A Place for the Lovers of the Beautiful
Personal Points.
Special telegram to the Register.
Mt. LAKE PARK, Md, July THE
beauties and advantages of Mt. Lake as q
summer resort and place for public gath
erings, can scarcely be exaggerated. Loca-
ted twenty-eight hundred feet above the
sea, on an extensive and almost level
plateau of miles in extent the air is pure,
fresh and healthful at all times. On the
hottest days n brisl; breeze is in constant
motion. The Park, consisting OF eight hun
dred acres, is about twO-thirds covered
by a fine growth of stately Oaks-a verita-
bic temple of the Druids. The lover of
nature in its beautiful form can be fully
satisfied by the constant variety OF
scene furnished by the TIMBER
with here and there Il patch
of brilliant-hued wild flowers-flOwers
weeks since out of bloom on lower alti-
tudes, and many peculiar to this locality,
the Philadelphia Lily, the Painted Cup, a
rare flower, the larger varities Of Veronica,
the PeustemOn the evening Primrose, and
Others are found in great prOtusiOn. The
drives around the Park, to Oakland, to
Deer Park and to Crystal Spring, abound
in beautiful scenery, and furnish recreation
for the evenings. In all parts of the wood
ed portion of the Park we find
elegant, tasteful cottages, about one hun
dred in number. Forty of these are al
ready occupied for the summer. Those
now here from Wheeling are Mr., G. w.
Connor, Robt. Luke's family, ID. c. List,
Jr., and Z. J. Stones family.
Abundant accommodation is furnished
by the four hotels now in operation. The
best and most pleasant of these, rs to lOca-
tion, arrangement and management, is the
Allegheny House, kept by Mrs. l.. +. Bul-
lard, with accommodations for fifty board
ers. The Park Hotel, II. II. Nanmeter,
with accommodations for seventy; Park
Dining Hall and Grace Cottage, are all
well managed houses.
There is no place equally convenient OF
access to Wheeling people where better ad-
vantages for spending the summer months
pleasantly are afforded.
Among the arrivals to-day are President
f. NJ. Turner, of the West Virginia Uni
versity; Prof. W. p. Wiley, A. l.. Purin-
ton, of Parkersburg; Gen. John Eaton,
Commissioner of Agriculture; Prof |. c.
White, who has cottage, and 7. Z.
Hodges.
The Teachers Association is the object
of interest this week, and the excursion tO
Luray Cavern is booming. If one hundred
persons 90 the fare for the round trip will
cost but S4.20.
General Eaton spoke pleasantly to the
teachers to-day. The principal topic O'
discussion was the Normal Schools.

THE SWITCHMEN.
THE LATEST MOVE IN THE CHICAGO LAKE
SHORE STRIKE.
An Extensive Boycott Inaugursted Against
The Working SwiGhmsn---TradsSmen
VIII Not Accept Their Patron
age---Gsnsral Labor News.

CHICAGO, July THE Lake Shore Com
pany continues to move freight without
opposition from the striking switchmen,
although every train so moved has guard
of armed detectives. A train was working
in the stOckyards this morning and no
trouble with the packers and cattlemen,
the acknowledged allies of the strikers,
was experienced. Almost every one in the
town of Lake sympathizes with the switch
men, and the new men, detectives and re-
porters, come in for full share Of abuse.
Anlextensive boycott has been inaugurated
against all of the men who go with the
train, and not tradeSman in the vicinity
of the stock yards will accept patronage
from them. Half dozen reporters who
went into small grocery on FOrty-seventh
street were informed that they could buy
nothing, as the people did not like it. Half
a dozen restaurants and saloons extended
the same reception, and it was discovered
that the boycott had been made universal
in the neighborhood.

New YORK, July THE boycott now
being waged against Ehret's beer and
Thesis Alhambra Concert Hall and the
picnic grounds where Ehret's beer is dis
pensed is the talk among the labor unions.
The action of the Central Labor Union
and the Cigarmakers' International Union
in condemning the course Of Messrs. Ehret
and Thesis, and Judge Barrett and the
Jurors indicate that organized labor has
taken bold stand. Funds are being raised
to carry the cases of the convicted boycott
ters to the upper courts and to provide Tor
the support of the families of the men who
were lately sentenced tO.prison. The Brook
lyn Central Labor Union has also pledged
its support to the New York Central La
Dor Union.

ionists has been called for this evening at
Cooper Institute by the JOurneymen Bakers
Union, Bartenders Union, Walters Union,
Progressive Cigarmakers Union, the Carl
Sahm Club and the SOci2listic Labor Party
to protest against the conviction and sem
tence of the boycottersin the case OF ThelSs.
Trecy & Russell have refused to accede to
the demands of the Ale and Porter Brewers
Union, and quiet boycott is being waged
against the firm, who refused to settle with
the Arbitration Committee OF the Central

Special Telegram 10 The Register.
PARKERsBURG, July THE expose"
of the Goff-Elkins- Menager circular in the
REGISTER created a fearful sensation
among the select of the BObtail convention.
Conclaves, eaucuses (intermixed with cuss-
es of a more personal nature) were numer-
GUS. The opinions expressed by the ke-
publicans were many and various, but un-
fortunately, not having the cue from head
quarters were not all harmonious.
Several prominent Republicans impres-
sively used this expression on the streets:
Damn Jim Menager; he never did have a
bit of sense" Another said: "Alenager
planned the last campaign"
Ifthis is a fact could it not be equally
true that he had authority to plan the present
one?
Others blamed Hutchinson, whom they
believe to have lost the circular, and
damned his carelessness.
The State Journal came out last night and
lamely excused the matter by saying the
meeting was declared ''off." Then there
was to have been a meeting? But If 1t was
declared of" Hutchinson, prominent
man on the bObtail list, was not among it,
as he was upon the point of writing an ex-
cuse.
Again they are particularly impressive in
their assertions that Gen. GOff and ex-COn-
federate Elkins had nothing to do with it.
Too thin, boys, Jim Menager and Others OF
the Bobtails, were in Washington num-
Der of times lately as were also

gentlemen to deliver that vote am aware,

will be no delivery of the goods. They
will not again be sold or compromised by
decayed promises of rotten party. Their
lesson was well learned at the last election.

Hop Crop a Failure in New York.

CASAJOHARIE, n. Y, July by con-

timated that the hop crop this fall viii
not be one-quarter of the average yield.
Three weeks ago the prospects were
never better, but now the yards are liter
ally covered with lice, English flies and
honey dew. Either appearing at this stage
of the vines growth augurs failure of the
crop. OF eighteen yards near Sharon
Springs visited, none had escaped
their rayages. The leaves are dry ana
eurled up. Growers who depend wholly
upon their crop are very despondent.
Where four and six cents were offered for
last years hops three weeks ago, now 10
and is cents are obtained. Very few old
hops are IN growers hands.
