THE SUPREME COURT BENCH.

Bradley to Retire, Provided a Republican is Appointed. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 28.—Tho re tirement of astice Bradley, of the Supreme Court, depends entirtly upon his own free will. He is a very ardent partisan, and would hold on until death rather than resign his position to a Democrat. He is quite well advanced in life and it is feared that if he does not resign this winter the chance of a Republican getting in the place would be very slight indeed. In the first place, Judge Bradley might not live through one Democratic administration, and there is no certainty,if he did,that the oountry.would at that time be willing to restore the Rapublicans to power. 80 it is generally agreed that the Justice is to ask for retirement sometime during tbe winter, so as to give th appointment of his successor to Mr. Arthur. It is now understood that Mr. Bradley will ask to be retired early in January. There are a number of men who are very anxious for the place and are doing all they can to secure the pi

He was originally presented to the attention of the President by David Davie* Mr. Davis has always had much influence with the President. When Bradley retires Judge Gresbam will be tbe mo6t prominent among those who will be considered by the President. There is another reason that will act in tbe ^avoP of the Judge with the Presidents Mr. Arthur believes Mr. Blaine may have some chance or hope of secur-. ing tbe nomination of his party four years from now. The plaolng of Gresham upon the Supreme baBch would give him such prominence as to materially strengthen an adverse element to Mr. Blaiae.

Continaatioi of the Baildiog Article From Last Saturday's Gazette,

Interviews With Prominent Builders --Their Opinion of the Season —TIs Work They Haw

Done.

All Honor to the Building and Loan Associations—Large Number of Small Houses Erected by Their

Aid.

The Court House—Government Building—The New Distillery—A New Planing Mill—Notes.

In last Saturday's Qawstsm was printed an article on the building season just passed, giving extensive figures and estimates of the years work. The following ic a continuation of this article and will be found particularly interesting as detailing the work done this year by the principal builders, and with thek opinions on the season's work.'

Tbe Coart House.

Architect Hannaford, of Cincinnati, was here last week and expressed himself as highly pleased with the progress which is being made on the new Court Honae. To his gratification, his expectations have been much exceeded. This fine weather has enabled the workmen to continue several weeks later than was expected. The building will t»o under roof by next summer.

The Government Building.

The average tax-payer feels more comfort in inspecting the new government building—or the place where it will be—than the court house, from the fact that the expense of the former is shared by 50 millions of people besides himself, while tbe new court house causes him to feel considerably deeper into his pockets. Regarded in this light the goverment building is the most welcome of all the improvements which the city has acquired the l&st year.

The composition foundation has all been laid, and early in the spring the stone work will begin. The contract for the latter was let on Nov. 1st to a Chicago firm.

Tbe Distillery.

It is a fact, that the most disastrous fires which have visited this eity have ultimately resulted in good. This has proved particularly so this year. The destruction of Clift, Williams A Oo.'s planiDg mill was followed by the immediate erection of the handsome brick Structure which now stands in its place. The burning of the distillery might have proved a great loss to the city, bat Fairbanks and Duenweg have erected in its stead a fine biick building, one ot the finest and most imposing in the city. It has just been completed this week, and work was resumed last Wednesday.

Tbe Close Paper Hill.

As before remarked, the Close Paper Mill really belongs to Terre Haute( though situated a little distance outside foreanitaiy purposes. The mil* was erected this snmmer at A cost of nearly $100,0CQ, tnd ia now in working order *n.« may be numbered among our pnnaipal manufactories.

A New Plaolng Mill.

Unknown to the most of our citisens, the erection of anew planing mill has been industriously progressing in the south part of the city, all summer and fall. Messrs. Temple and Robertson are building the Vigo Planing mill on SDUth Ninth street, just above Poplar street. It will aoon be completed.

*T, \i Avenue Flouring Mills. Wright L. Kidder & Sens have greatly improved the Avenue Flouring Mills, both in the building itself and the machinery. A capacity oi 450 barrels per day has been reached, making it the second largest in the city. The mills are now running night and day, and finding a good market for their flour.

Tbe Street Railway,

Our citizens have cause to felicitate themselves over the energy and enterprise ot the new management of the 8treet Railway Company. After years of promises, it is an agreeable surprise to see the work of extending

Lthe

lines ac

tually under way and progressing with rapidity. A large force i* now at work on south Third street, building the line from Main street to Strawberry Hill. Wilson street haa already beea reached and the remainder will be finished and in running order before tbe end of the coming week. it is also proposed—and more faith is now attached to the company's intentions than formerly—to extend the Ma'n street line to the Fair Grounds, or to the Orphans Home, at least, in the spring. This intention is not so clearly defined however, as that *o extend the north Sixth street line to Collett Park, on Lafayette street to Seventh, sad on Seventh to the park.

Much credit for this change in the policy of the company, belongs to Superintendent Sshreiner, who came here from Indianapolis a few weeks ago to take charge, and has been ever siDcie, industriously "whooping up" things.

Clift, William & Co.

Mr. Clift, of Clift, Williams & Con said that business had been good this year. In fact, he believed it had paid better than any other branch of business this year. The credit for this was due, he said, almost entirely to the

.ip®

vmamn awd LOA.

Although he knew of some very hand some residences which had been built by the aid of these valuable aseoeiations, yet a very great number of small houses had been erected by poor people entirely out of their savings in the Building and Loan associations. Their value to a common wealth and to indiviual citizens, could not bo overestimated.

Mr. Clift furnished the following list of tbe principal buildinga which the firm had put up this year:

Bloek of three store rooms for Demas Deming, corner of Fifth and Ohio. Residence south Fifth street for J. 1 Hager.

Residence en north Buth street, for Mies Logan. Remodel of residence for W. P. IJams.

Remodel of residence for Col. R. W. Thompson. Residence 00 ChesHiut street, for W E. Toung.

Besidenoe on Chestnut street for J. T. Mattox. Residence for GL Lawrence, en Third Avenue.

And last, but not least) their owa NB1V PLABINQ UU. On Ihe lOlh of last July, their old planing mill, a frame structure, was burned to the ground. With cutracieristic activity the firm declared that they would have anew planiDg mill in it's place and running within 60 days. The present mill is of brick and a much finer building than the old one. The new mill scat about $20,000.

Architect Floyi.

Mr. Floyd said the season had been good, and at least equal to that of tbe previous year, but probably better. is very dull this fall however.

During the season, very many small houses have been built on the outskirts of the town, and directly under the auspices of tbe Building and Loan associations, which Mr. Floyd praised highly for the work which tbey have done.

Mr. Floyd said be had built the following houses during the season: Residence for Dr. Pence, corner of Second and Ohio, of which a full description was given in the QAZBTTK a few weeks ago.

Residence for Mrs. J. H. O'Boyle on south Fifth street, which was the weddiug present to her daughter, Mrs. Geo. Allen.

Residence for Dr. Weinstein, corner of Sixth and Chestnut. Residence for W. F. Arnold, on south Sixth street.

Besides these, Mr. Floyd drew tbe plans for tbe following buildings, erected 1 by other firms:

Residence of W. A Gleason, corner of Oak and Ninth stroets. Block on Fourth and Ohio, for Patton Bros.

Residence on north Seventh •street, for J. T. H. Miller. Residence for Hon. John S. bamb, on south Sixth street.

A. Courtoer 4 Son.

Oourtner & Soa .have done some excellent jobs this year. The fine block of J. 8. Beach's, on the corner of bixth and Ohio, occupied by J. B. Somes' drug store, is a handsome building. Its cost was $7,000. St. Stephen's rectory, al?o built by them, is one of the nicest residences which have gone up this season. Its peculiar style of architecture is suggestive ot the old English houses, rarely seen in this country, however, its cost was $7,000. The firm also built W. A. Gleason's residence and store-room on Ninth and Oak, which cost about $5,500. Mr H, P. Courtner's new residence on south Center street is now in process of erection. Courtner A Son built a nua Der of scalier bouses also.

Motes.

Terre Haute is fast becoming one of the finest looking eities in the west. Some humble citisea took cut a permit to build a residence, estimated cost being $58.

The new Court House and the Government Building will give a metropolitan air to our city.

The building ot the new wharf at the river at the loot ot Walnut street is an improvement long needed.

Dan Hirzel built a fine residence for Mr. Bauermeisttr, of Bauermei9ter & Bush, on the corner of Fifth and Chestnut.

Kinta Bros., bciit Thomas' new residence on Eagle street, as well as Constantine Johnson's on Fourth and Park streets. Mr. Floyd drew the plans tor the latter.

It is to be hoped that the erection of the new Court House will result in the rebuilding ot the west side of the square It needs it bad.

J. H. Briggs has an elegant new resi deuce on the corner or Sixth and Mul berry streets. It was built by his fellow councilman, J. H. Wimer.

Oliver & Williams erected a fine block of five brick tenement houses on Mulberry street between Fifth and Sixth. They own the block themselves.

Jacob Kimble built Mrs. Ludowici's residence on Park and Sixth and a-half street. Also John £. Lamb's new resi dence on south Sixth. Thos. Godeey'e floe residence on Second and Walnut* is also his building.

It will appear somewhat extraordinary that a man can build five two-story briek residences, and very nice ones at that, for $4,600, or $900 apiece. Yet the estimates given the city elerk on such a contract would indicate that this is a fact.

Sere Enoagb.

From the French: Two gentlemen are walking up the street engaged in a lively conversation. "Since you have some notion of marrying," said one, why don't you take Marguerite, your sister's charmiag friend? She is an angel." "J. don't dispute that bat she paints." "Oh, come now, my dear fellow, honestly, have you ever seeh an angel who was not painted

Hornet Nests.

Judge Wm. Maok has reoeived from a friend in Green County, two very large hornet nests, which, during the summer season, must have housed large colonies of hornets. Specimens of hornet architecture and doubtleeswere the pride of their builders and occupants and the envy of all bugs and bees and flying ereatares less handsomely housed.

The President's Wives.

Mew Tork Graphic: President Harrison died in office before his wife had come to Washington.

Martha Bkelton, the beautiful wife of the redheaded and freckled Jeffeteon, had been dead nineteen years before her husband was elected.

Hannah Boes, the consort o" the tnwrv Van Buren, lay in her grave seventeen years before President Jackson made him his successor.

President Arthur is the ssme age that President Tyler was when he married Miss Julia Gardner during the last year of his Presidential term. He wss 94 years of age end she less than 20.

Rachel Donelson, the wife of the hotheaded but courtly General Jsckson, had her dresses made to take her place as mistress of the Executive Mansion, but died three months before Old Hickory was inaugurated.

President Arthur Is ihe exaot age Mark Anthony was when he beeaaae enamored of Cleopatra, and, strange as it may be, the dusky queen was the si me age as Miss Frclinghuysen, the President's fiancee, when she killed herself.

President Arthur's first wife will have been buried five years next Januarv. She was married to him in St. John's Church, Washington, which he now attends, and where be has placed a window to her memory. He occupies the same pew she sat in when she was a little girl.

The President's wives now living are Mrs. Polk at Nashville, Mrs. John Tyler st Richmond, Mrs. Grant in New Jersey, Mrs. Hayes in Fremont, and Mrs. Garfield in Cleveland. Of these tbe widows, Mrs. Polk, Mrs. Tyler and Mrs. Garfield, draw from the Government pensions of $5,000 a year eaeh.

LIEUTENANT E6GLEST0H.

He Has a Brush With tbe fadiaas. GALVESTON, NOV. 21.—The News Sea Antonio special says: "Lieutenant Iggleston, who was ordered in pursuit of the Apaohes who raided Presidio county, to-night telegraphed the result of his scouting to General Stanley. Farmer Petty was shot three times in tbe head, ani his wife had been outraged and murdered. Three children "were found butchered. The Indians were trailed to were they crossed the Rio Graade into Mexico. Eggleston gave op the pursuit at the river, as the reciprocal treaty for the crossing of troops has expired. Eggleston believes that if he could take up the trail on the Mexican side he could overtake the Indians jn five days. General Stanley has written tb tbe authorities at Washington urging an immediate renewal of the reciprocal convention with Mexico. [Lieutenant Egg'eston is nephew of Hon. Wm. Eggleston of this city, and is himself remembered here and*in this vicinity, haviog been appointed to West Point from Newport, Vermillion county, Ind.—[ED. GAZ.}
