1T WILL OPEN TO-DAY.
The Annual State Fair Ready to
Start this Morning.
WILL Be THE BIGGEST SHOW YET.
The Stock and other Exhibits largely
on the Ground---Aflne Promise as to
the weatherfor the first pay.--Noth.
ing but Rain can Interfere with its
Complete Success.


The eleventh annual exhibition OF
the West Virginia Exposition and State
Fair Association will open to-day on
the grounds OF the Association on the
south end of Wheeling Island. There
has never been State Fair in the his
tory of the Association which would
compare with 1t in magnitude of the ex-
hibits of rare andattractive features. By
Saturday evening there were considera-
bly, over 200 fowls in the poultry de-
partment, the sheep pens, stock pens
andhorse stalls were fairly well filled,
machinery hall was being stocked up
and the fruit and flowers already made
fine show. The main building over
flowed several days ago and Temporal
ry annex was fitted up in the space
between the wings next to Fakir's
Grove.
Although additional stalls have been
built and many class horses and stock
turned away for lack OF room, 1t was
necessary Saturday to rent stabling on
the Island near the grounds to accom-
modate the horses and cattle. Fifteen
cars came from the Washington fair
alone. Yesterday all day stock Of all
kinds, as well us other exhibits were ar
irving constantly, and the outlook is
that the fakirs and lunch stand people,
not by any means an unattractive feat
ure, will be more numerous than ever.
This is always sign OF successful fair.
These fakiFs are Hnfailing judges OF the
success OF fair, by hearing people at
other fairs and gatherings talk, and
when u great many OF them apply for
space it is sure indication that the at
tendance will be large.
Saturday evening the entries closed
in the ladies' and children's and art de.
partments, and this morning they will
close in the horticultural department.
Every department is full to overflow
ing.
The decoration of the main building
lis complete and is very tasteful. Sew
erai new ideas have been introduced.
The exhibits in this building are many
of them novel and beyond any OF
former years in style and elegance.
Mclaughlin d 90. have secured the
exclusive privilege OF selling pools for
the association. There are lots OF book
makers in town, and many OF the peo-
pie who follow the horses around the
circuit have already arrived. They are
well dressed, indicating that they have
been hitting it right SO far this season.
Thewhole fair depends on the weather,
which has been bad for several days
past, but last night all the signs we're
encouraging. The sun set red and
bright, and at IL o'clock the stars were
all shining. 1t is probable that the
weather will be fair all week.
The races do not begin until to.mor-
row. There will also be balloon as.
cension tomorrow. All the races will
be fine. The opening day is the best
to inspect the other displays.

Rouslng Meeting Inst Night-staying Pow
orr of the Reformed.

erB of the Reformed.
Yesterdays meeting at Evangelistic
Hall was held in a crowded house. No
services have been held during the
month of August, and the friends of
the good work OF Mr.. Sawyer were out
in full force. Some familiar faces We're
there, and it was gratifying to see men
who are now in the second year OF their
probation and have become worthy
citizens by their efforts TO reclaim
themselves from bad habits.
Professor and Mrs. Gertrude McClel-
land and Mr.. Il. II. Parker conducted
the song and praise service. DIR. Hattie
b. Jones delivered an address on the
international Sabbath school lesson Of
the day. Mrs. Trimble also gave warm
talk, which held the audience.
Mr.. @. w. Sawyer talked on "Soul
winning and personal effort TO win peo-
pie to the path of right conduct"
After the regular meeting supple
Elemental meeting was held, at which
about fiftyremained. Fifteen new cases
stood up for prayer and desired aid in
their resolve 70 lead better life.
The work conducted by MIR. Saw
yer has been OF incalculable benefit
to the citizens of Wheeling. Many men
have been led by his efforts to become
better men. Some who lost their posi-
tons on account Of drink, reformed
and secured again their former posi-
tons and are men OF whom their fami-
lies are now proud.
A movement is on foot to secure bet
ter quarters, and it is probable that q
hall capable Of holding q thousand peo-
pie will be gotten after awhile. The
next meeting will be held Tuesday
night.

"The Half Has Not Been Told Me-" Queen
sheba Might Well Say.
The memorable expression OF the
Queen sheba on viewing the pomp
and glories of King solomon's court,
can with verify be used in speaking Of
the transcendent splendors of the gorge
GUS biblical spectacle, Solomon, his
Temple, and the Queen Of sheba, which
the management of the Robinson show
produce this year on scale OF uneS-
ampled magnitude and splendor. Taken
from the grandest scenes OF the patri-
archal era, it can not only interest the
biblical scholar, but the moral, the cul-
tured and the refined, seeking after in
tellectual and mind-improving enter
tainment, will find in this an exhibition
well worthy their attention. Yet this
desirable augmentation is but one of
the multitude Of attractions to which
the Robinson show invites the patron
nge Of the public. Their circus has long
been characterized as the most inviting
in the general excellence and proficiency
OF its ring performances OF any travel
ing,while their menagerie is large and
comprehensive. and includes living
specimens OF the rarest beasts, birds,
reptiles and amphibia. Their Roman
hippodrome is feature that carries the
spectator back TO imperial C@sar's days.

A Trivial Accident on the Elm Grove
Railroad.
Yesterday afternoon when the 4
o'clock train on the Elm Grove road was
at point just beyond Jacob street
there was sudden Stacking of speed, a
kissing sound, then water few all over
the street and cloud ofwhite steam
arose, which literally filed the street
from house to house and rose far toward
the sky. 1t attracted hundreds Of peo-
pie in an incredibly short time. Seen
from ohapline and Market streets it
looked as II a terrible accident had oc-
Cured. The train ran probably fifty feet
and came to o dead stop. Another
motor was run out from the station and
it was found that a plug in the boiler
had blown out, letting the water food
the FIRE box and put out the IRE. The
train was pulled back, and sent east
ward again about a half hour late.

FOR A PUBLIC PARK
Proposition Submitted for Pro-
curing Site for a Place of
Recreation
A Driveway Around Beautiful
Lake Padden Receives Fa-
vorable Consideration
Society Is Again in the Midst
of Lawn Tennis
Battle

The movement for city park is assum-
Ing definite shape and 1t is extremely
probable that before long some action will
be taken in the matter. The necessity OF
public park was never better illustrated
than last Monday when the residents OF
New Westminster visited the city.
There are several propositions for sup
plying this deficiency, one OF which is the
making OF driveway around Lake Pad
den. An almost level grade could be
found around the lake, and the roadway
could be lined with shade trees and beau
tilted In dozen different ways. The road
would serve another important object
that OF keeping the waters OF Lake Pad
den free from impurities. At present
there Is nothing TO prevent the surface
water around the lake from flowing into
It, but II road was constructed around
IT, properly dltched, this seepage would
be carried beyond the outlet OF the lake.
A large number OF persons visit Lake
Whatcom for the simple reason that a fine
driveway is provided from the Bay TO the
edge Of the lake. II the road was i'm
proved from the city limits 10
Lake Padden the number OF persons
visiting the beautiful sheet Of water will
be largely Increased. The surroundings
OF Lake Paddon are every bit as beauti-
iul, from a scenic point Of view, as any
sheet Of water in the state.
Several gentlemen owning tract OF
land near the head Of the lake, have Of
fered to subscribe $500 toward the pro-
position and almost everyone owning
property In that vicinity should be will
ing to contribute literally TO an enter
prise that will not only add to the at
tractiveness Of Fairhaven as a place OF
residence, but enhance the value OF their

LED A FAST LIFE
Cornelius A. King 100000 Short in His
Accounts

PATTERSON, N. j., May 26-Cornelius
A. King, until recently bookkeeper and
cashier in the New York Office Of Hinch-
clIffe Brothers, brewers, OF this city, is
alleged to be a defaulter to the amount Of
10000. King was first suspected about
four weeks ago, when the firm began an
investigation. He then disappeared. 1t
was at first supposed that hIs shortage
was small, but examination OF the books,
IL Is alleged, shows that he has appropri-
ated to his own use, during several years,
$4,000. His method was rot TO credit on
the books sums which customers paid on
account OF their beer bills.
The firm, after Kings disappearance,
heard from him by his writing TO one OF
the employees OF New York city. King
expressed sorrow for what he had done,
and offered to help the firm TO stralghten
up his accounts. He had been with Hinch-
cliffe Brothers for about four years, and
his peculations began soon after he entered
their employ. He was regarded as trus-
worthy man, and was well known In Pat
terson, being at one time the tax assessor
Of the city. IL is believed that his down
fall is due to his leading a fast life. lie
Is a married man, and his family reside
in New York.

TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT
Fairhaven's 400" Quarreling Over
Tennis Club Organization

fAIRUANEN, MAY 20.
EDITOR HERALD-The attack made in
your paper Of yesterday upon the editor of
the Bee seems TO me, member OF the
Fairhaven club, entirely unmerited.
While one or two persons had spoken OF
getting up tennis club before the agIta-
tiOn OF the subject by the editor OF the
Bee, yet no sort OF movement had been
started with that object until he adyo-
Gated IL In the paper and personally can
vassed both New Whatcom and Fair
haven, and | think IL very doubtful IL
club would have been formed without his
disinterested work The invitations 10
the first meeting called 10 consider the
subject at Thistle's hall were issued by
the Bee, and there seems to me nothing
improper In It's editor claiming for his
paper the chief credit. Honor 10 whom
honor Is due.
| am intimately acquainted with the
editor OF the Bee, and ! feel sure that
what Is said by your correspondent OF the
Opposition fomented and encouraged
more by the editor OF the Bee than any
other one Individual" Is sheer nonsense
without the slightest foundation In fact.
/ think your correspondents statement
that the "Fairhaven club was proposed
long before the Bee was In existence" Is
untrue.
When he speaks OF the central club as
tne 'Jfescent cluD OF NhhtcOm, IL is
difficult 10 escape the conclusion that he
IS wilfully perverting the facts. As
matter OF fact, the officers OF the Crescent
club are equally divided between the two
cities. Mr.. Jones, OF New Whatcom, Is
president; Mr.. c. II. Warner, OF Fair
haven, vice-president; City Clerk Egan.

executive committee is made up of Messrs.

This is the same grade as Is produced
by the mines In California. which, owing
TO the grade that can be imported from
Asia Minor (from whence comes the
highest grade ore produced In the world
averaging from so TO So per cent. chronic
oxide) has no market, except when the
imported ore runs short; then the lower
grade ore OF California Is used.
There Is a ready market for an ore
which carries over 30 per cent. chronic
oxide. A small amount Is used In the
manufacture Of chrome steel, which when
tempered, Is great deal harder than any
other steel manufactured. Nearly the
entire product OF chrome iron Is made
into bichromate OF potash. This Is used
in all color works In making chrome
green, lead chrome, etc. Bichromate oil
potash Is also used as an OXidiZlng agent
In linseed oil works and by dYers and cal
leo printers. The principal works in this
country for the manufacture OF the bi-
chromate, are In baltimore, where nine
tenths of the ore imported Is worked.
The ore Is usually found In pockets and
varies 10 and Is per cent. AS only one
sample Of the ore found on the Skagit has
vet been tested, and as that lacks but 4 or
per cent. Of being high grade ore, II
may be found on further development and
testing that the mine will prove more val
liable than those OF California. IL may
be that the Skagit ore can easily compete
in the home market with the imported
article
