TERRE

HAUTE,

A SWEET little girl baby made her appearance ic tbe household of the president thin week, the third of that sex in about four years. It is said that the president bad eet his heart on a boy baby, but the fates having been unkind to tbe Democratic party during tbe past few months be was compelled to put up with the disappointment. The president is, however, comparatively a young man, and there is one thins: to be said, iu his favor. He never gives up.

CHICAGO published her 1896 directory this week, and the fHOt in disclosed that tbe great World's Fair city is third in the list of great cities of the world, be ing outranked only by London and Paris among thecities of which any defi iiite information can be obtained. According to the estimates prepared by the publishers of the new drectory the population of Chioago Is 1,695,000 which enables her to out class New York, and is all that the average denizen of the windy city desires.

FAILING to find anything else to criticise about ex-President Harrison the Democratic newspapers and those Republicans opposed to hinr* have taken up an alleged Interview with him abdut female bicyclists, and are scoring him unmercifully about this opinion. It develops that no soch interview was ever held with blm, but those papers that have criticised blm will not find room in their valuable columns to cor rect tbe mis statement. One of tbe penalties of greatness is to be tbe subject of criticism at tbe hands of every cheap newspaper wit, and while tbe things at stake in the present instance are bat trifliug, it serve* to show to what ends some opponepts will go to find fault.

DIANAPOLI% has a base ball team that Is winning everything in sight, but that does not satisfy the denizens of the capital city. With their characteristic Indianapolis spirit they think the visiting clubs, like Davy Crockett's copn, should give up as soon as they get on the Indian apolis grounds, and because the umpire doesn't give them tbe bent of every decision he is called upon to render, tbe papers are filled with wholesale condemnation of that greatly abused official. Indianapolis wants everything in sight, in business, politics or sport, and cannot understand why other people don't give up to them even withont being asked. Their tale of woe is like a continued story, regular Installments of which are published every day.

THE recent very general rains have raised the expectancy regarding the wheat and corn crops, which a f»w weeks ago were thought to be doomed. It is aald that as a result of the rains tbe spring wheat will reach a total of 475,000000 bushels, or from 25,000,000 to 50,000,0*0 bushels in excess of the est! mate a month ago, The corn has been benefitted immeasurably as well, and It is estimated that the crop will reach 2,000,000,000 bushels, or very olose to the hlgheet mark known. Large crops will be a great benefit to business this year, as it is a well known fact that when our farmers are prospering every other branch of business is benefitted as well The Indications are very pronounced for revival In business, and the big crops will help to push such a good thing well along.

TH* b(«werie* and the brewers have never been looked upon as very Import ant adjuncts to th« Republican party, as their efforts to nearly every iastanoe -where tbey have taken part in politic*— and tbey are always In it—have been -directed towards the opposition to that party, but they have braced up their assurance to such an extent that they will go before tbe next Republican con gross to ask that an increased tax of one dollar a barrel be put on the beer pro&noed in this country. The movement la said to be festered by the eastern towers who figure that such a tax will «drtve the western brewers otit of the

Wearehavingmanytheoriesadvanced regarding tbe regulation of the temper* aoce question, but in this country, no matter what the attempt may be, we are not able to handle it with tbe results that are attained In the older countries, In Birmingham, England, for inatanoe, tbey are making an experiment, that is likely to produoe good results in this greatly discussed matter. A olty public bouse has been started In the suburbs of that olty, which la noted fur ita many advanced ideas in municipal matters, where llquortf are bought and aold by the municipality, and retailed by a manager who has no interest iu the business. It is interesting to note that a man's morning beer is limited to one quart, while in the evening he is permitted to purchase two quarts. Something like this experiment has been attempted in several Massachusetts towns, but we bear so little of them, that it may be doubted whether they are as successful as their promoters would have its believe. We always hear the rosy sides of schemes tq promote temperanoe and prohibition, as in the oases of Kansas and Maine, and the bad things about them are always denied, and until we hear that the sohemes are successful from a reliable source—we may be permitted to doubt their success.

THE new "tight little isle," or isles, to be more proper, Japan, is not going to lose any time iu taking advantage of tbe war indemnity she is to receive from China, the dimensions of which may be realized when it is stated*that she will receive over $100,000,000 before May next, and 120,000,000 each year for five years. This will be her revenue in addition to her usual receipts from customs and in ternal revenues. It is announced that a very considerable portion of the war indemnity referred to is to be spent in building war ships for the new Japanese navy, wbicb has demonstrated its availibility and worth in a series of naval battles that surpass anything known in modern naval warfare. Oue of the good features of the expenditure for war vessels is that a goodly portion of it is likely to be spent with American boat builders, whose excellent work, as shown in the white squadron, has attract ed the attention of all the maritime nations of the world. The display by the American war ships at the recent naval evolutions at the opening of tbe German canal at Kiel, attrasted marked attention, and gave strong evidence of the fact that naval construction has reached its high water mark anions the Ameri oans who have turned their attention in that direction. If Japan has several millions of dollars to spend in the construction of a new navy, she can spend it to no better advantage than with our American ship builders

A HOOSIKR diplomat, John W. Foster, is the most talked-about man in tbe oountry just now. He has just returned from the orient, where he acted for China in negotiating the treaty which brought the Chino-Japanese war to a close, and be is credited with having received a fabulous sum for bis'services in that transaction. The rule has been that when a man engaged In diplomacy he must have a fat bank account, and a willingness to part with his dollars for the pleasure of wearing a title, but Mr. Foster has broken this rule. He has made diplomacy his business, and has prospered at it. It is said that he has enjoyed an income of from $30,000 to $50,000 a year as a result of bis knowledge of tbe profession. It is said that his services for China in settling the war troubles will bring him in the neighborhood of $100,000 in gold, In addition to valuable presents, and a decoration from the Chinese Emperor. He declined the position of adviser to the Chinese government, for the reason that, as he said, he bad spent the best years of bis life in foreign lands in the servioe of his oountry, and now that he ha* reached the age when he should be content to pass his life in peace he prefers to spend it in the enjoyment of life in his native land. It is not given to many men to play such an important part in the diplomatic history of any other than his native land, fed it is a matter of pride to every resident of the Hoosler state that one of her citizens should hare attained this promlnenoe.
