COMMERCIALLY PROJECT.
A woman's Exchange and Help Bureau To
BE Organized.

A woman's Exchange and Help Bureau "a
BE Organized.
For several weeks past there has been
movement on foot among number Of
ladies Of this city, having for its object the
organization of Woman's Exchange and
Help Bureau, modelled after similar insti-
tutions existing in other cities. The pro-
ject was favOrably received from the
outset, and yesterday afternoon about 40
ladies assembled in the Y. NJ. G. A. build
ing to further discuss the matter and take
some definite action. in the premises.
The meeting was presided over by Mrs.
Rev. Dr. Cunningham. Statements ex-
planning the scope OF the proposed institu-
ton ana the beneficial effects ACQUIRING from
it in other cities were made by several
ladies, aud the result was the passage Of
a resolution fayoring the establishment Of
a Branch Exchange in Wheeling.
The ladies purpose to establish them
selves in commodious and central quarters,
advertise in the country papers for such
help as there may be demand for, secure
the best possible servants for its patrons,
and do whatever else may be necessary to
benefit both employers and employe.
There seems at present to be an unusual
amount of trouble among housekeepers 10
secure and retain first-class help, and the
exchange is expected TO rapidly bring
about better state Of affairs in this re-
gard.
In connection with the Exchange, it is
also proposed TO establish and maintain, q
lunch room, where ladies out shopping, a.
we'll as gentlemen and strangers in the
city, can secure meals aud lunches Of an
appetiziHg character, well served, at rea-
sonabie price. The need Of such place,
the ladies declare, is very urgent, and
they say they intend tosupply the def
eiency In way which viii at once meet
with popular approval and support.
The whole affair has been placed by the
ladies in the hands Of competent exeeu-
tive board, and the project will soon be
ready for business.

Boston, September 2i.-The session of

claimed that in the transaction Mr.. Brown
the trustee, did not represent the Dunhar
heirs, but was the tool OfMr. Hugely, who
was set down in the directory as liquor
dealer, but who, the speaker ascertained,
was an able politician and political mani
pulatOr, and one of the intriguers in the
FisheT-Hil transaction. The price received
for the estate by the Dunbar heirs was
$40, 900, while the city of Boston paid
Sl57, 500. The circumstances attending
the transaction should be investigated. In
the course of his remarks Mr.. Wilson in
timated that the action of the Mayor in
signing the order was worthy of inyesliga-
ton, and the chair called him 10 order for
rejecting on the executive. After long
and warm debate, the order was referred to
the committee on the Judiciary, with full
powers to act.
The Advertiser to-day, in commenting up.
on the matter, says: ''The similarity OF
the City Council methods in New York

Crushed by His Daughters MisalIianoe


LoSDOS. September 25.-'GeneraP'
Booth, of the Salvation Army, had an eye
on business when he encouraged the mar
rage of his son, Darlington Booth, to Miss
Msude Charlesworth. Miss Charlesworth
has a handsome fortune in reverslon, she
being the Youngest daughter of the Rev.
Samuel Charlesworth, who was Tor many
wears Rector of LimehOuSe Parish,
London. and is now living In
retirement in Brighton, completely
crushed by his daughters misalliamce.
In an interview last night
Mr.. Edward Charlesworth, Maude's uncle
and an eminent geOlOgist, said: We con-
slider Maude's alliance with the Booth
family very degrading. Our family have
ALWAYS made good matches. The Charles
worth family support evangelism, Dnt
draw the line at the Salvation Army agree
ing with Lord ShafteSbury that the Army
is an inven ton of the devil. Booth lnvlt-
ed me TO the wedding but did not go, be-
ing disguised with the whole affair. My
bother, Maude's father, was eaqually NOR
titled and refused to countenance the mar
riage in any way. Samuel Charles
worth married his cousin, lovely woman
and extremely pious, who is now dead.
Being a firm believer in evangelism, she
was in the habit of taking herdaughter to
salvation meetings, but she did not sever
her connection with the chnrch. Miss
Naude was also very pious, and after her
mothers death which greatly saddened
her mind, she joined the Salvation Army
in spite of her fathers entreaties. L fear
that Maude's reversion will be sold or
mortgaged to lessen the Booths financial
dificulties and that Maude by this means
will ultimately come to want.

The Humble Bee,

Bill Nye: ARGENT article on oeeS
saws. aIf YOU have noticed bees
verv closely, you may have seen that
they are not at all alike in SIZE.
| have noticed bees very closely
indeed during my life. In fact
have several times been thrown into
immediate juxtaposition with them'
and have had great many opportuni-
ties to observe their ways, and | am
free to say that | have not been SO
forcibly struck with the difference In
their size as the noticeable difference
in their temperature.
I remember at one time of sitting
by a hive watching the habits of the
bees and thinking how industrious
they were, and what wide difference
there is between the toilsome life OF
the little insect and the enervating,
aimless, idle and luxurious life OF the
newspaper man, when an impulslve
little bee lit in my hair. He seemed
to be feverish. Wherever he settled
down he seemed to leave a hot place.
| learned afterward that it was new
kind of bee called the anti clinker
base burner bee.
Oh, yes, | have studied the ways of
the bee very closely. He is supposed
to improve each shining hour. That's
the great objection l have to him.
The bee has been thrown up to me a
great deal during my life, and the
comparison was not fattering. 1t has
been intimated that | resembled the
bee that sits an the piazza Of the
hive all summer and picks his teeth,
while the rest are getting in honey
and bees wax for the winter campaign.

WHEN THE EARTH WILL Srop RE-
voLvlNG.-A problem which is attract
ing to its study astronomers, relates
to the earth as me-keeper. We
measure time by dividing either the
period during which the earth revol-
YES around the sun, or that in which
it turns on its axis, BY the first
method we measure year; by the
second day. The earth, according
to some astronomers, is losing time.
Through two causes, the suns attac-
ton and the friction, so to speak, of
the tides, the earth each year revol-
yes more slowl y on its axis. The
speculative question which these as
tronomers are discussing is, whether
IN the end the earth will stop its re-
volutlon upon its axis and will pre-
sent always the same face to the sun
" men that event occurs there will be
p srpetual day in one part of the earth

With regard to the railroad land
grants Commissioner Spark says:
An act should be passed declaring
forfeitures of grants, if only to the
extent of those portions of unoon-
structed roads at the time fixed by
law for the entire completion. Such
an act, while measure of partial JUS
tice only, would leave to the compan-
les, at their average price of lands,
more than enough to meet the legiti-
mate cost of the entire construction
of their roads. Great land grants to
private individuals were nearly all
made for colonization purposes and
are not binding unless the conditions
involved have been complied with.
