He proceeded 10 discuss the civil service
reform policy, and said that the civil

of the House knew it to be futile and
foolish. The fountain of honor itself
was poisoned. He enumerated the various

reform, and asked why Messrs. Ander-

retained in office, when one of them WAS

MIss CANS CONCERT
At School Hall, last night. was a COM
plete success In every particular. There
was an audience Of something near four
hundred persons present. Every one
who participated in the concert in any
way performed their several parts in q
manner most creditsble TO them, and
whilst l do not wish to discriminate,
still l cannot refrain from mentioning in
u special manner Miss Annie Grsy's rem
derlng of the song, "Tbe Burning Ship
at Sea-" Miss Gray certainly possesses
q voice of remarkable power, psthos and
sweetness, a blending of all the elements
essential to constitute successful public
singer. Notwithstanding the large num-
Der OF school children and young folks
present, the attention was such during
her singing that every word spoken was
distinctly heard IN every part of the hall.
The entertainment was indeed far
superior to anything OF the
kind ever listened to by q
Moundsville audience, and one that
might successfully invite the criticism of
a more metropolitan audience. Unfor-
storm threatening about nine
o'clock caused portion Of tie audience
to prepare to leave the hall. This created
8 feeling of unessiness among those
present, as our people have not yet gotten
over the impression founded upon the
circumstance Of some person starting q
report some time ago during perform
snce in the hall which resulted in panic
among those present. A committee
wa, appointed at the time, who examined
into the condition of the building and
some precautionary measures,
which were adopted, which rendered it
in their opinion perfectly safe.
1t is hoped that Miss Cans can be pre-
vailed upon to repeat the entertainment
some time soon under more favorable
as only portion of the

stances, was gone through with.

One Of the heaviest rain storms that
ever swept over this section Of country,
visited this city this afternoon. The
rain fell IN such volume that objects
could not be disserned half block dis
tsnt, and the form Of man was indis-
tlnct ten feet distant. The cutters and
streets were swollen to the dimensions OF
torrents, carrying away dry goods boxes
doorsteps and bridges over cutters. The
wind blew perfect hurricane, lifting the
tin roof from the Presbyterian Church,
uprooting trees, and on the terrace a
frame house in the process of erection
was blown down and other damage
done. So far as has besn yet heard
no one was injured, but the damage to
property is great.

this place, near Black Hand, completely
covering the railroad track for a great
distance in length and depth. The bridge

Ten more were then coined, but the

The first twelve, having been struck
on polished plsnchets, were removed by
hand to prevent indentstion, and each

Learn Something.

A young man stepped into the Office of
the indianapolis Rolling Mill not long
since and asked for work. What can
you do?" asked the president. Il don t
know" said the young man. "Have you
a trade p mo, sir" where did you
come from 2'' From Pennsylvania" "
"Are you German 2' mo, sir; I am an
American" "If you were Germ an, or
an Irishman, or Frenchman, could set
you to work, because you would know
how to do something, but Americans
don't know anything about practical
business"
This reply may not apply to all Amer.
leans, but it is lament tably true to a great
extent In Germany the boy is brought
up where he sees something done, and
has some idea of doing it. Very few
Irishmen or Germans but know how tc
turn over few rods of ground and raise
something upon it. Most of them have
some idea of mechanical operations, the
production and uses of material and oil
tools.
1t is those born in America who are
ignorant and idle. 1t is the false notion
that man does not need to labor, OF
that he can get his labor by his wits, that
causes large part of our idleness and
distress. Begin at once to learn some
thing; no matter your age, learn some
practical pursuit at once Scientific

The CONTROVERSY in Cincinnati over the

The controversy in Cincinnati over the
price of lager beer is hot. Retailers and
the drinkers desire rate of three cents
a glass, and two glasses, or schooner"
for FIVE cents. The brewers refuse to sell
to retailers who charge less than five
cents glass. Even the truly good Dea-
con Richard Smith shows an excited state
of feeling on the subject, for he says:
"A more odious monopoly of one of the
necessaries of life has not been known in
history. 1t is enough to make our citi-
zens rise up and march with the red flag
and the motto: Beer or blood For a
tax of twopence pound on tea the heroic
sons of liberty destroyed the tea and set
the ball of revolution rolling.
