The annual reception of the Terre Haute Woman's club at the Rose Orphan Home, Tuesday night, was made notable by a finished address on art by Miss Harriet Hosmer, whose name is enrolled among those of the famous sculptors of the world. Nearly two hundred invited guests gathered on the beautiful night in the pleasant balls and parlors of the home A brilliant musical suite was rendered by Miss Alden, and Mrs. Alden introduced Miss Hosmer, as one of the world's famous women. Miss Hosmer wore a number of the orders bestowed upon her by great personages and her waist sparkled with jewels, prominent among which was a Maltese cross of a decoration given by the czar. It was a rare experience, to listen a speaker who could say "Browning paid to me," "Mr. Gladstone told me,"

Mitt jbo,

Ls I visited Cheyne Row and talked with lomas Carlyle," or could refer to the art-loving, unfortunate King Ludwig, of Bavaria, to Thorualdssen, Sir Frederick Leighton, and many a name made a household word by its fame, as intimate and personal friends. This took the hearer into a new and beautiful world. Miss Hosmer spoke of the sculptor's art in the present and future, of the difficulties which limit the sculptor in the present ungraceful costumes, and referred sarcastically to the "be-trousered obituaries" In modern bronze. She spoke of the prudery which condemns the nude in art and accepts the impure in motive, and vindicated the innocency of what pruriency would make evil Her criticism of much art-criticism was humorous and biting, as she described the slap-dash methods of the hasty and Ill-informed writer who essays to judge every field of art, when each field is too large for one to cover. Miss Hosmer also spoke of the beautiful in her art and touched upon the great masters and noble works which she has studied a lifetime, surrounded by the treasures of Italy. The reading was over an hour long, and of extreme interest. The guests lingered in sofeial mood until after eleven o'clock when the last cars came in. During the evening pineapple ices were served to the visitors.

An influential delegation of Terre Haute men went to Indianapolis on Wednesday. It was composed of Judge James E. Piety, Hon. George W. Faris, Judge Sidney B. Davis, Judge D. W.

Mount to accept another company from Vigo county and to make T. W. Harper a colonel. The governor said "no" to the first, emphatically, and to the second, dubiously, that he would rememNsr it.

Judge Joshua Jump is announced in another column as a candidate for the nomination for Superior judge before the Democratic convention. His superior qualifications for this important position mace him without question a formidable opponent in the race. He is one of the very best lawyers in the state, and would make a dignified and capable judge. While always a true and consistent Democrat, Judge Jump has never been offensively partisan, and should he secure the nomination would no doubt attract many votes from the opposite party. The canvas he is making for the nomination, like that he would make should he be the fortunate one before the convention, is dignified in every sense, and he is making many friends among those who recognize his eminent ability and appreciate the honor he would reflect upon the people should he be elevated to the bench.

The Terre Haute Trust Co. is gradually becoming known as a benefactor of the public, especially in the matter of guardianship of minors and insane people and the administration of estates. It saves many expense charges that seem necessary in the case of private persons. It makes a business of looking after such trusts, has its regular force of employes trained to the business and therefore can afford to do the work for much less expense than private people. These estates are absolutely safe in its hands. When these facts become known the people will certainly discontinue the practice that has resulted in much delay and great costs to the estates of descendants and minors. In the eastern states where trust companies are better known, it has, become the general rule to place all such trusts in the trust companies, where it is known they are safe, and will be administered promptly at small expense. Of course every one in selecting private persons to handle such trusts, thinks the selection he has made is a good one but the experience in Vigo county, as the records show, is that delay and great cost and expense is the result in many cases^

A Two Handled Hammer,

People who stood around looking st men clearing up the debris of a torn down building were interested in the manner of wielding a two handled hammer wbloh they saw in use there, and in the hammer itself, which was bigger than any one man oould have handled. Its two handles were Inserted in it like the spokes of a wheel in a bub, and they spread out like them. The handles were held each by a man, the two men standing side by side.

The big hammer was used herein breaking up stone so that it oould be handled. When the hammer had been let fall, two men standing by the stone lifted it and bore it back by tbe handles as two men might raise a ladder by bearing bsok against tbe side strips while two men held the foot of the ladder on the other side. Here the two men were eaoh holding a handle of tbe hammer.

When .by tbe united labor of all the big hammer had again been poised in tbe air, the men in front stood aside and it was again let fall upon the stone.—New York Sun.

Beapeatablllty Defined.

British respectability has been defined in a London polioe oourt by a prisoner oharged with begging, and the definition seems to have been aooepted by the magistrate, for he discharged her. She said: "I'm a respectable woman, a tailoress. Why, I make tronsers for Mr. Newton—Mr. Newton, the magistrate, I mean. If I'm respectable enough to make a magistrate's tronsers, I'm good enough for anything."
