BelIs!re Nall Works.

Last nights Bsllsire Independent said
"Some of the nailers state that no pro-
position is now pending between the Bell
aire Nail Works and the nailers, because
the Company informed the nailers that il
they would make proposition to work for
fifty per cent reduction on cold nails and
thirty per cent on hot nails the proposition
would be considered. The nailers refused
to make any such proposition, hence no
negotiations are now pending. This
would mean thirty per cent less than any
other mill in this section of country is pay
ing. The nailers are anxious to 90 to
work, and offered to resume operations
here at the same terms as the Belmont, in
Wheeling. is working on at present"

TERMS


The Kanawha Valley seems destined to
70 on q genuine tear with the new enter
prise and energy that has come into Its
people. The business men of that section
are enthusiastic over the prospects for new
railroads, and the consequent development
ofthe rich natural resources which will be
opened up to market. 1t is gratifying TO
observe that the @. & o. railroad has
adopted a new policy, with the extension
of its line. and it's management is heart
and hand in the good work. Branch lines
will be built "a rapidly as possible up the
numerous short creeks and rivers tributary
70 the Kanswka. and eminent authorities
claim that they will develop the richest
coal and timber territories Of the country.
The growth of the Kanawha river coal
trade in the last few years has been moth
ing less than marvellous. The reports for
the last year shows that over 10000, 600
bushels of coal were shipped by waterand
rail to the Cincinnati market. The
quality is equal to any, and the
quantity is inexhaustible. With free
river transportation, unimpeded by ice,
and open all the year round, with
liberal freigbts by rail, the Kanawha Val
ley coal operator has a great advantage
over Pittsburg competitors. lie should
enter the Southern market and take 1t for
his own. All reasonable prediction will
be falsifsd, if that is not the outcome OF
the new energy which is now developing
that section.

WITH THEIR DYING CHILD.
A Chicago Family Taken from Ship and
Placed on a Barren Island.

A Chicago Family Taken from Ship and
Placed on Barren Island.
CINCINNATI, March 16.-Dr. Ashford,
of Newport, KY, was called to the BAHIA
ma Islands a few weeks ago to attend a
former patient, Frank Beal, who is at Mas
sau for his haalth.
On board the ship Cienfuegos, which
sailed from New York, besides DR.. Ash
ford, were a Chicago family, Charles F.
Smith and wife, their little daughter An
ME, and maid Soon after the vessel left
port, Annie Smith showed symptoms of
illness. DR.. Ashford finally visited the
sufferer and found it to be suffering from
malignant diphtheria.
At Nassau, New Providence, the ship
was auarantined for twelve hours, and the
sick child, with her parents and maid, was
placed in a sailboat and sent with bedding
and provisions enough to last one day, to
the island Of Athal, a mere coral reef, that
is used for a pest hospital. A couple of
tumble down shanties are the only evil
dences that the island was ever inhabited,
and, indeed, three years ago several yell
low fever patients were sent there to die
The island is devoid of veg staion, the only
living thing upon it being a mammoth
cactus plant.
On this desOlate spot the Smiths passed
four DAYS of torture which ended in the
death Of the child. Steamships only pass
that way once in fourteen days. From
the day of Annie's death it would be ten
days if they waited for steamer, with the
chances even then against their being Ia
ken aboard, for the people about the Ba-
hamas are really more afrain of diphtheria
than they are of yellow fever. Under
these circumstances Mr.. Smith chartered
twO-mssted ssel that runs between Mas
sau snd the Florida coast to convey him
and his family 20 Florida, whence they
found railroad transportation to Chicago

ANY one casting even a cursOry glance
down the lace counters of the dry-goods
shops will notice great quantities of colored
black and white gilded tulles and gauzes.
largely used for ball gowns. But one
woman with clever fingers and not a very
long purse INDUCED in one yard of block
tulle with tiny gold lines running through
it, turban shape at the bonnet counter
and one or two gOld-tipped black feathers,
and she went home to evolve a theatre
bonnet Now, that cost me just 81, and
l don't think I could have touched 1t
at the millin RS under S. or $10,"
she remarked when the trick
was completed, and she turned it about
with great satisfaction. "After all it Is
not so much the materials that the bonnet
maker charges for, but the taste and skill
that only come of loDge practice, and any
woman should be able to learn to trim hats
and bonnets nicely if they would only ex-
ercise judgment and observe the fashion
able patterns.
Some one speaking of what will suit best
the white-haired grandmother of to-day
suggests for state occasions black velvet
unOrnamented except by it's own rich
folds and bits of fine lace at throat and
wrists. When woman has arrived at the
dignity of northumberland and years that
have whitened her hair or oven soft
tened it with gray, black is then her refuge.
The pearly tints of skin and the white hair
here find the best setting, and need never
wear gloomy look if the weaTer is per-
son of pleasant temperament. Black silk
is one of her strongholds, and she wears it
in common with the youngest and rosiest
young women. Jet will Tighten the tone
and give an air Of great elegance, while
touches of lavender, purple and white are
admissible and becoming. For home wear
the simpler these gowns the better the
taste, and caps of lace, muslin and rib
bon add the little look of motherliness
that is always to be admired.
AS sudden and unanticipated as was the
advent of the Hsdiug veil, so rapid is its
disappearance. For while every woman
OF sufficient means to buy pocket hand
kerchief INDUCED herself in one of these
enormities, and wore it with persistence
and courage that could not but command
respect Now they have vanished as their
originator has from off the face of this con-
tinent. They have become vulgar, said
one leader fashion, and laying hers aside
she set the example for all New York. In
the place of the former great spread of lace
appears narrow veil, heavily dotted or
entirely plain, reaching just below the
nose and tied neatly at the back, and the

NEW YORK, March 16.-The greatsoelai
aUonv in the metropolis is over LOT IL iS
~ known definitely who will dance In
,bs centennial quadrille at the Washing
ton centennial ball. The committee on
entertainment had arranged that the open
inc dance should be a quadrills' 70 20
composed of sixteen couples, anu ~ voc
originally intended that these tniIy-t"o
select dancers should represpresent Ia .n.
lies of revolutionary distinction, anu .na'
thew should all be cOstumed in the ias1loh
Of ia The announcement crea'eu
0reat stir in New York society
Circles and the excitement soon e1'
tended to Boston, Philadelphia, MaS9-
inoton and other cities where the oescenu-
ants of the revolutionary blue bloods re-
sided of course there was scramDle
among the bloOded women OF the lanu ioA
the distinction OF dancing IN the centen
NAL ouadrille, and before the committees
had time to realize the effest OF their &c
tion thew had l 800 applications on name.
Bnt the trouble did not stop there. MANY
of the wealthlest families in New YORK
had no blue blood in their veins, and they
at once gave it out cold that If they were
to be excluded from the centennial dlstlnc-
tions their pOcketbOOks would Do
closed, and there would Do Lo
money advanced toward deiIaylng
the expenses of the centennial celebration
This mt the committee in hole, so com
promise had to be effected. So the list OF
ladies who are to dance in the centenaia'
ousdrille has bsen made up, asd IL Is
about "half and half" That Is, about
half the names on it are recognized as rep
resentatives of revolutionary families OF
distinction, while the other half represent
our modern moneyed aristocracy. vi the
former class are Mrs. Charles Frances Ad-
ans. of Boston; Mrs. Benz amin Harrison,
of Washington; Mrs. Alexander Ham
iltCn. Mrs. Elbridgs Gerry, Mrs
John Jay, and Miss Garcia Livingston, all
of New York. In the second class are IN
cluded Mrs. Rutherford B. Hayes, Mrs
Grover Cleveland, Mrs. Levi P. Morton,
Mis-. William Aston, Mrs. De Peyster,
Miss Shermerhorn, the sister of Mrs. Astor,
and Miss Paul, of Philadelphia, also rela-
ted to the Astors.
The sixteen favored ladies are presuma-
bly, hapy. but how about the 10000, or
more. who have been snubbed? The
Washington centennial ought to be great
affair, but few more sassiety" fakes
like this will bring ridicule upon the event,
and it will come TO an inglorious conclu-
sion.

THE NATIONS EN-PRESIDENTS.
The change in the administration has
caused some crank to inquire; What shall
bedone with our ex. Presidents? The query
does not have much point, relating to such
men as GROvER CLEVELAND. The pub
lie will recognize that they can take care
of themselves Mr.. CLEVELAND retires
from the White House at an earlier age
than most of the Presidents have entered
it. IA rule, the man who has the ability
and pluck to become President, will find a
way TO maintain himself with honor when
he becomes a private citizen.
There is no more reason why an ex-
President should be made pensiOner on
the public bounty, by making him men,
Der Of the United States Senate, than Sen
ator or Representative should be pensiOned
into some minor official capacity. 1t
would be a bad policy to begin, and once
begun, there is no certainty where it would
stop.
At no time in the nations history has
there been more than four living ex-Presi-
dents. Twice, for a few months only,
have there been that many. Two ex-Pres-
idents is as many as we have seen at any
time since the war.
The private fortunes of the Presidents.
amassed before entering Office, or from the
liberal SALARY Of the position, have been
generally sufficient to maintain them with
proper dignity The majority retire at an
advanced age. A few years of life at most
are before them. These are likely to be
devoted to the more pressing duty Of put
ting their houses in order for the next
world than aIduOus services in this.
A man who has made a good President
has right to ask freedom from further
labors In most cases the rest will be
more grateful than any Senatorial hOnors.
