will be offered on Thursday, August %.
The same low rates will be provided as
heretofore from Pittsburgh, Wheeling,

picturesqueness and variety OF its
scenery.
Tickets will be valid for return jour-
ney for twelve DAYS from day OF sale,
also to stop of at Philadelphia for the
night Of August 25, and will be good on
all regular trains. 0n-return journey
they will be good to stop off at wash
ington, thus affording an opportunity
to visit the numerous public buildings,
which are open tovisitors FREQ OF charge,
and to take trip down the Potomac to
Mt. Vernon, the tomb Of Washington,
40 we'll as to visit other places Of inter
est in and near Washington.
Trains leave Wheeling at 5:15 a. m.
and p. M, and for these two trains
only will tickets be sold. Pullman Sleep
ing cars on evening train. Round trio
rate $40. Correspoudingly low rates
from other stations.

In review Of the nominations on
tho North Dakota Republican ticket,
tho Hillsboro Banner has the following:
Nominee for superintendent OF pub
lie instruction, is the youngest man on
the ticket, but possesses marked abil-
ity. Ho was born in West Virginia in
1861. Received his education in the
Wheeling high school and university
OF that state. Came to North Dakota
in 1884, aud located ut LaNlouro, whore
he has ably served several terms as
county superintendent OF schools. He
10 regarded as one OF tho best educators
Of the state, and his popularity 10 an
assurance Of his political strength. He
was a candidate Tor superintendent Of
public instruction two years ago, and
in the midst Of the roll call grow eX-
cited and before tho result was an
nounced withdrew his name, and ct the
same time moved to make the nomind:
ton for Ogden, his opponent, unani-
nous. Had hc remained quiet two
minutes longer he would havo been the
elected nominee himself. This time
Mr.. Devine held his scat until the re-
suit was announced. Although an In
telligent gentleman, he is IN all-round

Self Praise.

Self praise is no recommendation, but
there are times when one must permit
a person to tell the truth about himself.
When what he says is supported by the
testimony OF others no reasonable man
will doubt his word. Now, to say that
A11cocK's Porous PLAsrERs are the only
genuine and reliable porous plasters
made is not self praise in the slightest
degree. They have stood the test for
over thirty years, and in proof Of their
merits it is only necessary to call atten.
ton to the cures they have effected and
TO the voluntary testimonials OF those
who have used them.
Beware Of limitations, and do not be
deceived by misrepresentation. Ask
for AL1cocK's, and lot no solicitation or
explanation induce you to accept a sub
stitute.

TIRE SOCIAL PROBLEM.
The Subject of an Entertaining
Discourse by Dr.. Banks
ON THE CAMP GROUNDSLAS1 NIGHT.
AsooI Audience Witnesses his Fine
stereoptlcon Views and Hears his
Earnest aud Sensible Talk---ThO
.sweatins system" in Boston.--Rc-
lat,on of City Life to tho Nation.

Tho illustrated lecture. "Tho Social
Problem" giyOn by DR.. Louis q. Banks
in the auditorium at MoundsvIlle last
night was attended by an appreciatiyc
audience, composed OF campers, Wheel
inc and Moundsville people. Though
the large building was not filed still 1t
was large audience that greeted tho
lecturer at eight o'clock. The speaker
introduced hia subject by reference
to the rapid growth in late years OF tho
great cities. London was 1,G0o years
old before it became as largo as Boston
now is, and 1000 years old before 1t be-
cano as largo as Now York's present
size. -, ,.,.. -.
the centcrs OF powor, and politically
thoy rule the states in which they arc
situated, and reach out even to control
tho federal government. Witness the
case Of Now York to-day. II these cities
become corrupt, the governments oil
tho states and country must become
The lecturer stated that many Of tho
pictures woro flash light photographs
taken from real life.
Tho audience sang from the canvas,
INV Country, IT'S OF Thee"
Tho first pictures shown gave views
OF tho principal streets, parks and
buildings o: Boston and Bunker Hill
monument. Very impressive wore tho
views Of the Italian quarter OF Boston,
added to the DOCTORS vivid description
OF tho manner in which human beings
are huddlcd together rs animals in
stables. sometimes two families living
in a room IS by 10 feet, or less, tho
stores OF these fruit wonders bong
placed in the same rooms. In these
tenement houses, views OF which were
shown, is carried on tho noted Sweat
ing System" in manufacturing clothes.
Clothes made amid tho disease and
death Of these crowded, filthy quarters,
carry diseases OF these people to all
parts Of tho country. The rooms de-
voted to this sweating system," the
lecturer says, are, from the heat and
stencil Of the rooms, unfit for human
beings to live in; and the wages OF
these workers aro forced down to the
lowest point, not enough to support
life. .
Many views of tho rooms of many Of
the women who do home work for the
sweat system" wero shown, the women
earning only about s. per week to sup
port families OF three to five.
The views gave vivid idea Of the
life Of tho poor in large cities, and the
Doctors description Of the evils exist
ing among these people, and the cure
for these evils, were both interesting
and instructive.
At the close OF the lecture number
OF fine views of wild animals were
shown; then followed large number OF
views, beautiful, humorous and other
wise. The boys and girls were de-
lighted.
An illustrated lecture on prohibition
is to be given by DR.. Banks in the
Opera House, Moundsville, this evening.

A Young Man n. aiar,la's Ferry Cut ap IL
Hrlek Machine.


a HrleIs Machine.
Ross Plckens, IN excellent young man
Of Martins Ferry, had his left leg terri
bly, crushed by being caught in the
rolls at the Belmont brick and tile
works yesterday. 1t required three
quarters of an hour to extricate him, it
being necessary to take the machinery
apart.
Mr.. Pickens, who is the engineer, went
up on an overhead tramway from
which the clay Is dumped, the car not
working right. He started to 60 away
and in turning stopped onto tho clay
and went through tho trap. Tho toe. OF
lis shoe passed into the rolls, drawing
tho left foot in, then the leg to joint
iuat below the knee, cutting and crush,
Ing the shoe, foot and log in fearful
manner. Mr.. Pickons caught hold Of
the hatchway with each arm and called
to Mr.. James Miskell, who attends to
tho machine, to stop tho machinery.
This was done US quickly as possible
and together with Mr.. Pickens' own
efforts prevented him from being
ground to pieces. At first an effort was
made to got tho unfortunate man out
without taking the machinery apart,
but this was found impossible aud tho
men were obliged to take apart the
machinery in order to extricate him
and this required forty-Gye minutes.
While this was being done water was
poured on Mr.. Pickens and whiskey
was given him to keep him from faint
ing, The shock was terrible, but
strange TO say Pickens did not utter q
groan, wac conscious during the three.
quarters OF an hour he was between
ther and stood this awful experie nee
like an cd soldier.
One Of tho rolls is smooth and runs
very slowly whilo tho other is filed
with knives running lengthwisc and
runs Mt the ratio OF nine hundred Fevo-
lutiong per minute.
Physicians wcro summoned and the
injured man was conveyed to his home
buck OF town in a spring waGon by
Howard Hipkins and Jomaa Miskel,
where tho leg was alnputated close up
to tho knee by Drs. Hobcnsack, Hervey
and BIackford.
Mr.. Pickens is about twenty-scven
years old, married and has q host OF
friends, who arc glad the accident was
no worsc. It is miraculous that he was
not ground to pieces.
Tho works shut down for the day
after tho accident occurred.
