A CRACKER FACTORY
And bakery on II Worry large Scale to be
ituiit Here.

And bakery Oh II Very large Scale to BE
liriit Hero.
For some time it has been quietly
rumored about tho city that the Wheel.
lug Bakery Company is making prepare.
tons 10 build a large bakery anu EN-.
bark in the baking business on a very
extensive scale with asview to develop
that branch OF trade in this territory. 1t
is a well known fact that the baking
business Of this city las never been
properly handled, and that what should
be n great industry lies quietly sleeping
until amakened by genius, business
activity, and skill, and unlimited CAPT
tai. all Of Which this company possesses.
Information OF the most reliable char.
ccter haa just been ii Iished the INTEL
LdExcEE that the agents OF the COM
pany are actively engaged in looking
for a piece OF property, centrally located,
and adapted to prosecuting baking On 4
very expensive scale. On the site, when
secured, q large bakery will be built,
equipped with all modern machinery
and appliances, the most improved
ovens now 10 use, md manned by the
most akillful workmen in the country.
The building OF 4 bakery is rendered
necessary to relieve the immense pres
sure o: trade from the Pittsburgh house
with which the Wheeling company is
affiliated. From oreati te ocean, and
throughout the entire breadth OF the
land the crackers, cakes, biscuits and
bread that bear the name OF Marvin
have become known for azcellerce.
They a!s a most popular table luxury
found in almost every house. Such is
the character Of the sooGe that are in
such demand that S. S. Marvin, with
his !mmeuse baking capacity, the largest
on the American continent, finds himself
no longer able 10 supply It. Their cele.
brated gooGs occasionally ind theif way
into the old world. u. .l-t
In connec,ioI with the above an
DenEcemeat, it may be- OF interest 10
know something OF the AMOUNT OF busi.
ness the Wheeling Bakery Company is
quietly doing il this community. 1t
has a greater volume OF trade and is OPP
Grating on q much larger scale than mcst
people are aware. For the las. few
years they hare given steady employ
ment to about twenty men, with a pay
roll OF about 81 GOO per month. They
handle one carload OF Marvin's crackers
daily, and are baking, here in the city,
into their celebrated Jubilee Bread, with
other nume!oue kinds, about two car
loads Of iourevery month. Their bread
and cakes haye an immenee sale over a
wide territory. About two years ago
they commenced the shipment OF bread,
and followed up this new idea with such
energy that at present their bread NAV
be had in any town within 100 miles OF
this city. The summer visitor after q
stroll through the moutaiR5 abolt Terra
Alta, Rowlesburg or kingwood, on re.
turning TO his hotel finds on the table
their elegant Vienna bread, while the
operators in the Washington, Manning
ton and Belmont oil fields fluid that there
is something more desirable to a hun
cry man than oil, and are satisfied with
Jubilee Bread from Wheeling.

The .UnlUnn Forever,


1t affords us pleasure to chronicle the
triumphs OF all local institutions and
make their success matters OF State
pride. When the USIoS ACCIDENT AND
BENEFIT ASSOCIATION vas organized it
was intended to meet n local demand for
life Insurance and retain for circulation
in our " State the thousands OF dol.
lars that 80 to foreign companies. It was
organized by our own citizens, and at
once took a strong position in business
circles. The lanes Of our hes; business
men, working men and professional men
are found among ills patrons. Its busi.
ness affairs, conducted by an experienced
board OF directors, have been managed
IN a conservative hut energetic manner.
1t is solidly intrenohed in our business
nomenclature and needs no votes OF
confidence in this city, where it is so
well known. Having liked itself firmly
at home, 1t now proposes to branch out
over the State and give our citizens the
full benefit ofits excellen. work.
The Association is now issuing five
distinct policies to meet a varied public
demand. The last one is known as the
Relief Certificate and is intended for
special use on railroads aud among mill
operatives. The past month has been
devoted by the Secretary and Medical
Officer OF the Association to canvassing
the employees Of the Ohio River Rail-
read in behalf Of this policy. Reipg
liberal in its provisions, reasonable in
its cost and giving indemnity for every
species OF disability with a rating 10

did not take long for the E;en TO zee its

Last night the usual Services we're

TIE PRICE OF GRUB WENT Ut,
Consequently tho Hotel. aud lIonrdins

C,pstauoniiy thu Hotel. nud lIonrdins
Houses Increase Prices.
The notice has gone forth that those
hotels which have been charging sos n
month for table board will hereafter
charge $50. while those which oil along
charged so will now charge $50. Most
OF the boarding houscS will do likewise,
while restaurants which have heretofore
sold meals at % cents will shortly raise
to so cents, and weekly board In proper.
ton. Iligher-priced eating houses will
doub,less raise their figures also.
This Is due to the unusually high
prices OF those things which enter into
q bill OF fare. Fruits are scarce and
coslly. Vegetables, with II few excep.
tions, are higher than they have been
for years. Batter and eggs have been
way up all summer. In this Mornings
paper the milk dealers serve notice that
the price Of the lacteal fluid goes from .
to S cents q quart, owing to tho high
price Of feed anu the poor pSsturage..
Tomatoes have ruled n little high.
Potatoes keep up unusually trniy:
Sweet potatoes have shown no signs oil
descending to the prices that rulld in
other years. Cabbage aloGe is abundant
here, but 1t is go scarce elsewhere that
the demand for shipment is SIRE to put
the price up here late in the season.
Corn has sold about as in other years
Melons are cheap as ever, and much
better ,hau usual, but they do not affect
the cos, OF living n great deal anyhow.
Grnpfs md plums are above the reach
Of the average housekeeper. Pears like
wise are scarce. Meats were recently
put up by the butchers, and when they
think buyers will stand another rise
they will 90 UP again.
Taken all III all, q dollar has not two.
thirds the purchasing power on market
day that It had a year ago, aud with
this, many staples, especially -four, are
also high.
