MAN ABOUT TOWN.

The Indlauapoli9 people had a good race meeting auti then gave up the ghost. The Driving club people s*y that the patronage does not justify the club in holding meetings. They could have learned a lesson from Terre Raute's experience. A good deal has been said about the success of the Terre Haute trottiug meetings but little is sa^d of the thousands of dollars the gentlemen Interested spent before there began to be any profitable return. The Terre Haute association had far

Man About Town several times has referred to Debs' remarkable ability to "magnetize" his fellow men. When he started for Harrisburg the other day four-fifths of the delegates in the tiremen's convention were ready to say that they were done with Debs as a leader but he captured them by aspeech and according to all accounts he is the hero ot the occasion. He is In Harrisburg to ^'do up" some of his enemies, especially Hynes, of Denver. Whether any others suffer at his hands depends on what they do to provoke his enmity.

I heard a report that Terre Haute Is to have anew and big Industry. It is for the manufacture of needles.

The Clark's Horse Review people paid the representative stallion stake money in cash. Elegant pocketbooks were made especially for this use and after the close of the race the money winners went to the reporters' stand where Mr. Bauer and Mr. Logan paid thtf*money. There were in all the pocketbooks twelve one thousand dollar bills, the first money being $7,962. The total was#18,925. Mr Logan, who represents the Review at the big trotting meetings is perhaps the best informed trotting horse writer in the country. Moreover he is a mode*t gentleman

But the attendance on the whole was fair, especially so when it was borne In mind that less than a month ago we had the big meeting of the fair association.

It begins to look as if the council has run up against a stonewall in the matter of street paving unless It is decided to make some sort of terms with the street railway company.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When thistubegets inflamed you have a rumbling sound of imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

J?riday eveSmg.

Shortly before 7 p. w. a Tremont ]gouso edectrio oar was paSSl&g along Main street at a very rapid rate. Near Windsor sfreel little girl, apparently about 8 years of age, Tan from the sidewalk toward the track. The motorman

brake. Then the child paused, and

Impulse, darted forward to cross the track. The motorman was almost breathless with horror. There was no time to stop the car, and the toddling infant seemed doomed.

Suddenly a tall, athletic young man sprang from his seat at the end of the front row, and grasping the curved han-

tho dasher of the oar with his

rjght

hand swung himself out on the

front of the

fender. But. by an almost convulsive effort the rescuer lifted the little girl from the track and laid her on her baok at one si tie out of the reach of the wheels.

So great was the strain upon him that as soon as the ohild was released ho himself fell forward on the fender, and only an unusual degree of agility enabled him to scramble up on his knees and back to his .seat in the car.

The whole thing was done in an instant Tho motorman, palo with fright,

!,was only able to look his thanks. The hero of the affair was the most composed person on tho car. He at once sought a rero* scat to avoid attention,, merely remarking to the motorman as he passed: "Gad! Why don't you get out of this?''

A passenger said that, the young man was a Harvard student who resides on Sacramento street, Cambridge. --Boston

The Paris Anarchist Scare.

Persons who assume to know what the French anarchists are doing—and I have had proof of the genuineness of their information within the past year —tell me they will seek to establish a reign of terror in Paris in October. Tho police are convinced that mischief more serious than any yet attempted is brewing. Tho fact that these fears are so definite is the best assuranoe that they may not be realized, for the expected seldom happens in France, especially in such matters.

There are no apprehensions among the public. The anarchist scare would havo quite died down save for the fact that there is a growing Restlessness among the Paris lower classes, due perhaps to the periodical demand of the Frenoh nature for excitement. It has been an unusually quiet summer in the-French capital.—Paris Correspondent

A Historical Rock Demolished. The peculiar shaped rock which stood on the parade grounds near Fort Clinton has been blown into a thousand fragments. Workmen have been engaged during the past week drilling holes in the old landmark. The rock had been a trysting place and furnished shelter for the cadets since the founding of the academy. Several years ago a proposition was made to blow it up, but General Sherman indignantly protested against its destruction. The limited apace for military maneuvers has made its removal imperative. A legend exists that when the first Christian missionaries Jame among the Indian tribes in the highlands this rock was their pulpit.—West Point (N. Y.) Dispatch.
