THE great strike Of the MOnongaheis
riyer miners is said to be almost At On end
and six thousand miners will probably re-
sumo work next Monday. Tbs strike has
now lasted three months and has been one
Of the most determined on record. Though
the miners have not succeeded in obtain
ing the three cent rate for which they in
augurated the strike, they have gained the
assurance from the operators that the two
and onehalf cent rate will be maintained
till July l. The miners have lost 100000
in wages during the past three months.
Ii is very fortunate that the settlement has
been made, even if it IS not all that was
wished tor. At such tune as this 1t pays
better to make some sacrifice rather than
run the risk of mourning greater loss.

EXTENDING THE OHIO RIVER RAIL
ROAD.

nOADs
The Mason county Gazette says: The
building of the Ohio River Railroad
through our county will cost Sl4, 700 per
mile, sixty per cent. of which will be ex'
pended in the localities through which the
road will run, for labor, material and sup
plies. Our people need this money.
The Mason county papers are working
manfully to interest the people in favor OF
giving their support to extending the Ohio
River Railroad. The citizens Of five OF
the districts Of Mason vote November Is
on the question Of raising q subscription.
Public spirited men are holding meetings
at the school houses throughout these dis
tricts and are doing all they can to mould
public sentiment to IDEAS Of progress.
From the reports that come up, the prop
OsitiOn is gaining friends every day. 1t is
well for the people that it is 81. The
amount of subscription the court decided
should be voted upon is very small In
voting against this the people would de-
clare that they wished eternally to be con-
sisned to region of owls and bats.
1t has been repeatedly shown what bene-
its would accrue not only to the sections
through which the road will pass but to q
great norton Of the State. Thousands Of
dollars will be added to the taxable prop
erty of the railroad counties, the people can
have profitable markets right at home Tor
the bountiful products of their fertile soil
or can have easy access to the great mar
kets of distant cities and towns; msnutsc.
turing and mining enterprises that without
a railroad would be impossible can have
an opportunity to spring up and add to
the county's Welkh and prosperity. The
benefits would be almost legion and those
who are working so jealousy to secure
these deserve congratulations.
The REGIsrER, few weeks ago called
attention 10 the great Importance the
extension of this road viii be to Wheeling.
The manufacturers and merchants, espec-
islly, have great interests at stake. The
city should by all means have an outlet to
our State capital and to the southern and
interior part of the State, Now is the time
70 act Our business men should, through
correspondence with their friends in the
district, that vote on the subscription, urge
them to its support. It might well repay
some Of our citizens to visit those districts
and work with the people in favor of their
mutual interests. Nothing should be left
undone for the success Of this important
enterprise. The time is now short.
Wheeling cannot afford to let this OpPOr-
tunity pass.

TWO GREAT RAILROAOs.

The Pennsylvania railroad Is now trying
10 gain control of the Reading road and
the Canadian Pacific ia seeking a monop-
oily OF all the railway lines cas- Of Montre'
al. The actions Of these two great com
psnies signify much. The deals that have
recently been attempted in Pennsylvania
and their probable results has been the
subject OF much unessiness on the part OF
the people. But the monopoly the Cana
dian Pacific will without doubt form in the
near future win be one Of the greatest on
the continent.
The Canadian Government feeling the
great need of railways to connect her scat
tered settlements has been granting
subsidies to the company and dealing out
with a lavishh and nearly everything asked.
The Parliament has no! lessened in its
Hberality, and during the coming winter and
at other times in the future other priv
legss and benefits will doubtless be award
ed. Meanwhile the monopoly is fastening
its fangs upon the railroad system and is
gaining such a hold that almost death
struggle will be necessary to make it loosen
its grasp.
This great railroad system is not so I'M
uortant 10 us as those near home, but from
the signs of the present it may prove q
greater power in the control Of the Cana
dian Dominion than many systems COM
bined could exercise in the United States.
The cannon ball may shatter the fragile
ship, but in striking the staunch iron clad
its momentum would be as Intellectual as q
CHANGING pebble.

n1R. BEEcaER's EULoGY on A GREAT
+ MERCHANT.

mnnbnANAf
Perhaps no merchant in the land was
more widely known and more respected
than the late Horace B. CLAgLIS, whose
funeral occurred in Brooklyn last Tuesday.
He was g member of Rev. HENRY WARD
BEkCHER's congregation. The following
from the sulogy pronounced over his re-
mains by Mr.. BEEcHER may prove OF In
terest to many OF Mr.. CLAFLIS's sequAint'
anees among the merchants Of Wheeling :;
Mr.. ClaAin lived almost to the fnal sp-
pointment of life, according TO the tsalm.
ist-a ripe old sge-snd to the end looked
80 juvenile and 80 buoysnt that one would
not suspect thst.by q quarter of century,
he was 20 old. He has run his race, he
has fought his battle and has gained his
victory. Early in lite it hiss pleased the
Divine Giver 10 unite him with q compsn-
ion who has ever since been one OF ais CHIEF
sources of comfort, aud made his home his
garden Of flowers, so that TO him home has
been the pleasantsst place that earth has
ever known. And entering upon lie oil
r;valries and conflicts be has gone through
the forty or fifty years known and read oil
all men, for there Is not on the frontier,
nor in any intermediate village, nor any
part or section where craft is conducted,
that the name Of Horace B. Clatiin is moi
as familiar as a household word; nor do
believe that in that number there can be
found one man 80 base or low es to speak
one diserediting word Of bis whole career,
He was so much to me that | almost
feel that | an performing the services IN
nv own house. It's wellnigh forty years
that he came to Plymouth Church-tht
frat Sabbath that / preached there; snC
from that time to this-torty stormy years
forty years in which discussion ragged every
where, division everywhere took place, thu
( whole land was deluged IS it were with baC
blood from which there came out the mos
extraordinary war in its history through
these years Of tempest, aud CT peace again
and general prosperity he has never LET
us nor forsaken Us. His loyalty has beei
as steady as the course of the stars. ID
has been to me refuge. There never wa
q dag so dark that he had not cheer TO
himself and for others. | think | may sa..
he never abandoned a friend until frien'
abandoned him. Through good repor
and evil, in good fortune and in disaster
be was loyal, and yet the most unpreten
tious of men. To all public institution
of Brooklyn he was liberal donor-alway
| in a modest aud, il possible, concealed
way. I will not speak Of his beueyolenc
with the churches he helped nor of thos'
he actually rescued from destruction, o
which no word has been spoken publicly.

PRESERVING GLASSWARE.
How China and Glassware should be
Taken Care of.

One Of the most important things is 10
season glass snd china TO sudden changes
of temperature, so that they will remain
sound after exposure 10 sudden heat or
cold. This is best done by placing the ar
ticle in cold water, which must gradually
be broughtto the boxing point, and then
allowed TO cool very slowly, taking several
hours to do l. The commoner the mater
isls, the more care in this respect Is re-
uuired. The very best glass and china Is
always well seasoned, or annealed, before
it ia sold. II the wares are properly sea
soned in this wsy they may DE washed in
boiling water without iesr Of fracture, ex.
cept in frosty weather, when, even with
the best snnesling wares, care must be
taken not to place them suddenly IN
too hot water. Ali china that has any
gliding upon II may on no account be
rubbed with cloth Of any kind, bat mers.
II rinsed frs. ia hot and atterWsrd in cold
water. and then left to drain till dry. II
the gliding is very dull and requires pol
ishiug, it may now and then rubbed with
a soft was leather and little dry whiting;
but this operation must not be repeated
more than once q year, otherwise the gold
will most certainly be rubbed of and the
china spoiled. When the plates, etc, are
away in the china closet, pieces Of paper
should be placed between them to prevent
scratches on the glaze or painting, as the
bottom of all ware has little particles OF
sand adhsring to it, picked up from the
oYea wherein it was glazed, The china
closet should be in dry situation, as a damp
closet will soon tarnish the gliding Of the
best crockery.
In a common dinner service, it is a
great error to make the plates too hot, as
i invariably cracks the glaze on the sur
face, if not the plate itself. We all know
the RESULT comes apart; nobody broke
i" at was cracked before, or cracked
long time ago" The fact is, when the
glaze is injured, every time the things
are washed the water gets to the interior,
swells the porous clay, and makes the
whole fabric rotten. In this condition
they will alse absorb grease, and when ex-
posed to further heat the grease makes the
dishes brown and discolored. If an old
ill.used dish be made very hot indeed, fat
will be seen TO exude from the minute
assures upon its surface These latter re-
marks apply more particularly to common
wares.
Asa rule warm water and soft cloth
are all that is required to keep glass in
good condition; but water bottles and wine
decauters in order to keep them bright,
must be rinsed out with little muriatic
acid commonly known as the spirits Of
salt. which is the best agent for removing
the fur" which collects in them. This
acid is far better than ashes, sand or shot,
for ashes and sand scratch the glass, and
if any shot is left in by accident il is poi,
sonous. Richly cut glass mus! be cleaned
and polished with soft bruch, upon
which little fine chalk or whiting is put;
By this means the luster and brilGsncy are
o preserved.
