,0N THE QUI VIVE.

A great many years ago, when Dr. Swafford was a member of the city conncil, he was in favor of starting a special sewer fund for the purpose, when it had accumulated, of building a belt sewer to drain the eastern and southeastern part of the city, something that is now impossible. His colleagues could not be brought to look &t it in the right light, and the special fund was not started. He said then that the day would come when the work Would be an absolute necessity, and the sooner the situation was realized the easier would be the con struction. The matter was brought before the council Tuesday night by a communication from the mayor suggesting that steps be taken toward arranging for the construction of the sewer. The matter was referred to the committees ori sewers and wharves and streets and alleys. It has been estimated that a sewer that will properly drain the territory mentioned will cost not less than $100,000.

President Debs, of the American Railway Union, stepped on a banana peel and fell hard, before the A. R. at Chicago, this week. He tried to have the color line done away with in his organization, and was beaten, as he was when he tried to have the headquarters located here. This is a bad year for Terre Haute in securing meetings and headquarters. The G. A. R. and T. P. A. tried to get the state meetings for next year, the local O. R. T. and A. R. U. poople tried to get general headquarters here, but couldn't make it. Not many cities the size of Terre Haute have the hotel facilities that we have—or will have soon—for a crowd, and it is too bad that the effort to get these conventions met with such poor results.

Following up the year's record, Terre Haute got it in the neck in the effort to secure the national T. P. A. meeting, at Milwaukee this week. The Terre Haute boys there had the finest brands of Terre Haute cigars, the best Terre Haute beer, whiskey and other articles of commerce with whioh to regale thedelegates, to say nothing of their own persuasive eloquence, but all availed nothing in the face of the efforts of the wild, wooley men from Texas, and so the meeting was given to San Antonio. Why it was ever

to that God forsaken place,

when it could have come to Terre Haute, I do not know. The Texas people had the pull though. To make up for this, however, Charley Duffin was elected third vice president of the national association, and that ought to wipe out a little of the soreness.

When anybody wants anything done nowadays the first person thought of to ask for help is Russell Harrison—and when one goes to him he usually nets what he asks for. Here is his reoord this week alone: Lighting up the High School building for the reception Tues day night, because the electric light company oouldn't a iree excursion to the fair grounds Wednesday night to the visiting Princes of the Orient material assistance to the Orient com in I tt oe in arranging the electric foun tain, and to-day a splendid entertainment to the school children at Collett Park, with prices for games, etc. The old Htreot oar company stockholdersmeaning no disrespect to them—would have dropped dead in their tracks if a suggestion had been made to them of such expenditures as these things entail. But Mr. Harrison does them all with such an air of "I'ro-glad-I-can-do it" that he makes everybody feel good over it. He's going to spend several hundred dollars, it i§ said, in furnishing the electric search light and illumination for the Elks' Fourth of July celebration. Of course, he expects to get his money back in street car travel—in time—and he'd be a rank sucker if he'd put his good money up without expecting to get some action with it, but we have some slow-coaches here who won't put their money in public enterprises even when they know they'll get tt in due time with good returns.

You can set it down as an assured fact that whenevei Judge Mack and Finley McNntt are opposing counsel in a case in out- courts that there's bound to be a row. They came together again one day this week, in the case of Theo. Smith, one of the stockholders of the Vigo Real Kstate Co,, who demanded the right to examine the books of Receiver Grimes, who has charge of the company's affairs. The Irate Judge accused Mr. McNutt of secreting the bailiff's gavel in his pocket with the Idea of tapping him on the head with it. Judge Taylor restored order with considerable difficulty, and white-winged peace hovered over the scene temporarily. She will doubtless desert the scene when the case comes up again, for whatever the cause of the trouble between Messrs. Mack and McNutt, a word from one of them seems to act on the other like a spark in a keg of gunpowder. Time was when the Terra Haute bar had a reputation of producing more fights than a first clam athletic club, and these gentlemen seem deter-

able to take care of themselves, and one of these days the daily papers will have a big Bensation over one of their meetings.

HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES.

94 C1SU8—

The Junior®'Reception to the •The Alumni Meeting:

This has been a great week for the graduates of thp Terre Haute High School, with receptions galore. Tuesday night the juniors—or more properly speaking, the class of '95—gave a reception to the '94 class at ttie High School building, and it was a great social success, like all of its predecessors. The rooms were beautifully decorated with potted plants and flowers, the Ringgold orchestra played dreamy waltzes divinely, while sweet girl graduates, and other girls as sweet, but not graduates, danced and gossiped, and gossiped and danced, with the young men who looked as brave and manly as young men in high collars can look when the meroury is trying to make a balloon ascension in its efforts to get out of sight. iv

Old Father Time, who was the original free silver man, and who scatters his treasures around without stint, may have added a few silvery touches to the locks of some of the old boys and girls who graduated from the High school years and years ago, but he hasn't been able to give them any other evidences of age, if the Alumni gathering of Thursday evening was any indication. The Alumni association numbers about two hundred and fifty, and of these some two hundred were present, and united to make the meeting one of the most successful yet held. The exeroises consisted of addresses, papers, and music by representatives of a number of classes as follows: 1867, the 1st class, Mrs. Lydia Hardy Mahan 1868, Mrs. Justine Melville Gray 1869, Albert L. Wyetbj who insisted that the date was wrong, and that be must be considered a member of the class of U3 1870, Mrs. Eusebia Beauchamp Bridwell, who, with Dan Davis, sang a duet, a song that she gave at the commencement exercises in 1869 1872, Miss Mary Keeves 1873, Mrs. Octavia Burnet Eicbelberger, who read an original poem by Mrs. Ida May DavlB, a member of her class, who recently retired from the office of school trustee 1874, James W. Landrum 1876, A. C. Duddleston 1877, Mrs. Elizabeth Rodenbeok, Ida Ensey, Miss Hattie Bardsley, '86 and Miss M. Glick, in a quartette, "Swiss Love Song 1878, Miss Alice J. Dempsey 1879, Mrs. Mary Parker Warren 1880, Mrs. Ora Cross Foulston, vocal solo: 1881, Miss Lillie Simpson 1882, Miss Hattie Paige, vocal solo 1883, Miss Addie Sparks 1884, Miss Annie Ruhl 1888, G. I. Kisner 1889, Fred W. Beal 1891, Miss Emma Arnold, vocal solo 1892, Miss Ada Caskey, Miss Elizabeth Crawford and James Farrington 1893, Robert Huntor 1894, Miss Nettie Hoffman and Miss Pearl Ellis. After the programme was completed refreshments were served by Lawrence, and dancing was indulged in to a late hour.

A SUMMER SCOURGE.

Diphtheria Prevalent In a Malignant Form -The Scarlet Fever Alio Epidemic.

The doctors say that diphtheria has not been totally wiped out in Terre Haute for several years past. For some reason or other it seems to have a foothold here that it is Impossible to break. Thissum mer—an unusual season forthls disease— it is more prevalent than ever before known at this time of year, and it is of an unusually malignant forui. The members of the Board of Health are making every effort to have the oity placed in a good sanitary condition before theextreme hot weather comes, hoping in that way to prevent the spread of this disease. They can do very little good in this direction, however, unless they receive better assistance from some of the physloians. Some of them have been criminally negligent in reporting cases of diphtheria, soarlel fever and other contagious diseases, and it is this criminal carelessness that causes the spread of these diseases. Until the board is notified the scare signs are not put on the houses where tbe sickness exlata, and visitors spread the contagion. The officers of the board would have the hearty support of the public if they should make an example of some of these offending physicians, a severe and extreme example. In fact they will be neglecting their own duty if they fail to do so. The followlngcases of diphtheria have been reported since the 1st of June: 2—Thos.

LIFE'S TRAGEDIES.

BAB FINDS PLENTY OF THEM IN CITY'S DARK PLACES.

The Dead Wife and the Stilled Baby on the Tenement Bed—Day Laborers as Slaves-*: Who Is to Blame?—In Union There is

Strength!—People of "The Other Side** Need Help, But no Preaching. [Copyright, 1894.1

They are around us every day. The tragedies, I mean. That's the reasofi why when we go to the theatre we wsnjjf to see something amusing. I went the other day to see Mis' Connolly to tell beii good-bye, and to leave in her hands $ little money that some good people badgiven me to make some of tte babi?| happier. Mis' Connolly was distinct® unhappy. Charlie wasn't there, and- th| whole place had an air of misery, for when Mis' Connolly suffers she has little' heart for anything else. She took th| note I gave her, turned ii over in her bands, then burst out crying.

Then she said, "Well, Miss, is it to make a livin' ohild glad?" I told her that I had intended it should do that, but what did she mean by asking mej| positively about a living child?

She cried harder than ever, then began to put on her bonnet, and asked me to go with her.

A GBEAT CITY'S WBETCHED ALLEY We went down the street, then turned into a little side alley which seemed to me the dirtiest I had ever been in. Babies were stretched out on the pave? ment were walking at the risk of being run over in the middle of the street? were sleeping on'doorsteps while larger children were frantically playing arounSt as if even dirt and rags could not subdue the natural desire of children for pleasure. Untidy women were gosasping in the doorways, buying unripf fruit from the peddlers, or administer! ing, without any regard for the feeling# of the looker-on, the punishment they thought due their offspring. Into the meanest looking of these houses we went. Doors were^ thrown open, and nobody seemed to care whether the rest of the world saw them or not. Sewlnt machine* were heard everywhere, aii! above all, every now and then would rise the voice of a drunken man singing one of the popular songs of the day. Little girls were carrying tin kettles of beer, and the smell of fried fish filled the air until it seemed h6avy with grease. I don't think I was ever in buoh a place before, and yet I thought I had seen the other side.

AFTER CLIMBING FOUB FLIGHTS' we stopped and Mis' Connolly rapped on the first closed door we bad seen. Just outside were two or three women evidently meaning to be neighborly, talking in low whispers, while inside there was nothing but death and misery Before them even the one woman who seemed to be trying to straighten the wretched room was awed into silence. By the one window Bat a strong, healthylooking young man wit# a hard look on his face as if, no matter what came, he wouldn't soften. On the bed lay a dead woman and beside her a little baby. That Mis' Connolly had already been there was proved by the faot that the tired eyes were closed, that the wearied body was gowned in a plain, clean, white nightdress, and that the little baby had a slip upon it which I once remember^was shown to me as the first one that Charlie ever wore. The tired hands that had worked and toiled were crossed over the breast,.upon whioh the little baby would have rested if it had ever done anything more than give just one ory of pain when it came into the world .bout it. THE STRONG, GRIEF-STRICKEN HUSBAND.

I pressed Mis' Connolly's hand she knew what I meant, and she went over and said to the man, "Tim, it's all right. They won't have to be buried like paupers. I've got the money as will bury Ida an' the baby as you would like 'em to be buried, and now, my man, leave 'em for a little while an' come have a cup of tea with Connolly an* me."

She had to persuade him very hard, because thorn dead ones were just as dear to him as if he had been a millionaire. But at length he agreed, as there were a couple of neighbors there, to go with us. I stayod to tea, because I wanted to find out what made that man's face look so hard. I wanted to know where he had got that look In his eyes, which even the death of the woman he loved did not soften. I wanted to know what it all meant. After tea was over, and Mis' Connolly had taken a note from me to its destination, I said to Tim, looking him straight in the fsoe: "Now, my man, tell me what is the matter. I am sure yon know that I am sorry for you in your trouble, and if it will make yon any happier, I tell you this now yoor wife and your little baby are not going to be taken to a crowded city graveyard, but away off to a quiet little place in the country, where the birds wiU stag eternal lullaby, and the trees rustle an eternal prayer. Bat I want to know what is your trouble—maybe I can help you. Living trouble, my friend, is a' went a kindly clergyman said a prayer,

thousand times worse than dead. What is the matter?" Evidently the thought of the quiet resting-place for his own had touched him, for when I looked at him his eyes were full of tears, and then he said: "Ida came from the country, and if she knows she'll be glad to think that her and the baby are goin' back there, I'll tell you how it was, Miss it all came through the very thing that is supposed to help the laboring man. 'S. I "WAS MAKIN' A DECENT LIVIN' "When I married Ida, an' we fixed a comfortable little home. You see the hole she died In. Well, one day when we were at work, the man from the Union came in and said we would stop. That night there was a great speech in one of the big halls made by a gentleman who is great for the workingman, %nd who is anxious to get some political position. He told us how we were all slaves, and how the master was grindin' us down, an' how we ought to stand up for our rights. Ida had saved a little money, and for awhile we lived on that. Then I had to ask tlie Union to help us ihen they wouldn't give no more. Then I went to see the master, and two or three of the other men went with me. His talk was reasonable he wasn't sellln' as much blsself, an' so he had to cut wages, but as soon as times eotbetter be was willin' to raise 'em again. I wanted to go back, and so did the other men but no, we was threatened all sorts of things, and made to feel that we'd be cowards an' informers if we acted' like honest men, and worked. I looked at Ida, walkin' around there, not very strong, beoause the baby hadn't come then, and needin' the little things that women ought to have—a cup of tea, and you know, miss, what they like an' I couldn't give It to her. An' she'd say to me, 'Tim, go back show you're your own master,' an' I'd start to do it, an I'd meet some of them damn talkers, an they'd tell me I ought to be no man's slave, and would get me so fired up, as they knew they would, and then I'd go back home, and tell poer Ida all they said, an'she'd ory, an' keep cryin.' Well, miss, after a while, all our things was sold for rent, and we cpe down to this yere place, where a dog wouldn't sleep, *ud there Ida's, baby was bdrn: and there it died, an'.there she died. And it's just a little over a year since I brought her from the country, bright and rosy-cheeked, an' I'd promised I'd take care of her. And how have I done it? My God, who is to blame?" MS

FRIENDS IN TIME OF NEED.* And the strong man threw up his hands and then buried his face in them and cried like a little ohild. And before suoh remorse I eould only sit silent

Mr. Connolly, who had been quite quiet in one oorner of the room, came over, put his hands on Tim's shoulder, and said: "That's right, my man, you feel better how. It's all been a mistake, but please God you've got a whole lifetime to make it right. Me an' Mis' here will give you a helpin' hand, an' we've got a friend down in the South, an' I reckon us two can manage so that you get down there an' you cnn«^vork out in the open air for a while. Tim, me toy, this is what comes from only listenin' to one side of the story. I don't say nothin' against the workingman, I'm one myself, and I think he ought to stand up for bein' treated right, buC since I've talked with some of the gentlemen from the settlement, I've learned that the man who hires and the man who is hired must work together in unison if we want big wages. ThWe are bad em-ployers,-but there are more good ones, and usually, Tim, me lad, when wages are reduced there's a reason for it. Now, I ain't blamin' you, me boy, but .you must know now that these men wbi go around talkln'an excitin' young chaps like you, is paid to do it by the politicians, who, while they say they are the workingman's friend, is nine times out of ten, the very ones who grind him down the hardest. Take some of theee men who make such fine speeches, and ask them what they pay the men they employ, and what they do when there is a strike, and I guess you'll flnd.Timmy, that the ones who does the least talkin' dotne most workin'. Now, brace up, and be a man, and your friends will pull you through. Not them friends aa you've been tellin' about, but them that found you when you .was in trouble. That's the way to know your friends, Tim."

With another approving pat on Tim's shoulder, Mr. Connolly stopped, and then with a quiet "good-night," they left me alone waiting for Mis' Connolly.

S I TRUED TO THINE IT OOT. I tried to see the right andwrong of it, but always before me there came the picture of the dead woman and her baby, and it seemed to me that in the long months before the baby came, and when she saw no solution of the riddle, she must have wished for death. For on the thin, pinched face there was a look" of satisfaction as if some unwhispered desire had been granted.

All that was two days ago. This morninn, very early, from Mis' Connolly's little fiat, for they had carried Id* and the baby over these, the little funeral procession started. Just Before they

and after that a girl whose voice is heard oftenest in a different part of the town, stood beside me, and with her eyes raised as if she could see way beyond us all, she sang, "There is a green hill far away." And it seemed to me as if resting there, where the flowers never oease to bloom a- where the sunshine is eternal, were Ida and her little baby.

When they had gone, we waited for a little while in quietness, and she said to me, this good worker, "Have you ever been able to solve the question?"

It's work, my friend, in this world that is wanted. In the future, I can see Tim working away down South, and in this work he will forget, for, thank God, we oan do that. And I, well, I think that those people who were kind enough to send me the money for the living babies will not legret the use to which it was put by BAB

E DIVORCE GRIST.

Hot Weather Makes Builnesa for the Lawyers.

A divorce that attracted more than ordinary notice on account of the business and social standing of the plaintiff, was that of Emil E. Ehrmann against Mary M. Ehrmann, filed on Thursday. The^plaintiff ia general manager of the Ehrmann Manufacturing Co., and was married to the defendant September 22, 1892. He charged In his o6mplaint that defendant was

Uguilty

of adultery with

one —-, a man resident in Terre Haute," in the fall and winter of 1893 and 1894 and that he had not condoned the offense by living with her sinoe then. She entered a denial to the oharge, but Judge McNntt after hearing the evidence granted a decree of divorce yesterday.

The hot weather seems to have caused a boom in the divorce market, and a number of cases have been added to the already long list this week. Sidonia Jared asks for separation from Norman Jared because of cruel treatment and failure to provide Mary Demlng from Leo. B. Demlng for cruel and inhuman treatment Robert Anderson from Ida Anderson, for desertion, and Gertie E. Smith from James H. Smith.

Several petitions for divorce were granted this week, as follows: Lltba A. Wilson from Harmon G. Wilson, May Copeland from Wm. B. Copeland and Wm Carpenter from Celestia Carpenter.

THE FOURTH OF JULY. The Elks are meeting with much encouragement in their efforts to give a rousing celebration here on July 4tb. It has been a long time since the country's natal day was appropriately observed here, and the business men and citizens generally are doing much to make that of this year a success. The programme of exercises for the day includes aa industrial parade in the morning, balloon ascension, bicycle, horse and novelty races, etc., at the fair grounds in the afternoon, and in the evening the most wonderful electrical Illumination and searchlight display ever seen anywhere but at the world's fair. Thore will be a balloon ascension under the glare of the search light, races, band concert, and an exhibition drill by Terre Haute Division No. 3, U. R. K. of P. that will proye quite an attraction in itself. Altogether the celebration will be full of interest to all.

MISS CASTLEP8 CONCERT. Miss Edith Castle returned on Tuesday night from Boston, where she has been attending the Conservatory of Manic the past year. She will give a song recital at the First Baptist church qext Tuesday evening, in which she will be assisted by the gifted pianist, Miss L. Eva Alden. Miss Castle's abilities are too well known to need extended eulogy, and her numerous friends will be glad of the opportunity of hearing her after the year's course she has taken under the instructions of such eminent teachers as thoseof the Boston Conservatory. Reserved seats for the concert may be hod at Button's.

And I answered her, "No. All that we oan do is to do that which is closest to our hands. Life Is full of tragedies, and the work in it ia not sentimental. Nobody can oome down on the other side and help people by talking. All the preaching in the world will do no good."

IT IS WORK THAT TELLS.

The best lesson of cleanliness is that task which may not be pleasant, bathing somebody who is sick and poor. The best sermon on generosity is the denying yourself something to help the women and children, and the sick who need it. The best evidence of your belief in happiness here and hereafter is to give pleasure to those who scarcely know what it means, and the best proof of your believing that in the sight of God all men are equal is your respecting the feelings of others. Nobody can go on the other side and expeot to pose as a Lady Bountiful, but oh, there is so much work there to do. Thank God 1 There are men and women who arj doing it gladly and wisely. But always there is room for more workers."

And just then my little millionairess looked at her silver watoh, and straightened her cotton frook, and said to me, "You are right, but I musn't stop any longer for I am due down street to help take care of a woman who has got delirium tremens."

NEWS OF THE CITY.

The Hulman & Co. stable in the rear of the big wholesale house, at Ninth and Main, was damaged by fire Tuesday morning to the extent of $1,200. Four valuable draught horses were burned to death. The fire is supposed to have been incendiary.

The city counoil elected Harry Bosier city engineer Tuesday night, after accepting the resignation of Capt. A. B. Fitch.

The letter carrier force has been increased by the addition of B. F. Garwood and Norman A. Murphy, both of whom will go on duty July 1st.

The Terre Haute Gas Light Company held its anuual meeting this week, reelected the old board of directors and the following officers: President, D. Doming secretary, J. B. Harris treasurer, C. W. Mancourt superintendent, M. N. Diall.

The Wabash club disposed of all Its belongings to the members last night, by auction, realizing over $900 by the sale. This, with the cash on band, was divided among the members, giving to each over $30. An effort was made by the Phoenix club to purchase the furnishings complete but it failed. The Wabash was organized in September, 1891, and until the past yeai was unusually successful.

Affliction has cprnninly laid Its hand with heavy weight on the family of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Voaque, of south Third street. Last week a little daughter, Anna, four years old, died with scarlet fever, and on Sunday a second child, Irmine, aged eight years, died from the same dreadful disease. Both were bright, attractive ohiidren and the parents their

Dr. Henry F. A. Meissel, the well known veterinary surgeon, was sen» tenoed to seven years in the state's prison yesterday, for forging the name of Mrs. Ellen McColloch *to notes for $1,200, which be tried to sell to P. J. Kaufman. Meissel had a good practice1 at his profession, but seems to be insanely anxious to steal. He has already served fifteen years in the penitentiary forjtteallng, besides eighteen mouths In jail iu Illinois for horse stealing.

The conc ave of the Princes of the Orient on Wednesday evening was an overwhelming success. The novelty drew several thousand visitors to the city, including members of the order, and Main street was crowded with people during the progress of the parade. The business quarter never was so thoroughly decorated as on that day, the business men responding in force to the request for decorations. The floats were in the nature of a revelation to those who were not posted in the matter, and won universal approval. The success of the conolave is very gratifying to those who originated the Idea and carried it into execution in the face of great trouble. It is hoped that this carnival can be repeated yearly on a more extended plan and the suocess attending this one should justify the business men generally in taking bold of the next one.

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CASE. Judge McNutt deoided the fire department case this morning, in favor of Fire Chief Kennedy and against Fire Chief Jones. His ruling does not exactly consist with his ruling in the police case, where be decided that the Metropolitan officers, who had taken possession by force, could not have their possession questioned. A motion was made for a new trial, bnt there will be no appeal taken to the Supreme court.

CONGRESS is after the sleeping car companies, and the traveling public will wi*h it success in the laudable effort to regulate the outrageous charges made by these public carriers. There is a bill before tbe House that seeks to limit the charge for sleeping car accommodations to half of lo a mile for lower berths and one-third of lc per mile for upper berths, and would compel the companies to furnish safes and assume responsibility for valuables. The sleeping car magnates of course are combatting the proposed legislation and will have a hearing before tbecommercecommittee next week. If congress can by hook or crook legislate in any way to compel the sleeping car corporations to pay some attention to the wants of a long suffering traveling public, the present session will not have been in vain.

When Jerry Rusk was being praised once upon a time for the promptness with which he suppressed riots in Wisconsin he answered with more humility and modesty than attention to tbe details of grammatical accuracy "Ob, I don't deserve no particular credit. I simply seen my duty and done it."
