Exposition, and also looking after the
interests of his business.
Adam Faupleis confined to his room
with mild attack OF fever.
1t was singular thing, but a larger
number of business men had business
in Wheeling yesterday than has been
known for long time.
The Eastern Ohio Conference of the
NJ. +. Church meets at Akron on the
oath inst, the session to extend for one
week. Rev. Toland will leave this city
for Akron on Monday morning and will
probably return on the late train on
Saturday evening. The following APP
pointments have been made, and will be
of some interest to church members OF
this city: DIR. VIM. McMasters, as the
Barnesville district Steward TO the annual
Conference, and James Wilson as Lay
Delegate. These gentlemen will
no doubt accompany Rev. Toland.
The members of the NJ. f. Church
in the Barnesville district feel grieved
to know that the term OF the present
Presiding Elders office expires at this
session OF Conference. During Rev.
Carr's residence in this district he has
won many friends, who are sorry to
have the gentleman leave us.

Thirty-third streets, heavy coat OF Gin

this street during the coming season.
The LiederkrInz Singing Society
held very enjoyable social at their
hall on Union street on Sunday evening.
Prof. Vaas. of Wheeling, was present
and executed some very fine music,
which is highly spoken of by those who
were fortunate enough to be present.
We are under obligations to w. F.
Sniyely, of the Bellaire Goblet Works,
for courtesies shown us yesterday after
noon, while we were taking in the pack
ing and engraving departments OF the
works. Mr.. Sniveley informed us
that they devote their attention
exclusively to the manufacture OF COB
lets, and said he, 1--WE are manufactur-
ing at present 10000 gOblets per week,
sixty barrels per day OF which are en-
graved goods. The increased business
of this company has compelled them to
make contracts for large additions to
their already large factory, and in conse-
quence huge buildings of both frame
and brick, are in course OF construction.
Capt. Rowles, OF this city, has the con-
tract for, and is at present busily en-
gared in making the iron ornaments for
the top of the tower on the GAINESVILLE
school house. The work is progressing
finely, and when completed the Captains
work will be something OF which Bel
laire should feel proud.
Bellaire is now enjoying a brief re-
spite from political meetings, and one
has an opportunity to observe the work
inos OF business. The smoke from the
furnaces Of almost every mandatory is
daily darkeniRg the sun, and wherever
you turn more than usual activity
greets you-that is, more hustle and
bushes than have been noted since the
great panic. In conversation with
manufacturers, merchants and business
men generally, We are assured that each
is transacting more business than during
any of the years since 1873. No idlers
are seen at the usual loafing places and
everything points to very prosperous
season, both to employers and en-
ployees, in Bellaire.
The great mass meeting announced
for the 10Th inst. has been definitely
fixed 10 come off in the afternoon. Our
people want to meet their favorite
statesman in the broad open light OF day,
they will bestir themselves to tender
him "the best they have in the shop"
II Wheeling cares to remember the
the favors her Democracy have re-
ceived from Bellaireans, she will recipro-
cate by sending us monster delegation.
In a recent conversation with SEN
tleman from Columbus, he assured us
that every county which ever gave a
Democratic majority would hold its own
i. not give an increased Democratic ma
iority this year. He had travelled in
almost every county in the state, and
therefore was competent to form sound
opinion on the matter. He assured us
that Ewing's election was certain.
The Inteliigencer has endeavored to
create the impression that there was
some dissatisfaction in Democratic cir
cles here over the nomination OF MIR.
Conway for State Senator from tins dis
trict. There is not the least ground for
such a suppositiOn. Democrats here
had opportunity to meet and know the
gentleman the last week, and he was
most favorably received at the hands of
all He is a gentleman of excellent adj
dress and sterling good sense. Our
people like him and will give him ma
jority in Belmont county that will over
come the Republican majority in Har-
risOn county beyond the shadow OF
doubt. This district is composed OF
Harrison and Belmont counties, aud the
usual Republican majority OF Harrison
is from 300 TO 600.
Our Republican brethren are making
fair preparations to receive Judge Taft
on Wednesday night, and as they turn
out well at all meetings, good crowd
may be expected.
The Republican meeting announced
for Friday night, at which W. W. Curry
was announced TO speak, will not come
Oft, the committee deeming ii wisdom to
have Mr.. Curry speak at Bridgeport on
that evening. Mr.. Curry is reputed a
good stumper, and the Bridgeporters
will doubtless receive him with all the
"pomp and circumstance" becoming
the occasion.
We take the following personal item
from the Topeka, Kansas, Daily Capital.
