TaE New SAFE AT THE FIRST Ma
TIoNAL AASK-The sensation of the day
on Monroe street yesterday, was the ar
rival and housing Of the new burglar proof
SAFE, manufactured by Hall Il Co, Of Gin.
cinnati, for the First National Bank Of
Wheeling. 1t stood on the wagon, on
which it was brought on the caIs, in front
OF the bank all day until after bank hours,
and during that time was the centre Of
attraction To all corners and gOcrs along
the street. It's massiveness, us well as its
beauty and perfection of finish, were the
themes OF admiring comment among the
populace. On all hands 1t was agreed
that as u piece Of burglar proof manutac-
ture as well as Of master mechanism in all
its appointments, this Sale was tue ne plus
ultra OF anything ever seen in these parts.
Wcconfess to being at a loss to see how
any depredator is ever to get inside oil
such thicknesses Of plates, such duplica'
lions of bolts, and such multiplicity OF
dove.tails as make up the many tons
weight of this magnificent safe. The
size Of the structure is six feet in height
by five and half in width, and twenty
seven inches in depth. The walls arc
four inches thick and made of alternate
plates Of hard and soft steel. There art
at the bottom two Burglar Proof Money
Chests, and these, as their name implies
are burglar proof OF themselves, ever
when the doors of the safe are open. Ii
these chests the funds Of the bank are Il
be kept night and day, except such por
ton rs is called into use during BAH
hours. Tho doors are models Of strength
In addition To their bolts, OF which lher'
arc we know not how many, they arr
secured by u tongue and grOove:arrange
ment peculiar to Halls manufacture o
safes, and thus made double proof ugains
not only the wedge but also the intro
duction Of nitrO.glycerine. The locks OF
these doors are combination patents
known us Halls double dial locks" AM
certainly the art OF man never dcyisel
anything more ingenious, and more appA
rcntly hopeless to professional lock
picker, than these "tum blcrs.'
Altogether, the sale is credit to tn
bank and an acquisition to the bushes
community. 1t has within it accommC
datiOns for about hundred tin boxes {
various sizes, intended for the use Of I'll
customers OF the bank who may hay
bonds or valuable papers to deposit An
, If there is such thing as laying up treas
, ures on earth where thieves cannot brca
through and steal, we think that the cu'
! toners OfthO bank have pretty sur
. thing OF tin this safe. Such safe, insid
Of vault and presided over by a Nigh
I Waterman, backed by adog and a brac
D Of pistols, is about as good security us PEE
pie can get for the safety Of their none
l in this part Of the country.

DR.. Pierce, the proprietor of Dr. sage's Ca

he says, when he offers $500 reward for any
case of Catarrh which he cannot cure, yet
there would be some skeptlcs and fogies who
would continue to shout, "Humbug ~ "HUM-
BUa !" alt cannot be, because DIR. Home
spun says Catarrh cannot be cured" Now,
this DR.. Homespun is the identical good-na-
tured old fellow who honestly believes and
persists in declaring that this earth Is net
round or spherical, but fat as "slap, jack I"
and does not turn over, otherwise the water
would all be spilled out of Deacon Bascom's
mill-pond. But astronomical science has pos
itively demonstrated and proven that DR..
HOmespun Is wrong in supposing this earth
to be fat and stationary, and medical science
is daily proving the fact that he Is no less
mistaken and behind the times in regard to
the durability of Catarrh. In short, 1t has
been positively proven that this world moves
and that medical science Is progressiUe, the
opinion of Dr. Homespun to the contrary
