It is within bounds to say that 100 •worth of paint on any one of many residences would improve the appearance of the property %1,000 worth certainly it would add to the selling value not less than $300. In a city where there is so much smoke and dust there is need of more paint.

Ira Bride, the veteran poolseller, will have the privilege both at the fair and trotting association race meetings. This will be the first time in several years that the pool selling privilege has been sold for the fair meeting.

The three new trainmasters on the Vandalla, Burke, Campbell and Raidy are old time employes, have been passeuger conductors and are intimate personal friends. They are three of a •kind in physique and ability.

The Vandalia pay roll amounts to about 175,000 a month and nearly ?60,000 of it is paid out h«re In Terre Haute.

All the fruit was not killed by the "cold snap." All of it never is by these late "cold snaps."

Budd Doble says it was the ocean trip that brought about the remarkable change for tho better In his health. Between the time he loft Chicago and the date he was to sail he steadily grew worse and the New York physician would not let him undertake the voynge. Some days later in something like hlieer desperation he took passage on another lino and the second day out began to improve. The improvement has been constant ever since and to-day he not only weighs fifteen or twenty pounds more than ho did before he went abroad but feels better tliatr in several years past. He is here now for the spring season and expects this year to do a great deal of driving.

Among the Itidianians who carry $50,000 or more of life insurance the following Terre Hauteans are in a list' printed in the New York Times: B, G. Hudnut $115,000 John Beggs $110,000 W. P. Ijurns $100,000 B. G. Cox $50,000. J. M. and Clem Studebaker of South Bend each carries $250,000. 1). J. Maekey has $100,000. John Wananiaker has$1,700,000 by fur tho largest amount of insurance carried by any American. The premiums amount to $00,000 a year. By the accumulation of dividends a great deal of his insurance is increasing, and when he dies the companies will probably be called upon to pay his heirs $2,000,000.

"Colonel" A. M. Hardy who was nominated by the Republicans for congress in the second district lived iu this city about ten years ago and worked for tho Express. The second district is what in ordinary years would be said to be "reliably" Democratic but this Is one of the years when tho people are having "surprise parties" on eleetiou day and Hardy may be elected. Congressman Bret? hud 2,000 plurality in 1892 with 3,000 votes cast for the People's party man.

The Terre Hutile club inaugurated its new policy by a reception last Saturday night when guests of members inspected the club house and enjoyed the creature comforts of the new cafe and buttet. It is thought that the new departure will make a radical improvement in the club's financial condition. The protks on the sale of liquors aud cigars, and of the cafe, are expected to help lift the club's debt to a large extent. The enhanced social attraction of the club house is also a cause for congratulation among members.

The attention of the authorities has been called to the sale in this city of obscene books. It is not an uncommon thing to find a young man, in some retired spot about the place where he is employed, reading one of these small paper bound volumes which can be clos«Hi and held in the palm of the hand on the approach of anyone,

Senator Voorhees evidently is becoming irritable. When a Washington correspondent sent a note to him asking if he would give bis opinion on Senator Hill's speech the senator wrote in reply: ''Nobody but a damned fool would a&k "for my opinion on Senator Hill's speech." Another story is about bis effort to stop a street car by pulling the cord that rang up the fares. The car didn't stop and be angrily and rapidly rang the fare register bell until one of his amused fellow passengers pulled the srigbt cord.

sees the plain and undisguised purpose of the laws in the general sense, fails to observe and which a plausible lawyer might discuss to the end of making it appear that there is nothing inconsistent in the apparent variation in the decis'onsof judges. At Iniianapol sin tbe Federal court Judge Baker said he would overrule technical objections made in be half of the Indianapolis National bank wreckers and proceed with the trial to discover whether or not the accused are guilty. The trial is in progress and the Court room tables are loaded down with the bank's books which are in constant use by the prosecution. Here, in the Beach case, the court not only reviews the proceedings of a grand jury but decides that the bank's books are not admissable as evidence. No doubt it can be said that one was a national bank and the government had aright to them but all the same the fact remains that justice is not administered alike in the two cases.

The present grand jury has returned four indictments against John S. Beach, to obviate the objection raised against the others and sustained by Judge White, that Beach's bank books were not admissable as evidence against him. These latest indictments were returned presumably on evidence furnished by de positors. They are returned under the law of 1891, providing that it isembezzlement for a banker to accept a deposit within thirty days of the failure of the bank, the failure itself being prima facie evidence that the bank had been insolvent for thirty days. Tbe arraignment of Beach on the new indictments will be before Judge Tsylor and tbe questions of employment, by the county, of assistant counsel for the prosecution and of change of venue will come up again.

On Wednesday of this week represen tat Ives of several of Chicago's big whole sale grocery houses and two or three from Indianapolis, were In the city in conference with Hulman & Co. and Bement, Rea & Co., in regard to the adoption of a plan for the sale of sugar to the retail trade at a unifotm price. It is the staple article and tbe salesmen have long been in the habit of cutting prices on it to made a sale of a general line of groceries to a customer. There is no profit in handling it although in money value it amounts to from 20 to 30 per cent in volume of business. With EIulman & Co., for instance, $750,000 of the year's business is handled without profit. It is an old story, that of the customer's foolish desire to obtain a small per cent reduction 6n a staple article in his trade. If he buys sugar at one-eighth or one-sixteenth of a cent le«s on the pound he thinks he is doing a great thing beciu*e the price is so well fixed that an eighth is quite a cut But the actual saving is but a dollar or two on the ordinary purchase by a country merchant and he will freely give his order to the same salesman for several hundred dollars' worth of other gjjocerie* on which there is mar gin for ten times the cut made on the sugar. The wholesale dealers have been trying to agree to put a stop to this cutting of the sugar price and have forjtned a state association in several states. The Indianapolis people have been trying to form such an association for the past three years, but several of the dealers not only did not go into it, but made an advertisement of the fact that they did not. Then Chicago would not enter into theagreement and of course Chicago came into competition with Indiana dealers and especially with our Terre Haute houses, which have a large trade in Illinois. Now some of the Chicago houses want to agree upon a plan and St. Louis is said to be wiJIing to join in an agreemeut to sell at stipulated prices In prescribed territory, tbe price being governed by the freight charges.

The Normal students are again menaced by measles. They are exceptionally susceptible to the disease and, of course, being fuill grown young men and women measles Is not as trilling and painless a miction as it is with children. The explanation of the peculiar liability of a Normal student to "catch" tbe measles is in the fact that nearly all of them were reared in rural communities. Measles Is a city disease that Is the frequency of its visits and it is almost a certainty that a city boy or girl will hare had it before half way through his or her teens, to the country when there Is a case the insolation tends to prevent an epidemic of it.

When the Buckeye Cash Store removes to its new building at Fifth and Main, John M. Bigwood, the jeweler, will occupy one of the rooms, Ford A Overstreet taking the others.

The plans for the Rose Dispensary building, piepared by Architect Lietz, of Chicago, have been adopted and the board of trustees will soon advertise for bids.

Arbor Day was appropriately celebrated by the pupils of the public schodls yesterday. In each of the districts literary programmes were arranged, and tbe day was made notable. The pupils of the Sixteenth district, at Eighth and College, were given a treat bv Dr. Johnston the druggist, in the way of free soda water. It was greatly appreciated by the hundreds of pupils of that school.
