MIR. HENRY Apply, the world renowned
Violinist's concert is on Thursday even
ing, under the auspices of the Wheeling
Library Association. ''~S-~'--
The subject Of this sketch was the ED
est son OF John Apply, solo violinist TO
King William the First, oil Holland, and
was born ut the Hague, in that kingdom,
in 1928. Hc commenced his musical
studies at the age OF u, and during one
years tuition from his father, he made
such rapid progress that he was pro-
nounced a musical genius. At the solici'
tatiop OF many prominent amateurs, he
gave a concert which met with great sue
cess, and his fame spread through the city
as wonderful performer upon the violin.
The King sent for him and he had the
honor of playing before His Majesty in the
palace. Just as he had completed his ar.
rangements to go to Paris, histather died,
and upon him then devolYed the support
of his mother, SITTER and younger brothers.
He Immediately arranged series OF con-
certs in Amsterdam and other cities,
which proving successful, were extended
through Belgium, Germany and France;
In 1913 he returned to the Hague and had
the honor of playing in three concerts at
the palace before King William the Sec.
ond, who presented him with Gold
Medal and appointed him solo violinlst
In 1850, I'M company with Mile. Bertha
Johanssen, he gave large number OF con-
Certs through Holland. While performing
in Amsterdam he made the acquaintance
oil o number of American merchants, ship
owners, etc, who strongly urged him to
visit the United States. Acting upon their
advice, he sailed for New York as guest
of one OF the ship owners, where he ar
rived in October, 1851, and gave several
concerts, meeting with success. He per
formed with the Philharmonic Society,
and shortly after made tour Of the coun'
try with Mime BisCaccianti. On his re.
turn to New York, he was engaged for the
Jenny Lind farewell concerts, Of which he
was a marked feature. He afterwards

parties, under the management of Maurice
Strakosch, winning golden opinions
wherever he appeared.

BEAUTIFUL FLAG.-The Flag to be
voted for at the Fair and Festival given
by the ladies Of the I'd Presbyterian
Church at Washington Hall, on Wednes-
day evening next, Is said by those who
arc Judges oil such matters to be an I'm.
usually fine one. The material used and
the workmanship are Of the best quality
anil much letter than those usually man.
tiiactured for sale. The trimmings were
procured from one OF the largest and finest
military furnishing houses in this country.
We understand there Is considerable feel

Nor TRUE.-It Is not true as repre-.
scented by certain parties both in and out
Of the medical profession, We are assured,
that 1t is designed to compel all who may
contract smallpox, Asiatic cholera or
kindred diseases, to be removed TO
"Grand View Hospital when erected,
Only those who cannot have equal com.
forts, careful nursing and skillful medical
treatment where they usually reside
will be taken there. Strangers, and
others who have no permanent
home here, VIC doubt not, will COM
pose by lar the largest number Of those
who will bo sent to that benefcent institu-
ton. It's certainly due these classes that
some provision for their comfort should be
made when stricken down in our midst
with the diseases mentioned. The idea
that the Hospital Is tobe o sort of "bonded
warehouse" Is u shocking one, and could
only have had its origin in a mind not
having ordinary human Senslbllitles.

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the folliCles are de.
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
dccaycd; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimn-
lated into activity, SO that q new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
Of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration Of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruf; which is often so un-
clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for q HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can DO found SO desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long, the hair, giving it . rich, glossy
lustre, and o grateful perfume.
