INTERESTING MEETINGS

Being Held at the Hearne Tabernacle.
The most interesting kind Of meet
ings are being held each evening at the
Hearne Tabernacle. Rev. Craft, Of In
diana, an eloquent and earnest gentle
man, has addressed the meeting the
last two evenings. Last night the
meeting was very interesting, and near
ly two hundred persons were In attend
ance. The newly organized mission
Sunday school is also being successfully
conducted, and about one hundred
scholars attend. Charitable persons
from all over the city are send
ing suits and all kinds of clothing
to the Tabernacle for distribution
among the poor Of the city and the
needy wanderers. A large number OF
suits have been distributed 10 the needy,
and there are now over two hundred at
the building ready to be given to the de-
serving. These charitable persons are
talking OF making arrangements TO sup
ply the poor wayfarer with bed for the
night when an application Is made. 1t
is also probable that within few weeks,
somewhere Ia that neighborhood, a
lunch counter will be established where
the hungry can be fed. Persons con
trolling these movements are doing
great and good work, and the results
are already seen by the gratefulness Of
hundreds Of persons.

that possibly could be done under the

prohibited by law from extending aid
to any family having an able bodied son
or husband capable of furnishing sup
port, and it was agreed this provision
must be lived up to.

sand persons from Wheeling or vicinity
insured their lives with one company in
this city before starting. On these per-
sons the company lost nearly 5000 by
small accidents occurring TO the in

were injured while on the cars. This
company did we'll by the fair, as they
came out several hundred dollars ahead.

the city insured fully as many more,
and came out equally as well. Wheel
ing people were very fortunate, as none
of them suffered a serious accident
while visiting the fair. Few cities Of
Wheeling's size sent more visitors, and
