TERRE HAUTE. IND., APRIL 21, 1894.

"A YANKEE IN GRAY." The above is the title of a very Interesting serial story that will begin in The Mail next week. It is the latest and most fascinating story of C. B. Lewin, "M. Quad." Probably the most fascinating of all themes io the hands of a skillful novelist is the late fratricidal contest between North and South. The curious) social complications which it caused a fiord unlimited opportunities for plots, scenes and incidents of surpassing interest. No romancer has made better use of these opportunities than has M. Quad in his new story. The story abounds in daring deeds, thrilling adventures, romance and love. The plot is superbly developed and keeps the reader on the qui vive. The title is in itself sufficient to attract attention and arouse interest, and no Mail reader should mins the opening chapters.

MADELINE POLLAUD has more well wishers than ever before now that she says she has no intention of going on the stage, but that on the contrary will seek seclusion.

EX-SI'KAKER REED believes that all things come to him who waits. The Democratic house has adopted the famous Reed rule for counting a quorum. The night of the day this was done this week the ox speaker attended a performance at the theater where the audience cheered him as he walked to his seat.

The ''seventeen year locusts" which we are to lmve this year are not the "seventeen year locusts" we had last year. A wise entomologist of the agricultural department has explained this strange paradox by which every year, or, at farthest every two or three years, the locusts supponed to appear but once in seventeen years are with us. They are 'different broods!

THE small pox problem in Chicago has become a serious one. Early this w*ek there wore 200 cases in that city. The pest house WHS overcrowded and the county hospital had been put into usr. The newspapers have finally begun com ineiitiUK on the presence of the disease, and while they say that the situation is grave there is no oceaslou for undue alarm that the nnmhurof oases is large only because.the city itself is a big one.

THE deaths ol prominent men often come in groups. Within two days three men died whose names were familiar to all the people—David Dudley Field, General Hlocum and Senator Vance, of North Carolina. It will be recalled that Ben Butler died while Blaine's death was hourly expected and so Intent was the public waiting for word from the latter's sick room that Butler's death was givHti but small newspaper space comp«red with what at another time would have beeu devoted to it.

DAVID DUDLEY FIELD, who died this week furnished one of several striking Instances of the failure of great lawyers to make their influence felt when serving In congress. When he took his seat in the forty-fourth congress, the one which created the electoral commission to count

the

he quickly lost prestige,

became a picturesque and interesting figure In the house and dropped out without leavingany mark In legislation. He was, in truth, too great a lawyer to become a politician such as most socalled lawyers really are who figure prominently In the national body of law makers.

THK Christian church, or the Church of the Disciples, has a Brlggs case on its hands. Professor Garvin, of Butler University, Indianapolis, has been teaching doctrines that a majority of the Christian ministers do not endorse. At the convention of the Third missionary district at Craw fordsville, a petition asking him to resign from the university was signed by all present. It was resolved that It is the judgment of the eonrention that the churches should reject all teachers who teach any of the following Garvin doctrines: Repentance before faith tn the salvation of sinners 12) Baptisms of Holy Ghost and fire as taking place now (8) Judaism as being the religion of humanity and Christianity as only anew spirit put into it {4) That the death of Christ had no more to do with the salvation of men than of any other man (5) That the gospel of Christ is only a power among other powers In the salvation of men."

ON TO WASHINGTON.

As the various commonweal and Industrial armies get nearer to Washington the curiosity of the people is on edge as to what will happen to the members of the armies whose object in joining in the march must have been of the vaguest sort. Coxey, the first to suggest these availless enterprises, said he wanted to present a liviug petition to congress in behalf of good roads and many other things. The leaders of the Industrial armies want congress to pass measures which will afiord relief to the poor and unemployed. Congress cannot, of course, care for these impoverished armies. If once entered upon such a policy of government charity would lead to a monster appeal for aid from all over the country.

As to the futility of legislation in bettering the conditiou of the people there can be no doubt that wise or unwise laws have more or less effect for better or worse but that effect is exaggerated. This country is very big, its people are engaged in widely diversified pursuits and their natural advantages are such that they will eventually prosper even under the most injurious laws. When

opinion on the judge's decisions It so happens that cases which were appealed from the Circuit court over which Judge Gresham presided are being passed upon at this term of the Washington tribunal. So far there have been seven reversals and not one affirmation. On Tuesday of this week ExSenator Edmunds, whose record as chairman of the senate committee on judiciary easily establibhed his reputation for being wise in the law, was arguing in behalf of the Inter-State Commerce Commission on an appeal from Judge Gresham's decision. The exsenator is reported to have been very sarcastic in his references to the decision which virtually nullified the law by a strained interpretation of the constitutional right of witnesses to refrain from testifying on the ground that they might, incriminate themselves.

WE would very much enjoy a stirring and indignant protest from Joe Jefterson, or some other member of his profession, which should in part vindicate the stags from the disrepute it is brought into by the managers who are bidding high for Madeline Pollard. While it is true thatshe would be "a drawing card," and that fact is to the discredit of the thousands who would contribute thousands of dollars to see her, yet it is also true that there is a large and honorable body of men and women in the profession who are artists and who have just pride in the drama. This is a good time for them to have a hearing. Perhaps it ill becomes a newspaper to use words of reproach for the managers who would cater to a prurient public for the money that could be made by so doing because newspapers all too generally have been doing the same thing in this Pollard affair, but still it can be said that a man like Joe Jefferson could protest against the demoralizing tendency of the panderers who are connected with the stage.

-A-11 Advertising Swindle.

A lady in this city recently answered one of the advertisements which promised $30 to §75 a week, the work to be done at home. She learned that the money was to be made by the sale of a certain polishing stuff, and she was to advertise for agents, to whom she would furnish the goods. She actually expended $30 for the first installment of stock and outfit, and some more money in advertising for agents. One woman came, engaged herself as agent, took away a quantity of the stuff and never came back. The rest the Troy lady has on her hands, and it is absolutely worthless.— Troy (N. Y.) Times.

One of tlie Queer Ways.

Englishmen have queer ways sometimes of manifesting admiration for heroism and self sacrifice. Six years ago Alice Ayres, a London servant, saved three of her master's children from a burning house. She herself perished in the flames. A popular fund placed an expensive monument over her graive and hung a painting of the scene of the rescue in the Red Cross hall. The mother of the girl, aged 72 years, whose sole support was her daughter, was |flmitted the other day to the pauper wdrkhouse and is now employed scrubbing floors and washing.—New York Sun's London Letter. -I

Timothy Dyer's Rare Record.

A rare i*ecord is boasted by Mr. Timothy Dyer of Vinal Haven, Me., who is 90 years of age. Until he was 18 years old he never wore a shoe. He has never ridden on a car, and but once on a steamboat. He has never entered a tavern, never quarreled with any one, a&d a barber has never shaved him. And yet his life has not been destitute of excitement, for only last summer the old fellow pulled in unaided a halibut weighing three times as much ashe does.— Lewiston Journal.

Locust* Getting Ready For Business.

The New York Sun printed an article a short time ago setting forth various predictions that the 17 year locusts would appear this spring in great numbers, in the Hudson river valley, western Connecticut and northern New Jersey. Recent digging in the neighborhood of Nyack, it is said, reveals the presence of thousands of the larvae of this insect getting ready for their transformation, which generally takes place in this latitude early in June. The insects are now found at an average depth of four feet.
