THURSDAY, MAY

M879.

N IN new houses are being built out on south Fourth street.

EVERYBODY is going to take in the ball o: the Ringgold Band on Thursday nigl.t.

THE Northern rolling mills hare been enclosed with a substantial high board fence.

THF. river is at a very low state, and the bars are beginning to show up out in the stream.

A HANDSOME new fence is being built in front of Mr. R. Ci. Heivey'n I't'tKiuiicc on South Sixth street.

BCSINESS is so rushing that Mr. Chat ley Feltus is compelled to advertise for more paper hangers.

YKSTERDAY a water crane was put in for Mr. Jerry Hibben, who will do some street sprinkling thit» summer. «.

A GRAND time is expected at Turner Hall on Thursday evening. The music will be worth the price of admission.

THE brick mason6 have commenced work on the new residence for Dr. S watford, corner of Sixth and Poplar streets.

A DONATION party was, during week, given to Cash Reeves bv lriends. Cash has become totally in the last year.

THE St, Nicholas restaurant on Sixth street, opposite the postollice, sustain a first class reputation. It is doing an excellent business.

A LIVELY 6et to took place between a norih-ender and a country man last evening tfver a trilling matter in which the city chap got the worst of the affair. No names.

PARTIKS who have returned from Greenfield bayou fishing report the bass plenty, hungry and willing. Some very fine strings of fish have been cuught recently.

THERE is talk of one more saloon being started north of the railroad crossing some where. The cxact location has not been decided upon yet but it will be close to the I. Sc St. L. depot.

TIIERF. will be a benefit ball Thursday night. The object cf it is to raise money for the purchase of new uniforms. The ball will be given at Turner Hall, and will be a yrand affair in every particular.

THE suburban parts of the city are being pretty well "skinned" by parties desirous of the sod to beautify their residences. What is known as Early's Meadow, on North Sixth street is receiving its share of attention.

WOMEN are queer, and would make strange politicians, they hold their meet ing first and then hold their caucuses, which of course makes it necessary to hold another meeting, and do all the work over again. Exactly the revers from the wav the men do it.

THE entire effects of the late Corey Barbour, eceased, were, during the week, sold at public auction by the administrator, consisting of his entire personal property from the kitchen to the stable «f horses, farming implements Sic. In tact a sweep was made and nothing was reserved.

A HOTEL register is a curiosity at all tirm s, and more so if it is an extensively patronized caravansary like the National Hou«e. It would be impossible to enumerate the number of names which have been inserted in the registers of thi.* hotel. Among them are those belonging to statesmen, artists, professional men, actors and some of the most distinguished people of the country.

IF a race horse is a "matter of course," a matter of fact is that, Chapman, on south Fourth street, is the most popular man feeder in the city, as the many customers thronging his dining hall attest, besides he sells more of his popular bakery goods than all others combined. Be sure and goto Chapman's, if hungry. His prices a^e decidedly low.—[Express.

ON Saturday a man named Waters whose business at the distillery is to turn •team into pipes, thoughtlessly dropped, the nozzle oi the hose he held in his hanci. down by his side. It caught on the inside of his boot top, and before he had shut off the steam, gave him an awtul scalding. The poor man howled with pain. When his boot was taken off the skin catrie with it.

AN* act of wanton cruelty was committed in the alley, leading "from the GAZETTE office to the postoffice this morning. Some fellows had caught a rat in a trap and as there was no dog convenient to kill it they soaked the wretched animal in coal oil and then set it on fir" The miserable rodent gnaw-ed the wirA of the trap in fearful agony and finally expired. The act was probably dene thoughtlessly, but it wfcs nerer-the-less brutal and cruel.

EXCURSION.

There will be a grand excursion and picnic, next Sunday, down to Honey Creek Grove, given by the railroad boys. The steamer Reindeer will leave the wharf, at the foot ot Walnut street, at nine o'clock A. M. precisely, and will ^rrive at the grove at ten o'clock return ing, will leave at six o'clock. Ample

Eavc

rovisions for all kinds ot amusements been made, a dancing equare, swings, &c., which are free to all excur sioni»ts. There are splendid chances for fishing in the creek, and those fond of this sport should bring their fishing tackle along.

Toute's brass and strirgband will accompany I he excursioni-ts. The tenets for the rjund trip are: adults, 50 rents, child, en, 25 cents.»

THE CEMETERY,

A Card From Mr. Osborne Deny ing a False Story.

The Facto of tlie Gate.

A city paper has criticised me for having, as it alleges, permitted Catholics to take Sowers from the cemetery and for having refused Protestants the same privilege. I have only this to say. LaBt Sunday, a week ago, April 20th, a very great nsany people visited the cemetery. There must have been nearly if not quite two thotmand people there during thf day. I noticed that mam were gathering flowers on the premises and making them int boquets, carrying them away. I tried to notify them that what they were doing was in violation of a city ordinance. So mar.y were there, and scattered all over the cemeteiy that I fcund it impossibly to state it in that way. Finally stationing myself at the gate, as people came out I notified them of the law, and requested them to leaveihe flowers there which they had unlawfully plucked, thinking in that way to prevent further infractions of the law. I did this with each and every person that came to the gate bearing flowers, and having no thought in my mipd of dcing anything except to execute the law made for my guidance. One lady, a German, apparently, by her appearance, I do not know to what church she belonged, came to the gate going out, and had in her hands two or three little flowets. I stopped her also, as I had all the others. She told me that, her mother, not being able to come to the cemetery, had asked her to bring her some flowers from the grave Oi a relative. She did not sav what relative but I presumed it was from that of her husband or a child. This lady and this one only of them all I permi'ted lo pass with the flowers, her request seeming so reasonable and the flowers she bore JO few. This lady I never saw before in my life and do not know who she is or what she is, except that she was bearing to a sick mother a memento from the grave of a dead relative of them both. All others I stopped, many of whom I knew, and some of whom I knew to be Catholics, and compelled them to give up their flowers.

The very r.ext day after this happened I saw the cnairman of the cemetery committee of the council and told them of the circumstances- On my request he authorized nie to have some ten notices painted and posted throughout the grounds reminding people ot the ordinance and cautioning them against the practice of picking flowers in the cemetery. This is what 1 did and all I did. For its truth I challenge the world. It proves the story which I am denying to be false in each and every particular, as I know it is and as everybody else can ascertain who cares to investigate the facts. What I did was in full execution of the law, and no one with reverenc for the dead or regard for the truth can say anything t® the contrary.

PATRICK OSBORNE.

FOREPAUGH

has headed toward Terre Haute. Friday will 6ee him in the city in all his splendor. He was at Louisville some time and gave the papers there excellent opportunity to learn what he was. Among othert hings the Courier-Journal of April 3rd says:

Of the circus we can write only in praise. The wardrobe and the entire paraphernalia is new, and as gliteriRg with tinsel as an Oriental dream. The riders vied with each other, each one determined to deseive and obtain the greatest amount of approbation. Robert Stickney's splendid somersault act was the acme of perfection, and was only equaled by the unexampled grace and daring of his seven-horse equestrianism. Mr. Stickney is advertised as the "best general performer in the world," and no one who witnessed his startling riding last night' doubts it. M'lles Carroll, Badeau and Miss Pauline Lee rode with the abandon of finished equestriennes. Bud. Gorman's lightning hurricane hurdle feats set everybody wild. The trapeze and aerial exercises of Millie Tournoure and Miss Miranda made everybody involuntarily hold their breath, so hazardous were the evolutions performed. The acrobatic feats of the entire gymnastic corps were astonishinglv well executed. The jesters, Messrs. &urke, Kobinson and Badeau, were fresh and happy in their sallies of v. it, and the entire company, much the largest we have ever seen in one organization, taultiess in its perilous line of specialities.

It. is marvelous how Mr. Forepaugh, with even the aid of his immense capital and life-long experience, could get together in one grand galaxy so much talent and so many rare and novel features in the menagerie catalogue. The labor to build up such an entertainment must be herculean, and the care to keep it together and to exhibit it with profit to himself certainly must be very great.

SINGULAR ACCIDENT." It is only two days since we recorded a fatal railway accident at LaFayette, and now there is another still more distress* ing, in which David Faust was killed almost instantly and James McDowell seriously injured. About 5 o'clock Monday evening an engine in charge of John Vaulcain left the LaFayette, Muncie & Bloomington shops for 1 he city and the above named with four others sat upon the front part of the engine. At the Fourth street road crossing a runaway team drawing a two horse wagon crossed the road but the wagon was (truck by the engine. Foust was thrown forward and the engine passed over him, cutting off both legs, one at the knee, the other at the thigh. He lived only ten minutes. James and Marion McDowell were also injured, James quite seriously and may be fatally, in the back, Marion receiving a severe wound on the band.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

AN INQUIRER,

Mr

Are the Phenomena of Mrs. An nie Stewart's Seance# Genuine.

A few weeks ago I addressed a letter to Mrs. Annie Stewart, resident of Ter re Haute, Indiana, written in a most respectful manner, making certain in quiries, touching the reliability of the manifestations and their infallible spiritual origin. I informed this individual 1 hat there were various parties living in 1 city w^io would make great pecun--ry sacrifices to be thoroughly convinced of their continued existence beyond the valley and shadow of death. I assured her that if full liberty would be allowed our committee to investigate the cause and origin of the phenomena, we would visit Terre Haute without any delay. I enclosed a postage stamp for replv, but no answer has ever been received.

But I have been yery fortunate in re ceiving a private communication from a citizen of Terre Haute, who has witnessed these occurrences, and who pro nounces them "unblushing frauds."

The statement is made that ropes are used to tie the hands of spectators—that musical instruments are employed to fill the room with deafening jargon, to conceal the tricks and strategems of the female operator, that every' door of opportunity is closed to any person who is unwilling to be the dupe" of deception and imposition, desires to clean away the rubbish of trickery and fraud and 6tand upon the solid bed-rock of reason and immutable truth. In my letter to Mrs. Stewart, I informed her that the citizens of Rockford had no money to squander upon the images of reflecting mirrors, or changes of wardrobe. Whenever precautions are used to defeat investigation—to limit the freedom of inquiry, or exclude tests of kind or description, you may conclude that the whole" business is a stupenduous deception and cheat. Truth, since man's first dawn of reason, began to illuminate the dark side of nature, always courted the fullest analysis and the most unlimited investigation. Error alone skulks in dark retreats and performs its hideous mimicries in secret conclaves and ambuscades. Whenever a spiritual medium interposes a single restriction to the liberty of thorough research and examination, {he evidence is conclusive and clear, that that medium was never commissioned by the absolute reason to be the prophet or the toll-gate of our immortali­

Falsehood and deception, in consternation of the light of intelligence and reacon, execute their programme when night has letdown its curtain of impenetrable darkness, and hangs its shadows around the dress-circle of spiritual disguises. It is at this favorable opportunity, that mediums and their confederates, "steal the livery of the Court of Heaven," by the imitations of angels wardrobes purchased at dry goods establishments at six cents a yard and manufactured on a patent sewing machine. The affidavits of persons who have witnessed what they have considered spiritual phenomena, are no evidence of their genuineness or their reliability. So many people are too credulous, possessing no discrimination, with a wonder-faculty excessively developed, tinctured with superstition and supernaturalism, who become selfrpsychologized in their amazement, and the frenzies of their imaginations thereby bccome externalized in space, as tangible realities. Such individuals with no positive reason, or abilities of research, ever ready to gulp (jlown the phantasmagoria of dai circles as young robins gulp down worms, are the representations of that large class, who in their hallucination and inaftuation rush to the front in the public journals, narrating experiences which lail to equal the dignity and expertnes6 of an ordinary legerdemain entertainment. We understand that Mrs. Stewart is selling "round-trip" tickets to the pearly gates of paradise for five dollars, full fare. Pluto cut under these rates somewhat by ferrying the Shades across the Styx for less than a Yankee sixpence. But what can be the particular advantage of taking a trip on thia "Celestial Railroad," with the windows of the conveyances all darkened, a female for an engineer, and the hands of the passengers bound in ropes as the hands of thieves are bound in manacles. Abridge the rights of personal freedom to investigate, as they are most effectually in the "Dark Circles" of Terre Haute, and this abridgement becomes an emphatic advertisement of transparent villainy and bold chicanery and fraud. If the phenomena at Terre Haute are reliable and genuine, what reason can be presented tor "leading captivity captive"' in tying the visitors with ropes. Is there one incontrovertible proof that Mrs. Stewart has tlVectuali opened intercourse with the inhabitants and scenery of the Unseen Universe by unbarring the gates of immortality, on golden hinges turning? Truth everywhere invites the full capabilities of reason to eliminate the dross of error. It never quails before the highest courts cf investigation. But imposition and deception are wolves which prey in the darkness. HENRY P. KIMBALL,

Rocktord, 111.

MONRO CO: GOLD.

An interesting Letter From a Terre Hautean Now at Bloomington.

He Interriews Dr. Richard Owen, Former State Geolo gist, on the Subject.

To the litor of the GAEXTZC There have been during the last few days many articles appearing in various news papers concerning the discovery of gold in Monroe and Brown counties. Since it has become a matter of so much notoriety and interest, perhaps it would not be out of place to give you a brief sketch of the actual operations and a short history of the discovery. By consulting Dr. Richard Owen, formerly our state geologist, now the professor of geology in the Indi ana State University, who once made investigations in the gold region, I learn the following facts concerning the gold deposit, its origin &C:

There is," said he "a large deposit of drift in Brown and Monroe countics, which originally came from the Lake Superior region in the early glacial period. It is composed of boulders, black sand and detritus of gold bearing quartz. The absolute quantity and size of the deposit is unknown, but there is sufficient, gold there to enable the workers in certain seasons to make wages. The origin of the drift is at least

250

miles

from these deposits, so that it appears to me that the beds will at some distant future day be exhausted. Before they can be worked successfully there is a great difficulty to overcome and that is there must be a supply of water obtained so that they can minipulate their machinery because the springs that feed the creeks in the gold reigons run dry during the greater part of the season and this means of separation of the gold from the sand &c., is lost. This separation could b« obtained by using quick silver but it is rather to expensive to use it here unless they find gold in largtr quantities than I have seen.

By consulting Captain McGee who is very familiar with this gold region 6ic. I learn that as early as 1848 gold was discovered and that about the time cf the California gold excitement a large number of miners and speculators visited the gold districts of this country and commenced operating but because of the exceedingly dry season the springs dryed up and the "Rocker"or "Cradle" instruments used in washing the gold could not be used and those parties failing to realize their great expectations left for the gold fields of California where they could obtain their desires.

There was no re excitement, said he, until the spring of

1874

when a com­

pany was formed to operate in the gold district, with a capatal of

and

$25,000.

This

amount was subscribed and over $1,800 was paid in and invested in machinery, tools &c. The president of the company was Judge J. S. Hester secretary, Captain no. McGee directors, J. C. Heetor, Wm. Tagart and Dr. Campbell. The superintendent of the company was an experienced miner named Wm, Wilson, formerly from California. The company leased land and organized legally. They found plenty of gold but because of the failure of water and the great amount of llack sand that was present they failed to realize any great profits and the project failed.

Within the last few weeks an experienced miner by«the name of O. Burns has again made the attempt to work the deposit and has so far succeeded. He has invested a lar^e gum in machinery for the purpose of separating the gold from the other detritus of quartz &c. The water having failed he has began to use quick silver which he says can be used in the operation since the gold is found in considerable quantities. Said he, in conversation last Saturday, I can and will make a success of the project. Gold is there and there is plenty of it and I can work it. Heat present has a quite large forc§ of men at work all the tune. He was in the city bst Saturday buying provisions &c. for his men. He bougnt all the quick 6ilver in the city and gave orders for more. He is most positive about his ability to develop the deposits and to make it pay from $2 to $6 per day per man. The gold region is about miles north east ot Unionville, Monroe Co,, Bloomington, the nearest railroad station, is 14 miles distant.

THE GORDON-HARRINGTON SCANDAL. The Indianapolis correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial writes as follows in regard to the Gordon-Harrington scandal.

Major Gordon announces that he has about ready hi* letter in substantiation ot his charges against fudge Harrington and wife in the recent Tate murder trail. It will be published within a few days, if he can find a paper to do it. The Major says it is a good, kind letter, and tells only facts from the court records. He has certified copies of decrees of the New York courts in the divorce suit brought by his first wife against Harrington also, of judgment in the action against him for perjury. Gordon sa}8 he did not desire to attack the woman, but he proposed to show Harrington in his tru«*. colors and to do this he had to bring in the wife. Judge, Harrington, in an interview, explains that the divorce suit was brought in New York by his first wife without notice, and after the decree of divorce to him had been rendered by the Jefferson county court and that in consequence the record of the Indiana court was not pleaded in New York, and judgment was taken against him under the circumstaflces. He has written to the attorney at Elliottsville, where the proceedings were had,'asking that the case be reopened, and he will respond to the merits of the complaint. Harrington says he does not know what more he can do as regards his relation with Gordon, but that if the latter crosses his path, it is with his life in his hand. It is impossible to say what the outcome of this affair will be, but both men appear determined to pursue their own counsel.
