Mr. Gladstone declares that the last half contury must be considered the best fifty years from the beginning of the world to the present time, and such men as Mr. Gladstone are to be praised for that condition of civilization which makes this proud statement true.

A great many American tourists anxious to reach home are detained in London and Liverpool, not able to find room in outgoing steamers. This is only one of the great variety of disagreeable things Americans never oonslder when planning foreign trips.

The old pioneers who chalked In black crayons upon their wagon covers, "Pike's Peak or bust," never dreamed of seeing a wagon road built to its very top but it has been done. The road is sixteen miles long. At one point, which is 10,862 feet high, the smoke of a locomotive ninety miles away may be seen.

A large number of famous men were once book agents. Among tbem were George Washington, Longfellow, Bret Harte, Jay Gould, ex-President Hayes, Daniel Webster, General Grant, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Prince Bismarck. This is conclusive proof that it requires a great de^l of "brass" to become a statesman.

Potter Palmer is one of the few landlords of the country who refuses to allow anyone in his service to receive a tip. A violation results In the dismissal of the recipient. Tho custom of "tipping" is despicable, but it is nevertheless so widely permitted that the few employers who refuse to allow it should be most liberally encouraged.

A new business directory of Johnstown and surrounding boroughs contains the names of over 500 busiuess and professional men. It also shows that there are now thlrty-slx grocery stores and flfty-oae saloons open In tho place. This reoovory In saloon circles is not unusual, but tho rebuilding of other inoats is remarbabte and givos Johnstown a record that will be hard to surpass.

The recent order of the secretary of the navy dircctit.g that a bank account bo opened forallenllstod men by navy paymasters, and granting interest at four percent, per annum, Is looked upon by navy onieers as promising good results. It is just what lite men have long stood in need of, and now It I# expected that there will be big "pay days'" for some of tho men at the end of a three years' cruise. ___

The following advertisement appeared in a recent number of tho London Tab let: "To Parents—Unruly girls aud boys of any age vlslited and punished at their homes by a thorough disciplinarian accustomed to {administer corporal punisbment. All b«yl habits cured by one or two attendances. Fee, five shillings for two visits. Address •Birch.'" Several American mothers contemplate importing "Birch."

A big bustle factory at Bridgeport, Conn., was reported to have suspended, but the firm declare they are still run niug with a full force aud that the demand for their goods has not diminished They must go to the far back-woods then, for in the large cities a bustle is seldom seen on the street nowadays. The outlandish buirleeque on nature has seen its day and pretty womankind are now visible somewhat as nature made tbem—and vastly more attractive, we think, than when they wore the camel hump. The sooner the Bridgeport factory suspends, or gets to making something elae than buatles, the better.

The Atlanta constitution In a lengthy argument to prove that the negroes of Texas are prosperous, says: "They own 1,000,000 acres of land, par taxes on 1901,000,000 worth of property, have 2,000 churches, 2,000 Sunday schools, 2,000 benevolentassoclatlooa, tenhlgh schools, 2,500 common schools, ,000 teachers, 136,000 pupils attending schools, twenty* three doctors, twenty-five lawyers, 100 merchants, 6,000 mechanica, fifteen newspaper*, hundreds of farmers and stockmen, and several Inventor*.n This may all be true, and the negroes still be In a lamentable condition. In tact recent oocui lances tend to conclusively show that these apparently favorable conditions are the cause of merelleaa persecution. Tbe negro mm* not prosper if he would be tolerated by an aristocratic south.

Judge Itaek yesterday sentenced Grant Dolt to Imprisonment In tbe oonnty jail for day*, with a fine of $100, for criminal assault on Alice Gore. Grant confessed to the crime, but did not twwivt toll sentence for the reason that would kill his *ted lather.*

Town Talk.

TLTK JCT8TKBT OF

Some one has been so unkind as to compare the intellectual apartment of the city council unto the

wbereWy

Mommoth

the #250 license could not

be legally collected. Mind you, be anticipated the unconstitutionality of the law and, with thanks bubbling over, the council grasped the »traw and declared that under tbe circumstances the ordinance could not bo thought of. It was not for an instance considered that in Indianapolis the legality of the law was not decided In the council, and that until the court« rendered a verdict the |260 per saloon will flow into the city treasury. And since the memorable session »f Tuesday, Mr. Taylor has discovered that he was in error that his thoughtless advice to the council was a "bad break." On this basis where does tbe council stand? Is it then to be wondered at that this comment should be made in the Indianapolis News: "Terre Haute'* city attorney Knows more about it than the oourts, aud therefore decides the liquor license law unconstitutional, and the brilliant, blundering council of that city refused to vote to license dispensers of liquid poison there. The city is almost bankrupt, but the great council man to statesmen of that town can't stand the thought of Increasing the revenue." Mr. Taylor Is anxious to square himself, and is understood to bo willing to draw up another license ordinance for presentation at tbe next meeting on October 1st. It is sincerely to be hoped Vbat he will do this, for even if the aristocratic twelve will not adopt it, the document will serve to remind them that they are being paid for supposed duty. There are four members who deeerv^ none of this criticism and for them it la not intended. They are Messrs. Donham, Burns, Lei nburger and Steele, who had the courage and manhood to vote for the license.

TKJCJUt SHALL BK KO HfTRE»CHIBST. Anticipating "heart failure" on the saloon tax project, Mr. Lelnburfwr, a business man from tbe Fifth ward, not old enough in council experience to be aware of the entire abeeace of business sense la city government, thought it would be preferred to Improve the financial standing by making a horizontal retrenchment In expenditures. He consequently introduced a measure to reduce salaries from beginning to «*d of tbe city pay roll, decrease tbe police force from 16 to 34, cut off one fireman on each company, etc., which cbangea would mean a saving of Manually. But bare again fate was as could have ben expected—failure. Expanses shall not be red need, nor shall saloons be :axed to increase revenue. As a brilliant plan for moving along until providence brings aid, a 1*pw money" law Is passed.

cave,

in that it is a succession of hollow caverns, Inspiring in emptiness, wonderful in dimensions, tbe refuge of bats (those who operate at night), the seat of myiteriee, a place of no practical use whatever. And who can say the comparison is overdrawn? The spectacle presented within tbe council chamber is such as io drive the thinking public to tbe limit bf exasperation, and in this extremity crltipism fails to satisfy the outraged sense of justice. Throe weeks ago the council met, and, with deliberation surprising at tbe time, sensibly discussed means of relieving the distressed city treasury, finally apparently arriving at a conclusion that the public bad reacbid long before, that relief could only be h«4 in a saloon license of $250. Tbe license was not adopted, but such liberal oofa» sideration was given tbe measure that the most confident prediction of its ultimate adoption seemed perfectly reasonable. But, lo! On Tuesday evening th* august assembly again came together, and with the eye of thousands resting upon it, boldly decided that tbe llcenaa should not be imposed. The vote—7 to 3—left uo doubt as to intention. Clearly, tbe Invincible twelve desired to be understood, once for all, as uncompromisingly against lioense of any kind oh saloons. If It Is a peddler of meats tbikt you want over-burdened with legislation name your request and it will be given unprejudiced consideration. The meat peddler is very liable to do a great Injury and his presence is a constant menace to the peace of happy homes. Of oourse he should be compelled to either quit business or pay a license. But the saloonkeeper! Why It Is preposterous to Impose a license upon him—he who has tho interests of all at heart, who would personally assist in keeping your account of finances, who would see that your children are cared for after you are in a toper's grave who would, in many ways, promote happiness in your family circle. No, do not ask that be be called upon, as In other places, to pay a lic ence which would have a tendency toward reducing taxes as well as relleving^n, exhausted treasury. Tbocounctlescaped open ayowal of anti-license sentiment on a mere technicality. City Attorney Taylor conceived a glaring flaw in the, Ptoto law

them in financial circles in order to live This scheme was resorted to in the city'» history but once oefore, in 1872, when the whole country was In financial straits. It is said that coming events cast their shadows before, and T. T. Is lead to ask If this legislation la a forerunner of our commercial disgrace over the entire country?

THE BOYS IN BLUB.

The city was filled several days this week with gray haired veterans of the rebellion, ocme together to exchange reminiscences and renew acquaintance of the stormy years of long ago. The sight of their hearty cordiality was inspiring and their enthusiasm on the mere mention of some incident of the battle field was such as to almost fill one' who was not able to participate in the struggle, with envy. Thursday evening the old soldiers marched In a body to the Opera house entertainment, and when the band heading the procession struck up "Marching Through Georgia" the enthusiasm was such as to forcibly remind T, T. of campaign times when men were ranked in loyalty according to the nolce they could make In a parade. AH through the reunion the appearance of the veterans served to suggest to the new generation that before long the G. A. R. will be a thing of the past.

Men, who during the strife, must have been physical giants, were feeble, and walked with canes. Hair once black had become gray and white but the mere reunion acted as an elixir of youth, for age seemed to disappear in the face of recalled n^pmories. Such reunions are doubly pleasant occasions, and wben they occur the old soldiers must have the best the city can afford for they certainly are entitled to every favor that can be conceived of.

SUNDAY CLOSING.

The gradual but material shifting of sentiment on the Sunday closing question is meeting with much strong commendation among all classes of citizens. It was witli pleasure that tbe closing of the drug stores was received, and when tbe cigar stores determined to follow the example surprise and favorable comment increased. Noting tbe public attitude and catching the fever, the grocerymen agreed to close entirely on Sunday, and now T. T. looks daily for evidences of contagion In other lines of trade. There is no reason in tbe world why business bouses of any kind should bo kept open on Sunday. Photograph galleries, hat stores, clothing stores, second band stores—and saloons even, should recognize the day as one of rest If not religion* obsorvatieo. It in a matter of widespread notoriety that Sunday In Terre Haute is tho busiest day of the week in som® respects. Main street on Sunday afternoons usually has thoap pearance of State street, Chicago, on a week day, and all because a few who are influential and could bring about a complete change, do not care to do so. The ministers of the pulpit are doing good work in bringing about a reform and they should receive hearty suppor^. One divine who has heretofore remained silent on tbe question, Rev. Crura, expressed himself unmistakably in favor of all places closing, last Sunday morning. He said he had not given his opinion before for tbe reasou that he was new in the field, but that he intended to give the subject some attention and desired the oooperation of his congregation in the good work by a determined effort, perhaps volunteer closing on the part of the busloess men, theoonncil can be made to look at the matter fairly and order the Sunday closing of saloons. Then Terre Haute will have a tone of respectability that has long been wanting. rr

TOOK KWBCT.

T. Ta remark on the "duty" question last week had a decided effect on one gentleman—a oonnty official. He was leaving tbe court honse when tbe paper was shown him by a brother official with the remark: "Where are you going?" "Out to the ball game" was the renly. He then read the paper, but said nothing. Half an hour later the same official found him in hia office. 'Thought you were going to tbe ball game." "Changed my mind. Say, who a rites that Town Ta.k?"

The fall openings of both tbe State Normal and Polytechnic, tbe former on Monday and the latter on Wednesday, were highly satisfactory. Tbe enrollment at tho Normal was SM, representatives from every county in tbe state Meg included in tbe list. Of tbia number, which is larger than ever before at tbe opening of the fall term, 140 are *tudents who have entered the school this year lor tbe first time. Tbe new building la not entirely finished, but work haa reached such a stage that thare will be

BO

Interruption in tbe school. Tbe opening enrollment of the Polytechnic waa also larger than ever before. Tbe Freeh men class is up to tbe limit, white tbe Sophomore clam haa been increased in siM by the addition of eleven new stodeat*. Dr. T. C, Mendenball has been in tbe dty this week resisting in tbe opening duties, and will probably not leave for seven* days. No successor to tbe presidency has yet been found, but the work of tbe school will goon without del*y or interruption under the dV rectioa of tbe fecaltj.

Geraldines Letter.

MY DEAR RUTH:—I shall not have to heettate In answering your question as to what school you shall attend, whether you decide to finish at Smith College, Wellesley or Harvard annex—you can prepare for either of them right here at Coates College. I will send you a catalogue as you desire, but after all what Is a catalogue but a veritable Valley of Dry Bones. You cannot judge of the merits of a school at all from Its catalogue Is often very much of that, aud very little of the school. You want to have the dry bones clothed In flesh and blood want to know all about the school, kuow all about its teachers, who they are, as well as what they know. Emerson, you know, wrote to his daughter, "What you study matters little, but with whom you study matters a great deal," so I am going to tell you all I know about tho school and about its teachers, then you most take your fate in your own hands. I send you to-day a photograph of the building and part of the grounds, and you can see for yourself how delightfully It Is situated. I shall thereby save writing a description of a laudscape, something I never could do. The school was about to breathe Its last when the trustees, with more wisdom than they knew, called John Mason Dunoan, of Cumberland, Md., to be Its President. He is a scholar and a thoroughbred Christian gentleman, a wonderful organizer withal. His ideals are high but no higher than can well be accomplished. He teaches Latin and English and his pupils say that the usually dreary role of Latin buds and blossoms like the rose under his manner of teaching. He is ably seconded in his every effort by Mrs. Duncan, who Is In every way a superior woman and who, in the short time he has been with us, won golden opinions from all. Mrs. Duncan teaches French and History. She Is assisted by Mrs. Morton Wood, who was, for many years, a tcachor In the Ann Arbor University. Mra. Wood will also assist President Duncan with his classes. Prof. Josoph Henry Tudor, who has the department of Mathematics and Science, is a natiye of New Jersey and was graduated from LaFayetie College aud afterward took a special eonrw in soience at Harvard. Prof. Tudor, although a young man, has bad seven years' experience in teaching. He also teachos Graphics-that tne sns mechanical and architeehnal drawing. He is a practical civil engineer as well, and was for a time in tho employ of tbe PennHylvnnia r*Un„d. Kr »ul-in lied wig Giese, the German teacher, was born near Berlin.

father was a professor

in the military school at Potsdam, which you have so often read about. He came to this country for political reasons and settled in Chicago as professor In the Lutheran Theological Seminary. He taught his daughter almost exclusively. She Is a thorough scholar in all branches. She was reared in the traditions and culture of a noble German family. Her grandfather and great grandfathers on her father's side have, for generations back, held the positions of superintendents of tbe Lutheran church, which answers to the position of Bishop in tbe Episcopal church. It will be the rarest opportunity for you to perfect your German, for from her you can acquire the Worth German pronunciation and this Worth German accent will be required of you at Wellesley should yon go there. Miss Eva Alden, who teaches piano muslo, was graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music. Her playing Is absolutely perfect. 1 know her well and am sure she will make a splendid teacher. Prof. Belcher of Indianapolis, oomes oyer two days in the week to give lessons In vocal music and the organ. He also gives the whole school two lessons a week in chorus singing free of charge. Theodore Steele also oomes over from Indianapolis, two days In tbe week to teach painting. He studied five years in tbe Royal Academy at Munich, taking a first medal there. The other teachers are all good their names you will se® in tbe catalogue. The pnpila In the College and Seminary oourse are: Fannie Oarleton, Sue Roes, Roee Farrington, Jessie Alden, Carrie Weinstien, Gertrude Byers, Roth Mer ring, Bewie Wales, Sadie Gullck, Lizzie Hunter, Grace Hubbard, Bertha Miller, Effle Kennady, Alice Fleming, Kitty Hunt, Bells Henry and others whoee natnee I do not know. In tbe Seminary oourse are Grace and May Davis, Grace Keyea, Venna Richardson,Sadie Gullck, Laura Barnett and May Crawford. In tbe preparatory course, Sarah Rhodea, Oootie Black, Edith Marring, Lina Smith, Jennie Simpson, Sarah Fair banks, Martha Royse, Leila Ball, Nellie Fuqna, Blanche Fuqua, Alice Prevo, Edith Leachman. Bffie Smith, Margaret Chad wick, Fannie Retaheimer, Edna McDaritt, Ruth and May Stien. Those boarding In tbe school are Alice Prevo, from West York, 111., Edith McDaritt, Grand view, Din Effle Sina Smith, Terre

Hants, Ruth and May Stien, Wheatland, Ind., Agnes Smith, Crawfordsrilie, IndL, Agnes Walker, Rock ville, Bonnie Nixon, Newport, Miss Lsughlin, Brooklyn, Ind. Tbe primary school you wiif not be greatly interested in yooreelf, but per­

*«1 SSWi

haps some of your friends will be. It' was not at first a feature of tbe college but 1s the outgrowth of a demand by the mothers of the dty. It wastakeu in baud by several women of influeuce and position, prominent among whom were Mrs. Joseph Strong and Mrs. Hassy Gilbert. The Primary teacher is Miss Walter, of Cincinnati. She Is the granddaughter of the Rev. Dr. Howe Allen, of Lane Theological Seminary, Chicago was graduated from the Cincinnati Kindergarten, where she taught for one year. She will also be directress of French conversation. There will be a oourse of lectures this winter which will be highly interesting. I shall have to tell you that everything just now Is crowded and hampered, but It Is the crowding and hampering of prosperity waiting for larger evolution. Through the liberality of a few noble cltizenir nearly all the money needed for a large new building has been given, and It will soou be under way. You will not mind being a little crowded for a short time,. will you? You^vlll miss the gymnasium you hsd in your school at I hop* it will not be out of plaos for us here, even after the beautiful response on the part of our community to the Coatos college effort, to make an importunate plea for a gymnasium so that the bodios of these girls shall be strong and sufficient for the noble demands of their Intellectual aspirations. A sound mind ID a sound body Is what we all believe In. I do hope you will oome. Let me know as soou as you make up your mind.

Yours ever, GERALDINE.
