TOWN TALK.
A DECISION WHICH DECIDED TO THE SATISFACTION OF ALL MEN.
Now that« Bald on Vicious Llfceiature has been Cammenced let theOoo^ Work Proceed—Tlic Health Beard an* the Council —Some Opera IXonse Jfalwrnce*.
Abont three months ajfo a paper alleged to be published In Chicago made its appearance on the streets here and through Its libidinous -character succeeded in building up a large circulation among those whose natures run to lusta^d lascivlousness. It was allowed to run its course until three weeks ago, when two young men in charge of the Torre Haute bureau were arrested on a charge of criminal libel. One of them, a stranger, was convicted,aand being impecunious was sent to jail indefault ef payment of his fines. The other, a resident of the city, was released on a promise to have nothing more to do with the sheet. Two weeks ago when the paper arrived in tho city and was taken from tho pout-office it was promptly seized by tho police and consigned to the Are. Last Saturday it arrived again, but was allowed to remain in the post office. Late in th^ evening an attorney, said to be from Kansas City, appeared boforo Judge McNufct and asked him to Ibsuo an injunction temporarily restraining tho police from seizing the Issue when removed from the government building. It was a smooth trick on the part of an artful dqdgor to get a vile publication in circulation under the cloak of a temporary injunction. A copy of tho issue in question was filed with the petition, and it bore evidence of having been prepared specially for the occasion. Othor copies of previous dates were produced'by counsel for the authorities, and tho battle commenced. Tho oaso was arguod pro and con. It was represented.to the, court that a temporary order was all the plaintlft wanted In order to enable him to sell his paper, after which he would be ready to abandon proceedings until another attemptwas made at seteure. The judge postponed further hearing until Monday when the lawyers wont at it again, and it was not until Wednesday that olslon was reached but when it did eomo it covered the wholo ground, and covered it completely.
It Is uot often that a court renders a decision which gives satisfaction to every person except the defeated party to It, but that Is just what Judge Mc KuLL'm did. Tho-finding, In short, was that the shoet is not a newspaper in the logal sense of the word, and that Its contents are not of and do uot deal with matters of public concern. "That it is,' said the court, "chiefly naad? up of private scandals, accounts of intrigues in which private, of ton obscure persons are said to llgure, hints and lnuuudos In which persons are, It should seem, given to understaud that their sins have found them out and that an expoBure"wlll follow, If they do not mend their paces, etc., ©to., Is too plalu and obvious to be denied. Nor have I been blind to the fnot that all this Is printed ostensibly, professedly, for the beneficent purpose of reforming the wrong doer. Tho pretense Is not very well calculated, If it was meant to deceive anybody, tho least expeilenoed In tho world. InH»td it were better calculated to suggest a scheme of blackmail than a purpose of reformation, I am constrained to the conviction that the Sunday Sun is a vicious publication and oilly vlcltus." In conclusion the decision ^ays: "Whoever cornea here asking equitable relief must come with clean hands, or go away •empty. 01 ©ah hands, clean skirts and cleanness in all parts, the Sunday Son is sadly wanting, according to this answer, which I hold sufficient and must overrule the demurrer," Of course toe "attorney" for the paper catne up smiling and was granted thirty days in which to take further proceedings. .Then he went down to the postofflce and took out. the belated papers. At the door he was met by an officer who relieved him of further trouble by loading them on the patrol wagon, sending them the way of tho transgressor,
It is understood that it is the intention of the police to follow the good •work to the end, and In it they will receive the commendation of all good citi*ens. The paper was compelled to leave tvansaa City some time ago and take up Its quarter* elsewhere. Whereover it goes I ta character is such that it must continue to battle for existence. Legally it is continually in boiling water, just as it is here at the preaent time. Its sources of information are anonymous scribblers in whose hands no person la safe, and it is on such information that private character is attacked for lb© tin uncial assistance of some blackguard who#© only protection against his victims is his skill lu keeping out of their way. Even the representatives in towns where the paper la circulated keep oat of the way, their discovery being quickly followed by an irresistible desire to move on. Having never boon here the editor cannot bo indicted and extradited from Illinois tor

trial here. It is a strange peculiarity of the law, but so it is, and that is the only reason why this man Preston is not prosecuted here on a criminal charge. The fact that his appearance here would be the signal for bis arrest is the reason why he failed toappear In his proceedings agalns£ the police, and for the same reason he will not appear here as plaintiff in a suit for damages for the destruction of his property. It Is to be regretted that a considerable number of people are to be found in every community to make the publication of a paper profitable which devotes all its space to matter which is libelous scandalous, obscene and indecent, cater ing to the tastes of the viclouBand crlm lnal, while papers which devote all their attention to the best interests of the community have a constant struggle to make both ends meet, and continue in existence.
It seems that everything is not alto gether lovely between the board of health for the city and the city dads. It appears that quite recently it has been discovered that the alleys are teeming with filth, and that the town is in the worst possible sanitary condition Imaginable. It is true that months ago* tho health board was given unlimited power to adopt sanitary rules and regulations, and also enforce them. But it seems the board doesn't understand its power and wants more, so at the last meeting of the council it was agreed that the health board and the' council Banltary committee would act together and proceed without any further delay to put the city in good sanitary condition. It is true that in view of recent experience with diphtheria that the move at this time is very much like the old tale of lockhig the stable door after the horse has been stolen. Filth always breeds disease, and the filthy condition of the city has been known for many months. The police have served several hundred notices on oltizens to clean up, but it was the rule to disregard them. One attempt wns made to prosecute In a case where no hoed was paid to tbo notice, but through a mistake In making the complaint the defendant escaped, and since, then no attempt has been /.to enfor(^|tha^Brdlnanwi! or the .or* el

Somebody is to blame for this. Who Is it? The streets and alleys should have boon cleaued last summer when the weather was good, and when it could have been done with muoh leas trouble than at presents But the filth has been allowed to accumulate and become mixed with tho soil until a thorough oleanlng is impossible. However, it is probably better late than never, and it is to be hoped the council committee and the health board will accomplish something.
The audience on the lower floor of the opera house on Thursday night wasoonslderably annojed by the presence of a party of boors whose conduct was such that no one near tbeui could take any interost in the proceedings on the stage. The most touching portions of the play were received "by the male portion of the crowd with Idiotio snickers or tW guffaw of a bulToou. Conversation between them was carried on in an ordinary tone, and when it ilagged between acts one of them would get up and stumble over every one In the name row of seats with him In his frantic desire to get down stairs for a drink. The worst of It is thnt with fellows of this kind remonstrance amounts to nothing. They are shameless, and when a rebuke is administered instead of bringing a blush to the cheek and slleuce to the tongue It only makes them worse. Their idea of enjoyment seems to be an ability to attract In an unpleasant manner attention to themselves and cause discomfort who attend public entertainments they are the worst, although there are others to all around them. Of all the nuisances who are bad enough—forexatnple, those who come late and spoil one scene by making another in reaching their seats. Then there is the fellow who chewB tebacco and expectorates all around him. Or it may be the kind friend who has seen the play before and insists on tell ing yon all abont it in a stage whisper which can bo he^rd distinctly several stmts away. The most common one, however, is he who springs from his scat the moment the curtain goes down and rushes down stairs to borrow a clove frorfl a man on thesldewidk. But he is no worse than the other fellow who commences making preparations to leave several minutes before the curtain go«* down on the last act. Bat as all these nuisances seem to be necessary evils who are indicted an an amusement loving public it Is to be presumed that they must be endured as long as the theatre exists.

WOMAN'S WAYS,
CHRISTMAS BELONGS DISTINCTIVELY^ TO THE LITTLE ONES.
A Few Hint* Regarding the Purchase Presents—The Husband »ould Opt Leaxt One Present for His Wife *U
Wonld be a Surprise—Suitable Gl
No month of the year is sod is tin ly the children's month as is Decet^iltaj& From its beginning to its ending Joji? niles own the streets, the shops$ pie homes. Bless their dear little hearls! Christmas comes but once a year, and if they cannot, at least, revel for thirty days in anticipation of its coming and regret at its going, why, then, life has become much to prosaic and needs a moral revolution to set it in tune again. The bachelor must be very crusty, the spinster very crabbed, and the man or woman of affairs very much engrossed in worldly transactions that cannot stop for a moment to enjoy with the children the happiness this season affords. Just to look at the fcroup of eager little folks with faces pressed olose against some window, where toy soldiers form ^n royal battalions, or a model yard exhibits suoh adorable wooden cows and hox&es, is enough to make one forget all the years that have rolled between the time when they, too, were wholly engrossed in the prospective visit of the children's saint and the present, when SantaClaas, along with other youthful illusions, has been relegated to the back shelf in the cupboard of memory. To hear the child-
that has no minor undertone of sorrow or jangling chords of discontent. Even the very poor, Whose tiny stockings may be left hauging empty on Christmas morning, cannot be deprived of the wOjderful sights the shop windows afford, and which are to them a source of oontinual delight, making them forget cold and hunger even in tho contemplation of some wonderful im hunical toy or funny doll clowu whoa,$ antics make thorn laugh aud clap tt ol* benumbed fingers with joy. Therir.We, if meager little arms push you to sldo, or armies of little folks obstruct ho aiaJ^jajgr obscure the counters be oering that to some thenar signts freciy offered are the only Christmas gifts they are likely to receive.

Of course from now on to Christinas every one will be engrossed more or less in preparation for that joyful event. To those women who always have so mach shopping to do and so little time in whiqh to accomplish it let us suggest a £lan that has proved helpful to others and may act In as good stead to them. To begin with, get apiece of paper and set down at the top of It the amount you are privileged to spend. Then putdown the names of those whom you intend to remember and the articlo or articles to be bought for each opposite the name. Do a little mental calculation, or if you are not good at arithmetic, figure out with pencil and paper just how much you can spend on each person. These preliminaries attended to you have a list with the persons' names, the gifts intended for each, opposite them and finally just what you can spend for every individual article. Keep this list always by you and whenever you happen Into a store and see what you want corresponding in price with what you thought to give, buy it, cross off tbat article from the list and there is one less to worry about. There are only two weeks in which to get the shopping done and with this helpful method it will be nearly if not quite, completed, before the frantic rush begins. Jf you could only start such a list directly after this Christmas for the next one you would be surprised how much further your money would go, owlnjj to the out-of-season bargains you would thus be able to obtain that at holiday time cost double. But, then, some folks argue they would not feel as though it were Christmas if they weren't out until the night before, hurrying and scurrying to purchase the last few things. To those this plan will not appeal, but there are many who will be most grateful for the helping hint thus given.
Christmas time is always a most vexa tions period for the men of the family— what with the demands on them for extra money and their desire to do something right down nice, combined with their ignorance as to the best way of going about it, they are in a fix which they usually wriggle out of by saying "Here, my dear, take $50 and go and buy something for yourself. I don't know what you want and a man always feels such a silly in a store with a lot of girls asking him questions he hasn't the most remote idea how to answer." Now, dear generous cpan, this is all very nioe for one gift, bui just you go before tho rush begins and pick opt something entirely your own taste that you mean to surprise the little wife with on Christmas morning. It may not cost over a dollar, but it will be warmly appreciated, we can assure yon. Money Is always an acceptable pift, bat titers Is something in a foolish little woman's heart that responds with a world of tendarnens to
Christmas season. Remember busy, kind-hearted but thoughtmasculines, if it is only a handkerpair of gloves, a pretty brooch or tie of perfume, be sure that you Stored away for the best woman in orld some little gift that will surher by its wealth of kindly mean|rhen Christmas morning dawn?.
course we all appreciate a gift be :e of the spirit that prompts it, but i,w much more we will think of it if it ^something that just corresponds with olir^needs, fills some gap long unoocup$ed, and is a suitable as well as loving remembrance. Knowing this, therefore, 1q$ a word of caution fall upon the ears or would-be buyers of gifts, and perhaps itiwill aid them as well as being a kind word dropped by the way in Dehalf of th(J»e who have stored away in bureau drawers or closets absolutely useless prints that have accumulated from yell to year. Don't buy things because th'fjy are cheap or lecause they especially appeal to your individual taste. Think of the occupation and inclination of the ones for whom they are intended and purchase accordingly. A sachet bag, redolent of violet powder and pufled up
fotfanythingp ^J. don't give it to your grafadmother on tbat account. To her a plain cloth affair to hold her spectacles and her knitting wouid be a gift genuinely appreciated. Don't buy one of swell silver snake rings for yotir J^b|r, he is in all probability not a dude ^df|tnjgbt take it for a napkin ring. it as pretty and dainty presents as u.r mouey will let you, but don't buy |p&pgroj>rlHtQ ones. If you give your fian^e or some man friend a sofa pillow yif||aa littlo work as is possible and atible wiih your effervescent affocti&mon it. He would prefer one of
recwgniZKtiio ~-. back, as the case might be, than a satin or plush bit of prettlness loaded with embroidery aud trimmed with ribbons that find no favor in bis eyes, as they pereist In getting Into his ears whenever bo is courageous enough to attempt to rest his head on the over-decorated surface.
The old Barrick residence, at 1706 north Seventh street, has been remodeled, enlarged and its surroundings have been changed and improved so that it is beyond recognition. It is now known as the Terre Haute Sanitarium. It is for the treatment of the sick who are not afflicted with infeotious or contagious diseases, who have no homes and who wish systematic treatment without any of the annoyance which surrounds sickness in a boarding house or hotel. At present it has twenty rooms in which thirty patients can be accommodated. The rooms are well lighted and ventilated,Vlth painted floors and a drugget in thecenter each the furniture is plain but good, and everything Is neat and clean. An eleotrlcbell is at the band of each patient, and night and day there is a nurse at hand to answei1 all calls. Whoever goes there selects his or her own medical attendant, and each can have his own nurse if he so desires. The sanitary condition of the building is excellent,the management having provided for thorough drainage by a laying a vitrified pipe sewer along Seventh street to Lafayette, a distance of ovfer 1,700 feet. Surrounding the building is a specious
yard,

who stands charged with the commission of nearly every crime in the calendar, was turned over to Siheriff Hlxon, of Gurtbrie, Oklahoma, last Monday and the same night the officer started home with his man. Two attempts were made to procure Wyatt's release here la& Saturday aad Monday through writs of habeas oorpus. Sheriff Stout bad been holding him for Sherifl Bou sail, of Edwards county, Kansas, where Wyatt is wanted for murder, and to whom the governor of this state refused to issue a warrant, having previously honored the requisition of the governor of Oklahoma. On this writ Judge McNutt ordered the discharge of the prisoner, but he was immediately rear rested on the Oklahoma charge, whioh is trivial. The Kansas authorities are endeavoring to have the governor of Okla homa turu the prisoner over to them, and it will probably be done.
