A BLOW AT ORGANIZED LABOR.

Imo ImcVuo,stenc, oI n Labor journal
Made Plain.
To TIE Editor Of the Register:
SIR:-I have heretofore regaded the
Wheeling Nelrs- Letter as the especial cham
piOn of labor, but confess that my faith
was considerably shaken last Sunday
morning when | read in the REGISTER
that the Ners- Letter was employing boy
pressman. To he consistent the proprie
tors of the Newsletter must pay the
established wages of preSsmen in
Wheeling. Ii they can justly
run that department of their establishment
on the cheap John, Italian labor idea, by
employing u boy who never made any pre-
tensions to being a pressman, at less than
half the wages of regular pressman, they
can run the balance of their establishment
on the same principle.
This is blow at organized labor from a
source that surprises me, and think the
Trades Assembly should look into the mat
ter. II IAN injury to one is the concern
of all, the jOurneymen pressmen now
idle in our city and looking for jobs, are
enltleu I'D pIOttCIlOn lIOIh lllS aIVtupG W
lower their established wages. The other
daily newspaper establishments in Wheel
ing are, am informed, paying full jour
neyman's wages, and yet these papers arc
being boycotted at the suggestion Of the
Ners Letter while it is allowed to employ
an an ateur pressman at half the wages of
Jour- Let us be consistent, fellow work
Ing men, or we will go under. Our organ
must pay it's pressman full wages.

aged twenty, and the two soon became en-
gagged to be married. Miss Pater's
mother, when her consent was asked, re-
fused to permit the marriage on the
ground that Compton's profession was not
a desirable one, and that his scanty
means and precarious income were not suf-
ficient to properly support her daughter,
who, upon attaining her majority, would
come into possession of 600, 900 year and
large estates in India. Compton persisted
in his attentions to Miss Pater, and re-
peatedly renewed his appeals to her moth
er. The latter remained obdurate, and
was supported in her opposition by Miss
Pater's guardian. who also objected to
the marriage and warned Compton
that he would be imprisoned if he
should carry out his expressed intention
of marrying their ward without their
consent. These threats had no terror for
Compton, and he forthwith illustrated
his contempt for the opposition of Miss
Pater's legal protectors and guardians by
marrying her. In court yesterday Comp
tons counsel pleaded hard for the release
OF his client, who had been impelled to
the commission of the act charged against
him only by his ardent affection for the
lady. He did not, counsel said, want her
money, and was willing that every farth-
ing of it should be settled upon her. To
send Compton To prison would
break his young wife's heart and prevent
him from obtaining lucur-
atiye engagement which had
recently been offered him. The
Judge, in view of Comptons having been
warned of the consequences of his mar
riage with Miss Pater, refused TO consider
any eXtenuating circumstances, and COM
mitted Compton to Jail, from which he
will he extremely lucky if he is released
within three months. The young couple
are sympathized with on all Sides and
Compton's friends, who are many, are
filled with Indignation at his imprison
ment, claiming that it is notorious that
Miss Pater's family at first encouraged
Compton's courtship of the young lady,
leading him to believe that they desired his
attentions to result in marriage.

American Sharners.

LONDON. November 2O.-A dispatch
from Dublin says that Canon BagOt, OF
the Cathedral in that city, has forwarded
TO Minister Phelps an account OF the cir
cumstances under which he was recently
induced TO 90 to Denver, Col, on what
proved to be FOOLS errand, and that he
expressed the opinion that some cOmpen-
sation il due him for the loss of tim aud
money in which he has been involved
The case is a very remarkable one. Some
months ago Canon BagOt received lette T
purpOrting to come from lawyer,in Den
yer. to the effect that an Irish Protestant
named Moore, Of South Mexico, had died
in that city, reavinga legacy Of some six
" thousand pounds sterling, or about
$500. 900, to the Irish Protestant church.
There was also a long story concerning the
deposit Of the document in a box left with
the lawyer, and the Communication wound
I'D with a request for money in order that
the will might be probated. Instead Of
complying with this request the Canon,
fearing that the shrewd Yankees might
find some way Of dIvertiDg the Legacy
from the sources TO which it was devised,
uOOk the uTsI sbcdlubl lOi NHt NuAeCN
States. When he arrived at Denver, how
ever, he found to his chagTin that the
whole story was a myth, and that the
LAWYER had no foundation for his eItrsOr-
binary story. ThereuPon the Canon re-
turned to Dublin poorer and sadder, but
wiser man. He has been in communica-
ton with the Denver authorities since his
return, and says that he may have to go
to the States again to assist in the prosecu-
ton of the offender. He says that the lat
ter can be indicted for forgery in counter
feiting letters and documents with intent
to defraud, and for using the Postofiee for
the purpose of obtaining money under
false preteuses. The Canon says he hae
advices 10 the effect that the American
Government will take action on the latter
charge.

ARRIVAL FOR NATURAL GAS.
An Ohio Man Who Claims TO Have Made n
Wonderful Discovery.

An Ohio Man Who ClaiIus 10 Have Made
Wonderful Discovery.
CLEVELAND, November 20.-Mr. j. j.
Johnson, of COlumbiana, this State, claims
to have invented gas-making process that
be says will Outdo natural gas. Johnson
has been working on the invention for
some time and has succeeded in perfecting
his process to such an extent that wonder
full results were accomplished. The prin-
ciple of the machine Is a system of siphOns
and air is forced alternately through water
and through oil, resulting in
gas. The tests made by Mr.. johnson
on the machine first finished by him
resulted in getting 450,0 cubic feet of
gas from q barrel of oil. After this inn
menSe quantity Of gas had been made, the
residue of oil as lubricator is said to be
worth rs much rs the barrel of oil origi-
nally. 1t is cheaper than daylight, for
after getting the light and fuel you have
the original value of the material you get
it from.
Mr.. Johnson made trip to Boston and
had conference with capitalists regard
ing the sale of the right or the invention.
After his representations chemist from
Harvard College were sent to Columbiana to
investigate. They reported favorably upon
1t and johnson was given 81, 200, 900 for
the right in the United States with the
exception of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois Later he sold the right of
the four States, with the exception of
Columbiana county, Ohio, to a Pittsburg
syndicate for $500 900.
The men from Boston who examined
the machine said that when perfectad no
doubt million feet of gas could be pro
dueed from barrel ofOil. AS an illumi-
nant it is said to be far superior to the gas
manufactured under the ordinary process
and as q fuel it is vastly better than natur-
al gas Its heat is intense. A bar of lead
was thrust into the blaze and Immediately
tell apart. From pipe which issues from
JOhnsOn's laboratory issues blaze eight
feet long that makes an intensely brilliant
light.
When knowledge of the invention gets
abroad it is expected to create wonderful
sensation as it Is expected to completely
revolutionize the matter Of fuel and light
ing. The parties who have gained control
Of the invention have been endeavOring to
keep it quiet until they were ready to be-
rriv, opor0tionS.

a DIspOsr,IOn 10 Revive the Military Spirit
of Eight Years Ago.

n LnsltUbkLIOn 10 Revive tn6 hilltdTy Sphit
of Eight Years Ago.
1t is q matter of comment that
Wheeling, with a population of thirty-five
thousand, has not single military COM
pany, and it is probably the only city of
its size in the country so situated. 1t has
not been 20 long since we bad three or four
companies, composing a city battalion. Al
most all -four citizens remember the Light
Guards the Goff Guards and the Xouaves,
who made our city gay with their parades,
balls and sham battles Every old member
of the Light Guards thinks with pride of
the triumphs won at Martinsburg and
White Sulphur, and how they went into
active service before they were uniformed,
even if some did go in linen busters and
kid gloves. During the last month there
has been considerable talk of Tevivng one
or more of the old company's, and it is
probable that list of names will be made
out next week.
The old soldiers are favoring the move
ment, rs they desire to have a sham battle
next summer during the soldier reunion.
The boys of the Seventh ward are especially
enthusiastic, and desire to raise company
over there, secure the rink as drill room,
and Major Lee, Wash Baggs and others
as instructors. 1t is to be hoped that it
may be success and that the young men
in other parts of the city will follow their
example.
