THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1885.

A CERTAIN Omaha woman has a picture which she prizes very highly. It is a group formed of herself and her three husbands. She is evidently a good judge of human nature, and in her husband-hunting secured three of the most amiable specimens of the genus homo to be found on top of the ground. Their amiability is displayed in the fact that although two of them had been divorced they kindly consented to sit for the group, and the man whom the woman at present acknowledges as lord and master was amiable enough to sit with them.

A PITTSBURG judge has set an example which other judges would do well to imitate. When a convicted robber was brought before the court for sentence the judge asked if he had anything to say for himself, and the guilty man pleaded that he was drunk when he committed the robber)'. "Well," replied the judge, "I had in tended to give you two years, but as you say you confess to being drunk when the crime was committed, I will add sis months more to your sentence." And he did. When it comes to be understood that drunkenness is an aggra vation and not an extenuation of crime lawless characters will quit filling them selves with whisky as a stimulaut to deeds of desperation.

SEVERAL Chinese officials are out at Rock Springs, Wyoming, investigating the recent outrages on Chinese miners. They have oxhumed several bodies of the murdered Chinamen and found their skulls cracked, showing that they were beaten at close quarters. Another fact has been disclosed by their investigation, and that is that not a single American born citizen participated in the attack on tho Chinamen, but that the men who clamored so loudly about the Chinamen and murdered them to make them leave tho country were themselves foreigners, here on invita-» tion, so to speak, as guests and hardly qualified to raise a racket over the other guests present. The government has been called on by the railroad company which owns the mines and by the Chinese officials, whose inoffensive countrymen have been killed, to punish the murderers and protect tho property. It should lay its heavy hand on these murderers in away to make the offense of which they are guilty odious.

In the meantime the Knights of Labor Lave arrogated to themselves the right to determine who shall and who shall not live and work in the west and have issued a proclamation declaring the presence of Chinamen detrimental to the country and that they must go. It is really quite refreshing to have an organization ready and willing to take the trouble of running this country and to relieve tho people at large of ail care and responsibility in the matter.

EX-UNITED STATES MARSHAL LOT WRIGHT, of Cincinnati, meeting Gen. Durbin Ward on the cars, and incensed because of a scathing criticism of his conduct as United States Marshal by Ward in a meeting at Lebanon, O., struck him in the eye, and before a retaliatory blow could be struck the crowd interfered. What Ward said we do not know, but the severest criticism he could have made on this unmitigated scoundrel would have been to read extracts from tho report of the Congressional committee which investigated his infamous practices.

PAYMASTER GENERAL SMITH of the Navy is strenuously striving by means of two lawyers and a score of technicalities to stop that court martial which has been ordered by Secretary Whitney to try him for numerous irregularities. He practically admits the irregula.'ities but denies his amenability for .them. Is there an honest citizen in this broad land who can place his hand upon his heart and deny that it was a good thing for the country and for rectitude and economy and reform that Wm. E. Chandler, Roach's silent, partner, was relegat ed to private life?

PROF. SULLIVAN strikes out once more from the jaw with his reiterated assertion of the folly of any one pretending to be able to whip him. It would be a great relief if out of the womb of time some stalwart son of bone and brawn should come and whip this insolent bully withiu an inch of his life. And it wouldn't make much difference which side of tho life line the inch was measured. But then in all probability we should have on our hands a bully as much tougher than John as he was stronger.

P. S.—In view of the fact that Professor Sullivan is to be here next Saturday and may be more or less exhilerated there being a distillery and a brewery in town, the GAZETTE desires to say that it has always entertained a high regard for the Professor and considers him a perfect gentleman.

A writer in the American Magazine of History traces the origin of the common American abbreviation "O. K." to the Choctaw language. The Choctaw. Indians have a word "oke," which is pronounced exactly as the English letters ok and which means It is correct: it is true. The word is found inByington's Choctaw New Testament and is there used to mean It is so. Gen. Andrew Jackson was the first person to introduce the Choctaw word into our Anglo-American speech. The Whigs used to say when Gen. Jackson indorsed applications for office with the letters O. K. that these letters were seriously intended by him as abbreviations for "Oil Korrect."

THE difficulty of judging a horse by its looks is illustrated by a story told of Goldsmith Maid. A few years ago, when she was at the height of her glory, the Maid was taken from her quarters in Philadelphia, and, for a joke, was led through aback street to a public place and put up at auction. The spectators not knowing where the mare came from or auything about the joke bid on her in good faith until the price was run up to $34, when some one connected with the stable bid $35, the hammer fell and she was led away.

KING ALFONSO, of Spain, is said to be sick. Small wonder will be excited by this news. The wonder is how his poor little head, with all the worry he has had, hasn't split wide open. This thing of going to bed at night in a condition of uncertainty as to whether the morrow's sun will see him a king or in kingdom come or perhaps a tramp, is calculated to make a person sick.

From,

The friends and relatives of Uncle Jonathan and Aunt Sallie Frakes very agreeably surprised them the 15th. It was talked of for quite a while by their friends and the 15th of September was E greed on in honor of each of their birthdays that being between both days. Uncle Jonathan was born in Franklin Co. Iud., Sept. 13, 1811, consequently now being 74 years of age. He is the oldest man in Prairie Creek township, the township in which he resides. Noticeable fact is that he was born in this state and has never lived in any other. Aunt Sallie was born in Christian Co., Ohio, Sept. 19th, 1812.

Her father moved to this state when she was five years of age and she has never been farther than Terre Haute, 14 miles distance, since that time.

At about ten o'clock people might have been seen coming in each direction so thick that it looked like a delegation going to a picnic. When the crowd was thought to be there they all repaired to a grove close by where a table had been prepared, some 100 feet long. The older persons, numbering over 50 and ranging in age from 50 to 76, were first seated at the table. To say that the table looked nice would not be doing it justice. It was laden with all the dainties and good things that culinary department could produce and if any one did not do justice to them your scribe failed to take notice of the fact. After dinner they all scattered around over the grove, the older ones to smoke and chat of old times, the younger ones to enjoy themselves as they chose while some of the young men and boys were dispatched to a neighbor's watermelon patch close by. In due time the watermelons arriving all wishing watermelon partook to their heart's content, after which they Vere all called to order and Mrs. Eliza Bailey in a very nice and" appropriate speech presented them in the name of their friends a nice and good rag carpet. The carpet was woven by Mrs. Eliza Bailey, the chain and rags furnished by friends. After this James Cutsinger in a short speech presented them in behalf of their children two elegant rocking chairs. Others then come forward and gave them presents too numerous to mention. The crowd was then dismissed and a number come forward wishing them many more happy and enjoyable days as they hoped they had spent that day.

Tho crowd then began to disperse for their homes. T. A. L.

Marshall's Chance for the Soldiers' Home The Illinois Soldiers' Home committee have notified the city committee at Marshall, that that town is one of the seven cities from which the bite will be chosen. A plat of the place recommended is required, with the price, and a check for §5u0, to be forfeited in case the owner would refuse to sell the land if chosen. Marshall is delighted over the prospect.

time to time hanging is ob­

jected to as a brutal way of executing murderers condemned to death. Inasmuch, however, as hanging is the method of making way with themselves adopted by the larger portion of suicides, who are supposed to consult their own preferences in the matter, it would •eem as if this style of execution was still very decidedly in fashion. .••••.

DURING the past six months there have been 46 suicides in Indiana as against 59 for the corresponding period last year.

Surprise Dinner."

THE PARNELL FUND.

An Excellent Entertainment Given Last Night—Resolutions of Confidence in Par nell Adopted.

From Monday's daily.

The entertainment given by the Irish National League for the benefit of the Parnell fund at Occidental Hall last night was a great success in every particular. There was a very large audience present which showed its appreciation of the entertainment. The exercises were opened by J. H. Allen, who delivered a short address, stating the object of the meeting was to obtain funds for, and an endorsement of the action of Chas. Stewart Parnell, who is working in Ireland for parliamentary supremacy. Misses B. Metzger and N. Johnson followed with a very pretty piano duett. Miss Maggie Lynch excellently delivered a recitation. Col- R. N. Hudson delivered a stirring address which was frequently interrupted by enthusiastic applause. The speaker said that when he first addressed the Irishmen of this city he was informed that it was a dangerous thing to do and he even received a communication threatening his life if he addressed them. That was four years ago and ever since that time organizations have been formed all over the United States. The next highest officer in the United States, Vice-President Hendricks, has shown himself to be an honest American and Col. Hudson said he endorsed all his sentiments. We are 4,000 miles from Ireland, the place where the^-peo-ple are struggling to be free. God made all men free and why should man make them slaves? Independence now and forever. Irishmen simply ask that they may help make the lays under which they live. Any man who throws any impediment in the way of the Irishman's cause is not an American. Let us give them aid and comfort and, if necessary, fight for them. The Irishmen are nearer their freedom than ever before. We want free lands and the abolition of the present laws, which prevents a poor man from having an acre of land. The House of Commons and House of Lords must be changed.

A solo, "Kerry Dance," was' beautifully rendered by Miss A. Hegarty. Master J. F. Hanley, son of John Hanley, read an essay which was loudly applauded. About thirty girls beautifully sang "Shaking of Hands." Miss Lulu Filbeck recited "The Last Hymn," which was followed by a song by Misses Metzer and Johnson. The Irishman's Panorama," by Miss M. Prindible was well recited. Misses Kintz, K. and E. Connelly rendered a vocal trio which was followed by a recitation by George Mahare, who responded to the enthusiastic encore by reciting "Brother Watkms." A recitation was given by Miss H. Hegarty. The vocal solo by Chas. Gould was encored. A song by Misses Murphy, Metzer and Johnson, and a speech by Master C. Reilly, and declamations by Masters W. S. Hanley and D. Mullen were all well given.

A committee was appointed to draft resolutions of confidence and submitted the following:

Where as, Believing that government exercises a great influence, for good or evil over the social condition of a people—that a good government (a government adapted to their degree of civilization, and of their own ordering) makes a loyal, prosperous, law-abiding people and a bad government (an alien and inharmonious government) makes a disloyal, poor and law-evading people therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Irish National League of Torre Haute avow it as a cardinal principle that any people possessing the elements of a distinct nationality and capable of administering local self government, be it good or bad in the eyes of the, world shouldjbe aided andencouraged to establish for themselve and shape to their own needs their own political institutions and that we make this avowal as citizens of a free Republic, based on the principle of local-self government.

Resolved, That the Irish people, possessing all the elements of distinct, nationality

(a9

«. «, j» -tirs WV rf* U, it A

shown by seven hundred

years of successful effort to resist submergement by a stronger nation) should be encouraged and aided to organize for themselves their own local government.

Resolved, that the Irish Parliamentary party deserve the thanks of Irishmen the world over for their fidelity to the cause of their Buffering country men, and the sympathy and encouragement of all lovers of republican institutions for the advances they have made towards the establishment of local-self government for Ireland.

Resolved, that we indorse the course pursued by Charles Stewart Parnell during the entire turn of his leadership of that little party that is laboring so ardently and faithfully to ameliorate the hard condition of their country men that we regard him as a wise, intrepid, yet moderate commander and that we will aid him to the full extent of our ability to repent the hateful "Act ofU nion" which has yoked Ireland so long to the British gown.

^'ASSIGNMENT.

lr

Jno. Wolfe's Statement.

Jno. Wolfe, the hardwate dealer, who made an assignment to James Cox Saturday states that his liabilities are about as follows: To Terre Haute Savings Bank... $ 800 This note is secured by James M.

7

To other Terre Haute parties for borrowed money 1,200 To eastern creditors for goods... 1,500

Total $3,500 He thinks his stock and property will invoice considerably more than this if he is not compelled to sacrifice. He states the causes of his failure to be the fact that Mr. Lyons' overdrew his account $1,000 while building a house in the east, and to the fact that his stock was shipped considerably ahead of the time ordered and the bills coming due now after a dull summer he was unable to meet them. Finding that creditors would not extend the time he made an assignment to protect them all alike and his uncle, Mr. Nurnberger, who is an endorser for him.

John Wolf is a most hardworking and deserving young man. He commenced clerking for Mr. James M. Lyons in 1868 and in 1876 he and Sam'l Lyon bought the stock for $3,000. A year and-a-half later Mr. J. M. Lyons bought back tho interest of Sam'l Lyons and held it until about a year and-a-half ago.

The store is open and running with Wolfe in charge.

.Donaldson, the Crank.

Night before last Donaldson, of Shelby ville, the crank who was going to preach Grant's funeral sermon, was in theoity again. His dress was more comical than ever. He wore a white plug hat with a large card in the front which read: "Donaldson, the Great.* Candidate for President in 1888."

He had flags and mosquito barring of many colors wrapped around him. A linen duster which he wore was set off by a red shirt worn over it. With hm he had two bags of rocks, it is supposed to make an impression on the publio, a valise, an umbrello and a torch and carried two large flags in his hands. He is still in the city but will be sent home today. ,:i

Breach of Contract Suit.

5

Hal A. Harvey has brought suit in the Superior court against Samuel Broadhurst for breach of promise. The plaintiff set forth that on the 14th of November, then seventeen years of age, he agreed to work for defendant on his farm until November 14th, 1884, when he would become of age. The defendant agreed to give plaintiff a good education and furnish clothing, washing, board and lodging and at the expiration of the four years to give him a good horse, saddle and bridle. The plaintiff claims that ne filled his part of the contract but the defendant did not. The plaintiff claims damages to the amount of $800.

THEY FAINTED.

MODESTY FORBIDS. I could afford to have one full page of this paper printed in red, but modesty forbids. R. M. HARRISON.

BATTLE OF THE BUGGY. The war is ofer and the victory is mine! I have nothing but sympathy for a vanquished foe.

Respectfully, R. M. HARRISON.

WHO WAS IT.

Who was it that took every premium offered in the carriage display? Why, R. M. Harrison. His was a cyclone victory, and you can just put it in your pipe and smoke it! Do you hear?.j

GRATEFUL.

I? Mr. R. M. Harrison's victory was not only awarded him by the judges, but by the people who saw his work and gave it their unqualified approval far above any other work in the hall for which he feels extremely grateful.

THE EVIDENCE IS ALL IN. The victory achieved by R. M. Harrison in taking all first premiums on goods entered for competition is no exception, as this is the third year in succession that he has taken every premium where he had work in competition. Is this not sufficient evidence of the superior quality of his vehicles.

AN T7\r PARTIAL AWARD. The coi!j)Mif''i of award in tho carriage department cannot be accused of partiality this oar, as was done last season, for they were entire strangers to Mr. R. M. Harrison, and besides that the owners of the vehicles were excluded from the ball during the inspection of the work and neither of the parties owning work there knew who the committee were to be not before they came into the hall to pass judgement on the goods. The majority of the committee were practical carriage makers, which makes Harrison's victory that much more perfect.

AN INTERESTING EVENT.

The Captured Colors ot the 57th Indiana Volunteers, to be Returned to Them at Kokomo, on .the v, 23rd.

At the battle of Franklin, Tenn., in 1864, the color bearer of the 57th Indiana Volunteers, was shot down and the flag of the regiment ftas captured by the rebels. Reoently at a Confederate reunion at Clerburne, Texas, this flag was entrusted to the hands of W. J. Wylie, Commander of that Department of G. A. R., with instructions to transmit it to the Department Commander of Indiana, to be by him returned to the survivors of the regiment. The 57th holds its reunion at Kokomo on the 22d and 23d of this month, and on that occasion they will be presented with their long lost flag, which they bore with them through many a hard fought battle. The occasion will be a very impressive one. The colors left Texas on Saturday under escort of a committee of ten, appointed by the Department Commander, the Governor of the state, and the Mayor of the city of Dallas, Cor-

8onfederate

oral Crook, of the 13th Tennessee Infantry, who captured and has had possession of the flag, is one of the party. The colors will be returned at 10 o'clock on the morning of the 23d. Exercises will consist of a presentation address by the Commander of Texas response by D. N. Foster, Commander of Indiana, who will then present the flag to the surviving members of the regiment. Hon. Stanton J. Peelle, of Indianapolis, will respond on behalf of the regiment. Gov. Gray will appoint some person to represent the civil authorities of the state upon this interesting occasion.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT, v,

He was walking down the track when ho saw No 4,the limited, coming. He stepped down to the side of the track to wait for the train to pass when a chunk of coal weighing about ten pounds fell from the tank of the engine and struck him OD the head. It is supposed that his skull is fraetured. Dr. Jenkins is attending him and thinks his recovery doubtful. He was brought to this city and this morning he was taken to St. Anthony's Hespital. At last reports he was no better.

Things Worth Knowing.

That Allcock's are the only genuine porous plasters. That all other so-called porous plasters are imitations.

That their makers only get them up to sell on the reputation of Allcock's. That all so-called improvements and new ingredients are humbugs.

That no one has ever made an improvement on AUcock's Porous Plasters.

That when you buy AUcock's Porous Plasters you obtain the best plasters made.
