South for it.

The Pennsylvania coal kings have concluded that it would be inexpedient to advance the price of coal at present, bhould smile that It would—smile 11 over. j^y Gould tp&de each one of his children1a Christinas present of $100,000. Yet there are many children in the land who were made happier by receiving a new doll ot a pair of skates.

Dakota celebrated New Year's day with picnics and outdoor sports, with the thdrmometor at 66 in the shade. Gee-whlal What must it be in summer up there when it is 65 in the shade in January? We fear that Dakota is overdoing the thing.

It was a pretty fair eclipse, as eclipses go, but it cou'x4n't hold a candle to that magnificent ort» we had in 1869, when the chickens' weht to roost and the birds flew about wildly in the middle of the afternoon. That was an eclipse to be remembered.

It looks as if we shall have to give up the idea that publif offices are mere sinecures. Everybody knows by this time that tho President is a hard-worked man and that it is no fuu to to fill a Congressman's place and do the work that he ought to do, and now comes the chief Justice of Montato and resigns his honorable office because its duties are too burdensome and ho prefers going back to the practice at the bar. It is even intimated that there are postmasters and some other holders of public trust who earn all the money thoy get. If this thing keeps on it will soon be that the olllces will have to hunt for men to fill them.

So many people think missionary and charity \frork are only to be done among the poor, but this is a mistake. As you go about among your well-to-do friends you cannot fail to notice that they need missionaries too, though they do not know it. The

body

Is clothed and fed,

but their souls and minds are starving for snnshine, for intellectural cheer and refreshment, for uplifting, too, as well as the rest. Perhaps they don't know it, and we wouldn't tell them how much they need somebody wiser than they are somebody better than they are somebody brighter, more merry and sweeter of soul than they are, to give them a "twist up" and sooth away the fret of life. It is strange how precious a thing a laugh is. If you make anybody laugh heartily they will thank you. The papers that we read are the funny papers* The speakers that please are those that make us laugh as well as cry. A real good joke is a possession worth more than real laoe. Every time you think of it a gentle ripple of fun and pleasure steals over you, and you own that joke just as much as if you made it, and it is always above par. Your friend is to be judged by what he gives yon. If he makes life seem a splendid gift, worth having if he gives you some good, sweet impulse not yours before if he gives you pome glimpse of afine ideal you bad not spied before it he makes you better, be to worth bis weight la goldi tor be is rare.

Bishop Fallows, of the Reformed Episcopal churph, Chicago, paid a high but deserved compliment to women in a sermon preached last Sunday night. He answered the question why there are mora women than men in the church by saying that religion requires faith and woman have more faith than men. They are also more conscientious than men and more anxious to obey the call of duty. But what is especially worthy of note is the Bishop's declaration that "while the women are taking the better part of the culture of the age the men are doing something else. The nineteenth century is truly a woman's.century. She has come into possession of her rights and privileges and will never let go." The Mail has said substantially the same thing many times over. Women have forged ahead in intellectual, religious, artistic and business life at a pace to almost take one's breath away in recent years. Where they are going to stop or what the end is to be no one can fortell, but if the sex that used to be deemed the inferior of man shall continue to conquer new domains as they have been doing it is a little hard to see what is going to be left for men to do presently. It is no mere gallantry of speedjh any more to say that women are "thepetter half" of creation. They are the better half in very deed and truth and in more ways than was ever contemplated by the old compliment.

"The history of Terre Haute Building and Loan associations has been remarkable," said Max Joseph, who was most instrumental in introducing the plan in this city, the other day. "When we went around to organize the first association in 1871, the business men wouldn't have anything to do with it, and we had trouble finding enough stockholders to complete the organization. Now all it is necessary to do is to announce that membership rolls of a new association can be found at such and such a place, and people flock there to take Stock. The change of sentiment in seventeen years has been very remakable. The opposition we had to overcome when we organized No. 1 was intensely strong. Why, I can name yoir some of the most

l.i TTlfWiTf'! Haayte to-day who fought us from the very start when we went around to solicit members. People fought shy of the thing, thinking it a big swindle. One of the shrewdest business men on Main street fought me like a tiger. The organization required that one hundred shares of stock bo taken, but after all our work wfe could only dispose of eighty-seven shares. Our largest stockholder was Nick Filbeck, who took five shares. A number of business men who thought the scheme a swindle took shares only because they trusted to my integrity. Philip Schloss came to me( and wanted me to give it up. But finally we got together in a little old building at Fourth and Ohio and organized.

After No. 1 had been running a short time and peopxe found out the merits of the plan, they jvere anxious to go into the association, and No.'s 2, 3 and 4 were formed in rapid succession. Men did not seem to understand the thing, no matter how it was explained. •'One of the first to be benefitted by No. 1 A*as a well known carpenter. He owned a place of his own, but through business misfortune was compelled to mortgage it for about $1,200. About the time we were organizing the notes were to be foreclosed. He didn't know what to do, but on my advice took two shares of stock. Then we wont to his creditor and succeeded in getting him to take second mortgage for §200. The two shares paid out $1,000. The mangot his money out of the association and paid off the noies. To this day he never meets me on the street without stopping to shake hands and thank me for persuading him to tako those two building and loan shares. "In 1878 the panic came, but the associations tided it over, and since that time have been very successful. Terre Haute building and loan associations are the best in the United Stales. There are no others like them in any city that I know of. They are absolutely secure. Money is only loaned on first mortgage security. The personal note of no one is recognized. Stockholders draw for loans, and when there are none anxious to get the money, the loan is forced. In this way the association'is kept going, and instead of becoming a burden is made an excellent thing. There are many things in favor of the Terre Haute associations as compared with any others in existence and the city has reason to be grateful to them for a very material advancement.^

It has been a good many yeara since Terre Haute has known such a winter as this.

A

pouring rain on Christmas day

and a warm beautifully clear New Years, with no ice daring the entire holiday Mason and not enough snow to ran a hand sled on since the arrival of cooler weather, sdstfs remarkable. The thickest ice would not support a skater. To all indications Terre Haute baa b#sn rwy suddenly transplanted into a tropical climate.

The business men seem quite inactive on the subjeet of new industrial projects for the city. It is high time effort should be renewed to push the city to the front. Such effort as has been heretofoie made has produced a very beneficial effect. No one will deny that progress has been made. But energy sho ild not disappear. The gas well was a failure, but not undaunted a number of capitalists are making ready to bore %gain. Not for gas but for oil, and as oil has been found in this vicinity in an abundant quantity success in the venture seems almost assured. There are three industrial projects the city has within reach, and a disposition on the part of several business men to secure the most promising should not be allowed to languish. Secretary Thompson, who has been with the business men's association for two years or more, has resigned his position and will leave soon for Indianapolis. His work cannot be overestimated. While the number of industries secured has been small, the city has been advertised in every manufacturing town in the country. As an evidence of the thoroughness of the work, letters of solicitation, accompanied by the several pamphlets and illustrated papers containing the advertising matter of the city, have been sent to every reaper, mower, and wagon works in the country, and in every line of manufacturing similar efforts to secure industries have been made. But the limited means at the association's command could not compete with the ready wealth at other places. The city has boeu extensively advertised, however, and a successor to Mr. Thompson should be chosenjjtonce to go on with the good work. f-

The advent of the new year did not seem to be replete with the usual "swearing offs" which occur annually, only to be broken before one has become accustomed to writing the new year correctly. Resolutions have been broken so frequently that a distinction has been drawn. You could scarcely find a man or women either this week who would admit to having sworn off. They all had "decided to quit" some habit, "determined to give up" indulgence in some pleasure or other, but none of them had "sworn off" because their conscience would have been greatly troubled in the event the resolutions were not kept.^ Conscience seems to have made coward

ing up some meanness or bad habit. There were, however, about the usual number of determinations to cease smoking. One gentleman who declared he had given up the habit."for sure" placed the matter in alight which should strike every man most forcibly, especially those who are young and are anxious to succeed. He said he averaged three cigais a day, which cost him 25 cents. His cigar bill for the year was fully $90. The established rate of interest in Indiana is 8 per. cent. For every cigar he consumed, the interest of $1.00 went up in smoke. The amount of money paid out for cigars would have enabled him to have paid the interest on over $1,000 which might have been employed in some profitable investment If every smoker, the informant said, would look at the habit in this light there would not be the excessive indul gence in tobacco that is so prevalent' to-day.

It would be an excellent thing for every family to practice the boiling of drinking water. Science has well established the fact that germs of many diseases are communicated through water. Boiling generally destroys the germs. A physician, in speaking of the condition of the wells in the city, said that he hardly thought there was a pure well of water in the city. There is the greatest of negligence in keeping a well in good condition. Few realize the importance of exercising great care in maintaining such. It requires little annoyance to boil drinking water and the results cannot be else than beneficial. Typhoid fever, generally the most malignant of fever, is communicated through water. Boiling destroys the germ, and those who drink boiled water may have no fear of taking the disease from this source. Inasmuch as there has been and is now considerable typhoid in the city, it might be well for many to take the advice to prevent the possible spread of the disease. By all means, boil your drinking water and reduce thev doctor bills and prevent sickness which might otherwise come.

The winter term of Coates college opens Monday with several new teachers. Miss Isavene W. Martin, a graduate of Vassar college in 1881, becomes professor of modern languages. Miss Alice -E. Mitchell will have charge of the art department, and Miss Caroline Cooke, a graduate of Wellesley College, will conduct a series of studies in Ronffen literature. The Rev. W. E. Higgins and the Rev. Geo. R. Pierce will deliver lectures on old testament history during the remainder of the year.

The court house and government buildings were thrown open to t$e publlc on New Year's day, and a large number of people inspected them. The postoffice will be removed to the new bnfld** ing on the arrival of the furniture.

TERRE HAUTE, INBl, SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 5 1889 Nineteenth Yeai

.A^ Woman's Chat.

BY BXRKNDA BLOUNT.

Ella Wheeler has come out' with a lengthy article in which she explains how dear and lovely a woman can be, and how much she loves her sisters all over creation. And yet I would wager a good deal that our poetess of passion has had more to endure in the way ofc unkind criticism from her sex than from all the men and newspapers in the country put together. Whenever a woman dares to say anything against women in general, however, she is denounced at onee by all the "goody-goodies," and it is whispered about that she has committed some indiscretion which has brought upon her just censure and she is only spiteful and mad. Hence her denunciation. Ouida has been blamed in exactly this way, and yet every woman knows in her heart thatJOuida's pictures of narrow-minded women are true to life.

It may be due to the little, confined, uneventful lives led by our grandmothers, or it may be due to a gift for being tenacious of little and insignificant things, that many women are full of malice and of jealousy. They are in general unkind to each other. Hardly a woman can be found who is capable of real, devoted and sincere friendship. A man in trouble finds friends much more easily among his fellow-men than does a woman in disgrace among her fellowwomen. It is said that among the slave holders none were so cruel as the women who managed the slaves themselves.

Take a man who has been in the gutter. Let him show a disposition to rise, to reform. A hundred helping hands are reached to him. Let a womau once fall her sisters never forget it, never quite forgiVe her or get over the feeling that they will be contaminated by companionship with her. The same women, however, will accept with open arins the man who has ruined her, especially if he has a good bank account. I have often been amazed at the delight some women, good women, too, seem to take in repeating a scandalous story upon a neighbor. It may even be about a woman with whom they are intimate, to Whose house they go frequently, and both belong to the same church.

The story may not be true at all, and they may not really believe it, but they

O, the petty, miserable meannesses of some of us who are made a little lower than the angels! What a shame it is that we cannot rise above it all and be charitable, big-hearted and dispositioned one toward another. I know one woman, who, when any evil report is brought to her, says emphatically: "I do not believe it." By her frankness and indignation over such gossip she does much to kill it altogether. She tells no bad news about anybody, and will not allow others to trouble her with such things. All honor is due to such a woman. Let us each one establish a guard over our ears and tongues and above all seek for an inletting of the divine light of charity to our inmost hearts, giving usa warm and kindly feeling for all humanity and killing spite, malice and envy.

Heber Newton announces that the religion of the day is no longer taking hold on the belief and lifting the lives of men to a high plane of responsibility and virtue. He declare^ that the doctrines current in the creeds have lost their hold on the masses, high and low, and that we are in great need of a new religion, a living faith, that shall have a grip on every-day life, on business, on domestic affairs. Mr. Newton affirms further that the Church no longer leads in social, literary or scientific matters that the common people do not go to the Church for comfort and enlightenment, and that while opposition to science is at least modified, the Church does not lead in the aggressive search for truth. This seems to be the gist of the charge. Now let us listen to the replies. If he can sustain the position, w§ must certainly need something new.

A great mystery in a certain nonsenold in Boston has been solved. The bead of the house, who bought sugar by the barrel, often wondered "how in the world the family used so much sweetening as they did," and his wife, who was not much given to going into the kitchen, said she guessed they did not use any more than other folks. But one day she did go to the kitchen, and arrived just in time to see the cook in the act oi throwing a spoonful of granulated white sugar on the fire. Sugar is exceedingly inflammable, and its application made the iWfiasIr up in fine shape. The girl confessed that she bad regularly used ragfC to quicken the toe. mam,"she said, "wemust have the fire, hnrna that slow that in# ^tin' upon Hi"

One man who refused to yield to her demand, had his whiskers pulled and hat knocked off, while several were pushed into the gutter.

Several young ladies of Mount Yeinon, Ohio, among them a few Normal College graduates who have no taste for school teaching, recently concluded to organize a debating society for mental training, as well as for winter evening pastime, and appointed an evening to debate the' question: "Is Life Worth Living Without a Beau As none of the girls could be persuaded to take the affirmative the debate was deferred, and it was agreed to extend the limit of age of unmarried women to forty years.

whispering it to a neighbor. And, again, how many women do you know who oan endure to have another one disagree with them upon any subject? Men can get along together and treat each other with at least a show of friendship, even if they do not accept the same creed upon all subjects. A woman never forgives another one for being of a different opinion or for daring to intimate that she may be in the wrong.

The Pomeroy, Ohio, girl who, in an-, swer to advertisement for a wife, journeyed to Long Prairie, Minn., has returned home without having changed her name. She made the trip on condition that should she not like the groom after a personal acquaintance of a few weeks, she would be at liberty to return to her parents at his expense. After remaining in Long Prairie for five weeks she decided that she would prefer another husband, and, according to agreement, the westerner purchased a ticket, saw her to the depot and put her on a train for home.

The house of Wm. Ceroid, No.40 south Fifteenth street, was discovered on fire shortly after noon on Wednesday. After the firemen arrived it was learned that Mrs. Gerold and two children were in the burning building. Before they could be rescued they were burned so badly that one child, a boy 5 Ave years of age, died at 7 o'clock in the evening, and Mrs. Gerold is still in a critical condition. Dr. Rice aays there is a bare chance of recovery The other child, a little girl, is out of danger. It Is supposed that this child and the mother were asleep, the the latter having suffered from toothache. Various theories have been advanced as to the origin of the fire, but it is now thought that the boy attempted to light the fire with ooaloO, set his clothing on fire and ran through the house. Mr. (Ceroid has been a faithful employe of Bement, Kea %Co., for many

One of the professors has undertaken'. to tell up what sorV of an appearance Jesus must have presented Iq eye^yday life. Contrary to ttw painters,^e'tells..us he ntuat have worn a turjban, as do all, both rich and pOor^in Palestine. No One goes with head uncovered. It was probably a white turban, fastened under the chin with a cord, and falling-down to the shoulders. Underneath he wore the tunio, or seamless garment, wovtln in a piece, and over that, in all probability, not the long robe of the Soribai, but a mantle of white, with brown stripes, or, ^ery likely, blue but not red. Op the four corners were the tufts prescribed by law. On his feet he wore sandals. When traveling, custom would show that he carried a stick and had a cord around his waist. Prof. Stapfei has oertainly come very much nearer reconstrnoting the identical Jeans than the conventional pictures with which^we are most apcyajjinted,

TEMPERANCE TESTIMONY. With the coming of Franois Murphy, it Is apropros txf quote the testimony of the "greatest showman ofi earth." "I drank," says P. T. Barnum{ *Hnore or less intoxicating liqjiom from ,1837 to 1. 1847. The last four of these, years I was in England, and there the habit and my appetite for liquor grew so strong that I discovered that if it continued it would certainly work my ruin, With a tremendous efforts and a most determined'3^"" resolution, I broke the habit squara otf', and resolved never to practice, it again, I have religiously kept. th»t^ resolutiontsf for more than forty years/ Hfcd 1 not*/ done so, I should have been in my grave a quarter of a century'ago, for my health^ $ had already begun to be ftffeoted by al-1* cohol. I Was so delighted Witli nay own escape, that! traveled thousands of miles-f at my own expensb and gave hundreds of free temperance lectures In every State between Maine and Wisconsin, besides Missouri. Kentucky, Louisiana and Caiifornia. I have gladly expended thous* ands of dollarsTor temperance. I have built numerous Bouses for moderate' drinking worklngmen on condition that they would become teetotalers, and they subsequently paid for the houses with the mpney ana strength gained thereby.*

DIVORCED WOMEN.

What becomes of diVorced wo&en? vast field of unexplored territory is opened by the question. Just as mules are,, supposed to seek for their death some spot where no eye can behold them, so divorced women, onee dlyoroefl, are be-7, & limbo in which the rest of, their lives is spent unobserved. But the Chioago Tri*.. bune has been at the pains of collecting statistics about them, and it finds that they can accurately be divided into four following classes:

These figures have been compiled from a comparison of the divorce list with then marriages registers from the statements*' of judges, justices cf the peace, clergy-: men, lawyors and court officials, and from personal inquiry among those who have been divorced. They can be accepted as fairly and substantially correct.

HIE MARRIA OE UESTION. The Hon. Chauncey M. Depew wa^ ^.,, nursing a sprained tendon in a leg dono up in plaster in the library of his house' in Forty-flfth street. To be sure, writer Ralph in the Providence Journal, there were carriages constantly coming and going and he was never left long by himself. But there, you fancy, was place to get a sympathetic answer to Mrs. Mona Caird's question about marriage. It is natural to think that the quiet domestic and conjugal joys mturff'^' seem tame to a man immersed in great business all day and surrounded every night by admiring, laughing, applaud,ing hosts of lively people. '•Chauncey I" A soft musical voicd causes him to raise his head. "Don't sit too near the window, dear." "All right, my dear, I wgn't take cold," I'm very comfortable.,'

Pshaw! what does the,great Rallrotw President and statesman and wit know about the failure of marriage? Whafc testimony against wedlock could he £iv£, in court that any court would receive??.None, for all he knows must be what hd has read and heard against some format of marriage that are unknown phases or life to him. His home is a latter-day Eden, hedged round with bonds of affectlon so closely knit that no serpent of discord can wriggle in, be it ever, solsmall. His home, his wife and his boy are the greatest Joys—the sources of hi* rest ana comfort and pride. And Mr* Depew is not alone among our great,', men in this enviable state. Ex-Henatof' Warner Miller has just eueh another home. Alonzo B. Cornell, once Governor of this State, has a wife who is more. than a joy she is a companion for eveiy hour and enterprise* No man's life is further from proving that marriage Is a fatlnrn than that of Jay Gould, who is asditfirignishAd J'i th" so- lal circle for his fidelity to and love fMr his fireside sul he is in Wall street as a money maker, Erastus Wiman, the Canadian New Yorker, Is a very much married man in. the best sense of the term, and every one of the great editors ot the New York, morning newspapers is a happily married man—except Sir, Sennet, the bach* elor. ...
