A TERRE HAUTE HOUSE SENSATION.

A Wicked Young Man and an Indiscreet Young Girl. Quite a commotion was created at the Terre Haute House last evening, by a young wholesale grocery drummer, from Indianapolis, named Purcell Wiggins and his friend, A. P. Craig, another young Adonnis,whose whereabouts when at home, we do not know.

It appears that the former persuaded a young girl of this city to accompany him to his room in the Terre Haute House Leaving the girl there a short time he went out, his friend Craig meanwhile going in, whereupon the girl gave a sharp scream and hastily made her exit. She ran home and told her parents what had occurred. Her father and self then came down town and made affidavit that Wiggins had committed a crime, which, while it shall be nameless here, will nevertheless be understood.

The accused was soon afterwards arrested and was detained over night. This morning the prosecuting witness appeared in court, by her attorneys, Messrs. Mack and Rumsey, and withdrew the previous complaint and preferred another, simply charging assault and battery with criminal intent. Defendant, by his counsel, Mr. Voorhees, waived an examination, and was held to bail in the sum of $500 by the Mayor, which he promptly gave and was discharged.

A charge of aiding and abetting was preferred against Wiggins' friend, Craig, which was afterwards withdrawn or dismissed.

The young man, Mr. Purcell Wiggins, will probably receive such admoniton as will teach him a lesson that he should have learned long before he reached the age of 23. He should be severely dealt with for the intent. The girl is very young and was doubtless over-persuaded, and should receive the charity of the community for her indiscretion in having accompanied a strange and wicked young man to his room, under any circumstances. At the same time, we would not have the young man, who will learn a lesson by this publicity, too severely censured, hoping that he may be a better boy in future.

ONE of the great needs of our city—and one that will cost the merest trifle—is some system of numbering houses. The plan adopted in Philadelphia is the best and most simple of which we have any knowledge. By the adoption of such a system the growth of the city in the future would not interfere with the numbering of the houses. We ought also to have the names of streets painted on the street lanterns.

THE march of improvement is sending the nail works rapidly along thehighway of progress. A call there, yesterday, showed many efforts in the progressive line. Two new heating furnaces are being erected. Preparations are making for the erection of anew warehouse, four times as large as the old one. The main building is to be largely extended at both ends to make room for thirty-three new machines, twenty-eight of which are already received. The office of the establishment is being moved one square east from the old site.— Express.

WE are glad to learn that the P. & A. telegraph is meeting with success in this city Our business men who patronize that line speak in the highest terms of satisfaction of the prompt manner in which their messages are delivered. We have not heard a single complaint of lack of promptness and accuracy. This speaks well for the P. & A. and its managers, here and elsewhere.

ALBERT BUNTA appeared before the Mayor this noon and complained that one Henry S. Ellis appropriated the coat of complainant. The charge being sustained on the evidence, defendant was held to bail in the sum of $100. The only mitigating circumstance was the fact of the intoxication of defendant at the time of committing the larceny.

MESSRS. HULMAN & Cox, Tuell, Ripley & Deming and other leading merchants have employed special watchmen to guard their premises against fire. This is certainly a timely precaution and may prevent dire disaster, as afire at this time, when water is so scarce, would prove very disastrous, and should be guarded against regardless of expense.

THE new blast furnace is progressing slowly but surely toward completion. It will not be likely to blow in" for eight or ten weeks to come. The old stack is getting thin, and the molten iron has recently broken through the shell several times, creating a good deal of commotion. This happened twice on Sunday evening. It is, however, tnrning out No. 1 pig at the rate of 156 tons a week.— Express.

THE Evansville Journal says that W. H. H. PJjpnmer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Avery Plummer, deceased, is a mail agent on the St. Louis & Southeastern Railroad that he has several brothers and sisters .residing in New York, who will mourn the unfortunate death of their parents.

THE Journal clamors for the publication of the verdict of the Coroner's jury on the death of Mr. and Mrs. Avery Plummer. We have not seen the verdict, but understand that it exonorates the railroad company and its employees of any blame. We can not see how they were to blame in the premises.

THE following transfers of real estate 'have been recorded since yesterday noon: Stephen Koester to Julius Koester, interest in

a

lot in Kelley's subdivision for

$140. Thomas McCoskey to John D.McCoskey $5 acres in Jloney Cteek towp&big) for $50Q.

A MEETING of the stockholders of the Evansville, Terre Hate & Chicago Rail road is in session this afternoon in the parlors of the Terre Haute House. The object of the meeting is for consultation concerning the proposed consolidation of this company with the road from Dan ville to Chicago.
