ANrr RRInGE PROPOsED.

A citizen of Bellaire furnishes the
REGISTER most important communities
ton, which appears elsewhere. Hevery
pertinently asks why cannot Bellaira
and this city be connected by magnifi-
cent bridge, for railroad, carriage apd
foot service, at a point near the south
end of the corporation line? He claims,
and rightly, too, that it would virtually
make the TWO cities one; that there
would be more business over it from the
start than all the bridges between
Wheeling. Bridgeport, Etnaville and
Martins Ferry combined, and hence 1t
would pay nicely on the investment at
the start.
There is a population Of over $4,000
in the thriving city of Bellaire; 1t has
large manufacturing and commercial
interests: it is the eastern terminus Of
the ReUaire. GAINESVILLE and Cincinnati
narrow guage railway, which drains a
large part of Monroe and Noble coun-
ties: besides it is the supply depot for a
large section of the southern part Of
Belmont county.
A magnificent structure could be
built, say from the upper end of Gravel
Hin and across the head OF Bogg's ISL
and at cost of PROBABLY enc half OF
what the Union bridge at Martins
Ferry cost. There would be no ap-
proaches TO build Oh the west side, while
the cost Of the foundations for part of
the piers would be very low compare
lively.
This is the day Of progress. A city
cannot lag behind and be prosperous
any more than the manufacturer,
merchant or mechanic; all must be up
and doing il they expect to keep mp
with the procession. The building of
a suitable bridge to span the river at
the point named would as the writer of
the communication says, join the two
cities in commercial union, and vir-
tually make Wheeling a city of $4,000
or $4,000 population. 1t would not be
all for Wbeeling's benefit either. The
acres Of eligible property for building
sites on Gravel Hill and surrounding
territory would increase the wealth and
population Of Bellaire materially.
There is ample capital right here and
in BeIaire TO carry the project through
successfully. Surely there ought to be
sufficient enterprise and shrewdness
among our pepIe to take hold of it. If
they don't, and that soon, they will
have lost their opportunity, for out
side capital is bound 20 snap at it, and
that ere long.

The Main street stone bridge and our
electric light plant will be formally
opened almost simultaneously about a
month hence. There should be a joint
celebration Of these events.
The occasion should be made a gala
day by the people Of Wheeling.
1t will be Of no ordinary importance.
The interest in it will certainly extend
not only beyond the city, but outside Of
the nation.
The Main street stone bridge will
rank among the first structures Of its
kind in the world, or in history.
That grand arch is marvel Of engineer
ing skill, and will attract widespread
attention.
Our electric light plant will be prob
ably Of even more general interest than
the bridge, from the fact that it will
represent a pioneer movement Of mu-
picipal ownership and operation OF
electric lighting, and therefore Of vast
interest to every city in the United
States and elsewhere. In addition TO
this il will doubtless be the finest cleo
trio lighting plant inexistenee.
So there will be no trouble at all in
securing all the outside encouragement

we may need in making the occasion a
gala day Of large proportions. Such an
event would need out slight advertising
to attract large attendance of distin-
guished men from all parts Of the coun-
try, aud. also, a general attendance that
would tax our ca pacity for entertaining,
great as it is.
1t would be the easiest thing in the
world to top it of with parade OF the
fire department, the State militia and
other organizations that would be will
ing to turn out, making the celebration
still more attractive.
An evening parade OF such character
by the light Of the new electric street
lamps would be a novelty.
And we have no lack Of able public
speakers.
Such a celebration would be the best
advertisement Wheeling could give her
self
The Chamber Of Commerce, or COM
mittee of representative citizens should
take hold Of the matter. Wheeling
business men will recognize the advant-
ages and substantial benefits that will
accrue to them, and it will be no trouble
to raise a fund TO defray the slight ex-
penSe. The railroads doubtless will
offer reduced rates, which would present
g splendid opportunity for the people
along the line of the Wheeling and
Lake Erie to visit and inspect the new
center Of trade that has been opened up
to them.
1t will be easy to make the thing a
ego"
Let US start to do so at once!

hundred men have been employed in

House Worlds Fair bill failed TO pass
that body to-day by two votes. a mo-

attached a rider which appropriateS
fifty thousand dollars for Virginia ex-

bin fixes the appropriation at thirty

There has been a very brisk demand
for bran new one and five dollar bills OF
late, said a well known banker to the
Tattler. Some fellow with an inventive
turn has produced a toy he calls mon
ey maker. The little machine appar-
emily turns out money OF any denomina-
ton by simply turning crank. The
money maker is constructed on the
principle Of a clothes wringer. A piece
of paper the size of regulation bills is
run into the rolls and comes out on the
other side Tor appears toy bran new
bill Of the denomination wanted by the
operator. The deception is good as the
chap with 4 money maker has beenhvv-
ing considerable enjoyment with the
toy.

Pat Rooney appears in Bellaire on
next Monday night and an old friend OF
the comedian tells the following little
anecdote of Pat: Rooney is undoubted-
~ d very funny man on the stage, but
what he don't know about other things
than struttng and singing comical
songs would make an awful big book.
His knowledge of geography and Of the
inhabitants OF other countries is one OF
the things that would help fill the vol
ume. Not a great while ago Pat, hay-
ing conceived the idea that he had
about captured the entire continent OF
America by his genius, Alexander-like
began to sigh Cor other worlds to con-
vuer. He hit upon Australia as place
he would like TO bring TO his feet, and
he suggested TO his manager the scheme
OF going there with the show.
"Why, Mr.. Rooney" said the mana
ger, "we certainly don't want to go
there; there are nothing but kangaroos
in Australia"
"Kangaroos, is it," said Pat, 'and
what of that, sure? Faith, and amt a
kangaroo's money as good as any
body's?"
