MAYOR'S Cor KT.—A young man named Bobbins was up before tne Mayor this morning, charged with disorderly conduct, but was discharged for want of proof.

exchange says, trying to do business without advertising is like winking at a pretty girl through a pair of green goggles. You may know what you are doing, but nobody else does.

THE Bartine Combination gave another of their laughable and wonderful performances last evening at the Theatre Comique, to a full house, which bespeaks for Charly the success he merits.

PERSONAL,.—Patrick H. Shannon was elected Agent of State, by a joint convention of the Senate and House at Indianapolis yesterday over Mr. Thomas E. Slaughter, of Harrison, by a vote of 70 to 64.

THE Criminal Court convened yesterday afternoon pursuant to the forenoon adjournmen t,and the trial of Anna Boyle, charged with grand larceny was resumed which resulted in the accused being convicted and sentenced to the county jail for a term of two years.

BETTER NOT SAY IT.—We every day hear the expressions "It is cold as the devil!" "It ishotus tiicucvn devilish good fellow!" "He's a devilioh uivui. Mioir!" etc. What do they mean? If the expressions are all true, the devil must bo, "all things to all men." Wouldn't be it just as well to leave the devil out?

MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.—One of the most unaccountable things in human nature is the concern most people give themselves about the affairs of their neighbors and acquaintances. Out of a hundred persons, we will venture that nifiety give themselves more trouble about matters no way relating to them than they do about their own individual affairs.

NILSSON.—Mr.

Hosford, Secretary of

the Opera House Association, has received a communication from Director Strakosch asking the refusal of the Opera House for Thursday evening of the coming week. Mr. H. answered him to the effect that the house is disengaged on that evening and expects a definite answer to-day or to-morrow. At any rate, due notice will be given when the troupe will appear.

Messrs. Leake & Dickson have the Opera House engaged for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and the Russian Concert Troupe have it secured for Friday and Saturday eveuing. Therefore,

Nilsson comes on Thursday evening, it will be a week of amusements of which our citizens should justly feel proud, and one long to be remembered will: p^nsure.

ALL ABOUT GAS.—There is% a great deal of complaint of late as to the poor quality of gas that is being palmed off on the community and the enormous bills that are presented therefor. Some of our citizens threaten to cease using it in their dwellings entirely, and in lieu thereof use coal oil. We know of one man whose gas bill this last month is nearly double that of the month previous, and he cannot account for it, as he thinks his family has not used anymore than usual. Others again, complain that the streets are insufficiently lighted that the lamps need an application of soap and water. In some parts of the city it is almost impossible to find a street lamp, when lighted unless one has a lantern, to reveal its whereabouts. "Let there be light."

WEARING FINE CLOTHES.—A sensible writer discourses as follows Thousands of men and wonten to-day put the result of their labor upon their backs or their fingers in order that the world may see it. How often we hear wise old ladies remark "My gracious, how women do dress I can'tsee how they do it." Some people' do it by residiug on the top floor of a tenement house and living on the meanest fare. When they go out, it is much like the beautiful butterfly leaving the grubby cocoon. Dress must be had at the expense of the stomach. Young girls lead a life of shame for dress. The salesmen in our dry goods stores grow thin and pale, but they dress well.

Everything goes for dre«s and the man or woman that is dressed well is respected.

The above eriticism on dress applies with much force to the people of Terre Haute as well as the rest of the world.

The Coroner's inquest in the case of the recent railroad accident, commenced yesterday, before Coroner Andrews, upon the body of Walter Stafford. The first witness was ex-District Attorney Wm. J. Thorne, of Poughkeepsie, who testified as follows: "I was in the rear car of train and asleep first heard a crash, and then great confusion ensued, and then I got out and walked up outside of the car, on the river side. Tiic engine and oil car had passed my train before I went out part of that train was left on the bridge there were several tanks ot oil on it I saw nothing but flames they were in every direction everything seemed to be a sheet of fire, there were some cars on the bridge which had not fallen from the track the fire must have enveloped everything at once I directed a man I saw to uncouple the next car to him, which he did, when we shoved two cars back. All this occurred on the drawbridge. My impression is that four cars were destroyed, as I saw passengers getting out of the fourth car from the rear. The fire was very hot, and one would keep going from it the flames were shooting up fifiy or one huudred feet if there had been half a dozen cars piled up they could not have been seen.

It appeared from the looks of the crosstiles that the car ran off the track at

New

Hamburg Station the oil car was not on fire until struck by theJocomotive of the up train.

or allowance. In amoral point of view I feel convinced that the conspiracy charged in the plaintiffs complaint existed at the time of thdcommencement of the action. Plaintiffs counsel failed, however, to establish byilegal proofs the allegation of this .complaint. Fraud is the ground-work of plaintiff's suit fraud must be clearly jjroven. It will never be assumed. Let a finding accordingly be presented to me.

PHILADELPHIA, February 9.—An extensive series of forgeries committed in Tyrone, by one Reakirt, liave been unhearthed.

Rea kirt had been engaged in some private stock speculations, having large dealings in 'Reading, and he has balances in nearly all of the banks of that city,, which he had used to further his operations, but not sufficient to cover the amjoant of his forgeries. Reakirt was connected with the firm of John Reakirt & SOB, and Reakirt & Co., wholesale druggists, and his forgeries included those firms, as well as that of his father. The baaks concerned have kept the matter secret, in hopes of having the losses refunded.
