WHEELING, w. Va, July 21.-The county
commissioners today appropriated $4,000 for
the relief of the sufferers by the flood In
the county. Resolutions were adopted ask
ing the West Virginia Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress to secure the appro-
priation in Congress t0 rebuild the bridges
and retaining walls washed out ON the
national road. The county engineer has re-
ported that not siugle road is left in the
county in condition to be used ami scarcely
bridge is undamaged. 1t was ordered that
all roads be declared closed and notices
posted on all crossings that persons using
the roads do $ , at their own risk.
The seventh body of the victims of the
flood of last Thursday night was found to-
day. Eight bodies are still uncovered and
several persons are missing. The Balti-
more & Ohio has nearly completed tempo-
rary bridge over the creek at Main street.
The Pittsburgh, Cincinnati & st. Louis rail-
road will run its first train out tomorrow
morning. The G. and p. bridge over Whis-
key Run, on the Ohio side, is also being re-
built. The b. sS O. has large force of
the Pittsburgh Division, but the preliminary
surveys have to be made as in the case of a
new road before much progress can be
made.

Among the names we have seen and heard
prominently mentioned as a candidate for
Governor is that of Gen. A. S. Twitchell, Of
Gorham. 1t has been long time since our
county has been honored by any party, with
a candidate for this high Office. and we have
long felt that it was due to us; and that,
having good men in both the political par
ties. it was no more than right that our
claims should be recognized III the Re
publcans should nominate General Twitch-
ell, we believe they would find in him very
strong candidate. lie is especially strong
and well known among the old veterans,
whose cause he has ever advocated, and the
temperance people could not complain. In
fact these two elements so strongly support
ed him in the last election, for the office of
Solicitor, that he came very near to an cleo
tion, running about 400 ahead Of the
general ticket, In the county; gain
ing especially in the southern dis
trict, where he is best known, in every
town. His own town, which went Democra-
tic by six majority on the Governor vote
gave him a majority Of fifty votes and in
the town OF Shelbourne, adjoining, only ten
votes were cast against him. He Is very
earnest in all his undertakings and In every
position in which he has been placed, has
proved himself worthy the confidence re-
posed in him. He Is entirely unassuming,
and the only thing wanting is a barrel,
which has been an essential element. of late,
in our elections. He could not buy the Of
fee; nor would he, if he could. But we
hope to see change in these bad methods,
and there is no better time than the present
to give the people to understood that money
Is not the only requisite in candidate for
office in New Hampshire. He is also a
strong protectiOnist, true to the best in
terests Of our State. and especially our
county; and no poor man who has sought
his aid was ever refused, because uf his not
being able to pay for his services.

The dancing season, 1t may now be said,
has fairly begun, fog or no fog, and the
many diversions for which Bar Harbor has
become noted will now go right along until
the giddy round Of fashionable pleasures is
brought to close by the final exodus Of the
summer SojOurners. The season is really
week behind that of last year. The hotels
do not have as many guests today as they
did year ago, which leads the croakers to
shake their heads and predict that Bar Har-
Dor has seen its best days. But these proph-

the growth of Bar Harbor has been such
that the cottage colony today Is larger than
1t ever was before. Moreover the call for
cottages continues.

THE DISMAL FOG.
How it Fretted the Fine People at
Bar Harbor.

BAR HARBoR, July 22.-Until the advent
of the very oppressive fog which came last
week, Bar Harbor visitors had for weeks
been enjoying charming weather. There
had been such an immunity from fog that
everybody was happy, and had almost for
gotten, if they knew it, that such thing ex-
listed at this favorite resort. On Wednesday
the fog shut in, and before the afternoon
waned, it had settled down so thick that OBJ
jects animate and inanimate were hardly
discernible in the open air. Main street,
which every pleasant afternoon, is resplen-
dent with snowy equipages and gorgeous
raiments, presented deserted appearance,
while the piazzas of hotels showed decimat.'

Confirmation of Certain Cosmic
Laws Of Oriental Science.

BosToN, July 23-[2 a. m.I-The astrono-
mers and scientific men in Cambridge and
Boston, having made extensive preparations
to view the total eclipse Of the moon last
night, were sorely disappointed. as the
weather conditions prevented the carrying
out of the experiments and observations as
planned. Following the rainstorm Of the
daylight hours, in the evening heavy mist
hung in the heavens and completely shut off
from sight her lunar majesty. According to
calculation, which can be made with unvary-
ing certainty, the moon entered the shadow
of the earth at 11.54 O'Clock, and remained
completely eclipsed till 1.36 O'Clock this
morning. She first touched the edge Of the
earth's shadow at 9.55 o'clock, and an hour
later entered the deep and true shadow. IL
took the moon nearly two hours to emerge
from the shadow, starting at 1.36, and finally
leaving the penumbra at 3.34 o'clock.
NEW YORK, July 23.-The total eclipse Of
the moon was seen from this city under the

appointed for the total eclipse Of the moon
IL was raining, and no observation could be
made, although extensive preparations had
been made TO photograph the moon. Satur-
day evening, Prof. Main secured photo
graph in which an object, supposed to be
satellite, was again caught by the camera.
ELMYRA. N. Y, July 23.-In Elmyra, sew
eral scientific observers made very careful
series of observations from the balcony of
Columbus laboratory, overlooking the Che
mung river and valley, on the meteorologi-
cal effect Of the ''cone of force" developed
by the coincident earth and lunar shadows,
finding abundant confirmation Of certain
cosmic laws laid down in oriental science
and tentatively advanced by John Ruskin,
After the midnight darkness a profound
stiffness OF air was noteworthy, the murky
and oppressive gloom being noted by hun
dreds OF sentimental or curious observers as
remaining long after the period Of obscura-

WASHINGTON, July 23.-The weather has
been clear throughout. The eclipse Of the
moon was plainly visible. No observations
were taken at the Naval Observatory.
DETROIT, Mich, July 23.-The eclipse was
seen here under perfect conditions. The sky
was absolutely clear Competent astonomi-
