TIE WILD CHERRY TREE.-It was
known many years ago that the wild
cherry tree possessed valuable medicinal
qualities. Indeed this fact was known
to the aborigines, and decoction of the
leaves or bark of this tree has ever been
regarded by their "medicine men" as one
of the most effectusl remedies for dis.
eases of the lungs. This fact arrested
the attention of DR.. Tut, of New York,
who Investigated with care its healing
properties. He found that its natural
virtues might be greatly improved by
combining 1t with other ingredients, and
has accordingly produced his Expector,
ant, which has proven remedy of great
value in pulmonary affections. II now
in general use, with the happiest effects,
in all diseases of the chest and throat,
and is deservedly styled the "Consump'
tive's Friend"

A HORSE TRANS ACTION. =
On Saturday night last Justice d. M
Donehoo, of this place, committed man
named George Martin to Jail to answer a
charge Of horse stealing on complaint OF
VIM. S. Lee, liveryman of Cardville
The facts are about rs follows: George
Martin, who claims to be q Mississlpplan,
first made his appearance in The neigh
borhood of Burgettstown in the early
summer of 1876, and commenced busl-
ness as q repslrer Of sewing machines
He frequently hired horse from the
prosecutor, and as frequently had the
animal in use for lengthy period. Be-
ing prompt in paying his bills, Mr.. Lee
placed the utmost confidence IN him, and
IN November, 1875, he hired him horse
until spring, the price to be paid per day
being agreed upon. Martin took the
horse at that time and has been using
him ever since, never having been back
to Cardvllle since that time, but having
travelled quite extensively in Ohio, West
Virginia, and the western portion OF
Pennsylvania. Naturally enough, Mr..
Lee long since had become anxious
about his property, and sought to re.
cover it. Learning last week that Mar
tin was at Prosperity, he came 10 town
with constable John Perrine and obtain
ing a warrant here, the two proceeded to
Prosperity and arrested their man at the
hotel OF Capt. NJ. Minton, where it was
ascertained he had been stopping for
several mouths, and that he had pledged
the horse in payment for board bill
which he had run on the Captain. Mar
tin was handcufed and brought to town,
and, as before stated, has been commit
ted for trial Washington Reoie,c and
Examiner.

considering the season the market was
moderately tair. All kinds of truck
seemed plenty enough except eggs, and
they were very scarce at 40 cents per

makes their purchases light, and dealers
say this is one great cause OF the falling

of these bewitching beauties to which this
item has reference. Their names are
well-(we have been sworn to secrecy
not to dlvulge them) land they are as
full of life as usually falls TO the lot OF
womankind, and at times have often eI-
pressed themselves as dissatisfied with the
restraint to which social etiquette has sub
jected them. Last night, however, they
put their dear little heads together and re-
solved on sport, the nature OF which was
the DOMINIC of male apparel and visit

All dsy yestel day they were buslly en-
gagged in making active preparations for
their masquerade, but unfortunately, one
of the ladies is possessed of q big bro, her
who overheard part of the converse.
ton, and determined to have an equal
share of the sport with the girls. The
brace of mischievous females, in order to
further protect their disguise, tarried
until late IN the evening before sailying
forth. Some few moments earlier, that
big brother, accompanied by compan-
ion, each enveloped in q, large Ulster,
repaired to the residence Of the lady
whom the masqueraders were about to
visit, and stationed themselves IN con-
yenient dark corners near the front en-
trance OF the house. They had not long
to wait before two apparently nobby
looking young men made their appear
ance, whose disguise would never, per-
hsps, have been discovered but for the
constant giggling and chuckling they
kept up in anticipation of the great sur
prise they should give Mrs. -.
The big brother and companion saw
their opportunity and stepped from their
hiding places, each grasping "young
man" and demanding in gruff tones,
"Wbat do you want here"
'Oh-oh-n-n.nothing, sir-l w-w-want
to 20 home" one of them managed to
stammer, while her companion breaking
loose from the gentleman holding her,
beat hssty retreat, clearing the fence
with the agility of "dear" and making
good time down the street, coat tail be-
ing all that could DO seen as her form re-
coded into the gathering darkness.
The young lady who had been de-
tanned was then released to follow her
companion, after convincing the sup
posed policemen that she was not burg
| lar, who did not reveal to her their lden-
tity, The two mischievous masqueraders
met at the place from which they start,
ed short time after, almost frightened
out of their wits, and entirely ignorant
MS to whom the gentlemen who banked
their little game were. The big brother
will probably explode the matter at the
breakfast table this morning.

BRIDGEPORT IrEMs.-Two men passed
down the back river on wharf boat.
yesterday.
The subject OF temperance is being
considerably agitated here just now.
Mr.. Russell, Of Chicago, has delivered
two lectures on the subject, and q num-
Der have found it profitable TO sign the
pledge. 1t is hoped that the reformation
of one or two may prove permanent.
The ice and high water absorb the
public interest.
The ice coming down the creek, yes
terday, gorged against the bridge, and
could not be moved, although several
parties worked all the afternoon trying
to start it. Later, the back water checked
| the current in the creek, but loosened
the ice so that it does not press against
the bridge.
On Tuesday evening the steamer Iron
Valley came around into the back river
to try and start the gorge above the
bridge, but failed to accomplish any thing
IN that line. About four o'clock yester-
day morning the rise from above started
it out, and all day yesterday the back
river was full of ice. About 8 O'Clock A
NJ, wharf boat with two men on board
passed down. A rumor prevails that
they succeeded il getting ashore at West
Wheeling. Two bsrges we're success,
fully landed in the neighborhood OF the
La Belle Glass works, and small boat
loaded with lumber just above the bridge
One said that he counted twenty barges
that passed down before noon. In the
evening the river was comparatively
clear Of ice and DRIFT Fears of an over
flow were entertained, but only few Gel
lars are filed with water
Mr.. John Slxsmith started for the
lunstic asylum at Athens under the care
of DR.. Fisher yesterday morning. de
was taken from room in which he had
fastened himself, after seige last
ing nearly all night.
Extra services are in progress At the
Methodist church in Kirkwook every
evening this week.
We noticed little accident to as leddis
last evening. He had just. got fairly
upder Roadway when his sled broke II
the middle, depositing him on the icy
incline. When he got home his mother
would have to half-sole him or hi

and the girls too for some of them with
out seds make sleds of their shawls snc

RIVER NEWS.

The marks at the landing last night |
could not be seen owing to their being
covered with ice, but it is thought there
was about 80 feet in the channel, with
the river rising slowly.
All day yesterday the levee and bridge
was we'll crowded with people watching
the heavy ice floating in the river and
the numerous barges and boats pass
down. During the day two ferry boats
passed down, zone in the back river
and one on this side of the Island. The
Iron Valley was busy during the day IN
landing bsrges, and numerous men IN
skiffs ventured out in the ice to land saw
! logs. The Iron Valley landed some
seven or eight barges below Stonetown
on the IslsnG, and we understand that
several were safely landed in the back
river ut Bridgeport, also that the Debold
did good work below the iron bridge at
Bellaire, reaping quite harvest in the
way of salvage.
The gorge in tie back river broke yes
tcrdsy morning.
The Hornbrook was kept busy yester-
day, in getting her bsrges 70 p laces

The Monitor landed one or two bsrges
