TERRE HAUTE APRIL 1, 1893.

ALREADY the Indiana Republicans have commenced making arrangements for the campaign of 1896. The Washington colony has mapped oat a plan which has for iU object the nomination of exPresident Harrison for the presidoncy and Charle3 W. Fairbanks for the goyernorshlp. It also includes the permanent retirement form politics of Dudley, Huston, Michner, Peele, Ransdell, Chambers and tho Gresham followers, and names as the futuie leaders New, Neboker and Hart. While it may be true that the early bird catches the unwary worm it is not generally the case that the early candidate captures the nomination and it not infrequently happens that the best laid plans of the politician are often eternally thwarted by the chilling blast of disappointment. The political schemer has had his day in this country. He may engineer his schemes through all the conventions in the land, but he can't always deliver the votes.

A LETTER from New York this week says: "Last week's death rate exceeded anything ever known in the history of this city, and heaven knows what is coming. There was never such apparent unconcern on the part of the officials as is now charged, even in the profligate days of Tweed. There is no particular charge of corruption, as in those times, but there is no doubt plonty of it. But neglect is everywhere. The filthy streets, worse than was ever before known, have bred disease until tho grip, pneumonia and typhoid fever are almost, if not quite, epidemic. Naturally the bad weather has had much to do with the alarmiug increase in mortality, but the want of good government has had muoh more' to do with it." If this statement is true tho Gothemltfs will not only have to guard against cholera coming from without, but will have a hard time suppressing It within.

A PROPHETESS,Jwho, judged by her utterances, doesn't seem to have any honor anywhere, says there is a pretty hard time in store for Chicago. Among other things she predicts theeleotlon of Carter Harrison by 40,000 majority that within the next three months seven men high in the councils of the nation will die, and that the windy city will experience two bloody riots before the snow flies and be swept by two cyolonos. In addition to these tho same authority can also see cholera smiting down the people in the city by tho lake. If Chioago can only escape the calamity of th# eleotlon of Carter Harrison she could probably stand the remainder of the predictions, but in any event she should hire another prophet who will tako a more roseate view of the the situation.

THE Kansas Populists have held another indignation meeting at which it was decided to notify President Clove* land that Senator Martin is not one of them, and that they want no "sop" thrown to them through him as bait. Anything in that line must come through his whiskers, PefTer, whom they have selected as tho presidential adviser. In consequence Senator Martin finds himself In the same position ssthe Almighty when Audy Johnson declared himself a self-mads man—relieved of au immense responsibility.

FOR real, fresh news go away from home. Hear tho Chicago Inter-Ocean: "Democrats down at Terra Haute charge that as "Knights of the Goldea Cirole," in 1861, they raised $900 to purchase arms, and sent Johu E. Riley to New York to buy the armory. John never came back neither did the guns nor the |900. This oharge is made by Democrats against the man who has been appointed Minister to Belgium by President Cleveland." Now who in the Sam Hill la Johny Riley, and when was ho appointed minister to Belgium?

CRNTKNNIAIJS are now the order of the day. An eastern genius, who has achieved considerable notoriety in that line, proposes a oontonnial of the birth of Christ in Jerusalem in 1900, and has commenced preparations for it. According to bible history the world will be 5900 years old in IStfc. In these fast times seven years is too long a time between centennials, especially when such an Important event as the birth of tke world can be made a centennial threb years hence.

^AMUSEMENTS.

A BREEZY

TOIE.

Fltz & Webster assisted by their comedy associates will appear at Naylor's Tuesday evening in their musical comedy, "A Breezy Time." The adjective that is included in the title of the farce comedy "A Breezy Time" fitly indicates the nature of the production. It has been the purpose of the author to make the performance breezy—simply refreshing enough to revive Jaded minds without causing the mind to sit in the draught, so to speak. The company Is headed by E. B. Fltz and Kathryn Webster, and includes, besides, half adozen otherperformerswhohave made individual hits in various farce comedy organizations within the last four years.

ROBERT eAYIXH AS "SPOBT M'AIXISTKR." At Naylor's on Thursday evening, April 6th, there Is a great treat in store for all who like to laugb, when Bobert Gaylor, the famous comedian, will appear in his great comedy success, "Sport McAllister, one of the 400." The comedy is said to be constructed for laughing purposes only and it has made a brilliant record of over fifty consecutive nights in New York. All the leading cities of the United States and Caaada have seen "Sport McAllister." There is not a more original genius on the stage than Robert Gaylor. His comicalities are entirely his own, and although many comedians try to give imitations of him their attempts are a failure. His style and mannerisms are so entirely different from all other comedians, that it is entirely Impossible to give anything like a correct imitation of him. His magnetism is wonderful and catches his audience the moment he appears before them. The company supporting Mr. Gaylor is spoken ot in the highest terms of praise and there is no doubt that the attraction will play to a crowded house during its engagement here, coming as It does*with its New York indorsement of achieving a comedy triumph at the Broadway Rijou Theater. The seat sale opens on Tuesday morning at Button's book store.

FABIO ROMASI.

On Friday evening next this popular drama will be presented at Naylor's by acompetent company. The play is a dramatization of Marie Corllll's novel the "Vendetta," which was published in the Mail a few months ago "The Tale of the Dead" as it is related by Aiden Benedict, is a very interesting story.

The

interest is much strengthened

by the dramatic production of the piece. The company is a strong one, and fully capable to give a thoroughly food representation of the play. Thedqpble role of Fablo Roman! and Conte Casare Ollva is assumed by Mr. Walter Lawrence. Nina, the weak, faithless woman is very naturally portrayed by Miss Frances Field. A special feature is the skirtdancing of Szerina, whose only rival is Carmencita. The play has scored an immediate success. The stage settings are said to be particularly beautiful and effective. Seats will be on sale Wednesday.

ELK'H MINSTBEI.S.

The Qrst'annual minstrel entertainment to be given by Terre Haute Lodge No. 80, B. P. O. Elks occurs on Thursday evening, April 18th, and no local entertainment that has ever been given in this city has been talked about more or better advertised than this one. The gentlemen having charge of the show have spared no expense in properly presenting the entertainment and they fully believe that the Idea of not

Belling

tickets before hand,

except at Button's book store, Is a commendablo feature and will strike the general public tho same way. With laughter, jest and song a number of well known business and professional men will lay aside their dignity to tako up the mask of Momus and for a few briefhoursstrutthemlmlcstage.

Thoability

already displayed In the rehearsals which have been held nearly every night for the last two weeks, is a remarkable tribute to the versatility of the members of No. 80. The singing in tho first part will be exceedingly fine, and includes a tenor solo by Mr. Paul Gilbert, of the Greencastle college of music* who possesses a remarkably sweet voice a bass solo by Mr. Wilbur Starr, also of Greencastle a soprano solo by Mr. Ellsworth Cook, and a barltono solo by Will Katzenbacb. Messrs. Cook ftnd Katzenbach are well-known to our theater-goers. Mr. Gilbert and Mr. Starr are from the Greencastle college of music, and will moro than please. They come highly recommended, both having made concert tours. In tho olio will be seen Prof. Eaton in an original musical sketch, Frank H. Cooper in a new entertainment of fun, Will Hamilton and Frank Buckingham In a negro sketch introducing a new topical song composed by Will Hamilton and arranged by John Hager, entitled, "Not in this world now." The sketch will bo followed by Prof, and Mme. Lemairo in a scientific fencing bout with foils and broad swords. Performance concludes with John Hagar and Adolph Gagg's side-splitting burlesque, "Cabooso I. Kalif of Whltellnecitl," introducing the entire company and tho little plclnnanies Masters Helnl and Moorehead. The music in tho burlesque was arranged by John Hager and tho dances by Prof. Duenweg.

MOTES.

"The Royal Guard," composed of T. J. Griffith, Geo E. Pugh, RobertBrldgefoid, Charles Duffln, Charles Early, Geo. Hughes and Ed. Westfall, under colonelship of Lon Duddleston will make a hit. If you miss seeing roll call and inspection you will miss half your life.

The "Highrolllan Dance,"arranged by Prof. Duenweg, wlU.be executed by Romeo Weinsteln, Charley Miller, D. L. Watson, Albert Elnicke, Arthur Grlswold, Ross Bronson, Clarence Merritt. Robert X* Hayman, Cam Buntln, Geo. N. Kramer and Cliff Westfall. The music is by John Hager and is a gem.

Another pretty dance will be executed by Will Parrett, who assumes the role of "Caboosina, daughter of the Kalif/' Themanner in whieh Will executes this difficult dance will astonish all who see him.

Adolph Gagg, Lon Duddleston, E. E. South, Will Hamilton and Cham Whlt« all have good parts in the burlesqn©.

One of the pleasing features of the olio will be the fencing bout with foils and broad swords Introduced by Prof, and Mme. Lemaire. They are both artists in every sense of the word, and their act alone is worth the price of admission.

Take, for instance, the well known firm of Finkblner ft Duenweg, hardware merchants, of 528 Main street. A trip through their large establishment shows that their stock in every department is the largest and most complete to be found in the city. There ia nothing in their line which cannot be found there, and their prices are always reasonable. When you want hardware of any description give them a call. 3T
