The following paragraph about Wheel
iug's well known townsman, Professor
Birch, appears in the editorial correspond
ence OF the Davenport, Iowa, Sunday
Democrat, dated on board the steamer Rio
do Janeiro, six days out from San Fran
cisco:
On our passage list also, is the name OF
Mr.. John NJ. Birch, late Superintendent
OF Schools at Wheeling, w. Va, who goes
to Japan, charged by your government
with affairs OF the consular office at Ma.
Easaki. Mr.. Birch Is q young man Of
seven and twenty, literally educated, Of
fine business instincts aud pleasing adj
dress, who, being single and OF genial
temper, is highly popular among US all,
and certainly with the young ladies,
among whom he Is in perplexing demand.
That he has seen 1t to leave his home and
20 into solitary exile, in that far-of, out
of.the-way port for four long years, seems
a marvel, but since these places must be
filled, 1t Is proper that worthy and compe-
tent material should be chosen.

From Bqttimore lnltriean, September %, 1885.
The dress reiormers and those who ad,
vocate the abolition OF the Corsets as an
article Of women's apparel will be dismay-
ed at the enormous increase in the manu-
iaeture and sale Of corsets. There are now
no less than ten or twelve large establish
ments in the United States devoted ex-
clusively to the manufacture OF corsets OF
the better quality. Their capital ogre
gates millions Of money, and oil the manu-.
lecturers OF the cheaper grade If goods
there is seemingly no end. The Thorn
son Glove Fitting corset, manufactured by
Thomson, Langdon & Co., oil New York,
which is sold BY all first-class dealers in
the United States, is gaining In popular
favor each season, and at the present time
the orders are far in advance Of the sup
ply. Whether or not corsets are injurious
TO health will continue 10 be vexed
question with theorists until the Goddess
Of Fashion DEGREES their abolition. Mean
while, any article which adds TO the
beauty and comfort OF the female form
will continue in favor until the goddess is
dethroned. Messrs. Thomson, Langdon
& Go. recognize this fact, and they make
more than thirteen different styles OF
Thomson's Glove-Fitting, two of which
are with extra long waists, in order that
every demand OF comfort and beauty may
be met. Competent judges have pro-
nounced them superior to all others, and
they have obtained the highest awards at
all the worlds great fair and exhibitions.
The latest honors is the First Degree Of
Merit at the New Orleans Exposition.

a careful examination OF the votes fol
Gas Trustees in the joint session OF Coun'
Gil Tuesday evening shows that, paradox.
ical as it may seem, four of the candidates
voted for did receive majority Of all the
votes cast, and there was no mistake in
the result as computed and recorded by
the clerks. The general expression yes
terday among conservative men Of both
parties was one Of regret at the result Of
the election. Democrats as well as re-
publicans expressed sorrow that the sol
idly Democratic Board had been elected.
Meeting Hon. N. B. Scott, President OF
the Central Glass Company, and former:
!y President Of the second Branch Of
Council, an ISTRLLIdENcER reporter asked
him what he thought Of the solid action
OF Council on the previous night.
~ regard the election oil an entire Board
OF Democratic Gas Trustees as great
mistske," replied Mr.. Scott. ga business
body of that character ought not to be
made partisan affair. When ! was in
Council the case Of Frank Heaiy, who
had been dismissed from the Fire Depart
ment, came up on a motion 10 reinstate.
There was tie vote. knew that he was a
Democrat and knew why he had been
dismissed from the force, but l also knew
that he was one Of the best fremen in
Wheeling and Tor that reason l cast the
vote which reiustated him. / mention
this merely to show theRpiritwhiCh think

Captain Rolf, one OF the newly elected
Trustees, know well. l have business
relations with him, and have always
found him very Intelligent business
man. In the conduct OF our affairs he does
not ask whether man isa Democrat or d
Republican. II he is honest and capable
that is enough. ] think that you will find
that Capt. Rolf will take the same feeling
into the Gas Board. ! do not believe that
any efficient ompIoye will be put out Of
his place by Capt, Rolls vote. ! think
that he vii! be as careful in that as he 10

THE MoNIIOR BURNED.
A FIro Of Unknown oriEln-a Severe Loss to
Its Owners.


A FIro Of Unknown origln-1 Severe Loss to
Its Owners.
About 9 o'clock yesterday morning the
well known tow.boat Monitor, while at
the Pittsburgh Coal Works, n short dis
lance below Bellaire, was burned to the
waters edge. She had taken refuge there
from the heavy storm that prevailed about
dusk last Tuesday evening and had tied
up there for tho night. Just how the fire
started the stories differ; some say that a
lamp fell IN the cabin and exploding
set fire to the light upper works. Another
report is that live Goals rolled ont from
under tho furnaces and set fire to the deck
and that the breeze soon caused the flames
to lick the upper works and make any q.
fort to quench the fire au impossibility.
The crew were awakened Rs soop as the
fire was discovered and all made their es.
cape, though two or three OF them had
barely time to get ashore.
The burning steamer was cut loose as
soon IS all were of, in order to cave other
steamboats lying near. She drf!ed across
the river where she burned to the edge
and then sank. What her loss is estt-
mated at or whether there was any insur-
auce on her is not known. -
The towboat was formerly the property
OF the Monitor Towboat and Lumber
Company, which recently assigned. At
the assiguee's ealo the steamer was
bought in by W. ]. W. Cowdeu, trustee,
and in whose name the steamer is at
present enrolled in the Office Of the Sur
yeyor OF the Port. 1t is understood, how
ever, that Mr. Cowden had either sold or
partially effected sale Of tho boat to
Capt. Davis, Bellaire saloon keeper, and
some Wheeling parties for about $1,000.
Capt Davis was on board the steamer at
the timo CT the fire and narrowly escaped
being suffocated by the smoke.

and Crossen lived near each other, on
farms which adjoin, On the day Of the
murder James W. Coon, q younger brother
OF CHARLES, went out squirrel hunting. In
the course Of his rambIs he happened 70
pass through the field where Crosseu was
blowing in wheat. A conversation be-
tween the two ensued. After talking for
awhile Crossen asked Coon II he was not
brother of Charles. Receiving an affirm
alive reply, he ordered Coon out OF the
Geld, and in the course Of few words
struck at him. Coon then hit him, knock
ed him down and kicked him while pres.
trate. The Psrkersburg State Journal gives
the following report OF the affair:
Charles Coon, the elder brother, was
at work on the opposite hillside, about 3O0
yards away, and saw the eight. lie yelled
10 his brother to "let up" and come away
from Crossen. This his brother started to
do, when Crossen sent his boy to the house
Tor his revolver. Young Coon started for
his own side OF the line fence, and Crossen
having secured his weapon tried to inter
cept him. Charles saw his brothers. dan.
ger and ran down to the fence, yelling to
his brother to take a roundabout way as
Crossen with the revolver was trying to
head him OIL. In the meantime Crossen's
dog had jumped the fence aud was making
mince meat out Of Coon's dog. Charles
Coon was separating them when Crossen
came up behind clump Of willow0, and
Cred shot at him but missed his aim.
Charles started TO run, when Crossen
again fired. This time the bullet struck
him on the left forearm, making a slight
flesh wound.
Coon caught the hunting rida from his
brothers. hand, who had come up by this
time, and turning quickly around fred at
Crossen, who had mis- revolver levoled at
him for third time. The bali struck him
in the forehead Just below tho hair, and
Crossen fell to the ground fatally wound
ed. Coon went TO the house, informed
his wife OF what he had done and imme-
diately gave himself up to the authorities.
For long time past there has been bad
blood between the men. Crossen on
several occasions has threatened to kill
