OF LOCAL INTEKEST.

It was reported this week that Raymond Durham, a member of one of the leading families of Prairieton township, wtua victim of the smallpox, bat an investigation showed that there was nothing of the kind. His physician says he is afflicted with a blood disease of a trifling kind, but nothing like the smallpox.

An attempt is to be made by local base ball men to break into the Inter-State league the coming season. Denny Long, who bad the club here in 1895, thinks there is a good chance for Terre Haute to secure membership in that strong organization, which made money the past year. He says the coming season is to be a good one for minor league teams.

The drougth that has prevailed in this section since last July was broken last Sunday and there has been several good rains since then. It is feared, however, that the rain came too late to do much good to the wheat. Farmers throughout the county say that there will be scarcely one-fourth of a crop of wheat as a result of the long dry spell.

Acting ou the recommendation of Professor Cunningham, the school board Monday began a new rule regarding the use of books from the public library. Hereafter each patron will be allowed to take two books at a time, provided that only one is fiction. It is thought that a rule of this kind will increase the use of books in the iiq.e of history, science, the arts, philosophy and religion.

George Hunt, the florist, carried off six premiums for roses at the flower show at Indianapolis this week.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

The Grand Opera House ttas opened auspiciously on Tuesday night with "The Isle of Champagne," a popular comic opera, presented by a strong company, headed by Richard Golden and Katharine Genualne. There was a large crowd in attendance and the beauties of the new place of amusemeut were thoroughly ap predated by the people. Col. W. E. Mc Lean, ou behalf of the directors of the Terre Haute House company, made an address—eloquent as are all of his utterances —in which he told of the gratitude due the company for undertaking such an important enterprise under existing circumstances. The address was well received and It Is certain that the theater-going public appreciates the enterprise which led to the erection of this beautiful theater, oue of the prettiest and most complete In the eatire country.

OI.K OI.KSON.

A very laughable production is that of Ole O'eson, to be given at the Grand tonight, with a capable company. The play has been given here before, but Is stronger now than ever before. In the present production the children play a prominentpart. The dainty scene where the little tots have their birthday ptrby, sing their cute rhymes, play their funny little games and dance the "Ring, Ring Rosey," is one that remains a picture on the memory for

NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD.

A fact often overlooked, or not always understood, is that women suffer as much from distressing kidney and bladder troubles as the men. The womb is situated back of and very close to the bladder, and for that reason any distress, disease or inconvenience manifested in the kidneys, back, bladder "or uolnary passages# is often, hy mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort.

The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided by settinst urine aside for twenty-four hours: a sediment or settling is evidence that your kidneys And bladder need doctoring. If you have pain or dull aching in the back, pass water too frequently, or scanty supply, with smarting or burning,—these are also convincing proofs of kidney trouble. If you have doctored withont benefit, try Dr. Kilmer's fewamfhRoot, the great kidney remedy. The mild and the extraordinary effect will surprise you. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures. If yon take a medicine you should take the best. At druggist* fifty cents and one dollar. Yon may have A sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail.

ever and gives a lesson in human nature that does more good than all the sermons from now to Christendom. hog ax's alley.

A return engagement for Gilmore and Leonard's "Hogan's Alley" company is the inevitable result of that play being performed once, so popular has it become. This play will appear at the Grand Opera House next Tuesday night and promises to be a great success. It was constructed especially for the fun-loving public. The desire to please runs through every act and the result is a series of the most irresistible laughter-making scenes. It includes lots of puns that snap back and forth and a number of songs that are up-to-date. The complications are gradually spun out. Mickey is a hero he leads the Alley to victory. Hogan hears good news and the band played on. All the actors are stars in their line, special attention being drawn to Campbell and Caulfield, Taylor and Karcher, Harry Crandall, Jos. J. Conlan, Johnnie Dugan, Margaret Neilson, Mammie Ward, Frank Rhoades, and the Misses Ethel Cope, May E. Cunard, Anna Driver, the Chappelle sisters, and Tiddlewinks, as Mickey Dugan, that inimitable ''Yellow Kid," is the life of the play. Seats now on sale at the box office.

CBE8TON CLARKE.

Creston Clarke, supported by Miss Adelaide Prince and an admirable company of finished artists, will present "The Last of His Race," a new four-act drama of the romantic type at the new Grand Opera House on Thursday night. Mr. Clarke's leading support will be Miss Adelaide Prince, a young actress of remarkable resources, whose stage instruc tion was secured in Augustiu Daly's stock company in New York and London. Miss Prince for five seasons was one of Mr. Daiy's moat prominent actresses and on several occasions she was called on to appear in Miss Ada Rehan's roles, which she did with gratifying success. The sale of seats for "The Last of His Race" will open at the theater box office on Monday morning.

SECRET SERVICE.

One of the best attractions that will be here this winter is Secret Service, William Gillette's war drama, which is to be given next Friday night. It is the best thiug that Gillette has ever written, and has made a wonderful hit not only in this country, but in England and France, where it has been given. It is the most fascinating play of the season, and should draw a large crowd.

KOTE8.

"My Friend From India," the farce that was so warmly praised last winter, and "What Happened to Jones," a piece of similar merit, are both the work of American playwrights that hark back to no French or German original. ..

George H. Broadhurst, the author of What Happened to Jones" and "The Wrong Mr. Wright," is at work on a new comedy. The scenes will be laid in about San Diego, Cal. Mr. Broadhurst, accom panied by his wife, leaves for California in a couple of weeks to study the scenery and incidents of fchat section.

There was. some difficulty between Manager Barhydt and the Ringgold orchestra, which-resulted in the Ringgold not appearing on the opening night. The trouble was that the management de clined to sign the season's contract presented by the orchestra, and the latter refused to go on under any other circum stances. The difficulty has been adjusted satisfactorily, however, and the Ringgold will furnish the music for the season. It was a very sensible act on the part of the management, for there is no more popular organization in the city than the Ringgold. Without a theater for the last winter the orchestra was held together with the greatest difficulty, and now that we have one, it is gratifying to the theatergoing public that the Ringgold is to furnish the music. "I'm a good church member," says Llmuel Jucklin, In Stuart Rqbson's newest play, "The Juckllns," "and all that sort of thing. I believe the book from one end to ther other believe that the whale svrallowed Jonah, I don't care if its throat ain't bigger than a hoe handle believe that the vine growed up in one night and withered at mornin' believe that old Samson killed all them fellers with a jaw bone believe everything, as I tell you, from start to finish, kiver to kiver, but I'll be blamed if I can keep from flghtin' chickens to save my life. Not long ago my wife ups and kills Sam—a black beauty, with a pedigree as long as a plough line—an' fed him to a hungry preacher. And, sir, what do you think? While that man was chawin' of my chicken, he gave me a lecture on flghtin' roosters! Did you ever hear o' such ingratitude?"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness,, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed yon have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness Is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever, nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

We will give One Hundred Dollars for iv case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) ^nnot, be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure, bend for circulars, free.

MODEL UNDERTAKING

H. L. STEES & CO. WILL CONTINUE BUSINESS AT 29 NORTH FOURTH.

Many New Features, Including a Lady Assistant, Will Be Added Facilities For Prompt Work the

Best.

Mr. H. L. Stees, formerly a member of the now dissolved firm of Stees & Nisbet, will continue the undertaking establishment at 29 north Fourth street. H. L. Stee3 & Co., which is now the style of the firm, announce that many new and necessary features will be immediately added in an endeavor to make theirs the best business of its kind in the state.

Assistants to thefirm will be Mr. Arthur Gill is, who for many years was associated with the old firm, and Mr. George Quirmback, a man of experience in the undertaking business. Mrs- W. F. Sibley, graduate of a school of embalming, and who for two years has been attending all cases where there was a special request made for a woman assistant, will now attend for the firm all calls where there has occurred the death of a woman or child. Mr. Stees has by experience realized the necessity of a woman helper in the undertaking work, as it has been the custom heretofore, because of necessity, to call in friends to prepare the body of a woman or child for burial, only calling the undertaker when such preparations had been made. With a practical lady embalmer, the body can at once be placed in the hands of the undertaker.

The room in which the cabinets are displayed will be improved and remodeled and the stock now on hand very materially added to. Many of the carriages and hearses belonging to H. L. Stees & Co have been equipped with rubber tires Everything considered, the service they will be enabled to render will be second to none.

LITERARY NOTES.

There is unusual variety of exceptionally interesting material in the November Scribner's. The opening paper, the seventh on the "Conduct of Great Busi nesses," is by William Allen White, author of the famous article on "What the Matter with Kansas?" and the delightful stories of "Boyville." It deals with "The Business of a Wheat Farm" and is the first adequate account of the great bonanza farms of the West, whose,auuual product is such an important element in the rise and fall of wheat prices. Mr. White has studied them not only for the purpose of accurately describing them in terms of acres and bushels and dollars but with an eye also for their picturesque aud varied human aspects.

W. R. Leigh, the artist, who visited the region especially for the magazine, has made a number of graphic and spirited pictures that give a very clear impression of the lively scenes of harvesting time, the wide extent of territory covered, and the great number of machines, men, and horses employed during this busy season.
