The grade betwecm here and Maxville is in a wretched condition. Loose gravel has been placed upon it and the entire stretch, of road is covered with slush three inchos deep.

It shows the law to have worked as sucessful as could hare been expected on first test, both financially and otherwise.

The strict enforcement of the vaccinatlou law among tho school children, has occasioned not a little trouble in the schools during the past week. Many children presented themselves on Monday morning without certificates of vaccination, and these the teachers refused to admit. In a great many instances children were of poor parents who could not afford to pay for vaccinnaUon. This work does not come under the care of the county physician, and there Is considerable complaint to the effect that if the school board demands vaccination they should provide means to that end, rather than compel poor children to re-

Ere the traces of last season's fruit crop has scarcely disappeared from the trees that bore it, the cry is raised that next season's crop will be a failure. It is singular how often in spite of predictions of crop failures we are in the end blest with an abundant ature has performed a freak in bringing rose and lilac bushes into leaf in January. Is she not capable, in spite of predictions, of giving us an abundent crop?

For the peace of mind of local base ball enthusiasts, it is hoped that some decisive step will soon be taken which will put Terre Haute in the Inter-State league. H. F. Schmidt is in receipt of a letter from W. H. Lucas, manager of the Dubuaue club in 1888 and of the Burlington last year, who says that he believes a team from this city in the InterState league would be a paying investment, and that he has money to spend on base ball. Unless something is done soon Terre Haute will be shut out.

Monday was the twentieth anniyersary of the establishment of the State Normal school, and in recognition of the event, it was the intention of the board of trustees to celebrate with a formal opening of the new building. This was found, however, to be impossible as some of the departments are not as yet wholy equiped, and until in first class condition the board does not wish to invite public inspection not that an excellent showing could not be-made, but that a much better one can be made later. Accordingly the opening was indefinately postponed.

One day this week a woman afflicted with consumption was found in most wretched quarters on west Main street. Her wasted form and weak voice told that life had about run its course. Her career has not been an uncheckered one, but she was found without food or medicine and in-her behalf a lady was sought whom it was thought would visit and assist her. After the case was stated to her and her assistance asked she replied:

I will not visit her I

do not think it my duty to do so. I am a Christian woman but I do not think that Christfanlty demands me to assist such a woman." It is a strange Christianity that is not broad and liberal enough to assist and lift ap the fallen it Is such Christianity that makes infidels of men.

John Beggs, one of the proprietors of the Terre Haute Brewing Company, was fleeced, on Thursday of §15 on the strength of a contract drawn between Himself and a man purporting to be named Humphreys, and proprietor of the Arlington Houso at Richmond, Ind. The contract was for the purpose of making Humphreys agent for Terre Haute beer at Richmond. Later in the day Mr. Beggs became suspicious of his man and telegraphed to the proprietor of the Arlington House asking if he was there. An' answer was received that he was. In the meantime Humphreys was on his way to St. Louis, but when he stepped off the train he was taken in custody by the police, who had been notified by telegram to arrest him. He will be brought to this city.

The'strlke which commenced a week ago last Monday on the Evansville fe Terre Haute railway, over a disagreement between the conductors and Master of Transportation Hurd on account of tho discharge of Conductor G. W. Lovejoy, was terminated Sunday night by a compromise between the grievance committee and Mr. Mackey, at Evansville. The terms of the compromise were not made public and there are many conflicting stories regarding the agreement. The conductors, howeyer, have been reinstated, four of them unconditionally and three others pending the charges against them. Lovejoy was suspended for ten days and Conductor Patrick Dean was discharged. It is generally understood that Mr. Mackey will hereafter hear all grievances of employes, and that Mr. Hurd shall ho longer have the power to employ or dlsoharge men. It is also claimed that another term of the agreement was that hereafter when a conductor is discharged a brakeman shall succeed him. Thus ends what for a time promised to be a most formidable affair.
