qhc Hest Chess Players.
In what part OF the world is chess
most honorcdi Before the close OF
the last century the best players were
of the Latin race-Italians, Portu-
guese and Spaniarls. Their names
were Greco, Lucena, Salvio, Carrera,
Damiana and Lopez. Libraries are
crowded with the works OF these
men on chess or'with the TRANSACTIONS
of their DO ,l:s < s z
After having held the chess scepter
for several centuries, the glory OF the
Latin race has departed. It does not
looktotlay asst the LIZ Inns would ever
wrest victory from their conquerors
The great players, who are Germans,
Slavs OF Anglo Saxons, have left US
fat in the rear. The Jews are the
great players Ihave had a list made
cut ofsthe 62 great chess players Of
thS world, and Is Of these are Jews
Some are from Poland, others from
Hungary. All the great Jewish chess
players are professional. "-Rovue

The c, & P. officials, after a careful
Investigation Of the facts. arrived at the
conclusion that the wreck at Wellsville,
some days ago, was due to the disregard
Of train signals by Conductor GEORGE
CARoTuERs, who IS dead. This conduc-
tor had the reputation OF being care
iul man, and yet at a critical moment
his usual watchfulness abandoned him.
This is not only so Of UARoTHERs, but
the same may be said in dozens Of other
cases when terrible accidents occur on
railroads, and the cause Is chargeabe TO
some man who has heretofore been very
careful. 1t Is usually the most respon-
slble man who brings about the trouble.
Men seem to lose their heads at a criti-
cal moment 1t will always be
so. Men do things in other avocations
Of life that they cannot account for,
which makes serious trouble sometimes,
but the mistake never comes under
public notice, because no one is hurt
and the general public is not concerned.
The most careful men, too, outside Of
railroad employment, make these mis-
takes. Aud there is no remedy.
Mistakes will occur so long as it is
human nature to err. That some rail-
road employees ara grossly careless, In
fact criminally So, none can deny, but
as is argued above, the mistake is usu'
ally made by the most careful men In
the service. Men seem to lose con-
sciousness for the time being.
There Is a partial remedy for the fire.
quent railroad accidents OF to-day, and
it is this: Require all trunk lines to lay
double tracks, and adopt a system OF
government inspection Of tracks and
bridges by competent engineers, the
same as the steamboat inspection is now
carried out by the government on the
rivers.

AFARIFF STRAW.

One Of the fnfant" industries highly
protected by the Mckinley law is the
manufacture Of carpets. 1t raised the
tax on carpets to an unreasonable per-
centage on the plea that it was neces-
sary TO enable the manufacturers to
compete with their foreign rivals. Now
comes the intelligence that an Ameri-
can firm Of carpet manufacturers are
exporting carpets to Europe. This is
another confirmation Of the charge that
the protected manufacturers sell their
products abroad cheaper than they do
in the home market.
II these American carpet manuiac-
lures can sell their goods in Europe in
competition with the world, it must be
because they can afford TO sell them
cheaper. The inquiry, then, naturally
arises Of what use is the tariff tax Of
from go TO 100 Per cent? 1t can serve
but one purpose, and that is 1t enables
the manufacturers to sell carpets TO their
customers in the United States at
higher price than they obtain in for
eign markets. In other words the
American people are bO'sterlng up GER
tain manufacturers with high proteC-
tlon and the foreigners are reaping the
benefit 10 cheap goods. Great is Nc
Kinleyism.

An Eniorable Occasion.

The second annual ball of the Ideal
club came off last night, at Franzheim's
Hall, and was more than success.
The affair was under the management
OF Mr.. VIII Windsor. and the way he
conducted it was reflected in the merri-
ment Of the dancers. The club rooms
were handsomely decorated with ever
greens, while 10 the centre OF the room
hung a large basket of natural flowers,
composed of roses and pinks. Ruby
shades covered the gas jets, casting a
beautiful glow all over the room. The
most noticeable thing was the costumes
of the ladies who fitted about with
their escorts. The Opera House Or
chestra furnished the dance music,
which was very fine, while Max Hess
had charge of the floral decorations.
At 1l:45 the orchestra struck up an APP
propriate grand march, which was led
by Mr.. WINS and Miss Annie Bre-
mer. Later all retired to the dining
room, on the second floor, and discussed
pleasant repast, furnished by Mr..
Hosford, OF the Fort Henry Club. There
were several visitors from Steubenville,
Cadiz and Bellaire, and taken as a
whole, the affair was very enjoyable
one and success.

TIMELY HINTS AND SECRETS

"These are times that try mems souls"
The speaker was one of the leading pro-
fessors in a New York medical college and
he was addressing an audience OF ladies
and gentlemen who had assembled TO listen
to his wisdom.
"The bonk failures, the mercantile fail
ures, the scarconess Of money, the dizziness
of business, the anxiety connected with 1t,
all bring fearful pressure on men aud
women all the time. 1t is no wonder we
hear of suicides and other desperate deeds
at such times as These. Men are under a
terrible strain and women naturally suffer
by sympathy.
"All these things are to be expected, but
so far as persons feelings and health are
concerned, they should all be easily over
come. do not mean by running away
from duty or by resorting TO sumulantsi
will tell you what mean.
FOR a number Of years among all the
discoveries and inventions of science, one
thing has stood pre-eminent and prominent
1t has done more to relieve men when over
burdened, to make omen happy when de-
spondent, in fact, it has been king among
QlSGUNtTlCS Ol LlulOS lOL tAAAS PAA
pose and, Of course, il has been the most
popular think you already know what
refer 20. 1t is that grand, that imcompara-
BILE preparation known as Warmers SAFE
Cure. You have all, or nearly all OF you,
heard of it and know how popular IL is and
what high standing il bears, but you can
not know SO we'll as the professional man
what relation it sustains 10 suffering hui
manity. / have known men who were run
down, debilitated, discouraged, despairing.
They resorted 10 this remedy and were
brought 10 health and hopefulness, their
ambition restored, and their Prosperity
assured. l have seen wdmen who were
pale, weak suffering; women who had
family cares and women who wore carry
ing burden of pain, and have seen these
same women restored to rosy health and
happiness These are facts which are
known and proven by thousands Of people,
and which can be easily verified in every
community upon the American continent,
1T is by the constant use of this great
discoy cry that men and women may be
enabled TO so through the trying times
which are now upon us, in health and even
with hopefulness. Certainly there is no
such standard remedy known to the world
to-day as Warmers Safe Cure; certainly
there is nothing which takes hold OF the
system so gently, yet so powerfully, and
produces those effects which we so much
desire; and certainly il should be used by
all who are either run down or suffering"
