hard TO excel for natural advantages,
healthiness of location, scenery, rich soil,

PLAYING WITH PISTOLS.
A Little Boy known in Wheeling
Shoots His PIay-FeIIOw.

Charleston Courier.
On Sabbath last about noon, two little
boys about seven years OF sge respec-
lively, soue of Mr.. j. w. Gentry and
George Welch, Esq, of this city, were
fJohng with pistol, when the pistol
went of while being handled by Willie
Gentry and came near killing George
Welch. 1t seems that on Saturday a
gentleman who was stopping at the st.
Albert, opened bureau drawer
and showed Willie Gentry his
revolver, and on Sunday Willie
wanted George to go with him
to the room TO see little gun. They
both started and George stopped at the
door while Willie went to the drawer
and took out the revolver and turned
around to show it TO George, who was
peeping around the door. Willie sue.
ceeded in getting the pistol cooked and
while revolving the cylinder he pulled
the trigger, causing 1t to discharge, the
ball striking George just over the right
eye. The ball glanced oil and did not
seriously hurt him, although his eye is
very much swollen. Willie's only e1-
cuse for his rash conduct was that he did
not know it would make the "bleed'
come.

Wool.
Moundsville Reporter.

MOuuubNlllt ENtpOI SCl'
We hear of but few sheep being shorn
so far this season, farmers being busy
breaking ground and planting corn.
The wool this season, as 8 general thing,
is not as good as that of last year owing
to the open winter in which not as good
care was taken Of sheep as last year. We
hear of fseveral lots averaging FIVE and SIX
pounds to the fleece Mr.. 5. A. Cock
ayne has shesred number OF his fine
Meriono sheep which averaged, for the
ewes, about twelve pounds and for the
rams sixteen pounds each. We have
heard Of no sales yet and farmers with
whom we have cOnversed on the subject,
say that there will be few sales until late
in the season as there is a desire to hold
on to the staple in view Of better prices
than are ruling e! this time. We doubt
the propriety Of this policy as the quota
tions the past few years show that the
prices ruling early in the season is q little
in advance of that ruling later IN the
summer.
