The stenbenvIIle Bridge.

The falseworks under the channel span
of this bridge are now completed, and the
work of removing the old bridge will be-
gin at once. The mssons are experiencing
less difficulty in removing the old pier
than they anticipated. The stone was
laid in Louiaville cement, but of a much
poorer quality than is made to-day, and
while the stones are we'll bonded together
the cement is not very hard set. 1t will
take about ten DAYS TO remove the pier TO
the wster's edge, from whence thorough
examination of the foundation will be
made. 1t may be that the fOun alton
also will have TO he taken out. in which
case the work of renewing will be very
and long.

AInst TrIhn,a to Merit.

The following from the last issue of the
wellsburg Local, will be endorsed by
every one of the thousands who have par
taken of the excellent accommodations of
the Hotel Brunswick, under the admins
tration of Martin Thornton;
Duringa recent visit to Wheeling we
were sumptuously entertained by our old
friend Martin Thornton, at the Bruins
wick. As Fair times are drawing nigh, it
would be well enough for folks purposing
to visit the Bridge City, to psste the ad-
vertisement of the new Brunswick, 1l35
and 1877 Market street, in their hats, or
hornets as the case may be. They will
find it a very satisfactory place TO stop
at, any time, when visiting Wheeling.

AN INPOSTER,
Taken In by the Police, Yesterday, and Sent
to Jail.
HE WAS 4 JOHNSTOWN SUFFERER, u
And Appearances Indicate he Had Made i
Pay Pretty Well.
OTHER CRIMINAL HAPPENINGS.

Yesterday afternoon about four o'clock
man apparently about sixty years ofsge,
went into the wholesale store of Barnes &
McGregor, and exhibiting a small pass
book, announced he WAS sufferer by the
late YOUNGSTOWN food, and solicited aid.
Mr.. McGregor made an examination OF the
book. and came to the conclusion that the
man was an impostor. He stepped out
with the book, for q moment, and the fel-
low taking the alarm skipped out. Mr..
McGregor gave chase, but the sufferer was
not captured until h. had got up to the
bridge, where he was bent on making
tracks for the soil Of Ohio. He was
brought back down town, and turned over
to Officer Jack West, who took him before
Justice Arkle.
At the office of tine Justice q careful ex-
animation of the book was made. On the
first pages was long and rambling story,
the purport of which was that the bearer,
Robert Jones, had been authorized by the
Mayor of Johnstown and Adjutant Gen.
eral Hastings TO solicit subscriptions for
his own use; that he had lost his wife and
four children by the flood, together with
his house, and that in the house, at the
time it was swept away, was III hundred
and 10 dollars" The story was wretched
as to chirography, and horrible as to or
biography, and was evidently fake Of the
first water.
Following the Introductory chapter was
q list of contributions, headed by one OF ~
and another of S., and the total amount OF
the money recorded was very considerable.
Interspersed among the subscriptions were
short paragraphs about the history or the
suffsripgs of the bearer. One OF these
souibs stated that Jones was IAN old
soulder. Second Ohio Calvary: Co A, Is
cors, a sufficient indication that ne had
suffered in education as well as in other
things.
Justice Ankle asked Jones to give an ac-
count of himself, and from his story 1t Is
surmised that he lives in Belmont county,
probable somewhere back Of Bellaire. DE
said he left his daughter in front OF saloon,
in Bellaire, Friday, and that friend in
Benwood had taken charge OF her. He
was held in $500 to answer before the grand
Jury, upon hearing which ne attempted to
bride the Justice, Officer West and Con-
stable Lauchlin to let him go. He at first
offered to divide dollar with them, but
on being assured that that was not enough
money, he generously raised it to dollar
and a half. He was consigned to jail.

HINTS ABOUT HORSES.

Do NOT be in too much of . hurry to breaA and work the colt. Give the animal 8 chance to develop.
 HALTER-BREAK the colt early. It is a good deal less trouble to manage little thing than a big one, unless the little thing Is a wasp.
 THE imperfections, blemishes and dis eases of many young animals, which induce their owners to ask for medical treatment to remove, will often disappear With tue growth of the animal.
 GIVE more attention to the feet of your horses If your sheer is not an intelligent man find one that is. There is much more to shoeing horse than simply fitting and | mailing shoe to the foot. DIVERTED horses means sick horses sooner or later. There is no sense in overfeedlug any animal, but there would seem to be less in overfeeding the horse than in overfeed- ing any other animal on the farm. IT is the duty of every farmer, the Au- burn (N. Y.) Gazette claims, to keep one | horse that is safe for the women folks to handle. If farmers would teach their wives and daughters how to manage horse there l would not be 50 many accidents. A WRITER on equine subjects gives what he says is an Arab test: "Observe your | horse when he is drinking out of brook II, III prlnRluB uoWA uIS Aoou3 Ao | square, without bending his limbs, he pos sesses sterling qualities and all parts of his body are built symmetrically."
 NEVER whip a horse when he is fright ened or nervous, or try to force him up tc
 the object that has caused tho alarm draw
 in on the reins, suddenly speak out with
 assurance that you are not afraid, then turn
 the animal little way from the unpleasant
 sight and bid it go. A blow of Q whip upon

MOCKERY OA JUSTICE.

The so-called trial of Father McFad- den and score of Irish peasants, some for the murder of Police Inspector Mar tin and others for conspiracy connected herewith, which commenced at Mary borough last week Wednesday, is still going on and is likely to occupy at least another week or two. Dublin castle has made up it's mind that the prisoners shall be convicted, and has taken char acteristic measures for gratifying it's desire. The law, which always presses hardly upon political and agrarian pris- oners in Ireland, has in this case been twisted and strained in scandalous and shameless fashion. Catholic priests and peasants are being tried by Tory jury, all the men known to be of their nationalism, or even of mild liberalism, having been excluded therefrom. Should any of the prisoners be convicted by this packed jury, ninety-nine Irishmen out of 100, and a majority of Englishmen, rwiA regard it as attempted judicial murder, and an effort to carry out the sentence would inevitably ssarouse a storm of indignation sufficient to over- whelm the government and it's base instruments. Had the jury been fairly empanelled, there would have been nc doubt of the result, for the prisoners were arrested haphazard, in the hope that some among them might prove to be the maddened men who stoned and struck the unfortunate officer. There is absolutely no evidence against them, save that supplied by the policemen. whose versions of the affray which led up to Martins death vary to an extraor. dinary degree.
