CALDWELL PLEASURE GARpEN. B.
Rupp, who formerly kept the Pennsyl-
vsnis House, on Jacob street, has leas-
ed the Caldwell mansion and grounds,
on Fairmont street. north Of La Bell
mill, and has fitted it up as pleasure
garden where those of our citizens who
wish to leave the dust of the city and en-
Joy the cool breezes for an hour or two
each day, can enjoy themselves to their
hearts content. The grounds are OF
about four acres in extent, are shaded
with fine forest trees and affords well
come retreat TO those who love nature
and love to take their families to such
resorts. Mr.. Rupp proposes to make
his gardens a pleasant, orderly and
agreeable place where all who wish can
spend an hour by day or in the evening.
On Wednesdays and Saturdays music
will be furnished. On Saturday next
he proposes to have formal opening
and picnic, to which all are invited. He
wishes all our citizens to come, that all
may see what a delightful place he has
provided for their entertainment. Some
such breathing place has long been
needed in Wheeling, and as there is no
probability of public park ever being
established here, it must be left to pri-
yate enterprise to furnish us such gar
dens as every other city Of our size in
the United States enjoys. We believe
that properly managed it will be a great
success.

POLICE County, esterdays gather
ing of galoots before Judge Good, pre-
scented the extraordinary condition OF
affairs, Of all the cases being PLAIN
DRINKS and not one of the party able
to nav his fine. This perhaps is due to
the fact that the geological academy
under the charge of Prof Price, began
its fall term on Monday, and the boys
all want to go up head" The four
men tried were not arrayed as those
are who attended on Louis XIV, on
Bismarck, or even on Louis Napoleon.
They looked as if their days debauch
and night in the gorgeous caIaboose
had not agreed with them.
James Patton came from Long run
to buy harness. He had long run OF
it before he could find the place he was
looking for. When he found it the

No shekles. Geology for ten days,
Frank Denny was wandering along
the wharf, wondering when we would
have a big river. Not that it made
much difference to him, for he never
uses it, hardly for washing, certainly
not for drink. His wandering and won
dering so overcame him that he sat
down on a chair in front of the Boat
Store and slept the sleep Of the drunk

Jimmy Johnson No. |, alias Yam
kee-doodle.do, was up again. He is
continually up again when he can get
in town to get a drink. No sooner
does he quit mending shoes than he
comes to the city, gets up again and
goes to mending our ways. There never
was such a jolly old cock for getting up
again. He was found lying around the

of talk. 100 and costs. No wampum'

Thomas Carton was filled with de-
sire TO witness the legitimate drama.
Acquiring the absurd habit that pre-

THOUSAND DOLLAR TRoT.-The trot
to come off over the Island Park Course
this afternoon for purse Of $1,000 is
exciting a good deal of interest among
our sporting men. Both the compete
ting horses are said to be flyers, and 90
to settle the question as to which is the
fleetest. A second trot has been added,
makinga fine days sport. See adver-

FALSE ALARM.-The alarm OF fire
given about nine o'clock last evening
was raised by party of galoots on the
creek bank, near Sixth street. About
one hundred lashes on the back is the
kind of medicine needed by any one
who would give false alarm of fire.

THE HosPITALlTIEs OF THE City
On the occasion of the visit Of the
Mayor and City Council to Pittsburgh,
over the Pittsburgh and Connellsville
railroad, the city of Wheeling, through
her municipal officers, extended its
Inequalities to the visitors. The time
is fast approaching when the Mayor
and Council Of Pittsburgh will visit
Baltimore, and yesterday the Second
Branch of the City Council passed a
resolution, offered by Mr.. Mccoy, ten
dering the Inequalities Of Baltimore to
the Mayor and Council of Wheeling.
As soon as the resolutions are adopted
by the First Branch, they will be en-
crossed and transmitted to the Mayor
Of Neutrality-suspicious. Gazette, Sep
TENDER 5.
When the invitation arrives we shall
be anxious to know who is going. The
quantity of headache that will be dis
tributed by the City Council Of Balti-
more will render it incumbent on
Wheeling to send men who can stand
it, all the six bottle men" she has.
The member OF Council who cannot get
up from table and walk off with gal
Ion, at least, has no business going on
the proposed excursion. 1t will be the
delight of the Monumentalists to fud-
die the Wheeling delegation, and what
more astounding sight could there be
than to see the acrimonious Allison,
the bilious Blair, the sententious Stan.
ton, or the jocular LETTERS, tuddled. Or
what sight could there be so well calcu-
lated to make angels weep. as to hear
the oratorical and classical Clator, fear
fully fuddled, making a speech after he
has got his skinful. How we would
like to hear President Forbes sling in a
chunk of parliamentary law to the as
sembled multitude after the ninth bottle.
Send your strougest-headed men, gentle
men of the Council. It's no child's
play, this struggling with Monumental
wine and whisky in the presence Of the
Councils Of Pittsburgh and Baltimore.

FALL IN Enthusiastically morning
the horses attached to a milk wagon
ran away on Third street. Centre
Wheeling, giving their load of milk a
lively churning. As they reached the
front of Reed & Kraft's drug store,
corner of Main and Third, they man
aged to smash the vehicle and pile up
the milk wagon, milk cans and milk In
the gutter. There was no use In the
owners crying over the split milk, but
we believe he would be held excusable
if he had dropped a few tears over the
wreck of his wagon and his hopes.

PRODEGIOUS LlBERALITY.


A Merchant Loses focset-bpoW uontuiains
StO,OOO- Receivers tho Treasure ahu Pre-
misses Reward Of BIU- Thc Reward Not
Paid.
One evening last week a merchant visited
Woods Theatre taking with him pocket book
containing $4,000 This he lost in the house
that night but was not aware Of the fact till
next morning, when he realized bis loss TO the
fullest extent.
fastening to the theatre he entered tho vesti-
bule in most confused condition, AVID rushing
up to the Treasurer, exclaimed in a most fren-
zied manner, "My pocket-book my pocket
bOok!'
The Treasurer not knowing of the loss, was
in the dark in regard to what appeared to him
an Insane demand
"NIy pocket-book my pocket book" again
was repeated when the Treasurer, recovering
his selt-possession, queried, "What pocket
book"
''The pocket-book / lost here last evening""
came the answer from the distressed merchant.
Thinking, doubtless, that he had lost pocket
book, the Treasurer called down stairs the
colored girl Caroline, who attended to the
sweeping in the dress-circle, and on questioning
her ascertained that she had picked up the
pOCket-book, which she had contemplated
bringing to the box-of1ce after she had accom-
plished her work. The merchant at once identi-
fed the pocket-book, and proving property it
was at once restored to him. lie was over
come at its recovery that, in the fullness of his
heart which was stopping over with gratitude,
he promised her ten dollars but she has not yet
received 1t, and has now given up all hope of
the promised reward Cincinnati Times.

AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP FOR
GREAT BRTTATN
FOR

CABLE despatch states that, at a late meet
ing of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce.
the two Liverpool members of Parliament
united in expressing the comfortable convic-
ton that "all native-born Americans cherish
an affection for England, and that it was the
alien residents of the United States alone
who were hostile to Great Britain" This
opinion was probably predicated on the fact
that it is only such raw Irishmen as Ben.
Butler, in the House of Representatives, or
such late importations from the Emerald
Isle as Charles Sumner and Zach Chandler,
in the Senate, that ever venture to breathe
any other sentiments than those of unalter-
able love for our dear old step-mother on the
other side of the Atlantic. We have
so many causes for gratitude
that it is impossible to forget
and ignore them all. We know how nobly
the Hessians and the merciless savages were
employed to murder American citizens during
the Revolutionary war; how our Capitol was
burned down, and our frontiers ravaged by
Indian allies of the red coats, during the war
of 1912; and how, during the late war, when
our energies were absorbed in conflict with
the Rebels, Great Britain did her utmost to
destroy our commerce, to strengthen the
hands of our domestic foes, and to break up
the Union forever. For all these favors, con-
joined to an unceasing warfare upon Ameri-
can industry and an Interchangeable jealousy
of American progress, the native-born oiti-
zens of the United States are, of
course, pro Foundly grateful. AS their graft
tude for the favors lavished upon them
during the Revolutionary era began to cool,
the new occurrences which precipitated the
war of 1912 and marked its progress gave
new force to their friendly sentiments; and as
they were forgetting the events of 1912, the
occurrences of the war of the Rebellion, and
the kind aid and sympathy then displayed by
Great Britain, served to swell all native Ame-
rican hearts once more with profound graft
tude. If series of injuries such as no one
independent people has ever suffered at the
hands of another should engender friend
ship, we ought to be fast friends of Great
Britain.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1871-02-06


thorizing the President to despatch one or
more naval vessels from New York to France
with bresdstuffs and provisions, to be con-
tributed by the people of the United States
for the relief of those who have suffered by
the ravages of the war. This is an eminently
proper and humane movement, and we hope
it may be vigorously followed up. 1t is inn
possible to estimate the damage done, in a
thickly populated country, by the enforced
suppression of industry, and it is only
too probable that exterior aid alone can
save tens of thousands of Frenchmen from
starvation. In the humane work of relief
the United States should do their full share,
and it only needs good organization of the
proposed movement and clear explanation
of its necessity to secure liberal contribu-
tions from the ample stores of America. No
difference of sympathy in regard to parties
to the present quarrel should retard the col
lection of the proposed supplies. The Ger
mans themselves are doing their best to feed
starving Frenchmen, and we too could not
grant aid to any nation which has stronger
claim upon our assistance than that which
sent us armies aud fleets to ensure the sue
cess of our Revolutionary struggle.
