Her face was aglow with intcnce alice

gentle manner has won for him the es-
TEEN OF all who knew him, therefore

Resolc.d, That in the loss of Brother
Cain we have lost one whose place can
scarcely be supplied, and whose aim it
was to promote and guard the interests
of his brothers, giving strict attention to
his duties and discharging them with
ability. He was faithful. kind, hos
pitabie and upright citizen, punctual to
meet his engagements and prompt to re-
spond to the calls of friendship and duty.
His faith, true and mistaken. ripened
into fulness of assurance and anticipated
his departure with no misgivings.
Resolved, That We do sincerely sym
pathizc with the family and friends IN
their bereavement, and assure them that
their loss and sorrow is kecnlv felt by
every brother in this grange, and the
name of Brother John Cain will ever be

tions be sent to the Wheeling REGISTER

WHEN the politicians who have been
making Il row about more money come
to consider that all the United State Sen
ators recently elected without distinction

cepuon, are opposed to imitation, perhaps
the solemn suggestion may occur to them
that it is about time to stop their idiotic
noise. Everlasting bowling is the occu-
patton of hell, and practical politicians

Tho TcIcgrMphic War.

Letter from Jennie June 10 Baltimore
American.
The warfare now about commencing
between the powerful combination known
rs the Western Union and the Atlantic
and Pacific Telegraph Company, repre-
tented principally by Jay Gould, Is OF real
importance 10 the country at large, yet 1t
prahably will not excite half the interest
tha, the Brooklyn trial has done, because
there are few personal and social elements
mixed up with it. All that the pubic
cares to know Is weather the final result
viii cheaper teIegraphy. and whichever
method does will probably win the sut-
fragc. In the meantime, the young op-
position have succeeded in getting pos
session of the Erie, Pennsylvania, and
Baltimore and Dino roads and their con-
nections, and as these roads own the
the wires of the Western Union, and ii is
understood they will.
They have also secured the control of
the new inventions, by the use of which
tolesraphv Is to be enormously reduced
in cost. Among these are the American
automatic instruments. Wheat>tomc'S au-
tomato machine, and, owing to a mi>un-
Outstanding which which has arisen with
the Western Union, the most important
of-all the celebrated quadrupIcX invention
which sends ut one time two messages
each way upon one wire. and when re-

PRESS MONOPOLY.
1t is especially interesting 10 press pco-
pie to know that the Associated Press
monopoly is ut last threatened in man
her that looks like business. There Is
shortly to be a meeting called in CIeve-
land or Cincinnati by Mr. Medill, Of the
Chicago Trijmc, for the purpose Of form
ing a National Press Association which
will place the great papers of other cities
on an ind cpendent footing with re-
gard to news, and save them the annoy
ance and humiliation Of having it ,ddled
out to them from New York.

The Z. & L. Society. Again as
usual last Monday evening, but owing
to the amount Of time and labor given
to the entertainment last week the pro-
gramme of the evening was not carried
out in full, many of those who had
been assigned parts being either absent
or unprepared. The consideration OF
the motion to adjourn for the ensuing
term, and the election of officers as
well as the consideration of bills and
the report of the Treas. were laid over
until the next meeting. Mr.. Gaynor
was appointed sole committee to pre-
pare programme and notify those as
signed parts in the next Monday even
ing meeting. The President notified
all officers and committees to be ready
with full reports for that time. Let
there be full attendance of members
at the next meeting SO that the motion
to adjourn for the summer months may
receive fair and candid consideration.
The society has prospered wonderfully
during the past six months, and grown
from very small beginning until
it has outnumbered all other societies
of its kind. But the burden has fallen
upon but small proportion of it's
members to keep the machinery NOV
inc, and now that the short even
ings are upon Us it seems to be the
wish of many that vacation of al
least one term be taken. There is no
reason why, during that time that the
society should cease exert its beneficial
influence, and, when. the members shall
again reassemble, they would be fresh
and strong for the work, and far better
able to make the society what it is In
tended to be, than they would be,
should it be continued during the sum-
mer months, though Mr.. Gaynor With
his usual perseverance argued to the
contrary.

The COncert.-The programme Of
the evening was opened to small but
appreciative audience. with selection
entitled "Enchanted Beauty" by the
Orchestra, which was we'll rendered.
The balance Of the programme was also

Of space in this issue prevents our

The programme to have been carried
out last "wednesday evening has
been postponed until further notice.

An imported gentleman of the
scissors took his fair dulcina to the
entertainment last week, and the ques-
ton arose which was the best man of
the two. for though one was dressed in

the other was dressed in mans habili-
ment, seemed to be neither the one nor
the other, too thin for either.

A Decision i'll the Farm Mort
gage Cases. farm mortgagers
have occasion to be exceeding glad.
Advices from Madison received by
Messrs. Powers and Webb, Tuesday,
bring the glad news that the Supreme
Court has rendered a decision in the
Wood and McGrath cases, Us the Hor-
icon swindle, reversing the judgment
in the McGrath case which was decid-
ed against him at the August term of
the Wood Circuit Court, and affirming
the judgment procured in the Wood
case, except as to twenty acres which
was inadvertently omitted in the de-
Tense. These decisions will, doubtless,
end the long and perplexing controver-
sy growing out Of one Of the blacklist
frauds ever perpetrated upon a com
munity by soulless corporation. The
outcome is glorious, and our whole
people will feel it's beneficial effects for
it touches the interests of every resi-,
dent in the county. Justice has pre-
vailed and if Jimmy NcGrath should,
under the circumstances, take a little
blackstrap, we'd be the last man tg
sling stone at him. Exit Horizon

The Entertainment by the
Temperance and Literary Society.
Our citizens, again, last Thursday
and Friday evenings, demonstrated in
a tangible manner their appreciation of
home talent, by turning out en- n1osse
to encourage the society which has
grown from a small handful Of earnest
workers until it has become an infuen-
tial organization numbering nearly an
hundred members whose hearts are in
the work they are pledged to perform.

ed to give a public exhibition, the pro-
ceeds to be appropriated to the pur-

Crin0line and How it is Some.

Crin0line and How it is Some
times Used. We win not attempt
to enumerate all the useful purposes
for which it was intended, but will call
the attention Of two young men or
rather boys, who tried to pervert it to
their own use by wearing them to the
entertainment last week. If those BOYS
will stop andcandidly reflect for one mo-
ment. they will readily see, how utterly
detestable such conduct is, in the eyes Of
those who have any regard for the
feelings Of the fair sex. Besides, it
shows great want of good breeding
and manly principles. We hope like
occurrence will never occur in our
midst again.
