A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
MAN ABOUT TOWN.'
CfjS Have you ever noticed what a knack is in politics for a man to have a "nickname." A Aian may be an ideal •candidate in every respect, well-quali-fied for the position to which he aspires, honest, and all that, but with all these qualifications to commend him to the good graces of the people, he is yet ^stronger with them, or the bulk of .'lltyjm, If he has a nickname. Practicaljly, I suppose it doesn't make him many votes, bat it gives him a decided pull if, when he goes into a crowd and says, :"Hello! there, boys!" thev can slap him on the back and say in return,
,4How?
you, Jack," or "Wes," or "Billy," or ^something of that kind. A nickname helps a man a long ways toward being ythe "hale fellow well met" that every candidate aspires to be. No man votes 'for another simply because he can call him by a nickname, but the use of it -removes a barrier that would exist if \he were compelled to call him "Mr. So-*so-andso." Just go through the list of successful candidates with whom you ^are acquainted, and see how many of •.them you refer to quite naturally by their nicknames. "Chris" Ray wouldn't have been half as successful, probably, if his constituents had been compelled .to call him Centenary A. Ray, and the *same is doubtless true of Merrill N. ••Smitli, had he been called that in place *»of "Med." Then go on through the list wlth "Jake" Kolsem, "Jimmy" Fltzpatrick, "Billy" Stout, "Ben" Havens, \'"A1" Suhaal, "Dave" Taylor, "Jim"
Piety, "Dave" Henry, "Wes" Hauck, "Pasty" Goodwin, "Gus" Conzman, J./ .t"Jack" Walsh, "Fels," for Justice Fel--^senthal, and so on to the eud. It -^doesn't follow, as a matter of course, & that a man can't be successful unless he ,rhas a nickname, but it is a rule in local politics that the most successful candidates are those who are happily called by some nickname instead of the fall .1 J. "given" name with which they are J#^cbrIaton©tJ. It is near enough a rule, at least, that those of our young men who
vf^:
are figuring on breaking into politics f»will be wise if they be^in cultivating -^'tbe habit of having their friends call ',A ^them by some convenient nickname.
Visitors from Terre Haute to Chicago ^during the past few week* who were '^-rijaAgfortunate enough to witness the productlou of Oscar Wilde's play, "Lady
Windemere's Fan," at *the Schiller theater, were highly pleased by the act ing of a Terre Haute boy, who is promJuent in the cast. It is Howell iHansell, who was formerly in the Till.nois Midland general offices, when they were located here. He was quite prominent among the young people, was noted in the tiigh school as a bright, studious fellow, and when he left here for Cincinnati, to take a position in a railroad office there was general regret expressed. He gare no evidence here of beooming an actor, and there was much surprise when, several years ago, tgl it was learned that he bad given up a highly lucrative position to go on the sUge. He was through here several seasons ago with Modjeska, but he had only a minor character that gave him but little opportunity. Since then, how«ver, he has been pushing to the front, and iu the Frohuiau company be is really one of the "stars." He is self-pos-sessed and as ranch at home in the high society scenes of Oscar Wilde's play, as if he had never known anything else but to wear a dress coat, and indulge in the reparie* which is «upposed to be apart of high life in English society. He has a great many friends in this city, who would be glad to see him in a prominent part with a good company, but this is likely to be dented them, for the present season at least, for "Lady Windemere's Fan" plays only the large oities.
A LUCKY S7RIKE.
Nothing has happened of late years in the clothing trade to so completely upset all calculation based on formed experiencee as the remarkable sale now „f going on at A. 0, Bryce & Go's. A large wholesale manufacture! of fin© clothing in New York being forced to raise «uney quickly, concluded to put their stock on the market at retail in the
Urge cities at less than wholesale prices. Mr. Bryee being on the ground received a large consignment of this splendid stock which Is now being sold rapidly *t their store, 604 Wabash avenue, Terre Haute, Indiana.

Assignee H. J. Baker this week paid a dividend of twenty-five percent on the creditors' claims against the car works, the tocal payment being in the neighborhood of $50,000. It is gratifying to learn that repair work is coming in in such quantities as to make it likely that a force of two or three hundred men will be employed there during the winter, with a monthly pay roll of from $6,O00 $7,COO. Such a pay roll, while small compared to those when the works are in full operation, will be greatly appreciated bj- our business men

ANHEUSER-BUSCH WINS.
The Famous St. Xools Brewery Awarded the Prize at the World's Fair.
'Mi'
No award has ever been made so gratt-
to St. Louiat people and so justly merited as the one given to-day by the. Columbian jury of the World's Fair, consisting of connoisseurs and chemists of the highest rank, to the AnheuserBusch Brewing Association. By methods of unrivaled business enterprise, and by
the best material pro
duced in America and Europe, excluding corn and other adulterants or surrogates, the different kinds of the An-heuser-Busch beer have become the favorites with the American people, and have now conquered the highest awardin every particular, which had to be considered by the Columbian jury. The high character of the award given to-day by the jurors will be better understood when it is known that the different beers exhibited by Ihe Anheuaer-Buach Brewing Association had to compete with hundreds of the most excellent displays of other brewers. The fact that no other concern has received'so many points for the various .essential qualities of good beer confirms rfnew the firm's reputation as the leader of all American beers, and Mr. Adolphus Busch oan feel proud over this result so justly merited.
