CHICAGO, July IA The first tin ore yet
mined on the western hemisphere arrived
in this city to- day from the Black Hills
on its way east. The United States an
nually imports $30,000,O00 worth of tin,
of which nearly one-half is used in Chi
cago, and it is believed that when the
great deposits of the metal in the Black
Hills country, covering an area of 1000
square miles, are fully developed, not
only will the wants of this country be
fully supplied but the markets of the
world will draw largely upon that region
for their supply. The present shipment
is two carloads.

THE CELTIC UNION.

The fact that England, Ireland, Scotland
and Wales are peopled by two distinct
races is almost forgotten. A large part oil
the people of Ireland, Scotland and Wales
are descendants of the ancient CeltS, while
the English are chiefly of TeutOnic origin.
The Celts occupied the British Isles long be-
fore the invasion of the Romans SaXOns,
Danes and NOrmans.
The present election unites once more
the branches of the Celtic race in Ireland,
Wales and Scotland. Time works Won
drous changes in, the affairs Of men. This
coalition may be regarded ~ a turning
point in European history. The ancient
Celt never became the slave of the invader,
but chose rather to fall fighting bravely in
battle His descendants in Ireland, though
kept down, have never yielded, and have
doggedly protested against every act Of
tyranny.
A brighter future is in store for the Gel
tic race. Not many years hence the grand
principle that ''all men are created free
and euuaT' will be recognized throughout
the British Isles by Norman and Saxon rs
we'll as by Celt.

CLARKSBURG, w. VA, July 24.-The
question of building the court house has
again been postponed by the action of the
County Court. We do not propose to say
whether it was advisable to build or not to
build the court house, but one thing is I'M
questiOnably certain, that the lot should
not have been purchased, the plans and
specifications selected, advertisements
made and supervising architect employed
if the Court did not intend building. For
gettul of official responsibility and individ-
ual liability in case the records should be
destroyed, and even after a special levy
has been collected for the purpose, it again
pOStpOnes matter of the greatest interest
to the citizens of this county. We are in
formed that Commissioner Raymond re
fused to take any part in the matter.
Commissioner Van B. Davis has always
been supposed to favor the proposition, but
he too thought best tOpostpOne the matter.
Mr.. David Robinson cOntended that the
Court should determine whether the build
ing should be or should not be erected at
once, and asserted that 50 far as he was
concerned he thought the people of Harri-
son county should have 4 court house.
Quite an excitement prevailed here on
last Wednesday At the trial of man BY the
name of Piifferhng before the Municipal
Court, charged with whipping his wife.
Several citizens heard the disturbance, but
no one interfered. 1t occurred one even
ing this week about 10 O'Clock The fol-
lowing night circular WAS tackled to his
gate, signed ''Red Men," notifying the
gentleman what would be the result in
case he repeated his conduct of the night
before. Hickory witheS were also left as
an indication ofwhat was threatened. He
got off before the Court to the tune of
so fine and costs.
The people are jubilant here over the adj
ditiOnal appropriation of $50, 900 for the
completion of the Federal Building. Work
has already commenced.
Among the distinguished arrivals of the
week were Governor Wilson, Treasurer
Thompson, Auditor Duffy, Supt. Morgan
and Secretary of State Walker.

THE COMING TRI-STATE SOL
DIERS' REUNION.


DIERS' REUNION.
1t has been determined by the old sol
diers of West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania, to hold their triIState reunion on
Wheeling Island, September p This
will be a day of no small Importance, rs
Wheeling will witness the largest gather
ing of old soldier boys seen within the past
twenty years.
We feel confident that our citizens will
do what they can to give them . pleasant
welcome and add to the impressiveness
and enjoyment of the day. And indeed
much depends upon our citizens. Not
many good things can be had in these days
without mourning more or less
expense. A soldiers reunion is not an eX-
ception. When the reunion was held at
Cumberland, a city of less than II, 600 in
habitants, the citizens promptly put down
s., 500 toward defraying expenses and
offered to duplicate it if the reunion should
be held there again. Last year the eiti-
zens of Portsmouth, o., gave $1,000 and
considered it a good investment. And
when the committee appointed to wait
upon our citizens pass around, Wheeling
may be expected to plank down a good
round sum.
The committee of arrangements Is COM
posed of some of our prominent business
men, and all funds will be rightly ex-
pended. The money raised will be spent
in the city and the presence of 50 many
soldiers and visitors will bring no small
amount of money into our midst. There
will be mutual benefit between Wheel
ing and those that attend the reunion.

A NOVEL PLAN IN INDUSTRIAL
EDUCATION.

There has of late years been great de
mand made for industrial schools, 50 that
the hands rs we'll as the intellects Of the
youth could De trained. Principal Roe, Of
Minneapolis, sees this need, but also reeOg-
nizes the fact that the best way to learn to
do a thing is by doing it, and he has con-
ceived the following novel plan, as de
scribed by the Minneapolis TriLWRe.
He has taken pains to find places for
such boys rs would like to learn some form
of manual labor, and will allow them their
afternoons for such service. Thus, book
manufacturer has promised him to make
places for twelve boys, n house painter Is
going to employ several, and various trades
and industries will eO-Oderate with the
school authorizes in teaching school boys to
do real work. The fact that this employ
ment is in lieu Of the afternoon session Of
school, and that it is under the auspices Of
the school principal, will exeellently effect
its discipline. 1t will keep the boys
steadily at their tasks, and will
haze tendency to keep the
employers faithful in their duty to the
boys. We do not hesitate to assert that
effect upon the school work proper will be
good, and that interest in study will he
stimulated UnqueStiOnably the plan will
tend to keep boys in school; and if it is
faithfully pursued. for few years the re-
suit will be that a much larger proportion
of those who are promoted to the high
school from the grammar grades viii re-
main and graduate. They will leave
school with intelligent and vigorous
minds, with health preserved with daily
exercise and the recreation that comes
from change and variety of occupation,
and with knowledge Of how to make liy-
ing in an honest and useful calling.
This plan is certainly very practical
and inexpensive one, and eOmmends itself
to the people Of every city. Boys would
be kept strong and vigorous, and would
by the time they finish their school course
have practical knowledge Of trade.
Manual labor would he regarded with
more dignity and there would be less
drifting away into the overerowded profess
siOns.
