One is accustomed to hear bull fight
ing denounced as both cruel and cow
ardly-cruel because Of the suffering it
inflicts upon animals, cowardly because
the risk run by the bullfghter is infn-
itesimal The first charge is absolutely
true, SO far at least as concerns the un-
fortunate horses The second is equally
false, as the tragic death Of Espartero
should serve to teach the amateur crit
les who for the most part have never
seen the spectacle they denounce in such
unqualified terms

the original form Of the sport they bor-
rowed from the Moors-that is to say,

by professional pioadores, but of valua.
BILE horses, with "owners up" who
would, Of course, exercise their skill in
trying to save their mounts-there
would be little to be said against bull
fighting on the score of cruelty.
As to the current sneers at the cow

The Morrison tariff bill which
sought to reduce tariff, was measure
in the right direction, but unfortu-
nately the Democrats had the power
to make it a Law. After this came
what was known as the Mills bill,
which went further in the direction
of tariff reform than the Morrison
bill, but failed of enactment for the
same reason as the other, the Senate
being Republican. The present Sen
ate bill goes much further IN the
tariff reduction than either of the
other two bills, and fortunately, the
Democratic party had the power to
make it a law, although the majority
in the Senate was very close, forty
three Democratic votes being neces.

impregnated with the heresy OF pro-
lection, at least SO far as their local.
ties we're concerned. and hence the
failure to get all the reductions that
were desirable. But the bill is q
good one, so far as it goes and the
Democracy should be well satisfied
with it. 1t makes an average reduc-
ton of thirty per cent from the Nc

C. F. Sisler, better known as ICY" I"

Yesterday afternoon he was up as
usual at the Boodv. He complained of
not feeling well, but sat around talk.
ing with the boys.
After supper he got a cigar and
seemed 20 be enjoying life In his
usual quiet, but hearty way.
1t was about $50 when some one
called attention to "Cy's" attitude as
he half sat, half reclined in a chair
near the general reading room.
He was unable to speak or move.
DR.. Rees was hurriedly called and pro-
nounced il case Of complete paraly-
sis. The victim was taken to his
room, but DIR. Rees thought it better
to have him removed to where he
could receive the care that the criti-
cal condition required. So he was
, taken to the Toledo hospital, He re-
| tained consciousness, but was totally
paralyzed, being unable to move a
muscle or utter sound.
His home is in Peru, Ind, and his
relatives we're notified of his condi-
ton last night, arriving here this
morning.
No railroader entering Toledo is
better known or better liked than
ICY" Sisler. He is about 45years OF
age and has made his headquarters at
the Boody for years.
Inquiry at the hospital this morn
ing found Mr., Sisler resting some
what easier, but still unable to move.

a Brilliant Performance Mt the Opera
House Before an Appreciativo Au-
dicncec
Before a splendid audience in the
Opera House last night the Conrled
opera company gave zeller's sparkling
comic opera, "Der Vogelhaendler," in
the original. The English version OF
this opera is known US "Ihe Tyrolean."
Last nights performance was given by a
company OF artists, from the chorus up.
The chorus, by the way,was strong in
numbers and in artistic effect. We do
not recall when so good one has been
heard before in Wheeling. For that
matter it has certainly been very long
time since Wheeling has had so meri-
torious a presentation OF opera. The
highest praise is due to Miss Lucie
Verdier (Christel) and to Mr.. Carl Schulz
(1dam, the bird fancier), but Miss
Charlotte Fischer Princes Aiarie), Miss
Kitty Wicsinger Baroness Adelaide), Mr..
Max Month Count Stanislaus) and Mr..
Leopold Deutsch (Baron lVeps) follow
cloaely.
It seemed as though the audience
could not have enough of Miss 'Verdier
and Mr. Schulz, both of whom are fine
actors as we'll as accomplished singers.
Mr.. AIenti's tenor, clear high and
strong, won hearty applause,ss although
the part does not allow him to be
heard enough. The applause through
the evening was as we'll merited as it
was liberal.

results"
The well known Boston physician and
surgeon, DIR. a. w. x. Newton, whose.
portrait is given above, states very en-
phatically that this compound IS the
most reliable tonic and strength-glver
he has found for the peculiar and dan
gerous condition of the sys hem that tol-
lows the grip. "Paine's Celery Com
pound" he writes sis not a patent med :.
icine, and it must not be contounded
with the ordinary nervines, bltters or
sarsaparillas- It is as much superior to
them in formula and results as the dla-
mond is superior to glass. it p.:rifies
tho blood, strengthens the ner":s, and
is natures food for the brain.
81 had some trouble myself, he
writes, "from blood poisoning, received
in very delicate surgical operation.
The formula of Paine's Celery Com
pound led me to try it, and was much
pleased with the result prescribe 1T

down. For this condition pad for dis

common and dangerous symptoms, with
invariably satisfactory results" It is
the best possible remedy to keep up

Gus Colurabns.

Two of the most exciting and inter
esting games of the Wheeling Bowling
Leagues championship season We're
played last night at the Wheeling Park
alleys between the Columbia team and
The Bowlers. The attendance Of spec
tators was also very large, every other
team in the league being represented
by one or more players. The result
places the Columbia team on tie with
the Intelligence- and Wheeling Bowling
club for first place in the race for the
pennant. The best all around work
Lass evening was done by the Bowlers,
who took the first game with ease and
had their opponents guessing for the
second contest. Unfortunately, from
the Bowlers' standpoint, they broke
one of the three last frames and lost by
~ pins.
In the first game Sam Hazlett, who is
really one Of the best bowlers in the
city, made 255 and fully retrieved him
self. Heretofore he had been exceed
.ingly unfortunate. List had the next
best score for his side, and Bishop led
for the Columbias with 24S, followed by
Seibert with 240. Tho score in detail:
