A hard-loolling tramp came into the
office of the charities of certain metro.

story of restitution. The minister In

the Charity Organization society. After
listening to his story he said: Il have

cheeks and thanked him for coming.
Then she talked volubly CT all the
places she had seen, and showed him
trophies of her triumphs, wreaths OF
gold, wreaths of silver and rare jewels,
and finally she asked him if he would
come out to supper with her and some
friends, and she mentioned some great
names. The old man declined with his
polite bow, and would have withdrawn,
but she insisted upon his staying and
seeing her to her coach. So presently
the impatient young men and the i'm
patient old men waiting outside had
the surprise of seeing their idol come
out in all her splendor leaning on the
arm of little gentleman in black,
who showed traces of snuff on the
ruffie of his shirt.
Through the crowd there the master
escorted the dancer to the stage door,
and through the crowd outside the
stage door he conducted her to her
coach. As he still declined to accom-
pany her she leaned out of the window,
waving aside, as she did so, the throng
of her admirers and the handsome gen.
tleman who was waiting to take his
place at her side.
Well" she said with a bright laugh,
you see you were wrong after all.
Say that you are sorry and will for
give you"
But the master shook his head.
Il do not think was wrong" be
said, very gravely You will never
make a dancer"
Then raising his hat politely no
turned and moved slowly down the

A NEW INDUSTRY
To be Established in MOundSVille BY
SeamOn & Son.
Cigars and Stogies to be Manufac-
tured by Machinery-Humphrey
Broom Plant Leased-WlH be In
Operation Within Month.

It will be remembered that a short
time ago the firm of Henry Seamon q
Co. asked for conference with COM
mittee OF the Cigarmakers' Union, rela-
tive to the intention of the firm to place
machines in its factory for the manu-
facture of stog:es. The privilege was
denied them by Garfield Assembly.
Yesterday the firm closed lease for
the plant of the Humphrey Broom
Works in Moundsville, and VIII equip
the building Immediately with machin-
cry. The building is a substantial three
story brick structure, situated between
the b. & o. and Ohio River Railroad
stations. 1t was used until recently by
the Humphrey Company, when they re-
moved to Baltimore, and afterwards
disposed of their eastern plant TO
broom trust. The location is admirable.
The shipping facilities are very good,
as the freight rate is the same as from
Wheeling.
Messrs. Seamon & Son last night out
lined their plans 10 a Register reporter.
Contracts have already been let TO Ris-
niger & Son, of Moundsville, and Hess
& Lennon, of this city, for the altera-
ton and Improvement OF the building.
They will commence work on Thurs-
day morning of this week, and II is eX-
pected that the plant will be in opera
ton not later than the middle Of jan
uary. Machinery of the latest improved
pattern has been purchased, and there
is an engine and boiler in the building
at present. The firm has made thor
ough investigation, and finds that there
is a wide market for machine ~" -
stogies. A few days ago it was stated
by one of the firm that number of
customers were lost because they could
not supply every grade of stog!es. The
present factory of the firm at No. 1l5O
Water street will be continued with the
present force, and none but union labor
will be employed. The juior member
of the firm, Mr.. A. J. Seamon, viii To-
cate permanently in Moundsville, and
the plant Will be in charge OF a gentle
man who Is familiar with all branches
Of the industry.
The Moundsville factory will start in
operation with about fiSty workmen, in
Guiding twenty experienced hands. 1t
Is the intention to educate girls in the
different branches of the work, and to
gradually increase the force until it
reaches about 100. and the capacity of
the plant at the end of a year will be
about 100000 stog.es day.

HEALTH MAEhRs.
The Quarantine oyer the River VIII MOI
Re Lifted.


BE Lifted.
The City Health Board held a speclal
meeting at o'clock yesterday arter-
noon for the purpose OF considering the
situation in Bridgeport and Martin rs
Ferry and taking such action as might
be necessary in the premises. Healtn
Officer JepsOn stated he had confer
ence with DR.. Probst, Secretary OF the
Ohio State Board of Health, and that ne
had visited the over-Jhe-river towns ana
had consulted with the heath autnorl-
ties there as to the exact situation. he
reported thirty houses quarant.ned IN
Martins Ferry, containing fifty-one
cases in various stages, from
new TO we'll. In Bridgeport ne
reported twelve houses quaran-
tined, containing twenty tour
cases, in all stages, six OF them We'll.
Near West Wheeling there was one pat
lent about well, .and m the township
five cases. This, it must be remember
ed. Is the gross number of cases occur
ring since SHE outbreak in the ONO
towns. and includes, therefore, patients
who have been well for some days, but
whose houses are still under quarantine,
it being the policy ever there 10 quar-
antine an infected 7nIse for fourteen
DAYS after the patient IS well, as a pre-
cautionary measure, and cases are
counted on the list until the quarantine
of such houses IS raised.
One or two members of the commit
tee thought it would be safe to raise the
Bridgeport quarantine as the disease
over there appears TO be well managed,
hut this was met by the statement unat
if the Wheeling quarantine against
Bridgeport was lifted Bellaire would at
once quarantine against this city, 10 save
herself from Bridgeport, and that IKE
action would probably be taken by other
Ohio towns, with the possible result OF
starting another scare as to the Meath
of this community, with its inev.taDle
bad result upon all business interests.
After a long discussion Of all phase of
the question a resolution to lift the
Bridgeport quarantine was lost by de-
cisive vote.
The question of permits then came
up, through the health officer desiring
to knew what to do, and
the sentiment was very strong
in favor or making the QUARANTINE
tight, except in exceptional cases. A
motion to permit Wheeling employees or
the Aetna Standard and Crystal works
to spend Christmas at their homes in
the city was lost, and the entire question
of passes was put into the hands of
Health Officer Jepson, Chairman Stath-
ers and the chief of police, the actual
signatures Of all three being necessary
on pass to make it go"
One permit was issued to a man,whose
sister was dead, but IL will take some
such situation as that to extract pass
from the officials, at least for the pres
ent.
There only being 500 to the credit
OF the health department, the bills were
laid over until the first Of the year,
when money will be available.
There were no newScases over the
river yesterday.

ganizatiOn to Move Its Room.
The local organization of the w. c.
T. U. are contemplating moving from
their present rooms on Main street TO
better and more commodious quarters.
There is some disposition shown look
ing toward the formation of some plan
that would enable the organization in
this city to have erected for its purposes
building, modelled somewhat after sim
liar structures in other cities. There
can be no doubt but what such a mod
ern building could be erected to advan-
tage in this city, not only for the use
n part of the w. c. T. T., but the
room. it is believed in such a modern
building or block could be rented to
advantage as Offices and storerooms.
1t would not be surprising if during
next year such arrangements would be
made and carried out that Wheeling
would have a modern temple for the
use Of this charity and religious work,
and also an additional Office and store
room block and building.

Martinsburg, w. Va, December %
The colored brethren of the Free Will
Baptist Church are having some disturb
ance over their pastor, Rev. B. w.
Kirk. "A few weeks ago Kirk an
announced his intention to resign, and
a good portion OF the members went to

services. The knob was then taken off,
but a new knob was gotten and services
were held in the main room last night.
The matter will go into court.
