A GENERAL EXODUS FROM THIS CITY
YESTERDAY.
All the Railroads 0vsrrun With Passengers and
Extra Trains bad to Be Run-Many
to Go To-Day.

Yesterday was lively dav on the
Panhandle and the B. & o. railways
in the transportation Of passengers to
Pittsburg. Each Of the roads had about
all they could do. and the w. & L. E.
and the Ohio river lines also took q
part.
At o'clock yesterday morning, by
the B. & o., Holiday Post, twenty-five
strong, left the city. At "a. m. on the
same line there was a large train.
Caldwell Post, Of Moundsville, came up,
and their train was hitched to the ones
containing Stephens and Hancock posts
OF this city. There were also many
visitors besides the veterans on this
train, which left the depot with ten
coaches drawn by two engines. On all
the other passenger trains on the Il. IL
o. yesterday there were large numbers
en- route TO the encampment. In the
evening there arrived on the 3. 81 o.,
an elegant train OF twelve coaches from
Cincinnati This was special and
arrived In the city at 5:35 O'Clock. Very
many will take this line this morning at
5 o'clock as they can go to the encamp-
ment, see the great parade at $3.50
o'clock this morning and return this
evening.
The Panhandle did large business
Yesterday. About l, 400 passengers were
taken to Pitts0urg TO the Encampment.
Besides the regular trains on the o. r. +,
which were crowded, there were eight
extra cars on the different trains. The
o. r. brought about eight hundred per-

by the Panhandle, the largest train
being the one about balf-past o'clock.

hundred persons left the CITY, included
among them being the Women's Relief
Corps, of this city; on the noon train
about five hundred persons left the
depot, and on the other trains in the
afternoon and evening fully six hun
dred more.

Z. about forty persons arrived en- route
TO Pittsburg 10 the encampment, They
continued their journey by the B. &. o..
At $50 O'CLOCK yesterday evening a

NOT IDENTIFIED.

The Man Who Suicided Saturday at the
Huseman House Will BE Buried This
Morning.
1t was hoped that yesterday would
bring some clew to the Identification Of
the old man who committed suicide at
the Huseman House few days ago, but
it did not. The remains, which are
now at the undertaking rooms Of Frank
Schroeder, on South Chapline street,
will be buried this morning at the Pen
insua. 1t now looks like the case would
remain shrouded in mystery. 1t is very
seldom that a case comes before Coroner
Schultze which passes without identifi
cation, as in the last thirteen years OF
his incumbency there has been but two
similar cases. Mrs. Henri Bacher, Of
Thirty-fourth street, who thought that
the old man was relative Of hers, one
John Medln, of Sherrard, found yes
tsrday that she had been mistaken In
the idea. No word came from the
woman from Washington, Pa, who
thought that the dead man was one she
knew at that place.

A SOUTH SIDE ROBBERY.
Mrs. Ellen Nswman's Confectionery
Visited by Thieves

Mrs Ellen Newman's Confectionery
Visited by Thieves
About two o'clock yesterday morning,
it is thought, there was robbery at
the confectionery store Of Mrs. Ellen
Newman, at No. 2S17 Eoff street. Rob-
bers forced q way to the cellar kitchen
of the residence through window.
They went to the store and plllaged
things generally. Mrs. Newman
usually takes the money from the till,
but unfortunately Sunday night she
did not do this. The thieves broke
into the money drawer and took all
that was in it-S6. Before they went
they also took two boxes Of fine cigars.
The robbery was not discovered until
Yesterday morning. There is no de-
finite clue, but IL is thought that the
robbery was committed by some persons
VINO knew the premises well.

WHEELING CREEK,
A Mass of fostering Corruption From
Fulton to Its Mouth.


10 the Editor OF tbs Rsytsts='
SIa:-Some time ago the citizens Of
Wheeling received notice from the
Health officer to "clean up" This or
der Was generally obeyed. For weeks
Wheeling creek from Fulton to its
mouth has been a mass Of fostering
corruption, emitting stencil so foul
that travellers over Market and Main
street bridges hold their noses. In the
nsighborhood OF the creek there are
many cases Of scarlet fever and diph-
liberia. Is it any wonderP
In the name Of humanity, I insist that
the Health Officer or the County Board
of Health take charge Of this matter at
once. II our sanitary system is farce
and nothing can be done, let the people
know ii, so that they can substitute
something worth the annual expense.

Robert Downing, the favorite Amer
lean tragedian, who comes 10 the Opera
House on Monday night for 8 brief en-
gagement, has won his way TO the front
rank of heavy tragedians by the force
Of his native talent, In the face OF the
traditional prejudices Of those who
were educated in the older schools OF
the drama, for Mr.. Downing is an orig
inator, and not an imitstor. he belongs
TO the school OF to-day, and not TO any
OF the past. In his Interpretations OF
the great heroic characters there is
much that is new, and get he as surely
makes his points and carries his audi
ences with him as did the older and

GENERAL GoRDoN's LECTURE.
The Chronicle, Augusta, Ga, com-
menting upon General Gordon's famous
lecture on THE Last Days Of the Con-
federacy," says: Without a faint OF
dlsloyalty TO the cherished traditions OF
the South; without a word OF offence to
the cham plons of Northern opinion, he
kindles anew the lOv, OF every follower
OF Lee; he deeps the admiration OF
every Federal survivor for the military
genius and manly magnanimity OF
Grant; aud he awakens In both a lofty
patriotism and more consecrated deyo-
ton to this nation" which, in the i'm
mortal words OF Abraham Lincoln,
under God, shall have new birth OF
freedom, and that government OF the
people, by the people, for the people,
which shall not perish from EARTH
General Gordon will lecture at the
Opera House Thursday night
"a FLAG OF TRUCE"
The light attendance at the Opera
House last night was probably due TO
the fact that Wheeling theatre-goers
are not familiar with the merits OF "A
Flag Of Truce" the melodrama which
held the boards. That IL made de-
cided hit there can be no doubt, and the
audience tonight will probably be
something nearer what the play
and the company deserve. The
story is one OF deep human interest,
with just a sufficient intermixture OF
pathos and comedy TO make 1t the sd-
mirable production which II Is The
Rhode Island quarry scene 10 startling
piece OF stage realism. The company
is uniformly strong. Were 1t other
wise, the piece would De a failure, as
there are no star parts. The audience
lat night applauded the climax In each
act, TO the echo, and there were several
curtain calls.

The Phenomenon of Gray Hair.

Gray hair by no means shows a pre-
mature decay of the constitution. II
is a purely local phenomenon, and
may exist with great bodily vigor.
The spot where grayness begins differs
with the individual. AS rule q
woman's hair begins to change color
at the temples at five-and-thirty, but
severe attack of neuralgia will
whiten the hair over the part affected
in few weeks. A very severe illness
will also diminish the coloring matter.
Gray hair IN most cases is very becom-
ing, and, when really well dressed, has
a very distinguished appearancs-es'
pecially if the face and coloring of the
complexion be still young. The transi
ton stage is very trying, and nc

The Cold Bath.

The London Medical journal com.
bats the popular notion of the injuri-
GUS effects of cold bath taken when
one is overheated by exercise-an idea
falsifed by the experience of athletes
from the days of .the Greeks and Ro-
mans even until now, who find in this
procedure refreshing and stimula-
ting tonic after the exertion they have
recently undergone. Physiologically
speaking, too, according to this writer,
a cold plunge or douche taken imme-
diate after the physical effort, when
the skin is acting freely and there is a
sense of heat throughout the body, is
as rational as in the experience of the
athlete it is benefcial-is paralleled,
in fact, by the tonic eject produced
by the cold plunge when the skin is
actively secreting after a Turkish
bath, and finds its rationale doubtless
in stimulating the. nervous system, in
tie increase OF internal circulation,
and also Ii the renewal of activity to
the cutaneous circulation after the
momentary contraction of blood ves-
sells due to the cold. The popular be-
lief presumably rests on the injurious
effects which may be induced by the
bath in one who does not resort to it
immediately, but allows TINS for the
effects of fatigue to show themselves
on the muscles and nerves and for the
surface of the body to get cool; taken
then, the bath is more likely to de-

ity to internal indammation-a warm
bath rather than a cold one, at such q
time, being more suitable and more
