TO-NIGHT'S MEETING.
A LARGE AUDIENCE EXPECTED AT THE
OPERA HOUSE
To Hear Senator Ksnna Speak On Behalf VI the
Democratic observation-disclosures PO-
litcal Gossip.

United States Senator John E. kenna
will arrive in the city from Parkersburg
this morning, and this evening will address
the citizens of Ohio county, at the Opera
House, upon the political issues entering
into the present campaign and the bearing
this contest will have upon the great
struggle in 1888. Every preparation has
been made to ensure it a pleasant n
profitable evening to our people, n q
large attendance, irrespective Of party, IS
looked for. The speaker will be
escorted from his hotel to the Opera House
BY the Young Mems Democratic Club,
headed by Kramer's full band, and it Is
desired that every member of the Organlza-
ton be on hand at headquarters promptly
at I o'clock, in full uniform. The club
will make a short parade thrOughthe streets
in the central portion ofthe city, at 7:3O,
before calling for the distinguished visitor,
and as usual the members will make a
display and awaken enthusiasm all along
the line.
This meeting has been looked forward
to. ever since its announcement, with keen
interest by a large number of our citizens,
and especially by those whose political
faith is based upon the principles which
underlie the Democratic party. The SEN
ator's eloquence, his grasp of the political
situation as a whole, and the almost ineA-
hauStible store of facts, figures and anec-
dotes at his ready command, combine to
render him probably the most interesting
exponent of public affairs in the State,
and Just at this time, when the Democracy,
State and National, has demonstrated in
the most irrefutable manner its willingness
and ability to carry into practical effect
the principles and policies of the party,
his remarks will have a peculiar interest.
1t will be a great meeting, and will do
much to increase the majority for the
Democratic candidates all along the line.

THE SECOND CARRIER PIGEON

Arrives Safely, Early Yesterday Morning.
The missing carrier pigeon belonging to
Mr.. John. Friesmuth arrived at his pigeon
loft at TAO O'Clock yesterday morning after
its long flight from Wichita, Kansas. The
bird had suffered the loss OF most of its
tail feathers, and also quite u lot of plum
Q from its neck, but was otherwise I'M
harmed. 1t was very tired, however, and
was quite incapable of flying any distance.
The bird, as stated yesterday, is but nine
months old, and its feat stands without a
parallel in this county, and probably the
flight has never been equaled in the world.
1t measures twenty-six inches from tip to
tip of its wings, while its mother, which
came in Monay afternoon, measures twen-
ty-eight and One-half inches.
Mr.. FrieSmuth will send out a male
bird to Wichita in 4 week or ten days, rs
4 further experiment. He thinks the old
female bird which made the Wichita trip
can fly from Denver, Col, and he doubts
if il would fail to return to Wheeling from
any point in the United States. The pigeons
attracted o great deal of attention yes
terday, many ladies and gentlemen calling
To look al them.

BADLY INJURED.
Isaac L. Blanchard Falls Through n
HatChway.

Isaac l.. Blanchard Falls Through u
Hatchway.
About half past nine o'clock yesterday
morning while Isaac Il. Blanchard aged
about rs or 80 years and a resident OF
Pleasant Valley, was passing through the
paint store of Wilson and Chapman on
Main 5 treet, south of Twelfth, he acciden-
tally stepped into the open elevated hatch
way and fell TO to the cellar floor adistance
of about seven or eight feet sustaining a
general shaking up but fortunately break
ing no bones, so far as was known last
evening by the attending physician. The
old gentleman was quickly aided by the
employees of the store and
removed to the first floor, when
DIR. Bates was summoned. When the
Doctor arrived, in a very Few moments
after the accident, he found Mr.. Blanch-
ard to be unconscious, but he was soon re-
stored and removed in 4 carriage to the
residence of Mr.. James K. Acker, on Six
t9enth street, where 4 thorough examina-
ton of his person was made. No marks
or obrasiOn of the skin were found, except
a slight confusion ut the left shoulder, but
the patient complained a great deal ofpain
in his chest, and it is possible a rib is
fractured. Last evening he was resting
easily, and no serious consequences are
looked for although the accident is a
serious one to one so old.

TWO NUISANCES.

Locked Up.
About nine o'clock, last evening Officers
Lukens and Dunlap arrested two mel
named Noble and Nolan, in Thomas Per.
kin's barber shop, near the corner OF
Tenth aud Main streets, and locked them
mp. These worthless have been hanging
around the Second ward for the past two
days, creating minor disturbances, and
rendering themselves generally Obnoxi-
Gus. Early last evening Nolan crossed the
bridge to the Island and entering Keats
shoe shop, on Zane street, near the sus-
pension bridge, he abused Mr.. Keats
in an outrageous manner, causing that
gentleman to complain to the police. Of
ticer Lukens came over and traced his
man to Perkins shop, he and Officer Dun
lap went in and arrested him. In the
shop was Noble, who claimed tO'be q barber,
and who had been left in charge temper
arily by the proprietor. Glenn Moore, who

shop, and Dick Mansfield, the saloon

AN OHIO HORROR.
AN AGED COUPLE SUBJECTED TO PIENDISH
TORTURE BIZ BURGLARS.


It seems that the methods pursued by
the sObbers who subjected Elijah Marling
to such fiendish torture, two or three years
ago, are still prime fayorites with certain
lawless element in this portion OF the
country, a fresh instance Of the kind hav-
ing come to light yesterday. The victims
in this case, as in the others Of a similar
nature. are old and helpless, while the as
s~ailants formed a party Of half a dozen.
The Marliug outrage was duplicated in
this latest exploit of the deyilsin every re-
speet, even to the breaking open of the
door of the residence to be sacked without
the least regard for secrecy, and the bind
ing of the victims upon their beds while the
premises were being looted. The details
of the crime, as far as could be learned
yesterday, are as follows:
On Sunday night after John Parker, a
well-to-do resident Of Mt. Pleasant, had
gone to bed, six masNed and well armed
men took arail and battered down the
front door of his residence, and marched
in and oyerpOwered the old gentleman and
a lady servant, and proceeded at once to
ransaek the house in search of money.
Failing to find any valuables, one of the
crowd, who acted rs 4 leader and managed
the movement of the remainder OF the
robbers, commenced questioning the help
less old man concerning the whereabouts
of his wealth. Mr.. Parker persisted in
telling them that there was no money IN
the house, when the .iendish Williams com
menced burning his hands and feet by
lighting matches and holding them against
the bare places.
This same species of torture was applied
to the lady servant until both she and the
old gentleman had been horribly tortured,
and their hands and feet were almost
solid blisters. The heartless brutes
seemed to be very well acquainted with
Mr.. Parker's dealings, and n number OF
times asked the question, where is the
money you received from the sale Of cattle
TO Mr.. M%illigan?" After the torture and
search had been kept up nearly two
hours, the bandits concluded that no
thing could be gotten, and after tying Mr..
Parker and the lady securely to two beds,
departed, taking with them Mr.. Parker's
shot gun, rifle and a revolver, leaving
the weapons in a clump of trees near by,
their intention evidently being to hinder
any possibility OF the outraged man injur-
ing them in case he should get loose.
Mr.. Parker lives on the Jonathan
Binn's property, on the eastern outskirts
of the town, and the place is enclosed
by q very dense growth OF trees on all
sides, and the house is almost hidden from
the street. The two unfortunate people
were not discovered till late Monday,
and suffered meanwhile undesirable
agony from the wounds inflicted by their
tiendish tOrturers.

One of the Checklist Thefts Ever Perpe-

About half past seven o'clock last even-
ing one of the coolest thefts ever perpe-
trated in this city was committed in front
of Robinson & McConnaughey's oyster
and produce store, on Market street, near
the corner of alley 10. The proprietOrs
had left a large wire coop of chickens on
the sidewalk and at the hour named, while
the store doors were wide open and the
sidewalk crowded with people, two men
picked the coop up, it weighing, with the
contents, about 100 pounds, turned the
corner of Market street into alley 10, and
disappeared. The chickens were soon
missed and Officer Carney notified, who,
with Officers West and Duffy, succeeded
in tracing the thieves to the neighborhood
of Eoff and Nineteenth streets, where theil
trail was lost. The fowls were valued al
