IT is a notable fact that thus far in the

been appointed to a Federal office. The

very vew Buffalo Democrats have thus

An Exciting Episode In East wheeling.
Yesterday Afternoon.

An Exciting Episode In East wheeling,
Yesterday Afternoon.
East Wheeling furnished an exciting little
incident yesterday, which attracted con-
siderable attention in certain circles of so
cisty. An East End gallant has for some
months been devoted to q pretty and petit
maiden, despite the objections OF the latter's
parents, who strenuous'y objected to the
suite. The couple met by appointment for
several months on the sly, and after q
short courtship determined to wed
in spite of the objections Of the old folks.
Yesterday was finally set as the happy day
and West Alexander the goal where their
intentions should be carried out in a legiti-
mate manner. At noon yesterday the
young man hired a buggy and driving to a
rendezvous picked up his lady love and
started out the road. Shortly after they
had departed, the father of the bride secur-
ed o pointer on the scheme, and having 9
rig, started in pursuit Of the runsways.
The parent pressed his horse to all possible
speed, but apparently the fugitives "smelled
a mo1se," and did likewise, 8 the father
arrived at "Gretna Green" Just twenty min.
utes too late, the knot having been tied and
the newly matched pair being Just in the
act of leaving Squire Mayes residence,
when the painting animal he drove pulled
up at the door. AS objections, under the
circumstances, were out of the question,
the stern parent melted his wrath and for.
gave the runRways.

A SAD CASE.

A Destitute Family Which Should Receive
Attention.
A sad case of restitution has come to the
attention of the REGISTER, and we trust the
proper persons will at once take steps to
alleviate the distress. The family referred
to is that Of Mrs. L. ReyboId, who has been
living on Eoff street near Forty-irst. On
the sixth day of November, 1884, her hus.
band fell from the roof OF a house in East
Wheeling, and received injuries from which
he died three days later, and since that time
the mother, although doing what she could
to maintain herself and seven children, has
gradually been falling into poverty. Her
two Oldest boys were nail packers in one of
the mills, and as long as they had work they
we're able to materially assist in keeping the
wolf from the door, but for the past two
months they have had nothing to do. A
few days ago the family we're turned out of
doors by the landlord, and since that time
they have been living in a miserable stable
near the Ferry, a structure which is in such
bad condition as to expose mother and
babes to the rain and storm. She has been
receiving we are informed, the p~ittance of
one dollar a week from the county, but this
is, of course, insufficient 10 support her, and
The case appeals to the ~sywpathies Of the
community.

4 LIVELY DEBATE.

Moons Session.

4 Pitt>burSer's Report of Friday After
moons Session.
Speaking of Friday afternoons session Of
the Amalgamated Convention, the CORE
spoudent of the Pittsburg Dispatch tele,
graphs his paper as follows:
This afternoons session of the National
Convention OF the Amslgsmsted Associa
ton was the ivliest OF the week, and mar
rowly escaped being characterized as 8
riot. Shortly after the convention was
called TO order the Wage Committee pre-
serted their report through Secretary Mar
tin This report was read amid q howl Of
~disarproval Almost every delegate was on
his feet at the same time opposing the reporr
in q most emphatic manner.
We wan 10 20 to work, and must have
a fair scale. The advantage is always on
the Pittsburg side, wss the chorus OF tn
Western delegates.
We will not submit to a reduction in the
sheet iron scale, if we never go to work,
emphatically declared Charley Kaufman,
the strongest and most vigorous fighter for
q COMPUTATION Of last years wages on sheet
iron. Mr.. Kaufman was a member of tn
Conference Committee, and It 8 through
bis uutiring energy that the sheet iro"'
scale remained the same.
Above the din and confusion was heard
the voice Of The digni6ed President calling
for order. 1t was without avail, but when
his towering form rose six feet on tn
rcs'rum, and Mr.. Wiehe. in q commanding
voice demanding order, with a succession
Of raps with the gayel, the excitement sub
sided. The giant puddler had once more
won q victory. He then insisted on the
discussion being conducted orderly, with
only one speaker on the floor at the same
time. The debate was resumed; plans
we're suggested and voted down. kilograms
were sent to sheet rollers in Pittsburgh for
suggestions. None Of the officers or promi
nent men could be reached,
This question can be arranged ~satisfsc.
torily to both sides, and il is time something
was done" said a delegate. THE sheet
iron rollers must abandon their association
or leave the Amslgamsted Association
These two organizations conflict, and are
the main cause of much Of the trouble
The speaker was loudly spplauded, and
seemed to have voiced the sentiment OF
the entire convention.
A motion was promptly made-to expel
the sheet iron workers from the association
unless they abandoned their organization.
The motion was carried with but little dis
eussion.
A special committee was appointed for
the purpose of redistricting the country.
Since the secession of the nsilers some OF
the districts are stronger than others. 1t is
proposed to make q grand change and equal
lie the number of men in each district.
