B. T. BeBann, who had to resign his place as a member of the county board of review to accept, and W. T. Gleeson, the [attorney, who was a law student in the office of Judge Piety, have been appointed to positions in the revenue service under
Judge Henry. Their places pay $1,200 a byear, with $500 a year added for expenses [when out of the city. Mr. Gleeson was appointed by Judge Piety as assignee of Frank Feidler, to succeed E. H.
Redmond, and will have to resign from that place. The successors to DeBaun and Gleeson have not yet been appointed.
The first death in Co. B. was that of Charles Caton, which took place at Camp Altter last Saturday. His parents, Mr. ^•And Mrs. George W. Caton, knew nothing of his serious illness, and they were greatly shocked to receive a telegram announcing his death. The body was brought home on Monday, and the funeral took place on Tuesday. The Uniform Rank,
Knights of Pythias, Chieftain's League, Select Knights, Wabash Cycling Club, G. A. R. and sons of veterans turned out and made a most imposing demonstration. Young Caton studied law in Congressman Faris's office, and was ready to be admitted to the bar when war was declared. He enlisted the day before Co. B. left for Indianapolis.
Mrs. W. O. Elliott died at St. Anthony's hospital yesterday morning, as a result of an operation for the removal of a cancerous tumor. She was the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Graham, and the wife of W. O. Elliott, the well known abstractor. She was highly esteemed by a large circle of friends, who sympathize with the family in their misfortune.
The Tribune tells of some interesting co-incidences that were noted in connection with the sad death and burial of Private Charles Caton this week. Lawrence Burgett, the councilman, who officiated in the last sad rites as a representative of Morton Post, G. A. R., also assisted in August, 1861, at the burial of Vigo's first victim of the civil war—a young man by the name of George Boyd. Boyd was a blacksmith, employed by Woodmansee, the carriage manufacturer, at the northwest corner of First and Main. He was apparently the stoutest of all the troops who had goue from here, but in marching over the Cumberland Mountains, with Co. D, of the 11th Indiana, lu» was seized with typhoid

fever, which resulted in hemmorhages of the nose. He was sent home and died shortly after his arrival. He was buried with military honors, and among the soldiers who marched to his last resting place was Mr. Burgett. Joe McChesney and David St. John. These three also helped to lay away oar first fallen hero of the Spanish war. Another remarkable coincidence is the fact that Isaac Ball, the veteran undertaker in charge of the Caton funeral on Thursday last, also officiated in a similar capacity at the Boyd obsequies, thirty-seven years sgo
Jacob White, the well-known traveling man, was granted a divorce from Isadore White, Friday, on the ground of abandon ment. They were married in 1887 and separated in 1885. The custody of Effie White, aged 13, was awarded to defendant, and plaintiff was ordered to pay $12 per month for her support.
The members of. Terre Haute Chapter, No. 48, Eastern Star, will give a reception next Tuesday night for the members of the order in this and surrounding counties. Among tte chapters that will be represented will be Sullivan, Prairieton Farmersburg, Carlisle, New Goshen and Riley. An interesting programme of exercises has been arranged and the entertainment will be followed by a banquet.
Miss Mayme Nugent, a popular clerk at Kleeman's, died on Wednesday, after long illness with consumption.
The Indiana Supreme court yesterday affirmed the validity of the act of 1897 which extends the term of township trustees and assessors one year, or to the year 1900. This law was introduced by Senator Jacob D. Early, of this city, and his knowledge of the bill and his research for decisions upholding the validity of similar laws was of great benefit to the counsel for the trustees and assessors.
J. T. Walker has resigned as deputy prosecutor, and during the remainder of his term Prosecutor Tichenor will attend to the police court part of the work, heretofore looked after by Mr. Walker. The latter made a competent official, and had the confidence of his principal, as well as the police force, with whom he was intimately associated in his work.
Hugh Burns, an old resident of this city, died at his home on south Second street, Tuesday, after a lingering illness. He had been identified with the work of the Total Abstinence society for over a quarter of a century, and his funeral on Thursday was conducted under the auspices of that society.
The people of this city were treated to a genuine boat race Thursday evening, between the Falcon and the Owensboro, the former a pleasure steamer owned by a number of Ten*e Haute people and the latter a boat running in the trade between this city and Yincennes. The race was for $100 a side, and the course was from the Walnut street wharf to Nine Mile Island and return. The Falcon won the race hands down, reaching the city sometime in advance of her competitor. The race has excited considerable interest in such matters, and it is likely there will be a number of similar affairs during the boating season.
Heubel & Wagner, who have conducted a saloon at the ^corner of Thirteenth and Tippecanoe street for the past year, have sold their business to ex-Fire Chief Theodore Goodmau, who took charge at noon to-day
The largest class ever graduated from the State Normal School was that of this week, although a number of the 110 graduates will not actually finish their full course until the close of the summer school in August. The address at the commencement exercises was delivered by Professor Jenkins Lloyd Jones, of Chicago.

TO WEAR IN THE SURF.
Soaw Xonttta la the Way of Salta aad Wrap*.
On such days as we are now having one's mind runs toward invigorating salt eea baths, and fancy pictures the delicious sensation of battling with the surf as the foamy tops to the oool green wares roll in.
I think nothing in nature, always excepting a dear little baby, so beautiful as that deep, translucent green under the big wave as it curls up ready to rinnh on the sand. There is such a depth to the green and such a dazzling whiteness above it It is no wonder that the people whose incomes will permit hie them away to the shore as soon as the days grow warm. The scare of possible bombardment for a time threatened to interfere with the number of visitors to Narragansett, Bar Harbor, Long Branch and Newport, and so less attention was given to bathing outfits, while mountain climbing suits and Saratoga flufferies and fiimseries were nearly all that one saw. Of course, too, yachting gowns were not to be thought of, but now nearly all the seaside resorts are filling up, and bathing costumes are in demand.
These are pretty suits. One style has a pair of bloomers with bands and ruffles at the bottom. These are sewed fo a snug underwaist. Over these is worn a tunic, with the skirt very short, reaching scarcely to the knees. These tunics have first a yoke, to which the rest is plaited closely. A belt of some contrasting color is sewed around over the gathers, which are allowed to fall naturally from the yoke. The whole garment- is buttoned down the front. A band of material in contrasting color is sewed around the bottom and neatly braided in black soutache. There is a wide sailor collar, sometimes lashed and braided, and this, with the short puffed sleeves, makes up the suit.
The most of the bathing suits are now made of serge, silk warp wool and mohair. These do not sag or hinder the wearer's free movements. The colors best liked are blue, deep red and gray, with white facings. There are some pretty naps made in jockey shape of oiled silk, with the crowns made large and loose enough for the wearer to fasten her hair inside. There are other little gypsy bonnets made of the oiled silk, with the brims slightly stiffened. These tie under the chin.
The dress reform movement is recognized by some suits made all in one piece. There are loose pantaloons, or perhaps one should

a divided skirt,
and this is loose and quite long. The upper part is in form of a low necked waist without sleeves. The neck is rounded, but has a square effect by the ruffle of blue and white embroidery sewed to it.
One of this design was made of blue and white figured surah. Another was of white mohair brilliantine, with trimming of blue. Gray is apt to change color and take ou a pinkish hue in streaks, but it is seen in many bathing suits.
The bathing wraps or cloaks are made of cotton cloth where the foundation is

one color and the raised design in Turkish loops is another. These are long and plaited in at the neck, besides being cat with a flare. They are hemmed and have a triple stitching around the hem, which makes them stand out well around the bottom. Pink and cream, blue and white and gray witU sage green are all among the colors. They are queer enough to be pretty.
A few very "tony" ladies affect silk wraps to come out with—out of the bathhouse and out of the water—but the majority, secure in their good looks, prefer to run the gantlet of eyes olad in their swimming costume.
Black stockings and low canvas'shoes are de rigueur, and these should be fastened securely or some rough wave may strip them off like nothing. I've seen that dor iL There are stockings for sale for such ladies as are too slenderly built to venture out in a bathing costume. These are woven sometimes throe inches thick toward the top and are just such as are worn by the ballet girls. I always wondered at their uniform shapeliness until Mrs. Dazian explained it by showing me piles on piles of "improved tights" woven with fleece on the underside to fill any deficiencies. She told me that not 15 per cent of the lovely figures seen in the grand marches oould dispense with some sort of improvement.
It is the same way with many of the lovely girls at the seashore. If one thinks rightly, it is well that they should wear them otherwise the marine picture would be lacking in grace and beauty. Isn't it so?
Far children of all ages the bathing I
suit shown is a very simple combinaI tion, the waist and trousers sewed together. A very few are made with I skirts. I I may, en passant, say that fashion 1 might with great advantage to the cause I of humanity devise some better looking 1 bathing suits for men. They look fairly well onshore in their store clothes but, I shades of

The Mistake at Tampa* It is charged that when water was plentiful at other Florida ports the troops were massed at Tampa where the government has had to pay two cents a gallon for fresh water. It was cheaper to pay for good water than 9t have a lot of sick soldiers on hand. It is better to pay water rates for filtered water in Terre Haute than to do without it. Commencing at (5 a year for a six-room house for water is not high for the labor saving and convenience. The Water Work Company is making fair rates for water and extra-low for sprinklers.

ANNOUNCEMENTS. ROCLAMATION.
Whereas our national bollday of 1898 calls for more than the usual rejoicing Incident to the occasion, in that as a people we are blessed with abundant crops a trade balance of it ore than six hundred million dollars in our favor In our commerce with the other nations of the world during the last year that In our just war for the liberation of an oppressed people and tho extension of free government our artny and navy are victorious on land and sea, and that we are once more a united people in all that the term implies.
Therefore, the occasion for celebration and rejoicing being a fitting one, I would recommend that the people of Terro Haute join in a general and appropriate observance of the Fourth of July by closing all places of business for at least a portion of the day, by decorating with the stars and stripes and national colors their homes, offices, stores and public buildings, thereby drawing closer the bonds of union and arousing the patriotic ardor of all our citizens and by a generai demonstration of patriotism in which all can participate.
Given under my hand and the seal of the city of Terre Haute, lnd., this tho 2d day of July, 1898. FRED A. ROSS, Mayor.
