ABOUT OUR NEIGHBORS.

Logansport has a "select" and "brainy ring. Under the head of ''Little Things" an exchange prints an obituary notice.

Charleston is circulating a subscription paper for a new Opera house. Paris also wants anew theater.

Exchanges in the Wabash'.valley are crying for better roads, and are urging construction of grave! highways.

Evansville wants a normal school, so does Goshen. Come now, what is the matter with the State Normal?

It is said that some of the insurance companies are withdrawing from Brazil on account of the frequency of fires,

Evansville has commenced work on a base ball park. Some cheap kindling wood may be purchased at the end of the^season.

Fox drives are all the rage throughout this part of the state. Nearly every exchange contains a notice of some drive or other.

By donating *5,000 and taking an ad ditional $5,000 worth of stock, Vincennes has secured the Light Iron Sewer-Pipe company.

The Crescent says it will air the various resorts in Frankfort, and adds: "Before we get throngh, we will show this town to be the poorest governed city in the State."

The Frankfort city council and water works company have been at war. A peace has been declared and both sides are where they were before the cruel warfare opened.

Fire at Asherville, Clay county. Mondao night, destroyed a considerable portion of the town, includintr two stores, a saloon, and several houses. Loss about 96,000 partially insured.

A young couple in Gibson county agreed to elope. The girl's mother was up to snuff, locked the girl up, disguised herself and when she met the suitor at the appointed hour, made it "mighty interestin' for him.

Rockville has a battery of which any city could well be proud. Active drilling is in progress in the hope of winning new laurels at Galveston, Tex., Washington, D. C., and Indianapolis this summer.

The amateur dramatic craze is on in a most virulent form in neighboring towns. Evansville has the Romeo and Juliet company, Vincennes Swell Aflair, Paris a home talent minstrel show, Brazil an amateur company, Crawfordsville Ben Hur, with others to hear from.

For the third time within a period of two years Knightsville has been visited with a destructive fire. About half-past 3 o'clock Sunday morning afire broke out in the center building in the block just south of the one burned out in January, 1887, and again in July of the same year. The flames spread rapidly in both directions, and in less than two hours the entire block, together with its contents, was in ashes.

Foster's Carpet and Furniture house will be better stocked than ever this spring with Artistic Furniture and Stylish Carpets.

KIRMESS SPARKS FROM Mr. Griffith, our leading shoe dealer. He informs us that the exquisite taste displayed by the ladies who compose the Kirmess party in selecting and ordering footwear for the occasion, was truly remarkable. By their description and suggestions, he ordered slippers and Oxfords of unusual design, color and tints, price being the last consideration. He says Terre Hnute ladies are posted quite as well in the latest styles as the buyer himself. He reports a Terre Haute lady as being the originator of a beautiful kid Oxford, never before made until he got her ideas and reported them to N. D. Dodge, of Newburyport, Mass., who prides himself as being a leader in making fine slippers, Oxfords, etc. His agent refers to Terre Haute as a veiy stylish city, and gets his ideas from the quality and styles of shoes and slippers ordered by Mr. T. J. Griffith, who makes fine shoes his study. While Mr. (iriffitb pays high tribute to the cultured taste of our city ladies, yet it is justly due to him to say that it is through his untiring efforts that Terre Haute possesses a shoe store which ranks among the leaders, carrying not only stylish, but the very best grades of good makes. It is this conscientious endeavor to please the public which has placed Mr. Griffith in the van of reliable shoe dealers.
