HcraIds the Coming of Winter aud In
duces AloraiizlAk.
Winter is here. The expected cold wave
has made its appearance, at last, and with q
vengeance. Early yesterday morning a
keen north wind set in, bringing with it
heavy leader clouds and greatly reduced
temperature. Several times it tried hard to
snow and about dusk the feathery fakes be-
gan to decend with great yigor. So winter
IS here. Not TO stay, but Just to visit. The
city ,shivered and the white jacket Of the
Plumed knight was highly suggestive of
the Boreal regions to which his party will
soon depart. The reporter shuddered and
drew nearer the blaze in his palatial quar-
,ers. as he moralized on the approach Of
Eipter Other reporters moralized also and
one OF them proceeds like this:
The rivers broad face is wrinkled and
.lpatured as troop of tiny white specks
came darling here and there i'll an undivided
way. and at last sink into the kark water
and disappear The river shudders, and
avs in its grim way to itself, "Snow. Inc
frost has spared most of the summer flo yers

its delicate trumpet uplifted, as II

Snow" The school boy, heavy eyed and
cross comes out upon the street ana sees
he white dots in the air dancing about he
throws up the cap which has covered his
nnthinking young head and shouts "Hur-
rah for the snow" Down the shaky stair
way which leads from his room in the dingy
upper story of the tenement house,
the workman out of work steps
slowly. A speck of moisture
alls upon his neck and he glances upward
and then hurries back, slams open the door
and in rough voice that has an angry,
complaining tone, he says to the ragged and
nareiooted woman who is busying herself
.i;h cracked earthenware and the frag-
ments Of scanty breakfast "Moll, its snow

cries and then the faces of both soften as
hey look at each other and at the wee bit
Of I, baby in the corner. The small sal
aried clerk who must be at the Office
early, feels a shiver of discomfort pass
over him as he buttons his shabby
coat and mittens, Snow! and Mamie $ not

and conductors, wrapped up in coils of old
coats and socks, look up at the clouds aud

ed robin. who was born over there in the
orchard, although it is only city orchard,
ut,ers an alarmed note and says to the
.hiciaGees and sparrows, Hello! snow.
'icod bye, YOU fellows"
Rrt this won't last The sky soon clear
Cd and the stars smiled down. Wheeling
will probably laugh under a bright sun, to-
day. and wonder if it really did snow, last
night.

THE AKRON CONCERT.
nAdmirable Performance Reviewed by a
COrreSDOndent,

nAdmirable Performance Reviewed by a
Correspondent.
Wheeling is certainly to be congratulated
Jr having in its midst such society as the
,rion. The concert on Wednesday evening
/ this well arranged club house was GER
ainly superb affair and may be consider
d as refreshing in the midst of political ex-
itement
Seldom, If ever, has Wheeling audience
istened to finer singing by male chorus
nan that of the Arion on Wednesday even
mg. With no desire to distinguish the diff
erent choruses il is pleasing to say that
he singers seemed to understand and know
ow 10 execute the effect Of each chorus.
If wish may be publicly expressed, it is
his, that the Arion repeat the chorus "alone
nd Battle Scene Which were certainly
-endered in style, rhythmic and expressive,
n manner not to be excelled by the best
ocieties of the country. To say any
hing in reference to the solo parts would
{ waste; the soloist, Mrs. Palmer, who ap-
feared to special advantage in voice may
well be considered the musical pride of
Wheeling.
The fine bass Of Diegmiller and the
charming, clear tenor Of Stencil, added ad-
mirably to the concert.
The overtures of Kramers Orchestra de-
serve credit, considering the number of in
struments; but they lacked the expression
and effect demanded and looked for on such
an occasion, although for dancing the or
chestra is favorite.
A repetition of the concert of the Arion
would offer rich treat to our musical peo-
pie. What say you Prof Schockey and the
Arion? Music.
