A HANDSOME GOLD, WATCH.

THE NEWS ONCE MORE LEAOR THE PBOCKMIIOM.

The Paitiia Mirror of tho Fntnre— We Shnr* Profit* With Cm. ployen—Only Seventy-Five

Snboerlbers Heeded.

To every boy end girl in the city, and also in the surrounding towns, THE NEWS wishes to present a beautiful souvenir in the shape of a lady's gold watch. THE NKWS at all times has shown a disposition to pay in a handsome manner all its employes. It was the first and only newspaper in Terre Haute that adopted the plan of sharing with its carrier boys the profits of each route. This has resulted in the routes of THE NEWS commanding a premium of $5 to $10 each. Generous treatment to all has won THE NEWS an army of friends. While our circulation in the city is much larger than any other paper, we still think there is room to grow, and will not be content until every name in the city directory is on our list To attain this end we make an...offer to every boy and girl in the citv.

A LADY'S GOI^J WATCH, stem wind and set, Dueber case, Elgin movement, will be given to each aha every one who will take the trouble to obtain among his or her friends 75 names of persons who will agree to take and pay for THE NEWS for one month. Note the several things to be remembered: 1. A gold watch, as above described, will be given to every one getting THE NEWS 75 subscribers for one month. 2. You will have no money to collect. Subscriptions will be collected weekly or monthly by the regular carrier. 3. You must send in the names as rapidly as you can obtain them. TIIE NEWS will be delivered promptly thereafter. When you have sent us 75 names the watch will be presented. 4. Names will be credited but once and no one having been on our books since Ssptember 1,1890, will be accepted as a new subscriber. 5. If your friends say they are taking another paper, ask them for the sake of aiding you in getting this elegant present, to take THE NEWS also for one month at a cost of only 40 cents and compare the contents and style for future use. If any cannot afford to add anew daily paper to their list, ask them to drop for one month the paper they are now taking and aid you by taking THE NEWS for one month instead. 6. Write names and addresses very plainly so there can be no confusion or misunderstanding. Wherever possible state not only the STREET and NUMBER but BETWEEN WJIAT STREETS as well. This will aid our carrier very materially in locating the house. 7. NEWS employes are barred. This is a free for all contest to boys and girls under 18 years of age, not employed by us. 8. Remember that while we give yon a |f25 watch, each of our carriers is to be benefited also, as they will obtain their profit on each subscriber. 9^ If you have any questions to ask about our offer, do not hesitate to write to BUSINESS MANAGER of NEWS.

Evil Island Anticosti.

The island of Anticosti has always held an evil reputation tb mariners lying close to the course of navigation to the mouth of the St Lawrence. Its long, low shores were the scene of many disastrous wrecks, and the*sufferings of sailors who succeeded in gaining the land were grievous and terrible from the absence of water and means-of subsistence. Since it has been properly, lighted its dangers have been greatly diminished but from the fact of its desolate and lonely position and its absence of population the island has long been the resort of characters who have found there a refuge from justice.

It is evident that of late years this criminal population must have been largely increased, for we now hear that the wreck of the Idaho has been taken possession of by a gang of pirates, upward of 100 strong, who have set at defiance the Canadian cruiser Wakeham, and that it had been necessary to send her majesty's steamship Comus from Halifax to cope with them. It may be hoped that her operations will result in the complete breaking up of this gang of desperadoes, who constitute a serious danger to the crews of vessels that may be cast upon the coast.—London Standard.

A Very EeitUlittte Lord.

Lord Northampton'is a vastly fortunatq personage. In *1679 his eldest son, the late Lord Com^ton, borrowed £10,000 from the National Life Assurance society on the security 6f his reversionary interest in an entailed estate, but if he died before his father (as happened) of course the security'ftvas worthless. The society proceeded to insure Lord Compton's life for £34,000, the understanding being that it was to pay the premiums and add thenS'to the amount of the loan, and tho policy was to be transferred to him if ever he paid off the debt He died three years ago, by which time his debt to the society' had risen to £14.000. Tho society therefore congratulated itself upon having made, a profit of nearly £20.000: but, lo and behold, Lord Northampton as executor of his deceased son demanded the balance of £34,000, and in spite of the agreement between tho society and Lord Compton his claim has been sustained by the court of appeal. The result is highly satisfactory for Lord Northampton, who gets nearly £20,000 from 9 fund which neither he nor his son nor any of his family paid a penny to creato.—London Truth.

NEW COLLEGE ROOMS. The gradual growth in attendance and popularity of the Terre Haute Commerc:al College has made it necessary from time to time to take in new rooms in order to accommodate the great number of students and it now becomes necessary to have more room.

New rooms will be added to what was already the largest Commercial College of the country. This will enable me to add a practical English department. It is intended that the pupil's knowledge of the topics embraced in this course of study shall not rest on the abilitv to explain theories, but that they shall secure such familiarity with them and become so expert in their application that when the actual test comes their knowledge may be applied instantly and with certainty that the application is correct

The topics selected are mental arithmetic, commercial arithmetic, rapid arithmetical calculate, spelling, practical English grammer, business correspondence, geography, civil government, United States history and business writing.

Free to students taking a business course. Personal instructions given by which we are enabled to admit students of any grado of education and at a very low rate of tuition.
