rho uso OF lhc WORD nnlrs.r

A curiously awkward word. if if he
a word. is Mrs" 1t is not spelled as
it is pronounced-no one but n
Welshman on o Pole would be equal
to pronouncing it as it Is spelled
and its pronunciation is a clumsy
contraction Of the good old English
designation mistress. In days of old.
when, as Mr.. Austin DObson has de-
picted for us in so many graceful
verses. leisure had not become. as il
is now, almost a forgotten luxury
and people were less anxious to clip
their speech, the full pronunciation
was often used, and mistress" was
not altogether elbowed out of exist
ence by the vulgar ''missis." But
nowadays mistress" has become as
much a term of opprobrium as of
honor, and consequently the con-
tracted pronunciation Of Mrs" has
prevailed and holds the field.
Another point worth noting in the
history Of the designation is that
about $50 years ago and earlier
Mrs" was applied quite Impartially
to unmarried as well married ladies.
Even children were sometimes styled
Mrs" The burial of an infant
daughter of John Milton who died
at the age of 5 months is recorded in
the parish register of St. Margaret,
Westminster, and her name is en-
tered as Mrs. Katherine Milton"
followed by a small &C" to indicate
that a child is meant. But this may
be regarded as an exceptional use of
the title. -Sala's Journal.

sweeney residence in North Wheel
ling, but it is believed that TINS mas
been protected In the confession OF Jug
ment referred TO.
The firm of A. j. Sweeney & Son, con-
sisting OF the late A. j. Sweeney ana
John M. Sweeney, his son. was estao-
lished about twenty years ago, after
the failure Of the Superior Moving
Machine Work, in North Wheeling.
The old Hamilton foundry property, at
Twenty-seyenth and Chapline street,
was purchased, and most complete
foundry and machine shop was set In
operation. The business steady In
creased, and during late years reached
very large proportions, among the large
contracts being the fitted up OF extern
sive plate glass works in several parts
of the country Steamboat building was
also q branch of the business and some
OF the finest crafts upon the Western
waters were turned out by the frm.
The firm seemed to be prosperlng In a
most satisfactory manner, but about a
wear and a half ago the Establishments OF
boomers, both from the East and West,
determined the firm upon a removal
from Wheeling. 1t was at first deter
mined to locate the plant at Staunton,
Va, and the negotiations being salts
factory, buildings were erected there
upon an extensive scale. For some IN
known reason, the firm determined,
about the time it was ready to remove
TO Staunton that 1t would not 30 10 that
point, and the attractions OF Harvey be-
ing presented to them, the Staonton
building we're dismantled and whatever
was available was shipped to Harvey,
where a plant even more extern
siYe than at Staunton was erect
ed. Last fall this plant
was in shape to be partially operated,
and during the winter and the present
spring the machinery and fixtures OF
the Whesling establishment were
shipped to the new location, the last
cars of stuff going but very short time
ago. Now comes the present financial
embarrassment to stop the operations
and seriously jeopardize the future OF
the Company at q time when 1t was
really in shape for active and extensive
operations. That its affairs may be so
Strengthened out as to permit 1t to con-
tinue, will be the wish of every one here
in Wheeling, but that this will be the
result, no one seems to have sufficient
information to be atle to predict with
certainty.
Yesterday representatives OF Pitts
burg and local creditors, for various
small sums, were looking about for
something in the way Of assets here, but
what action was or will be taken, is
unknown.

Yesterdays REGISTER gave . rather
strong intimation that there was ahitch
in the proceedinginRs regarding the ap-
pointment Of Mr.. Robert Simpson, as
Collector Of Customs at this point. The
trouble was about the selection OF the
clerk. This morning our Washington
telegram states that the name OF Mr.. G.
A. Shafer has been sent in for the place
by Congressman Pendleton. and that
Mr.. NJ. Stein will be the clerk in the Of
fee. This seems to settle the matter
definitely, and the appointment OF Mr..
Shafer will meet with approval.

KELLER OF TIRE GAS WORKS.
A Legal OpInion that Mr. DobbinS' Rem
ody Would Be Proper.

ody Would Be Proper.
Since the adjournment Of Council, last
Tuesday, there has been a good deal OF
public discussion Of the merits OF the
plan proposed in the resolution offered
in the First Branch, by Mr.. 2. B. Dob
bins, for the relief Of the city gas works.
Mr.. Dobbins' idea was to raise the sum
OF $40. OOO-the estimated amount OF the
deficiency for 1892 and 1s9S-by tenn
porary loan based upon the electric
light plant, and not few people, inclu-
ding an attorney who has made the al
fairs OF the city quite a study, have
come TO the conclusion that Mr.. Dob
bins idea Is a proper one, and than re-
lief can be afforded In that manner.
To be sure, bondholders Of the city
might object, but If they did, and should
take the matter to Court, the worst
which could happen would be a writ OF
mandamus directed to Council, order
ing the levy OF special tax sufficient to
raise the required amount OF money.
THIS Is looked upon as very remote
contingency, however, as 1t is not at all
likely that any bondholder would OBJ
ject, as the city is abundantly able to
take care OF its indebtedness, and no
bank would refuse q chance to take
that little $500 loan, secured as has
been proposed.
OF course, this idea OF raising the
money may not be followed out, but
competent authority seems to be In
clined to the view that the money can
he raised In the manner indicated, II
Council desires TO go ahead.
