home. Every patient upon coming in
to this institution will get good,
clean, thorough washing, something
they do not always get at home, and an
other thing, patients in the hospital
skip the horde of doleful callers who
are continually coming around to houses
TO tell them of the awful consequences
of the disease. The Doctor made many
happy and appropriate illusions.
The next speaker was Judge Coch-
ran, who opened up by saying that II
ever he was tempted to get sick 1t was
tonight. he was gratified to see the
progress that had been made in
this city: il was certainly
commensurate with the broad citizen
ship, the generosity and charitable spir-
it of the people of Wheeling. A more
enterprising and genial class OF people
he had never met. The city has taken
an upward start, and will likely ever
keep going upward.
Other interesting speakers were Rev.
Mr.. Trey, OF the First Baptist church,
and Rabbi Bonneheim, OF the Jewish
Synagogue. Mr.. Bonnheim made a
particularly eloquent and pleasing ad-
dress.

HOSPITAL NOTES.
Four patients will be received to-day,
three males and one female.
One OF the pound donations con-
tanned pennies. There were just l52
coppers in the pound.
Blue and white are the hospital COL
ors, and ribbons of these colors were
worn by all the ladies on committees.
Applications have been made to fur
nish three more rooms; the city teach
ers and citizens Of Bridgeport are among
them.
There was register IN one OF the
rooms over which Mrs. Stifel presided,
and in which all guests were supposed
TO register. Up to the hour OF closing,
last night, SIS name were emblazoned
on the pages.
The pound feature OF the opening
was q great success. The big clothes
basket was placed at the entrance, and
as the guests arrived they would drop
their pound package therein. Every
few minutes the basket would be re-
moved filled to the rim, and an empty
one replace it.
"Why, where have l met you; I've
seen your face BEFORE" said the fasci-
mating matron, Miss haywood, to Mr..
James B. Mckee, yesterday afternoon.
Didn't l see you about six
or seven years ago at Flush
ing, Ohio" And sure enough,
about seven years ago Mr.. Mckee met
with railroad accident at Flushing, and
while being conveyed from the depot In
a carriage Miss haywood, who was then
a school teacher in Flushing, caught
glimpse Of the face and always remem-
bered it. A remarkable memory, that.
Jim went right over TO the Hospital
again last evening.
