Grove railroad company, and James John

The flames spread rapidly, but the village
fire department was promptly on hand,
and, assisted by citizens, did good work,
checking the flames before the house was
entirely consumed. The Atlantic engine
also started out, butwas recalled before it
reached Fulton, the fire being out.

TIE cont1NG CONCERT
To be Given by the wheeling Opera House
Orchestrn.

To be Given by the Wheeling Opera House
Orchestra.
Reserved seats will be placed on sale at
Banners music store this morning for the
concert to be given by the Opera House
Orchestra at the Opera House next Mon
day night. This concert will unquestion-
ably be the finest ever given by this very
deserving musical organization. This Is
apparent from a glance at the superb pro-
gramme that has been arranged tnd the
list OF artists that will assist on this occa-
sion.
The Opera House on Monday night
should be filled with one Of the largest
audiences OF the season. For number oil
years past the Opera House orchestra has
labored hard to elevate the musical taste
in this city andit efforts have not been
in vain. Its nothing more than Just that
these efforts should be appreciated and the
orchestra encouraged to continue the good
work. In no better way can this be done
than by patronizing In q liberal manner
the coming concert. True, the orchestra
can not be compared to that Of Thomas,
any more than Wheeling can be compared
to New York; which fathers the Thomas
orchestra. Wheeling in q like manner
should foster and encourage the Opera
House orchestra and in so doing eventu-
ally increase and further improve it. It
Is home organization and the people
should take pride in It. 5f..
On the occasion OF the concert there
will be about IS pieces in the orchestra.
Prof. Hermann Shocky, Of this city, and q
numbered Pittsburgh musicians win as.
sist. The program embraces such gems
as the "Magic Flute" overture, two Of
D0niEetti's famous compositions, selec-
tions fromM elloecker's latest opera, Gas
parone,n which is becoming the rage, and
the grand fastasia, Shepherds Life IN the
Alps" It is rare collection of fine mu-
sic and will repay one TO heari 1t.

TuE HRADQuARTEgs CHANGED,

A resolution that the headquarters Of
the Association be removed from Pitts
burgh to Wheeling, was adopted without
any lengthy debate, so those present say.
4 prominent manufacturer said yester-
day that tho headquarters OF the Associa-
ton had been at Pittsburgh ever since the
organization ten years ago, and 1t was but
fair that they should be here for awhile at
least, especially in view OF the fact that
Wheeling Is really the leading nail manu-
featuring point In tho country, and much
moro convenient Of access to q majority Of
the mills than Pittsburgh.
That these claims for Wheeling are JUS.
tilted by the facts Is established by the

SMOKERS IN THE HOUSE.-"So the
White House is TO have another smoker"
said an old attache of that establishment
as he carefully nursed fragrant Havana
and watched the rings of smoke ascend
toward the frescoed ceiling. 81 see that
Mr.. Cleveland is smoker. Well, there
has been pretty constant smoking here
since Grant came in There was an in
terregnum, so TO speak under Hayes, who
did pot smoke, nor did any of the boys,
but with that exception the Presidents
since Lincoln have all been smokers.
Mr. Lincoln cid not smoke nor chew.
johnson did, so did Grant, so did Gar
field, so does Arthur, and so will Cleye-
land. There were great times among the
smokers when Grant came in. 1t seemed
~ though everybody here smoked then,
/ remember up in the Presidents room
at the Capitol, when he used to go up to
sign bills on the closing DAYS of the ses-
sion, the smoke was so thick that you
could cut it with knife, as the saying is.
No, Hayes did not smoke, but not be-
cause of any objection on the part of his
own wife, for think she rather enjoyed
the odor of good cigar. remember she
turned the cottage at the Soldiers Home
upside down one day looking for a cigar
for me, after had taken dinner with the
family there. She had seen me smoking
at my desk. and set out to find some
cigars there, insisting that l should
not be deprived of my after-dinner
smoke, but failed, for somebody had cap
tured all of them Washington Special.

THE SMALLEST EVER BORN. Mrs.
Charles Tracy, of Kingsbridge, on Mon
day gave birth to male child that
promises to be wonderful addition to
the world of dwarfs and midgets. 1t
weighs exactly eleven ounces, and is
but six inches long, but as full of lie
and gifted with as much lung power as is
usually found in babies of like age and
larger dimensions. It's parents are well
developed. and the three children born
to them before the present youngster
were of the regulation size. The sur
prised parents and the attending phys
clan are unable to account for the strange
freak OF nature. The baby's body could
be circ!ed by l4-year-old cbilds thumb
and index finger, The head. perfectly
formed, is about the size of crab apple.
It's mouth is SO small that it is unable to
partake of its patural nourishment, and
it tax its milk through small nipple,

WATERFOWL. WIS, JANUARY IA.
THE UNITED STATES SENA-
TORSHIP.

The situation regarding the United
States Senatorship in this state is prsctic-
ally unchanged. The friends OF the
two most prominent candidates, Gen.
Fairchild and Col J. G. Spooner, are
canvassing the matter, and as the time
approaches for the election the feeling
grows warmer among them. 1t is to be
regretted that railroad feeling has been
aroused on the subject Corporations
have the means at hand to command
men of ability, aud Col. Spoonsr possess
ing the requisite talent because the
attorney in the interest of the Northwes-
tern Railway and for years did efficient
work for his client as any lawyer should
do. When he had determined to become
q candidate for United States Senator he
resigned his railroad attorneyship so as
TO divest himself of all corporation ALI
apces. In regard TO corporations or
monopolies he stands to-day as free and
untrammeled as any man can. But his
candidacy has been taken up as North
western move and because of this Gen.
Fairchilds appearance in the field is
unfortunately charged to be in the inter
est OF the other great corporate body in
this state, namely, the Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul. The fact in relation
to Gen. Faircbild is that he has never
been connected in any way with that
or any other railroad company in the
state, and he is also entirely free from all
entanglements Of railroad or monopoly
character There is a great deal of sense.
less talk going on about the railroad con-
nections of both of these gentlemen. and
it ought to be stopped. 1t is admitted on
all sides that with either Gen. Fsirchild
or Col. Spooner in the Senate our state
would be ably served and the true in terests
of the people and the Nation watched
and guarded with fathfulness and care.
