AN INCREASED DEMAND

FOT Nails Causes the Manufacturers TO
Add an Additional Hour of Work.
Saturday afternoon the nail machine
tenders OF the mills working at the Seven
teen cent scale in Wheeling met at Ar.
beuz's Hall, on the South Side, to take &C.
ton on a proposition made BY their em.
ployers that they work eleven hours q Day
instead Of ten, 2! cents per machine to be
allowed for the extra hour. After q good
deal Of discussion the part OF the pro-
position relating 70 psy for extra
time was adopted, but they failed
10 agree as to how extra work would be
done. However, the matter will undoub;.
edIy be settled to-day as the feeder-usilers
have unanimously agreed to work an extra
hour each day for two months. which fact
will probably compel the tenders TO sccep'
the proposition. This increase in working
hours ia taken on account Of an increased
demand for Tails.

A Great ConqUerUr.

Every body hates eEotism, yet history is
full of it. Sssostris, one Of Egpyt's esrly
kings, was so full Of egotism, thsi the fame
of bis deeds might long survive him, that
he erected columns in the countries through
which he passed, on which was inscribed !;
"Sesostris, king of kings and lord of lords,
subdaed this country By the power of his
arms" That mouSrch showed no doubt,
great deal of ego,ism by his actions; but
would it be egotistiIsl to say that DR..
Bulls Cough Syrup hiss done more than
subdued a courtry, because it has con.
quered miliions of obstinate, colds ard

NATURAL GAS.
Hope Not Entirely abandoned of
Striking il Near Wheeling.
This City Undoubtedly on the Belt on
Which the Great 6asers are Located
observation-disclosures for this Belief,

Although about dozen holes have been
punched in the earth in this vicinity during
the past yesz or so in the hope Of finding
natural gas in sufficiently large quantities
to supply our manufacturers with fuel,
without any very gitteripg success having
attended the efforts made, and notTith-
standing the fact that an adequate supply
of the feel is practically assured during
the ensuing six months via the pipe lines
Of the Natural Gas Company of West Viz
ginia, there is still o good deal Of talk to
be heard on the subject of the sinking Of
ADDITIONAL WELLS
in this city or the deepening Of some Of the
old ones.
Talking With large manufacturer few
DAYS ago On this subject, he said: Not
outstanding the wells put down in this city
are prscticsl failures, j am far from being
convinced that there is no great amount OF
gas under ". On the contrary think 1t
has been pretty conclusively shown that we
are in the gas territory, and believe con.
tinued effort will be crowned with final
success.
1T is we'll known that the gas belt
runs parallel to the Allegheny mountains
from northeast to southwest, and Wheeling
is squarely and fairly
on THAr LINE.
A lire drawn from the great Murrsysville
gas region, TO the Little Washington wells,
will pass right through Wheeling if con-
,inued in this direction. As an illustrs.
ton OF this take the wells along the ALLIE
gheny river about Leechburg and Freeport,
A hne drawn from Freeport through the
bunch of wells west IF Cannonsburg strikes
Wellsburg, where the gas shows up in great
shape Iftbeground was carefully examined
and bee line marked outfrom MurraysTlle
through Washington to Wheeling | am
fully persuaded that wells located on it and
sunk 10 a sufficient depth would bring
plenty Of gas to the surface.
The great drawback is, said another
manufacturer, that in the light Of the
many failures made in this vicinity
no ONE HAS COURAGE ENOUGH
to put down another we'll 1t is a matter
Of several thousand dollars, and our man
ufscturers prefer to keep the money and
await the completion OF the coming pipe
line, which will give us al the fuel we may
want.
A member ofthe West Virginia comps'
nv said: There seems TO be popular i'm
preston that even were our pipe line
down. we would still have to hunt around
for gas to put in it. That is ell wrong.
We could send gas TO Wheeling in week
if our pipes were down The trouble is,
not to get the gas, but to get the pipes.
All the pipe works are oyerrun with or
ders We had to split our contract be,
fore we could get anyone to consider 1t.
We are ready TO 60 to work just as soon
as we begin TO receive our pipe.

A MYSTERY SOLVED.
The Body OF a Bellaire Man Found in
River.

The Body OF Bellaire Man Found in a
River.
Yesterday Mrs. Fred Hahn, Of Bellaire,
received o telegram from Calumet. Hi
nois, that the body Of her husband had
been found in the river at that place. This
clears up mystery Of some three months
duration. Mr.. Hahn was mill man, and
left Bellsire in 1880 to 60 TO work in the
South Chicago mill When the strike was
inaugurated Mr. Hahn went to work as a
feeder mailer. On the day before Christ
mas he had quarrel with some Of the
former employees OF the mill, and after
starting home on that night he was never
again seen alive. The finding OF his body
in the river makes it appear probable that
he was murdered as he crossed the bridge
and his body thrown into the water.

A Fine Choir.

After the first Of April the First Presby'
terrain Church will have choir that any

it having been selected by Siguor d'Auria
from among the best voices in the city,
which are Madame dAuris, soprano; Mrs.
Nellie Sweeney Palmer, contrslto; Mr.. j..
Ankle, tenor; aud Mr.. Robert Clark, OF
Bridgeport, basso
Aside from the excellent quality of these
voices, the fact that the choir will be un.
der the direction OF Signor d'Auria is sufti-
cient assurance that the First church con-
gregstion will be treated to 6ue music in
the future. Signor d'Auria will also re-
tain bis present position as orgsnist.
