Some of Augustus small boys have
made a good thing out of maple sugar this
spring. Their mode of procedure was In
genious in its apparent innocence. They
first foraged around and located all the ms
pie trees snd got the permission Of as many
owners as possible to tap the trees. In this
way they secured considerable quantity
of sap, which they have boiled down and
are now selling the sugar. One man &C
tually discovered that he had paid 20 cents
pound for sugar made from sap taken
out of his own trees. 1t was good sugar
though, he says.
Again and yet again has the idea OF Of

some Roadway and now set Of determined
fellows have taken it up with the intention
of carrying it through. II they succeed IN
organizing club they plan to secure ffs
lease Of large house on State street in .
central location and to have club equal 70

How . wheeling Man was ROPed in Is
the Jacktown Fair.

II
the Jacktown Fair.
The annual fair at JacktoWn, near
Cameron, always attracts miscella-
neous collection Of sports from THIS
city, who take advantage OF the I'M
sophisticated countrymen, who attend
the show in swarms. The Wheeling
gang usually brings back good slice
OF whatever filthy lucre is floating
about, even If questionable means have
to be resorted to, to capture the a1ore-
said lucre. This year, however, In
spite of the immense attendance at the
Fair, there is not one of the sports who
is not telling hard luck story Among
the iakirs who came back 'Sadder out
wiser" is a we'll known shell game
man, who by reasons OF very Oily
tongue, is generally regarded as one OF
the smoothest men in the business
The sport in question, opened up his
innocent looking paraphernalia, con-
sisting of three English walnut shells,
and a tiny black bali, and in his most
persuasive eloquence, invited the good
people to invest in the "only square
game on the grounds" In the crowd
which gathered, were two Jacobs, who
watched operations with open mouthed
wonder. A "capper" selected the right
shell, and won q "V' from the faklr.
"Wno's the next man TO win five?
Will you pick up the right shell for
S. note9" addressing the country boys.
IL don't know" said Lice, while
Bud vainly endeavored to pull him away
from the enticing game. The fakir
moved the shells around, until Lige
thought he had lead pipe cinch on
the right shell.
Gosh burned II 1 don't reckon 1 can
win that" he blurted.
Come away Lige," said Bud. still
clinging consciously to his abbreviated
coat tail. "You know nav gave you
that money to pay off the mortgage.
What'll she say if you lose it?"
"B'gosh 1 amt goin' to lose 1t, re-
torted Lige.
He then reached down into his capa-
cious trousers pocket, and produced
small knife, with which he proceeded
To rip open a fob pocket, in which the
mortgage money had been placed, and
the pocket sewed up TO prevent losing
it to pickpockets. He finally pulled out
a new $50 note, his eyes never leaving
the shells.
"Pll bet you So" he said, and the
fakir counted out S4S in change. or
course the countryman- lost. The woe
begone expression on his face, was one
of supreme happiness compared to the
long countenance Of the fakir few
days later, when he had the bill re-
turned to him in this city, because 1t
was a counterfeit The fakir now sadly
muses. with his inner self, aud the bur-
den of his thoughts is-"things are not
what they SEEM" He has since learned
that the two countrymen were sharp
ers, and he was the victim Of their lit
tie game.

The business now conducted by john
sons Sons was established in a modest
way by George w. johnson In 1885, and

ill it has assumed its present proper
tiOnS. Mr.. johnson was one OF Wheel
ing's best known end most highly es-
teemed citizens. He died in Cincinnati

ness has increased so rapidly during
recent years that the facilities provided
by the old building were found INSULT
cient, and the erection Of the. present

JIMMY" HURT.
The Cha mpion Meets With an Accident
at Baltimore.

The champion Meets With an Accident
at Baltimore.
Zimmerman, the champion bicycle
rider Of the world, who participated in
the races in this cily, in connection
with the State L. A. w. meet, last
week, was injured on the track at Bal
more on Thursday. He was making
one OF his famous spurts and fell on the
curve, sliding twenty feet or more.
He was unconscious for awhile, but re-
covered soon, although he did not take
part in any more races. He was badly
shaken up.
Zimmerman stated to a Baltimore re-
porter that he expects within a short
time to see a mile done in 1853, which
will be six seconds faster than his pres
ent record. When Jimmy" began
racing, in 1855, PAS was considered re-
markable time for mile. He claims
he was not we'll paced when he made
his lowest record, and thinks he can do
better.
