,jV The Ohio Btreet paving contraot boobea up serenely again this week, in a series of interrogatories propounded by the plaintiffs in the suit to the members of the tirrn of J. E. Voorhees A Co., and «i*ch .member of the oouncil who voted to give the oontraot to that firm. The interrogatories make a column of solid "agate," or "nonpareil," or whatever that little, weazened faoed type may be called. The defendants are ruled to answer next Monday, and if they in turn should get inquisitive and fire a lot of questions into the case, and compel an
Answer, the court sessions would well wofrth be attending. '•4 a8 Rabbi Lyons remarked in his adores! t^efore the Central Labor Union last Sdtrday afternoon, it is not often •that one witnesses the spectacle of ministers of the Jewish, Catholic and Pres byterian faith speaking from the same -platform on the same subject, aud one •of equal Interest to eaoh of them. Yet •that was the awe when Rabbi Lyous
Father Ryves and. Rev. R. V. Hunter spoke of the interests of the laboring men as allied to those of religion. The preseuce of these
broad-minded
men at
jthese meetings has'done muoh good, /|md baa disabused the minds of many "men of tht impression—which of course, ads unjust—that the preachers are not -Hprinnh ooncerned in the welfare of the --"Workingmeu. It shows that they have ^lan interest in them beyond the confines of their own churches aud congregations, and the feeling thus created will do good to all those concerned. SyS
A wise man is not much smarter than the fool who knows how to coin hi9 foolishness intr good money. It is said •the "Reuben" who has been attracting attention te the Health Office this week receives six dollars a day for hisdispiay.
It is the proper caper to say that the politicians have killed the proposed city 'Charter, or at least that is the charge ^made. But there tire not many poli.ticians on the oommittee of one hundred, and when but twenty-live or thirty members of the committee attend meetings that have been extensively advertised, to disouss matters in which they are supposed, to be Jin teres ted, it is
the tstai r^ceto did not
The charge that attend the meeting of the oommittee of one hundred Thursday night because the committee of nine, by defeating cer tain clauses in the proposed charter, had robbed him of the appointing—or, taken away the "one man power"—does him an injustice. He is not a member of the committee and has not attended any of the meetings except the first, at the Terre Haute, and this he left before its conclusion.
Q. Y. doesn't profess to write very "good gra moaar," but he knows better than to say "the judges'duties is," as the Gazette made him say in reprinting the comment on Judge Henry in the light case.
Do you knew what a "Charity Circus is? Well, you wait until next June and you'll find out, aad your eyes will be opened, for the Elks are going to give one and devote the proceeds to charity. A Dayton man was here this week to make preliminary arrangements for the affair, under tbe auspices of the Elks, and tue exact date will be known soon it is slid. They gave this circus over in Daytoa last summer, and tore the town wide open. The forenoon parade wa over two miles long, and attracted thou sands of spectators. A feature of the charity circus is that ladies do not par ticlpate in the entertainment, it being confined to tbe men alone. The Dayton man, Harry Feicht, furnishes a bareback rider and other performers not likely to be secured here. The mensg erie will include the oelebrated trained elephant "Nit," the famous and original "Guyasticutus," the great African "Skyotus," and other animals of equal impoitance. It is expected to interest business men in tbe worthy cause, have the council declare circus day a legal holiday, andjmakemagrand gala event
One of the most important pieces of business that will come up before th* council on next Tuesday evening will bs that of granting a franchise to a tele phone company, four of which areappli cants. It will probably be given to ihe Harrison company, which ha* made the best propvisition. Much the same arrangement has been made as re gards the free use of telephones in tbe fire houses as now exists with the old company. It is thought the francnise will be given for twenty years only, al though this may be modified after fur ther consultation. It is said by those In a position to know that the old oompany as soon as it realises that tbe new com pany is an assured thing, will carry out the policy It has inaugurated in other places where it has bad to meet the com petition of the Harrison people, cut rates
In Decatnr recently the old company, after the new one was fairly In working order cut rates in two, making the old company's rates leas than those offered by the new oompany. It is not beyond
MM
the bounds of possibilities, therefore, that we will have a telephone war.
That is a splendid idea that is being put into effect in the organisation of the Men's Fellowship Club, which held its first meeting at the Washington Avenue Presbyterian ohuroh Tuesday night. It is proposed to have some sort of a literary or musical entertainment each week, to which admittance will be free. Many prominent persons living on the south side are interested in the organization, which is destined to do great good.

A BRILLIANT SPECTACLE.
The Graml Opera "4, "1 Sfc# -v N»ylor'«,
Egypt*" Mit Week at
Five hundred Terre Haute people will sing next Monday night to one of the largest audiences ever known to our local theater. And all this will be for charity, the proceeds going to our "Home for Aged Women." No expense has been spared to make the presentation of this magnificent work perfect in every respect. The special scenery is unrivalled in richness and beauty while the oriental nature of the opera gives full scope for the most brilliant oolor effects. Among the views to be shown will be one of the Nile with its pyramaids and 8phinx, of the lovely garden in the palace of Pharaoh's daughter and of the proud oity of Thebes with its towering minarets and great gates and walks where the mighty Pharaoh holds his regal court* Then there will be a charming pastoral scene in the land of Midian, where the shepherdesses watch their flock on a sun-lit hill-side. Another fine scene will disclose a harvestfield with a wealth otgolden grain bend ing under the summer breeze and laden camels and oxen bearing away their burdens. In solemn contrast will be seen the gloomy, rock-hewn catacombs with their sculptured figures aud hierog lyphics where the dead prince is buried amid the
chanting
of black-robed priests THE OA6T.
And right worthy of the exquisite music is the splendid list of its inter preters: Pharaoh -V JotanTJoyd Dqvis ThP Prinoe Robt. Landrum Mcwes as a babe Baby cU^day •f'Mboy Paul «?ib. Pj-ofes—rtewft

AMUSEMENTS.
QUDM WlliUS,
Pretty as a picture and graceful as a fawn, is Gladys Willis, who made her, first appearanoe here as a star last high tr in "A Qiri's Way," nnder the auspice^ of the Blka. Her m»oager has well-, given her the title of "Winsome," for no other word could well describe her. She Wasn't a strong voioe, but sings sweetly, danoes like a fairy, and This suoh fasoinating ways that Bhe cannot fail to prove a success as? etar. The supporting oompany is excellent Jo« Cawthorne being entitle to special Wen* tion for his unusually clever rendition of the character of a green Germanyouth. He made quite a bit, and un* earthed a lot of witticisms that were as laugh-produoing as they were original. He pleased the audienoe greatly with his oonoertina playing.
The Elks mtfde ll&le, any money on the entertainment, biijt emphasized their trademark, "It the Elks advertise it, it's sol" Miss Wallis was comparatively unknown here as a star, and Terre Haute theatre goers as a rule do not take kindly to new stars, as some can testify who make far greater pretensions than this little woman.
WANO.
No oompany that has appeared at Naylor's Opera House this season has created such a favorable impression the "Wang" company, and there Will be univerBatyleasure at the announ^em^i of its return next Friday night T1tfcm" production of that delightful op^pa. Many who saw Albert Hart as "Wah£" think he is far superior to De, Wolf Hopper, the oreator of the pari The other members of the company are equally excellent, aud the presentation is one that strikes the popular fahoy.
One of the scenes in "Wang*' represents the river landing place of one of Siam's least .known towns. This is Pechaburi, one -hundred miles southwest of Bangkok. Although the king has a summer palace there and the place will some day be famous as a sanitarium for Europeans, yet its present obscurity, made it a matter of great difficulty to obtain accurate data upon which to cofi^ struct the scenery for "Wang." This scenery will be used in ail its entirely, on next Friday evening. ~A. press-dispatph reoenj&jua ^e^*tf^-crown^^6fn "by Klfifc omm weighs twenty eigne pounds. Although less in weight the coronation crown -used in the Siamese opera of "Wang" is a perfect reproduction of the original. It is a conica.1 cap of gold forming a pagoda, or high pyramid of filigree work studded with diamonds, rubies, sapphires and' emeralds.
The seat sale for "Wang" opens Mon day morning at Buntin's, and tbe prices will be as follows: Entire lower floor, t&l.OO first three rows in family circle, 15c admission to family circ'"*, 50o gallery^. 25c.

There will also be ft grand chorus of adult voices and

The spectacular effect of such numbers of people in costume is wonderfully impressive, Among the most attractive feature-« will be a beautiful, oriental castanet dance by sixteen graceful girls and a fine fancy drill by sixteen boys. Although Egypta Is to be given three night*, Monday will probably be the most brilliant as there will be a number of fuil dress opera parties that night and a number of social, business and politi c.tl ciubj wilt attend in a body, noticeably the Jackson club whioh will be present 150 strong.

ABOUT WOMEN-
It is said the average weight of an American women is 1S24K pounds. John J. Ingalls describes a woman who wacj to vote as "an opalescent pban* tasy."
Acoordiug to the latest enumeration there are 26,000 more women than men in Philadelphia.
About tbe only thing that some stingy women ever give to others is an unfavorable impression.
The average woman, it is said, is as proud of the trouble she has with her .hired girl as she is of her bonnet.
Nobody but a loving mother could weep bitter tears over a lost child, and then spank it energetically for returning.
The-number
of unmarried women in
England and Wales exceeds the number of uumarrled men by a majority of nearly 200,000.
A Germautoyn bride grew indignant when her grocer asked her if she wanted #ny cracked wheat. She replied that she could afford to buy the very best.
According to the last report of the New York exchange for woman's work, it sold last yeat over |13,000 worth of home-made cakes. Since 1878 the value of the cakes efold has been nearly fl40, 000. The exohange has thus far filled 78,962 orders for sewing, embroidery, and fancy articles, aud only 271 were un satisfactory. Sweet and practical charity can be made more than self-support-ing with proper management.
The
engagement of Jay Gould's youngest daughter, Miss Anna Gould, is confirmed by her brother. The lucky dog who has wooed and won the pretty possessor of $12,000,000 or so is Count. Jean de Castelirtue of Paris, who closely related to a lot of title bearers on the continent. The price she pays for the privilege of writing countess in front of her new name is said to be

For the modestsum ol 25 cents she proclaims in the newspapers her willingness to seleot a suitable name for any baby of high or low estate. All that the proud parents have to do who wish to take advantage of her professional assistance is to forward with the requisite fee suoh particulars as to their position in life, tem perament, color of the baby's eyes, the month of its birth, and one or two more of like import, and by return mail tbe applicant will receive a name which, it is stated, "is warranted to give satisfac tlon."
There is an old lady at the Louise home In1'Washington named Miss Hartley Graham* who was a belle in Sonth Caro Una sixty years ago, and was betbrothed to John C. Calhoun when he was at tbe heighth of his prominence. But for some reason he married another woman and sho has remained a maiden to this day. She has a bracelet made of his hair, whioh was a fashionable sort of keepsake in those days, and a daguerreo type that he gave her shortly after they became engaged. She spent much of her girlhood and ber womanhood in Washington, where she knew Clay and Webster and danced with Buchanan at the navy-yard balls before anybody dreamed that he would be president.
A RI8I8Q TERRE HAUTE AN. Albert E.- Joab, formerly of tuis city now a colbnel on the staff of the governor of Washington, is making quite a reputation for ^himself as a publio speaker. At a recent annual dinner given by the First Free Churoh of Tacoma, Col. Joab was awarded the price for delivering tbe best speech of tbe evening. His subject wast "The First Free Churoh from a Lawyer's Standpoint."
Col. Joab is a poet of no mean ability, as his terre Haute friends remember, and In a recent number of the Tacoma News he contributes the following tribute to Burns: Immortal bard, of Bcotia's rugged dime,
Thou bonny flower of the rural shade, Deflour*d and wlther'd, ere yoo reached life's prime,
And, like the "daisy," crushed and lowly laidL... The little monsle's fate, when viewed with ... thine,
