A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

MAN ABOUT TOWN.

The Princes of the Orient made a grand success of their parade. The only drawback was due to the weather. Those beautiful young women and children bareheaded and in white costumes made an in onpruous spectacle as they pas«td through tlie crowds of people wearing their heaviest winter wraps The managers the eveut are not to be accused of bad judgment, however, in selecting the dales for the conolave because we have bad deligbtful weather in the first days of October, although last year on October 3d there was a heavy snowstorm. The princes have demonstrated thai it is possible to attract anywhere from 5,000 to 10,000 visitors to the city on such occasions. The people were glad to come here and there should be no doubt about making the conolave, or at least an illuminated parade, an annual event, each year adding to its beauty and extent By no means is it to be understood that this week's attraction was not beau'iful or extensive but the managers will he the readiest to endorse the suggestion that the illuminated parade and fireworks can be enlarged and made more attractive. Of course the gentlemen who gave their time and infinite patience to the labor of arranging for the week's entertainment are to be commended and cordially thanked for their servioes. They know now how muoh they can do, and must expect to be as public spirited next year

The Trotting Association gave 9°2,000in purses last Monday and the total of the gate receipts was $58. While it is true that the association has not been in the bablt of having races on Monday still it was a miserably small attendance. The number of dead heads is large and the officers of the association were besieged as never before for passes. As many as five applications were made for passes for owners of one horse.

The week's races were as good as seen anywhere but Terre Haute has been spoiled. Nothing less than world's reo ords, two or three of them a day, will meet expectations. Theoity is like the regular boarder at a hotel where the menu includes highly spiced dishes. After awhile he souses his food with the hot s»uce* and soon "takas a drink of strong liquor to help through the meal only to complain in the oourse of time that the hotel fare is not as geod as it used to be contending that the food is tasteless. If he bad confined himself to the plain, wholesome dishes be would continue to enjoy his meals. The races this week have baen won, as a rule, by horses that lowered their records in do ingso. Better time was made than in the average of like olass races elsewhere throughout the season but this was not sufficient. The two-minute record was expected nothing slower was satisfac tory. The consequence of this expectation is that fault-finding has been prevalent. The Trotting Association Is not a litUedisgusted with the laok of interest In or appreciation of the race meetings and It would not be surprisingjif some of the active members stepped down and out. They feel that possibly they oould have secured special attractions in the way of attempts to beat world's records but this would have in vol ved big outlay of money with neither the Joertainty of success in speed nor an Increasejin paid admissions to equal the amount to be paid for the speoial events. If the attempts for new records failed it would but add to the feellng^of publio disappointment. It is not asj'easy to make new world's records as tt was daring the two or three years following the Introduction of the bike sulky. There was a general tumbling of records when the new sulky came into u»end the great majority of the reductions were recorded on this track. It i« not to be expeoted that the new ones will come as frequently now. While we have not reached the bottom figures still the harness horse's displays of phenomenal speed are to be fewer in number and in accord with the national and regular development of theanimal unless perchance there should be another and now unforeseen discovery of appliances to aid bim in his flight over, the mile oourse.

The Trotting Association probably will make a couple of thousand dollars on the meeting. The Fair AMOOiatkra made

sis

more than that but this year the two associations are pooling their profits. That is, on the regular programme of events. If any money had been spent by the Trotting Association

for

specials

it would have to be deducted from its share of profits, the other association not being obligated to stand a share of it. The Tiottiug Association is not a money-making enterprise for the benefit of its stockholders, I find, now and then a citizen who is, or pretends to be, under the impression that the men inter eated in the association are already receiving dividends or expeot them In the future. As a matter of fact they have not only not received any dividends but have stood assessments on their stock and Incurred a heavy indebtedness. Whatever money they have made by these race meetings which have done so muoh for the city was immediately expended in improvements and, as said, thousands of dollars of money in addl tion were borrowed to still farther improve the character of the Terre Haute meetings. No one has the hardihood to go so far as to say the races have not been a benefit to the city, besides afford ing rare entertainment, although, as said, there are persons who are ohurlish enough to accuse the Trotting Associa tion of being in the raoing busiuess for the financial profit of its members. The members of the association feel that the merchants, who derive direct benefit through the tradeof the visitors brought to the city by the races, have been back ward in doing their part toward helping to make the attendance larger. It is no exaggeration to say that not one third of the persons at the races live in the oity. The association some time ngo de cided not again to ask the merchants to close their stores on the afternoon of Fr'd*y, theso-called "Terre Haute day." The rpquest was mad a last year and the year before but it was unheeded.

The old question is once more up for discussion. Would innovations in the way of Barnum-like attractions bring great crowds? Would lower price of admission do it? It is undoubtedly true that races above the average in contest of speed do not awaken interest. Perhaps, to bring out the big crowds we will have to have running races, bicycle races and what not mixed with the trotting and pacing races.

Scotoh Reconciliation.

There was the "Last Anderson of Dceside," whose father, the laird, did not speak to hiin for the space of two years because he took it into his head to become a minister. "Na, an speak to his son the auld man wadna, for the very donrnees o' him. Aye, even though the minister wad sae to his faither, 'Faither, wnll ye no' speak to yer ain son?' No' yae word wad he answer, but pass him as though he hadna seen him, as muckle as to say, 'Nae son o' mine 1' "But a week or twa after the minister had lost yonn twa nice bairns wi' the scarlet fever his faither an him foregatered at the fishin—whaur he bad gane, thinkin to jook the sair thochts that he carried abootwi'him, pnir man. They were baith keen fishers an graun at it. The minister was for liftift his hat to his faither an gann by, but the anld man stood still in the middle o' the fltpad, wi' a gye queer look in his face, 'Wattie,' he said, an for gaa blink the minister thocht that his faither was gann to greet, a thing he had never see him do in all his life. Bnt the anld man didna' greet. "Wattie,'says he to his son, 'hae yea hnik?' "Aye, Saunders, that was a' be said, an the minister jnist gied him the hnik and some half dizzen fine flees forbye, an the twa o' them never said disruption mair as lang as they leeved."—"Bog Myrtle and Peat.''

Miss Hypatla Boyd.

Miss Bypatia Boyd is the first deaf and dumb girl to enter a college in this oonntry. She has passed the Wisconsin university entrance examination with honor and will begin the regnlar course tliis fall. Miss Boyd lost her hearing when she was 6 years old and the power of speech soon after. She was one of the first pupils at the Milwaukee school for the deaf and dumb, where the oral method is used exclusively. So effective did this method prove in Miss Boyd's case that when she was graduated from the school, in 1891, she was able to enter the regular high school and to understand her teachers by following the movement of their lips.

The Primitive Own.

As soon as the foroea of the explosive gases developed by the burning of powder became known the old style weapons disappeared, and firearms took their places. The first of the kind was a small gun barrel fastened to a lomg pole and fired with a slow matoh. Shot stones, of lead, iron bolts and fireballs to set buildings on fire were propelled with this apparatus. Only a short distance ooold be shot with these primitive guns. 13m old and clumsy siege machines

which

threw heavy stones by means of spring rope were changed into siege guna—Iron Age.

Spider Venom Not Deadly. A recent article by an entomological authority contains the following: "The tarantula of the west and south, the red bellied spider of New Zealand, the hepa ta of Italy and several other species of the spider family have the reputation of being deadly venomous. The fact is all spidexs are more or less poisonous, but none of them is deadly. I doubt if there is an anthentio case on record of a wealthy human being dying from a spijler's bite." :.

Without a theory it is impossible to know what we say when we speak and what we do when we act—Boyer-Ool-l«d.'

Mexican Street Oar Customs. The street oars are an institution that will cost you many a real pang before you waster all erf their peculiarities. You can hire one for your personal use and go anywhere for a day for about $8.00, with the privilege of stopping at any one place for not over two hours at a time, and* the fun you would have would be like taking a car in Chicago and going all over the North, South and West sides, pulling the car off the track and getting the policeman to put it on again if you wanted to visit at any one place for some time. These cars are driven at a gallop, and the driver holds a continuous conversation with his little mules that is always fervid and forcible and occasionally picturesque. The conductors are very accommodating, if there is a small ooin in sight, and will sell you a tioket for the lottery or a tioket for the baths, or hurry off and buy you a oigar, and then run the mules to make up for lost time. There ie a sign in the cars requesting the passengers not to detain the oar by their everlasting goodbys, but it is a dead letter. The dear women will hug and kiss and ask about the,baby and all the relatives and exchange the latest fashions on the street car' steps just the same as they try to do in more civilized lands, and the men are just as bad in their way, for they hug, ask questions, swear eternal friendship and relight the obstinate cigarette in a way to drive one mad, especially if you are in a hurry to catch a train.—New York Post's Oity of Mexioo Letter, #j§^, —5 K.\y 'i

A Clever Frenchwoman.

Mile. Jeanne Benaben is a young bluestocking of whose extraordinary attainments all Franoe is talking. This exceedingly scholarly young woman received the college degree of bachelor of arts two years ago, when she was 16. She then became professor of philosophy in a woman's college at Lyons, and this year she was a candidate at the Sorbonne for the important degree of licentiate in philosophy. The examiners were prepared for a prodigy, but were nevertheless amazed at the extent of her erudition and her serene composure in dealing with the vexed problems of Descartes, Kant and Comte. She was third on a list of 200 candidates, all of them older than herself, and is now a lecturer on the science of the mind in the College of Rouen. If she does not develop an unlucky love affair of the Bashkirtseff or Kovalevsky kind, she will have a great future.—New York Tribune.^

A Russian Girl Naturalized.

Judge BtUler in the United States district court a few days since naturalized Rosalie 1$. BLtzstein, a medical student, giving her all the rights of citizenship except voting. Miss Blitzatein is a native of Russia, and has been studying at the Women's Medical college. Her counsel stated that she wished to complete her education abroad, where she intended to study at another medical college, and as she required a passport it was necessary to have her admitted to citizenship here.

The judge'asked Miss Blitzeiein a number of questions. From her answers it appears that she is 22 years of age, and that she will return to this country after finishing her studies in Europe. She said%that she had read the constitution and gave correct replies to questions put as to its contents.—Philadelphia Record.

A Natural Organizer.

To Miss Pearl Jones of Cleveland is due the faot that there is in existence the National Association of Colored Stenographers of the United States. Miss Jones' father was supreme grand chancellor of the Colored Knights of Pythias of the World, and her faculty for organization was inherited. She sent out a call for a convention, and about 1,200 young women and young men who can play on a typewriter and write pothooks to dictation assembled recently in Chicago and made Miss Pearl president of the association which they formed.

PRAIRIK CHKEK, VIGO COUNTY, September 14,1895. Dr. C. D. Galley, Manager Magnetio Treatment, Magnetic Mineral SprlngB, Terre

Haute: DEAR SIB:—For the benefit of other sufferers, please publish this. I have been in very bad health for seven long years. In this time I have been treated by eight different physicians, namely: Dr. Crowder, of Sullivan Dr. Van Cleve, of Farmersbarg Drs. Loyd, Talbot and Moore, of Middletown, and Mayson and Wilson, of Fairbanks. All of these are good men and good physicians. I am sure they did all they could do, or all that could be done by the drug system. I wis almost in my grave. My friends and doctors all thought I could not live longer than fall. Some of these doctors thought one of my lungs was entirely gone, and I was in the iast stage of consumption. I had catarrh of the stomach aud bowels, and a complication of other troubles. My stomach was in such con dition I could not eat but little and that little was always painful to me. When I commenced the Cascade treatment with you, July l'2th, my weight was90 pounds I have taken the treatment now onh two months and in this brief time I have arisen from the last stages of consumption (as the doctors would say) to a reasonably healthy woman. My weight is now 114. I eat anything I choose and it does not hurt me. I am in better health now than I have been at any time in seven years. My doctor bills were very large, keeping me almost in poverty Paid some of these doctors as much as ?10 a trip. I have got more relief from $15 invested with you than $500 under the drug system. I have no selfish motive in giving this. I am so grateful for my recovery I think it my duty to assist others. Anyone doubting the above, call and see me at my home and be satisfied by witnessing with their .vn eyes and what my neighbors will tell them. Mm. ELXJA MYERS,
