No DoUBr one of the largest houses Of the
season will turn out tonight to see Rob-
son and Crane In Forbidden Fruit"
These gentlemen are undoubtedly the
finest comedians on the boards and will
give this amusing play in manner unpar-
alleled heretofore. Forbidden Fruit is
new to Wheeling and viii not fail TO fill
the house.
NATURE once more takes her colors and
with the forests for a canvas and the hill
sides for an easel, evolves those charming
hues which make autumn the loyelieSt sea-
son Of the year. The naples crimson, the
gum trees scarlet, the hickoTy's yellow, are
beginning to turn the forests into one great
palette for the silent artist, Frost. The
autumn colors promise to be unusually
vivid, and the grass being greener than for
years, the lover Of the beautiful can find
much to enjoy this fall.-TsIegrdph.
The East Wheeling Presbyterian Mission
Sunday School had their ANIMAL Harvest
Home service at the chapel on Eighteenth
street Yesterday afternoon. The room was
handsomely decorated with all kinds OF
fruits, flowers, vegetables, cornstalks, cere-
ais, fodder, oats and wheat and presented
q most beautiful appearance. The large
room was literally packed with people. Mr..
J. NJ Belleville acted as Superintendent
in place Of Col Robert White, who was
detained away by the death OF a relative.
The firstand principal speaker was United
States Marshal G. w. Atkinson, who spoke
for fifteen or twenty minutes in his usual
happy manner, and the children as well as
the old folks enjoyed il very much. W. A.
List followed in q neat little speech, and
other short addresses followed.
TIE death of Samuel II. B. Carter, Esq +,
took place suddenly at his residence, four
miles east Of this city, yesterday afternoon.
Mr. Carter was born near this city, where
the Four Mile House now stands, in 1906,
and was consequently in his 10Th year at
the time Of his death. Inheriting from his
father a large tract of land, he has ever
since resided within sight OF the place Of
his birth. He has been prominent farmer
and citizen for the last sixty years, and
many times has been identified with move
ments looking to the advancement OF the
interests of his locality. He was q Justice
OF the Peace for Triadelphis township for
some years, and was always regarded as
liberal friend and a generous neighbor by
those who knew him. Mr.. Carter leaves q
large family of children, all of them grown,
and most Of them living in this county.
ABOUT one O'Clock ON Monday afternoon
the boiler attached TO the -four mill of
Stewart & Meyer, in town, exploded with
terrific force, knocking the boiler house
into a thousand pieces and coming down
through the roof of the mill, knocked BIZ;
hole in it and then went about half through
the floor. The loss will amount to about
one thousand dollars. Mr.. Stewart and the
engineer, James Gelsthorpe, were engaged
in packing the engine at the time OF the ex-
plosiOn. and, although covered with debris,
escaped unhurt. The cause OF the eX-
plosion is unknown, as both Mr.. Stewart
and Mr.. GelSthorpe say there was plenty
of water in the boiler, which was an up
right, one Aued one. The building caught
FIRE, but by the timely arrival OF assistance
the fire was exthinguished before any
damage was done. AS a proof of the force
Of the explosion it is said that the mud
valve was found on Moore's hill, half mile
awsy, where it had been blown.-W etISburg
