Ringing

birds will add

a charm to tho scene. The programme cards are very beautiful.

The Polytechnic orchestra, composed entirely of students of the Rose Polytechnic institute, is one of the promising masical organisations of the city. Hie orchestra has appeared in public several times recently, and made a very good impression. Considering the fact that the young men spend thirty-five hours a week in recitation, and devote nearly as much time additional to the preparation of studies, their playing is surprlsingly excellent.

Workmen remodeling the old court house, came across the corner stone one day this week, and before the authorities were aware of what was going on, a good portion of the precious contents were distributed among the people gathered around the building. There wero various documents in the atone, among them copies of the dally Exprees of May Iltli and 26th, 186S. The eommlatloaart have called for the return ot the things of interest taken*

The formal opening of A. C. Bryce fc Co.'s clothing store, was held Thursday and was a complete success. A great many people visited the store daring the day, and in the evening a large crowd collected to hear the concert by the full Ringgold orchestra. Souvenirs of boquets and friendship ribbons were presented to those attending.

The annual banquet of the Light Guards, at the Terre Haute House, on Thursday evening, was of such an elaborate nature as to fully sustain the social reputation the organization has made for itself in past years. The spread was of the finest and everything was on a scale of excellence commensurate with the importance of the occasion.*

Death came to Mrs. Sarah C. Hunter, wife of E. Hunter, Monday morning at the family home in this city. She was 70 years of age, and leaves a husband and nine children, all residents of Terre Haute with the exception of one &>n who is in Washington, to mourn her departure. Sbe was born in Kentucky, but for fifty years her home has been in Sullivan aud Vigo counties.

A large number of coal operators, representing the Indiana and Illinois mining districts north of the O & M. railroad, were in the city Thursday and Friday. Their object was to come to some agreement for united action in fighting opposition during the next season. No arrangement satisfactory to all was made, it is said, and consequently another meeting will be held on the22d

The Easter services in the churches Sunday morniug were beautiful. The excellence of the music and profusion of the floral decorations were subjects of very general compliment, while the ser mons were of such a character as to hold the congregations with closest attention. The day wss not a typical Easter day, being a little cool and decidedly too windy. In consequence very few Easter dresses were worn.

The regular monthly meeting of the Society of Organized Charity, was held Thursday afternoon. The report of the secretary was made showing the ex penses during March to have been $53. 85.

The annoucement has been made that A. A. Hargrave, editor and proprietor of the Rockville Republican, will be a candidate for the nomination of state senator on tho Parke aud Vermillion county Republican ticket. "Lon" is well known in this city, and his many frienda wish him success in his eflort. He Is not only a good newspaper man but a thoroughly reliable citizen and capable Republican. He is a youug man, but ability and imt age is the qualification for the state senatorship and he therefore, has no superior for the place.

The benefit fair for St. Anthony hospital has been in progress at St. Benedict's school during the last four days, and will continue to-night. The success has been fully as great as anticipated. Tho attendance has increased each successive night, and the receipts have gone up in the same ratio. It is unwise to attempt estimating the net proceeds now, but they will be known in a few days. Supper will be served to-night and everybody is invited to partake of it. The object of the fair Is so praiseworthy that it has merited the hearty patronage shown.

The township elections on Monday were the most quiet that have bo$n bold in Vigo county for along time. Consequently the Democratic victory was compiote, for it is now a historic fact that Republican voters are the oi:es who stay away from the polos or quietly scratch their tickets on election day. The vote oast was lighter than last year, aud lighter than was anticijjaied. In Harrison township, Justice A. B. Felsenthal was the only Republlciitn elected. Trustee Poker was re-elected by 1218 plurality while O'Connoll, for assessor, received a majority of.163. In the county the Democrats elected ten out of twelve trustees, only Prairleton and Prairie Creek township going Republican. The following were the majorities:

The play at Naylor's opera house tonight is "A Royal Pass, or the Exile to Siberia." Every indication is that there will be a large attendance. Of the play, the St. Paul

Prel^says: "A Royal Pass, or the Exile to Siberia^' was

?heater,

iven*an excellent presentation at the Harris Minneapolis, last evening. The play is a strong one and George C. Stalev and his company made the most of It. "A Royal Pass" is elevated In tone and is interesting in its situations. The climaxes are thrilling. The moral aim of the dramatist Is conspicuous In the Impression left at the fall of the curtain. The play offers much that is new and attractive in the matter of plot, and the characters are portrayed with judgment and arttstlo effect. The play Is attractively mounted, the rich Interior in the second and third acts being especially striking. Mr. Htaley in the dual role of Ivan Zotoffand Andreas Hoffer, gave a finished performance his dialect is good and in his songs made a hit. Miss Maud Mldgely, as Countess Pavonla, was strong and forcible. Miss Ethel Barringfcon. as Vera Zotoff, gave a good portrayal of the suffering wife. Mr. Charles H. Mestayer, as Jarrowitz, inspector of Russian police and a nihilist at heart, gave a good portrayal of that role. The balance oi the cast acquitted themselves creditably.

FAUST. S1S8

The greatest musical treat of the season will be the production of "Faust" by the Emma Juch National grand opera company at Naylor's on next Monday evening. The sale of seats for the festival opened Thursday morning with a decided rush, and there undoubtedly will be one of the beat houses of the year The oompany has 125 members with an orchestra of thirty pieces under the leadership of Adolph Newendorf. The orchestra alone will be a great feature as it is composed of solo instrumentalists who have been responsible member* of such well-known organizations as the Theodore Thomas, Gilmore, Sidi, American Opera, Paris Grand Opera orchestras. The costuming of the opera will be carefully attended to, and will not only be elaborate and expensive, but historically correct. Some idea of the enormous expense attending this one branch of the Juch company may be gained from the knowledge that the costumes for the auxlliaiies in many cases cost over $150 for each person. The scenic effects of the production will be unusually fiine. Seats range from 60 cents to $2.00,

Thompson acts the part of Jane Eyre beautifully, bringing forth the light and shade of the character most distinctly. Her comedy is Infectious and her heavy acting superb She possesses the rare faculty of enlisting the sympathies of an audience and of holding It. The supporting oompany is excellent"
