ISOLATION taken from him last night
about 9 o'clock by Joseph Fowler, a

aged, and some months ago the Circuit
Court appointed Fowler and Turner

for thirty years. Roush refused 10 set
tie or return the books TO the new mem

him SIS per year for his services for
thirty years. A meeting was called
and Roush with the books and
records invited to attend. He did so,

books be was set upon by Fowler and
Turner and the books forcibly wrenched
from him. He made no outcry, but will
ask the court TO set the matter Alright.
He has been q resident OF this city for
forty years and has held many impor-
taut positions OF trust. Fowler and
Turner, the new member charge Roush
with appropriating large sum OF mon
ey for which he is willing TO give no
account. Roush says he was set upon
by his assailants in wild western style,
and will prove IL at the court. The
sympathy of the community is with
Roush, whose honesty has never been
questioned.

SCOTTISH RITE.
The most interesting and important
Masonic event OF the past week was
the formation of West Virginia Consis-
tory OF the Ancient and accepted Scot
fish Rite OF the Southern Jurisdiction
OF the United States, and the installa-
tion OF the officers. The ceremonies were
had at the Masonic Temple on Wed nes-
day evening, and were followed by a
pleasant banquet at the Hotel Windsor.
The ritual for the occasion was fully
rendered, and its exceeding beauty i'm
pressed all present The lights were
kinded by taper lit by the sun during
the day, and kept burning for the pur-
pose, and as each Of the ceremonial
lights olazed up appropriate invocation
was made. The Consistory of West
Virginia completes the list OF Scot
fish Rite bodies 10 the State. A
Lodge of Perfection and a Chap
ter Of Rose Croix were established
here in 1876; Council Of Kadosh was
instituted last year, and new the Con-
sistory, whose charter was authorized
by the Supreme Council last October,
comes into being as the Growing body OF
the Rite. II is now possible for the
Free Mason OF the Scottish Rite to
oil . ba M r
TO the thirty-second inclusive, in regu-
larly chartered and organized bodies
here in Wheeling.
A great.deal OF interest in the cere-
monial and teachings OF the Scottish
Rite has been freshly awakened here,
and the indications are that the doors
will be thronged by acceptable candi-
dates as soon as more moderate weather
permits com f0rtable work.
After the banquet at the Windsor, and
while coffee and cigars formed the
course upon the menu number
OF interesting and chatty speeches
were had. Hon. O. s. Long,
OF the thirty-third degree, who is Grand
Chancellor of the Supreme Council for
the southern jurisdiction, and who con-
Quoted the ceremonies Of constitution
and installation. gave brief and inter
esting history of the several rites OF
masonry, and showed that the Scottish
Rite fully merits its title Of "Ancient
and Accepted" The occasion will be
long remembered with much pleasure
by all who were present.
Bro. Il. NJ. Darrah, the genial Secre-
tary of the several bodies OF the Rite.
informs US that the bodies will have va
cation till September, but il any of the
bodies shall have meetings between
now and then the members will receive
personal notice Of the same.
The beautiful 32nd degree flower de-
sign. placed on the banquet table last
Wednesday evening, was presented to
o. 5. Long, as a token OF love and to
commemorate the important event
which brought him with the brethren
together on the happy occasion.
Albert Pike Preceptory met on Tues
day evening and conferred the orders on
candidates, the work being rendered by
the officers splendldly.

for a transfer, the conductor will punch
his face. The road has adopted new

TR lining A DOG TEAM.
How Canadians and E'quim sux Manage
Their Canine Courssrs.

How Canadians and Etquim sux Manage
Their Canine Courssrs.
Mr. Cameron in his talk with a re-
porter told of the dogs that are used
for slcdging during the winter N thc
Northwest territories of Canada.
Six or eight dogs are used on each
sledge. They are fed only once in
twenty-four hours, and that is in the
morning before the start is made, and
after the dogs are in harness. At
that Tina about four pounds OF frozen
fish are given to them. Everything
must be in readiness for the start
ami the men must look to it that they
are at hand to.jump on the sic lges
for at the very instant that the last
morsal of fish disappears the dogs are
of at break-neck speed. Strange as
it NAV seem, the drivers do not dare to
feed the dogs unless they are in har-
ness. Otherwise they would scatter,
and nothing more would be seen OF
them. They are driven with one long
rein attached to the ea1er.
A whip with very short handle and
a very long lash is used to urge then
on. though in most cases they need nc
urging, for they seem to feel that the
faster they go the quicker they will
come to the post where food and
warmth and a lazy life await them
They travel often as far as ninety
miles day.

'It is somewhat curious thing, :"
observed a commercial traveller. THAT
even the most fastidious individual
who will reject with indignation a
tumbler that had been used by another
diner at hotel, will not hesitate to
drink out of a cup or glass on a rail
way train, although it may have been
used by thousands of persons, many
of them of not over cleanly habits.
The same thing applies to the per-
sons who use the ice-water coolers in
public buildings or hotels. Why then
should SO much fastidiousness be dis
played by persons at a hotel or other
table as to the use of tumbler from
which a single person had previously
drank?"

A story is told of two Irishmen who
were caught one night in the loft of a

side foremost with an effect which,
when he recovered his equilibrium af-
ter the jump, excited his profound

RICH FAMILIES IN AMERICA.

AstOrs and the VanderbiIts Control Be
tween Them Hundreds of MI Hons
A careful estimate of the wealth OF
the Astors puts it at 5000. .OoOO, 900, and
this makes the family the richest in
the United States. What is more, the
wealth of the Astors is in such shape
that it cannot but increase, for the
reason that it is gilt-edged New York
City real estate, some of which has
within the past ten years increased in
value 700 per cent and is still appreci-
ating. The policy of the Astors has
always been to buy real estate on the
lines along which New York City is
now extending and hold it for rise.
rarely selling, however, but building
aud renting instead. The result il
that the Astor propert es are in valua-
bic lands, in brick, iron, stone and
mortar instead of in tiuctuating stock
and bonds, the fixed value of which Is
always uncertain. AS a family the
Vanderbilts stand next to the Astors
in the matter of wealth, and then
riches must be considered in thl
aggregate and in common. since then
individual fortunes are pooled, so tC
speak. You will often see Cornelius
Vanderbilt, the present head of the
house, quoted as being worth $780,,
OG0, 900. OF course he is not wortl
any such am cunt Cornelius has mOst
of theVanderbilt millions, but thost
who know say that he is personally
not worth above $50, ,O05, 900, if a.
much.
