Washington's birthday in Wheeling
was celebrated by tho Order Of United
American Mechanics, tho junior order
and patrioticNlly inclined people, who
assembled in tho Fourth Street ". L.
church yesterday afternoon and Listen
cd TO an eloquent address by Rev. DR..
A. i. Riker, tho pastor OF tho Fourth
Street church. Tho church was ycll
filled, nearly cvory seat being occupied.
An unusual feature were several Amer
lean iags, thea Htndards Of tho local O.
U. A. NJ. lodges. The Mechanics. by
tito way, marched 10 tho church In a
body and occupied acats well to the
front.
The musical selections by tho choir
and audience wero i'll harmony with the
day and the occasion-pdtriotic.
DR.. Riker was listened to with close
attention throughout his address, which
was eloQuuntly and earnestly delivered.
Tho address WAS divided into three
parts, the first two being devoted to the
childhood, manhood, lie aud deeds OF
Washington, together with references
to the patriotic and unselish spirit that
animated tho forefGthers. Tho speaker
spoke of tho undaunted spirit which on.
abIed Washington to live through ths
dark period OF TITS at Valley Forge.
and remarked upon the Christian
phases OF the great leaders, character,
which wero apparent throughout the
great Revolutionary struggle and in fact
throughout his life.
The third topic OF the address was
tho preservation OF the blessings of
popular government and civil liberty
handed down by the founders of the
Republic. The work OF organizing the
government was so well done by our
forefathers that there is little or moth
ing to be done in tho present day. Tho
constitution Of tho United States Is TO
this day looked upon as perfect Our
forefathers never dreamed of the ma.
terial prosperity and advancement that
has come over this nation in one CEN
tury, and could scarcely believe.
Yet there are many things and re.
forms that the patriotic American OF
to-day can devote his energies to. There
is the vote OF the ballot; tho elections
should be purified and mado as clean
and pure as they were at the COM
mencement OF the century. Then there
are the public schools, in which lessons
OF patriotism should be incuIcated on
the youthful mind OF the country. In
referring to the Catholic schools, the
speaker said that the danger from this
source had. perhaps, been exaggerated,
but that tho people should bo uuceas-
Ingly on their guard.
The patriots are tho best men and the
best men are christians. The speaker
appealed to all patriots to become iden-
titled with Gods people, and spoke Of
tho iortitude tho religious spirit i'm.
parts; tho fortitude that gave US our iu-
dependence. Grant, tho hero OF tho
greatest modern conflict OF arms. COM
muncd with God on the battle field.
The immortal Lincoln was a deyout
christian, and was once seen with an
open Bible before him praying for the
wisdom to save disrupted nation. II
tho nation Is ever TO be saved. it will be
done by men inspired by the spirit of

greater than the surprise and wonder
OF his former business colleagues and

they learned that Erastus Wiman had
been the occupant OF a narrow cell at
the Tombs through the night,
The shock Of tho announcement Of
his arrest was increased when il became

Wiman, who is well known upon news-
paper row, asking him for some ex-
preston as to the charges made against

asked if Mr.. Wiman would care to see

mako any marked progress to-day ac-
cording to all reports and they will con.
tinue their efforts tomorrow and Satur.

ness. as the senate has adjourned until
Monday.
A movement against the bill as pre-.
parod by the subcommittee was more
clearly outlined to-day than ut any pre-
vious time. 1t. includes, senators es-
pecially interested in securing a duty on
sugar, coal and various manufactured
articles. These senators contend for
higher duty than the subcommittee is
willing 10 concede in tho interest OF
harmony and entire unity on the tariff
bill within the Democratic party.
The coal men say that fiity cents per
ton will not prevent tho importation OF
large quantities OF Nova Scotia coal to
New York and New England and vigor-
ousiy oppose any lower rate than this.
The New York senators, and Senator
Smith, OF New Jersey, and Bricc, OF
Ohio, find variety OF provisions in the
