It seems a pity that the father and mother of "Little Lord Fantleroy" have felt compelled to te separated and announce to the world that so far as they are concerned inarriHtre has been a failure. Mrs. Burnett evidently ban thought so for many years as she has lived in Europe while her husband made his home in Washington

The true Briton loves fair play and is a true sportsman, and he himself will tell you so, not once but many times. He is like the host who aspires to a reputation for hospitality and who calls your attention to his hospitality while you are partaking of it. The essence of fair play Is lacking with the Englishman as is the essence of hospitality with the host.

All

the after dinner effusive protesta

tion of good will and rejoicing over the uniting of the people of the two English speaking nations as a result of international yaoht racing, now will have to be accepted as having been as insinoere as the formal dosing of a diplomatic ultimatum whioh means war, of "with renewed assurances of distinguished consideration," etc.

If the yachting authorities would permit Superintendent Jeffers of our race track, to prepare the course for the yaoht races with a little of the clay from Clay and Putmau counties, *e might have some record breaking time. We may not knw much abom the spinnaker and "slch" out here on the Wabash, but in the language of the Gazette, we have the only man in the world who knows how to make a "JefferS'Onlan" race traok.

The Vigo Connty Fair is to be restored to the glory of those years when nearly twenty thousand persons passed through the gates in one day. The annual fair affords a first clans opportunity for tbe people of the country and city to come together. No day of the week furnishes more enjoy me it than Wednesday, children's day The school* might as well close for all day to give the children a whole holiday, to pionio in the beautiful grounds. Tbe half holiday is a good thing but a whole holiday is better and the school children would not lose anything by it.

Mb. Km Hardir knows more about the dangers of too frequent publlo utter* anoes than when he came to this country. He has had innumerable rows and is loaing his temper with the probability that he will get into very bad entanglements with many persons who otherwise might have been his friends and admirers. There are very few men who oan talk dally on all subjects and express positive views who will not make more opponent* than admirer*. Mr. Hardle's latest trouble was oansed by an incident at Chioago where he abased the oourtesy of tbe Methodist ministers by making attacks on religion and saying other things whioh he ought to have known would be unpleasant to his hearer*. Mr. Hardie must remember that be was a guest and that however firm may be his convictions on many quentions that when he is especially invited to addreos a gathering of a particular ©las* of men, he is under the commonest of restrictions of politeness and conrteey to be considerate of their opinions. He may hire a ball and talk as be please* and no one has the right to protest, unless bis remarks should be of an inoendlary character, and he oan make use of printer's ink freely to di«*emlnate his view*, but he must not mistake a courteous invitation fot lioense tor a diatribe often*

advertisement in a city paper this week to trade a "new and first class bicycle" for a horse would indicate that perhaps the wheel has not finally deprived the noble animal of all his field of usefulness.

Whilk the people of this country are glad to see the minimium of $100,000,000 gold in the treasury they are humiliated that au administration delegated the service to a syndicate of money lenders, who are making a profit of eight or ten millions out of the contract.

From all accounts the Louisville citizens were not content with notifying the visitors that the latch-string bung outside the door but the veterans and all who were with tbem were pulled into places of cheer and comfort after the manner of the Bowery clotbtng salesman.

slve not only to those whose guest he is but to the great majority of people well.

Tbe Hlnshaw murder trial at Danville in this state again brought expert medio*l testimony under publio scrutiny with the invariable result that laity's suspicion Is Increased that tbe doctors don't know it all that indeed even In this enlightened generation, there is muoh which is purely experimental In tbe practice of medicine, and surgery. The truth is that the best expert is the one who frankly says that he oan only tell how far modical science has progreased in any particular line of investigation. Juries and judges need beware of tbe expert who expresses positive opinions.

The Philadelphia authorities still say they will try Holmes for the murder of Pitzel in that city. Either the evidence obtained in Indianapolis, Toronto and elsewhere falls short of what it was alleged to be or the Philadelphia authorities ii tvesorne ulterior purpose in keeping the man of many murders for^them•elves.

An observant man onoe said

that his confidence in a physician was strengthened by seeing him tear up one prescription and write another wheo he bad learned more about his patient's condition. To thesuperficlal judgement this might indicate that the physioian was not capable, but on the contrary it indicated that he "knew enough to know thAt he did not know it all," and when a man arrives at that stage he may be set down as being oapable of know-, log a great deal.

H. Hulman has with characteristic generosity offered to assume the |10,000 mortgage held by the Sohlitz Brewing Co., on Qermania Hall, on the condition that the society will raise $1,500 with whioh to pay for the recent street improvement, and other incidental expenses, and a meeting will be held to-night to take action on Mr. Hulman's proposition. $100 Dollars Reward.

J. CHENEY

The readers of this paper will be pleaded to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that soience has been able to cure in all its ntages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is tbe only positive cure knowu to tbe medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting direotly upon tbe blood and mucons surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so muoh faith In its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it falls to oure. Send for list of testimonials ^Xddress,

AMUSEMENTS.

THE MIDNIGHT ALARM,

A. Y. Pearson's dramatic oompany will make It*last appearanoeat Naylor's tonight, presenting the sensational drama, "Midnight Alarm." The play Is filled with striking soenes, the full strength of whioh are well developed toy the unusnally strong oompany. In f*ot, the Pearson oompany is np to tbe standard of many hlgher prloed organ* izdtionb, and is probably one of tb* strongest companies that has ever appeared here at popular prices. Tbe warm weather of the past week has interfered somewhat with the business, and it has not been as large as tbe merits .Of the oompany deserved.

A OBAOKER JACK.

"A Cracker Jack," Herbert Hall ^inslow's latest pen produot, will be given its initial production at, Naylor's Opera House Wednesday evening of next week, and, unlike the author's former efforts, "A Cracker Jaok" is a melodrama and depends for its success on dramatio aotion, rather than oomedy, though the latter element is very strong. The early scenes of the play are laid on tbe Hudson river. They are said to be of a quiet order and merely preparatory to a later suooess, which ooour in Oklahoma, and which are credited with being exciting to a superlative degree. Among the Inoldents especially mentioned are a lynching, a tar-and-featber bee, a fight with bare knuokles, a sword encounter and the riding of the villain on the proverbial fall. The company embraces suoh people as J. G. MoDo well, Fred A. Sullivan, Olive North, Matt McGlnnis, Bozie Stephens, Earle Atkinson, Lew A. Warner, Myra Brooks, J. Wilson Dwyer, J. C. Fox, Eugenia Adams, E. E. Ellsworth, Cbas. Sylvester Doilman, William Jones, etc. The little darkey band, whlcn contains the youngest and smallest band of pickaninnies in tbe world, will also be seen with this company. They are said to. be unusually olever, Charles Doilman, the leader, being only twelve years of age, and a musical wonder. His piano solos area great feature of the performance. In addition to this there will be buck?* and wing danoing, baton twirling, sing ing, etc., and a parade of the pickaninny band at 12 o'olock, noon, Wednes day.

COMING A TTRACTIONS.

The theater-goers of this city have a rare feast ahead of tbem in the way of attractions booked for Naylor's during the coming season. Here are a few of the attractions that will visit us during the coming months, the bill for October and November being unusually strong: Roland Reed, "Princess Bonnie," "Bonnie Scotland," Ninth Regiment Band, "Darkest Russia," Primrose ft West's Minstrels, "In Old Kentucky," Walker Whitesides, Sousa's Band, "Devil's Auction," Sandow's Trocadero Vaudevilles, "Old Homestead," "Wang," "Trilby," by A.
