its center is marked by the intersection
of the two principal avenues. Each
block is subdivided into sixteen lots,
50x 80 feet, with broad alley running
through the center Of the block. Irving
ton promises to become, in time, an i'm,
portant business center. 1t is now
directly on the line of the California
southern, and but a short distance from
the Southern Pacific at Cotton, thus
having practically the advantages of two
transcontinental routes. Besides this,
it has been determined to make the
junction of the Los Angeles and San
Gabriel Railroad with the California
Southern at this point, aud the latest
map issued shows this proposed connec.
ton. The site OF lrvington is very ia
yorable for town, and with the assist
ance of the railroads and the develop.
ment of the rich country about it there
can be no doubt that it will become one
of the most prosperous business centers
in Southern California. The California
Southern has graded the roadway at the
station and will Immediately lay l 200
feet of side track.

the most worthy and valuable citizsna to
the Commonwealth. 1t is noticeable that
many of WeesliUg's wsge-Workers have
cast their lot in Wsllsburg. Branching
out for themselves, as it were. II was
pleasure to chat moment with Mr.. JOHN
LoEsNuLER, former Wheeling boy, and
now manager of the Little Venture Glass
Works. He is full of hope and energy, al
Ways casting drawbacks and bad luck be-
hind him and pressing forward for success
in his undertakings. We believe he is de-
stined 10 be q successful man in life.
The new Presbyterian Church is an
edifce worthy Of the service to which it Is
conseersted. Its spsciousness and srchi'
lecture would reflect credit on q much
larger city. It's cost is $4,000 or more
The Rev. WALxINsHAw still shepherds the

The most notable and valuable improve
meut to the town is the water Wo-ss'
Most Of the water mains are
laid and the reservoir Is
under contract. 1t is 265 feet above the
level, ard the ordinary pressure at the
Court House corner, it is said, will be %
pounds to the squsre inch. There will b
no oeed of fire engines. A hose attached
to 8 FIRE plug will throw water over the
highest steeple. The water Will be cours
ing through the mains before winter q
which tine, it can be truthfully asserted
Wellsburg, with her natural gas and he
other advantages, may lay claim to beint

BUBBLE SNAEChAN6 AMI LEoh9
CLOTHES.
Alderman JAEHNE last Saturday got in
HE first days work in Sing Sing prison.
From 7:l5 8. m. till So. m. he handled one
hundred and twenty shirts, or about three
every minute. He gives promise of becom.
ing quite an espert in securing and
starching dirty linen ard viii have enough
of such work to do to give him good sp,
petite for the hssh bread and coffee diet Of
the denizens OF Sing Sing.
There ls "a good deal Of poetic justice in
al this. The punishment has been made
to Git the crime, exactly. II is q work
that will ct JAEHSE pretty we'll, too. He
has Just been so thoroughly overhsuled
and renovated and ventilated by the peo-
pie Of New York that he can now put in
good time in cleaning up the linen OF
others, The tax payers of New York still
have much reason for satisfaction at the
nice adjustment that has been made, even
If JAEHxE did take too much liberty with
their Doodle. When his fellow thieves
have been disposed of on the same plan
they will still be better pleased.
There are some good pointers in
JAEHNE's career for sH officials who abuse
the trust the people have placed in them,
prostitating their positions to dishonest
ends. The best legal talent and sll the
wealth and the political and other in6u.
euees nsed by JAEHNE and his friends,
could not ward of the demands OF justice.
He fourished for q while ike Boss TWEED,
but ike him, was caught in his own net.
The number Of wealthy men in this coun-
try convicted and sent to the penitentisry
within the past year throws out the advice
20 all, without regard to wealth, position,
race, color, sex, or previous condition of
servitude: If you expect to practice dis
honesty or violate the laws in other ways,
expect also TO wear zebra clothes, eat
prison hash. and Timber up your joints at
some prison work.

WORK FOR THE BOOMING COMMIT.
TEE.

As the Chamber of Commerce has be.
gun o movement to encourage the deVel'
opment of Wheeling industries, the sooner
the committee provided for, begins bust
ness the better, and the boom, well begun,
must be kept going. The more definite
the committee can be in its work, the more
likely will it be to accomplish good results
At the meeting Of the Chamber, last week,
several suggestions were made about the
facilities for starting certain industries,
which are worthy of careful consideration.
The committee should learn just what in
ducsments can be offered in regard to sites
and other facilities for manufactures, 80
that all can be presented in their best pos
sible light to the capitalists who wish to en-
bark in manufacturing enterprises.
We notice that the Riverside furniture
factory and all its appurteuances, and sew
eral contiguous lots well suited for manu-
featuring establishments, are for sale IN
June. They will likely be sold at very rea,
sonsble rates. Here ia some definite work
for the booming committee to do. Let the
attention Of capitalists in other places be
called to these offers. By the cooperation
Of some of the mouied men of Wheeling,
who would, no doubt, gladly take stock,
with some assistance from capitalists OF
other cities, mammoth furniture estsb
Hshment, employing hundreds of men,
could spring up and flourish. Let the com
mittee seize hold of this or any other def
mite and tangible proposition and boom II
for all il ia worth.

WAS THE BELL PATENT SECURED BY


WAS THE BELL PATENT SECURED BY
BRIBERY?
The Pan, Electric telephone investiga-
tion, while not bringing out anything dam
aging to Attorney General GARLAND, makes
SONS other persons not fare so well. The
affidavit made By Mr.. WILBUR, Examiner
Of Patents, that Mr. BELI bribed him in
order to secure a patent for the BELL tele-
phone, thus robbipg Professor GRAY OF the
honor and the great fortune that would
have come to him as a reward for the years
OF toll spent in perfecting his patent, Is
knowledge worth all the trouble that has
been spent in the investigation. Ofcourse
WILBUR statement can not OF once be
taken ss true, out it looks true, even If
BELL does bitterly deny it. But the in
vestigation will be likely TO show just how
the matter stands.
II this affidavit is true, it is very
shameful showing for the manner in which
the patent business has been. conducted.
WILBUR says he WAS put under the inhu'
ence of alcohol by BELLS attorneys, in or
der that they might more readily accom-
plsh their ends. WILBUR shows that ne is
q disgrace to himself and 10 the Federal
officisls who kept him in office. 1t
will be lasting honor to President CLEvE
LANDS administration if it succeeds in
clearing up this matter and instituting re-
form and securing justice both to Mr..
GRAY and the men who under the pro
lection Of the law robbed him. While,
If WILBUR's statement is proved true, it
will not be possible to repair the loss that
has suffered by Prof. GRAY, it will be
possible to take away Bells patent and
give it to its rightful owner

Is wELlsBURG FAVORED :

A short run around the old town Of
Wsllsburg recently developed the highly
gratifying fact that she is enjoying her
share of material prosperity. Nestled IN
ma If The loveliest and most textile spots
op the Ohio. and at this season CARRIED in
natures richest raiment, the transient VS.
,tor i. lost in admiration over the wealth OF
beautiful and piCturesqe landscape that Is
presented TO hiI vision. The town IS not
40 large or densely builS up but what there
are many "ccigues Of vantage" from which
the eve may catch the magnificent view.
The signs Of thrift and comfort, and even
luxury. are abundant, and while the growth
Of the burg is not rapid, it is steady and
heslthful Her population will number
$500, and perhaps more.
Five glsss works, two paper mills, and
several Other industries on 6 smaller scale
give employment to sbcut 500 wage
workers whose average pay Siu run uP

Der week. This sum coming principally
from sbroadis Just 80 much wealth dropped
RIGHT into the town. Such NEE as s.

the HARVEY, BAGS. 4 Co. and score of
others We could name, if We had but the
snacs who toll and save and plant
their money in manufactures right
in their own town are the salt Of the earth
and should be praised Of men. How
pleasant and easy it is to some people to
20 on and on making little something
ont of their business investments, and still
keep their help constantly employed and
n. rsmunerative wages. But if all could
do that the millennium would be hsss and
All thought or care Of the hereafter might

THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR IN SESSION

TIE KNIGHTS OF LABOR IN SESSION.
The Knights of Labor are now in session
at Cleveland considering important meas
ures in regard to the government OF the
order. TIE subjects to be considered aud
corrected are said to be these:
First-Ths rapidly increasing member
ship OF the order requires changes IN the
law, which the General Executive Board
have no authority to make.
Second-The laws in relation to the gov
eminent of boyeotting are wholly made,
uuste to compel obedience on the part OF
assemblies that believe in boycotting for
evesy oiFense, whether great or small
Taird-The laws in relation to strikes
do not give the General Executive Board
power 10 interfere in such matters until Of
ter the strike has been insugursted.
Fourth-The order has become involved
in difficulties with trade societies, and ON
effort il being made to create rupture
ce,ween these societies and the knights.
These are all subjects Of great import
ance 10 the Knights and to the whole
country. While the action taken by this
General Assembly will affect directly al
most million men, it will affect four or
Ave times as many indirectly. There is q
great necessity then for discreet and wise
action. With the misunderstanding that
have arisen among new members az TO the
objects Of the order, and the extremes TO
shich some have gone, and the difficulties
that have arisen with trades unions, pru'
dent but vigorous measures are very nee
essary at present to save the order from
damaging complications. But with the
advice OF q few such men as Mr.. POwDERLY
fJliowed out in this convention, We may
