The lack of a hail should not be allowed to interfere with the perfecting of this very desirable ocgani/ation of female bread winners. She should be provided with a meeting place by

After a painful and lingering illness from cancer of the face, John Con fare died at his residence on Lafayette avenue Saturday night. Ho was surrounded by the member* of hi# family at the hour of his death and his passing awav, long anticipated, came rather as a happy relief than as a sudden shock. John Con fare had a widely extended circle of Wends by whom he was most highly respected but greatly admired.

The city republican, convention held in the circuit court room Saturday night was one of the beat attended and most enthusiastic ever held. The convention was called to order at 7 55 by J. Q- Button. 8. M. Huston was chosen as permanent chairman. He made a telling speech defining the sentiment of his party on the questions of the hour. He declared he was proud to belong to a party that dared to do right because it was right. His address was frequently interrupted by enthusiastic applause. A. C. Duddleston was made secretary. Those expecting a surprise in the vote for mayor were disappointed, as it had been known for some days that C. A. Lowry would probably be nominated on the first ballot. Tho delegates composing the convention were among the city's bfst citizens, and selected the candidates for the different offices because of their eminent fitness apd quahficatioris. It was a business men's convention, and we will have a business campaign, business men being_ the candidates. The professional politician was not in it .Saturday night, neither will he be on the fifth day of May. The nominations were made in the following order, mayor, treasurer, clerk and marshal!.

Nominations for mayor being called for. Charles A. Lowry's name was presented by the First ward, as also was that of C. Bird King L. F. Perdue, by the Fourth ward, and Captain J. W. Haley by the Sixth. When the Third ward was called Dr. A.J. Thompson asked whether Mayor F. C. Danaldson was a candidate before the convention. Mr. Danaldson arose and answered for himself, in substance as follows:

I am not before thin convention because I r*«ail«! that tlu're arc many pernon* in tho partT who are opposed I* mc making the race, and 1 conRlder the party greater than any man In It, The republican party seldo* makes a mlDlAkc.

The funeral services were conducted by the German Benevolent Society, Odd Fellowe, Humboldt Lodge, Goethe Lodge, and the G. A. R., of Which organizations he was a member. The funeral procession was one of the largest that has ever occurred iu this city. The funeral cortege was headed by the G. A. R. drum corps, which played the soieron tread with mufiled drums. Fully two hundred or mofre vehicles were in the procefsion. The deceased was a native of Wuprtemberg, Germany, where he was born in 1S25. He came to this country in 1853, locating in Indianapolis, where he remained a year and then came to Terre Haute to engage in the shoe business. Ten years later he sold his shoe business and conducted the Cincinnati house for a short time, returning the shoe trade again and remaining in it till 1879, when he again sold out and has since devoted his attention to insurance. He served four years as trustee from 1884. He was also connected with the board of local fire insurance underwriters. He was a man of sterling worth aud integrity, and was held in the highest esteem by all who know him. Deceased leaves a wife and three children to mourn his loss.

It seemed that every person in audience that filled the court room called for "Lowry," and his approach to Uie speaker's stand was greeted with deafening cheers. Chairman Huston introduced the next mayor as a representative business man, a good citizen aud a candidate capable of winning the mayoralty in the race that is now begun. Mr, Lowry responded as follows: •OKHTi.itxKK-1 thank you heartily for the honor you hava conferred upon me In the nom inatlon and your hearty reception. My Intttatory work in this movement has been of a iao#t pleasant nature, because It has been with friend* who agree that the principles we represent are tight.

Chas. A. Lowry was born in Vermillion county in 1850. His father, who was one of the- pioneers of that county and was a leader in organizing the county, died when his son was but 4 years old and his mother died when he was 2 years old. He worked ou a form under the care of his guardian until he was 17 Years old when he spent three rears in Wabash college, devoting his attention principally to chemistry to fit himself for the business* in which he Is now engaged—the wholesale drug buai nees.

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT.

The School Cloned To-day on Account of Measles There.

To-day Sanitary Officer Ryle reported jthat the thirteenth district school had been closed for an indefinite length of time because of the prevalence of measles. The janitor of the school lives in the building and his daughter is down with measles, and to avoid the spreading of the tiisease among the school children it was decided that it would be beet to close up the school for the time being. The thirteenth district school is on north Third street across from Woodlawn cemetery, ia the old pest house building, which was turned into a school house a year or two ago for the benefit of those children in the portion of the city known as Swaffordsville, the extreme northern suburb.

Coming Weddings.

Intermingled with the sound of the growing grass and the blossoming of the fruit trees can be heard the murmured rumor of the following weddings which will be solemnized in the near future:

A well known yottng clerk in one of the offices of tho Vandalia road to a lady living ou the North Side who is quite prominent in one of the churches.

A handsome typographical artist to a pretty young lady, residing on north Eleventh street,

A young engineer employed in an uptown concern, will soon bring a bride from the east

A Cleveland railroad man will soon wed a Terre Haute girl on south Thir-teenth-and-a-half street. The young lad/ is quite well known and very prettv. Hie gentleman has frequently visited in the city.

A young lawyer of decidedly brunette type will wed a lady living in one of the southern Illinois towns.

Dreadfalljr

On Saturday, Henry Jack, with several other men, was engaged in placing a brick under a box car at the car works when a lever held by one of the men slipped out of his hands and let an iron whirl down on one of Jack's fee^ crushing it in a korrible manner.

Base ball ftffo handed sons of toil, amusement that brixr brief, rest and relaxati toil that is pleasiogto is an army of commeri Terre Haute wh forward to a for Terre Haute moet pleasurable anticipations. Theprospw.t that lowered over the community so lone, that the niggardliness of the street rail way company would effectually dispell all chances of our having good ball here this season, was an unpleasant one to many of our people who 'take a reasonable and laudable interest in the same, and to none more so than to many of our business men and citizens who recognise the value of league a«ociation for a general and effective advertising of the city abroad.

Then there employes in have looked ue season

Wfth the

The drive and push tho first rate work -accomplished by those, gentlemen wbo have latterly taken up the duty of bringing Terre Haute into league connection, has been fruitful of the best results and lovers of base ball can reasonably congratulate Messrs. Allen, McChesnev and Schaal for the excellent manuer in which they have conducted the campaign. The unavoidable delay in getting our work in has probably resulted in the loss of George Brsckett as manager. Peoria slipped in and signed him. He leaves Lynn, Mass., for .Peoria this morning and in a dispatch received from him Saturday night he said: "Soon as I arrive think I can fix it to manage Terre Haute. Don't give up. Will either be with you or get you a good manager."

An assurance like this from George Barekett of itself is enough,to dispell any possible doubt of our bevig able to get on our feet with a good team. "Brackett is a man of very few wordiand he never talks nonsense this is tlS$ tribute paid the man by a gentleman wHo knows him well. The directors of last year's association met Saturday night and elected officers ss follows

President—F. K. Benjamin. Treasurer—G. A. Schaal. Secretary—George M. Allon, General manager—Jas. McChesney.

Mr. McChesney's position carries with it the burden of keeping up the grounds, selling tickets and several other important duties. These gentlemen are wideawake, energetic men and that no better selection could have been! made, THE NEWS is confident all will admit. They took up the work of arrangement when all conditions wer6 most unfavorable and it belongs to the friends of base ball here to give them a most liberal support. As has been said the lovers of ball here are legion. There is

scarcely

any one

who cannot contribute something. Let the money roll in. If you cannot give $5, Mr. Fan, give what you can give it cheerfullv and give it at once. There has been awakened an unusual interest among our resident commercial travelers and it is confidently expected a large fund will be derived from these good natured, liberal gentlemen. P. W. Staak and Boudinot Hunley have the matter in hand and a long list of So contributions, it is thought, will soon be handed over in cold cash. R. A. Campbell, always to the front when public spirit and push is needed, has communicated with the C. & E. I. official board and asked that that covpany contribute to the fund. The Vandalia company came down without a murmur with $300. The C. & E. I. people will not be likely to do much less.

The outlook is most flattering and that we will be saved having a dead town this season is now an assured fact. Messrs. Allen, McCbesney, Schaal and their confreers are entitled to the sincere thanks of a big, fun-loving population.

Angelo Gabath stabbed his mother-in-law to death and dangerously stabbed his father-in-law, and was himself slain by Conaquito Chincella, his brother-in-law. A general melee followed in which Gabath's wife and her brother were also stabbed. Gabath was a worthless, idle fellow, and visited his mother-in-law last night, it is believed, to secure some money which she had saved. After the parties had retired for the night, Gabath entered his mother inlaw's room and fairly disembowlled her with a stiileto. He then went to his father-in-law's room and attacked the old man with the stilletto, which was still reeking with his wife's blood. The noise awakened Chincella, who seized his own stilletto and sprang on Gabath. A fight to death followea and in a few moments Gabath fell to the floor dead, with a tdilletto driven through his left eye into brain. As he fell to the floor Chiucello drew out the weapon and plunged it in Gaboth's left side. By this time Gabath'* wife and Chinee lla's brother were anions the combatants, the wife vainly striving to shield her husband. The neighbors meanwhile were clamoring outside for entrance and when the door was finslly broken in, a sickening sight WSJwitnessed. Gabatli's dead body was on the floor, drenched in blood, with his wife mourning over him, also covered with blood. Old Ch{pee 11a lay groaning on the bed, the blood running in streams from his wound* and in the next room his wife lay dead on the floor in a great pool of bloiod. Young Chincella and his brother were amass of gore, both having been wounded in tho fight. The rooms were literally running with blood. The police were hastily summoned and took charge of the place.
