Dry Goods Failure at vincennes.

SpeclaI TO tue indlanapoHs journal.
VINcENNEs, May 16-Surprise was created in
business circles to-day by the announcement of
the failure of the large dry goods firm of L. A.
Wise 81 Co. The business was turned over
to Dr. j. H. Rabb, president of the First Ma
tional Bank, under chattle mortgage held by
himself and Misses Anna and Phila Wise,
sisters of the Wise brothers of
the dry goods firm. The Liabilities of
the firm are SIG, 600. and the assets from $25 900
to $40, 900 in stock. 1t is hoped there may be
sufficient to pay creditors in full Dr.
Rabb said to-day that not over
$4,000 was owing foreign business
houses, but that this portion of the liabilities
was unsecured. The failure was caused by the
general depression in business and the fact that
business in this line in Vineennes is overdone.
This firm was always considered strong, and
kept large and frstclass stock of goods

CHICAGO BADLY BEATEN BY NEW YORK.
NEW York, May 16.-Fully 1000 persons wit
messed the fourth game between the Chicago
and New York mines, at the Polo grounds, to-day.
Young Richardson pitched for the home club.
and did excellent work Corcoran was batted
freely, and was wretchedly supported Brilliant
plays and errors were almost alike in frequency.
The blunders of the Chicago men were most
damaging. Thrice double plays caused loud
applause, and lightning line catches by Ward
and Gerhardt made the crowd yell with delight.
Cushman's decisions gave better satisfaction
than those of yesterday. but he was several
times Missed. In the fifth inning the visitors
got badly ratified, and made errors at an alarm
ing rate. The New Yorks made six runs on
four single hits The Chicagos made two runs
in the first inning on hits by Dalrymple and
Kelly, and errors by Richardson and Ester
brook. In the second inning Burns's three
Dagger and Gerhardts error gave them another.

The Athenaum says: 'The revision is a liter
airy success. There are no pretensions to schol-
arly completeness, and practically no alterations
in the text The revisers can be congratulated
on the wisdom of their decision in declining to
make new text, as the other company did with

The rush for authentic copies of the revised
Old Testament is unprecedented in England
The Pail Mall Gazette states this evening that
the London correspondent of great New York
newspaper offered $500 for simply sight of an
advance copy of the revised Old Testament at
one of the University Presses. The officers hav-
ing the printing in charge were obdurate in
refusing to accede to the correspondents re-

was authorized by his paper to spend So, 600 in
telegraphing the main features of the new
version. The first orders for the issue Of the
revision amounts to over 1000, 1000 copies.

McRaein Wisconsin,

Tue following from the Wilwau- kee (Wis.) Review, giving short history of the life of Thos. c. Me- Rae, shows that his popularity is not confined to the limits of the State:
 Hon. T. c. McRae resides at Prescott, in Nevada County, where he has pleasant and comfortable home, and is surrounded by an in teresting young family; and where, as member of tho firm of Smoote, McRae & Hinton, he has a lucra- tive law practice, and is promi- nent and influential figure in tho public affairs of his State. He was born at Mt. Holly, Union County, | Arkansas, Dec. 9th, 1851, the son of Duncan Mcleod McRae. His mothers maiden name was Mary A. Chapman. He received his lit, orary education at Falcon, Arkan- sas, and was prepared for the prac' tice of law at the Washington and Lee University at Lexington, Nir- ginia-his preceptors being Judge John w. Brockenborough and the illustrious J. Randolph Tucker.
 Returning from Lexington to Ne vada County, Arkansas, he was admitted Co the bar there in Janu- ary. 1873, few days after attaining to the age of twenty one years. Op the 17th of December, 1874, he and Miss Amelia A. White, daughter of the Clerk of the county, were married, In 1876 he was elected to tEe Legislature, and served with marked distinction in the session of 1877, of which he was the young est member. In 1880 the Demo cratic State Convention selected him to be one of the Presidential electors on the Hancock and En- g!ish ticket, and he made gallant and successful campaign for his party in his district. which district was the most hotly contested one in the State. In 1882 he was a candidate for the Democratic nom. ination for Congress from the State -at-large, but was beaten q few votes by son of the late iI- lustrious John c. Breckinridge. Two years later he was elected President of the Dem. State Con vention, and also delegate to the National Convention at Chicago, where he and his colleagues cast the full vote Of the State for Cleve- land and Hendricks, He has sev- sral times been elected Special Circuit Judge, and is at present a candidate for Congress to succeed Hon. J. K. Jones, who was recent ly elected to the United States | Senate, and with the most hope ful prospects of election.

The Italian Belle.

In lettering through Italian
 towns nothing strikes the youthful
 stranger more than the extraOrdina ry grace and beauty of the women, and he naturally desires to. express his gratitude to those who have lent a new lOveliness to life. In the North this is easy enough. "How beautiful she isl" echoes wherever small feet fall lightly on
 the pavement of any city from
 Venice to Florence, and now even
 to Rome. Dainty little ears hear the words not unkindiy, aud soft, sweet voices will sometimes argue not quite kindly as to whom they were intended for. But in Naples
 we must be silent and discrete. The nohlemen have revolvers and the lazzarcni long knives hidden away somewhere out ot sight ol the police, but yet within easy reach. Let the young nan be care tul, and, if he must give vent to an admiration too passionate to be silenced, let him draw his righ, hand down his face from the cheekbOnes to the chin. Thai means 70, how lovely she isl' ano the slower the movement is SC long as it is clearly perceptible, tho deep and lasting is the impression supposed to be indicated. Every woman be she peeress or peasant understands the sign, and will go home the happier for having seen it. Whether it was ofyore sym
 bol of worship for the old Etrus' cans, we can not tell It is cer ] tainly one ot the most sincere forms of adcration that modern Naples knows.-Saturday Review
