GLASS WORKERS IN DEMAND.
Good Prospects for steady and Profitable
Run.


The indications are that the glass
business will experience an ACTIVITY
and prosperity the coming fall never
before eGualled in the history OF the
trade. Stocks are nearly all exhausted
and with a general revival in all KINDS
of business both the workers and manu-
facturers are full of hope.
Yesterday w. J. Smith, President OF
the American Flint Glass WORKERS
Union. received word from Ball Bros"
who operate a large plant at Muncie'
Ind. that the works would resume I'M
mediately with double force OF men.
He was also asked to provide a number
of skilled workers, and il is probable
that some of the locked-out men OF
the South Side will leave for that place
in few days.
The Bryce. Higbee & Co. plant at
Homestead resumed last night. The
300 employees went TO work with the
prospects of steady employment. The
firm. it is said, has orders enough to
keep the works busy until this time
next year
Since the scales of the flint glass
workers have been adjusted, the ofiic-
ials have used their efforts toward or
ganization. Within the last few days
four non-union factories have been or
gained. one'of them being the North
wood Glass Company, at Ellwood City,
that has been non-union for number
of years. The names of the other
plants will not be divulged by the
officials at present. 1t is expected to
bring a number of others into the union
fold within few weeks.-Pittsburg

FINE SPEED CONTESTS
To Take Place at the West Virginia
State Fair
Next Week-The Entries in all the
Races More Numerous Than Ever
BefOre-Some Of the Other At.
tractive Features of the Fair.

Advices received at the headquarters
OF the State Fair and Exposition from
the country contributory TO Wheeling
indicate a larger attendance than ever
this year. There are several reasons
for this. but the two main ones are the
enlarged grounds and Improvements
and the big increase in the premiums
offered There is no discount on the
hberality OF the management this sea-
son. and that it is going 10 bear fruit
there is no doubt whatever.
The West Virginia State Fair has al
ways been noted for its stock exhibit,
riyaling many of the distinctively cat
tie and horse shows of the country.
This year, with more room and con-
veniences. this section Of the Fair will
be greater in variety and the number
of exhibits that was ever witnessed at
any exhibition west of the Alleghenies.
The poultry show. which has been
one of the most attractive features the
Association has provided for, will be
better than ever on account of the i'm
proved quarters for this exhibit.
This afternoon the superintendent
OF the horticulture, Horticulture, vege-
table and grain. textile, art and chill
dren's departments will be on the
grounds to attend 10 the wants OF all
exhibitors
The pleasing innovation this season
will be the performances or Prof.
Nash's famous running combination
and Butchers equestrian gymnasium,
which will appear on the track every
day. commencing Tuesday. On Mon
day. the opening day of the Fair, the
bicycle races will take place, and L IS
certain that these events Will by no
means be the least interesting OF the
weeks magnificent attractions. his
city should be proud OF the State Fair,
and likewise grateful for what II has
done for Wheeling II has advertised
the town in q way no other one thing
has done. On City Day Thursday,
the citizens should reciprocate by max
ing ARRANGEMENTS to turn out Ell masse,
and make that day the record breaking
in attendance in the history OF the
State Fair. Let a little personal pride
conspire TO accomplish this fact
The entries for the different races
this year are more numerous than ever
before. owing to the excellent condi-
tious for racing. and the attractive
purses hung up by the Association.
The racing viii this year be one of the
most attractive features of the Fair, as
the following list of entries will show:

A ROW IN CAMP.

To the Editor of the Register.
1t seems funny that the A. p A. fell
lows should fall out among themselves
and air their grievances in the nasty
Fourteenth ST a. p. A concern. "
What can the matter be that they have
thus turned tail and run from their
friends? It is a shabby way of treating
the gentlemen who have stuck by them
through thick and thin, and must be
regarded with disgust by all parties.
The fact is the thing is unpopular ana
is not tolerated by any respectable num-
Der of plain-minded people.

To the Editor of the Register.
The organ" as You are pleased to
call the Intelligencer, is not an organ.
Although posing as the friend of all
candidates, it takes the first Opportu-
nifty TO smits the son of the old and re-
spected patron of that sheet, one who
was ever ready to contribute to the
campaign fund of the Republican party
at a time when it needed funds. and
one who in times past was always a l.b-
eral patron of that sheet which seeks
10 defeat his son. If this is what you
call an organ I hope We shall soon
have another which will treat all Re-
publicans with FAIRNESS.

FAIR RIDER In BLOOMERS
Mysterious Brunette on Spirited
Horse Startled Capitol Hill.
She Came Out In the Cleaning and
Was UnmindfuI OF the Crowd
and the Comment.

A pretty brunette, in brown bloomers,
who rode spirited bay steed like a Val
kyTie, was the sensation OF an hour last
evening in Southeast Washington. The
fair equestrienne was as much mystery
as a sensation.
No one knew her name or whence she
came. She rose up in the cleaning and
rode up and down pennsylvania avenue
between Second and Eighth streets about
eight times and then took three fliersup and
down Second street as far as EaS Capitol
street.
This lady was to all appearances about
twenty five years of age, and could give
the horse-riding Empress of Austria points
i'll the management and grace of sitting a
horse
The bIoomeI lady would possibly have
shocked the HapsbuIg Amazon, for she
disposed heI legs on both sides OF the
steed, and made altogether brave and
gallant show"
Such an exhibition did not fail to draw
an immense crowd. i'll which were numerous
ladies, many of whom sneeIed at the
Iider and her costume
1T is shocking" said one; altogether
disgusting" said another, but the men
were gallant and appreciative. They
declared she was a blooming success.
But the fifteen or more hundred in
auisitive people could not discover her
identity, mol did the police know anything
about her, She was entirely unmindful
so far as could be observed, of the admira-
ton OF the men and the criticism of the
women She came out to Tide in boomers
and she rode, rode well, rode long, and
then vanished like meteor.
