OP LOCAL INTEREST.

Mayor Ross and the members of the citycouncil have been invited to attend the national convention of mayors and councilmen, to be held at Columbus, O., the latter part of this month. The matter will be brought up before the council at the regular meeting of that body next Tuesday night.

The Old Fellows are to have a district meeting in this city on the 15th of October, at which will be held a school of instruction. The local lodges of the order have appointed a committee consisting of James Batten, John Parway, W. H. Taber and Henry Kniptasch, to make all the necessary arrangements for the meeting-

An evidence of the standing of the city of Terre Haute in the financial word was furnished this week in the sale of some of the city bonds for sewer purposes. The bonds were for #50,000, and fourteen bids were made for them, the premiums offered ranging from $1,217 to 12,515. N. W. Harris & Co., of Chicago, who are largely interested iu the water works company, were the successful bidders at the latter figure.

Charles N. Murphy and Bruce Bement, who are working the mines of the Star Company, of this city, at Hope, British Columbia, write back in glowing terms of the rich prospects awaiting the Terre Haute men who have invested their money in that direction. A party consisting of Louis Duenweg, W. M. Hamilton, of Clinton, ex-auditor of Vermilliou county and Julius Meinicke, leave to-day for Hope to examine the company's holdings in the region.

The Sullivan Union celebrated its thir-ty-flrst anniversary this week, which cal.s attention to the fact that all of its editors are still living except Isaac M. Brown, formerly a well-known newspaper man of this city, who founded the Union, and who died in Columbus, Indiana, several years ago. All his successors are living, James IT. Cluggage, the liveryman of this city, being one of them. Another, W. A. Massie, is a member of the Supreme court of Nevada.

Kev. Francis K. Schwedes, pastor of the Evangelical Reformed church since 1887, made his last appearance in the pulpit of that church last Sunday, having decided to retire permanently from the ministry. He will be succeeded by Rev. Most, of West Philadelphia. Rev. Schwedes has a son who is pastor of a church at Bethlehem, Pa. He has moved from the parish house, at Kighth and Ohio streets, to his handsome new house on north Fifth just above Chestnut, where he will reside with his three daughters.

The interminable Laverty will

CAse,

in

which Mrs. .). C. Casto, of this city, is one of the heirs, has taken on another phase in the death of the posthumous child of the rich Parke county farmer, Aquilla I^averty, who left a will cutting off the children of his first wife, and leaving the bulk of his property to his present wife and their one child. When the little one came after his death it rendered the will void, and the children of the first wife came in for their share of the estate. Now the ease is still further complicated by the death of this child, and the fight over the will is likely to bring rich fruit to the lawyers engaged in the affair.

The Century Road club of this city will make its annual century run on the HUh of September, this having l»een decided upon at a meeting held this week. The course will lie to Cayuga and return, and a large number of riders will take part in it. J. Fred Probst, and Capt, Charles Wittig, of the Wabash Cycling club will act as pacemakers. A souvenir will be furnished to every person finishing the run. The party w',11 start from the Filbeck house at six o'clock, and fourteen hours will lie the time limit for the hundred miles. On the up trip no rider will be allowed to pans the pacemakers, but on the return trip it will be a go-as you-please affair.

R. P. O'Neal, of Rich Hill. Mo., who created quite a sensation by his talk at the convention of labor leaders at St. Louis this week, and who was quoted freely in the press dispatches, is a former resident of this city, where he was familiarly known as Pat among the labor union and newspaper men. Pat was quit*a versatile character. As his name would indicate, he was an Irishman, had little or no schooling, but was gifted with a great deal more than the average intelligence. He had traveled all over the world a a sailor, and spent several years in the Orient, where he made a study of the religion and superstitions of the people, and almost, if not quite, embraced Buddhism. He also become infatuated with the study of arrhivology. and while here explored a number of supposed Indian mounds for relics. He spoke several different languages. In he was engaged as a coal miner at Fontanel, spending most of his idle time in this city, and on tabor Day of that year he read an original poem at

the picnic at the fair, ground*., afterwards did considerable special work for the Daily News, and an occasional artiole for The Mail, which was of more than ordinary merit. About five years ago he married a lady, of Marshall, said to be possessed of considerable wealth, and the last heard of him by his friends he was in the cigar business in Kansas City. He assisted materially in the organization of the Central Labor union here in 1890.

Col. T. J. Griffith, of the Seventh Regiment, Indiana Brigade, Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, whose term expires the present month, on account of a business enterprise that will require his constant attention, has declined to be a candidate for re-election, and a meeting of the commissioned oflSciers of the panies companies comprising the regiment has been called meet in this city next Friday afternoon, to elect a colonel for the ensuing term of four years. It is expected there will be a full attendance of the officers of the regiment, as great interest in the order is being manifested among Indiana Pythians because of the meeting of the Supreme lodge at Indianapolis next year. Col. Daniel Fasig, of this city, is mentioned prominently as a candidate for the position. The other candidate is Major Cahill, of Spencer.

Rev. C. Fenwick Reed, pastor of Grace M. E. Tabernacle, has announced that he will resign his pastorate here, and enter upon an active career as an evangelist. He is the evangelist who created a sensation in Shelbyville, this state, last year by announcing that it was "within a half mile of hell." He denied having used the expression named, but he got the credit for it throughout the country.

James M. Dishon, who goes forth in baste with bills and paste, etc., is about the squarest bill poster on the face of the earth, and it is gratifying to learn that the management of the new opera house will continue him as the "official" bill poster for that establishment. In other cities where the managers are interested in amusement enterprises they usually do their own bill posting, but they found the "King of Ginger Flat," as he has been nicknamed by Dick Moore, so well equipped for the business, and with a such a reputation for square dealing, that they decided to close with him.

The Ringgold band, which holds together in the face o^ numerous discouragements and a great falling off in their business by the destruction of the opera house, will endeavor to make some money out of a band tournament at the fair grounds some Sunday this month. They are already assured of the presence here of ten bands, and the railroads have promised to run cheap excursions into the city on that day. At a similar affair in Decatur recently the band there cleared nearly two thousand dollars.

The petit jury for the September term of the Vigo Superior court has been drawn as follows: Joseph Gilbert, Harrison George B. Hartman, Nevins Addison Pugh. Honey Creek Thomas Hook, Linton Cal Fulmer, Fayette Sam'l Coltfain, Lost Creek George A. Payne, Otter Creek Geo. Neff, Prairieton H. M. Singhause, Riley and Henry Price, James Burns and Mat Mahuran, city.

Terre Haute's distillery plants are famous the world over, and Terre Haute beer is becoming equally well known. It is said that it is to become

fstill

more

famous, as Messrs. Louis and Eugene Duenweg are contemplating the organization of a company to erect another immense brewery here. There is nothing definite as yet in the plans, but it is said that some large capitalists will become interested in the enterprise if consummated.

The annual conference of the A. M. E. church has been in session at Allen Chapel on south Third street this week, and many distinguished divines of that church have been in attendance. The programme of exercises has been of more than ordinary intesest, and the meetings have been largely attended. Among the most prominent members in attendance is Bishop B. W. Arnett, of Ohio, who has presided over the meetings. The conference will close on Monday.

Fred Savoree, a bartender, was arrested by the police last night for a brutal assault on Florence Hammond, a fourteen year old girl living on south First street. Savoree, who is a candidate for a position on the police force, is a big, burly man, weighing two hundred pounds, and his treatment of the little girl is said to have been outrageous.

The announcement from Columbus this morning that the miners' strike is in a fair way of settlement is received with a great deal of satisfaction by the public in general, and by the business men of this city in particular. Every man who has had dealings with the -uining regions in this vicinity has suffem.^severely as a result of the strike, and as soon as it is settled it is expected that every bradch of business will derive a direct benefit from it.

Archie Ferguson, one of the best known local bicycle riders, was suspended by the L. A. W. racing board this week, together with his trainer, Ed Sandison. The charges against Ferguson are that he entered the l^ebanv^ races recently under an assumed name, going Into the novice race among others, although he has an established reputation as a fast rider. The suspension is temporary pending investigation.

Temple Israel resumed services last evening, Rabbi Deinard having returned from his summer vacation. His subject was, "On the Banks of the Klondike." The music for the coming year, as during the past, will be furnished by the quartette consisting of Misses Jessie Purdue and Dora Hauck and Messrs. Dan and Gabe Davis.

It is a cold day when Hal Dronberger doesn't win an important race in some of the surrounding towns. This week he went to Pana. Ills., and captured the first prise in the mile and the half mile open races, as well as coming in second in the

SSilia

mile amateur. He will soon have enough diamonds, won in bicycle races, to act as advance agent for a comic opera star. In the races at the fair this week he also won the state championship for a mile, the race that was postponed from the recent L. A. W. meet. :s

Bicycle races are so popular nowadays that the managers of the Riley fair have decided to give two races on Wednesday, September 15th. There will be a two mile open and a five mile open, and the prizes offered will aggregate over 165 in value. Entries may be made with Geo. W. Krietenstein, at Fourth and Cherry streets, who has charge of the races for the fair association.

HARRISON PARK CASINO.

BALDWIN MELVILLE COMPANY. The attraction at the Casino to-morrow, Sunday, will be the Baldwin Melville company in two grand performances at popular 10, 20 and 30c prices, presenting two great comedy successes, in conjunction with the introduction of attractive vaudeville. The play for to-morrow, Sunday afternoon, will be Gillette's "All the Comforts of Home" and to-morrow night "Bulls and Bears," each production given with entire special scenery, etc. Matinee performance will begin at 2 o'clock.

FIELDS' MINSTREL8.

The "Court of Momus" is the vehicle used for the opening portion of the Al. G. Fields' Big White Minstrels. It utilizes the full strength of the mammoth company. Momus is the latest innovation for the time-honored middleman and is impersonated by the peerless conversatalist, Dan Quinlin, and he ably assists the sterling comedians A. G. Fields, Billy Van, Tommy Donnelly and Doc. Quigley. Among the other splendid morsels in this delectable menu of entertaining are Ollie Young, the marvelous club expert Eddie Fox with his violin "The School Boy Days," by Doc. Quigley, "March of the Romans," DeVillers Family of French pantomimists, and the undisputed greatest acrobatic act the world has ever seen, the famous Cornalla Family, seven in number, just engaged by Manager Fields at the largest salary ever paid a similar act. Seats for this mammoth eutertainment are now on sale at Buntin's Drugs Store., The prices range, 15, 25, 50 and 75 cents, which are less than this company charges in any other city.

PULSE OF NEW YORK.

The "Pulse of New York," the great sensational scenic play, will be seen at the Casino next Friday night, presented by one of the most complete companies entour and introducing all the novel mechanical effects, which have made this grand play the universal success it is. This big production will be here one night only and will certainly attract a great crowd.

A MILK WHITE FLAG.

Wherever "A Milk White Flag" has been repeated it has only tended to whet all the keener the appetite of lovers of Mr. Hoyt's fun making ability, as strikingly displayed in this comedy. It will be seen at the Casino, Sunday night, only, September 12th. There are forty people in the company and they are all actively employed in the unfolding of the story, and this piece has a story abounding in fun and general merriment. Sale of seats will begin at Buntin's Thursday.

The Vigo County^Fair. For the first time in many years the Vigo Agricultural Society has given a fair that shows a balance in its favor, although an exact estimate of the profits cannot be made at this writing. The idea of giving a night fair, together with the special features engaged for the day show, and the sale of privileges, has profited the society, and it will be able to show a balance on the right side of the ledger as the result of the fair this week.

The exhibit of farmers' products was very satisfactory when it is considered the disadvantages which worked against the farmers in this immediate vicinity on account of the dry weather.

The bicycle races, as was expected, drew the largest Wednesday crowd that has ever been seen on the fair grounds. Thursday the attendance was also very large, and at the evening displays on Wednesday and Thursday large crowds were attracted. In addition to a concert by the Ringgold band on the evenings named, Co. B. gave an exhibition drill on Wednesday evening and Terre Haute Division Uniform Rank gave a drill on Thursday evening. Both were of high order of merit and greatly pleased the crowds that witnessed the exhibition.

W. C. C. Picnic.

The Wabash Cycling Club will picnic at Forest Park Sunday, Sept 5th, leaving club rooms at 7:90. Every club member is invited. Bring your baskets to the club room before 7:90.

Vigo County Teachers' Institute.
