The worlds as wet as rl7S-.

Spring seems far away
Sing out, o blackbird, my king,
My heart is sick for the spring,

And the lily's in bud, and the rose,
Perhaps one would scarcely remember
To grieve for day Of November;
But nobody knows!

Water Works.

The next public improvement
which we need and should have is a
good system Of water works. 1t will
take money, and a good deal of it,
but no improvement we can make
will pay better return on the in
vestment. The reduction in insur-
ance rates will save the town several
hundred dollars every year, and the
privilege taxes from those who use
the water will pay good interest
on the cost of the plant. For sewer
age purposes water works will be of
incalculable advantage, and the value
of every piece of property in the cor
porate limits would be enhanced.
For street sprinkling in dusty wealth
er, our people would receive much
comfort and pleasure, and merchants
would save many dollars every year
in damaged goods. Good water
works will add to the Importance OF
the town in every respect, and will
materially aid in securing new enter
prises Of every kind. Let the Board
give the question thorough considera
ton and investigation. With con.
cert Of action on the part of all the
business men we can easily secure
this great public improvement.

The notice of the Secretary of
the Warren County Bible Society
which will be found in another
column of this paper deserves more
than passing notice, or momentary
thought. The work of the Bible
Society is one which ought to enlist
in its prosecution all the enthusiastic
love and spontaneous liberality and
earnest effort of every Christian of
every denomination. The Bible lies
at the very foundation Of the church,
boththe cause of its existence and rule
ofitslife tits both the producing cause
Of all church work and the means
by which that work is accomplished.
Take the Bible out of the hand of
home or foreign worker in Christ's
cause and at once his inspiration and
his means for doing his work is gone.
The publication of the Biblepure and
simple, is one of the church's grand
est works, and one which no denomi-
nation could possibly do so as to COM
mand the confidence of the christian
world. 1t is in its very nature a
common work for all. The Ameri-
can Bible Society is simply the
union of all denominations to do
this work. And yet how meager
are our gifts and small our enthusi-
asm in this cause. Certainly it
ought not to be hard to secure q large
and liberal contribution from every
chulch in the county to this cause.
We hope to see in the meeting of this
society this year representatives from
every part of the county, and an
enthusiasm which will put Warren
county among the very foremost in
this cause. Let every Minister in
the county take hold of this cause,
work up an interest in his own
church, and see that one or more
representatives attend the meeting
here, bringing with them liberal
contribution from his church.

Wheeling Leaves for Dayton-A New
Pitcher-Other Notes.
The Wheeling base ball team got away
for Dayton yesterday morning in great
shape, and we may expect to hear coed
report from the boys this evening. Day.
ton has a strong club, but they will have
to put up fine article of ball if they sue
ceed in getting the best of the Wheeling
boys, and nothing but zigzag curve will
fool the heavy hitters of the team.
Owing TO the illness of Ziegler, and
Brodie's explosion, the club Is rather
weak in the box, unleJs Dunn will 20 in
and pitch. But President Howell has de-
termined to keep the boys on their success
ful gait, if possible and has secured the
services of a Young pitcher, who gives
promise of being good one, and will send
him on to join the club in a couple OF days.
If he proves as good as his friends antici-
pate, Wheeling will have three OF the belt
pitchers in the League. The portly but
hustling President is doing all in his
power to make the club success, aud
that his efforts will prove successful is un-
doubted. So far no one has any cause for
complaint.

A BLASPHEMOUS CLAIM.
A Religious Impostor, Who Claims TO be
Jesus Christ.

A Religious Impostor, Who Claims TO be
Jesus Christ.
NRw YORK, May 5.-A Chicago dis
patch to the Herald says: Rev. George
Jacob Schweinfurth, the particular flower
OF the Beekmanites, has heretofore simply
claimed to be Christ. Now he unre-
servedly asserts his right to be known as
Jesus Christ. Mrs. Beekman, the founder
of the sect, and, after her death, Mr..
Schweinfurth, both claimed that they were
Christ, but in sense that admitted of
considerable pettifogeing, for they gener-
ally accompanied it with the exclamation
that every Christian was, in one sense.
| Christ
But MIR. Schweinfurth is no longer con-
tent with such shuffling as this, and has at
last come out boldly with the claim that
he is not only Christ, but the Christ-in
fact, that he is Jesus Christ. He claims
to be the veritable Jesus who was born at
Bethlehem and was crucifed on Calvary.
THE NEW CHRIST INTERVIEWED.
Mr. Schweinfurth is at the residence of
Mr. F. P. Ward, No. 1909 Wolfram street.
Mn Ward is a devoted disciple and de-
votee Of Schweinfurth, and at her home l
was permitted to see him. The Beekman-
ties are very jealous sect, and do not per-
nit every one TO see their Christ.
Mr.. Schweinfurth wears auburn whis-
kers, and his hair is parted in the middle.
He ia not unlike in personal appearance
the pictures of the Saviour, and prides
himself on the resemblance. He would
not say, however, though l asked him,
why he had come to Chicago to make the
startling revelation as to who he really
was.
AT sATAN's HEADQUARTERS, EVIDENTLY.

This in the face of the fact that the new
city administration doesn't propose to in
terfere with gambling, but will permit the
dens to run under police surveillance,
would indicate that Mr.. Schweinfurth
probably doesn't appreciate the extent OF
the contract he has undertaken.

baby By knocking its head agai nst the

knife. The wife had Jumped from the
couch when her husband arose. Divining
his purpose, she threw herself over the in
fants' crib and tried to save her baby, bat
the mad man pushed her aside, and, catch
ing up the little one, while the mother
shFieked in agony, he beat out its brains.
Selling knife the manisc pursued the
woman from the house. A squad Of police
found him back in the death chamber
pacing up and down singing lullaby TO
the mangled infant which he held tender
ly in his arms. Blood was streaming from
a wound in the mans neck, inflicted in an
attempt at self-desiruetiOn. The doctors
say be is a hopeless lunstic. They fear
that as a result of yesterdays horror, the
wife's mind also is destroyed.

Conway says. There are 1900 men al
work at the advance and 1900 are now
idle None are working at the reduced
rates except those at the Nickel Plate
mines at Mcdonald station, on the Pan
handle road, $50 in number.
President Conway, whose headquarters
are in this city at present, last night re-
ceived telegram from the men to the
effect thot they would be on strike to-
morrow, and asking him to explain the
situation to the men at meeting to be
held there on Monday evening.
An important letter was written yester-
day by John Flannery, the leader of the
K. of L. miners, and given to President
Conway to be presented to the miners at
Imperial The letter shows that the K. OF
L. leaders agree with the N. P. U. that
the 74-cent rate can be paid, and that de-
teTmined stand should be made for it.
This is sufficient to show that there is no
trouble between the two rival miners or
CARNATIONS on prices.

New York from London Thursday that the
representatives of the American copper
mines had broken off negotiations with the
bankers holding the copper as collateral OF
the French Copper Syndicate. One prom

source, which stated that instead of failing
to agree, the American representatives had
concluded a new agreement with the
French syndicate, the terms Of which
would not be divulged until the represent

American companies for ratification.
The principal aim of the French syndi-

to have the output Of the American mines
