The Treble Clef club will give its fourth annual concert at the First Congregational church, on Tuesday evening, May 25th. with Mrs. Annie Rommeiss Thacker, whose singing at the concert last June captivated every listener as the soloist. The club numbers sixty-seven ladies, with Mrs. Allyn Adams as director.

The petit jury for the May term of the Circuit court has been impaneled as follows: Ira Modesitt, Henry McPherson, Henry Scholten, Thomas Beauchamp, Thomas Caughlin, Wm, F. Otte, Jeremiah Cruise, Benjamin Franklin, Raymond Joslyti, Isaac Beauchamp, Peter Dolau and Thomas Meredith.

The cafe at the Terre Haute club house has been closed, the contract with W. A. Matern, the former manager having expired Saturday. The club will in the future be managed by the members and instead of the cafe there will be a buffet for the sale of liquors and cigars only. Herman Weber will have charge of the buffet.

Sarah J. Holmes, wife of B. Holmes, the real estate dealer, died at 8 o'clock Monthly evening at the family residence, 420 north Ninth.

The Walter Duenweg road race which was run Wednesday evening over a ten mile course which began at Ninth and Lafayette streets and ended at Seventeenth and I'oplar streets, was highly successful, and attracted much attention, several thousand people gathering at the finish. The places were won as follows: Position —George Rossell, Jr., first, 29:23 1-5 Harry Hedges, second, 30:51 Frank Hulman, third, 28:51. Time—Arch Ferguson, first, 28:31 8-5 C. A. Forster, second, 28:41 Hal Dronberger, third, 28:41 2-5. The prizes won in the race are as follows: Time Prizes first, diamond, t!U5 second, pair Uormully & Jeffrey tires, $12 third, twentieth century lamp, |4. Position—first, Yale racer, $75 second, Palmer or Morgan & Wright tires, $10 third, cyclometer, $2. George Rossell, who won the position prize had a handicap of three minutes, and won handily. It is his first entry into the racing field and his success is surprising.

He is but sixteen years of age, and a son of

George Rossell, the well known Stearns t,jie

agent. The March examination by County Superintendent Curry of those who had applied for teachers' license was not very successful in its results. Of the eighty-six applicants but twenty-four passed. The highest grade of percentage was 90, which entitled the holder to a three years' license. Two others were given three years' license, four received a percentage entitling them to two years' lioense, while three others wore given one year's license.

Township Assessor Otto O. Carr this week unearthed a big mortgage for$l7tt,000 in favor of the Josephus Collett estate, and he immediately listed it for taxation. It was given by Kdgar Lyon and wife, of ljake county, and the assessor has written there to learn the particulars of this big mortgage. The work of making the assessment is about completed, a force of thirty-one men having been employed since the first of April. An office foroe of three or four men will be required for quite a while yet to get the lists properly indexed. It is believed that unless material changes arc made in the assessment by the board of review, there will be a material increase in the personal property over last year's assessment.

The Central I«abor Union has already begun preparations for the observance of labnr Day in the proper manner. At the regular meeting on Monday night the fol lowing memlH'rs were named as a committee to take charge of the affair: W, Johnson, Byron Martin. K. H. Evinger, George Lynch, Victor Boettinger, Henry Harrison. John Burge. S. O. Cooley, l. J. Forbeck, James Thompson. M. J. Deasee, Thomas Monvn, A. J. Melville, C. E. Russell. J. W. leaner, Sherman Donham. Warren Brown and E. Gibson. The president and treasurer of the union will also act in conjunction with the committee. This committee will meet at Washington hall to morrow morning, at 9 o'clock, for the purpose of organisation.

The new probate docket of the Circuit court is about oompleted. and shows 687

cases, some dating back to the fifties. The probate business is in a terrible tangle, and it is thought that it will be necessary to appoint a special judge to take charge of this branch of the Circuit court business to straighten it out. If a special judge is appointed the appointment will likely fall to Joshua T. Crandell. who has had charge of the preparation of the new docket.

The Terre Haute Packing Co.'s plant will begin operations about the first week in June, and will turn out more goods than last year, the acreage contracted for being much larger.

Terre Haute failed to get the G. A. R. enoampment for 1898, that honor being awarded Columbus, which had a large representation of her business men there working for the prize. Terre Haute will, however, make an effort to secure the meeting for 1899. Nicholas Filbeck was elected a member of the council of administration at Richmond, this being the only honor that fell to Terre Haute in the election of officers.

The civil cases against John S. Beach, growing out of the failure of the Prairie City bank in August, 1893, have been set down for trial on the 28th of June, before Silas D. Coffey, of Brazil, as special judge. Judge Piety is disqualified to serve in the case as he was counsel for plaintiff in the cases before the court. Vigo county this week paid over to Parke county the sum of $950, cost incurred in changes of venue taken to that county from here. Of this amount $531.75 was incurred by the trial of the State vs. John S. Beach.

The guessing contest of Myers Bros, closed on Monday. Miss Ada Butler, of St. Mary's, and Wm. F. Hild, the wellknown barber, were the successful guess ers, and were awarded the prizes of splendid Damascus wheels. The jar contained by actual count 41,543 beans. Miss Butler's guess was 41,573, and Mr. Hild's41,538. As in all guessing contests there was a wide range of estimates. The wildest guess was that of Chas. Thomas, who fixed the number of beans at 3,493,681, while Miss Rose Hane, of Cloverdale, guessed the number as 1,078.

Expert marksmen from St. Iiouis, Cincinnati and other large towns will be here. The match will last three days. I^ast year a tournment was given which was successful in every particular. The contest will probably be held at the base ball park.

Myers Bros., the enterprising clothiers, inaugurated another novel guessing contest this morning. Two elegant Damascus wheels, one for a gentleman and the other for a lady, will be given to the persons guessing nearest to the number of words contained in ten different advertisements of the firm that have appeared in the city papers.

J. FRED PROBST,

many months, had become despondent, and in his despair had swallowed three ounces of carbolic acid. The dead man was the son of Mrs. Ward Weaver, who lives in Independence, Kansas. His si&ter, Mrs. Belle Noyes, who lives at Seventeenth and Poplar streets, survise him.

An old gentleman named Haveliu, living in Prairie Creek township, becoming alarmed by the failure of banks, decided that he would act as his own banker, and therefore buried his money in the garden in the rear of his house. Recently two of his children by his first wife came to visit him, inquired about his money, and where he kept it. In a burst of confidence he told them, aud they returned home shortly afterward. When he went to look at his money a few days later he found that it had disappeared, and now he complains to the police, and wants them to find his money for him. The children insist that they know nothing about his money, and that the information he gave them about it must have been overheard by some other parties who took advantage of it. Meanwhlile the old gentleman is short about $2,000. Replevin suits have been begun against his two daughters by his first wife, who reside in Clay county. S. R. and M. C. Hamill appearing for plaintiff.

The teachers of the Fifteenth and Eighteenth district schools have been exchanging courtesies. These are the two new school buildings, and in order to show off their advantages to the the teachers of each and to the school board, days have been set for visitations. Two weeks ago the Eighteenth district teachers entertained and Wednesday of this week those of the Fifteenth returned the compliment. Besides the regular teachers of the ward, the critic teachers and the members ot the school board were invited to call immediately after school closed Wednesday. A table beautifully ornamented with flowers was set in an upper room. Twen-ty-three sat down and partook of icecream and cake. At each plate was a bunch of lillies of the valley. After refreshments a tour of inspection was made through the different rooms to see the working capacity of this fine structure.
