What the Wellington Stove Work.
Have Done and Are Doing.

UNIV DVht sHa nv D'sass
About one year ago we commenced
the manufacture Of stoves in yelling
ton on a very small scale. At the
start we had but one pattern and
style, this being our twO-hOle monkey
stove.
We can say after one year Of trial
they have given entire satisfaction.
Encouraged with the success we met
with this stove, we decided to add
another size Of same, also three sizes
Of small cannon, two sizes of our home
oak and two OF home cook which so
far have proven to be as good as any
made in the east. All this we were
doing with the help Of one or two
men. Not satisfied with this we, on
the 1st Of May last decided to go into
the stove business in earnest and at
once increased our working force to
ten men making a daily output to six
or eight stoves by casting three times
week instead ofOne as before. Thus
we worked and racked up the CON-
pleted stoves for one month, to find
them and patterns on the morning OF
the 18th, lying in pile Of debris and
our works almost destroyed by the ter
rible storm Of the 9th. We did not
give up but went to work and at the
end of six weeks were running the
same as before which we have kept up
and added to, until now we have pat
terms for seven different styles not
mentioned before. An extra heavy
cannon for public schOOl-hOuses and
two styles Of wood heaters. We
started to run our works through the
year and in order to be able to do this
we offer extra inducements to the
cash buyer. Please, everybody in the
| county and city, come and see us and
get our cash prices before buying for
eign made stoves.
For the second year we will giveOur
plans as now contemplated. Wewish
to start up our works after
the holidays with another in
crease Of force and casting, every
working day turning out twelve to
fifteen stoves.
During the winter months we wish
to add to our stock Of patterns other
sizes of cooks, for both coal and wood,
also ranges and heating stoves.
We do feel that we ought to have
more encouragement from our bust
ness men as well as others. We as
well as those we employ buy our grOc-
cries, meats, dry goods, clothing, boots
and shoes, hardware, drugs land no
malt of our Wellington merchants
and do not send off for these things.
Why should you for your stoves?
Stop, consider and see if it is not &
your best interest to talk for and
patroniZe home manufactures that
YOU already have? How many of you
know what they are doing? You
have never been in our works and it
is only the next door to you. VIII
tell you where you can find us. Cor
ner Harvey and c streets, one block
east of Arlington corner.
All come and see us before Christ
mas and we will think it the best
Christmas present we have ever re-
ceiyed. We thank you for the many
past favOrs we have received from
you. W. d. MOORE & BRO,
PrOrrietOrS Wellington Stove Works.

Will Hurley Absent.
Daily Mail:

Daily Mall:
For several years it has been gener-
ally conceded that Will Hurley was
inclined to be somewhat spOrtive and
was also proud OF his muscular abili,
ties. 1t was also conceded but was
not so widely known, that Mr.. Hurry
was a member Of the Wellington foot
ball team and for some time had been
intending TO play in yesterdays game,
taking the position of left guard.
Yesterday when the game was called
Mr.. Hurley was not present. his posi-.
tion being filed by another. Natur.
ally, his absence occasioned consider.
able comment and various suggestions
as to the cause of his absence were ex.
haustively discussed. Diligent in.
Quiry brings to the surface his reasons
for being absent.
Will Hurley basely deserted a loving
wife Tuesday night and fled with a
disSOlute woman who has been a par
amour of his for some weeks. They
went east, presumably to Chicago.
His business interests were disposed
Of the night of his departure. Mrs.
Hurley is well nigh heartbroken and
is remaining in seclusiOn at the home
of her father-in-law, DR.. F. NJ. Hur-
ley, on North G street.
Hurley a year or two ago was a
member of the city's police force, be.
ing on duty during the night. His
disgraceful action brings down upon
his head the censure OF both enemies
and friends, while nothing but kindly
sympathy is being shown his unhappy
wife. The instituting Of divorce pro.
ceedings is being contemplated by
Mrs. Hurley.
LATER:-It is reported that Hurley
left the city alone.
