TERRK HAUTE. IND., AUG. 11,1894.

SIN'CE 1889 the city of Chicago baa increased her area from 43 square miles to 186 square miles, equal to 119,129 acres.

THIS fa a queer year, indeed. An exrebel soldier has been defeated for a congressional renomiuation in Kentucky, and he was a "kernel" at that.

THK Htate board of health is neglecting its duties if ft permits "General" Coxey to come into this state to make speeches. It baa authority to abate public nuisances.

POLITICAM.Y, the .Senate of the United States seem* to be composed of Democrats, Republicans, Populists and Conservatives—and the latter party is the strongest for they get what they want.

WHAT good fortune it would be if the Japanese should whip the Chinese so badly that the latter government wou'd have to call home all the copper-colored, almond eyed cheap laborer* that infest this country.

ANOTHER corporation lawyer has heen appointed to the Uriltnd States court for the now Eighth judicial circuit. Is it possible that there are no lawyers in the country qualified for United States judges but corporation lawyers?

THK fool newspapers that are running Eugene V. Debs as the Populist candidate for Governor this year, should wake up to the fact that Indiana elects no Governor until 1896. There has been a great deal of fool work done by the newspapers during the strike, and this story Is a fair sample of forne of it.

No wonder thuxouate prolongs its session. Anew guuiH of poker has been Invented that is HHUI to be far more fascinating than the ordinary senatorial game. It is called "loo loo poker," and was invented by an Indiana man, who doubtless has accumulated some senatorial sugar monoy while teaching the game.

THKIUJ wan some talk before the Alabama eleotion that Kalb, the PopullstRepublicau candidate for governor, was going to be elected, but Gates, the administration Democratic candidate, was successful by a large majority. Alabama is one of the states where talk has nothing to do with deciding an eleotion.

A.s a result of the strike the railroads will have a chance to put up a poor mouth before the

Htate

tax commission

ers about their assessments being too high. There is one tt ingabout railroads that can always be counted on. If they were paying ilfty per cent dividends they would have the same old story to tell about unjust taxation forced upon them.

INDIANAPOLIS is going to ask that a post of the United States army be estab lished near that city, and will sond a committee on to Washington to make the plea with the war department. There's nothing too big for Indianapolis, in the opinion of ludianapolis, and as Chicago haa an army post, why should not she? Besides, the addition of an aristocratic not of regular army officers to the swell crowd, would give added tone to the capital four hundred. Army posts, however, are not given io prise packages, and the yearning for military society is likely to remain unsatisfied for the present.

JAPAN can get five thousand star soldiers in the Pennsylvania coke regions, they having volunteered their services. It is a violation of the United States law for citizens of this country to enter the military rviee of any country during a war with any other country with which we are at peace, but this infraction would be gladly overlooked If Japan will take the coke strikers off our hands. But for the desire of the coke syndicates to compel men to work for starvation wages, many of these undesirable would not have come here, a eons ton menace to law and order. If we can send them to Japan to fight It will be a blessed riddance.

WUKN" women get a ohance to take an active part in polities look out for trouble. A young woman tn North Dokota, Miss Km ma Bates, who was a candidate for state superintendent of schools, has Just accomplished th© cleverest piece of jvoHtioal work on record. She had two mate opponents for tb« nomination, and »h« drove one out of the way by making herself solid with the Young Men's Republican League. The second was more formidable, and sh© got rid of him by promising to marry htm and make him her first deputy. When the girls get interested in politics, and «ao drive their opponents out of the way in this manner, thera will he «o many candidates that ail records will be broken.

Tun bicyclist* «re doing something this week to prove the wheel i* something more than a pUything. It is the

carrying of a message from the presi dent at Washington to Governor Waite of Colorado, it being the intention show the utility of the bicycle for army messengers. The race began at noon last Monday and will end at noon next Tuesday, providing the programme carried out, as planned. The distance to be covered is 2,037 miles and at the finish over 5,000 wheelmen will be in waiting to greet the victorious bearer of the message, and ehould he arrive on time or ahead of it his greeting will be very enthusiastic. The people all over the country will watch with interest the success of this ride, and it will be mem orable in the annals of bicycling.

THE war department at Washington has twice rebuked army court martials for .verdicts which were destitute of justice or common sense. A court at Omaha sentenced a private to imprison ment for refusing to obey the major's order to turn out on 8unday for target practice. The war department ordered the man's release and the trial by court martial of the officer who disobeyed the famous proclamation order of President Lincoln against drilling and the like on Sunday. The other instance was the verdict of the St. Paul court martial call Ing for the public reprimanding of Lieu tenant Mancy for "assaulting a superior officer." The "assault" consisted of the .killing of Captain Hedberg at Ft. Sheridan. The lieutenant was acquitted on this charge by a jury of his peers on the ground that he acted in self defense. How a man could then be guilty of "assaulting a superior officer" in a sense that required punishment, is one of t1 ose strange processes of reasoning with which only the mind of an army officer, narrowed and restricted by the confines of a barrack where idleness begets jealousies, is capable.

MEXICO is being invaded by an enemy to her old time tradition awd customs— the movement for the enfranchisement of woman,and justnow the movementis being discussed by the Mexican press with no little animation. The immediate cause of the present interest was the refusal of one of the city courts to license a young lady law student to practice before it. The writers of Mexico have long been urging the broadening of woman's sphere, and advising ladies to enter positions which had hitherto been monopolized by the men. They were advised to become saleswomen, stenographers, book-keepers, telegraphers, etc., and some two years ago, when a young lady graduated at a medical school and was admitted to practice medicine, the papers of the country had a good deal to say about ttje great advance in woman's work. The great majority of them, however, indorse the opinion of the court, which does not want to see a female lawyer. They thintf that the legal profession is too near the ballot box, and that when women are allowed to practice law they can not well be hindered from voting, which Mexico is a good ways from being prepared for yet.

Mrs. Emma Wheeler, who lives with her sister, Mrs. Louis Best, of 1228 north Seventh street, was fatally injured last evening by jumping from a buggy. She was riding with Mrs. Emma Miller on north Seventh street, when the latter's horse became frightened by a passing race, and ran away. She attempted to get out, was thrown on her head, and received iujuries that caused her death a few hours later, Mrs. Miller was severely injured also. Mrs. Wheeler oame here from Henderson, Ky., several months ago and had been making her home with her sister.

Poor Bill Hicks is in trouble again in Chicago, over his intense longing to have his hands in other people's pockets. Bill monkeyed with a newspaper reporter, who mnde a "f»coop" and had him put behitut the bars.

OTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

Four ^months ago I closed the Filbeck House in order to have it make room for the New Filbeck, to be opened this evening. There was, I believe, a necessity for just suoh a hotel as I have built. It is modern in every respect—elevator, steam heating, gas and electric lights. In short nothing that can be found in the newest metropolitan hotels is wanting here. The house is not wholly completed, but Is so far advanced that it was deemed advisable to open at this time.

In making this announcement I desire to return hearty thanks for liberal patronage bestowed upon the old Filbeck House and to assure the public that in the New Filbeck everything that will conduce to the comfort of the traveling public will be found. Respectfully, N. FILBECK.
