BELLAIRE.

NJ. F. Tanning, the temperance ora
tor, addressed a good sized audience at
public square on Saturday. Col. G. L..
Poorman took exceptions TO some Of the
assertions made by the speaker, and
after the meeting the gentlemen got
into an animated conversation on Union
street. When last seen they were in a
hotel searching the pages of some books
TO settle difference OF opinion.
Rev. T. W. Lane preached his fare
well sermon in the First NJ. E. Church
Yesterday morning. In the afternoon
he preached for the Red Men and the
organization turned out in body.
Window Glass Workers heard that
the trouble in their branch had been
settled Saturday and were glad. The
story is not substantiated.
School teachers will be examined at
City Building on the Goth.
Several bottle blowers who went to
Sharpsburg, Pa, TO work will return to
this city, as the factory where they
we're employed has shut down. The
plant has been using gas, but will be
arranged for coal as it can be obtained
cheaper.
The Marshal had lively chase for q

rae BIG Sale QUESTION:.

Captain DAUBAssOFF, OF the Russian
Navy, is one of the few living Euro
peans who have had actual experience
in naval warfare. Tn the Russo-Turkish
war, with the aid of torpedo boats, he
surrounded and blew up several Turk
ish monitors. On his way across the
continent last week he expressed to a
reporter his disbelief in the effective
ness OF large and heavily-armored ships
lie gave utterance to the opinion that
projectiles will always be superior to the
best defensive armor, and that big ships
are ever at the mercy Of torpedo boats
For coast defense the torpedo boat and
gun boat carrying few heavy guns he
thought superior to the great battle
ships now building.
1t is worth remembering that Admiral
FARRAGUT did not believe in armored
ships, and that during his last visit 20
England be expressed the opinion that
he would live to see the armor stripped
off from ships just as the coat of mail
had been stripped of from the soldier.
Captain DAUBAssoFF and Admiral
FARRAGUT are two sailors who have
been victorious over armored ships, and
it is not strange that they have little
faith in them.

GIVE THEM THEIR MONEY

1t would be a misfortune If Ohio
County refused to pay the last 500, 900
to the Wheeling Bridge and Terminal
Company. The terms of the contract
have been fulfilled in every particular,
unless it be possibly some technicallty,
and the money certainly should be paid
over.
1t must be borne in mind that more
work than has 80 N-~an done, vasU as
that is, yet remains to be done
and that it is chiefly being paid
for by the Eastern capitalists who are
backing the whole enterprise. Do not
let us forget that extensions are yet to
be made to the Benwood and city iron
furnaces. 1t is among these from whom
the bulk of the,buSiness for the Terminal
Co. is to come. If any delay arises in
the payment of the residue of the
county's indebtedness the system is SER
iously crippled at the very beginning OF
its career. But this is not all.
Should the county refuse to pay its
full share it would very probably create
the impression among these Eastern
capitalists that we were not satisfied,
that we did not deem the enterprise of
sufficient Importance to warrant us in
paying our share of the expense, which
would possibly disgust them
with the whole thing, and
leave us with this magnificent enter
prise, which promises to place Wheeling
on trunk line incompleted. Such con
! dition would be nothing short Of public
! disaster.

Ex-9IINIsTER to Hayti FREDERICK
DOUGLASS appears to have forgotten
the troubles and blooodshed of the
black Republic and he has been ad-
dressing Sunday schools and churches.
In a recent speech in Baltimore he ac-
cused the colored man of shiftlessness.
The advice he gave them is OF quite
general interest: 1--WE were set free
merely to punish the rebels. No one
took any intareSt in Us after the eman-
cipation. We should get married, rear
children, love them. and secure home.
We don't want to so to Hayti." His
late experiences in Hayti certainly lend
a personal force to this last resolve.

Remarkable Coincidence.

A remarkable coincidence occurred in
this city yesterday. In Amsterdam,
Holland, there is family bearing the
name of Kinsberger, all the members OF
which have been musicians for genera
tionS. A member Of the family moved
to England forty-two years ago, and
two years ago one of his sons emigrat-
ed to America. Yesterday the respect
i've musical directors of the Little Ty-
coon and Broom-Maker Company. each
bearing the same name, Kinsberger,
were introduced to each other. After q
few explanations were made, it was dis
covered that they were cousins.

rHE BsIDGE BONDS QUESTION.

In another column will be found the
proclamation Of the election to be held
ON the Goth Of this month, on the Ques-
ton of passing the ordinance providing
for change of the rate of interest Of
the Main street bridge bonds. The
question to be settled is very simple and
ought 10 be settled unanimously.
Bonds to the amount Of SlOO,OOO were
issued to pay for the building Of the
bridge. The attempt was made to float
them at ~ per cent interest. The rate
was too low, particularly when investors
had their eyes upon the 6 per cent.
electric light bonds which are
to placed on the market. 0oly
$40. 500 Of the Al per cents have been
sold, and money must be had immedi-
ately to make further payments, which
are due the contractors. If the ~ per
cent bonds are changed TO per cent,
the whole amount will be taken up i'm
meiiately and there will be no further
difficulty The question is simply on
the adding Of - per cent to the rate OF
interest Of tie present bonds. If the
ordinance is defeated the situation will
remain as it is, and the city will be left
with 500, 500 Of unsaleable bonds on
its hands.
The ordinance, beyond question,
should be passed.

THE public would like to know who is
at the bottom OF the objection to paying
the last 500, 600 to the Wheeling Bridge
and Terminal Company. The side de-
handing the payment, which includes
the public generally, is open and above
board. Why don't the directors come
out and show themselves?

MANUAL TRAINING IN PIrTsBURG'

/ MANUAL TRAINING IN PlrTSbOh0'
The Pittsburg Dispatch says OF man
ual training that "the object Of an In
dustrlal course is to educate the hands
so that they may be made of service to
their owners" Manual training not
only educates the hands, but the eye
and the perceptive faculties generally.
1t educates the whole scholar not his
head alone.
Commenting on the wonderful sue
cess Of the manual training department
which has recently been added to the
public school system of Pittsburg, the
Dispatch says:
The success attendent upon the estab-
lishment Of the industrial course in the
public school system has been demon
strated by the manner in which the classes
formed have been filed with pupils. Not
only are they crowded, but there are many
pupils enrolled, awaiting their chance to
take the course. and il is apparent that
TO accommodate all who desire 10 fit them
selves for craftsmanship other classes will
soon have to be organized.
This is but one more testimonial to
the unreasonable value of the system.
How long must Wheeling remain at the
rear OF the educational procession be.
fore our Board of Education awakens to
the situation? Manual training is max
ing more rapid progress than ever in
public favor. It's success is immediate
wherever it is adopted, and no city is
more in need of it than Wheeling.

Lenten Thoughts.

DEAR FRIENDS:
What should Mid-Lent letter
be if not a message to- hearts grown
tender by daily communion with
Him who spent these forty days
and forty nights in deeper humble
ness of spirit than we can ever
know? I have not all of sunshine
or all of shadow for you. There
is Just the blending which mellows
all human pictures however salts
flying. Our
HOUSE BEAUTIFUL
is growing, and bounteous hands
are now, as in all these twelve
months, showering upon us the
means of growth which should be
unto us a means of grace. The
brick annex is nearing completion.
A leading spirit in progress OF all
kinds asked me, "How much will
it cost to furnish Students Ward
in your building? There ought
to be some place like that for sick
boys far from home and mother"
Shall we not encourage the sug-
gestion? This is the season of the
year which has proved so trying to
southern boys, and numbers Of
them are sick now. Oh, for a light
sweet, pleasant room like that
where our last sick girl patient is
cared for; and how fervent her
commentator of the House Beau
tiful, where our uninterrupted young
nurses brighten the atmosphere of
sickness. Not alone do they cheer
these wards. Out into the homes
where disease and death come they
bear whatever of comfort may be
theirs to give. So faithfully has
Miss Westcott fulfilled her mission
for a dear young girl this holy
season, that though not mighty to
save, yet the bereaved parents were
unwilling to let her 60 for days
afterwards.
AMONG THE POOR
there was one suffering from neg
lect and wretchedness, whose
needs were SO soothed by Miss
Larkin that her daily visit was
hailed with inexpressible delight.
Several public entertainments
have interested the people in be-
half of our needed fund, and to
the question, care you going to
become self-sustaining?" we an
swer that we are. "The Rajah"
was played on the 9TH of Febru-
airy, by company OF our anna
teurs and netted 5000. The beau
tiful Art Loan Exhibit which
was conducted so cleverly and
amiably by Miss Nettie Mcdowell
and her assistants, yielded $340,
which Mr.. j. M. Duff kindly
made $3.50. In one particular
nook, beneath handsome por-
traits by distinguished artists, and
surrounded by curios and treas
ures from every land, the sweet,
bright spirit Of the enterprise es-
tablished John Scott, a delicate

poured in torrents, a message
came that he must hasten home,
his mother was i'll.
SHE STILL LIES PHOSPHATE
on a bed Of sickness, and the boy
himself is threatened with a vast
ing disease. But he does not for
get the sweet girl who was so
kind to him. Night after night
he has dreamed of her, with the
tenacity of trail organism and
a precocious mind. On Washing
toms birthday the boy read an
original sketch of the nations
hero, which did great credit to
the memory of his father, the
gallant officer, who sleeps in the
Lexington cemetery. So while
taking in money at the Art Loan
for the House Beautiful, the
sweet charity of helping Others
was not forgotten. And the
money came in. Mrs. r. K. Hunt
sent 1892; Mrs. Fitzhugh gave S.;
a friend sent SO; another friend
sent $l0O; Miss Sue Scott SIS; Mrs.
Katherine Reid gave $264, the
annual endowment fund for one
cot, Mr.. Will Pickett gave S25;
and
THUS THE WORK GOES ON.

and one box of cocaine. Mrs C.
f. Simonds, who has given SO
much from the very first, sent
one dozen cans of corn, ditto
peaches; ditto peas; one dozen
oranges, ditto apples, ditto banan-
as, also hominy, grits and candy.
Mrs. Ben Bruce sent old papers,
for which there are SO many uses.
Mrs. Warren, glass of jelly, old
papers, and two pounds of butter.
She is always big-hearted and
watching for chance to help.
Mrs. France has again sent some
of her delicious crisp white celery,
than which there is nothing more
refreshing. Miss Johns sent
parsley, a bit of green to vary
the winters bill of fare. Mrs.
Goodloe gave an overcoat for Joe
Preston, the little lame boy adopt
ed by the institution. Messrs.
Cassell & Price sent him two fan
mel shirts. Mrs. Dudley gave him
stockings. Joe's ambition, how
ever, was for a pair of "galluses,"
so he was gratifed in that line.

bound volume Of Harper's Month
ly. Mr.. S. f. Warren sent mac
caroni, cheese, and cucumber
pickles. E. j. Curley sent a cask
