WHEELING, Mo. Nov. 10; 1884,
Ed. CRIsIs:-It seems like winter to-
day and If this weather lasts long it will
be discouraging to the fam who
have not got their corn gathered and
there seems to be any amount of 1t

Business in Wheeling seems to he
quite lively. The merchants are hav-
ing Il good trade, and the mechanics are
busy.
We don't hear much about Thanks
giving or Christmas here yet, but then,
we haven't got over "election" sufii-
ciently yet to think Of much else.
Miss Minnie Stewart and Miss Lou
Snyder of this tip. left Sunday, for Stan

Some fields of corn here will aver

The Vanderbilts Dancing. Master.

l"Unclc Rill'N' New York Letter.
How would YOU like to stand the Van
derbiltS in a row and make them hop.
skip and jump Just aS you pleased? The
man who does this is about the Oddest-
looking fellow IN town. His real name
is Robert Manuel Smith, but he doesn't
Use the Smith part of it except to pro-
vide Il middle letter, for he calls himself
Robert S. Manuel. He used to be an nc
tor in small and rather comic way,
hut his heels soon became more talent
cd than the remainder of him promised
ever to be, and he opened school of
dancing.
1t is as n tcrpsichorcan instructor that
he directs the movements of those Van
CcrbltS who learn to dance. He has hair
in abundance, and Of Il yGllowiSh white;
his features are inimtable, which is Il
fact not to he greatly regretted, and his
gait suggests that il was acquired in
some place where the sidewalks are pay
ed with eggs. II he succeeds IN Impress
ing his whole individual style on all his
Vanderbilt pupils, then the family will
become the most distinctive for man
nerS Of any in New York. How he got
the job Ihavc not been able to find out,
but he has had it several years, and it is
said to he profitable. His income is cs-
timatcd at $4,000 Il year.
His pupils from the Vanderbilt fami-
ly,in its various branches number about
twenty, and range from 3 years to 80 in
age, The lessons are usually given in
William HIS big residence, and they
have just been resumed for the season.
Three new quadrillcs and some modiii-
cations of the waltz have been approv-
cd in convention of fashionable dane
ing masters, and with these the young
Nandcrbilt's are being made familiar.

pertinent Of children, and that is why,

CLEVELAND is elected and we
are glad Of il. Not that we prefer
Cleveland to Blaine or the Dem
ocratic to the Republican party but be-
cause we believe that the national sue
cess of the democrats this campaign,
gives the Greenback party . chance.
After the election in 1890 we came to
the conclusion that the Grcenback par
ty could not win, that is, could not get
control of Congress until the democrat
ic party got control. Our reasons for
this were that republicans though sick |
and tired Of their own party would not
leave it and join the grecnback party
for fear such action on theirpart would
let in the "rrbe democrats rs they
termed them. The democrats would
not leave their party, and join the
Grcenback party, because they wanted
to give the old party trial"
Now that the republican party is
thrown out of power, and the thing
they feared the democrats getting pow
er-iS accomplished and can't be help
ed, the republicans will largely come
into the Greenback party. They now
have no reason to stay out Of it.
"Thc old party" is being tried. Much
is expected Of the democratic party by
the democrats. 1t is expected by dem
ocrats that their party will now bring
good times; will lcgislatc for the peo-
Pile and not for the money power.
We say they will be disappointed. Their
, hopes will not be realized. The disap-
