WASHINGTON COUNTY ITEMS,
rom the Review and Examiner.

From the Review and Examiner.
Ii is stated that VIM. Z. Robinson,
news agent and bookseller at Beallsville
is about to start monthly paper devoted
to the local interests of that community.
SATURDAY night last, the Washington
Building and Loan Association loaned
$4O0 at premium of 81! per cent, and
Sl.OOOat 30! per cent.
JOHN Mcdowell, Esq corresponding
secretary of the Washington County Ag-
ricultural Society, Is actively engaged IN
collecting and arranging samples of wool
grown in this county, for display at the
Centennial Mr.. Robert VanvConis, of
the Keystone sheep farm, Carroll town
ship, and VIM. l.. Archer, of Burgetts
town, have been selected to prepare sam
piles representing the American Merlno
woods from Washington county.
INTELLIGENCE has been received by
relatives, which leads TO the belief that
James r. McConaughy. formerly a stu
dent of Washington and Jefferson Col
lege, was recently murdered in Nebras-
ka. The body was found in the woods,
where it had evidently lam for some
time. The circumstances attending the
finding were very suggestive of murder.
The deceased was young unmarried
man, aged about twenty-five years, and
until few years ago resided with his
deceased fathers family, at Bridgeport,
Ohio He formed many acquaintances
while here, and had he concluded his
studies, would haye graduated in the
class of 1872.
SOME time during Sunday night last
Jewish peddler named Nathan Mannheim
was robbed OF about $3.50 worth of no.
tions and other goods, which he had
placed in the stable in the rear of the
dwelling of James A. Nichol, on por-
ton of the old Mansion House property,
in this place The stable has been rented
ana used by Mannheim for some time in
which to keep his horse and buck-wagon,
and the goods were contained in a couple
of heavy sacks placed in one Of the
stalls. Entrance was effected by pry-
ing loose an outer board fronting the
manger, into which large hole had
been eaten. Mannheim has been trsvers-
ing our county for two or three years
past selling various kinds of goods ard
purchasing turs. We believe his home is
in Pittsburg. There Is no clue to the
thief.

A CENTENNIAL CABlNEy.-Our COM
munity cannot but admire and appreciate
the liberalty and enterprise OF some OF
our manufacturing firms, who are gong
to much pains and expense TO have their
productions properly represented at the
Centennial. 1t is not only an honor to
them, but sheds q corresponding iustre
upon our young commonwealth. Among
those who are justly entitled to this praise
is the firm of j II. Hobbs, Brockunicr 81
Co., OF the South Wheeling Glass
Works, who have had made, by
Messrs. q. Mendel. Booth d CO.,
one of the handsomest and largest
cabinets it has been our pleasure to gaze
upon. This splendid piece Of design and
workmanship is about l6 feet in height
six in width, and probably 30 in length.
The base, frame and ornamental work
are composed OF richly polished native
black and Frer oh ~walnuts. The frame
work is to be united by large plates Of
glass ..of say by 3,S feet. These work in
almost air.tight finished grooves, so
smoothly and thoroughly are they fitted
together. The design and get-up
of the whole cabinet is the
work of the firms artizans,
and has the merit of being fine specl-
men of what our Wheeling furniture
men and cabinet makers can do in that
line; and further, it conveys the fact that
our merchants who are in need of cabinet
work, such as show cases need not go
abroad to have it done, when right at
home finer and cheaper article may
be had.
To form better idea Of the dimen-
sions of the Messrs. Hobbs, Brockunier
Il Cos. cabinet, we may say that when
completed it will cost between $1,000 and
$1,000. Our citizens should drop in and
take peep at it before the sections are
disconnected and packed for Phila-
delphia.
