ON THE QUI VIVE.

We hear a great deal about the green material that will make up the new House of Representatives at Washington, and muoh is said of the uncertainty and unreliability of the new men. If they are one-half as uncertain and unreliable as much of the talk, that is indulged in by newspaper correspondents about the new members, they will indeed be an uncertain lot. For instance, here is what J. H. Beadle, formerly of Rockville, hae to say in a letter from Washington to the Rockville Tribune about A. M. Hardy, the former Express reporter, who was elected to Congress from the Vinoennes distriot: "Colonel A. M. Hardy, who beat Mr. Bret* in the Seoond district, drifted into Indiana as a rabble rousing speaker during a political campaign and is a man of some talent, though with little experience in practical politics." Mr. Beadle evidently knows very little of Col. Hardy, who received his political training in one of the Southern states during the reconstruction, carpet-bagging days, when polltios bad an intensely practical flavor. He hasn't forgotten his training, either, as far as its practical nature isooncernod, for in an Indianapolis Journal interview, a few days after the election, he gave utterance to an expression something like this: "While the new Congress will not meet until December, 1895, thank God my salary begins on the 4th of next March."

In the same letter Mr. Beadle refers to our Congressman as follows: "Mr. Faris, the new man from the Eighth, is a railroad lawyer of marked ability and great experience." It will be news indeed to the friends of Mr. Faris that he is a railroad lawyer, meaning, of course, that he makes a specialty of appearing for railroad corporations. While his firm has a large practice, very little of it is in the line of railroad work, and the number of cases where the firm has appeared against railroads in suits for damages will outnumber many times those where appearance was entered for the companies. _____

Just seven members of the city oounoil were present at the proposed special meeting last Tuesday evening, to discuss the new oity charter, and Mr. Wey, who fathered the resolution calling for the meeting, was especially conspicuous by his absence. Ex-Councilmen Frank Storz and John Thomas were there, but there was such a small crowd of those who were expected that nothing was done but to discuss informally features of the proposed charter. It was noticed that of Terre Haute's ten living exmayors not one was present at the meeting. These are James Hook, Wm. H. Stewart, Alex. Thomas, Jos. M. Wildy, B. F. Havens, Jas. B. Lyne, Wm. H. Armstrong, J. C. Kolsem, F. C. Danaldson and H. M. Griswold. Messrs. Lyne and Armstrong are no longer residents of the city, Jas. Hook Is unable to leave the house on account of sickness, while the death of his father prevented the attendance of ex-Mayor Danaldson.

The police board as yet has done nothlng'ln the case of Chris. Racuglen, the patrolman, who had charges preferred against him for sleeping on duty. Bacuglen has been looked upon as a good officer, and has seemingly had the knack of attending to his own business and that for which he is paid by the

0lty—which

is far more than can be said

of some who are his superiors in rank.

There's going to be a "blow-up" In the police department some of these days, If Q. V. isn't mistaken. There is a feeling of discontent among the men not confined to the members of either party—that, while there was no prospect of relief, was smothered. But now that there Is a chanoe for a change in the heads of the department the spirit of unrest is gaining, and Borne of these days there will be a surprise party.

The Normal School faculty and students have raised a considerable sum of money toward the Indianapolis News fund to purchase a suitable silver service for the new battleship, Indiana. Their action is highly commendable, and an united effort should be made here in Terre Haute to add to the fund.

The talk of another big department store on Wabash avenue between Sixth and Seventh is likely to end In something more than smoke. Q. V. heard the other day that the enterprising firm Interested in the project has not given up the idea, and that the owners of the property under consideration hare offered concessions from their original price. The new store will be a huge one if the plans are carried out, and will furnish striking evidence of the progress Terje Haute is making in the way of business buildings.

OUT OF THE ORDINARY.

A Cripple L*d Who Ha* Orlt—A Toon* Han With "Credentials"—Stories of City Life. "Punk" Long, is the name of a seventeen year old boy, who had the misfortune to fall between two oars of a moving train on the Big Four last spring, and lose one of his legs and both of hta hands,

„.

just at the wrist. Ninety-nine persona out of a hundred would have died as the result of such terrible injuries, but not •o with "Punk," whose right name Is Charley. He was full of grit, and al though his life was despaired of, he fought pluokiiy for it, and won. Re•ently, some of his friends around the Big Four depot,—his father, "Tom Long," was, years- ago, one of the best known and most capable engineers on the old "Alton" road—"ohipped in" and fitted him op a

news

stand adjoining the

Sixth street watoh house, and true to Big Four traditions had it painted an orange color. Here ''Punk" did a landoffice business in peanuts, oandy, popcorn, eto., and as he was well known to nearly every employe of the road, and they all sympathized with him, many were the paokages of "Punk's" peanuts, or popcorn, or candy, that were carried to little ones dear to the end of divisions, just because its purchase here would give "Punk" a lift. That was until last Monday night, when the establishment, "Punk's Place," was, despite the herolo efforts of the fire department, and all of Punk's friends, totally destroyed by fire. But "Punk" Isn't oast down—not even a little bit. He moves around on his one good leg, assisted by its wooden mate, and smokes cigarettes, whloh he handles by an ingenious devioe of his own, fastened to the stump of an arm, as calmly as if he had never heard of a railroad acoident or a fire. He Is a oharaoter, and as he has plenty of what some persons are short on—grit and "git up"—his friends will probably start him in business again, and put him, figuratively Bpealflng, on his feet, but literally, on his foot.

When Charley Balch was campaigning for City Treasurer last spring, he promised the "gang" at the opera house that if successful he would give them a banquet, and Thursday night the event came off with great eclat. The tables were spread on the opera house stage, and Frank Miller, assisted by Geo. Dinkel, put in an electrical fountain that was wonderful. While playing the water ohanged in color to every hue of the rainbow, and the statutes that were grouped about the fountain were adorned with incandescent lights that served to make a beautiful scene. The menu was elaborate, and the speeohes that followed the spread were "corkers, see!" Ed Hayman, who in everyday life is only a policeman, developed a flow of watery and a fund of anecdote, that if properly attended to would make him a great public speaker. David L. Watson related a number of anecdotes that would make even a football player's hair curl, Willie Hamilton gave a few of his experiences on a recent pedestrian trip to Colorado, and Frank Cooper sang "Her Golden Hair was Hanging Down Her Back." The curtain took a drop as he finished, and brought the evening's entertainment to a close There was but one nnpleasant occurence during the evening, and that was a discussion between Will Parrott and Adolph Gagg as to which of them is the best comedian. The trouble was settled by referring the matter to a referee, who will be engaged all next week in hearing testimony in the case.

The leading dramatic papers, such as the New York Clipper, Mirror, Dramatic News, and papers of that class, have local representatives, who mail each week a resume of the dramatic events, tell of each company's business, and are given credentials that are usually recog nized by the visiting managers. Whenever there is a vacancy in any of these positions there is usually a host of applicants for the position who regard it as a soft snap, giving them free admission to the majority of shows. They are looked upin so favorably that many applicants offer to pajd the retiring correspondent to say a good word for them. A young gentleman of this city, anxious to acquire fame as a dramatic correspondent, went so far as to give two dollars and a half for the position of the local representative of a so-called dramatic paper published in St. Louis, believing that it would give him an "open sesame" to all the dramatic treasures of the season. When he presented his paper to Manager Hayman, with the modest request that it be recognized, the urbane mansger nearly fell over. The "paper," which was about two sices larger than one of John Wanamakei's Columbian stamps, had the appearanoe of being printed on a elder press, with shoe pegs for type and apple butter for ink. With the geniality that came to him naturally, and which he has broadened by culture, the manager explained to the visitor that tt was scarcely possible that visiting managers would look upon the diminutive St. Louis paper as a representative of the leading dramatio thought of the country, and that its representative would probably be "turned down," which is the phrase a nong theatrical people expressive of being denied ad mtsalon. Then the young man sorrowfully retired, and as he went along Wabash avenue, past the show ndows filled with holiday goods actively displayed, be thought wearily of how much that two-fifty would haye been in evidence In a few weeks.

OBITUARY.

DAVID S, pANALDSON.

In the death of David S. Danaldson, which occurred at seven o'clock last Tuesday evening, Terre Haute loses one of her oldest and most respected citizetiB—one who bad seen Terre Haute grow in half a oentury from a little trading hamlet to its present metropolitan dimensions. For several months past Mr. Danaldson had been in failing health, and for the greater part of the time was confined to his bed by sueh a complication of diseases that thegbest skill of the physioians could bring him no relief. A few days ago therg was a change for the worse, and enfeebled by age and bis long-sufferings be was unable to rally, and death came as a relief.

David S. Danaldson was born in Rock oounty, Kentucky, March 2, 1809—the year so notable for its wonderful babies who have done so muoh for the progress of the world. His parents were Virginians, and he was the eleventh of a family of thirteen children, of whom but one now survives. Young Danaldson grew to manhood in his native county, acquiring an education in the common sobools of those days, and began his business career as a olerk in a store at Winchester, Ky. He engaged in business for himself soon after, and in 1833 left his native state and looated in Parke oounty, where be remained for two years.

In July 1835, he removed to Terre Haute, and from that day to the hour of his death, he had been loyal to the lnterests, ol .^®rre Haute. He first embarked in the dry goods, business, in which he continued at various periods until the breaking out of the war in 1661. The last firm in which he was interested was that of Ripley fc Danaldson.

In 1845 Mr. Danaldson purchased of Thomas Dowling, the Wabash Express, and continued in charge of it until 1853, when he disposed of it to J. B. L. Soule. He started the first dally paper ever printed in Terre Haute, the Daily..Wa" bash Express, which was continued from May 12, 1851 to October 31, of the same year. After retiring from merchandising in 1861, he opened a olalm agency, which he oc&tlnued up till the time of his fatal illness. Mr. Danaldson was married Sept. 18, 1838, to Miss Evelyn Clark, of Jeflferson county, Virginia, and now after a happy wedded life of olose on to three score years, she is bereft of her life partner—a separation so pathetic, that words fall in attempting to describe it. Besides the aged wife, three children survive him, W. H., of St. Louis, Mrs. Nellie Weedon and exMayor Frank C. Danaldson.

The funeral services were conducted yesterday afternoon by Rev. J. D. Stanley, who with Mrs. Fred Longman and Mrs. W. S. Duenweg rendered the music for the occasion, with Miss Lottie Longman at the organ. The honorary pail bearers were old and olose friends of the deceased, Col., W. R. Thompson, Col. Thos. H. Nelson, W. R. McKeen, Geo. W. Bement, Geo. F. Ripley and D. W. Minsball. The pall bearers were Geo. H. Whedon, Frank C. Danaldson, John G. Williams, Geo. E. Farrington, F. C. Cmwford and W. P. Ijams. Mrs. Danaldson Is so feeble that she was unable to attend the services at St. Stephen's.

THE Mormon%^may have given up polygamy—which has been urged as one of the reasons why Utah should be admitted to statehood—but they still retain a hold on the resources of that state that cannot be wrested from them. The "Utah Company" is the title of a corporation recently organized by the officials of the church, that will invest 910,000,000 In coal mines, a railroad, a uathing beach, and pleasure resort at the great Salt lake, and build, equip, and operate telegraph and telephone lines. This is purely a church scheme In which gentiles have no part, and is to be managed to add to the wealth of the ohurch.

THB bitterness that has developed in South Carolina politics, where each Democratic faotlon Is accusing the other of election frauds, is strongly suggestive of the old saw, of the "pot calling the kettle black." The feeling between Butler and Tillman, over the senatorial situation, ia so intense, and their respective followings are so worked up, that there is likely to be bloodshed, in which the pure patrician article will mingle with that of the poor whites, represented by the Tiilmanites. We are likely to learn something positive concerning southern election methods if all the suits are brought that are threatened in that state.

AH the world is a foot ball and the people In It are mostly kickew.

Twenty-fifth Year

NOTES AND COMMENTS,

IT will be a gloomy looking crowd5 that will assemble on the Democratic side of the House, when Congress meets next Monday.

Is it possible that all the baok numbers resulting from the recent elections' are going on the lecture platform? •ov. Walte aud "Willie" Breokenrldge are already annouuoed, with other states to hear from. Tammany might have its defunot tiger stufled and exhibit it along with the other freaks.

THB only place of honor left to the Democrats in the next House of Representatives is that of Father of the House, a title conferred on the member who has the longest continuous servioe to his record, and to whom is assigned the duty of swearing in the new speaker. Congressman Culberson, of Texas, will be the next Father of the House, he having held his membership continue ously sinoe 1874.

THB President is becoming every daymore strongly oonvinced that civil servioe is a good thing, and will push it along by putting the internal revenue employes on the civil service list the first of the year. Of course, tbe possibility that a Demoorat may not have the filling of these places after the next, presidential election has nothing to dO' with this action, which grows out of a pure and undefiled love of the law.

MB. CLEVELAND IS no better as a peace maker In the far east than he is in his own native land. His kindly offer to act a.* mediator between Japan and Cbina was received so frigidly by theconquering, slant-eyed heroes that he is* doubtless sorry he spoke. Japan insists that as Cbina is tbe under dog ia the fight she should first cry enough, and until she does there will be no peace talk—which, if contrary to the rules of the International Peace Union, is business, and war.

THIS year for the first time the candidates for office in Missouri were required to make a sworn itemized ntatement of their campaign1 expenses. A Candida to the legislature, down in that part of the state where ail things that are considered pretty are compared with a "red wagon," showed how he had expended $5.50—and all of it was for himself. Meals, at 25 cents each,, were set down as furnished to "Wm. J. Campbell," his own name. The only treating recorded was three glasses of lemonadeand he was the treated party. And Mr. Campbell was elected.

IT would seem that the laws governing national banks are In need of radical revision ^hen it is possible that defalcations of hundreds of thousands of dollars can oontinue for years without being discovered, and then when finally brought to light, as in the case of the Shoe and Leather bank in New York, it is only done by accident. Either tbe bank officials have been very negligent, or the national bank system has material defects. Perhaps both of these conditions unite in making it possible 4or a bank olerk to steal $354,000, as in the New York case, and make his escape Defore discovery.

THE Indianapolis News will celebrateits twenty-fifth anniversary ou the 6th of December, by issuing an appropriate memento edition. The Mail has in its possession a copy of the first issue of the News, and a comparison of that paper with one of to-day's News shows the vast improvement that has been made In the composition, make-up aud contents of the daily newspaper in a quarter of a century. The original News was a four-page, six-column paper, and a out of the antiquated union depot forma part of the heading on the first paga. The growth of the News in twenty-fivff years shows what can be done by a newspaper that has courage, enterprise and liberality. These qualities win sucoees in every business, and in none more readily than in the newspaper line.

KOLB, the Populist candidate for governor of Alabama, who was apparently defeated, olalms that he was fairly elected but counted out, and announces that be will be sworn in a» governor to-day and perform the functions of the office, if he has to go to war to do it. Kolb is a graduate from the dominant party in Alabama and very likely knows what be is talking about when be says he was counted out, but his talk about war is simply multiplying words for newspaper effeot. We have been hearing for mora than two years about what an upheaval Kolb was going to give Alabama, but his predictions have missed connections with results. Mr. Kolb Is one of those southern politicians who have a peculiar delight in listening to the echoes of their own voices. In a war of words he would be in supreme command.
