CO.,

OF LOCAL INTEREST.

Terre Haute had a soldier in the gallant Sixteenth regiment of regulars, which distinguished itself by its charge up the slope at San Juan during the recent fighting in front of Santiago. The member is Will S. Dennis, a son of Win. P. Dennis, the wellknown aeronaut, and he enlisted at Columbus, 0., shortly after war was declared. The father has been unable to learn whether or not the boy was included in the list of killed or wounded, the complete official announcement of casualties not having been made. The father has just returned from Tampa, Fla., where he was engaged in the balloon department of the signal service. The balloons located there are of French manufacture, the shape of a cucumber, but, Dennis claims, are too heavy and cumbersome to be made of practical service, and for this reason he returned home, although subject to call. He enlisted in New York, Department of the East. The balloons now being used for observation purposes in Cuba are not kof the French pattern, but were manu 'factured in Quincy, 111.

Andrew Burgert, for many years with Watson's Sons, has engaged in business I for himself and will open a plumbing esItablishment on Ohio street near Fifth the first of the week.

In the afternoon there wen cleraoc*. horse race*, a cake walk.

attractive display of fire works was given. The price of admission was but ten cents, and the popularity of low-priced attractions was demonstrated. The credit for the success of the affair belongs to Secretary Wm. H. Duncan of the fair association, who with Treasurer Geo. A. Schaal, conceived and carried it out. As a result the fair association will clear in the neighborhood of two thousand dollars.

Robert L. Hayman, formerly manager of the opera house, is writing some interesting letters to the Mail readers from Camp Alger, Ya. Mr. Hayman wields a ready pen. is observing, and can tell of men and events in a most interesting manner. If the One Hundred Fifty-ninth is sent to the front, as apoears probable now, readers of The Mail are promised a most graphic description of the brave deeds now being, and to be, performed in Cuba. Mr. Hayman is at present a corporal in Co. B, as well as being company clerk, and his time is kept pretty well occupied. He has had considerable military experience, having been an active member of the old McKeen Rifles in their palmy days, and his knowledge and skill are likely to put him in line of promotion for more responsible duties. His numerous friends here would be glad to hear of his promotion.

The entertainment on the lawn of St. Anthony's hospital on Wednesday and Thursday evenings was very successful, and netted a large sup for that worthy institution.

AMUSEMENTS.

What the Management of the Casino Have to Offer Their Patrons Next Week.

It is seldom that a manager is fortunate enough to secure just what he wants. This week Manager Monk has overdone all previous efforts and will offer to his patrons a highly pleasing bill.

He has secured Lotta Gladstone, who is a commediene and character artist of marvelous versatility and talent and of that peculiar and unique order which is difficult to describe, possessing a wonderful magnetic and pleasing stage presence, a thorough appreciation of humor, and a command of dialect and mimcry truly marvelous. Technically, she is known as the comedienne, and her impersonations can but form a leading part of any bill. Miss Gladstone is one of the comparatively few lady artists who can readily move her lady auditors to laughter. Her work must not be confounded with what are ordinarily termed readers, elocutionists, etc., for while possessing all the refinement associated with these classes, it is entirely different in its nature. She assumes a width of range and is particularly happy in her rendition of dialect songs and sketch. She has no parallel, consequently can have no equal. She is possibly better known through the western and southern states for many years as Lotta Waters, of the firm of Lou and Lottie Waters, whose entertainments were always an enjoyment to the managers and public in those cities in this country, where she appeared, and in New Zealand, and Tasmania. She is dainty, magnetic and winsome, and sings sweetly and dances gracefully. She is as perfect in monologue and stump speech as any man, and for a woman possesses the rare faculty of pleasing women. She is the personification of versatility. She will present here her latest success entitled, "A Country Girl," which made such a hit in the larger cities. She was the particular star of the bill at the opening of the Masouic Temple Roof Garden in Chicago this season also a headliner at the new Columbia Theater in St. Louis the week of May 8th, this season. She is certainly one of the greatest attractions ever brought to our city.

Chappelle Sisters, last season's favorites, who are so well-known to Terre Haute audiences that they need no introduction, will also be one of the features of next week's hill.

Direct from her eastern success at Keith's New Union Square Theater, Proctor's Pleasure Palace, and Proctor's Twentythird street theater in New York, Hopkin's theaters in Chicago and St. Louis, comes dainty little Dolly Theobald, assisted by Mr. Howard Powers, in their original creation, "A Girl From Kentucky." a spicy little sketch full of bright, sparkling comedy, dances, songs, etc. one of the latest recrdits to vaudeville. They were formerly with Hoyt & McKee, and the original "1403'' company.

Miss Louise Kerlin, who claims Terre Haute as her old home, will be seen here for the first time professionally. Miss Kerlin has a rich voice and is a character delineator of no mean ability. Her great forte seems to be in singing "coon" songs. She has recently made a big hit in Columbus. Akron, Toledo, Cleveland and other houses In the eastern part of the circuit.

Nelsonla has been constantly before the public since 185*0 and has always been prominently placed. He is known in nearly every civilised country and especially In the Western hemisphere. He is the beau-Ideal of jugglers, and Is a master of intricate manipulations. He is exceedingly graceful, and exceedingly talkcteating.

Next comes Jos, F. Hortie. the German warbler, in the latest song success entitled "Little Baby." in which he has made a big hit in the east. He also sings a patriotic song entitled, "The Destruction of the Maine."

This large and well selected bill of entertainers will certainly do a big business nest week. The business during the past week has been very good. The regular Sunday evening concert by the Ringgold band will be given from 90 to 8:30. Prices still remain the same. Go out to the Casino If yon wish to enjoy yourself.

M1and

R. STAFF, can you tell us how brewers distillers make their yeast? Yes, I can give you an idea how it is made, although it is considered a great secret amongst most yeast makers, as on the qnaiity of the yeast depends the yield of spirits per bushel of grain.

It is composed primarily of hops and different grades of barley and oat malt. In the first place they hare to make their stock yeast, and then they make larger quantities of yeast with a certain amount of stock yeast added to produce the proper fermentation of this yeast they add the proper quantity to their mash and they allow the whole mass to ferment for three or four days before It is sent to the stills.

Brewers' yeast, of course, is made under a different formula. Of coarse all these processes require a certain amount of skill and judgment, which would require a very long article to describe In full still there are plenty of men nowadays who are fully up to the requirements of the trade.
