A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
MAN ABOUT TOWN.
A movement Is on foot to organize in
this city a "bi-cloride of gold" club, to be made op of graduates of the local gold cure establishment, and others throughout the country, It is said there are close on to thre* hundred of these graduates here, and the olub will be formed for the mutual benedt of the members, and to hold them together and maintain the interest in the cure that has wrought so much good. Among those who have graduated from the course are mechanics and professional men, and there are*not as many backsliders as one would naturally expeot. I know several men who have been permanently reformed by this cure, after throwing away several yearn of their life, who were in a fair way to become total wrecks. From habitues of the groggery they have become respectable citizens, and as they walk down street nowadays, wearing good clothes, with money in their pockets, and the air of men who are glad they are alive, they no doubt congratulate themselves that they have been able to overcome their former habits. You'd be surprised to know some of these graduates, for many prominent citizens are numbered in the ranks.
I remember seeing one of them coming up street last spring, walking like a blind man. And he was practically blind, too. The pupils of his eyes were distended, and he could hardly see where he was going. That was the effect the cure bad on him in its first stages, and he said he felt so miserably towards himself that he'd be glad if he could die. But a continuation of the treatment brought this feeling out of him, and now he's one of the best pleased' fellows in the world to think that he's rid of the habits that formerly bad such a strong bold on him. One day this week while he and I were standing on a street Corner talking, a drunken man wont reeling paat, so disgustingly drunk that the sight of him ought to have been a gold cure in itself. He,was pointed out as one of the backsliders from the cure, whose appetite had finally gotten the best of him. "He's a goner now," remarked my companion. "Only a few day^ago he was congratulating hlmaeif on belnjj? qured, but the desire for liquor fipally overcame, him, and when they do go back as badly as that, nine timds dot of.tan there'* no cure ior-them, He'll last but *llttl# while aBbWt fatej and then we'll hear of the terrible results of the gold cure. It'
on?, has a little backbone to go with it-*-and perhaps the beat oure is backbone, after all—if one can only apply lt." .:1
The business of telling household goods and furnishings on the installment plan Is getting to be quite an industry In this vicinity, but it requires the hardest kind of work and great discrimination. In faot, the successful dealer fn these lines must belike the deteotives, who have for their motto, "we never sleep." Not long ago one pt the local dealers g6t out of bed at three o'olook In the morning, and made a trip to St, Mary's, where he overtook one,of his customers who was trying to get away with lot of goods that had not been fully paid for. The man, of course, was compelled to gl,v« up he goods, and the dealer was correspondingly happy,
Business must be getting better. A Main street merchant told me the other day of a man ooming into hlB place of business and paying a bill of twentyseven years' standing It had long ago been placed ou the wrong side of the profit and loss aoomint. and to the merchant it was just like finding that much money.

Sheriff Stout is wither a very unfortunate official or very careless one—or both. Following closely on the attempted escape from jail recently—which was openly charged as the result of carelessness, he allowed Harry Sullivan to escape from him, while on his way to Jeflersonvllle, at Seymour, Thursday morning. Sullivan was under throe years* sentence, to the penitentiary.The sheriff went to sleep in the car, but took the extraordinary precaution of putting the prisoner next to the side of the car and then putting his legs across the seats to prevent egress. In the face of such unusual efforts to prevent his escape, the prisoner—who was hand-cuffed, had the temerity to step out of the seats, over the lens or the slumbering official, and then vamoosed. No traces of the fugitive have yet been found. The sheriff is wry sorry be went to sleep, and he ought to be, but that will not bring the prisoner back.
The murder of a young man named Andy Winterbotham, at Clinton Locks, a mining town in Parke county, Vigo's northern boundary, on Sunday, was followed by the murder of Levi Orrlchs, in Sullivan county, Vigo's southern boundary, on Monday. Winterbotham was «tabbed to death ly a man named

Harve Miller in a saloon fight. Miller escaped and took a gnn from a hunter he met in the woods, after which he forced a farmer to drive him toward this city. He was captured by a posse 'at Rosedaje Monday night. The Sullivan county tragedy grew out of a hone trade. Orridhs and his slayer, Henry Baysinger, were traveling horse traders, and had quarreled previously at Vincennes. When they met in Sullivan county, Baysinger shot bis man, and was immediately arrested and placed in jail. i' OBITUARY.

by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it* normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever uine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing bnt an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
