Prof Brewers second evangellstic
meeting at Odd Fellows Hall, yesterday
afternoon, was attended by about two
hundred persons. The audience sang
yield Not to Temptation" and IRE
joice and Be Glad" Then Prof. Brewer
led in fervent prayer. The congrega-
tion then sang another hymn.
The Prodigal Son" was the theme
discussed bv Prof. Brewer. He said
while his subject was under the sweet
influence OF home life, he was a good
boy. 1t was only when he wandered
far away from home that he became
prodigal, He went away In pomp and
magnificence, came back in rags and
tears. Sin always degrades and changes
men, causing their tender hearts TO be-
come calous when the sweet, softenlns
influence of home is thrown 10 the
breeze, and mothers counsel is forgot.

The discourse was well received. The
speaker held the attention OF the au-
dieuce throughout, and was truly elo-
quent at times.
Next Friday afternoon at three
o'clock a meeting for children will be
held, and Prof Brewer will speak upon
David aud Goiah, or the giant and
the boy" Next Sunday services will
be held In the evening. Prof. Brewer
believes that Wheeling will be stirred
to It's foundations, spiritually, through
his meeting. He is full OF faith and
energy. "Any work that tends to re.
strainance and make men better. should
have the support Of all good men," he
says.

COL. Lewis Or WESTON
DROPS INTO TOWN TO LOOK OVER THE
POLITICAL FIELD.
Ee is Candidate for the Democratic Congressional
Nomination, With Considerable Sup.
plrl-P0litcal Notes.

COL A. A. Lewis. OF Weston, who Is gen.
orally understood to be candidate for
the Democratic nomination for Congress
in the First district, was in the city yes
terday He came to Wheeling TO look
over the field. become acquainted with
Democrats, and ascertain the feeling re-
garding his candidacy.
A REGISTER reporter asked Col. Lewis
about his chances for securing the NOM
ination. "I came TO Wheeling" he
said, 'to look over the field, not in an
aggressive way, however. will deter
mine later whether or not l will be
candidate for The nomination. | have
received q great deal OF announcement
thus far. Lewis county has already in
structed for me, and l expect support
from Harrison, Braxton and Gilmer
counties"
From what Col. Lewis says, II is plain
that he is an avowed candidate for Pen
dleton's shoes, although be would not
say so in so many words.
What is the outlook for Democratic
success in the First district in Novem-
ber?" asked the reporter.
From a thorough investigation OF
the matter in my own and adjoining
counties, my candid judgment is that
we have lost nothing. The more we
discuss the question Of tariff reform, the
more votes we make. The REGISTER
comes down there and is doing great
deal of good. Lewis county will poll as
large a Democratic vote as ever. The
same is true Of BraXton and Gilmer, In
which counties am familiar with the
situation"
Col. Lewis will return home to-day.
He Is en- uncompromising Democrat,
who has a number OF warm friends In
! this city. He has always been favor
able to Ohio county and Wheeling, in
political contests, and strongly sup
ported the movement TO change the
capital Of the State from Charleston to
Wheeling.
Colonel J. Napoleon Bonaparte Lit
tie, better known as "Po," OF Elm
Grove, is making red hot canvass as
an independent candidate for County
Com missioner. "Po" composed cam
paign song, which he had printed and
distributed throughout the district In
1t occur the lines:
"Who never from the battle run,
And stayed until the day was won"
Some person secured number OF the
songs and erased the word 'never"
from the first line quoted. This mate
rally altered the sense OF the verses,
and "Po" regarded it as reflection
upon his so!dierlY career. He accused
Lester Smith OF tampering with the
songs and rounHy denounced him. He
did this on several occasions aud Smith
finally swore out a warrant for his ar
rest. "Po" paid fine to the magistrate
and now there is bad blood in Triadel-
phia district.

BEGINNING the Day Alright.

You remember perhaps the story
of a Greek philosopher who had his
boy every morning awakened from
sleep by soft, sweet music, His pur-
pose was that the boy might begin
each day with thoughts of beauty
and goodness. The idea asadmira.
BILE. 1t is a glorious power we have
to set the thoughts and feelings of
u children for the days. 1t is SO
easy to make a bad start, and so hard
to get reset before we have lost the
beauty of three or four hours. 1t is
no light thing to have lived a half
day meanly. Then we have to take
account of the fact that a great many
influences are capable of setting the
day badly. The weather affects our
boys and girls as it does us, and they
