NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS.
All advertisements to get in the first edition of THE NHWS, which consists of 096 copies and reaches every town within a distance of forty miles, most be in by 11 a. m, ___
PHAISK of the W. C. T. U. convention comes with little grace from TUB NEWS' contemporaries. One is the open advocate cf the all-nitdit and Sunday saloon and refuses to insist upon the suppression of gambling. The other is subsidized by the liquor interests by receiving their patronage in the publication of their applications for license.
THE NEWS desires to call the attention of the Misinformed to the interviews with Terre Haute business men. They were not asked for their political opinions, simply for a statement of advances and whether or not they were the result of the McKinley tariff bill. The statements are from Democrats and Republicans and contain the plain, cold facts regarding the increase in the cost of articles under the new tariff measure. THE NEWS purposes to give a few illustrations of the condition of prices under the new tariff law so that the pablic may become better tnfortnad on the subject. Many have casually perused the measure which was passed by Congress yet did not consider the effect on prices. Many effects are manifesting themselves and the public should be informed of them.
SPKECHMAKIKG from persons of prominence is decidedly American. Persons of prominence are everywhere called upon to say something to the people. In foreign countries receptions consist principally of cheering and the people are satisfied simply with some siijn of recognition. But in America it is expected that whenever honor is shown to an illustrious son of the country it is his imperative duty to address those who have extendod courtesies to him. Especially is this true of the president. On his recent trip, President Harrison made many addresses, a short talk at almost every point where the train stopped. The speeches were happy and timely, They were in the proper tenor and only added to the already famous powers of the president as a public orator. Mr. Harrison acquitted himself well.
Tna Morning Misinformed attempts to prove by an advertisement that prices have not advanced by reason of the McKinley tariff bill. Tits NEWS begs leave to submit the advertisement of John Wauamaker, proprietor of a Philadelphia department store and postmaster general under President Benjamin Harrison. The advertisement reads
PitttAnsw*!*,, Tuesday, Sept. 80, 1«».—TinWare in advancing in co*t, and very soon the inanufact'ircn will nave tbetr way and you and vre will havtno t»y very much more.

These are only a few of the advertisements that have been appearing in papers here and elsewhere throughout the country. Prices have advanced and the weak and miserable attempt of the Misinforaied to make it appear that they have not, on account of the new tariff bill, is ridiculous. It is another illnstrAtidn of the extent to which the Misinformed will stoop to misrepresentation for political purposes. John W&namaker's (ad, says tinware has advanced, and John isoue of the pillars of the administration.

SeHlea la St. P»nl—Their FrlaciplM Espiaiaed. ST PAUL, October 15.—Delegates representing the independent political association of railroad employes are arriving here to attend a secret convention which is expected to open this afternoon, lite states to be represented are Illinois, Ohio, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North and South Dakota, Indiana and Nebraska. The objects for which the organization is striving are the Australian ballot, reservation of public lands to actual settler*, popular election of president and United States Senators, prohibition •f child labor and of alien or prison contract labor, uniform text iiooka in public schools, enforcement of the law against private detective and other armed tgencies, repeal of the co-employs act, appointment of railroad commissioners from the mercantile farmers' and employes' interests, and prohibition of Sunday labor. The association is particularly strong in Illinois, having a membership of 8,000 in Chicago alone, divided into twenty-six clubs.
An Kxtra SMaien Talked of. WASHIKOTOX, D. C., October 15.—With the return of the Prseident from his western trip, the rumors of an extra session of Congress are renewed. From a source which is generally regarded as high authority it is learned this morning that it is almost certain that the President will issue his proclamation convening a special session for either November 10th or 17th. It is known that a large majority of the Cabinet is in favor of tbiB course, mainly in order that the Senate may be afforded an opportunity of taking action on the federal election bill. Besides this measure the bankruptcy bill, the shipping bill, the labor bills, are all pending the Senate. The bill to relieve the Supreme court is still in the hands of the conf-rence committee loaded down with amendments. More importiant than all, however, is the apportionment bill, which redistributes the numbers of members for each state to agree with the results of the last census. This measure has simply been introduced and has not yet been even referred to a committee. It is thought that its consideration in the house alone will sccupy twenty-six weeks.
EM«nelpa1*n CeIobratl*n. RICHMOND, Va., October 15.—The colored people of this state are holding a celebration h*re to-day in commemoration of the issue of the proclamation of emancipation. To-morrow there will be a conference of delegates from nearly every county in Virginia, together with leading colored men from many other states for the purpose of making plans for an annual celebration by the colored race of America of this event in its history. It ia proposed to bring together relatives ana friends who wsre sold during the days of slavery and have never been able to get trace of each other since that time. It is also proposed to establish a national museum*of old costumes aud wearing apparel used in the days of slavery, together with spinning wheels, old cards that wsre used for carding cotton or wool and other relics.
A Meit Excellent Hove.
NEW YORK, October 15.—The grand lodge of the Independent order of Odd Fellows has instituted an innovation, which might be followed to advantage by secret societies throughout the country, in deciding upon the appointment of an official reporter for the purpose of furnisnine the press, morning and afternoon, with tho reports of the business transacted, for publication. The difficulty which is now experienced in securing information of business of public interest transacted by the supreme bodies of a majority of the secret orders ia well known, and it is thought that the step of tho Odd Fellows' grand lodge will furnish a useful bint that will be followed by other orders throughout the country.
Military Men Heetinc.
ST. Louie, October 15.—Prominent military men from all parts of the country are gathering at the Lindell hotel to-day, for the purpose of attending the annual meetings ot the commandery in chief of the military of the Loyal Legion. The sessions, which, as usual, will be conducted with the strictest secreev opened this afternoon. Ex-President Hayes, the commander in chief, will preside.
His Faith Failed.
•'I remember a negro the southern states some years ago," Said the old soldier as he rested his war worn frame in tt chair at tho Monongahela house. "He was am old man, and when tired sunning himself on a log in the laneway he was accustomed to retire to the shade and dote. Ha had a class of twenty or so little boys to whom he used to give Bible lessons, generally on Snnday afternoon. "It was his practice to give out on one Sund*y the lessons to bis prepared for tho next Hie old fellow was a little blind and a good bit deaf, and this fact inducted the young fellows to put op a joke on him.

ffeygffigte. Allriftoi«iMwt| CHAPTER VII. it nappened that that was the evening far the meeting of the Chautauquan circle to which Edith belonged. The girl had rather tired of gay society after fiie first two winters that followed her "coming out." She had danced quite well, she had received a good deal of attention, she had tasted that cup pretty thoroughly, and then, without being cynical at all about it, she thought she had drunk about as much of it as she wanted. On the other hand, some near friends of hers had engaged in the Chautauquan course of reading she was sitting with them one evening when some reading aloud went on, and found herself interested in the solid and practical work which they had engaged in. She thought rightly that she had time to make up some back work, had sent to Plaiufield to connect herself with the circle and had become one of the most diligent of the readers,
This accident determined her now in the choice of her adviser. She had meant today to make some afternoon visits. But the day was hot and the air sultry, and she made this an excuse for sending James with his carriage back to the stable. She would go to Vincent chapel in the evening. And to Vincent chapel she went. It was the last meeting of the circle before the summer recess.
She had been chosen secretary and recorder of the Gill circle at the meeting in April, and her record was carefully prepared. It was the year for English history, and they had set apart the subject—always interesting to young people —of Mary Stuart for their evening discussion. That happened which is apt to happen, that all the women were very hard on poor Mary, while all the men defended her. As there were more women than men the men had to stand well to their guns. "I understand the president very well," said Edith firmly. "I meant to do justice to his argument before. But it seems to me to mean this—that because this woman was pretty she is to be excused for being wicked, and that because she was a woman it is to be expected that she will act like a fooL"
They all laughed heartily at this, and the president hastened to say that this was not the center of his position that Mary certainly had been very badly educated, etc., etc., etc., and that Bothwell had, etc., etc., etc., and that John Knox had, etc., etc., etc., and so on, and so on, as may be imagined. "Still, I cannot see that this changes our opinion on the question whether she did right or wrong."
This was the unflinching reply of the stern Edith. "It shows why she did wrong, but it does not show that she did right—unless the president means that when a wortfan dresses her hair in a becoming way, and invents a new headdress, she may do as she chooses."
After this it may be imagined that the president and Edith were very good friends through the rest of that evening, and the reader will not be surprised that in the simple and admirable code of Tamworth and of that circle Edith asked him, as they ate their ice cream together, if he would do her the favor to walk home with her. She had not liked to fix a time for the carriage, she said. He gladly agreed to do so, as any young man in Tamworth would have been glad to do.
So soon as they were well in the street, away from light, Edith, who had studied out the whole conversation in advance, said to him: "I have a question of conscience on which I want the advice of a man—of a businessman. My father is away for six weeks. I find there is a mistake about my money, and I have overdrawn at the bank on my private account Now it happens that I have receivsd $100 by accident—I know not from whom. It is lying in my desk unused. Should you think I might use that, as if it were lent to me, and repay It when my father comes home?"
The president heard her through, waited a moment and then said: "I believe at law you might I doubt if yon could be sued for doing it But it is not a pice thing to do. If it had been you would not be in doubt yourself." "Thank you," said Edith. "You feel just as I do." But he did not let her go on. "You see," he said, "your unknown correspondent might appear to-morrow morning, and you would want to have hear money ready for her. You would do much better to borrow yourself at your bank or of some friend.** *1 have so many friends," said Edith, more bitterly than she meant, "that I cannot select, and I am afraid my father would be wretchedly annoyed if he knew I was in this scrape, though really it is from no fault of mine. I cannot well borrow at the bank without saying that he has been careless or making people think so. It gives a certain publicity to the mistake he made when he thought that for six weeks I could—paddle my own canoe," "I do not think there is such publicity as you fear. You said he good naturedly, "the bank people would be only too glad to lend your father's daughter anything. It can be most easily ranged. How much do you want?" "Oh, I want as much as $350. Theue ant all the subscriptions pa likes me to
The young man laughed very lightly, aaalm tlraught "Pardon me,* he said* "From your tame I thought you were going to say two hundred and fifty thousand. I wish, JGas Edith, you would let me lend it te you myself. You have been kind enough to ask lay advice. WQl you be good enough to take itST

"I hope you are not offended, said he, somewhat proudly. You seem to be distressed. We are not in a noveL I wanted to be of use. That is all." "Offended—bow could I be offended?* said she. "1 asked for information and advice. You have given me both. I shall get out of my troubles now, I see. And I shall thank you for showing me how. Will you not come in? No? Good night, then." And she gave him her hand. "Please do not think I am offended."
It was very queer. If they had only known all would have been well. For this president of the Chautauqua Circle was Antony Blake. As it was they both went home, and tor two or three hours neither of them went to deep. "Ought I have said this? Why did I Bay that?" in all possible forms till nature and youth asserted themselves, and the provoking conversation was forgotten. ,.,.
CHAPTER VIH.
-V •.••w .(• r'
Edith rose the next morning with a new resolution. She went to her desk as soon as breakfast, was oyer and wrote this note:
LETTERS LOST.—A parcel of six letters, dated in May, 1888, and tied together with a white ribbon. The flnder will be thanked and liberally reworded it ho will send a note to G. B., at the poetoffice.
This advertisement she inserted in The Argus of that day. The hope she had was well enough founded. But, alas! Antony hated the politics of The Argus, which pretended to be an independent paper, and was on any side which the proprietor thought profitable. Antony never looked at any part of The Argus, least of all at the advertisements. So poor Edith's notice might have been published a month and he would have been none the wiser.
On his part, he went to the Waverley bank and asked the cashier if he would lend him $250. "What collateral?" said the cashier, who was his old ally and friend. "None," said Antony, "unless you will take stock in the Self Acting Coupler corporation, not yet organized. But if you would indorse my note I think the directors would pass it." "Nonsense," said the cashier. "Bank rules will not permit that But if you want $250, old fellow, here it is. Give me a memorandum and pay me when you like. Make it to me. This is not the bank's money it is mine. You know I am glad to serve you."
Antony thanked him and said, what was true, that he would do as much for him gladly. Then he went to the Amicable reading room and wrote to Edith this letter:
ANTONY BLAKE TO EDITH LAJS'E. WXDKBBOAT MOJUOKQ, July 3. MT PEAK MISS I^AXB—AB I absolutely have these bills in my hand I take tho liberty ot asking you to use them aa you will. There is no reason why you should have the annoyance ot addressing the officers of the baak. Please imagine me to be president of the Waverley bank, as well as president of the Chautauqua circle. Very truly yours,
Send James to me. I want to send a note down town." EDITH LANE TO ANTONY BLAKE.
DXAR MR. BLAKE—You are most kind. But already I see my way out of my embarrassments, and I return the notes at once. Very truly yours,
EDITS LAXE.
James found Antony at the St. Clair, where he had been bidden to go. Antony did not quite like the note. It seemed to him a little shorter or more sharp than it need be. Anyway, if she could be proud he could also. He put the note in his pocket and turned it over in his mind all through a long interview which he had with the Rumrills. who had sent for him again.
Then he determined to call on Miss Edith that evening. But lest she should be out he wrote the following letter:
WBDKKSDAY ArruurooN, July 8.
Mv DKAH MISS LAW*—Lest 1 do not find you at home I venture to write. For I have at bottom the feeling that you think I have taken a liberty and presumed on tho confidence which you gave me so generously last evening.
I want simply to say that you ore unjust to me if you think so. I
know that from the standard
of the novel writers of fifty years ago my proposal was not to be heard of. But I think the standard of America is higher and better. I hope tho standard ot Tamworth is higher and better. I think mea and women meet, each other with mutual respect and mutual confidence. It is not in vain that we go to the same schools, work in the same causes, study in the same circles, and in a word lire ia the same life.
If you and I were "Henry and Emma" or "Paul and Virginia" or "Silly and Bffly" or "Fergus and Kvelyn" or any other absurd people in a novel of course you would not wish to have me help you in aaysensBtle way, and 1 should never think of proposing to. But seeing we are plain Tamworth people, members ot the same church and officers in the same circle, I me no harm in what 1 have done, and I wOl not say 1 do. Truly yours,
Axrcunr BLAKB.
When Edith done home late from a long drive which she had taken in the country this note was waiting far her.
She read it more than half through with approval of the young man's pluck and pride. But when she came to "Fergus and Evelyn" the words seemed to stand out of the paper.
Or -was she crazy herself? Did she see words which were not there? Or were there ever two other people in love with each other with those two names?
She read the note through and then went to her father's den. She looked in the Telephone Directory, and then asked for 297. "Hello! ffd & "Does Mr. Antony Blake live in the St Gaii?—» "Ask Mr. Antoqy Slake
If

Poor Edith: She could have dropped on the floor foe her disappointment "What did yon mean then, Mr. Bishc. when yon said Billy and Billy, Erelyn and Fergus?1"
She had tmd the words forty Hmw while he was comings Now it was his turn to blush sad stasis*. Sordid he eee bow near was iHl™3'i *H)h--"Cjily—well, yon see—well, I eocft had seme letters—I thought thay
The lttters w«M tusaa. ipti away.* "Whore did you put them? Where ax* they now?" "Where? They are in my safe at the Amicable. I wish I knew where they ought to be."
And Edith was herself again. "Mr, Blake, I think it is for me to turn over to you soxno property of yours I have here. Indeed, I did not steal it But are not these Cattaraugus bonds yours, and this hundred dollars, perhaps, too?" And she handed him the well known parceL
CHAPTER IX.
Mr. Lane's absence in England was prolonged, and it was September before he returned. Edith met him at the Tamworth station with the carriage to bring him home. "I have so much to tell you, papa, and I do uot know how to begin." "It is clear that it is good news," said be "you look so well. And you area good woman of business—that has appeared all through from your letters." "That you will have to judge of, papa." At that moment as they crossed the station her father saw Antony Blake, pressed his hand warmly and asked him to come and see them, which Antony said he would gladly do. "That young man," said Mr. Lane as they entered the carriage, "is one of the most successful young men in this state. Whyncliffe has been talking to me about him half the time as we came on from New York. Why, Edith, he has an invention which will save thousands of lives and must be used on every railroad. He has established anew machine shop here to make his couplings, and Whyncliffe and all of them are crazy about him. "But, Edith, he is no stranger to you you used to know him. He is the same man who was in your reading club." "Yes, papa—and, papa, he has asked me to marry him, and I have told him 1 would ask you. But really, papa, he is the best man in the world, and 1 shall never marry any one else."
Thus it was that Edith made her revelation. It was not until the wedding day, however, that' she told her father that the new machine shop was built with the proceeds of the sales of Her governments and C., B. and Q.'s.
THE END.
A Mother's Grief.
"You know, Fanny, I picked out old Square toes as a safe husband for my daughter and invited him to dinner almost daily for a month. Knowing that he was something of a gourmand, I engaged an expensive cook—a real cordon bleu—and. at tua end of thirty days do you know what happened?" "No." "Why, he married the cook."—Judge.

So poor Edith actually saw her way clear to pay all her debts by incurring this one very pleasant debt to this one very gentlemanly man. She asked the servant if the bearer were waiting and was told he had gone.

"Why, daughter mine," said tho old man coming into the parlor were Alice and young Cholly Pastyhead were sitting, "come over to mel It's along time since I held you last." And he took her on his knee and embraced her, while young Cholly looked on, wishing he would get out so that he could have his turn. "It's along time since I held you," continued the old man fondly,"and you're gettinK to be quite plump. I declare, you're a good armful now!"
This was Cholly's chance to show his smartness by keeping still. But he didn't. He had to blurt out: "Yes, isn't she, though?"
The old man was seen down street the next morning pricing bulldogs.—Lawrence American.
