THE MAGNIFICENT MONUMENTS

Erected By Black & Bro. Awarded First
Premium and the Firm q Silv-r Medsl
Several days previous to the opening
of the State Fair. the entire force en-
plOyed by Messrs. Black & Bro, under
the efficient direction OF Mr.. w. B.
Howell, the capable manager of the
works, was employed in hauling to the
grounds the magnificent specimens OF
monumental work, which, when COM
pleted and set up in the enclosure mark
ed off for the exhibit, formed one OF the
most extensive and striking displays OF
the Exposition. Not only was the speci-
mems of towering granite and marble
perfection Of themselves in grace, finish
and polish, but their admirable arrange
ment contributed much to enhance their
appearance and drawing from thou
sands of spectators hearty words
of commentator and admira-
ton. Credit for such effective groupings
OF the work, and in fact for all the de-
tails OF the exhibition is due to Mr..
Howell, to whom the firm gave carte
blanche. knowing his good judgment and
care. For the exhibit the firm WIS
awarded silver medal, and it took the
FIRST PREMIUM. Although Messrs.
Black & Bro. were at much expense n
making their exhibit; in all probability
much more than any single exhibitor
there, they feel we'll recompensed for
the outlay and the time and trouble in
Cured.
The REGISTER has before remarked of
the facilities enjoyed by this house i'll
the purchase of Foreign and Amer can
marbles aud granite. They are bought
right at the quarries after careful seleC-
ton and low rates Of freight secured on
heavy shipments. At their shops in
this city at No. 1910 Market street, they
have the largest and most talented force
Of hewers, carvers and marble workers
of any similar establishment in the
State. Though located in this
city but few years, by their
moderate charges, unquestioned su-
periority OF designs and work they
now command business not second to
any in this region OF country. They
are always busy, and at the prospective
increase in their sales in the ratio of last
years, Wheeling is destined to see one
of the most complete marble establish
ment in the country. Write north, east,
south or west for prices if you desire;
visit all the marble works in the neigh
borhood, but before you buy call on the

During the high tide OF the success OF

a discussion, pro and con, as to whether
Messrs. O'Kane & Divine had them
selves manufactured the handsome and
shapely boots and shoes which they had
there to display. The conversation, or,
rather, the argument, was held by two
gentlemen, and the scribe, making
note OF it, determined to seek informa'
ton on the point. Even the newspaper
man was interested in the exhibition OF
such fine workmanship on men and
women's foot wear, and having oppor-
tunity Yesterday asked the firm II they
had made the goods IN their cases at
the Fair?
every single shoe and boot there
was made right in this very shop. was
the emphatic response. And what Is
more" remarked one OF the partners,
"thoss boots which you were kind
enough to praise were not made for any
special exhibit, we make similar ones
foI our customers right along. AND
lhis is true OF those finer goods. This
morning we are finishing a pair OF shoes
for one OF the finest young ladies in this
city, and believe they are handsomer
than any We had in our cases at the
Fair"
There was plenty OF competition in the
boot and shoe line-the fsnciest work OF
Eastern makers, but against all this
Messrs. O'Kane & Divine put their own
