What J. S. Foley Has Had Done at ^v* 311 Main Street. -tjv

'.rV: FOR -\l \/1

$1.50. .1 *•*£.

"How do you like your new quarters?" .was asked of Mr. J. S. Foley, the music dealer, who has just removed from 644 Main street to 311 Main, vi "Splendidly but as you see, we are not yet fixed, though we will be in a few days and hope to have our grand, opening, to which all the publio is invited, next Saturday April 25th."

Mr. Foley then showed the reporter over the building. A hard-wood floor and a first-class elevator have been put in. All fitting of this kind was done by Clift, Williams & Co., the beautiful

apor hanging and decorations by E. Walmsley and the elaborate signwriting by Jno. W. EbeL All these names are sufficient guarantee of excellence. The first floor will be used for a salesroom, and the second will be provided with chairs—300 being necessary to fill the hall—and will be offered to the music societies and musical people as a handsome place in which to hold entertainments. This is a new departure.

A full list of the pianos and organs Mr.Foley will sell, headed by the worldfamous Chickering, is published elsewhere in the full page announcement of the opening. Mr. F. inaugurated the plan hjere of selling instruments on $5 per month payments. He has also new pianos to rent.

The GAZETTE'S advice to every one, who has not yet visited it, to go at once. It is a wonderful stock and some wonderful bargains can be had there. Remember 311 Main street.

jn Memoriam.

Died March 25 1885 in Collin county Texas, Julia. C. VanMeter. Ttia news of the untimely death of Sister VanMeter has caused great sorrow among her many friends to whom she had become endeared by her kind and genial nature, and it is with sad hearts that we now chronicle her iking away in the prime of life and usefulness, from her husband and family— Therefore be it resolved by the members of Marion Grange No. 1426, Vigo county Ind., that in respect for the deceased sister we dedicate this memorial page, and that our Chapter be draped in mourning for 80 days.

That in the death of Sister VanMeter the Grange has lost a valuable member, the husband a kind and loving compauion and the family a devoted mother.

That we extend the heartfelt sympathies of Marion Grange to Brother David C. VanMeter and family in their distant home in Texas for *the great loss they have sustained.

That we will ever cherish kind remembrances of our departed sister in her lonely grave in Texas. "Ohl loved and lost there calmly sleep,

And n3ver wake a ain to weep, Safe in the cold earth's cold embrace, Rest thou alone for a little space, An those thou loves't most shall come,

And join thee in thy peaceful home. Thy peaceful home, where every tear And every care is all forgot, Where envy, hatred, strife and fefir,

And sin and sorrow enter not" Resolved that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family, to the Terre Haute GAZETTE, and the American Grange Bulletin and that they be spread upon the records of the Grange.

Mrs. S. L. Hamilton, Mrs. F. M. Wickiser, Committee. L. H. Dickerson, jztf ost Creek Locals. 'i: [Editor GAZETTE]—The late rains and warm sunshine are carpeting the earth with green once more.—The farmers are now racking their brains to know how to make up for the loss of the wheat crop, which may make one-third of an average crop.—The writer would urge everyone to grapple with the situation and try and raise everything eatable for both man and beast.—Health in Lost Greek is only fairly good. Many families have been wrestling with the measles for the last month but as yet. with no fatal results. Frank Smith has had a hard time with them and is yet unable to leave his bed.—Mr. Horace Chamberlain is still unable to leave his bed, but it is hoped pleasant weather will bring a change for the better.—Dr. J. L. Dickerson has so far improved in health that he contemplates opening his grocery store soon.—Moody Chamberlain and H. C. Dickerson will soon have their mills running. The former will grind wheat and corn and the latter corn and feed for stock.—The premium list for the grange fair is out, ready for distribution.

The grangers feel proud

of its appearance and are thamkful for the liberal patronage in its make-up by their city friends who will be remembered for their generosity.
