Wheeling Should Have n Gas Frrpa2'
Built for the Purpose.
There is every prospect that the nigh
soil aud garbage furnace will be 90. Il
is understood that Smith, the gas furnace
man, will erect a suitable furnace on the
plan Of his heating furnaces, large enough
10 consume all such fifty in the city, a. q
cost of about $1,000. Health Officer Gar.
rison has written letters to the Health
Officers Of other large cities asking their
mode of destroying fhh. From answers
received, it ia learned that not one Of them
have the furnace system, or have they ever
tried il. Some OF the writer's stated that
they were glad to hear Wheeling was tax.
ing an active step in the matter; that
furnaces had been talked of in their
cities, but had never been tested.
Il has been fully demonstrated hare e.
ready by practical experience that filth can
be consumed by burning, and. with the aid
of natural gas, at very small expense to
the city. Shoa!d Wheeling take the lead
IN this matter aud show that the thing can
be doae, TO doubt that many, il rot slI, of
the large e,;iss of the East and West Eosid
follow in her wake. There is no reason
Why We should not have such furnace.
The Health Committee could nov haudily
have that 5000 which was gwen il for
that purpose year or so ago. The com.
mittee will hold meeting this week and
discuss the matter.

ment against convict Isborin cigar making

throughout the State.
Nj. n. REILLY, one of the Board OF Di.
rsetors of the Penitentisry, said yesterday
that the contract vito Mr. Little, entered
into on Wednesday last, only called for
the labor of twelve women aud tewweak
or feeble men, the number lot exceeding
seventeen ct eighteen in all. The stiPu'
lated price was twenty-five cents per day.
Mr. Reilly thought the Board could do
nothing else than mskethe contract, as
there Wss no adequate appropriation made
by the Legislature for the maintenance OF
the institution aDd the directors bad to
rely very largely upon the income from
the labor of prisoners. The contract sys
TEN did not originate with the Board, it

lsture and the precedents Get BY previous

Their Strike and What Point in the Scale
Prevents Settlement.
The iourreymen plumbers ofthe city In
augurated thsir strike yesterday morning,
and yesterday afternoon the conference
committee of the Msster Plumbers and q
ike committee of the Plumbers Assembly
met at X. of L. ball 10 discuss the scale
of wages, presented By the assembly. The
great hitch is on the apprentice boy clause,
which asks that the apprentice logs be IN
deutured ami only allows one for each tour
iourneymen in an establishment 1t is
thought that the balance OF the demands
would be scquiesced in by the employers
were this one waived.
A well known master plumber said yes
tarday, regarding the conference:
1--WE could come TO no terms and the
conferel ce came to an end with nothing
accomplished We are willing TO accede
to the matter Of wages aud other little
points bat refuse to agree 20 the apprentice
GOV business. Business is quiet anyway
lust at present and think the boys want
to 90 on a little fishing excursion, and
when things brighten up little more and
they get tired Of fishing, think we will be
able to settle matters in satisfactory man
per."
The Assembly met in regular session last
evening at X Of L Hall, ard after the
regular business had been transacted. the
stand taken by their employers IN refusing
10 sccede to the point above mentioned
was taken up end discussed from all
points and they determined to hold up to
the letter of the demand One Of the mem
bars said last evening:
at is the apprentice boy question the
bosses kick or. Our demand is that there
be one boy to each four journeymeu, and
that the boy work with one mau for three
years constantly in order to get the
benefit of the journeymans knowledge as
we'll as the practical benefit the way tits
now, boz can work for year auda hall,
get pretty good idea Of the business and
will then be sent out on JOB work,
and his time is charged for
at the same rate as that of a
iournevman. Probably he is kept on job
work all the time and never obtains thor
ough knowlsdge Of the trade. This is the
first plumbers strike ever organized in the
city, and We intend to make it count for
something"

response to q msrifest call of duty, aud the
rink having been secured OF very ressona'
bic terms for the week, meetings will be
he'd day and night. >,
The meeting of last evening at the rink
developed remarkable character. Prob.
ably more than twenty young men asked
for the prayers OF Christians. Ii was q
wonderful scene 10 ses them kneeliug all
over the house, while the few interchangeable
workers knelt with them aud prayed for
their salvation, Many we're converted and
the doxology was sung again and again
over the triumphs OF divine grace. No
such religious awakening has been known
in the city for years, if ever. Already the
interest is extraordinary. Tue rink pre-
sen.s the appearance. which those Who
have attended the Moody or Jones
meetings have become familiar. Nothing
could exceed the easnestness and power
of the two evsngelists who are moving
Wheeling thus profoundly. Their work
grows upon the thought and confidence
OF those who watch it 1t is pure Gospel
preaching along the line OF human sym.
pa.hies while the people listen to and feel
so deeply at TIE rink. These two women
hsve experienced what they teach, and
they know how 10 adapt their words to
all conditions and needs. Some most
wonderful conversions have occurred
among drinking men, and more and more
they are being swept into the current OF
this work. There is nothing denonina'
tioGai in this effort All the ministers OF
the city, the members OF the
Y. NJ. C. A, and all other earnest
workers are no. only invited to be present,
but their cooperation will be welcomed.
Those who are converted in these meetings
must necessarily be cared for in all the
churches Let every one feel that the
work belongs to him. There is especially
a great field for The eXertiops OF young
men. 1t is interesting to see large groups
OF them at eve7y service, many of whom
never enter church The evsngelists
would be grestly pleased if a corps OF
earnest young men would rally to their
help
To-day there vii! be praise and prayer
