1.-THE people Of Wheeling are doomed
to two years more Of the present Mayor
atty administration it will simply be be-
cause Of their supine Indifference to the
result next Thursday, and not because
the opportunity is not afforded them for
a change to a more reputable admins
tration. The nomination OF DR., @, +,
Ulrich most undoubtedly affords them
this opportunity, He is q type OF our
best German citizenship, being an intel
llgent educated, liberal and progressive
man; ono who has had q broad expe-
rienCe in life and who has made his own
way in the world by the rectitudo OF his
character, He will I'LL the Office OIL
Mayor with credit to himself and with
honor to the city, and unless the voters
Of Wheeling prefer to perpetuRte the
incumbenCy OF this high place in its
present hands he will be our ohlel
Magistrate during the next two years.
1t isior the people OF Wheeling who feel
pride in the good name Of the city to
decide this important question on next
Thursday, and to them We appeal not to
assume that somebody else than them
selves will do the work and cast the bal
lots necessary TO achieve the much de-
sired change. Each voter whoSppreclaIes
the present situation must DO willing to
lend his influence and his vote to the
election Of DR.. Ulrich.

The news from Samoa is Of o most
startling character, and II reliable, is not
less serious than startling. II half Is
true there Is grave reason to apprehend
an open rupture between the United
States and Germany. Under such cir
cumstances this Government, to preserve
its honor, can do no less than take imme-
diate steps in the matter. Germany is a
great and powerful country, and should
a war BIO the result the United States
would find her IN antagonist not easily
overcome. II would be q matter to re.
greet should we End it necessary 10 have
a falling out with q power with which
we have always been upon friendly
terms, and, for the sake Of a continuance
OF the kindly feelings that have ever ex-
listed between the two countries, every
citizen will hope that the difficulties
may DO peaceably and satisfactorily adj
iusted. 1t is hard to believe that the
Government at Berlin countenances the
reported outrages at Samoa upon Amer
can citizens and the American flag by
German naval officers. We do not be.
lieye that Government will endorse the
action Of It's representatives.

A HONE MADE SCARE.

Pencil and paper soon he saw,
And seized them both. Said he, 'I'll draw
An oyer like the one so grum
Poor Jack heard growing, Fee-fo-fum.'
First, here's his forehead full of bumps,
And then his nose with three big humps,
And then two ears Of 'normous size,
And then two dreadful staring eyes,
And then a mouth from ear to ear,
With long, sharp teeth ike tusks." But here
The artist, with eyes open wide
In fright, gazed on his work and cried,
Mamma, mamma-come, come, please, do,
I'm very lonely without you;
And, OH mamma, I'm SO afraid
Of this old oyer that I've made"

Early Billiards.

In France the game of billiards did not
come thoroughly into fashion until the reign
of Louis XIV, with whom it was great ia
vorite The "Grand Monarque" suffered
much with indigestion, and his physicians
advised him to indulge daily in billiards, as
affording him means of gentle and salutary
exercise. a billiard table of the style of the
day was accordingly erected in a room near
the "Gil de Boeuf' at Versailles In this
saloon the courtiers used to congregate and
applaud the royal players canons in his
matches with the Duke de Villeroi and NJ.
De Chamillard, both of whom were far supe-
rior to the king, although they were too
loyal to defeat his majesty over often.
Nine. de Maintenon, though she would
have greatly preferred playing brelan, was
obliged to attend on these occasions, and re-
venged herself while acting as marker by
numerically quizzing the royal player when
his strokes were not successful. Later on,
however, when he was more advanced in
years, his adroit wife managed to keep Louis
XIV to herself by giving theatrical repre-
sensations in her own apartments, thus GUST
ing billiards from their place of honor in the
monarchs predictions. During his reign,
and indeed until the present century, the
billiard table by no means offered the perfec-
ton which it has now attained.
The elasticity of the cushions" was nil, the
pockets were SO wide as to render many
strokes impossible, and the ''cues" were de-
7oid of tips" or proceeds" unknown until
invented by Mnngin, some sixty years ago.
Screws" and "side" were utterly i'm
practicable. Up to the year 1880, tables"
were square, on heavy, clumsy looking legs
and were not the ornamental, mathematical
ly correct objects they are now.

Bees as Disnatchers.

An experiment has been made in England
which has resulted in proving that bees fly
faster than carrier pigeons, in fact that a
little, Insignificant looking, hot footed bee
can beat the handsomest pigeon home in five
cases out of six. This being the case, the fu-
ture must witness the supplanting of carrier
pigeons by carrier bees The latter have
much to recommend them for this purpose.
\ carrier bee will be hard to hit A marks
man that would bring down pigeon 'uld
utterly fail to hit q bee. Then there is moth ng
in pigeons tail to inspire the respect of q
foe. There is in bees. The rude hand of
the triher that would try to stop the carrier
bee in his errand would he withdrawn sud-
denly-and rubbed vehemently. With the
aid of photography the carrying of
long messages by bee would be a matter
presenting no obstacles A column Of read
ing matter could be fastened to its thighs,
and long dispatch affixed to one of its feet.
Clearly the bee has an important place to fill
in the wars Of the future.

SMOKE Over London.

Professor Chandler Roberts estimates the
weight of the smoke cloud which daily hangs
over London at about fifty tons Of solid car
bon, and $50 tons of carbon in the form Of
hydro-carbon and carbonic oxide gases. Cal
culated from the average result of tests made
by the smoke abatement committee the value
of coal wasted in smoke from domestic CRATES
amounts, upon the annual consumption of
5000, 900 of people, to GO, 257, 500. The cost Of
carriage on this wasted coal is calculated to
be e26S, $50, while the unnecessary passage of
about 100000 horses through the streets in
drawingit adds seriously to the cost of street
cleaning and repairing. Then there is the
cost of taking away the extra ashes, e43, 900
per year. Summing it all up, the direct and
indirect cost of waste coal may be set down
at e2,6OOOOO, plus the additional loss from
the damage done to property caused by the
smoky atmosphere, estimated by Mr.. Chad
wick at 100000, the whole aggregating at
a reasonable estimate 1900, 600, or S23, $780,

magistrate at the head of any people exceed
ing the number of 100000 who does not
receive a larger salary than the august,
potent and toiling. president of the United
States The shah of Persia, who has nothing
to do except to boss several hundred wives,
is in the enjoyment of an income of 30,OO0,-
600 year. Then there is the car of Russia,
whose chief duty is to keep from being blown
up. He is paid something like $4,000, 600
yearly. The dignifed king of Siam gets
along on a like sum.
The royal family of poor, miserable Spain
receive $500, 900 every year, and Italians
sleep out of doors and eat nothing but mac
caroni to make up purse of s., 900 and
more for their royalties. Such figures as
these console the British people somewhat for
their annual outlay, under specific laws, of
1891 900 on Victoria and her brood, to say
nothing of indirect extortions and Prerequisites.
That reformed pirate of the seas, the sui
tan of Morocco, is slightly compensated for
his self denial by an annual allowance of g.
100000, and the mikado of Japan receives
s., 100000 The impotent royalty of Egypt
draws 81 SD, 900 from the substance of that
tax ridden land, while the Hohenzollerns

ton or Massachusetts, in geographical area,
by the reigning duke and his purpled gang.
Portugal, Sweden and Brazil each spend
about 100000 on their kings.
With fewer people than live in some New
York wards, and with only two-thirds of
Rhode Islands area, the petty prineelings of
Schwarzburg- Sondershausen are paid $780,
900. On the other hand, the republic of france
allows her chief magistrate only 100000 but
naked little Hayti gives her presidential
crowd $780, 900 year. Switzerlands presi-
dent comes the lowest of all the nations of
the earth. His salary is $4,000 year. The
wholly useless governor general of Canada
receives 1000, and so also does the governor
general of Victoria, while the like function
airy in India has 100000.

LEANING TOWER OF PISA.

Near this cathedral stands the round mar
BILE belfry known as the leaning tower Of
Pisa from the fact that it deviates about
fourteen feet from the perpendicular. This
celebrated building, which is $50 feet in
height, consists of seven stories, divided by
rows of columns and surInounted by fat
roof and an open gallery, commanding e fine
view of the surrounding country. 1t was
erected during the twelfth century by the
German architect Wilhelm, of Innsbruck.
The popular belief is that this tower was not
designed to present startling appearance,
but that its deviation from the perpendicular
is due to the settling of its foundation. No
fear is apprehended of the tower falling,
however, as line dropped from the center of
the top viii fall inside the base, and there
fore it obeys the law of the center OF gravity
and SO preserves its balance.

How to Cut a Bottle.

A simple method of accurately cutting q
bottle, says Golden Days, is to place it upon
some level foundation and fill it with linseed
oil to the point at which you desire the line
of separation to occur. Then take an iron
rod of as great diameter as will pass into
the bottle, make it almost white hot and dip
it into the oil. After the lapse of a few
moments sharp crack is heard and the bot
tie is found to be as neatly cut as if with a
diamond. If the bottle be very thick and
the cracking sound not heard in few mo-
ments, little cold water thrown on the out
side Will accomplish the desired result.

Nonsense RHYMES.

= A man has lately died in England who has
done much to amuse children as well as
grown folk. His name was Edward Lear.
He was, explains Golden Days, the origin
ator of Mother Goose's Melodies" and of
Nonsense Rhymes" He wrote a Book Of
Nonsense, in which were such verses as these:
There was poor man who said How
Shall fee from this terrible cowf
Twill sit on O stile
And continue TO smile,
Which may soften the heart OF this cow"
'There was an old fellow of Crewd,
Who lived upon sawdust as food.
It's cheap by the ton,
And it nourishes one,
And that's the chief virtue Of food
Edward Lear was an artist of repute, a
well known author, and an intimate friend Of
Tennyson, but he win be remembered for his
funny rhymes alone.

Where Potatoes Came From.

Potatoes are natives of Chill and Peru, and
we're originally taken to England from Santa
p by Sir John Hawkins in 1863. Others
Sscribc their introduction to Britain to Sir
Francis Drake in 1856, while their general in
production is mentioned by many writer's as
occurring in 1892. Their first culture in Ire
land is referred to Sir Walter Raleigh, who
had large estates in that country about
Youghal, in Cork county. It is said that
potatoes were not known in Flanders until
1920 Hedyn says fine kind of potato was
first brought from America BY Mr.. Howard,
who cultivated it at Caldington, near Bed
ford, in 1865, and its culture became general
sooa after. Italy does not appear to loom Up

That Tired Feeling

Season is here again, and nearly every one
feels weak, languid and exhausted. The
blooo, laden with impurities which have
been accommodating for months, moves slug
gishly through the veins, the mind fails to
think quickly, and the bodyis still slower
to respond. Hoods Sarsaparilla is just
what is needed. 1t is, ina peculiar sense,
the ideal spring medicine. 1t purities,
vitalizes, ana enriches the blood, makes the
head clear, creates an appetite, overcomes
that tired feeling, and imparts new strength
and yigor to the whole body.
