MAN ABOUT TOWN

Said a man interested Id a faro bank during race week:

uWell,sir,

I've beard

of men betting pontage stamps on the faro layout, but iu all my experience I never saw it done until the other day. A player who .bad lost all of his cash took a handful of postage stamps out of a big pocketbook and put tbern on the seven. He was loser, don't you know, and we turned for tbem. What did the «even do? Why, it lost, and say, we had a time of it dividing those stamps among those interested in the game

Mr. John Moore, who is known as

4,Trotwood"

of Clark's Horse Review, is

interested in the paoing horse almost to the exclusion of all thoughts of the trotter. Be saw the great milee on Friday when there wgui an qnusually large proportion of sensational events. Said be: "I have 'experienced religion' and been married, but this is the greatest day of my life." "Trotwood" is appreciated for the superior quality of his writings, and occasionally gives to the public excellent poetry.

The young man with a snap-shot camera caught some typical scenes at the traok last week for Ciark's Horse Review. One was when President Ijams and "Pa" Hamlin were holdinga private conference away from the orowd and leaning against the inside low white fence. Another was of Superintendent Jeffera as he was overlooking tbo work of the track scrapers. And still another was when Qeers was lifted to tbe shoulders of two men. Several of the finishes were also taken but the scene of the week escaped the yoang man. This was when the coldffed man fronaf'the Hamlin stables threw his arms about Geere and kissed tlie greatest driver of the year, if not of all time. It was when Geerg got oatof the sulky after winning tbe first heat in the free-for-all pace. Tbe colored man is from near Seers home in Tennessee.-,^

Tbe Trotting Association lost several thousand dollars by the meeting last week. This is nut as it should be. Terre Haute does not do its part in supporting tbe race meetings. If the people could appreciate what a big advertisement the city gets out of the races they would reproach themselves for the lack of interest and financial support they givo to the annual eveni. The members of the association do uot feel that they ought to be called upon from year to year to stand the loss. It is suggested that right now when the people are exulting over the great succes* of last week would be a good time to call for subscriptions to tbe stock or for pledges for tickets at the next meeting. The gentlemen of the trotting association do not want to go begging the solicitation ought to be nude by outsider*.

Tbe action of the convention Of Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen in ordering the headquarters moved from this city is not surprising to those who have been acquainted with the situation. There has been a feeling among brotherhood men that there was too much jealousy and bad feeling here, as demonstrated by the outside Interference in the re-election of Arnold. Moiever, it was the desire that tbe headquarters be located tn a larger city.

Tbe re-election of tbe grand officers of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen was expected. Vice Grand Master Hannahan received a double rebuke, how* ever, by a reduction in bis salary from $8,fi00 to $2,500, and by the adoption of a resolution condemning his course in tbe Pullman strike, when he was a eealous supporter of the Debe movement.

Tbe election of "Billy" Hynes as chairman of the board of trustees can not be accepted otherwise than a Debs defeat. The A. R. U. president was more bitterly opposed to Hynes than any brotherhood official, bat aooording to the press report Hynes was re-elected amid enthusiasm.

The loss of the brotherhood headquarters means considerable to Terre Haute in a financial way. The salaries and expenses at headquarters under the new plan of organisation would mean f3&,000 or $40,000 a year. Tbe postofitee will

lose 160 a month revenue from postage on the tnagactne. The publication of this periodical has given steady employmeat to not lean than fifteen persona, It is thought, that there Is a probability that the headquarters will go to IndianSpoils because ot the excellent railroad facilities there by which the officers who do a great deal of traveling will be enabled to get away and baok to headquarters in quick time. It la expected that Grand Secretary Arnold and Vioe Grand Master Hannahan will prefer Chicago as both are residents of that city.

The fair association will try the 26 oeot admission plan for the fail the first week in next month. When the prloe was raised to 60 oents a few yeara ago there was a revolt, especially among the farmers, and they established a boycott. It was decided that the fair and the futurity stake raoes could not well be conducted the same week In August, especially as it was the purpose to obarge$l admission and consequently tbe raoes and fair were separated.

If tbe conditions are favorable you may count upon reading the report from Nashville of Robert J.'s mile in two minutes, But, however fast the light harness horse may go elsewhere the Terre Haute traok has to its credit so many new records that it will be aoeepttd as the standard fast traok of the oountry. Here and there something in the way of phenomenal speed is reoorded, but the regularity with which the horses get new marks when they go around the "four cornered traok" establishes the fact that in the long run this is to be regarded as the fast traok.

The Moose convention made radloal obanges in the ritual of the order. One of the committee having In charge this revision said to Man About Town: "You see, It's Just this way. We had an organizer who is a theatrical agent, and he got up a ritual that run to speotacular effects. There was too much red fire and not enough solid work in the ritual."

I was told that Congressman Brook shire wanted to

Bpeak

in Terre Haute

before Senator Voorhees sounded the keynote to-night. Although the congressman did not get to do so, his opening speech delivered at another plaoe in the distriot has been printed in full by the Gazette. There is a good deal of curiosity to see just how far apart the two gentlemen are on the tariff and all ver issues.

The big aClendauce at tii^fall5 teVna' of the Normal school, which began this week, will help the friends of the school before the legislature in January, when they go there to ask for an increased ap propriation. .It will be the first session of the legislature since the "rebellion," and the legislators who may have been led to believe that the school had lost its usefulness will be confronted with the increase of two hundred students over the fall term of last yeaiC

All the doctors in town can't keep Col. Thompson away from Republican meetings. Perhaps the colonel knows what is best for his health. Nothing is better calculated to give him renewed strength than the atmosphere of an en thusiastic Republican meeting. ,rj

The gooi people of the protestant churches are getting ready for the union revival meetings. Evangelist Chapman will arrive here early in the first week of October, but the wMk prior to his coming will be devoted to preliminary revival work on tbe part of the pastors of the several chu robes. Mr. Chapman is said to be a decided improvement on the general run of evangelists In the respect of being more rational in his methods. There is less of emotional exhortation In his appeals and more of reason and argument. He is to go to Indianapolis after the middle of Novem ber. ______

The grand jury has not as yet returned an indictment against Ed. Hoi* loway, accused of wrecking the Big Four train at Fontanet. The jury evidently is finding some difficulty in get ting testimony sufficient to justify sn indictment. Before we have the last of Holloway in the courts here there will be some hard fighting by the lawyers.

Deafness Ciuinot be Cared

1,1

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tnbe. When this tuliegets inflamed you have a rumbling sound of imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the In(tarnation 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.

We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hairs Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.
