The New Law That Now Reigns i'll Ton
serial Emporiums.

From now on you cannot get a shave
nights This is now the inexorable
law of the tonsoral artists of this city.
a petition to that effect, emanating
from the proprietors, was sent out and
signed by all but three or four master
BARRIERS. The hours heretofore have
been from 6:30 in the morning until 10
O'Clock at night. For the benefit OF the
journeymen, as well as for themselves,
the earlier hour Of closing has been
agreed to. There are from thirty-two
to thirty-three proprietorS in the city,
twenty-eight or twenty-nine OF whom
ahve signed the agreement. There are
from fifteen to eighteen journeymcn
BARRIERS and about thirty apprentices.
''The hours were too long," said a
barber to a REGISTER reporter the other
evening, land we can make just as
much money by closing at $50 as by re-
naming open until 10 o'clock. The
long hours were hard on the journey
men as well as the proprietorS and that
is the reason we concluded to make the
change"
For instance jour makes often as
much as S25 and $50 per month besides
his room and boarding. Some, however,
prefer to be paid on percentage, but uh-
less they are very fast they cannot make
any more money in this way. The
average journeyman can shave from
fifty to sixty men, but many cannot get
over forty. About the best that can be
done is Seventy-fiye to eight, but this
is very infrequent. An average of fifty
five or sixty is very good work. But
it is often the case that custom is not
steady enough to do that much, and in
some shops, much less.
son special occasions and holidays
will the barber shops be opened after
$40 p. M"
"Oh, yes. We will run as we always
have on special days when business is
booming"

teacher of Wayne county, met with Il
sad death last Sunday on the \. & W.
K. r. He was riding on hand car
which was loaded with girderS for the
bridge at John Plymale'S crossing,
above Dunleith 2. o. When the car
reached the bridge it jumped the track,
knocking the heavy timberS and the un-
fortunate man off the car. One Of the
girderS struck Mr.. Artrip on the head
knocking him into the river and killing
him instantly. His head was mashed
into jelly and one of his arms broken.
He leaves wife and one child.
A horrible and fatal accident oc-
Cured Wednesday night at the works
OF 2. j. Millett, Norfolk and Western
contractor, in Wayne county. An ltal-
ian cart driver was Ell route to the STA
BILE when his cart overturned, throwing
the occupant violently TO the ground.
The mans head struck stone, dashing
out his brains. The dead mans com
rades paid no attention to the body, al
lowing il to remain as it had fallen un-
til daylight. During the night drove
of hogs attacked the remains, mutllat-
ing them in fearful manner. The
head was eaten from the BODY.
A distressing accident occurred on
the left fork of Twelve Pole, some
twelve miles above Wayne Court House,
one day last week. Mrs. Tom Clark
was boiling kettle of soap on fire
place. She attempted to take the ket-
tie off the fire, but it was too heavy for
her to manage. 1t upturned and the
boiling soap run out on her and two

rible manner. The child died Friday,
and at last advices Mrs. Clark was not
expected to live. The flesh from near
the waist down was literally charred to
the bone.

longer days, the people were later in
coming together, but at o'clock every
available seat was taken and standing
room at the rear of the hall occupied.
The service was conducted by Mr.. Saw
yer, ably assisted by Mr.. Kasley, the
gospel cornetist. Miss Ina Reed at the
organ rendered excellent service.
Mr.. Clemence C. Smith, of the Second
Presbyterian Church is warmly inter-
ested in the welfare of the unevangel-
lied element, and is rendering very etfec-
tive service in the Sundays work. The
Colloquial class in the afternoon is in
charge of Mr.. Smith and is rapidly in
creasng and good interest manifested.
Mr.. Sawyer conducted last nights
meeting, which was crowded with eager
listeners, and after an eight months
steady and constant campaign shows
the interest to be still increasing. Mr..
Frank Coats, one Of the subjects of this
work. made pleasing talk, which was
practical and effective in substance, tell
ing how prosperously he had advanced
since he began a new life last October.
The music in this good work is win
ing feature, and is attracting much at
tention. Mrs. Annie Wilson is giving
an evening occasionally in the line of
solo singing, using some Of the best
selections from the Moody and Sankey
book. Her gift in this way is very help
full, and makes quick inroadS to the
hearts OF many.

DEATH OF OLIVER T WILDE.
ae Passed Away Suddenly in Cincin-
natl.

ae Passed Away Suddenly in Cincin-
natl.
A message of sorrow came To this city
Yesterday morning in a telegram from
Cincinnati announcing the death OF
Oliver II. Wilde, Of this city, son OF
JoSeph l.. Wilde, the retired stationery
merchant on Jacob street. The intellI-
cence was a shock TO large circle OF
friends, as few were aware that he was
ailing, as he had been sick but short
thine, and for awhile it was no easy
matter for his friends to become recon-
ciled TO the situation.
His death took place at the st. James
Hotel early yesterday morning, and I'M
mediately upon the receipt OF the tele-
gram in this city, Hon. John o. Pen
dleton and Frank JepSon wired 10 Mrs.
Wilde that if it was her wish they would
come on, and received reply that she
would have left Cincinnati for Wheeling
before they could arrive.
The cause of Mr.. Wilde'S death was
typhoid fever. The deceased was born
i'm Wheeling, although for some years
he has been at home only at intervals,
having been on the road for various
commercial houses. At one time he
was connected with the hardware firm
Of OFT, Hall & Co., of this city, later
with a firm in PittSburg, and at the
time of his death was travelling agent of
the well-knOwn Supple Hardware House
OF Philadelphia. He possessed unusual
requirements ia this direction, and his
happy disposition. uniform courtesy and
business tact made him eminently sue
ceSSful. He was popular with all, but
his death struck with peculiar force
here NJ work where he was generally
known and wei-hked. Mr.. Wilde was
an ardent Democrat, and took a great
interest, and occasionally hand,
in political conflicts. Among secret
organizations he was affiliated with the
MaSonS. His age was 81 years. He
leaves wife aud one daughter, eleven
years Of age, also one brother, Edwin
Wilde, bOOkkeeper at NELL K Filing
hams, and two sisters, Misses Mary and
Il. l.. Wilde.
Mrs. Wilde left Cincinnati last night
with the remains OF her husband at
o'clock, and arrived here at $50 this
morning. The date Of the funeral had
not been determined upon last night.
