The next regular meeting of the Central Labor Union will be held Sunday, February 22nd. It is boped by that time that the heading cotters and brickyard men will have been organized Mid their forming a pari of the great Centra] Union. The element labor organised in tfcs city is large and comprises within its pais nearly every branch of skilled mechanical work. Outside, of this element Is an army or unskilled wage-workers who have little or no organization and to whom thorough and systematic oiganization would bring untold benefit. It is a work of herculean proportions to bring these men into united, systematic and symmetrical union, but the official organizer of this district is am an of indefatigable energy and thoroughly skilled in the work he has in hand and, backed by the Central Labor Organization, he is doing a large and effective work.

One of the most important and desirable undertakings ever inaugurated in this city for the benefit of a toiling class will be started in the course of a few days by Mrs. B. A, Dunn, of north Thirteenth street. This lady, armed with authority vested in her by the American Federation of Labor will commence -a systematic canvass of the factories and other establishments where females are employed with the purpose in view of or

nizing the working women of Terre into protective unions whose delegates will be 'eligible to membership in the Central Labor union, this is anew departure in Terre Haute in this direction and one which it is reasonably expected will work great advantage not only to those directly interested but to the cause of labor generally.

It is the iron mouUlere who are desirous of reorganizing with the old and successful "white card" system, a dissatisfaction long existing against the "red card" men or "dissenters." This condition of things was recently erroneously attributed to the pudlers who have one of the most powerful organizations in America., It is said that efforts are under way to bring about an early reorganization of the "white tard" mouMera

President Gompers wiil surely be here next Satuiday. He will arrive on the early afternoon train from the east and be met at the depot bv a reception committee of the Central Labor Union, who will look after the entertainment of the gentleman while he is in the city. His lecture will be delivered in the court house at 7:30 p. m., the circuit court room having been kindly offered by the coramisioners for the purpose. President Gompers is, by trade, a cigar maker and for years was vice president of the national organization of that great order of mechanics indeed, he retained his active membership of the makers' order until bis tremendous Increase of responstmiMes In connection With the National Federation forced him to devote his whole time to tb-o latter cause. He has devoted the best years of his life to the cause of organized labor, and probably no man in America is better qualified to discuss those questions which nave invariably and universally disturbed the public mind, pertinent to the true relations of labor to capital.

^Nsw OaUtAHS, February 9.—The Mardi O'ras carniv«l opened to-day and was favored with a dear sky and balmy winds. The Crescent city crowded with visitors from far and near, scarcely a state or territory of the ¥nion being unrepresented in the surging throngs of people upon the streets. His maieety Bex, kins of the carnival, and who was The two eases of fo impersonated by James 8. Richardson, tlie present sarrou already known to fame as the "king of tcry and which at the planters," being perhaps the most oroable, are beginning to extensive cotton «ower in the world, except the khedive of Egypt, arrived at the mouth of the river with his queen and court at noon and was welcomed by an immense fleet of steamers and sailing craft, together with a delegation of civil and military authorities, and under the escort of the latter, the distinguished arrivals disembarked. The queen is Miss Bessie Be ban, daughter of General W. J. Behan and one of this year's debutantes. Additional eclat was given to the event by the presence in the harbor of .the white squadron, comprising the Chicago, the York town and the Dolphin, under the command of Admiral Walker. The triumphal procession from the landing-place to the Grand opera house, where Kinfc Rex held a royal reception and ievee, excelled in pomp and splendor that of any previous carnival. There were fourteen bands in line and the floats and other allegorical of the pageant were gorgeous. The visiting military companies from New Jersey, Virginia, Ohio, Utah, Michigan and Marylandt had the right of line and were accorded a hearty reception. Among the distinguished

nosts wbo viewed the entrance of the and his court from the balcony of the St. Charles hotel were Ulysses S. Grant, Jr, ami the members of bis family.

James S. Richardson, the king of the Mardi Gras carnival of 189], is the largest cotton planter in the world. His plantations are located in Mississippi, cover seventy square miles and produce twenty thousand bales of cotton annually. Among them "Dabmey" is the largest comprising fifty square miles and having eighteen miles of railway track of the Louisville, New Orleam & Texas together with three villages,havingapopulation of five thousand people. He is a bachelor of massive form, asocial leader of great wealth, possessing immense stables, the finest four-horse coach in the world, and having a palatial home in this city. Miss Bessie Behan, his consort and queen of the carnival, made her debut here early in January, and went to the fore as the belle, of the season. Her father. General W. -H. Beban, is the largest wholesale grocer in the south, and an extensive sugtft' planter. He will be the next governor of thestate. Queen Bessie is of medium height, and a blond with blue-gray eves.
