To Advertisers,

The ubllshers of.tbe GAZETTE recently purchased from the Cincinnati type foundery a complete new dress of type. It has been resolved to enlarge the paper to eight columns. These improvements we trust will be duly appreciated. They will enable advertisers to essay much better style in their notices, and will give the GAZETTE more "tfreathing room" for the extra reading matter that it is henceforth proposed to run. As this is the beginning of the spring ''eason, and as these improvements

xuot

temporary ones, but the uatXtgrowth °f increased business,

ONE OF THE GANG.

The Public Printer Yis« its Terre Haute and Indulges in a

Drunken Debauch,

HIS CONFESSION TO A CIIOWD OF BAR BOOM ACQUAINTANCES.

A Man Who Knows the llopes.

At two o'clock Monday afternoon, there arrived at the T. H. House a pair of gentlemen who registered, R. W. Clapp, Washington, D. C., and P. Howard, Chicago. The latter was about one-fourth drunk, and the former about one-half drunk.

Before they took their departure, Mr. Howard was about thiee-fourths drunk, and Mr. Clapp entirely drunk. They bawled, and brayed, and howled around tbe house until their conduct became unbearable, and the proprietors and guests were heartily glad when they took their departure at about eight o'clock in the evening.

This pair of jolly dogs, were no less personages than the public print' erofthe United States, and a member of the editorial staff of the Chicago Times.

Their indentity would not have been revealed if they had not indulged so freely in the convivial bowl. From the time of their arrival until eight o'clock in the evening tbev spent their time in drinking and makiDg as much noise as thestength of their lungs would permit. They met a great many convivial companions in tbe bar room, all of whom they invited to drink with them. Toward evening Mr. Clapp became so well acquainted with his new found friends, that he determined to confide to them a pro. found secret which he would not impart to any one but a tried aud true friend. Calling them together, he began. "Look here,genl'mn (hie) you'r all friends of mine'n I'm goin' to tell you sumpin. (hie) My name's Clapp you know, maybe you've heard about me been a good many people hearin about me lately (hie). I'm from Washington you see (hie) public printer you know (hie). This dam 'vestigation Clymer committee'n that sort a thing's raiein' the devil witn me. (hie)

I made three hundred thousand dollars out o' that business, 'n I might 'a mads as much more if 'tad' ent been for that dam Ciymer'n his committee." "How did you make so much asked one of his listeners. "Howd di makeit! Zats easy nuf. You see youd hafer understan er ropes fore you could comprehend. We double up on composition then we soak it to 'em on paper, there's a thousand ways you can make money in Washington after you once learn er ropes. (Hie.) Took me three or four years to learn er ropes. I've got er money all safe in Canada. (Hie.) Zit^s mine here's frieiid o' one editor's Chicago 68, (bic,) dam good feller he is, too.

He knows all about it. I guess maybe he'll go to' Canada with me'n have a high old time over there where we can snap our fingers at er dam old Ciymer'n his committee Ain't zat so Howard? Eh? you bet. I don' care I'm goin git out'n tbe country, then

ole

Clymer can do what he pleas es'n be damned to him. •Taint no harm to beat er government every body does it. The only trouble is (hie) they'r all gettin 'caught at it now. Aint zat so, Howard? eh? You bet zat so, You see, Howard, and me know all about zis sing we'v been in Washington i'r 'bout seven years now we'v learned all tbe ropes. W® know all about every thing that's goin on. Aint zat so, Howard? eh? You bet zat so (hie) les take a

driPj*«'

The drunken fool rattled on in this manner for over an hour, boasting of the large suins he had made out of the printing business, and of the many crooked transactions he was cognizant of. He did not, however, reveal anything concerning any prominent men, but confined his revelations solely to his own affairs.

What the pair were doing here, is difficult te imagine. It is probable that they merely dropped ofl here to continue a drunken debauch which had already begun. Tbey left the Terre Haute House in a hack at about eight o'clock P. M., for tbe depot, where they took the first train for Chicago. Mr. Clymer would do well to summon the men to whom these drunken confessions were made.

MR. POPE, shpe man, running establishments in various cities, now in Terre Haute, in the interest of the monster bankrupt store, is winning a reputation as a most skillful writer of telling advertisements. The live "monster bankrupt" which appeared in all of the papers in such mysterious fashion fashion, just before the house opened attracted a great deal of attention He has now turned his attention to the com* position of sbort advertisements which appear in the GAZETTE and in diminutive hand bills which are dilligently distributed over town and which evince considerable talent in that line. Mr. Pope was formerly a newspaper man, and evidently got while in the business a thorough training.

ARE AMONG US,

Who iiids.

Ye GAY GAZETTEER this morning ran across a gentleman from Kansas who was inquiring for a beer garden, •ear the corner of Third and Main. Of course Ye GAY G. did not know there were any such places in the world, (he had heard of flower and vegetable gardens) and the innocent business men in that vicinity were equally ignorant of the existence of any such things, and of course were doubly stupitied by the Kansas gentleman stating that he know of no plants or flowers raised in thase gardens.

Upon inquiring, it was found that the man from Grasshopperdoin has a beffalo, an antelope two jackass rabbits and a prairie dog, ail of which he wishes to sell, as he,is anxious to return to Kan» sas and cultivate his farm. Ho and companions, Messrs. Martin and two men named Dobsen, (his own name is Tuttle) left Kansas last fail with these curiosities—at least so to eastern people—and have putin tbe winter exhibiting them at times in order to defray the expenses of traveling. The reporter accompanied Mr. Tuttle to the vacant ground near the E. & C. freight depot,where tbe wagon was, and ascertained much about Kansas, by diligent questioning on the way. This party of four men came overland a distance of 1200 miles camping out nights and leading the Buffalo*by a halter by day.

On questioning, it was learned that in Mr. Tuttle's opinion, there are more people in Indiana hungry to-day than there ever were in Kansas in the worst grasshopper times. It is all a mistake about the grasshoppers climbing up telegraph poles to read the dispatches, and learn of the regions where good crops had been untouched.

People there

were a little hard up, but they were never hungry, and they never pretended to get the thousands of good things sent out by agentB who came through the east taking up subscriptions. Most of the goods sent out thre were tither sold before they reached Kansas, or were sold to the sufferers themselves. "Nine-tenths of the fuss," said Mr, Tuttle, "about starvation iwas humbug." By this time the wagon was reached and an eager crowd: of men and boys was seen gathered around. The builalo is a well made animal but three years old and only half grown. The antilope is a beautiful animal about the size of a sheep. According to Mr. Tuttle, these are tbe rapidest movers on the plains. They have been known to beat lightening on short distances, and can walk away from a rifle ball with ease. The .jackass rabbits are next in speed. Tbey ouly make seventeen miles a minute, but nnder cultivation may be made th travel a little faster, and go at quite respectable gait. The two 'specimens in possession of this party »ra fine ones. The prairie dog is is young, and is now about tho siz3

NEW STYLE OF ENGINE

An eugine is nearly completed at the shops of the Pennsylvania Company which it is claimed posesses greater power and to run at less expense than any other engine, as it utilizes both smoke and steam, and that it will, draw a heavily loaded train of 100 cars, and can be stopped within its own length. The cabin is on top of the boiler, and tbe smoke stack is the size of a common stove pipe*—[Ind Journal,

A graypl train was started yesterterday to run to Vandalia and return each day. The gravel is taken out of the east pit the other one being full of water. This makes a heavy run of 180 mile der day.

A Mistake.

A fcetus about half matured, was found in a building on Main street yesterdav, preserved in a jar of alcahol. Coroner Boston was notified and he at once took charge of the child. For time it was thought that a case of mal practice was about to be nnearthed,but investigation developes the fact that the mother ot the child suffered a misscarriage from natural causes. She was attended by a prominent physiciftn9 wbo86 character is a sufficient guarantee that nothing wrong has been done. The affair has been the talk of the town fcto-day, and many cruel and unjnst things have been said concerning the unfortunate mother.

The Y.'M. C. A. Monthly Meeting will be held iu the Association Room on to-morrow, Tbuisday evening. All persons interested in the saccess of the association ought Jto be present. A very pleasant time may be expected* The meeting will bo but little occupied with business, but will be thrown open for free conversation, singing and sociaibly.

THE model of the State Normal school was not sent direct to Philadelphia from here, as supposed by some of our citizens. Mr. John Oakey saw it in Bowen & Stewart window, the cynosure of all eyes on Monday. Thirty car loads of Centennial stuff will be sent from indianapoiis ia a day or two.

SUICIDES, abortions, and ^ild anlmulee, make the local writers hum to-day.

Personal.

Mr. J. A. Peabody has an Italian coin which has the date of

Qf

a kitten. All of these animals, though the wildest, shyest, fleetest on tne plains, are tame. They are all genuine curiosities. Mr. Tuttle's idea is that, if purchased by the proprietor of some beer garden,thMtfmffll frlltiTri JUT*? pWPorattention. He will Bell the entire lot for flCO.OO, as his interests at home require that he return immediately. He also has a wagon and a span of mules to sell. If unable to dispose of the collection entire, lie will sell any part of it.

Yesterday he was seen to bold up a piece of iron and thus adjure it: "You do solemnly swear to teil the truth,the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God."

Warren Hussey, well known here, is expected to arrive in the city this evening, en route from Washington to his home in the west. He has but lately returned from a business trip to Europe. His testimony concerning the Emma mine was delivered before the investigating committee at Washington, day before yesterday. At one time he was a large owner of stock in that mine.

The statement in the item which appeared in the GAZETTE of yesterday, concerning the contents of two old Terre Haute Journals, found in the panels of the doors at J. P. Tutt's store, that James B. Edmunds was editor of the Journal at that time, was an error. Colonel Cookeriy was editor-in-chief, and Mr. Edmunds local editor of the paper at the time mentioned

A great many parties in this city, are indebted to Tom Jackson, on old and long standing accounts lor coal furnished, when he was a dealer in that article. Those who can possibly raise the money to discharge their obligations to this unfortunate man should do so at once, as he is in sore need of the money. He declares that those who can pay. and won't shall be made to pay. He is growing desperate.

He will have the sympathy of manv hearts in Terre Haute.

Amusements. FRANK E. AIKEN.

A fair audience witnessed the second performance of "Bert," last evening at the Opera House, and all who were present seemed highly pleased.

The drama is one of Bartley Campbell's best sensational efforts, and in some passages the language will compare favorably with that of any play extant.

Mr. Aiken has employed the talent of tbe best dramatic witers, from time to time, in the production of new specialties, and be is now exclusive owner of tbe copyright of several popular plays,but he considers this, his last acquisition, the best of all. Mr. Aiken was, for several yaars a leading mana ger in Chicago, where he was burned out of house and home, as it were, on three separate occasions.

He has been starring through the country for the past two seasons, and has met with flattering success.

Miss Howard, who supports Mr. Aiken in the leading lady roles, is a charming actress, young, ^handsome and talented. She fairly cap tivated all who witnessed her acting at the Opera House last evening and the evening previous. Miss Ella Wren seemed absolutely perfect in every particular as Patty Babbington.

Mr. Daniel Loane, as Jarves Josslyn did some very fine acting. Such parts are the most difficult in the entire caBt of a drama, to portray well.

A Matinee this afternoon, and]a performance this evening, will close the engagement of the company in this city.

To THE humble and credulous as well as the rich and skeptical, Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is a true and welcome friend.
