THE CIGAR TRADE.-There are very
few persons who have the faintest idea
of the extent of the cigar manufactur-
ing business of this city and district.
"WheeliRg Stogics" are known through
out the length and breadth of the land.
and although this industry has been
taxed almost to death, and manufactu.
rers annoyed by contrary and conflict.
ing decisions from the Internal Revenue
Bureau,it is flourishing beyond all prece-
dent. From the books of the Assessor
we learn that there were manufactured
in this First District of West Virginia,
sixteen millions two hundred and thir-
teen thousand two hundred cigars
That is to say that our manufacturers
have furnished nearly every other man
woman aud child in the country with
"stogie".

VISITING ScHooLs.-It is the duty Of
parents to manifest some further inter.
est in the school work than merely to
send their children thither. The teach.
or wants their cooperation. The schol-
ards need the encouragement of an oc.
casional visit. If parents talk with
their children at home freely about
their schools it is we'll; if they visit
the school room occasionally, and
seem interested in making a
pleasant a thing of learning, it
is much better. The presence of the
father or mother at the cbild's recita-
ton once week, or once month, will
have salutary influence on both teach
er and child. Even the parent will be
benefited. His or her attention will be
awakened to questions which might
otherwise 60 unthought Of for years,
and which have practical bearings on
the mind.

BRIDAL GIFTS.-We were shown yes.
terday at the store of w. E. Hennegen
& Co., No. 1O4 Main street, several mag
nifcent bridal sets, of solid silver ware
from the celebrated Whitney Manufsc :
turing Company, of New York. The
designs are all unique sand beautiful,
and either of antique or medallion pat
terms. One coffee set struck US as being
handsome. The stems OF
the spoons are octagon. and the upper
end, or handle, of a Roman pattern. For
q newly married pair, or for q silver
wedding, nothing could be more appro-
pirate or acceptable. Besides this silver
ware an immense stock Of fashionable
jewelry, gold and silver American, Eng.
lish, French and Swiss watches, statu
etts, plated ware and the like can be
found at this establishment.

NEWCOMERS MINsTRELs.-This excel
emit troupe fully sustained its ancient
reputation last night before an immense
audience. We were pleased to see our
old acquaintance j. T. Gulick in his
accustomed place. Jim is the best
middle man" in the country, and We
bar none. Besides him there are Dave
Wilson, the champion bonist, and john
son and Robinson and host of others,
who are, either of them, cork opera
in themselves. The music was splendid
The ballad "My Minnie's Grave" sang
by Calico, was the sweetest we have
heard for many day. But the biggest
thing of the evening is the wonderful
Chang Woo Cow, the Chinese Giant.
This wonder is eight feet two inches in
height and weighs between 300 and 400
pounds. He is finely proportioued. A
man of six feet can stand under his arm.
His wife is a rather pretty looking
Mongol, five feet seven and a nan
inches in height, though beside her huge
lord she locks like baby. A sight at
these people is worth the price of ad-
mission alone.
There will be Chang levee this af-
ternoop, at which a great number OF
Chinese curiosities will be exhibited.
Persons purchasing tickets to tho night
are admitted in the after
noon free of charge. Children are
charged twenty-five cents to the levee.
We advise all who can to see this
wonderful Chang. He claimsto be the
tallest Freemason in the world, and is
an oddly in his way. His broken Eng
lish, or broken China, which ever it may
be, is amusing. At GAINESVILLE he was
taking his dinner, and when asked
whet he would eat, replied, "Mee takee
small turkey" instead of small piece
of Turkey. He looks as if he could
make big turkey sick.
Reserved seats can be secured at the
Hall from 10 a. m. to 2 p. m.

NEGLIGESCE IN STAMPING LETTERS
The number of letters daily dropped in
to the postoffice boxes without postage
stamps attached to them indicates a
great amount of carelessness upon the
part of the persons mailing such let
tiers. Except in cases where business
card is on the envelope Tin which case
the letter is returned to the writer at
once) these letters are sent to the dead
letter Office. OF course the postoffice
comes in for good share of blame if
the senders of such letters fail to receive
prompt replies to the same, little think
ing that they themselves are the sole
offenders in such cases. 1t is matter
of some ssrprise, too, that business men
are more addict,d to this careless habit
than any other class of people.
While upon this subject we will make
mention of another matter about which
many persons seem to be ignorant, al
though the newspapers have pretty
generally explained it already. We
refer to the matter of forwarding letters
Many persons suppose that, after nav
ing received a letter addressed to some
friend or acquaintance, all they have to
do to make it reach the person (who
has left the city in the meantime) is to
change the address merely and drop it
in the post office. Now the Post Office
Department has decided that all letters
intended to be forwarded must, after
having passed from the custody of the
post Office, be prepaid by postage stamps
in the same manner as though the let
tsrs had never been in the mail. If
they are not so prepaid they are held
for postage and sent to the dead letter
Office as unpaid matter.

A NARROW EsCAPE.-On Saturday, as
the funeral procession of Odd Fellows
and Red Men were escorting the remains
of Mr.. Eberling, of Benwood, to the
cemetery, and when near Boggs' run,
the horses attached to Grover g. Baker
sewing machine wagon became fright
ened at the band and ran away. In the
wagon were the agent fer the machines,
Rev. Mr.. Hobbs, of the NJ. E. Church,
aud two sewing machines. The horses,
blinded with fright, ran over the bank,
smashing the wagon and machines all
to pieces. The two gentlemen, fortu-
nately, escaped unhurt.
