production of "a Lady Of Venice"
which has met with great success In
Philadelphia and Baltimore during the
week just closed. The play Is said to
be strong and highly romantic in char
acter, and the scenic embellishments
have made the piece noteworthy, and
the production has been spoken OF on q
par with those Of the Henry Irving COM
pany. Miss ClemmonS will bring with
her a superior company. The press OF
all the large cities have spoken Of the
play, company and star in most eulo-
CYSTIC terms, so the Wheeling public
have every reason to suppose that "a
Kady OF Venice" will be we'll worth see
ing.
The play is for cast Of eighteen peo-
pie, and all told there are twenty-five
people travelling. Among the leading
actors are Francis Carlyle, Clarence
Handyside, w. B. Arnold, ErskIne
Lewis, Richard Ganthony, E. 7. Gavin,
Helen Russell, Efie Germon and Marion

SR:-Railroad men are very in dig
nant at Mr.. Mllligan, q representa- tive
Of the Council Of the city OF Wheeling,
for applying some very opprobrIous
epithets TO the railroad men in general.
III Hon. Mr.. Milligan had only hesi-
tated for one m oment and made a little
investigation he would have found out
whether or not the railroad men could
read or write. For his Information in
the future we would say that any APP
plicant making application for any
position within the gift Of the com
pany must make the application
i'm his own handwriting, and as for
haunting the railroad men as to the
wages they receive, they are fully capa.
bic OF taking care Of themselves, as all
indications show that they are receiv-
log all the way from $50 to S16O per
month.
Probably the honorable gentleman
may be able TO do better, but we have
our serious doubts IL he could. But
suffice it to say, the railroad men will
forever think kindly Of him for the cpl
thet applied to them. y.
