AN Example of Self Preservation.

81 was one OF party OF six" said DR..
Welworth, of Otterbeln college. Ohio,
"that left the village OF Hartzberg, in
Switzerland, one August morning a few
years ago, to attempt to scale the rocky
heights OF the Matterhorn. We secured
two guides, and having assembled the
first easy slopes we came TO where the
guides advised the use of the chain
system-that is, of taking a long rope
and knotting it about the waist
of each person, about twenty feet
apart. Then If one should slip or
fall he could not roll away, for
the others could assist him. We tied
ourselves together and resumed the
ascent Soon we were high into the
regions Of cold winds, and steadily
nearing the clouds that cap the noun
tain's peak. Several times one or an
other of the men fell, and each time
had regained his position with the aid
of the rope.
"All at once great cry came from
below; the last three of my companions
had slipped and fallen and their combined
weight threatened to drag US all over
the cliff. | staggered under the load,
as did the second guide, who was close
behind me, the elder guide having
taken the lead. The situation was pre-
carious. We were all slipping from our
positions. The leading guide at last
lost his grip and called down from
above to cut the rope. l did not under
stand until the guide below me drew a
knife aud severed the rope between him
self and our last three companions.
They rolled away over the precipice and
were no doubt crushed below. This
freed us Of a great weight and we all re-
gained our feet. Then we decided to
retreat. The guide seemed not to re-
greet his action very much. He said it
was simply choice of three or eight
deaths, and he preferred three. 1t was
an awful occurrence, but illustrated to
me the lawless, ethicless character OF
necessity and self preservation.

stImulate tho Blood.

BRANDRETH's PILLS are the great
blood purifier. They are a purgatiye
and blood tonic, they act equally on the
bowels, the kidneys, and the skin, thus
cleansing the system by the natural
outlet Of the body-they may be called
the purgative sudoriic and diuretic
medicine. They stimulate the blood so
as to enable nature to throw off all NOR
bid humors, and cure disease no matter
by what name it may be called. One or
two of them taken every night will
prove an infallible remedy.
Sold in every drug and medicine store,
either plain or sugar coated.

CAMDEN, LEWIS Co., w. VA,

10 Rs El,for Of hs Rsolssss:
SIR: Have we another trust to rob the
farmers Of their wool? only offering
20 cents, 5 cents less than last year, is
there any reason for it?
Two or three years ago when we were
only getting 25 cents, they said, ''Oh,
the tariff is not high enough" Well,
shey showed il up notch or two and
there was an attempt made last year to
put it down, but failed by new firm
coming in the market; but it looks now
like the combine was made. and so far
as / can see l thing the farmers had
better hold on awhile before selling and
pay no attention to: "Oh, the Demo-
Gratis are going to put wool on the free
list and il will 90 still lower"
If Congress will put it on the free list
aud very small per cent. on the good
Mckinley rates shoddy and rags. II we
do not get more money for our wool, we
can get genuine WOODEN goods to wear,
for you cannot 60 into any OF our viii
lage or country stores and buy yard
of WOODEN goods:salI shoddy.
But please look into the matter and
advise US the best you can.

Literary Success Outside of New York,


The greatest literary successes have
been made outside OF New York. The
most successful books of the past ten
years, with two or three exceptions,
have neither been written in New York
nor published within its borders; the
literary men aud women OF foremost rep
utation do not all, by any means, live
in New York; although New York pub
fishes the the bulk OF the best known
periodicals, the two American periodi-
Gals having achieved the largest
and most merited calculations
are both published In other
cities than New York, and the three
poets conceded now to be the truest
representatives OF American poetry are
not one OF them residents OF New York.
do not say that all this may not be
changed in the future, In fact, think
it very probable that IL will, but these
are potent facts as they now exist In
no sense do they question New York's
supremacy.
cite these facts merely to let them
testify TO the undoubted truth that a
literary success can be made outside OF
New YORK just "a well as from IL.
Charles Egbert Craddock did not
go to New York to win literary fame,
nor did she even choose New York
publisher, and the same is true OF Ed
ward Belamy. Nor did Eugene Field
or James Whltcomb Riley feel that they
needed to go to New York to reach en-
inence as writer's. Mr.. Howells made
his success years before be went 10 New
York. Joel Chandler Harris and Thomas
Nelson Page spoke from the South and
were heard in New York. Lew Wal
lace did not find II necessary TO 90 to
New York to write "Ben Hur." And
thus one might go on indefinitely.

CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO, May 5.-A courier
arrived here yesterday bringing informa-
ton Of an attack made by several hundred
YaQui Indians on detachment Of $50 gov
eminent soldiers who had been sent against
them. The fight occurred near the Chihua-
hua State line west Of SOpuarepa, and re-
suited IN number on both sides being
killed and wounded. The Indians are well
armed and fought desperately, compelling
the government troops 10 beat hasty re
treat without carrying OF their dead and
wounded from the field. The Indians have
sent word that no troops or strangers will
be permitted 10 enter their country, and as
the government will send large force Of
regulars against them, an exciting and
bloody campaign is expected.

YESTERDAY was the last day on
which Cinnamon could register under
the Geary act. Next Wednesday the
Supreme Court will hear arguments on
the constitutionalitY Of the law. Until
the court decides the question the IN
registered celestlals will by order Of the
Treasury Department be secure from
arrest and deportation. II the law is de-
cided constitutional then the fun will
begin. There are about 100000 China
men in the country and scarcely any Of
them have obeyed the law. AS it will
cost $50 head to send them back to
Nhipa. il would take the United States
several years at a cost OF some s5,oOO,-
600 TO carry out the laws provisions.

THE Chamber Of Commerce is called
to meet this afternoon, as per advertise
ment. The business is to take some
action In regard TO the new time sched-
ule Of the B. & o., which goes into
effect on the 14th instant, and over
which many Of our business men are
much concerned. 1t is feared the sched-
nle viii work great harm to Wheeling
commercial and industrial interests and
no doubt the fear is well founded.
So important a matter deserves
a full attendance OF members. We be-
lieve if the Chamber presents the situa-
ton to the railroad officials in the
proper light they will make any reason
able concession that may be asked. At
any rate, it will do no harm 30 make
the effort.

Another RESERVOIR In Danger.

CLEVELAND, o., May 5.-A special from
Lima, Ohio, says: The Laramie reservoir
covering about 5000 acres of ground, and
located at the intersection of Shelby and
Mercer counties threatens to bursti its
banks. The reservoir is brim full and the
continued washing of the waves is wearing
the south embankment away until 1t Is in
greatly weakened condition and fears are
entertained that it cannot be long re-
strained. The Laramie reservoir IS a feed
er for the Miami and Erie canal.

GAINESVILLE, o., May 5.-Samuel Ellis
was assaulted in front Of the City Hall at
this place this evening by his wife with a
club, which size had wrapped up in paper.
The woman stole sum Of money from
Ellis. who is the foreman Of the coal mines
at St. Clairsville Junction, some time ago,
and came to this place and has been living
with her sister. Ellis has had parties
watching her for some tune and that is
presumed to be the cause Of the trouble to-
day. The man was pretty badly used up
and the woman was arrested.
