The Council Committee on Markets was
called together last evening to take some
action about the notice rved by Market
Master Edwards on those renting stalls in the
Second Ward Market, to the effect that on
July 4 the Wednesday morning mari ct would
BIO dispensed with and one held Tuesday
evening. There was a big kick over this. 4
market is held Tuesday morning in Centre
Market and the huckstsrs found that they
would not be able to attend both in the morn
ing and evening. There was a full meeting
of the committee. Mr.. Edwards was present
and said that outside of three or four he had
met with no opposition when giving notice
of the change. Clerk Galligan called the at
tention OF the committee to the section of
the market ordinance reading "Afarket shall
be held at the Second ward market on We'd
nesday and Saturday of each week, commenc-
ing st A. N. and ending alto A. M. from

N. from October to April: Provided, that
The market shall be open for the sale of meats
on all other days except Sunday, from A. NJ.

THAT settles it." said member. "You
can't change an ordinance except by an ordi-
nance. Let's adjounn."

River RniIrond Nntes.

A contractor named johnson, who had a
contract for constructing two miles of the
southern end of the first division of the o.
r. Railroad opposite Claripgton, drew hi.
estimate" few days ago, and skipped out,
leaving his employees minus their months
wages. Messrs. Ge1. T. Mills g. Co. as soon
as they were apprised of the absconding Ct
johnson, promptly sent man down with
cash to pay the men and take charge of the
work. The promptness of Messrs. Mills &
Co. in thus making good to the men the
amount that their employer he'd sWindled
them out of is certainly commendable, and
cannot but gain for them the full confidence
Of their emplayes and the esteem OF the pub
lie generally.
Col. Robt. White made application in the
Moundsville Circuit Court Thursday last, to

Steam was discovered escaping from one OF
the boilers at the Monnd0ity Touring mills
yesterday, and after the fires had been drawn
out, and the boilers cooled down, an exami-
nation was made, which developed the fact
that each of the boilers had a weak place
near the front end, which was SO nearly eat
through that a very light tap of q hammer
was sufficient to knock large hole. Mr..
Pur asserts that portion of one of the
sheets was SO rotten that it was not stronger
than common tin, and why it did not give
way sooner is a mystery, as steam is kept M
| to pressure of from 20 10 so pounds 10 the
square inch. Workmen fro I Wheeling are
now repairing the faulty boilers.

K. Last aad wife, of Wheeling. paid, their
friends in this city a visit yesterday. Mr..
LISTS inclined TO think there is not much
prospect of an advance in wool. as the pro
duct this year is larger than ever, while the
factories are running light. He does not
thinbth the change in the tariff has had
any appteciable effect on the market, al
though there is considerable wool in bond
waiting to take advantage of the
reduction on July 1. The business of wool
growing is rapidly increasing in this
country, and West Virginia, especially is be-
coming great wool growing State. at So
cents most of the wool in this section would
be cleaned out, and much of it is well worth
it but it would not ipsy toltake the stock at
this clear through. Within the past week so
cents has been paid for some fancy clips.
The moral.of this would seem TO be for farm
els to take special pains to have their wool in
good condition, as quality and not quantity
bids fair to largely regulate future profits in
this business. 10

XIII ANNuAL COMMENCEMENT
OF the wheeling Public sehools-ons Of the B,.,
Glasses the Schools Ever Turned oat Makssits
Farewell Appearancs-So Flowers, but
Lots OF Morited Applause.

The most tingcommeneemento OF the
year, as we'll as the most important to the gen
eral public of Wheeling, gasthat of thepub-
lie schools, which came of at the Academy of
Music yesterday, in the presence of an audi
ence which densely packed the large hall
upst airs and down. Long before the hour
set for the exercises to begin every available
space was occupied by people, most of them
ladies, standing, the seats having been filled
with a rush as the door was thrown open. To
say that ths occasion was success does not
do the schools, the graduates and the teach
ers the credit which they eminently deserve.
1t was the most suggestive and pleasing COM
Increment Wheeling has seen this year.
None of the closing enteitainments of.the
higher institutions in the city gave the same
reason for satisfaction on ths part of the au-
dience. The stage was most handsomely
decorated with a.mass of fragrant and bri ;
liant flowers around the foot lights, skillfully
| arranged with view 10 harmony of colofs
| and relieved by the dark green or moss aud
evergreens. Above the semi circular seats
! for the class, which formed three rows across
| The stsge, swung festoon oteyergreen from
which hung seven large palettes of green
bearingthe names in gold letters of the sew
eraD districts, Washington being at the left
and Richie at the Eight. A,
The exercises were opened by q sparkling
new selection by the Opera House orchestra
which was Evidently in sympathy with the
occasion and never played better. The class
of music rendered was also unexceptionable
and the Instrumental interludes were by ne
means the least pleasing feature of the pr.
gramme.
