MAY 13, 1893
FOURTH class postmasters continue Jto go and come at tbe average rate of some' thing like a hundred a day. Mr. Maxvwell is still very handy with his axe.
A CHICAGO man was given a verdict 'for $25,000 this week for tbe loss of a foot. This oity has a number of inhabitants whose beads it would willing ly lose for less money.
KANSAS would like to exchange a large portion of its Italian weather for a like quantity of Chicago's rain. As the trade would be of inestimable value to Kansas wheat and the World's Fair it Is to be regretted that it cannot be tnade.
PANICS in financial circles may come and go, but it is evident that the public credit Is secure, and that too in spite of the asinine conduct of the last congress. With good crops this year another prosperous season may be looked ior regardless of the administration.
THE president has again served notice on tbe office seekers that he sees too much of them, and that they must go homo and give him at least a little tiine to attend to business. This means that the man who persists in seeing Cleveland In search of office need expect no favors. The piesldent seems to know where ho is at, and the other fellows are in a fair way to find out.
THE new commissioner of peuslonp, Judge William Locbren, of Minnesota, entored upon the discharge of his dutieB this week. Ho annouueed that he had outlined no policy and formulated no theories, but woul^sliHpiy carry out existing laws. Hrv-entured tke opinion, Uoteever, that the pension roll ifcyoxoeedlngly large, when it is considered that tho war closed nearly thirty years ago.

PROBABLY It is as .the World's Sunday. If all accounts are true the robberies wliiob are committed on tho grounds should bo limited to as few days as posslblo. During the hottest days of tho last campaign the "robber tariff," as held up to view by the Democratic press, wasn't a circumstance compared with tho charges which are being extorted on the grounds.

SUSAN B. ANTHONY IS authority for the sansuranee that this country is on the vorgo of an era of unmarried women, and gives as her reason that women have become independent of raon and do not -care to carry. Probably ia her mind's eye Susan is the whole unmarried female ^portion of the population, and having long since bocomo a very anoieut chestnut her reason for spending the remainder of hor days In a state of single blessedness Is apparent.
TUK police judge of Indianapolis ^flned a man three hundred dollars this weok for carrying concealed weaponp, and the fluo was none too heavy. Men who go around in civilized community prepared at all times to commit murder are at their best when safely ensconced behind the bars. The law agaiust carrying concealed weapons cannot be to severe, nor can it be too strictly enforcod. The country needs a few more judg%» like tho Iudlanapo11s sample.
THOUSANDS of workingmen, many of them accompanied by thoir families, went to tho World's Fair grounds last Sunday, In the belief that the gates would be open, but found them closed, and went away In very ill humor. Sunday is the only day in the weok on which these people ean attend acd it is hardly f*?r to h«r them out. However, tho s»ak-« mu^h larger buntnos- kb* are oh^od, acd then tho '!,uroh are -ttlsfied, which l« a K'-emes uietft," and the will b»«.t grin and bear it.
THK policy of the pension bureau has been outlined by Acting Commissioner Murphy, who nays: "There is no doubt whatever that the disability act of Juna 27, 1S90, waa wofully misconstrued by the late Administration. Pension# allowed by that act range from I# to $12 por month, the latter amount boing the mjaximuai. It has been practically proved that thousands of pensioners are receiving 12 who are clearly not entitled to It, The law, if properly carried out, only allows a man $12 because his disability is a very serious one, and I know that such is not the ease in hundreds of instances* Every man who la entitled to a pension will g*t one, so far as this bureau is concerned, and no man's p#nslon Is going to be disturbed if he desert*# it. But one vhing is certain, that fxrcxf possible meaua will bo adopted to discover ©very case now on the pension roll where Use pensioner Us not entitled to the amount he is receiving, and these will be dropped."
THE PENNOYER INCIDENT. There fcaa been a grmt deal of talk con corning the weatrt eom-spondene* b* tween Secretary Gwsbarn and Governor Pennwer, Or*g«o, and ii *»*de public the republican papers of the
.country have lost no opportunity to poke fan at the administration on account of it. It appears that just before the Chinese exclusion act went into force the secretary of state telegraphed the governor of Oregon as follows: "Apparently reliable reports indicate danger of violence to Chinese when exclusion act takes effect, and the president earnestly requests yon will employ all lawful means for their protection in Oregon." To this the governor hastily replied: "I will attend to my business, let the president attend to his." Governor Pennoyer is a democrat, and it is probable that bis telegram was intended as a notice to tbe president that he is still a firm believer in the played out doctrine, so dear to the democratic heart, of states rights, and that the administration must not interfere. Those who attempt to uphold the governor at the expense of the administration are of a forgetful turn of mind. They fail to remember that should violence be done Chinamen in'Oregon tbe Chinese government would not look to the people of Oregon for redress, but to the government of the United States, and that being the case the Washington authorities were doing only their duty when they served notice on the State of Oregon that it was expected to do its duty in the premises. It has only been a short time since the United States was compelled to pay heavy damages for the murder of Chinese subjects on the Pacific coast. The killing of the Italians New Orleans is fresh in the memory of all. In that case &e president of the United States took a hand with tbe state authorities which called out a protest from the governor of Louisiana and the mayor of New Orleans, but the country was with the president in the matter, and the doctrine of states rights in such matters was not sustained. The Chinese exclusion act is a law of the United States, and it is the duty of the government authorities to see that it is enforced in a proper manr. It was not only the right but the duty of the administration to serve notice on tbe governor of Oregon that in the enforcement of the law no violence must be done the subjects of other countries, and in replying as he did Governor Pennoyer showed that the principal trouble with him was that In his make up his want of brain is fairly averaged by an over supply of gall.
AMUSEMENTS.
MB. AND MRS. ROBT. WAYNE. The eminent artists, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Wayne, supported by ono of the bost companies that has been in our city for some time, opened a week's engagement at Naylor's opera house last Monday ovonlng to ono of the most fashionable audiences that ever assembled with In its walls and the welcome accorded tbe artists WHS most cordial and most deserving, not alone because Mrs. Wayne Is ono of the fair daughters of Terre Haute, but because our .citizens are ever ready to recognize itfing ^^^i.torioiig ability, and Mr1. a in *tfrrn' 'ya proved themselves tfbrthy of the generous support of the public. Thay have gone into the front rank of their profession, not by 98tentatlous aids or by force of capital, but by hard work, studious endeavors to win by merit alone, and they are now reaping their reward. The play selected for tho opening was "Forgiven," and to say that it was presented in a manner equal to the original production here, hardly does this company justice. In fact, tbe eutire repertoire of plays for the week have been presented with a care to detail and completenes-i that many of the so-called metropolitan oompanies would do well to copy. In looking back over the week's business it is moat impossible to say which play waB best. They were all so admirably done that they were all best. Perhaps "Queena" gives Mrs. Wayne the best opportunity. Uer performance is a delightful one, full of tho glow and color and tone of genuine pathos and comedy, the firm quality of sentiment with which each soene enacted find correspondent elements in her own naturo, and she is Joyous or pathetic with a sincerity that gives charm and truth to her impersonation. As Walter Huntington, Mr. Wayne has a part that fits his manly appearance and commands the highest praise—«n admirably balanced, artistie performance, delicately true in its expression of nature. The costuming ol the plays were simply elegant, Mrs. Wayne displaying some of the loveliest toilets that have been seen this season. In fact it is hard to find a fault in any of the productions, either in costuming, acting or stage mounting. They tfre all most complete and establish the Wayne company as one that we shall look for ith pleasurable anticipation at all »es.
Performing animals are always entertaining. One of the most interesting features of a circus is always the exhibition of fine animals, horses, and especially when they are well trained.
