OF LOCAL INTEREST.

Notable criminal cases set down for trial in the Circuit court this week are those of Sadie Crooksbank, for killing her husband, December 16th George Cottom and Mary B. Thompson, for attempting to kill their illegitimate child, December 22d Fred Savoree, for rape on Florence Hammond, December 15th,

The motion for a new trial in the case of John Higginbotham, convicted of assault on Etta May Paddock, will be argued next Thursday.

Judge Joshua Jump, who recently retired from the office of revenue collector, was presented with an elegantly bound set of Charles Dudley Warner's "Library of the World's Best Literature," by the deputies, clerks, gaugers and storekeepers under him, Monday night, the presentation taking place at his office in the Rose Dispensary building. The presentation speech was made by Angus B. Wills, one of the gaugers, and remarks were also made by Judge Henry, his successor, Hon. John E. Lamb, and others.

The local lodge of Elks will hold memorial services at the Grand Opera House on the afternoon of the first Sunday in December, the 5th. The usual ritualistic services will be rendered, and there will ba an-address by Samuell R. Hamill, who has been selected as the orator for the occasion. The services are to the memory of the deceased members of the lodge. Terre Haute lodge has lost but three members by death since it was instituted in 1802. These are Dr. Robert Van Valzah, who was the first exalted ruler, Charles W. Williams and Clarence Merritt.

A little life romance developed in this city this week, in the arrival from Germany of Mrs. Gerhard Gehrels and son, wife and son of the well-known agent of the Pabst Brewing Co. Mr. Gehrls went on to New York and met them. Years ago Mr. Gehrls was in business in his native town in Germany, and was quite wealthy. But he met with reverses, and lost his entire fortune. He then deoided, to tify his luck In this* country. That was seven years ago, and since that time he had not seen his wifo or child, who was an infant when he left him. Recently he sent for them, and they are now happily reunited and will go to housekeeping in this oity at once. _____

The abattoir seems to have been a very fortunate investment for those who put their money into it, despite the fact that the city had to advance the money to build it, or a portlou at least. Last year the company's business was such that at the annual meeting this week, a dividend of ten per cent, was declared.

The tool works made a shipment of a car load of its products this week that was billed to Johannesburg. Transvaal, South Africa.

Mrs. Mary Matherly, an inmate of the poor house, fell from a secoud story window at that institution last Sunday night, receiving injurlos that caused her death a few hours later. Deceased was highly connected in the neighborhood of Prairieton.

Anton Hulman won the hill-climbing contest of the Wabash Cycling club at Coal Creek hill last Sunday, duplicating his performance of last year. The official record of the contest is as follows: Anton Hulman, 1:04 4-5 William H. Meyer, 1:15 8-5 Elmer Pierce, 1:1? 4-5 Earl P. Hamilton, 1:19 3-5 Ed. Hulman, 1:50 8-5 Will Krietetistein. 1:51.

While the police are supposed to be called upon to enforce the ordinances of the city of Terre Haute, including that requiring riders and drivers to keep to the right, it seems rather funny that a mem-

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 ami very close to the bladder, and for that reason any distress, disease or inconvenience manifested in the kidneys, back, bladder or uninary passages is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort.

The error Is easily made and may be as easily avoided by setting urine aside for twenty-four hours a«ediment 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 yon have doctored without benefit, try Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot, the gnsat kidney remedy. The mild and the extraordinary effect will surprise you. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures. If you take a medicine you should take the best. At druggists fifty cents and one dollar. Yon may have a sample bottle Mid pamphlet, both sent free by mail. Mention Saturday Evening Mail, and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, N\ Y. The proprietor of this paper guarantee* the genuineness of this offer.

SsilBf

ber of the police force could receive serious Injuries while violating the latter ordinance. This was the fate that befell Patrolman Oliver Shaw, one of the best men on the force, last Sunday night. He was coming south on Eighth street, near Lafayette. feeling his way in the dense darkness that was then broadcast in the city, as a result of the light plant not being in working order, when he ran into another wheelman. The other rider, who later proved to be Hubert Kilbourne, was badly injured, and Sha had a couple of teeth knocked out. It is said that Mr. Kilbourne will sue the city for damages for the injuries he received.

It is true that one-half the world does not know what the other half is doing. & fourteen year old girl, Katie Piper, when brought to police headquarters one day this week for investigation, claimed that her mother used all efforts in her power to induce the child to lead a life of shame. The mother fainted when confronted with the evidence against her, and the child was turned over to the board of children's guardians. If there is any law for it, a mother like that should be sent to the penitentiary for life. It is claimed that the mother has already forced an older daughter to lead a life of shame.

The mills of the gods grind slow, but they grind exceeding fine. The results of the civil service examination held in this city in June last were just received this week by George W. Tipton, of the civil service commission. The successful applicants and their averages were as follows: For clerk—James Keating, 84.07 Elmer M. Deem, 81.97 James E. Dorsey, 83.90 E. P. Westfall, 81.37 O. D. Gosnell, 76.87 F. M. Buckingham, 76.20 Clifford R. Smith, 71.60. Of the ladies who took the examination the percentages were: Minnie A. Rose, 86.27 Lena E. Scheytt, 78.00 Catharine Denny, 64.37 Lola Dickerson, 71.10 Bertha F. Wolff, 70.63. For carrier —Ben E. Wimer, 79.87 Harry McFarland, 71.50.

*The High School football team has made a reputation for itself this season. On Saturday last it defeated the heretofore unbeaten Culver military academy team by the score of 4 to 0, and on Thanksgiving day it played a tie game with the Paris High School team, the score being 0 to 0 when time was sounded in the last half of the game. The'game with Culver last Saturday was especially interesting, and the home team made a great record for Itself, from the fact that it was the first time this season that the military boys had had a score made against them.

The annual election of the parishioners of St. Stephen's parish was held on Monday, and officers were elected as follows Senior warden, Dr. S. J. Young junior warden, L. B. Martin vestrymen, Wm. Mack, Joseph Strong, J. D. Bigelow, A. C. Ford, Dr. W. H. Baker, George E. Farrington and H. G. Sleight.

Bert Holland, the car works employe, who made the quadruple century record a few weeks ago, smashing all previous records, has won for himself the three century record, having made it in a road trial last Sunday and Monday. He maJe the last hundred miles in seven hours and forty minutes.

Mrs. Martha Cookerly, widow of the late ex-Mayor Grafton F. Cookerly was this week declared insane. She has recently been burning and otherwise destroying valuable papers, including her bank book. She imagined that her family physician had been giving her poison.

Anew portico for the Cherry street, Of gallery, entrance to the Grand was ordered this week, and the contract for its erection was let by Floyd & Stone, the architects, to Aug. Fromme, who made such a record in the erection of the main building.

Ernest P. Bickuell, one of the proprietors of the Daily Tribune, although he has never been located here, has recently been elected general superintendent of the associated charities of Chicago, aud will assume the duties of his new position on the 15th of December. He has for several years been secretary of the state board of charities of the state, a position that carried with it a salary of $2,500 a year. His new position will pay him a salary of 14,000 a year, with the promise of an increase if his management brings out all that it is thought it will.

There is a balance of $2,146.57 still due from the bondsmen of ex-City Treasurer FiUpatrick, and there has been talk of a suit ou the part of the city against the bondsmen to recover this amount. The oau*e of the trouble is that three of the bondsmen, by their representatives and heirs, have not paid their share of the defalcation, claiming that by the statute of limitation they are not liable, and the other bondsmen refuse to pay the share due from the others. It is likely that the matter will be settled without a resort to the courts.

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 you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken ont and this tube restored to its

normal condition, hearing will be destroyed

forever, nine cases ont of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an condition of the mucous surfaces.

We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's C*tarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

It is not given to many cities of this size to have such a model photographic establishment as the Modern, where George G. Holloway holds forth. Easy of access, handsomely equipped and furnished with all the possible accommodations for the comfort and convenience of its patrons, it has every facility for prompt and efficient work. The gallery is equipped with two skylights, and with Mr. Holloway and Walter Buckingham as the operators, there is no tedious delays for sittings, as is too often the case in other establishments. The character of the work produced at the Modern is best evidenced by the fact that Mr. Holloway has carried away substantial prizes at the meetings of the National Photographers' association, as well as at the meetings, of jth$ state organization. He is

Lost in the Organizing of Telephone Companies. *V* The press dispatches in referring to the closing of the three banks at English, Marengo and Leavenworth, state that "the triple failure is even worse than was at first supposed. It is now estimated that the syndicate that controlled the banks has sunk not less than $500,000 in various deals. A large amount of money was lost in the organizing of telephone companies, which were to furnish service to small towns in southern Indiana. Nine township trustees lose all the public money in their possession. Under the State la,w the stockholders are liable for. the full amount of their private estates, and the depositors are assured that they will receive something. Three-fourths of the families in this county have been affected by this failure, and hundreds of honest men can not pay their debts. The failure of the Haughey bank at Indianapolis or the crash of the other bank9 several years ago are not to be memtioned in the same list with this failure here. Conservative men say this is more than failure—it is a calamity."

The indications are that the stockholders in every bank in Indiana and Ohio suscf dabbling in the telephone craze will demand a rigid investigation regarding the value of the securities given.
