TO FURNISH SAND.

Ii is learned from Mr.. J. l.. Shriyer that
a company will soon be formed in Wheel
ing to furnish sand TO the mills In this
vicinity and also for other purposes. 1t is
the intention TO purchase sand boat,
which contains machinery that will resch
sand at depth of twenty-five feet beneath
the surface of the water, so that the COM
pany will be enabled to get the best quality
Of sand which is to be found in the chan
nell The sand then goes through process
which removes all the loan, coal and peb-
bles from it, 60 that it is left ready for
immediate use in mills and in making
building material, etc., and the boat can
be operated in any season of the year, when
the river ia not frozen over, which is big
advantage. As it will be necessary to in
vest about $35, 600 in this enterprise, the
company will necessarily have to possess a
sufficient amount OF business TO justify
them. 1t is understood that Mr.. Shriver
will have associated with him in the enter
prise a number of Pittsburg gentlemen, who
see money 10 it.

THE FTNA MILL

A meeting of the directors of the Etna
Iron and Steel Company was held at the
office of the company yesterday. The Of
iicers' report showed that the output has
been very satisfactory and that if the plant
keeps mp IFS present production, the out
put for March will be much better than
any month in the past year. While the
demand is not heavy, the prices are i'm
proving and the outlook is good. At thu
meeting, the matter of providing n new
fuel for the concern was preached, but no
definite action WAS taken. The plan dis
cussed was the building of coal gas pro-
ducers, for the heavier furnaces. A ru-
mOred advance in the price of gas was the
cause for the discussion.

Some Facts for the Benefit of Those who
Suffer from Kidney and Liver Com
plants.
These diseases are the most deceptive OF
human disorders. The theory we have
found from our experience is that uneus-
pected Kidney Disorders are responsible
for IS per cent of the ordinary ailments OF
humanity. We believe that the kidneys
have more Influence on the health than
any other organs, and we know that the
Black Gin, used as directed, is the most
valued medicinal preparation before the
public for the cure of general symptoms Of
Kidney Disorders, such as Female Weak
ness, Gravel, Chronic Cstarrh Of the Blsd-
der, Chronic Rheumatism and Dropsy.
