A PLUMBERS STRIKE
EoBEMAUGURATED HIRE TODAY
The Men Quit and Announce thai they viii
not Return to Work TIN their Scale Is
signsd-NO OOHfsrsnOs Had Between
the Employers and w0rEnoa.

The plumbers Of this city quit work
at the usual hour Saturday evening,
and announced that they would not re-
turn to work until the scale recently sub
mittsd by the Plumbsra' Union w~asdgned.
The scale, as printed in last Tuesdays
INTELLIaESCER, provides that the mini
mum wages for q Iournsymau plumber
hereafter shRll be s. 80 per day, and that
night work andwork on Sunday or on q le-
gal holiday shall be paid for at double the
usual price. It is also demanded that all
apprentices shall be formally indentured
according to the law, that they shall
number one for every four iourueymsn or
fraction Of four, and that the Union shall
have a voice in the choice Of the appren-
tees, and shall examine all candidates
for indentuIe.
The employing plumbers do mot object
80 much to the increase Of wages from q
minimum Of 81 rs TO s. so, which ia fifty
cents higher than the old maximum, but
they consider the rules in regard to
apprentices oppressive and unfair, partl-
cularly the one requiring legal ~indenture.
This was the principal point on which
they desired 10 arbitrate, Their Confer
ence Committee and the Union could not
come together, however, and the strike
will be inaugurated this morning,

Tho nraller OF prsssure.

A good deal has been said and printed
lately on tho subject OF pressure
in the natural gas mains. The
Manufacturer Company asked the priv.
lege Of coming into the city with q pres.
sure OF forty pounds, which has caused
quite a cry as to the danger OF high pres.
sure, and somebody has suggested a
special meeting Of Council to amend the
right OF way ordinance 30 as to limit the
pressure. A gentleman not connected
with either company said Saturday in
speaking on this subject: "Why such
haste? The pressure will not be on the
pipes until the gas is turned In. This at
tempt to rush things Is therefore unseen.
ly. OF course, the city must be careful,
but there Is plenty Of time"
An I"NTELLIaRNCER reporter called at
the office OF the Manufacturers Company
Saturday and had q talk with Mr.. Merrill,
the engineer. He said II the company
did not consider it important to come in
with forty pounds pressure, 1t would not
ask the privilege. OF course It would do
what the city required. He dwelt, how.
ever, on the selfish interest the company
had in avoiding any possible danger-a
greater interest than any citizen could
have, because while any accident would
have but one chance in a thousand To in.
lure any individual citizen, 1t would
surely lay the company liable TO heavy
damages, besides entailipg loss on 1t.
Mr.. Merrill said he considered forty
pounds absolutely safe. The pressure in
the water pipes Of the city is greater than
that, and water pressure Is much less
yielding than gas, Tor gas is elastic and wa
ter Is not.
Every piece Of pipe sent out Of the fac.
tory Ia tested at O pressure OF 700 pounds
To the square inch, and after 1t is laid
every Joint Is tested at an air pressure
three times as great as that OF the gas.
Forty pounds is not three times the nat
ural and constant atmospheric pressure.
With the safety appliances the company
proposesto use, Mr.. Merrill says, 40 pounds
is as safe as Is. The only possible leak Is
at the joints. These are absolutely pro.
teCted by an iron box, making 1t practiC-
ally a double pipe. There Is no tap reach.
Ing up towards the surface Of the street to
jar loose, as in some systems.
The public seems TO have q false
idea Of these safety appliances. The
joints are not expected to leak. These
covers and small pipes are put On simply
80 that II one should leak 1t can be detected
instantly and at once repaired. Men will
visit and test the pipes at the vent daily.
A leak 10 q rare thing.

The meetings OF Miss Jennie Smith and
Miss Addie Sherman at the Capitol rink
Saturday aninCreaseo Of interestand
better results than the preseling meetings.
Yesterday the growth in interest and
power was still more marked. In the
morning the two ladies visited the county
Jail. They intended to visit the city work
house, but mlstook the place, An inter.
esting meeting was held with the prison.
ers. AT l0; 30they conducted the services
at the North Street NJ. +, church, which
we're largely attended and full Of interest.
The meeting OF the day was at the
Alhambra Palace rink at 8 P. NJ. From
$500 to 5000 people were present, and
the meeting was earnest and effective.
Many old residents Of the city who were
present said Wheeling nevsr experienced
such a meeting in her religious history.
Last night at the Capitol rink another
good meeting was held. Here, as at all
the meetings OF the day, Misses Smith and
Sherman were the principal speakers.
Alter the churches were out, the attend.
anCe, before large, was greatly increased.
The g, A. r. post came in In Q body, and
Capt. Carlin madea little address and ].
Melvin Richards sang q solo.
To.DAY's MEETINGS.
Miss Smith and Miss Sherman have de.
termlned to stay over in Wheeling until
Tuesday morning. This being so, arrange.
ments have been made TO hold services at
the Capitol rink this afternoon and even
ing. The afternoon service will be q
gospel temperance rally. II Is desired
that all who have joined or will join the
Blue Ribbon League shall be present to
perfect the organization and prepare for
work to come.
The W. @. T. U. are also asked TO be
present in force. This organization has
appointed q committee to arrange for a
continuance OF the out-of.door meetings
TO such an extent as Is possible after Miss
Smith is gone. 1t is hoped some plan
can be perfected that will unite the friends
Of this work In an effort TO save the fallen.
Let all be present. The Y. NJ. O. A. are
invited to take part in this service, and
lend their aid In the consolidation Of the
good work done. Let the meeting be an
expression OF warm appreciation Of the
efforts made by the indelatigable workers
who have thus far helped in the work. In
the evening there will be q farewell meet
Ing. II Ia not necessary TO urge the peo-
pie TO come. It will certainly be a great
meeting. The afternoon service will be-
gin at : P. NJ. and the evening service
at 7 r, N.

UNBxCELLED ON THE CONTINENT,
oCOld SHORTY gives wheeling another boom

"Cold Short MI. P. q. Moors) Is keep
ing up his good work In keeping the adj
yantages Of Wheeling before the manu-
featuring world as witnesses the following
extract from his latest letter in the Age
Of Steel;
IhRye been writing lately in a lAudatory
strain about this part Of the Ohio valley,
/ was not attempting TO boom It, but
merely assisting nature, which Is most sub
stantiRlly booming It, Pittsburgh does
not need any p~erlunctory booming from
any one. She is ar accomplished fact, the
centre Of the manufacturing industry Of
this country her course from this time on
Ia fixed and CeTtain-but a few years and
she will be supreme. With but two years
practical use Of natural gas Pittsburgh has
made not only wonderful progress but that
progress has been substantialand Of q per-
manent character, When full develop.
ment has been made OF allthe uses, possi-
bilities and advantages OF this grest fuel,
and 1t Is controlled by legitimate Conpett-
ton sufficiently diffused to prevent mo.
nopolistic extortions, Pittsburgh and
Wheeling will forge ahead Of all rivalry
as iron, steel and glass producing esnters,
And this desirable condition will come
about, for whilst this gas In paying guam
titles "a confined TO this region 1t 10 not by
any means local, but is found OF different
and not contiguous districts, mi pretty
extensive territory, geographically tribu'
tary, howeyer,t to Pittsburgh and Wheeling.
Pittsburgh, according to reliable census
figures, has increased in population
oil, 200 since 1880, and l venture the pre-,
dictiOn that 1888 will show an increased
Of 10000 for Wheeling; for her spirit is
aroused, she Is gliding up her loins and
buCkling on her armoE, and when these
mountainous, whether Pennsylvanians Or
Yirginians, get their mettle up, the loads
have to come or the tugs break, Nor are
they Aelfsh; they possess unprecedented
and unequalled advantages, and magnani-
mouSly they invite their competitors IN
the iron and steel trade elsewhere TO come
to this promised land and share in these
advantages.
Wheeling, through her Chamber Of
Commerce, Is about to enumerate and
classify these advantages and publish
them, at the same time extend @ regular
old.time hospitable invitation to all who
"labor and are heavy burdened" with
disadvantages and inequalities as TO iaeili'
ties, to come to her and find relief. She
has acres upon acres OF splendid factory
sites, unlimited water supply, cheap taxa

for transportation unexcelled on this

Duties of the Hour.

People with duties to perform,
with families to care for, with
obligations to society or their
fellows which require complete.
health and strength, both of.
mind and body, should give
attention to their condition, and
be prepared to protect themselves
against exhaustion or loss of
vitality, From its preparation
and the purity Of its ingredients
there can be no question that
Browns Iron Bitters is adapted
to this use more surely than any
other known remedy. Iron has
nowhere else been so combined,
Nc other iron remedy is made
without the use Of whisky, or
injurious and dangerous acids.
The temperance properties Of
Browns Iron Bitters commend
it to all people, 1t does not en-
courage or establish an appe-
tito for liquors, neither does it
give undue excitment to the
organs of the stomach, Its
ability to prevent is equal to its
power to cure diseases Of the
blood, Its influence on the
Stomach, Liver and Kidneys is
directly through this medium.
The languor, the tired feeling,
general debility arising from in
action of the liver; pains in the
back and sides resulting from
weak kidneys; dyspepsia and
indigestion caused by disordcred
stomach; all these are cured, all
may be prevented by Browns
Iron Bitters. This is the season
when your health for the future
depends largely on your present
care. Don't neglect this hint
but take Browns Iron Bitters to
prepare for the summer. AS an
anti-malarial it has no equal.
1t drives out the poison Of
malaria and gives tone and
strength at recovery. Remem-
Der that the best medical author
ity advises against the use Of
quininc. 1t is an old remedy,
but its use frequently leaves
congestion, neuralgia and deaf
ness as a legacy to the patient.
Browns Iron Bittcrs causes
none Of these. 1t leaves the
system better, not worse than
before its use. Spring fever,
associated with inactivity and
lassitudc, is instantly removed
by the use Of Browns Iron
Bitters. 1t is a specific. This is
reason enough for you to get a
bottle Of Browns Iron Bittcrs.
But don't be deceived. You
want the genuine or you want
none. limitations are on the
market. Don't be imposed
upon. Don't act upon preju-
diced advice, and take an article
because the dealer can make
more profit on it than he can on
the genuine Browns Iron Bittcrs.
The genuine has the trade mark
and crossed rcd lines on the
wrapper. The price is one dol
lar a bottle, and it is sold every
where. Made only by the
Brown Chemical Co., BALTIC, Nd.

Impressive Services Of the q. AR.

Those who Witnessed the solemn and
beautiful ceremonies in the different Ceme-
tsries Of this vicinity yesterday felt that it
was peculiarly fitting that Memorial Day
should fall on Sunday. The exercises are
essentially Of a nature for the Sabbath,
What Is more hsllowed than this tribute
to the heroes who fell, martyrs to the
country and to the cause of American free
dom2 There was q noticeable lack Of
those convivial features which too often
mark the observance Of Memorial Day, and
the celebration was Of the sacred and i'm.
pressiVs nature which suits the solemn
significance Of the celebration,
Late Saturday evening q detachment Of
the G. A. X, post, under command oil
Oomrsde William Il, Shelb, decorated the
Soldiers monument, on City Hall square,
with Wreathes and testoons Of flowers and
the national colors. The decorations were
artistically placed and enhanced the stately
beauty of the monument,
Yesterday afternoon the members OF
the Post met at the hall in Beck's block
in uniform, and laden with the flowers
sent by citizsns-which, by the way, we're
not contributed as literally as they ought
to have been, proceeded in detsChmenta
to the different cemeteries, At the PENN.
sula cemetery the services provided by
the G, A. 4, ritual were conducted by
Comrade Ed Robertson as Commander,
assisted by Comrade Robert Chambers,
Comrade William MCAdams and the sex.
ton piloted the squad to the soldiers
graves, Mr.. MOAdRms having visited the
cemetery in advance and marked them
all, Each was strewn with flowers. After
the ceremony Mr.. Robertson read Win L.
Cartoons beautiful Memorial Day poem.
"CovSr them over with beautiful loWen,"
The same detachment also decorated
the three soldiers graves In the old ORtho-
lie cemetery and the four in the old John
street cemetery. In the Peninsula GENE.
terry they found eighty.slx graVes,s greater
number than ave before known 10 be
there.
In Greenwood, ]. Melvin Richards acted
as Commander, and he was assisted in
reading the eloquent ritual by Thomas ],
Gist, q member OF the II. A. Il, post at
MCKeesport, Pa.
This same squad also visited Mt, Calvary
cemetery and performed the same sad
duty there that they did in Greenwood.
At Mount Wood fity.three graves were
decorated. The ritual was read by Capt,
W. j. Robb and COmrade w. s.. Meek.
Prot +. II. Orago had charge OF the squad,
aud read the appropriate portions oil the
ritual.
In all the cemeteries, members Of the
Women's Relief Corps assisted the detRch-
ments OF the q. A. r, post, and large num-
beers Of people witnessed the services,
Many OF the graves, Of soldiers and others,
had been decorated with tlowers before
the soldiers arrived. In Mount Wood the
ritual was read at the grave Of Col. Joseph
