Now that the provisions OF the Rus

JIG it will be seen that its critics such as
Lecturer KEENAN, and other cvankily
inclined or prejudiced individuals, who
knew little or nothing about is provis-

Ii will appear on examination, says
the independent Washington Post that
so far from any unreasonable cOnces-
sions being granted to Russia, the most
liberal concessions that even the Rus
sophobists themselves could ask have
been made by Russia to the United
States. The very first section disarms
the critics aud puts them to confusion,
wherein, after reciting that the high
contracting parties agree 10 surrender
10 each other, upon mutual acquisitions,
certain persons, &c, it concludes with
the following provisions;
provided, that this shall only be done
upon such evidence Of eriminality as, &C
ccrding TO the laws OF the place where the
fugitive or person 50 charged shall be

Lost Their Nerve.

About a dozen boys got an awful
fright at the old Catholic cemetery, just
north Of Reymann's brewery, few
days ago. The cemetery now is much
dilapldated, and the boys were making
sort of exploring tour. A vault there
was open, and the boys went inside and
raised the lid Of a coffin. There they
saw the hand OF the corpse raised to the
mouth. They took but one look and
fed, and are not over their scare yet.
They thought il alive.

TWO DAYS SALE.
A Number of Good Lots Opposed of a

The lot sale at Hundred, Wetzel

a large crowd of bidders. j. G. Hervey,

The result of the sales for two days was
$50 lots, at prices ranging from $3.50
downward. Most Of the lots we're sold
very cheap, and in most cases to actual
bidders. One man had lumber on hts lot
an hour after he purchased 1t, and
at once started to erect store build

lots within few hours, at an advance

To fts Gator Of ths R'Olstss:
SIR. WILDER Nichols, a lawyer at
ST. Clairsville, and the late Republican
Senator from that District, made a
speech at the Republican State Couven-
ton, on Thursday, seconding the NOM
nation Of Gov Mckinley.
He presumed largely upon the ignor-
ance OF that convention, when he bold
" plagiariZed from the famous speech
of Conkling nominating General Grant.
This literary piracy and grand larceny
will completely destroy his reputation
in Belmont county, and very many Of
his own party will rejoice over his dis
grace and fall.

few extracts from each speech so the
reader can Judge for himself.

THF WASHINGTON DISASTER.
The fall OF the floors OF the Army and
Medical Museum building in Washing
ton yesterday morning is one Of the
most appalling accidents that has
startled the country for many years and
for which no one but the Government
Of the United States, itself, is to blame.
Asfar back as 1855 the building was
pronounced unsafe and the matter then
officially brought to the attention Of
Congress, which, however, took no
further notice Of the warning than to
have some Of the more valuable con-
ants of the building removed to safer
place, but only, however, to have their
room taken up by human beings. Con-
gress by its action apparently did not
regard human life as valuable
as the dried mummies and
specimens Of the medical
museum, aud, since then, and during
two administrations and several Con-
crosses, this death trap has existed.
The strange part Of it is thateverybody
in and about the building seems to have
been aware Of its totally unsafe and
actually dangerous condition, and yet
for eight years the building has con-
tlnued to be a hive OF busy clerks.
The disaster is due to the grossest
Negligence and the Ouly possible repara-
Congress can make, beyond that
due to individual sufferers, is to provide
for the immediate reconstruction Of
those other government buildings which
are reported to be in a condition that
menaces the lives Of the thousands Of
people who work in them.

Z MIND READING EXPERIMENT.

Mind Reader PAUL JOHNsoN's won
derful talent has got him into hole
Iiterally-and it doesn't seem to be
able to get him ont.
1t appears that to test his power
committee Of five gentlemen four days
ago went with him into the Big Wind cave
Of South Dakota to find pin which
one of the committee had secreted
there, and the party has not since been
heard Of.
The intricacies Of the great cavern,
it is thought, have been too much for
even the delicate sensibilities OF the
mind reader. and tits feared that he has
not only failed to find the object OF his
search, but has led the party so far
into the underground region that they
are unable to 6nd their way out. Since
they took with them only one days sup
DIV Of food the most serious fears are
entertained for their safety and
search party has been organized.
Can il be that the peculiar nervous
force which, when cultivated aud train
ed is known as mind reading" can
operate with certainty only under those
conditions which exist on the earth's
surface? JOHNSON, we believe, has
never before failed in the most con-
elusive test Of his power and his
experience in the great Dakota
cave may prove of value to
science as we'll as to the occult
fraternity, II he comes out alive to tell
about it. 1t may show that this subtle
communication depends as much upon
the electrical forces Of the air as upon
the gift Of the "mind reader" and that
when the latter is placed miles under
ground and away from the peculiar at
mospheric conditions existing on the
earth's surface he finds something miss
ing, like the telegraph operator who I'M
der certain conditions Of the air finds
that the wires wont work.
