We are glad to be able to announce
that Gen. Howard will in a few weeks
resume the publication Of his admirable
monographs on the war. His next
series viii take up Sherman's army
where he left it in the Last series, at the
occupation of Atlanta, and tell the
always interesting stories of the Marches
to the Sea and Through the Carolinas,
ending with graphic description Of
the Grand Review at Washington. These
articles will be copyrighted by The
NATIONAL TRIBUNE, and not appear in
any other paper. BE sure that your
subscription is promptly renewed, that
you may not miss one of these, as well
as other very interesting things We have
In store for our readers.

THEY are already beginning to talk
of Gen. Alger for Secretary of War
under the next Administration. Well,
President Mckinley, Reed, Morton,
Harrison, Allison, whichever he may
be, simply cannot find better man in
the whole country for that place. Gen.
Alger began his career by being one of
the very best of volunteer soldiers, and
he has continued it by being a broad
minded, progressive, eminently capable
citizen. A Cabinet made up of such
men would be alive and business-like
from start to finish.

HORRORS OF The COLUMBIA.
BY Mai.-Gen. o. 0. Howard.

Next week we shall publish an interesting
article under this title by Maj. Gen. O. o.
Howard. 1t gives the story of one Of the
Oldest and best scouts in the Far Northwest
of his experience with Lieut. tafterRard
Gen. Phil. II. Sheridan in a bloody Indian
war Of 40 years ago. 1t was the rude school
in which Gen. Sheridan learned the art of
war. and even at that early day he gave evil
3eBce Of the talent for fighting that after
ward distinguished him.

New York dudes were shaken to their In

Marlboro wore no gloves at his wedding. This
is now explained to be the highest breeding.
In the Catholic Church gloves are worn in tho
sanctuary by the Bishop alone. They are as
much part of his special insignia as the miter
and croser- 1t has ever been, therefore, a rule
Of ancient etiquet to approach the altar with
out gloves, when taking part in any eccesias-
teal function. The Church of England re-
tanned many of the old Catholic customs after
the Reformation.

LEVIED ON IN ENGINE
FOR NON-PAYMENT OF TAXES
BY THE P, G. & ST. L.
Railway Company-Sheriff Cowan,
Of Brooke County, Stopped a
Freight Train-The Railroad
Officials Notified.

About five o'clock yesterday after
noon Sheriff Cowan, of Brooke county,
stopped a freight train which was
passing through Wellsburg, over the
p, C. & st. L., and levied upon the
engine. Official notice was served up
on the train crew. The engineer,
fireman and conductor came down to
Wheeling on the next passenger train,
secured an engine, and brought the
freight down to Wheeling.
Sheriff Cowan and his deputies
cleared the track, and moved up to
Lazearville with the engine, returning
in a short time and claiming it to the
track. 1t now bears a placard on
which is an inscription warning all
persons to keep off the engine, and
signed by the Sheriff of Brooke county.
The engine is No. 115, one of the best
on the road, valued at about $4,000.
This rather unusual proceeding on
the part of the Brooke county author
tiles grows out of the neglect or re-
fusal of the railroad company to pay
taxes assessed upon the road and
bridge crossing the Ohio river at
Steubenville. West Virginia has Jur-
isdiction to low water mark on the
Ohio side of the river, and most of the
bridge is, therefore, in Brooke county.
II is understood that the railroad COM
pany has not paid taxes upon this
property for several years, the amount
with interest accrued, now aggregat-
ing $780, The Auditor of the state
has called the attention of the officials
of the road to the matter, but 1t ap-
pears that his communications have
been ignored.
1t was for this reason that Sheriff
Cowan Yesterday levied upon the en-
CINE. He then notified the officials OF
the railroad, stating that unless tne
taxes are paid by Wednesday OF next
week the engine will be sold.

COUNTY FAIR.


Neil Burgess faithful picture of
country life, THE County Fair" comes
to the Opera House next Wednesday,
matinee and evening. There is some
thing wonderfully attractive about
THE County Fair for some reason and
it does not have the effect of a play.
Every scene represented is so care
fully put on the stage as to details,
the actors in it take their parts so
naturally, coming and going with the
familiar ease of country neighbOrs,
and there is so little of the hurried
action of ordinary drama, that the
spectator who chooses to do so, can
readily imagine he is looking on real
ity itself.
GRIMES CELLAR DOOR.
The popular young star comedian,
James B. Mackie, will be at the Grand
Monday and Tuesday evenings. He
invites all to come and take a smile
with him on that occasion. You can
not refrain from it if you are there,
for who could gaze on his open, happy
countenance and desist from bursting
forth in peals of merriment. Mr..
Mackie, as Billy Grimes, is a wonder
fully funny comedian of many accom-
plishments. His piece is a continuous
succession of fun, frOlic and jollity
interspersed with all the new and pop
ular music of the day.
"NOBODY'S CLAIM"
The sensational melo-drama, "No-
body's Claim" in which Miss Sadie
Hasson is appearing at the Grand was
again greeted by a large audience last
night. Miss Hasson, as the heroine,
delighted the audience with her act
ing. The remainder of the company is
we'll balanced. The piece will be pre-
scented this afternoon at family mat
inee. and the engagement will close
tonight
ROSE COGHLAN.
Miss Rose Coghlan will appear at
the Grand Wednesday evening next,
and will give a very fine performance
of Sardous Diplomacy" The success
she has won in this play is not to be
questioned, as again and again the
power of her art in the difficult role of
Zicka thrills the audience. 1t is in
this part that her great artistic abil-
ity rises to supreme heights. Miss
Coghlan is supported by splendid
company. which includes such fine
actors as John T. Sullivan, Henry,
Jewett. Courtenay Thorpe. Charles
Coote. Hattie Russell, Beatrice More
