HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
NOW TO HAVE FRESH SALAD,

To keep celery, lettuce and similar
salads fresh and crisp, it is necessary to
protect them from evaporation of moist
ure. If they are washed, shaken to re-
move superhuous water, placed in deep
dish and very closely covered with
another one that excludes air and the
dish placed on the floor of a cold cellar,
they will keep fresh q reasonable time.
Lettuce that is slightly wilted or heated,
if so treated for even a few hours, will
revive and be as fresh az if picked be
fore sunrise. This way is better than
putting either celery or lettuce IN an ice

DOCKING LAMBS.

The operation of docking the tails OF
young lambs is now very generally re-
sorted to, and conduces greatly to the
comfort and improved appearance of the
sheep in after life. 1t may be done at
any time, though it is best done, and
with least pain, when the lambs arc
quite young. The tail is then but
slightly sensitive, the bone being soft
and the tendons and nerves but little
grown. In docking lambs some varia-
ton is made in the length, according to
sex and breed. Ewes should have the
tail left somewhat longer than the males.

cLryELAND 10 WITHDRAW.
The New York World Claims TO Have
Further Evidence of His Intention

The New York World claims to Have
Further Evidence of His Intention
New YORK, January pa dispatch
| from Albany, n. Y, to the World says:
| The history of the secret and most re-
cent political movement in this State
told now for the first time, confirms in
every particular the story puollsheo
the other day that ex-President CleVe-
land has contemplated for some time
writing a letter announcing his with
drawal as a possible candidate for the
| Presidential nomination by the Demo
| Gratis. That he still intends to write
such a letter is believed by his friends.
| They will not be surprised II 1t IS maze
public within three weeks.
The letter would have already been
published but for the Drotestations OF
| friends. He is now believed TO be merely
awaiting developments which these
friends hope may attend the movement
they have put under way.
Two weeks ago IN the city OF New
| York there was conference of some OF
the most prominent Cleveland men in
| this State. Since then these gentlemen
have had other meetings in different
part of the State, and sort OF an
agreement was reached to consider
what could be done in the way Of max
ing a fight for the control Of the New
York delegation to the National Con-
ventiOn.
There,was no explicit agreement that q
fight should be made, but they resolved
to see what could be done-what the
prospects were of getting at least a Sut-
fcient number of delegates to refute the
claims of the friends Of Hill that New
York was unanimously for his nomina-
tiOn for President.
At the very first meeting they were
dismayed by the statement that Mr..
Cleveland so far despaired Of success
that he had made up his mind to with
draw from the race. To at least one
personal friend here in Albany he was
reported TO have said that the whole
State seemed to be against him. Since
then Cleveland men have been holding
secret conferences in most OF the cities
Of the State, and presumably some Of
the county towns and comparing notes
as to what they can do at the primaries.
W uDubNGi IutJ nav bSOA eohNN WcNNN
the prospects they speak in most de-
spairing tone. Most of them say it
would be folly to begin contest. Mr..
Cleveland has been quoted as advising
them that if the majority Of the party
seems to be against him they must not
seek to create any factional difference,
as he is too good a Democrat not to
cheerfully bow to the will Of that ma
jority.
Now the Hill followers don't believe a
word of all this. They are in something
of futter, and say that their rivals
are seeking to create the impression
that they have no chance Tor success
for the purpose OF deceivng their ad-
verSaries and winning by sudden dash
on the primaries from under cover.
It is certain that the Hill men believe
that organization is going on in secret
for a contest, and that part Of the plan
is TO deceive them. 1t is hard to say
whether these fears are we'll grounded,
though they are probably born Of ignor-
ance as TO the real intention OF the
Cleveland men.

TO INVESTORS.

This glorious country has entirely too
many wildcat concerns in it, which
catch and fleece the unWary by means
Of attractive advertisements in the
newspapers and periodicals telling OF
the magnificent investments open to all
corners DESTROYS Of specializing in real
estate in a blooming" locality. The
majority Of these display lads" repre-
sent some ''fake" concern which has no
intention to fulfill the promise Of its
advertisement. One concern whose
field Of operations is in the suburbs OF
Chicago and its business Office in the
cock-loft Of one Of Chicago's tall
buildings, and which is Haunting its lad"
in every periodical and newspaper that
will receive it, tells It's story TO suit the
locality and the people it may be deal
ing with In temperance publication,
for instance, the town is advertised as
"Chicago's temperance suburb" while
in Wheeling they give the impression
in their ''ad" that it is as lively and
''wide OPEN. town as its proximity to
Chicago would suggest.
OF the character Of the investments
this particular association is hawking
about the country we have nothing to
say, for we know nothing about it;
bat the REGISTER desires TO warn its
readers against all such schemes and to
impress upon them the advisa-
bnlty Of investing their money,
If they have # TO invest, in their
own town or State. In no part
Of the Union to-day can better or more
solid and paying investments Of every
character be found than in Wheeling or
In the rapidly developing interior OF
West Virginia. There is no "boom"
about IL, in the common acceptance OF
the term; 10 is all solid development
and sure and certain progress. 1t
would be almost impossible for an in
yestor to make q mistake in putting his
money in any Wheeling or in any West
Virginia enterprise, even though he did
iJ with his eyes shut. Whether the
investor desires to put his money in &C
tive Industry or to "salt it down" in
real estate no better opportunities are
offered anywhere than are to be found
right here at home. Our wealth is
real. There is not a city in the
world more solid financially than Wheel
ing, and there is not a State in the
Union more favored by Nature than
West Virginia. Her development has,
we may say, just begun, and there is no
possibility Of a retrograde movement for
generations to come.
The West Virginian who sends his
money outside OF his own State makes
mistake, and in a majority Of cases he
might as well kiss it good bye; and the
Wheeliuglte who wishes to invest in
real estate and neRlects the oppOrtuni-
ties presented right under his nose in
his own solid and growing town will go
farther and fare worse.

Odd Items From Everywhere.

The oldest rose bush In the world is
at Hildersheim, in Holland. IL was
planted more than 1000 years ago by
Charlemagne in commemoration of a
visit made to him by the ambassador OF
the Caliph Haroun Al-Raschid. After
it had become a 1ourishing vine a
cathedral was built over It. IL is
known, however, that coffin-shaped
vault was built around its sacred roots

dral in ll46 The bush is now twenty
six feet high and covers thirty-two feet
of the wall. The stem, after goo years
growth, is only two inches in diameter.
1t is we'll known that horses can hear
deep sounds which we cannot. For days
previous to the earthquake In the Ri
yiera, the horses there showed every
symptom of AFFECT fear, which con-
tInued without any change Of character
till the fury Of the CONFUSION broke
forth. But not till few seconds be-
fore the earth began to quake did hu-
man beings hear any sounds, while 1t is
extremely probable that the horses
heard the subterranean noises for two
or three days previously.

MEEr1Ne OF raL STATE COMmTrEE.

MEETING OF THE STATE COMMITTEE.
The State Democratic Executive Com
mittee meets at Parkersburg to-day. In
addition to fixing the time and method OF
holding conventions TO select delegates
to the National Convention to be held
st Chicago next June, the committee
win probably fix the date and place for
holding the State Convention, which
dominates State officers, Supreme
Judge, etc. In this connection the
REGISTER desires TO impress upon the
committee the advisab.liJy Of naming an
early date for the State Convention.
Just as soon after the National Conven-
ton as possible would be the proper
thing. An early convention settles the
the question Of candidates. The sew
eral competitors and their friends have
ample time to cool of, heal up their
sores and get down to work; further,
Il effectually ends the hot fights be-
tween candidates in many sections OF
the State-6ghts which are sure to In
crease in bitterness as the time is pro-
longed for holding the convention.
Objections may DO made that an early
convention will interfere with the
farmers work and that he cannot attend.
The REGISTER thinks there is not much
In this objection. About every farmer
Who has made up his mind to attend, is
Eoing to be there, whether it be held in
June or July.
There is another matter which APP
peals for an early convention. If new
State Executive Committee is selected
It will want all the time possible TO ad-
lust It's working harness, and 70 getting
use to it. 10 may be remarked just
here, that whether the Committee to
carry out the work of the coming cam
paign, be the old one or new one, it
has got to hustle aud it ought TO have
al the time possible 10 which TO do it.
Let US have an early Convention.
