ON THE QUI VIVE.
It is understood that the Populists and Democrats are to have some fun at their v-meeting at the court house this afternoon, to discuss the question of fusion on their bounty ticket. Some of the Populism are in favor of withdrawing some of their candidates, putting Democrats in their place, and then endorsing the entire new ticket.
Others of the so-called "middle of the road" people are opposed to this, and for that reason there are likely to be some interesting developments this afternoon. The idea of the Populists is to have the legislative ticket changed by the withdrawal of one of the candidates for representative, as well as the one for seuator, and put in their places men who are pledged to the defeat of Senator Voorhees in his effort to be returned to the United States senate. The Democratic county convention endorsed Mr. Voorhees by resolution, nominated men for the legislature who were known to be faithful to him and his cause, and for that reason any effort to take either of them off the ticket is likely to meet with failure. The Democrats and Populists may fuse as a result of to-day's meeting, but if they do it will be on the basis that the Populists surrender their ticket aud endorse that of the Democrats. At least that is what a friend tells me, who claims to be on the "inside" in today's business. So many people claim to be on the "inside" of everything political nowadays that it is difficult to know those who are really "next," In this case, however, the proof of the pudding will be in the eating.
It is said that a committee representing the prominent business men will present a communication to the city .council asking that an ordinance be passed prohibiting the use of Roman candles in political parades in this city. If such a petition is presented, and whether it is or not, such an ordinance ought to be passed. There $ isn't any valid objection that can be urged W Hgaiast it, so far as I know, and there are a thousand reasons, more or less, that can be urged in its favor. More clothing is Injured by the use of Roman candles than by any other form of campaign article.
Every spectator of a political parade in which these candles are used takes his life in his own hands when he venture# on the street. Under the excitement of a political parade meu forget themselves and where they are "at," and are just as likely to turn one of the candles on a crowd of children as to point it in the air. That more people have not been injured or .had their eyesight destroyed by the use of these candles is practically a miracle. There area great many men, radical partisans of both parties, who like to help their party out by assisting in a parade, who will not do so if Roman candles are used in processions. The prohibition or Roman candles does not shut off business for the dealers in these goods, for with them out of the way Greek fire and such things that are not dangerous can be used. By all means the council should pom an ordinance prohibiting the use of Roman candles on the streets. It is said that if sack an ordinance is passed a great many intst* cent persons not familiar with the law will be punished and pot to great expense. In answer to this it can be said that when the council passed a law against the blowing of horns in political parade* not a man was punished for violating the law. The

We're going to have an Opera House here In Terre Haute this fall and winter, even if it's only a temporary one. It will be located centrally, as said before it will very likely be temporary, but its liBt of bookings will include nearly every promt
attraction in the country. Who's going to do this? Why, the Dicksons, if no others. They have interests here that they are too shrewd to neglect, and they will take chances on losing money by the erection of a temporary theater rather than have such an amusement loving comma nity as this go a whole season without a show. They have offered a goodly sum for the Congregatioiial church property at Sixth and Cherry for the location of the new theater, and their offer included a provision that the new theater building should be furnished rent free to the congregation of that church for the period of five years. The offer, I have heard, was 118,000, but when it was learned that there was a possibility of disposing of the property the price was raised. Not being able to come together on the price of that property, it is said that the executors of the S. 8. Early estate were made an offer for their desirable lot on the southwest corner of Seventh and Ohio streets, on which to erect a temporary building for theatrical purposes. I have not heard as to the success wtth which this offer was met. Either of these locations would be models for the purpose named. Both are convenient to the street cars, to the busi* ness part of the city, and either of the lots is of sufficient size on which to erect a building Suitable for the purpose desired. We must have a theater the coming winter, and if the Dicksons are enterprising enough to furnish us one, even if only a temporary affair, they will reap a good, rich reward in the years to come. The people of Terre Haute are not slow to recognize push and "get-up." They are not likely to put on their list of "has beens" men who furnish them with the amusements they are hankering for right now th«t the evenings are beginning to be cool. The crowd that packed the casino at Harrison park Thursday night proves that the people want to be amused. The men who amuse them will profit thereby.

It is very likely that Terre Haute will be numbered among the cities that will send delegations to visit Major McKinley at his home in Canton. A round trip rate of 96 has been secured. It

dles do A committee from Terre Haute will call on the Central Passenger association at a meeting to be held in Chicago on Monday, in the effort to secure more favorable consideration from the railroads when the Trotting Association meeting and the conclave of the Princes of the Orient are held here during the week of September 21. Another evidence of the injustice that is being done Terre Haute interests is furnished by the announcement that there will be another $8 excursion to Chicago next week, tickets being good going the 10th and returning the night of the 12th. Any man who has business in Chicago can take advantage of this excursion for $3, where ordinarily the round trip rate is over 19. A man in Chicago who wants to attend the races and conclave in this city will have to pay the $9, for the reason that the one fare round trip rate is furnished by the railroad only as far north as Danville. Announcement is also made that parties of forty from Terre Haute who want to visit Major McKinley at Canton can get a rate of $5 for the round trip. The ordinary round trip to Canton is $20. Every inducement is offered to people in Terre Haute to go to some other city to spend their money, butwhen the railroads are invited to make some concessions to Terre Haute people, to induce our neighbors to visit us, when we really have something interesting to offer them, it is met with a cold and marble heart. The railroads have deprived themselves of many a dollar in business in this way. A man who recently visited Evansville told me that there would be no trouble in getting a crowd of three hundred from that city to attend the race and Princes of the Orient meeting here this month, if anything like a reasonable rate could be secured, a rate in proportion to that offered the same people if they wanted to go to Chicago. With the rates offered now people will save their money rather than pay more of it to come to Terre Haute than they have been compelled to pay to visit Chicago. Railroad managers are supposed to know their own busine^, and they are not engaged in it for ftfn, but it does look like that they are losing an opportunity to get"nekfc"to the people when they pot such exorVi'wit prices on the good si they have to sell to other cities while they offer them to our people at such low prices.
probable that a
crowd of at least one hundred could be secured here in Terre Haute to call on him, on the understanding that every man should pay his own expenses. Five dollar bills are not growing on bushes this year, and are therefore very hard to get hold of, but men would go without something chat they really needed in order to get a chance to visit the Republican candidate at his home. The movement to

its infancy yet, but some enthusiasts are likely to give it a boom.

ABOUT WOMEN.
Si!®
Few women seem to appreciate the necessity as well as the value of a night toilet. They reserve all their grooming methods for daylight trial and are content to slip into bed with only a hfcSCy attack on their teeth with the tooth brush and few rapid strokes of the hair brush upon their locks. Now, the ultrafashionable' sister would as soon think of slighting her toilet details before she goes to dreamland as she would venture into breakfast-room with combed locks. She realizes that night is the time to repair whatever ravages the day has made in her looks. In the firs# place, just before going to bed is the best time to take a warm bath, for the bather then has the entire night to rest if there is any fatigue attendant upon the hot tubbing. Night is the proper time to take a facial steam bath. This pore-cleansing plan is apt to make the skin look blotchy and red for a time, and it is an advantage to be able to apply a creamy unguent and' let the "parboiled" effect Wear off before morning. When there is need of a facial bath of soap and water (and the't
yare
times
when the skin calls for this practical cleansing) it is better to take it just before retiring. The use of a little cold cream will remedy the drawn, stretched feeling the skin is likely to assume, but no woman can start out on her day's duties with a cream-daubed countenance. Hence the value of a night toilet.
Those much-talked-about "fifty strokes of the hair brush" should be doubled at night, when the dust that has accumulated in madam's tresses needs to be removed. It is an untidy habit, this slighting the head, as well as any other part of the body.^ Nothing betrays lack of attention so plainly as one's hair. No one can expect to secure a lustrous, satiny head of hair if too lazy to bring the brush into vigorous pltiy-
Dentists' bills would be less heavy if women would appreciate the value of thorough mouth grooming before retiring. The tooth brush should be deftly carried into every crevice of the teeth and the month well rinsed out with a little water and myrrh or listerine.
One young girl whose hands are the admiration of all her friends confides that she does her most careful manicuring before she goes to bed, incasing her hands, after the digits have been artfully tended, in cerate gloves. In the morning she has ,only to wash her hands* in a lather of castile soap and warm water or use a little almond meal and they are perfetftioff froifi' wrist to finger tip'. Going to bed with half-soiled hands is sure to rub the dirt in, so to speak, and the skin soon loses its fineness of texture.
In a recent magazine article Margaret Sutton Briscod *vkes some statements which society women' might' well lay to heart. She says that at the very door of a house a servant will unconsciously betray the atmosphere of the home behind. As the mistress is hospitable or unhospitable, the servant will, by 'Sffme subtle law of contagion, open the door to a guest graciously or ungraciously. If the mistress is to be excused it will be done according to her spirit, regretfully, or with that certain aggressiveness and enjoyment of refusal which most of us at one time or another resented. Through her servants ismercii lessly betrayed the candid will of the householder, expressed with none of the pretty graceful veneer that the drawingtroomc uncertainty paralyzes it. Would afford. The staff of an untidy mistress are all untidy. A mistress whose law is system has a staff that takes pattern after her.
Like mistress like maid is as true a proverb as ever was written. There are many women who so fully realize the effect of their maid on those who are about them that when nervous or irritable they shut themselves away from the outside world, refusing to see anyone. No msj is a hero to his valet, but all women might be heroines to their maids did they possess the mle of strict self-control or strict retirement when no longer in condition to rule wisely. Righteous anger may be a needed corrective, but irritation never yet accomplished anything more than rout and confusion.
It is not only in sweeping lines of conduct that the mistress guides the maids. The maid is like the mistress in general things, and also in things particular and varying from day to 'day. The changing moods of the head of the hanse all find their exaggerated expressions'in satell tes that revolve about them. If a woman at the coming of night lies down with the thought in her heart that something has been all wrong in the household through the twelve hours, she may be fairly sure that self-examination will show her how her own morning's'mood has set the fashion and opened the ball. There is no garment so becoming as an easy, happy mind, and the house mother, if she be wise, will don it on rising or if she be wily, and find only a garment of somber hne in her wardrobe when she opens its door, she will speedily weave into its dullness forced brightness and determined cheer.,
for what
she wears at breakfast she may be sure all her little court will copy and wear faith-3 fully throughout the day.

geometry. In high school and college boratories she spends long hours in analyzing, dissecting, mounting and labeling biological specimens, and during recreation hours, when not engaged in her natural diversions of coqueting with the opposite sex, is golfing or biking or enjoying some form of outdoor sport. After her graduation, having been thoroughly imbued with the idea of independence and self-support during her school training, she, of course, "feels it a duty to show that she can continue to get on alone. To avow that she means to study homemaking with a view of getting married and "living happy ever afterward," would occasion no end of ridicule and even spiteful comment as to her [anxiety for winning a husband.

ITEMS FOR THE FA!R|.
It Is well, says an authority", to change the way of dressing the hair occasionally to rest it and restore its vigor. If arranged permanently in one way it is apt to become thin, brittle and dull. A further caution is to part the hair afresh every day, otherwise the parting will widen most unbe oomingly.

The petals are first preserved in a candied snip, like rose leaves, and then sprinkled through a jelley of light flavor, and barely stiff enough to hold together.

NEWS OF THE CITY
John Downs, a miner employed by Broadhurst Bros, at their mines in Sugar Creek township, fell down the shaft at the mines Wednesday morning and was instantly killed.
Mr. Cole, of Chicago, has been'invited to appear before the council, to answer questions that may be put to him regarding his report on the belt sewer. This action was decided on at the meeting of the council Tuesday night.
The grand jury, which will convene next Wednesday, the 9th, is composed as follows Charles M. Daggett, city Brice P. Taylor, city Thomas Hook, Linton township Benjamin F. Beard, Pierson township Gabe Pennington, Fayette township Levi G. Hughes, Lost Creek township.
Father Gerald M. Wilson, of St. Joseph's church, died last evening at six o'clock. His death is sincerely regretted by a large circle of friends, including many who are not identified with his faith. He wa»a brilliant member of his church, and although a resident of this city but about four years, bad made many friends. He was a native of Brooklyn, and was thirtythree years of age. He was ordaioed a priest in 1892, and had been identified with the interests of St. Joseph's parish since 1898. The funeral will take place next Tuesday morning, and will be a notable affair, from the fact that the priests of all the neighboring parishes will be in attendance. In fact, it is said that every priest in this diocese will be in attendance on the ceremonies.
The school board at its meeting last night completed the list of teachers in the public schools for the coming year. There are very few changes in the list. The following are the principals in the districts named: 1st, John Donaldson 2d, Jennie Farnham 8d, Helen E. Tyler 4th, J. A. Boyer 5th, Rae E. Wilkins 6th, John L. Gordon 7th, Wm. Ward 8th, Chester L. Fidlar 9th, Addie M. Sparks 10th, John W. Sims 11th, Kate Jdoran 12th, S. W. Stewart 13th,Mary Redifer 14th, Joseph Jackson 15th, Thomas H. Grosjean 16th, Ovid Lawrence 17th, O. E. Connor 18th, Herbert Briggs. Misses Alice Dempsey, Emilie Neukom and Laura Frazee were appointed observation teachers, Miss Charlotte Longman, music teacher, Louis Rippetoe, director of physical culture, and E. E. Utterback, teacher of writing and drawing. "The Skeletons Mee«ag^ "*and "The Old Indian Orchard" are two very interesting publications issued this week by the Inland Publishing company. The first is by Mrs. Lydla Landon Elliott, who has attained prominence as a writer, and whose poems in this volume add quite a good deal to her reputation. In sentiment and rythm they are equal to many more pretentious efforts, and they will no doubt, as the author expresses the hope, find many interested readers. "The Old Indian Orchard" is the production of Chester L. Fidlar, of this city, who recites a legend connected with thfe old Indian orchard, familiar to many of the old residents, on north Water street, near the Vandalia railroad. Both these volumes were issued from the press of Moore & Langen, and they compare most favorably with the publications of the largest publishing houses in the country. The typography is perfect, the press work and bidding are models of these departments of the publishing business, and one who sees these books is well fortified in the opinion that those who need the finest work in the way of book publishing do not need to go to the large cities for the same, for the simple reason that it can be done right here at home.
"NOBODY KILLED BUT THE FIREMAN/
So the Passengers and the Jtailroad Officials Said, but tbe Point of View Made a Difference.
In the brilliantly lighted billiard-room of the Palmer House sat a young man, says the Chicago Tribune. He paid little atten tion to the players, but watched the (loot leading into the hotel office as if expecting some one. Suddenly his face lighted up as a young fellow about his own age entered" the room. 'Hello, Tom!" said the new-comer, as he shook hands with the young man who was seated and apparently had been waiting for him, "have you been waiting long?" "You're a dandy to keep an appointment," replied Tom "I've waited here nearly two hours for you to play that game of billiards." "Well, tell the man to bring ttie balls and we'll start in. I couldn't get here any sooner. Had a wreck out here on the C. & G. road. Two freights came together and smashed things up so that it delayed our train over two hours." "Kill any one?" asked Tom. "Only the fireman," the other replied.
At 830 the following morning tbe general manager of tbe C. & G. R. R. entered his office. Seating himself at the desk he hurridly over a pile of telegrams and reports that were lying there, picked out several of the telegrams, and, crossing the hall, enterad4he president's office. "Any news this morning?" ssked the praddent. "Yes," the manager replied, "I#Vegot reports of a bad wreck on tbe C. Sc S. division. No. 21, weet-boundt and fast stock train No. 96 collided two miles west of Pfrtw Junction. About eighty bead of stock killed and four or five cars of freight destroyed and botit engines badly wrecked." "Whosefault?" inquired the president. »Mng, Qigjit operator at Avon. He had

orders for 21 to meet 36 at Shelby, but neg: lected to hold 21." "Any one killed or injured?" inquired president. "Only the fireman on 81. I believe the reports stated that he was killed," replied the manager.
Over on the West Side, in a cozy little flat, a young woman was busily engaged in preparing supper. She did not seem to get along with her work very fast, as she stopped nearly every minute to talk to a little mite of humanity who watched her movements intently with big blue eyes the very counterpart of her own. "Google-Goo," said the baby, with a serious expression on his face. "Google-Goo will be here in half an hour, and just think, baby, Google-Goo won't have to go way again for nearly two whole days. Won't that be nice And to-mor-row, if you are real good, yon, Google-Goo and I will go down to the park," said the little woman as she picked up the baby and commenced to waltz around the room. "Here comes Google-Goo now," she exclaimed as a step sounded on the stairs. "He's a little early to-night."'
She threw open the door and there stood a big policeman. "Is this Mrs. Allerton he asked. She only nodded her head, poor little girl, and couldn't speak. There was no need to ask the big policeman why he was there. "Bring him up here," she quietly said.
Silently and with uncovered heads they carried their burden up the stains and tenderly laid him on tbe bed. Slie did not shriek or cry out. Kneeling she clasped the poor mangled form in her arms, and as she kissed the cold face, all stained with blood and cinders, her head sank forward. Tenderly they raised her up, as unconscious as the still form beside her. "Google-Goo," says the baby.
It WAS only her fireman.
