The Wheeling Board OF Education
In the Real Estate Business.
Editors Of The IntelllgencCr; =,

hellots OF the 1ntelliBencCr;
The Wheeling Board Of Education
seems Of lato to have been dealing some
what extensively in real estate; and
judging from the character oil some Of
its transactions in this line II might be
presumed that this sagaclous body re-
CARDS itas legitimate part OF It's busl-
ness to speculate u in this way. S2s1
A few months since certain property
on the corner Of 18th and Chapline streets,
was by act Of the Board, seized, and the
otoners driren of under pretext that the
ground was wanted as o site for q School
House. Well, had the Board gone for.
ward and occupied the ground for this
purpose the transaction would have had
the sanction Of law, but instead Of doing
80 this tugaciouS body turns in .and
trades 1t of for ground in another Ward.
The legitimacy Of this proceeding may
be regarded as more than doubtful tits
believed that 1t would not stand tho test
Of law, and that the parties from whom
the ground on tho corner Of 18th and
Chapline was forcibly taken might, II 80
disposed, recover possession Of tho prop
erty.i The school law provides that the
Board Of Education may, under certain
circumstances, have ground condemned
for The use IF public schools" and after.
wards "may enter thereon and use said
ground FOR SCHOOL PURPosEs." But
nowhere Is 1t provided that against the
will Of the owners and instead Of occupy
ing It as provided by law, trade 1t away
for other property. u,
But this Is not the only transaction Of
the Board in real estate, the legitimacy Of
which may DO fairly questioned. Some
years ago a former Board Of Education
believing a public high school essential
to tho perfection Of free school system
purchased an eligible site for the pur-
pose on the corner Of Centre and Fourth
streets. This site has been held sacred
with reference 10 this important object

OF tho district 10 become favorable for IL
consumatlon. But now that all things ar
ripe, what does this Board preeipltdtels

LIVER AND BLOOD DISEASES.

A healthy liver secretcs each day
about two and a half pounds Of bile,
which contains n great amount Of
waste material taken from the blood.
When tile liver becomes torpid or COLI

amount Of noxious substance, which.
therefore, remains TO poison the blood,

The stock market for the week closes
to day rather ~qulescently and at rather
Of a decline In most descriptions, al
though tie leading stocks show an adj
vance. Bslcher declares q dividend
to-day OF q per share. payable on tho
10th, aud on the Sth Crown Point will
declare at least %, aud some who
ought to know, say ~ per share. Even
81 Is pretty good, however. The out.
look for a good market next week Is
promising. We have no new ore de-
velopments to record, bat merely I'M
proycment In the leading deposits.
Tho east drit or cresscut OF the 1900
foot level OF the Crown Point mine
Is through the barren streak or
horse" and to-day Is about twenty
feet into good ore, which continues the
same In the face Of tho drift. This 10
a very encouraging circumstances at
thar point. Tbs liO0-foot level OF the
Belcher Is locking very finely, the
"openlng out at that Point be-
Ing just commenced. showing good
ore on all sides. The great ore body
OF the Consolidated Virginia also
gives mn increased good showing.
From 30 feet wide, at the 100. foot
level, IL Is found TO widen out TO about
80 feet at the l30O-foot level, aud ut
the l400. foot level the crosscnt east
has passed through nearly % OF the
same good ore, which continues In ils
face. IL will probably prove to be 6O
feet wide ut that point. The north drlit
follows the same ore q distance OF lOO
feet or more. with 10 Indications oil
cessation. IL Is rich ore but very hard,
all having to be blasted. Thus Il VIII
be seen that the main ore bodies In our
leading mines hold out splendidly at
the lower levels. The increased ore
production brings all the milling re-
sources OF the country Int &C.
tive reQulsition. The Consolidated
Virginia niue, although only
a few months established rs ore pro-
duclng. already keeps i've mills
running. aud two more arc secured
