Transfers Of Business Properties.

Last FRIDAY MeSSrS. 1. u. w nlte
and S. d. Hirschmau purchased from
j. C. Wallace the store rooms adj
joining. the hotel property on the
west, which takes in the hotel parlor
and several bed rooms up stairs, in
consideration of $500. Possession
to be April l, 1890. This is very
desirable property and the purchas-
ers expect to realize largely from
their.investment.
Monday the sale of the business
property ON Walnut street occupied
by Geo. c. Hayes Il Co., was per-
fected j. r. Miller purchasing from
T. Pickenpaugh, possession to be
given April l, 1890. Mr.. Miller
paid $4,000 for the place and his
purpose is to move his cigar factory
and store there when Hayes lease
expires. The upstairs will be used
for the factory and the downstairs
for a sales room.
The same day Chas. &, Hayes
bought the Edward Price building
ON Main street, in consideration OF
$2,1 The down stairs is now used
by Gabe Holland for barber shop
and we learn that the purchase was
made for speculative purposes,
though Mr.. Hayes may move his
store there This also is good prop
erty, the value of which the owner
proposes to enhance by making ex-
tensiye improvements, one of which
is to grade the side walk down to
the street.
It is the rumored intention of Mr..
James G. Wallace to sell his splen-
did hotel property and go into bust
ness at some other point, some very
flattering offers having been made
him for the place. We hope Mr.. w.
will change his mind. He has been
in business here all his life, kept
the best house in the State outside
Of Wheeling, and has been a good
citizen. He should be encouraged
and solicited not to leave The fame
of his hostelry is broadspread and
is due entirely to his excellent quail
ties as a host. We want such men
as j. G. Wallace.

Evaporated Fruit.

Within IL radius Of forty miles Of
Rochester there are more than 1000
fruit evaporators, These evaporators
give employment during the autumn
and winter to about 10000 hands
whose wages average from SIS and s12
a week. Last season the production OF
these evaporators was about 30,OOO,O0C
pounds, worth at first cost about $2,O0O,-
600. The principal consuming coun-
tries abroad are Germany, Eugland Bel
GUM, Holland and France, in which
the new product has entirely displaced
the old fashioned sun dried fruit. West
Africa and Australia are also beginning
to call ior eva9orated fruit.

being the beautiful one of the Episcopal
church. The bride was given away rby

Dry Leaves Are Valuable.

America is the land of plenty, and it
is as well the land Of waste. Many
Europeans would become wealthy on
what our people throw away or neglect
entirely. In many European countries,
as soon the forest and tree leaves turn
and the high winds begin to scatter
them over the ground, the poor people
turn out and gather them up as care
fully as they would crop Of fruit or
vegetables. The small farmers pur-
chase those leaves, at unproportionately
high prices, and use them for fe tilizing
purposes. Leaves in those countries are
regarded as valuable property, and those
who gather them Wit out permission
and take them off are prosecuted, fined
or imprisoned.

We do not believe that one, five Or a
dozen commissioners could do the work
better or cheaper than it is now done in
Walwor,h county, In fact, if any fault
could be found with our board it would
be with carrying its economical methods
to an extreme, but that is virtuous
fault in the eyes of many and as rule

Were the powers Of county board
vested in five commissioners the tax
payers Of the county would inquire care
fully into the character and competency
Of the candidates, and commissioners
would be chosen whose reputation would
vouch for an INTELLIGENT administration
Of county affairs, and whose financial
responsibility would be a guaranty
against legislative jobbery. Such has
proven the case in every state where

BODIES BURIED AT SEA.

A Navy officer Describes the Services
Superstition Among the Sailors.
s'Why are the bodies of passengers who
die on ocean steamships at sea thrown
overheard instead OF being brought to
port? was asked of navy officer by a
reporter.
'ltdepends upon circumstances whether
it is advisable to bury person at sea who
dies on shipboard," was the reply. IF
the vessel is within day or two of the
end OF the voyage there is no good reason
for not bring lng the body into port, al
though superstition prevails among tie
sailors that if dead body is Kept on
board q vessel to cross the ocean it means
the inevitable destruction of the vessel.
And it is often the case that when a body
is shipped on board vessel to cross the
ocean the fact is kept from the knowledge
of the sailors"
''lt is contended by some that the
burial of a body at sea is not attended with
the solemn ceremony that it ought to
| be-"
"A burial at sea is very solemn and
impressive service. A death at sea casts
a gloom over the whole ship, and it is
natural for the officers of vessel to
e'fOANA OoOCA0dOIoA t%HA all
liners are firm in their conviction that
when person dies at sea, unless within
a few hours run to port, the body should
be given up to the deep. AS rue YES
sells are not provided with any place
where a BODY may be kept, nor do the
medicine chests contain any drugs or
chemicals by which it can be e1nbalmed.
Some of the lines, believe the White
Star and French Transatlantic, carry me-
tallic collins in which the bodies of those
d., ing at sea, when the urgent request OF
their friends is made, may be placed until
the vessel reaches port. But there is no
law, as some have asserted, which makes
it compulsory to bury body at sea.
CAS- for the burial service, the body is
usually sewed up in canvas and heavy
pieces Of iron, and either CRATE bars or
shot are fastened to it to cause it to sink.
Then the body is taken to the gangway
and the officers and crew are assembled
by the captain, who ready the piscopal
burial service, as prepared for such oc-
casions, the ship being stopped mean
while. The service being completed, the
plank upon which the body rests is tipped
up and the body slides into the ocean and
sinks, being carried down by the heavy
weights. Then the vessel is put on her
course and goes ahead. Surely there IS
nothing inhuman or unbecoming in this

Why 1t Was Not Good,

Richard Il. Dana was going by negro
church in Boston one evening, when the
notion took him to enter and see what was
going on.
He looked about over the CONGREGATION
listened to the minister for a few minutes
and then quietly retired. In the vestibule
one OF the official members stepped up 10
him and expressed regret that they hadn't
more attractive preaching to offer the gen
teman.
Mr.. Dana answered politely that he
bought the preaching very good. But
he colored brother insisted on apologize

We are now told, with all the vari-
Gus contortions of English that the
cultured Republican editors can
command, that the murder of John
NJ. Clayton was political in it's char
acter. Thus an old issue is re-
vamped. We are brought face to
face with the Republican idea that
for crime to be really criminal it
must be political. Nor is this all. A
political crime is sometimes commit
ted in the North. One man kills
another in political dispute, and
negroes are mobbed in Ohio, be-
cause, under the laws of that State,
they want to send their children to
the common schools, but all this goes
for nothing. There is nothing really
criminal about a political crime, I'M
less it is committed in the South,
and then it takes the shape Of treason
and felony.-AtIant0 Constitution.
The trouble with all this-which
is well put, both as to its logic and
its irony-is that mobs, terrorism and
assassination constitute a political
system at the South, while at the
North crimes growing out of politics
or race disputes seldom occur, are
sporadic and are no indication of the
state of public sentiment. A few of
the more enlig htened newspapers at
the South, like the Constellation, may
denounCe such murders as that of
Clayton. But, at heart, in their ut
most feelings, Southern Democratic
politicians and the solid body of the
Democratic party at the South dc
not believe that Republicans at the
South have a right to be candidates,
! to vote and to contest elections de-
C1ded by fraud at the South The
s ulld South believes in preventing
R republicans from going to the polls
or in driving them away from the
polls if they venture to approach, OF
in lFalsel V counting their votes, or il
stealing and destroying the ballot
boxes that contain majority of Re
publican b allots. The inevitable
consequence of this belief is assas
sination, if no other course will effect
it's purpo SEES.
The able newspaper from which
the above extrac, is made purports tt
represent t he new South But ST
far as polit. lcal methods indicate, an(
so far as I'm civilized methods for de
frauding or outraglng the suffrage
franchise ar e concerned, the "nev
