Industrial Notes

Work on the Standard mill warehouse is
progressing nicely. The timbers for the
first floor are down and brick work COM
menced.
The gas was very weak at the mills on
the other side of the river yesterday. A
heat of iron after soaking with the light
gas for two hours failed to show red on the
under eide of the slabs.
The plate mill at the Standard seemed to
have a contrary spell yesterday morning
The fret heat charged at o'clock was not
rolled at noon, and TO cap the climax, a
brass bearing was broken which required
considerable time to replace.
The Bridgeport Glass Co., whCse product
consists exclusively of fruit jars, is work
ing steadily with g full force Of men.
Their season for sales is now on, and sev-
eral car losd shipments have been made
during the past week.

THE LITTLE TYCOON,

Under the Direction Of willard Spencer,
the Author, to be Here Friday Night.
On Friday evening, Willard Spencer
Little Tycoon and his own company,
under his personal direction, will appear
at the Opera House, and as this is one OF
the most popular operas that ever visited
Wheeling, as well IS one of the best COM
NAMES. the house will doubtless be crowd
ed. Reserved seats 90 on sale this morn
inc at Houses music store, and it is said
that several opera parties have been formed
to attend the last performance of the sea-
son at the Opera House. The Fort Wayne
Gazette of Sunday last says Of the opera
and company;
One of the sweetest and most musical OF
operas. whose tuneful melodies and catch
inc airs enchant the air, and whose splen-
did costuming and superb stage setting
pleased the eye, Willard Spencer's Lit
lie Tycoon" was presented for the second
time this season at the Temple, last even
inc. with far greater success than on It's
previous engagement. That Mr.. Spencer
has the reigniDg operate success on tine
boards. is clearly demonstrated, II Fort
Wayne audiences can be taken IS crlte-
rion. and Notwithstanding the inclemency
of the weather, both the player and the
plsygoer seemed to Ne in all their element.
The ensemble is composed OF artists
who seemed to have mastered their work
and benefttingly occupy the place allotted
to them among the principal members OF
the cast. Miss Catharine Linyard dis
tipeuished herself by the excellence of her
voice, which showed great culture. Miss
Mamie COrbic and Hattie Arnold suffered
none in comparison with Miss Linyard.
The best of all, however, was the clever
impersonation of General KnickerbOcker'
by r. E. Graham. His topical song caused
much merriment.
J. Aldrich Libby, Harry-Skinner and j.
F. McGovern respectively filled their re-
spective roles and taking it from an ar
tistic standpoint "The Little Tycoon" has
proven the greatest operate success that
has occupied the boards of the Temple
this season. The attendance was excel
lent. considering the weather.

RAILROAD WORK.
How 1t is Progressing Along whse

How 1t is Progressing Along Wheeling
Greek.
There is a good deal of activity along
the line of the Wheeling and Harrisburg
road, between the Peninsula and the
Whitaker mill, and much progress has
been made within the past two or three
weeks. The contractors, however, have
been greatly hampered by the legal diff
culties which have arissp, both from the
condemnation proceedings and the injunc.
ton on Twentieth street, and much time
has thereby been lost 1t looks now, how.
ever, as If part of these obstacles would
soon be removed.
Back of the Whitaker mill force Of
quarrymen are getting out stone for bridge
work, and have made g very decided i'm
preston on the big ledge of sandstone
there The stone being taken out is first
class, and many great rOughly-squsred
blocks are standing about awaiting re-
moval to various parts of the line.
At the mouth of Coal run, east of the
Whitaker mill, work on the northeast
bridge abutment is far advanced A
steam derrick is in operation here,
and the masons will soon have
the sbutment up to grade
From Coal run north as far as the Rey-
mann brewery the rosdbed is practically
ready for the ties, save for one small
stretch, which week or so of good work
will close up. At the brewery, the boilers
have been removed to the new site outside
the rosdbsd, on the creek bank, and the
old boiler house is being torn away. This
will clear the ground in that vicinity fol
the roadbed, and very little grading will
make it ready. A force of men are also
hard at work beneath and north of the
Seventeenth street bridge, cutting through
the made ground for the roadbed. Thi'
cut will be extended northward toward tbs
brewery stable, where some filling and
pile work will be necessary.

THE PROSPECTS.

What a Delegate to the Amslgamated
Convention Says
In conversation yesterday one of the
delegates recently elected to attend the
Amalgamated Convention next month said
among other things the following: THE
scale now in force will be presented again,
with possibly a few minor changes. II
will not be accepted immediately, and the
puddlers will be asked by the msnufac-
turers to stand fifty cent cut.
"All the mills have their warehouses

red to make pretty lively fight. Our
people know exactly how much iron there
is in the country, end when and where II
is available. President Weihe and Secre-
tsry Martin keep us az we'll posted on the
iron market as anyone can be, and the ac'
ton of the convention will be III great

"a stop of month or two in the sum-
mer would be benefit to the trade, and
would be good for the men if it was only
get-at-able. The trouble is, many iron

Take the bridge factories for example.
All their work is according TO plans fur
nished by engineers, and their orders come
principally in the summer, We can not
shut down such places, aud it is no use to
try"
"Sheet iron business is good, but the
trade liz all in large sheets and plates.
These are not kept in stock, because each
order differs from all others Light sheets
are not in demand, and the warehouses
are we'll stocked with that class of goods. !"

The Whitaker Mill Company has just

ditiOn to their mill, south of the creek.
