snort creek, Iesterohy hSfAnk'
There was quite serious robbery at
the mouth of Short Creek, yesterday
morning about one o'clock, two or more
| thieves effeeting an entrance into the
| residence of Charles Kyle, the grocer
and postmaster at that point and secur-
| ing considerable booty.
About the hour named the thieves
opened latched window In Mr.. kyle's
residence, which is In the same building
with his grocery, and thus got Into the
house. From the residence portion they
! attempted to force their way into the
store, but being unable to do so, they
went up stairs, and administered
chloroform to about all the members
of the family. They then went through
the premises, securing god watch,
ring, several dollars In money, ana
some other articles Of value. Mrs.
Kyle was aroused by the restlessness OF
the baby, about the time the thieves
got through with their inspection OF the
premises, and got up just In time TO see
one OF the fellows disappearing out OF
her bed room door. There were az
least two of the thieves, one remaining
outside on guard while the other weht
through the house, and both succeeded
In making good their escape.
The city police were informed OF the
robbery yesterday morning, but there
being little in the way Of description TO
go on, 20 arrests of suspects were made.
Mr.. Kyle stated yesterday TO REGIS
TER reporter that he had such a heavy
dose OF chloroform that his wife mad
great difficulty in arousing him, after
she had discovered the presence OF the
thief In the bed room. he also stated
that he had suspected on several occa-
sions that he was being Swallowed, when
he had, or was thought to have, consid-
cradle sums OF money, and that
he had exercised a great deal
OF caution. He had sometimes thouVht'
thieves might enter and rob bis store,
but never dreamed they would go
through the dwelling. As illustrating
the care and discrimination OF the thief
who searched the house, he took val
liable gold ring from drawer in the
room, but left one of little value alone.
In their haste to get away the thieves
left shot gun and some shells.

THE WABASH SYSTEM TO COME INTO WEST

At Wheeling Junction and Run Thence to Pitts

Railroad Intelligence

The Wabash system is to be extended
from Steubenville to Pittsburg, and
thence north to Lake Erie. 1t may also
come to Wheeling, entering this city
over the Union railroad bridge, or COM
Ing down parallel with the "Pewiky''
tracks from Wheeling Junction, oppo-
site Steubenville. The surveys from
Steubenville to Pitssburg have all been
made, and that the road will be built Is
said to be certain.
The passenger train on the Wheeling

ly TO hold up its reputation as the mat
rimonial train. 1t seems that about
every couple between Wheeling and
Pittsburg who enter into life partner
ship and start on q wedding tour select
Conductor Ball's train on which to traV-
el. Wednesday evening on the trip from

than four "blushing and beautiful"

Washington, Pa, as guests at the Glass
Hamilton nuptials. "Matrimony" was
written all over the train.
Trains Nos. and 6, the Baltimore
aud Ohio's limited, which run through
here, continue to make time which en-
tirey meets the appreciation OF Super
intendent Cutter, of the Pittsburg d.
vision, who is noted as being an excel
lent transportation man. He said yes
terday that on the western end of the
line the farmers are setting their
watches by the trains, so regularly do
they run. All of the trainmen handling
the new flyers, he added, take an espe-
cial pride in getting then through on
time, one reason for which Is that they
know they are being closely watched
by the trainmen and others OF the main
line, where the trains formerly ran, and
they wish to show the main line people
that they know what good railroading
consists Of. Inclusive Of stops, the two
trains are scheduled to run at an aver
age speed Of 35 miles an hour, but Mr..
Cutter said that on several stretches on
the Pittsburg division they maintain q
speed of fully a mile minute.-Pitts-

eases from well arranged collections:
series illustrating the life histories:
exhibits Of insecticides and machinery
for applying them, and some exceed
ingly interesting wax models OF in
sects: those of the cilinch bug and hop
plant louise being especially note
worthy. A convenient labelling Of tic
various exhibits and specialize t. ex-

Spanish-American commonwealth had
best step into her section in the Agri-
cultural building. There his nostrils
will at once be assailed by pungent
odors arising from hundreds of hides
and fresh fieeces. and from immense
piles of wool. They must produce
some of the finest wool in the world
there, for one huge English firm, own
ing enormous estates and hocks OF
sheep by the hundred thousand, ex-
libits wool, taken from Al of these
Hocls, that is 9 inches long and soft
and pliable as silk. Besides these
staples, there are tobacco and sugar,
canned goods and coffee in variety. In
Manufactures building there is also
quite a display Of interest is their art
cxhibit-oil paintings and bronze
busts, carved woodwork and hand
made laces, being quite surprise. One
of these paintings, while, perhaps, not
quite faultless in technique, is I'M
usually happy in inspiration. Its
theme is taken from poem by Nunez
dc Arce, and shows Martin Luther up
ON a hill, looking down on the Rome
of his day. In the Forestry building
is a huge assortment of woods, among
them the quebracio, tree whose
bark yields fannie acid to the extent
of 20 per cent. All told, some 400 speci-
mems of wood are on view.
The two neighbors of the Argentine
Republic, Uruguay and Paraguay, are
both represented in measure. Uru-

and silken wells to hides. cigars, books
and jewelry. The display is well and
tastefully arranged for SO heterogene-
GUS one, and there are no fewer than
1874 exhibitors represented in it.
Paraguay, though, shows finer and
more typical display. In her section
in Agricultural building she has placed
her cigars and leaf tobacco on view.

native ladies-and her wool and hides
