A Picture Of the Wrong Side of Life up In
the Second Ward.

A Picture Of the Wrong Side of Life up In
the Second Ward.
About four o'clock yesterday afternoon
there was q lively fight in q house in alley
C, in the Second Ward, between William
McManaway and q man named Mooney,
in which the former got decidedly the
worst of it. McManaway went before
Peterman and swore out a war
rant for Mooney, which Constable Stamp
attempted to serve. He secured Mooney
after q tough fight, and would have landed
him before the Justice, but two or three
of the prisoners friends interlered, beat
the Constable of, and rescued the prisoner,
who made his escape for the time being.
Later, however, Constable Lauchliu and
Bell arrested him and took him be
fore the Justice who committed him for
q hearing.
About the time Stamp was hav-
ing his fun with Mooney
q party of half drunken characters,
two males and two females made their ap-
pearance in the Market House, coming it
is said, from the same house in which the
row took place, and succeeded in attract
ing q good deal of attention, filling the air
with prOfane and obscene remarks, insult
ing paSsers-by, &c. About four O'Clock,
Officers Watson and Dunlap arrested
frankie Russell, for participating in a row
on Monday, and about the same time also
picked up Charles McManaway, landing
both of them in the lookup. MeManaway
was released on bail later in the evening.
The others Ofthe gang are still at large.
The house in Alley C., in which this row
originated, is said to have long been a
source of the most fragrant violations OF
the moral law, but for some reason it has
escaped being raided by the police. People
who live in the neighborhOod, and even
the police officers, tell n frightful story, a
recital OF which would scarcely be believed,
even by those familiar with the dusky side
Oflife, but which we are assured is strictly

FAUST AND MARGUERITE"

Its First Appearance at the Opera House
Last Eyening-"Measure for Measure"
A very fair audience greeted Mr.. Louis
Morrison and Miss Celia Alsberg mt the
Opera House, last evening on the occasion
of their first appearance in this city in
Faust and Marguerite" This is the
first time q dramatizatiOn of GOethe's
poem has ever been produced in Wheeling,
and those who saw it were rather at a
loss how to receive it, as ii is so different
from the drama Of the present day. But
suffice il to say that it IS a fairly strong
one and gives the actors an Oppor-
tunity to do some effective work,
while the climaxes are well drawn. Mr..
Morrison as "MephistopheleS is undOubt-
eddy an artist and he portrayed the tiend
inearnate in a finished manner Miss
Alsberg made a handsome and loving
Marguerite and in the strong parts she
wasfully up to the occasion. Mr.. Vessels rs
Faust was acceptable, with the eXcep-
ton of q little too much ranting in the
third act, while Mr.. Thompson rs "Valen-
tine did effective work. As Martha"
Miss Weaver gave the part its full value.
The balance of the cast was very salts
factory.
Tonight the company will present
Shakespeare Measure for Measure" its
first presentation in this city, with Mr..
Morrison as Angelo" and Miss Alsberg
Us Isabella" Wherever the company
has presented this piece, the press has
spoken highly oft.

THE RELIGIOUS MEETINGS
Now in Progress at the Chapline Street
Rink.

non vi TWICE ~ liz
Rink.
These meetings are rapidly developing
in power There was the same peculiar
spirit present last night which gave such
success to the meeting of the early sum-
mer. A number of men were at the altar,
among them young men whose stories of
blasted lives were inexpressibly sad. 1t
would move the hardest heart to listen to
these tales of dissipation and folly. The
work of saving this class is Oh of the no
blest in the world. 1t ought to have the
support of all Christian workers.
Miss Smith and Miss Sherman
can only stsy until Friday
morning. Every moment of the time
should be given to earnest religious work
on the part of the home workers. On
Friday an all day meeting will be held.
An effort will be made to enlist the help
of Christians of every name. Indeed a
cordial invitation is extended to all, to be
in every meeting. A programme Of Fri
day meetings will appear Thursday morn
ing. To-day at 10 o'clock q. M. Miss
Smith will hold a service in Engine House
No. 1.-At 3 o'clock p. m. a service will
be held in the Second Ward Market
House. In the evening there will be an
other service in the Chapline street Rink.
Will not all who can, attend all the ser
vices?

A Quiet and Elegant Wedding Yesterday
Afternoon,

A Quiet n Elegant Wedding Yesterday
Afternoon.
Yesterday afternoon at the residence of
the brides father, Mr.. Henry X. List, on
North Main Street, the marriage of Mr..
Edward Hazlett and Miss Jessie NJ. List
was sOlemnizcd in a very quiet and beauti-
full manner. Only the immediate rela-
tions of the couple were present, and at
2:3O o'clock, the hour set for the ceremO-
ny, they had assembled in the large north
parlOr Of the mansion, where in a
library recess Rev. X. F. Randolph,
pastor of the Fourth Street NJ. +. Church,
had taken his position. Promptly at the
time named the hall doors were thrown
open and the pair entered, the bride-eleCt
leaning upon the arm of the groom. They
proceeded directly to where the pastor
stood, and in the full aud beautiful service
of the Methodist church, they were made
mar and wife.
The lady was attired in a costume Of
soft creamy silk and certainly a woman
never looked fairer than she.
The groom wore a full dress
costume. After congratulations had
been rendered the bridal party and guests
partOok Of elegant refreshments served in
bursts best style. The mansion was GER
tainly q scene of beauty, being handsomely
adorned with natural flowers arranged in
an artistic manner, while the chandeliers
were hung with smilax. Mr.. and Mrs.
Hazlett left on the4 o'clock train over the
p. c. & st. L., for an eastern bridal tour,
and as they left the usual Omens of good
luck were thrown after them.
The bride is one of Wheeling's most
beautiful and accomplished young ladies
and q great fayOTite in the high social
circle which she adorns, while Mr.. Hazlett
is n of the pushing, energetic young
men of the city, holding the responsible
position of Secretary of the West Virginia
Natural Gas Company in Wheeling. The
best wishes of countless friends follow the
young folks on their journey.

their errors and this, with the addition oil
two wild pitches and a base on balls net
ted the visitors eleven runs, four OF them
earned.
Watsons pitched q beautiful game for
five innings but weakened badly IN the
next owing to unfortunate errors, most OF
them u~nexcusable. With proper care Oh
himself and q little disciplining, saeh as
can only be obtained in a professional
team, he has the making OF a hne pltcner;
Watsons' chief fault seems to be q
temper which displays itself whenever ms
support Is not what it should be-. de has
fine command of tie ball however, and
treat speed and is Improving with every
game. -
Westlake caught IN fine style consider
ing that is the first time he and Watson
ever PLAYED together; he also shows I'M,
movement over last years work, and VIII
make a good one il time.
Neither Joe White at first or Sol White
at second played M IN their nsnal StHno
ard, and their unfortunate errors at crlticai
moments were very cOStlS.
Nichol at short and George At third
played very we'll considering the fact that
they were not in their home positions.
The outield was very strong in every
particular and made several beautiful
catches Of different balls. -,
For St. Louis, Glasscock and Mappis led
in the field, the former having eight assists
without IN error and Mappis three put
outs and six assists. At the bat GlasScock
led with a triple and two singles followed
by Denuey with q triple and double and
Mappis with two singles. The game open
ed very auspiciously for the no ne team but
owing 10 poor running of Williams: and
George no runs were scored. 81 ~
In the fourth hits by Watson and
O'BIight, aided by errors, yielded three
runs aud the hopes of the home teams ad-
mirers were running high. Both teams
were BANKED in the next, the st. Louis
being retired on only three pitched balls.
In the seventh st. Louis secured eleven
runs and robbed the rest of the game Of its
interest. Both mines scored three runs in
the eighth and Wheeling was
BANKED in the ninth, st. Louis win
ming six to fourteen.
The playing OF the home team was quite
rs good rs expected and proves the fact
that we have the nucleus fora fine team
next year. McNichOls umpired u good
game. The attendance was about 700.

House, caused by a blaze in a stable in
the c of John Medick's meat shop on
Chapline, below Twenty-fourth street.
The department was promptly on hand,
but the material was so combustible that

The sparks from the fire endangered other
buildings in the vicinity, but fortunately
no other damage was done. The loss on
the stable is about $75.
