Watch Out.

in grocery stores, in cooking schools, or by in your kitchen, other baking powders are recommended or urged upon you in place of the Royal, reject them.

AMUSEMENTS.

-W. H. CRANE.

When Mr. Crane looked out on the splendid audience that greeted him last night as "The Senator," and responded to the enthusiastic encores, he must have regretted that he had given Terre Haute the go-by for so many years. It was his first appearance here since he and Robsoii gave us the "Comedy eft Errors." It is safe to say that no more enjoyable performance has been given here this season. Such a combination of good acting, pretty girls and handsome costumes has not been seen here for along time, and while Mr. Crane, as Senator Rivers, was the center of interest, not a member of bis company is any less a star. Crane fills exactly the popular idea of the Western bonanza Senator, who wonld perhaps be a statesman if be had time. It is exaggerated, perhaps, but right now when we are willing to believe anything of our Senators it doesn't strike an audience as being such a ridiculous creation. When we go to see our political system represented on the stage we want it broad as possible, and the "Texas Steer" statesman, Hon. Barnwell Slate, and Senator Rivers strike the public fancy a center shot. If Mr. Crane, after the reception given him last night, continues his neglect of us, he has not the eye to business that Senator Rivers had with him at all times.

THE DISTRICT FAIR.

The latest of A. Y. Pearson's productions, "The District Fair," will be presented to-night at Naylor's Opera house. It is saidlo be one of the best productions ofTts kind on the stage. It has enough of the sporting element in it to make a sporting drama such as the great hurdle race, where two horses jump over several hurdles at full speed and in full view of the audience, yet it portrays characters which are full of pathos and comedy, and which are familiar to everybody. The scenes are laid in New England, and are entirely different from any yet produced. The play leads up to "The District Fair," whioh is to come off in a New England town. One of the most thrilling scenes is where the horse "Victor" is locked up in a burning blacksmith shop, and where the jockey, finding he cannot break the strong oak door, covers the horse's head with his coat, jumps on his back and dashes through the door at full speed, smashing the strong oak door iuto splinters. The scenery is entirely uew aud carried by the management.

Owners of real estate will also be designated in same department.

New Grocery Firm.

Frank Hensley and Ben DeBaun hav purchased the grocery of W. T. Byers, at the old N aylor stand at Fourth and Ohio streets, and after a thorough refitting have epened up with a fresh new stock of Staple and Fancy Groceries, and respectfully solicit a share of the public patronage. They have a full line of everything usually found in a first-class grocery establishment, and at the prices named by them, they can make it worth any man's while to give them a trial. The "Naylor stand" is one of the most popular locations in the city, and the new proprietors hope, by strict attention to business and a careful outlook to the interests of their patrons, to not only h^d all the old customers but attract many new ones. If you are not already a patron it will pay you to give the new.firm a trial, for you are sure to be well treated.

Markle A Dietrich, the energetic electricians, this week secured the contracts for the lighting of the areh in the new Washington avenue Presbyterian church, and the new Hirzel hotel. They are wide awake and competent, and for this reason are doing the bulk ot the electrical work here in Terre Haute.

When garments are not faded, Chemical Cleaning, as we do it, imparts to the fabric a newness and life unattainable by any other process.

After cleaning, the garments areWorougly pressed by the best tailors that money can procure, this giving them altogether the appearance of new clothes. HrXTER LACXDKRrS*? Altu DTKTNO CO.,
