Its Blooming Bachelors.

What a Good Hotel Can Do.

The Old Terre Haute House.

Terre Haute Letter in The Indianapolis Journal. Good hotels are always objects of pride to the citizens of any community, and justly so, for from the impression formed by the treatment and comforts found in the hotel*., do travelers spread abroad their ideas of the locality visited.

Of these institutions Terre Haute is well provided to an extent that is very gratifying to mention, she has good hotels.

Probably one of the best known in this section of the country is the famous old Terre Haute House, one of the oldest institutions of the kind west of the Alleghanies, unexcelled anywhere. It is one of the old-time landmarks of the State, with a very interesting history, and has probably been the resting place of more prominent men and famous celebrities than any other house, except the Astor House, of New York, that now exists The house was built in 1840 by the late Chauncey Rose, in the days of the oldtime stage coaches, when the old National road was being built by Major Ogden of the regular army, agreeably remem bered by many of our old citizens Standing on the corner of Main and

Seventh streets, it is now conveniently located, ju6t where its far-seeing, energetic originator predicted it would be, that it, right in the heart of the city, but in those days it was regarded as a foolish enterprise and waste of money, neither near the river nor canal, the two objective Doints in commercial speculations then. It is built around three sides of* large, open, neatly kept, paved court, alone one side of which is

ed veranda, the scene of countless evenings ot social gatherings of the many occupants of the house, and where jokes

and

witty tales that would fill volumes have been related. And, by the way, from this same veranda, at certain time6, can a very fine echo be heard in fact, one old time boyrder of the house, one evening, when gal­

exhibiting the echo to several ladies, succeeded in producing an effective reply, the strangeness of which has obtained an almost national notoriety, and for talking-back qualities excelled any phonograph that Edison can invent. The ladies were at once convinced of its wonderful qualities, and their gallant "author of the call" distractingly disgusted »'jn his astounding effect. Fo^^ 'j

by

ask any old resident febiiilt. This was 1656 the heijf^ disaster. In 1858 a con £re iMfe* addition was built on, and again, in 1876, was extensively im proved.

In April, in 1875, the house passed in to the ownership of Messrs. Ripley Tuell, and under the management of Mr George E. Ripley, one of the most affable, gentlemanly hotel men to be met with, who is assisted by his son George, and Messrs A. Shaw and Eli B. Hamil ton as clerks—an excellent staff. But one ot the noticeable features of the house, especially to the ladies of Terre Haute, is the peculiar fascination it has upon the gentlemen, for no order of monks could be more devoted to celibacy than are the gentleman who make it their home. "Abandon ye all hope (or desire of marriage) who enter here," seems to be an invisible inscription somewhere over ts hospitable doors,and with good reason may the ladies here regard the house with dubious feelings of admiration, and with an inquisitive desire to know what makes it such a rival to their blandishments with the men. It would appear as if for once that oft quoted expression, of "All the comforts of a home," was realized in this hotel by the men, and so complete their satisfaction in its comforts that the doubtful benefits of a wife lose all their charms, and they become confirmed, contented, jolly old bachelors, greatly to their lady friends' disgust. In fact, it is whispered that when a lady is engaged to a gentleman and 6he learns that he has pone to the "Terre Haute" to board, the immediately casts her matrimonial net for another lover, accepting it as certain that the fir6t will never enter the bridal harness. This may be only runior, however.

&

Among the many regular guests of the house, a glance through its books shows there are thirty-six gentlemen that are bachelors (or widowers), all permanent settlers, and giving no evidence "•f any intention to become benedicts

And it is to be noted that they are all excellent, worthy gentlemen, steady in habits, engaged in good business or professions, and all very eligible to become husbands—a peifect aggravation to the ^ladies.

All of these are of trom one to six years resider.se in the house, and are safe to be arded as old bachelors. And they are an unexcelled social fraternity, in many features resembling the famous "Albany", bachelor club, of Boston.

Some of them are quite popular ladies' men, and are the leaders of a circle that gives a ssries of brilliant social reunions at the hotel each winter. But there are

them. The latter class are few in numbers, though. It is something curious to observe their deep interest in the daily marriage license report, arid to hear their commiserating expressions of "poor fellow, well, well,"as they read of some old companion who has left the bachelor. state, and then to see the comforting glances they bestow on each other as they read over the divorce liat, would at onct convince their lady friends of the hopelessness of thsir condition.

However, this peculiar bachelor coterie, with all their oddities, are a right royal genial party of gentlemen, seldom equaled for good qualities, at once a pride and benefit *0 Terre Haute. And from their frequently-heard growls and mutterings, the ladies seem to have discov ered their usefulness tor festivals, picnics, benefits, etc., and just how to turn them to good account, in spite of themselves Although they will not marry, yet they are BO har.dy to have around, and the ladiesknow and appreciate this comforting fact, for what would society do without them, you know.

REV. ROBERT B. CROES. From the lookers (N. T.) Statesman. This veteran Minister of Christ died in this city, on Monday morning July 32. The rfuneral services over the remains were held at St. Paul's Church, on Wednesday afternoon. The clergy present, clothed in surplices, entered the north doorofthechurch, the Rector, Rev. C. M. Wines, reciting the opening sentences ot the Episcopal burial service. When the coffin had been deposited in the chancel, and the clergy had taken their places in the stalls the anthem was read by the Rev. Edward B. Boggs,

D. T., of Newark, and the les«on was read by the R«v. W. Alien'John son, of Connecticut, the son of the late Rev. S. R. Johnson, D. D., a classmate and lifelong friend of the deceased The remaining sentences and prayers of the service were read by the Rev, Francis H. Stubbs, ot New York. The clergy and family accompanied the remains to St. John's Cemetary, where the service ot committal was read by the venerable Rev. William Shelton, D. D. of Buffalo, the classmate and intimate friend of Dr. Croes for more than fifty years.

The clergy present, in addition to those named above, were Rev J. W. ShackeT ford, D. D., of New York Rev. A. Atkins, D. D., Rector of St. John 1 Church, Rev. Wm. Hyde, Rector Christ Church, Rev. M. R. Hooper and Rev. L. Cobb' all of Yonkers and Rev. G. B. Johnson, of St. Paul's School, Concord, New Hampshire.

After his admission to the ministry he traveled extensively throughout the United States, presenting the claims of the seminary, then in its infancy, to churchmen. Several years were then spent in Richmond, Va., as as sistant to Bishop R. C. Moore, at the Monumental Church, and afterwards as Rector of St. John's Church. He was for some years Rector ol St. Peter's Church, Freehold, N. J., and also of St. Peter'6 at Spotswood, twelve miles distant, generally preaching in both churches every Sunday, and not urtfrequently walking from one to the other between the services.

In 1843

he

removed to Terre Haute

Indiana, where he resided tor several years, building up the church there, and also doing a large amount of missionary work in'adjoining counties.

&

BAt that time

there were neither railroads nor tele graphs, in that territory, and ia missionary was obliged to undergo extreme hard ships. It was during one of his trips on clerical duty that exposure to a severe storm brought on an attack of the disease which for thirty years burdened his life, and for the last seven years inca pacitated him for duty. As long, how ever, as the asthma permitted, he persist ed in his labors, ana for several years spent the winter in missionary duty in the southern and southwestern states of the union, where the climate gave him relief from the suffering produced by exposures to th« cold of northern win ters.

His failing health compelled him, however, for the last six years to remain at his son's residence in this city, fro: whence he passed peacefully to his final rest early on Monday morning last. 1

THE BRADLEY PROMETHOR.

Wliat It Is and How It Came to be IuvcBted—What it is Claimed Can be Done

From *be Philadelphia Record ht years ago the Rev. Robert D. ey preached in a town in the State of Missouri from the text: "And the

Lod God formed man of the du6t of the ground, and breathed into his no6tril« the breath of life and man became a living soul." Mr. Bradley had from boyhood been an ardent admirer of the steam engine, and after returning to his study at the conclusion of the services, his mind continued to dwell on the words of his text, and as if by inspiration, a new field of thought was opened to him. "Man is |a piece of machinery," he reasoned to himself, "with the Author of all things as his maker and therefore, he must have been made perfect on a phys ical poin*

0f

view. The entire organism

of man was created and completed, but n«t until God breathed into his nostrils, the breath of life did he become a living, active being. As soon as that part ot the human machine called the lungs was breathed into, and the air cells were filled then the heart was set in motion, and the blood began coursiDg through the body and man became a living soul."

Discarding the theory of Harvey on the circulation of the blood, which supposes that the heart is the engine which forces the blood through the veins, Mr. Bradley conceived the idea that the ex pansion and contraction of the air cells of the lungs are the forces which Bend the blood coursing through the body, and that the heart with its valvular action RUwoiy regulates the supply.

the construction of machinery or science of chemistry, be^an the experi­

of constructing a new motive power to supply the place of steam and to do away with'the necessity of the cumbersome steam boiler.

For eight years the inventor has pursued his pet idea, in the face of opposing obstacle, until at last he has perfected a motive power which, it is said, is destined to revolutionize the use of steam power throughout the world. This invention is known a6 the Bradley Proinethor. In its construction it is simple its power is said to be unlim^

a7'Uon^

While water is known to be composed of two elements (hydrogen and oxygen), yet it is claimed that the gas which produced by forcing the 6pray of water into the heated globes, or generator, is not hydrogen, as the iron would not be able to withstand the action of that sub stance. The gas produced by the method described has not been analyzed, and we are really," 6aid Mr. L. Montgom ery Bond yesterday, "u«ing a power, the real nature of which has not vet been ascertained."

During an experiment tv Bradley's new process of producing this dry vapor or gas a half barrel of water was consumed, and not the least trace of the vapor could be discovered on the window glass. The speed of the machinery driven by this power is regulated by the supply of water forced into the generator.

The advantage claimed over steam by the inyentor of this machine is an immense having in the cost of propelling an engine. It is claimed for it that it will only require one-fourth the amount of coal that is consumed in running an ordinary steam engine, to say nothing of the saving of labor, as in cases of ocean steamships, where a large force is required in the fire-room.

In making a trip of ninety-five miles, a few days since, with this power only one and a half bushels of coal were* consumed. Then there is economy in space, no ponderous boilers being required to supply the engine with steam. It is asserted also that no explosion can result from the use of the new power. It causes little noise, and emits no cinders to blind the eyes of passengers,

Mr. Bradley is a native of Maryland, and he is now residing at Preston, in Caroline county, and is but 36 years of age. Although strongly wedded to his wonderful enterprise, he has never allowed it to interfere with his ministerial labors in the Methodist Episcopal Church. He is an able and eloquent orator, and discharges the duties of his ministerial office purely for the love of the work, and without salary. Since realizing the fulfillment of his hopes in the perfection of his ingenious production, he has secured patents to protect it in twenty-6ix countries, in every part of Europe except Holland and Portugal.

A company with an authorized capital of $5,000,000 has been formed in New Jersey, the charter having been taken out in that State on account of the liberal laws regulating patents. The company proposes to sell the use of the Promethoon the payment of a royalty and to sell the right injeertain States absolutelv, ner gotiations already having been proposed for the State of "California. The steamer River Queen, lying at Kensington, and the Bradley, another steamer, have been furnished with this power, and will shortly go into service. i„

RUFUS CATS

Saratoga Springs, N. Y., July 27, 1S7S. To the Editor of the Banner ot Light: In your issue of July 5, 1878,1 find a communication from Allen Pence ot Terre Haute, Indiana, in relation to the seances of Anna Stewart and Laura Morgan.

The communication of Mr. Pence, will mislead a good many. It is not in accordance with the facts, as observed by myself and others, at a number of seances given by Mrs. Stewart last winter. Last January I visited Terre Haute, and attended five seances given by Mrs. Stewart two of the seances were private.

Several of the seances, which I attended, were also attended by Dr. J. A. Newton, and Mr. Garwood, of Boonville, Indiana.

Th«y, as well as myself, failed to recognize any of the so-called spirit forms. Mr. Pierce, in his communication says, the frivolous who demand fraud proot conditions, enn be accommodated by securing private seances.

Neither the "frivolous," nor the candid, earnest investigator at a private seance, is allowed to place any fraud proof conditions around the medium.

All of Mrs. Stewart's seances, (whether public or private) are presided over, managed, and controlled by Mr. Pence. All thorough test conditions are denied the investigator. When you ask that a committee of ladies shall be allowed to examine Mrs. Stewart's clothing and room ^onduct from the examining Pence "that ittiS??*' Jouare told by Mr. times but you will nbi4.one

a

hundred

ply any such tests. -M°wed

to

aP*

The careful investigator will find instead ot the Medium remaining in the chair in the cabinet, a "form" is trade up and left in the chair to represent the medium and the medium comes forth, clad to represent a spirit.

If the investigator will go into the adjoining room, referred to by Mr. Pence, •(as D** Newton and myself did, when tjwe was no one present to interrupt 0115 experiments,) they will find that a person in the adjoining room can talk through the partition wall and it will sound as if the voice proceeded from the dummy seated in the cabinet. Dr. New ton and myself frequently changed places, and each one was able to produce the same effect.

The investigator at Mrs. Stewart's

more minutes always intervene after Mis. Stewart enters the cabinet, before any manifestations occur and that the same interval of time occurs between the appearance of any two spirits and that the audience are required to retain their seats, and not allowed to look into the cabinet until fifteen or more minutes after the appearance of the last spirit, and not until Mrs. Stewart is readv to come out of the cabinet. Why it is" so, will readily appear.

The'form'or'dummy' left seated in the cabinet is made up bv Mrs. Stewart, with materials secreted under her clothing and 60 the different spirit forms are but Mrs. Stewart clad and made up to represent them, with a variety of clothing concealed on her person, and carried into the cabinet by Mrs. Stewort.

I discovered so much fraud being practiced upon me by Mrs. Stewart at those seanecs, (particularly the last seance given me) that I am fully satisfied, that all the so-called spirit manifestations, which took place in my presence, were frauds practiced by Mrs. Stewart.

In regard to Laura Morgan's seances (referred to by Mr. Pence), I can only say that I attended only one of her seances, and being assisted by Mr. Benj. Winchester, of Council Bluffs, Iowa, I lied Miss Laura so securely in the cabinet that the spirits entirely failed to manifest themselves, think any person who has seen Baldwin the trickster, tie knots, can tie Laura Morgan so that there will not be any spirit manifestations in her presence.

I hope the time may come when every spiritualist, and every earnest, truthful investigator of spirit phenomena, will not hesitate to let the public know of all frauds which they discover so-called mediums trying to practice upon the public.

The truth, as rev a!ed by spiritualism, is too valuable to be allowed to be countet feited by those who are proved to be frauds,

Yours trulv,

Saratoga Springs, July 8, 1878.

EXCITING COMBAT OF SNAKES. From the Washington Star. An exciting "mill" took place at the National Museum the other day. The live snakes, of which there are quite number, are kept in four glass cases, the bottoms of which are covered with sand. Recently a water snake was put in the case which the king snake occupies. His kingdom resented the intrusion and attacked the visitor, and the two went tumbling around the case to gether in approved pugilistic style. Three rounds were fought. In the first two the king snake forced the fighting, and the water snake confined himself mainly to getting out of the awkward and dangerous positions in which the strength and skill of his adversary placed him. But as the "dodo will turn when trodden upon" so will the water snake when bitten too hard, and when rubbed down with a sponge after the second round he seemed to get his second wind and was eagar for the fray. Meanwhile the king snake had opened his mouth to its full capacity, and was sharpening his teeth against the side of the case. Then came the fierce encounter, and both snakes fought nobly. Finally the king snake took his adversary's head entirely in his mouth and begand to chew on it, which seemed to discourage the water snake, and caused his backer to throw up the sponge. The Victor of the match is an old hand at contests of this kind, and recently bit an offending neighbor completely in two.
