There seems to be some disagreement among
the gentlemen holding the stock in the Mt:
Rose Cemetery Association. The majority OF
its members desire to improve the grounds OF
bury the dead. Only thirty dollars stock was
paid in and there has already been a dividend
of S96 so paid and the stockholders in general
think the dividends ought to be expended in
identifying the grounds instead OF holding the

Organized Yesterday by Elect
ing Directors and
4 GOOD SET OF OFFICERS.
About 1900 Acres Of Land Embrac.
ing 24 Farms Have Already Been
Leascd---Tcn Per Cent Paid
in on the Capital Stock.

The general meeting of the stock
holders of the recently incorporated
Wheeling Development Company called
for yesterday at the Chamber of Com
MERGE, by Messrs. N. B. Scott, @. F.
Brandfass, P. B. Dobbins, James Nc
Ginley and J. G. Brady, the incorpora-
tors, was fairly well attended and first
class organization effected. The aims
and objects of this new company have
heretofore been explained in detail by
the press of the city; briefly stated, the
principal object is to procure nearer
and better supply of natural gas, more
especially for the manufacturing inter-
ests of the community, than that now
furnished.
Mr.. id. Dubois presided over yester-
days meeting and Mr.. j. @. Brady acted
as Secretary. The first business trans
acted was the receiving of checks and
cash from those present in payment of 10
per cent of their subscriptions to the
capital stock. A brief discussion was had
as to whether it would be best to proceed
to organize under the general State law
or have special bylaws prepared and
adopted. It was decided to proceed
under the State law provisions with the
exception OF providing that the Board of
Directors shall consist of nine members,
instead of five as provided in the State
law, be bylaw of this organization.
This was done on motion of Mr.. P. II.
Moore, who thought nine would make a
more satisfactory and comprehensive
Board.
Mr.. George Wise stated that owing to
an unavoidable delay in procuring the
company's charter few gentlemen in
terested in the formution of the COM
pany had deemed it advisable to go
ahead and secure leases on some promis-
ing oil and gas property hereabouts,
Ex-SheriH Henry Kels, Of Marshall
county, had acted as their agent
in this matter and had secured
about 1880 acres lying partly in Ohio
bracing twenty-four farms in all. This
property lies along Boggs' run and ex-
tends up along to the headwaters of
Caldwell's run, and is almost one solid
tract. Mr.. Wise stated that one reason
the gentlemen he referred to had taken
it upon themselves to make these leases
was, that property in that territory was
being rapidly leased by other parties !;
one man leasing land had even gone so
far as to represent himself an agent for
this company. Mr.. Wise turned all the
leases secured through Squire Kels over
to the company.
An election for directors resulted in
Messrs. J. N. Vance, Joseph Dubois,
George Wise, n. B. Scott, Anton Rey-
mann, Cecil 4. Robinson, James McGin-
ley, Henry Beiberson and G. r. Hubbard
being chosen. The Board organized by
making Senator Scott President, and
choosing Mr.. J. G. Brady for Secretary
and Treasurer.
Messrs. Hubbard, Beiberson and Wise
with President Scott and Secretary
Brady, were made the Executive and
Finance Committee. The intention is
to proceed ut once with the work of
drilling.

that rate till April l, when the contrac-
tors will pay them at the rate OF IS SO

Something About the Novelties of the Sea-
son and Where to Get Them.
st. Valentines Day is once more near
at hand. Friday OF this week is the day
when the mails will be burdened with
handsome novelties and artistic concep-
tions which will be the mediums OF com
munication between earnest hearts. For
several days past the various art stores
have been displaying the latest fashions
and designs in valentines, those mystic
go-betweens OF human hearts, but at no
place in the city has there been richer,
more artistic display than that shown by
John w. Heiskell at No. % Twelfth
street. Brains OF designers have
been racked during the past few
thing new and striking against whose
fascination even adamantine must yield,
and judging from the display at Heis-
kelrs these efforts have not been j
vain. His attractive display embraces a
wide range in the pretty hand-painted
sachets OF vari-colored satin, silk and
plush, the gorgeous cushioned cards
that make such pretty table ornaments,
plush banjos, guitars, lutes and Tyres,
and heart-shaped affairs with painted
surfaces and tender inscriptions. Then
there can be found in Mr.. Heiskelps dis
play pretty novelties such as hand
painted ivorine tablets tastefully COM
bined with plush and satin, plush boots,
anchors and many other new conceits,
all artistic and dainty with their
delicate colorings, giimpses OF pretty
faces, OF flowers, birds or romantic seen
cry, coupled with sentiment, tender but
unobtrusive; they make charming SOU
venirs and tell the story OF love, be 1t a
timid breathing, hopeless fervor or the
boldncEs OF never-say-die love. There
are also to be found in Mr.. Heiskell's
display the less expensive valentines
in fact his prices range all the way from
five cents up to So. The lovers of pretty
things will do well to call and see this
